I wish the admin would have announced more sanctions beyond those they’ve imposed, including Magnitsky Act and seized US diplo property. But they are following the letter of the law, putting potential targets on notice and providing a list to Congress. This is reckless rhetoric.https://twitter.com/clairecmc/status/958312973260517376 …

They shouldn't be entirely in the weeds. Admin has been issuing public guidance statements for some time.http://www.atlanticcouncil.org/blogs/new-atlanticist/trump-administration-s-significant-action-on-russia-sanctions …

Whether they have or not, the law requires a formal report submitted to Congress, which they just did. Then the law does not allow the president to "waive or otherwise limit" sanctions while Congress reviews the report. The executive branch is doing so anyway.

I struggle to see this waiving or limitations on existing sanctions. You're the only person I've seen raise this objection. The law cannot refer to new sanctions that it also provides a 120 day grace period for.

In my discussions with him, I've never seen him react negatively to polite disagreement.
