3:33Now PlayingRex Tillerson may quit now that he can’t help Exxon get their Russian oil deal. Cenk Uygur and Ana Kasparian, hosts of The Young Turks, break it down. Tell us what you think in the comment section below.
"President Trump begrudgingly signed into law new sanctions against Russia that had been approved by overwhelming majorities in Congress. The move is in contrast to his frequently stated desire to improve relations with the country. The president also issued a signing statement on Wednesday in which he declared that the legislation has a number of what he deems to be "unconstitutional provisions."
The sanctions bill targets Russia's mining and oil industry and aims to punish the country for interfering in the 2016 U.S. presidential election as well for its military aggression in Ukraine. In announcing that he had signed the bill, Trump made his most definitive statement yet about Russia's interference in the election.
"I also support making clear that America will not tolerate interference in our democratic process and that we will side with our allies and friends against Russian subversion and destabilization," he said.”*
