Thune blocks Johnson's request to advance Georgia sanctions bill

[Yo_Mama_Been_Loggin]

Senate Majority Leader John Thune (R-S.D.) turned down a personal request by House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-La) last month to advance a sanctions bill targeting pro-Russian, antidemocratic officials in the country of Georgia, according to two congressional aides.

Johnson wanted to include the bill, called the Megobari Act, in the National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA), the annual must-pass Defense bill. The bill, which has broad support in the House and Senate, would require the president to impose sanctions on people undermining Georgia’s security or stability.

Thune’s decision to reject Johnson’s request demonstrates another crack in a relationship that is increasingly fractured. It was the second time in three months that Thune had blocked a bipartisan request to include Megobari in the NDAA.

Johnson’s last-minute intervention on behalf of the bill came as a surprise to those following the NDAA process closely.

Is Thune a Putin patsy?

1. Thune was one of the "gang of eight" Congress-critters

(all GOPhers--7 senators, 1 rep) who partied with Putin in 2018 on July 4th.) I would almost bet he is a Putin patsy. The treason is strong in this one.
