...and our security agency(s?) are saying this will put Americas security at risk..
Why would it? Oh that’s right! Because the Saudis DID IT!

Holy shit, some testicles in the Senate. What gives? They know Trump is coming. Trump for President.
To: RummyChick
I don’t care. Where was the Senate and House when it was time to override Obamanations other 12 vetoes. They may have meant something to the general public.

Just cast a little shadow on this, a reminder:
The government will do ANYTHING that benefits trial lawyers. Anything.

Let’s see if the Saudi’s carry through their threats.
Nobody cares if they sell their treasuries (caveat: as long as they don’t buy gold with them). The ESF can buy the lot.
But if the petrodollar breaks up then every other country on earth is going to divest a significant fraction of their dollar reserves. And there’s nothing the ESF can do about that. They can’t print dollars to buy dollars.

I would not get too excited, the Supremes will probably rescue Obama on this one ...

Some things cross party lines. This was one of them.
We shouldn’t expect a president who is a member of the Muslim Brotherhood to see the light on this.
LOL

"Should have been happening at least once a month, every month since the 2012 midterms." Excellent point !
To: pepsionice
Whenever you have this kind of near-unanimity in a House and Senate vote, you can be sure it's probably the dumbest and/or most useless legislation of the year.
The only ones who make out in a case like this are the lawyers who pursue the cases. I can almost guarantee you that there won't be a single penny paid by a foreign government to an American victim of terrorism as a result of one of these cases.

A in your face, Obama!
Hopefully, it will not be the last time before he leaves next year.

Someone won’t be happy that adults have taken his rattle away from him.
Lord have mercy on We the little people, the Deplorables. BO’B will be looking to find any ammo to punish US in the most inhumane ways possible.

This will accomplish one thing....they will have to dump every penny they’ve got invested in the US, or face some court trying to seize or freeze the money. Even right now, they have to start doing something to ensure some judge doesn’t go and issue an order within the next weeks to freeze their money.

Haven’t cross-checked the vote, but guessing that the GOP was joined by Northeastern libs with constituent bases close to New York City.

They veto a bill that will benefit trial lawyers.
Now when are they going to tell odumbo he can’t give away the internet?
