      I think they could order Visa / Mastercard / etc. to ban payments to that entity, but 99% of the cases there are ways around it, just ask Putin, he always knows a way to sell petrol to EU / US

      At a guess, tariffs. “Tariffs” is also the answer to all the other questions.

      Don’t try to explain technology to them. It won’t work.

        they’ll try to pass it anyway. if republicants lose majority, it’ll be a horrific couple of months as they try to ram and cram every piece of shit legislation they can think of through before the new session starts.
