RT by @mikenov: NEW: Bipartisan pushback is already forming against Trump’s Russian diesel deal. Rep. Fitzpatrick announced legislation to block all Russian oil purchases. The “Ronald Reagan Peace Through Strength Act” will be forced to the House floor via discharge petition, Fitzpatrick says, and “will pass overwhelmingly.” The bill directly targets Trump’s 9 October deal with Putin for 300K+ tons of Russian diesel. Trump signed the Graham Act just three weeks ago authorizing 500% tariffs on Russian goods, and is now easing sanctions on Russian diesel ahead of the November midterms with prices at ~$6.28/gal.
