Tough Action on Russia, at Last, but More Is Needed

New York Times explains that by expelling scores of Russians from the United States and 21 other countries President Donald Trump and allied leaders have imposed the most significant punishment yet on Russia and its leader, Vladimir Putin. On March 26, 2018 editorial By The Editorial Board discusses “it’s a move that is well overdue for Mr. Trump” Mr. Trump may finally have to deal with the threat Mr. Putin poses to the United States and its allies. The Expulsion orders retaliate specifically for the poisoning of a former Russian spy, Sergei Skripal. As for the Americans it includes 12 identified people as Russian intelligence officers at the U.S Nations in New York and 48 and the Russian Embassy! Mr. Putin almost will retaliate continuing a downward spiral in Russian- American relations unheard of since the Cold War.

That will further disrupt the ability of the two nations to work on serious challenges. Like ending the war in Syria and defusing a new nuclear arms race. As it gets more difficult for Mr. President Trump to remain passive in the face of Russian aggression not so long ago on March 15, trump imposed sanctions on a series of Russian organizations. Even know our President is trying to distance himself from the expulsion order issued in his name?

The United States and its allies must stay United with each other Mr. Putin’s nefarious activities and holding him accounted. Russians should pay the price for using such type of weapons but Mr. Trump hasn’t done much to help. Trump orders a comprehensive campaign to repair weaknesses in the American electoral system and prevent tampering in future elections.

NRA sues Florida over gun law that rises minimum age to buy firearms.

Recent news for Florida on March 9, 2018 CBS NEWS reports another gun control issue NRA sues Florida over gun Law. Rick Scott has signed saying it violates the Second Amendment by rising the age to buy guns from 18-21. The new measures come in the wake of the February 14, shooting at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School in Parkland, Florida that killed 17 people. Its crazy how these stories keep growing all over the world one after another shooting at schools the one place where students should be safe is becoming a dangerous zone.  Providing teachers with guns is in my opinion the worst they can do. Schools should be gun free area no matter the gun control why would any student or teacher need a gun in campus. This is a topic that will continue to grow as they keep passing the law.

Andrew Pollack father of Meadow Pollack student that was killed at school gives the best advice we should all work on he says besides the gun control being an issue we should all get together and march with each other to make schools safe again. No parent should fear dropping of his or her kid at school. Lawyers for the NRA want a federal judge to block the new age restriction from taking effect. The new legislation raises the minimum age to buy rifles from 18 to 21.
