WASHINGTON - U.S. Republican Senator Lindsey Graham said on Monday that he had spoken with House Speaker Nancy Pelosi about Turkey’s offensive in northern Syria, and that she supported bipartisan sanctions against Ankara. Graham is usually a vocal supporter of U.S. President Donald Trump, but he has repeatedly publicly condemned Trump’s decision to withdraw U.S. troops from northeastern Syria, which was quickly followed by a Turkish invasion to drive out Kurdish-led forces who have long been Washington’s allies.

“Just spoke with Speaker Pelosi regarding congressional action on Turkey’s incursion of Syria,” Graham tweeted. “Speaker supports bipartisan sanctions against Turkey’s outrages in Syria. She also believes we should show support for Kurdish allies and is concerned about the reemergence of ISIS.”

abdbozkurt They are all not better than Trump. They are part of this betrayal.

We need bipartisan sanctions on the White House.

Too little too late?!?

I offer you somethin. In my history there is 'pride'. So if you mention about my 'great country' shouldn't use 'bi' stuff. We have a government and a president. Thank you.

What has Trump achieved with his betrayal of the Kurds, here's what !!!!!!!

I want the the Kurdish allies protected more than the sanctions. The death toll of civilians is a heinous crime.

White House: Trump ‘strongly condemns’ parody video of him shooting critics and media in churchThe White House on Monday tried to distance itself from a violent parody video that was shown at a pro-Trump conference at the president’s Doral Miami resort over the weekend. Was it supposed to include use of NOVACHUK? Bullshit! The creator of that video has been a guest of the White House in the past. Trump loves his “work”. And it’s about time the media start giving Logan Cook the appropriate credit for his work by applying his name to it.
