This is a matter of math and political mechanics, not statutory or constitutional law. The framers of the US Constitution mostly didn’t even want parties to form, but parties formed almost instantly regardless. Then the reliance on single ballot plurality voting (first past the post) led to two parties. Even if a party has significant internal fractures like you find in both the Democratic and Republican parties, an equilibrium of two roughly equally sized parties is held because any other substantial party is pressured into a merger to produce an electoral majority. There have been several iterations of the two party system and every time it produced that equilibrium again.
I also recommend Democracy for the Few which is a great book discussing how US political system actually works. Any semblance of democracy is pure theatre.
You can’t ban pro-Russia parties in the US when the only pro-Russia party in the US has a viable minority in Congress and a majority in the Supreme Court.
When will America get around to this?
America is way ahead of the game where there are two parties with practically identical agenda and all the other parties are effectively shut out.
A truly patriotic party is beholden to local oligarchs (e.g. billionaires) instead of foreign oligarchs

The whole US system is basically an oligarchy. Here’s what a recent large scale study analyzing many decades of US policy concludes:
