Over the weekend, Senator Lindsey Graham traveled to Ukraine's capital city to show support for the country amid its ongoing war with Russia.
During a press conference, he reportedly revealed that after he met with President Volodymyr Zelensky, the U.S. Senate decided to move forward with strict tariffs against Moscow.
"I would expect next week that the Senate will start moving the sanctions bill," Graham said. "There are House members that are ready to move in the House and you will see congressional action."

Not long after Lindsey Graham's remarks, Steve Bannon appeared on
Real America's Voice and publicly challenged him.
"What the hell is Lindsey Graham doing in Ukraine right now?" host
Eric Bolling asked on the Tuesday, June 3, broadcast.
"There's absolutely zero reason for him to be there," Bannon replied. "He's counterproductive, unless he's lining his pockets."

Steve Bannon didn't stop there, he furthered his criticism, accusing Lindsey Graham of intentionally causing a commotion.
"He's over there stirring it up. This is why I say he should be arrested," Bannon claimed. "Either cut his passport off so he can never come back to the country or arrest him."
"He's a troublemaker," Bannon continued. "He's egging the deep state on and misleading the Ukrainian people into thinking America is all-in."

Steve Bannon expressed his sympathy for Ukraine but claimed that most Americans don't share Lindsey Graham's stance.
"Folks that watch this show and do clips in the Kyiv Post, that's over us every day, understand the American people don't support this, and we're not gonna be there. We want to cut all the money off."
The media executive closed by arguing that the United States has no business in the conflict.
"The American people and the Russian people have no problem," Bannon said. "We don't want to fight each other."
