McCain: Russia Has ‘Paid Little or No Penalty’ for All of This ‘Misbehavior’

‘They tell flat-out lies’

RUSH EXCERPT: 
RADDATZ: "Let’s bring in the chair of Senate armed services committee, senator John McCain. Welcome. Good to see you. You were smiling through much of that interview with Mr. Peskov. The Russians are saying the sanctions imposed by Barack Obama are worse than a nuclear standoff. Worse than the Cold War right now. Yet, as George pointed out, there was no public re258 yags after the sanctions were imposed. What does that tell you?
MCCAIN: "I don’t know what it tells me except that they’re succeeding. Succeeding in continuing their dismembering of Ukraine. Succeeding in exerting enormous influence in the Middle East. They have succeeded in interfering with our election. We know that they continue that in the French elections and other elections. And so far, they have paid little or no penalty for all of this misbehavior. The pattern. Listening to that guy, watching him, that’s echoes of the cold War. They tell flat-out lies. You know, that’s the way it is."
