So who is the Biden administration trying to hurt more (a) American Gun owners or (b) The Russian Government? The answer gets pretty to figure out in just two headlines.
BBC News: Biden lifts US sanctions on major Russian pipeline
Yep, billions of dollars of revenue to Russia now that the pipeline is no longer being sanctioned and blocked by the US.
and US Department of State: United States Imposes Additional Costs on Russia for the Poisoning of Aleksey Navalny
The Biden administration is banning future imports of Russian-made firearms and ammunition to the US. Just as the ammo shortage was starting to ease, the Biden admin goes off and does this - appearing to be tough on Russia in one minor area while making sure American firearm owners, who tend not to be Biden fans suffer accordingly. This is a much smaller financial loss to Russia than blocking the pipeline would be but it gives the finger to his domestic non-fans.
Funny how that happens.
