Yes, the U.S. Senate backed a "super-package of sanctions" against Russia.

In itself, the move is handsome and noble. It did an excellent job of stirring up the hopes of civilized humanity for the taming of the deranged Putin and his horde.
The U.S. Senate gave the green light to new crushing sanctions against Russia
By 86 votes to 12, the U.S. Senate supported advancing Lindsey Graham's bill on new sanctions against Russia.
The document provides for tough restrictions not only against Moscow, but also secondary sanctions against countries and companies that continue buying Russian oil, gas, and other energy resources.
Senators in the United States, who do not understand what "Russia" is, are jubilating and hugging each other.
The stake has been prepared. Its sharpening has been agreed upon, checked to the millimeter, and completed. All that remains is to impale Putin and the Russian Federation on it.
In the thinking of the U.S. Senate, the savage economic point will drive deep into the anus of the "Russian world," cause Russia unbearable financial pain, and send it into a social and industrial faint.
The country will have no time for war, everything will "fall apart and dissolve," and Putin will be beaten to death by hobos with dirty glass bottles.
Theoretically, all of this is true.
But in practice, given the specific nature of the Russian Federation, the picture will not be so idyllic.
Russia is a barbaric expanse.
It grew up on the stake. Its population was raised on Soviet poverty and total lack of rights.
For three quarters of its inhabitants, the chemical-pencil mark indicating their number in the line for toilet paper has not yet faded. That number is inscribed on their hearts and passed down from grandfathers to grandchildren and great-grandchildren.
The economic stake on which the United States intends to impale the Russian Federation may well bring Russians not shock and pain, but a feeling of "deep satisfaction" and a return to traditional bonds.
