The United States says it is halting comprehensive sanctions on Syria for the next 180 days, following a high-stakes meeting between President Donald Trump and Syrian President Ahmed al-Sharaa, someone the U.S. once branded a “terrorist,” at the White House on Monday.

The Treasury Department said that Trump “is delivering on his commitment to give Syria ‘a chance at greatness'” by suspending the Caesar Act, legislation that upholds tough sanctions against Syria which were imposed over alleged widespread human rights abuses by the former regime of Bashar al-Assad.

The United States announced sanctions against Russian oil companies on Wednesday (local time) as a result of “Russia’s lack of serious commitment to a peace process to end the war in Ukraine”.

The sanctions were announced by United States President Donald Trump as his frustration with Russia mounts for not stopping the war in Ukraine, something Trump is adamant on achieving.

Trump shared a post on Truth Social on Wednesday where he posted a statement by the US department of the treasury with the title, ‘Treasury sanctions major Russian oil companies, calls on Moscow to immediately agree to ceasefire’.

The three countries, known as the E3, had met with Iranian officials on Tuesday in a final attempt to revive stalled nuclear talks.

At a previous meeting in Istanbul in July, their foreign ministers had signalled a willingness to extend a UN sanctions deadline if Tehran resumed cooperation with the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) and restarted indirect talks with Washington before the end of August.

“We need to cut this source of revenues,” she added.

The measures aimed to put pressure on Moscow to end Russia’s war in Ukraine include a proposal to lower the current $60 oil price cap to $45 per barrel and bans use of the Nord Stream pipelines between Germany and Russia.

Starmer spoke from Albania’s capital, Tirana, where leaders of dozens of European countries were gathered for the European Political Community, or EPC, summit attended by Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy.

“We just had a meeting with President Zelenskyy and then a phone call with President Trump to discuss the developments in the negotiations today, and the Russian position is clearly unacceptable,” Starmer told reporters.

“As a result of that meeting with President Zelenskyy, under discussion with President Trump, we are now closely aligning and coordinating our responses and will continue to do so,” he said.

Can you believe it? Trump is running roughshod over all our tormentors. He’s going to change our whole outlook. The left has had control and screwed everything up, almost ruining the greatest country on earth. But now, at least a respite if not a total turnaround. 

They think they can do battle on the legal front, with Judges going far beyond their jurisdiction to stop deportations. Who doesn’t like deportations? It seems everybody is getting on board, especially the legal aliens. I hope all those tattooed up criminals are guilty, at least they’re not citizens. We all feel bad watching those guys being frog-marched into prison, but we don’t need them roaming the streets. Judge Boasberg thinks he has jurisdiction over policy? We’ll see.

We don’t know exactly what’s going on with the war in Ukraine. European leaders posed for pictures, and talked like they’re going to send a bunch of troops to Ukraine’s aid. That better not happen. Talk is cheap. What are they going to do, start WWIII? Sometimes you wonder. But the little guy keeps on campaigning for war, giving reasons why it shouldn’t stop. Or if it does stop, he’s got plenty of demands. That’s going to be the hitch, everybody wants to come out better than they were. In this case, all parties are going to have to accept things they’d rather not.

I’ve already written about Zelensky at the White House. He thought he’d act tough, but embarrassed himself and got ejected. Maybe things have cooled off somewhat. The media acts like Trump is in league with Putin. Some are even suggesting that Putin is in charge. I don’t think so.

If anybody knows how to cut things down to size, it’s Elon Musk. Whole departments are going to get canceled, and some already have been. They had their chance, and almost ruined everything. The TV’s been lying to us and nobody called them out. They acted like we were crazy for not believing in global warming or that boys could change and be girls. Hopefully Al Gore is retired with his millions, and we won’t have to listen to this nonsense much longer. Notice, some TV commercials were already in the can and scheduled to be aired. With any luck we are near the end of that phase.

Trump has given Israel the green light and nobody knows how the whole thing ends, or if it does. The Houthis are blocking shipping lanes and that has got to stop! What do they think is going to happen? 

To read the mainstream, you’d never know that America is back. They’re in search of scandal, and they’re not afraid to speculate. A quick look at the news tells you all you need to know. They’ve got Trump in their sights and they’ll get him if it’s the last thing they do. It’s gotten humorous.

There’s been talk of a whole Sharia neighborhood in Texas, with a mosque and everything. That’s not going to happen. The Texas officials are on it.

Never have so many executive orders been signed. But the U. S. needs an overhaul and we’re in the process of getting one. Praise God!
