US will not sanction Russia yet, Rubio tells Politico
June 25 (Reuters) - U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio told Politico that the United States will not impose further sanctions on Russia yet, and still wants room to negotiate a peace deal. "If we did what everybody here wants us to do, and that is come in and crush them with more sanctions, we probably lose our ability to talk to them about the ceasefire and then who's talking to them?," Rubio told Politico in an interview on the sidelines of the NATO summit. Rubio added that President Donald Trump will "know the right time and place" for new economic measures against Russia, and that the administration is working with Congress to make sure they allow Trump the appropriate flexibility, Politico reported. "If there's an opportunity for us to make a difference and get them (Russia) to the table, we're going to take it," Rubio said.

Trump should not defy judges' orders, Americans say
M ost Americans believe President Trump has crossed the line with his criticism of the US court system and should not be allowed to defy judges' orders, polling for The Times shows. After the president warned that 'nothing will stop me' and attacked 'communist radical-left judges' for trying to curb his power, a poll by Public First found that 56 per cent of respondents agreed that Trump had gone too far in his criticism, compared with 21 per cent who disagreed. However, Trump retains support from those who voted for him last year. Among this group, only 30 per cent believed Trump had gone too far, with 42 per cent disagreeing. Across both parties, most Americans believed that Trump should follow court rulings. Both Trump and Harris voters disagreed with the statement 'the president should be able to ignore rulings from the Supreme Court that go against their campaign pledges.'
