In 2017, the US government banned Kaspersky on government systems, if that’s what you’re thinking of. This new ban sounds to me like the recent TikTok ban, where it would affect the US population at-large and not just government systems.
That looks about right, thanks for showing me that.

Oh man, that’s really gonna show em. There aren’t anymore sanctions they can do. So ban Kaspersky I guess? Putin doesn’t give a crap. He’s got plenty of oil, friends with China.

He can do this but nothing about letting women get abortions or forgiving student loans?
In all three cases, he can do it as long as Congress gives him that power. In this case it’s unlikely Congress will push back on banning Russian software, in the other two the republicans have promised to block any executive effort
I have to admit, it’s funny seeing all the gEnOciDe Joe folks cry “it’s not enough!” every time he does something even slightly on the side of positive.
If he did everything they ever wanted, they’d complain that it didn’t happen soon enough and still help Trump win November.

Didn’t they do this in like 2014… More softball politics as usual…

Well, let’s get all three branches of government solidly blue. Then you can complain about things not getting done.
We’ve heard that before
And proceeded to actually fucking go do it for a grand total of a couple of months since 1990
Don’t bitch about work you ain’t been doin’ twit.

Because it hurts Russia even slightly and these people weren’t ever for anything except clearing the way of the antidemocratic world order.
Bingo!
