Sunday shows preview: Trump-Zelensky feud escalates; Controversies hit White House before midterms

President Donald Trump issued a new executive order on Friday evening halting the implementation of upcoming penalties on Russia that were set to take effect under a sweeping legislative package. The action follows a recent easing of Russian sanctions by the administration, which has escalated an ongoing feud between Trump and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky.

The decision to freeze the new Russia penalties has provoked a fresh wave of bipartisan backlash within the United States. The controversy comes as the White House faces additional political challenges ahead of the upcoming midterm elections.
