President Joe Biden abruptly reversed course on Tuesday when he announced that was lifting sanctions on Russia’s Nordstream 2 project because, in his words, ‘because it’s almost completely finished.’

Many in the national security community had opposed the pipeline, which connects Russia to Germany through the baltic sea because they believed it would give Russia too much economic influence over Germany.

As Fox News reports:

“It’s not like I can allow Germany to do something or not,” Biden continued.

“I’ve been opposed to Nord Stream from the beginning … they know how I feel,” he said. Biden added that imposing sanctions now would be “counterproductive” since the project is almost completed.

The White House announced Biden will meet with Russian President Vladimir Putin in Geneva next month.

The Biden administration waived sanctions on the corporation and CEO overseeing the Nordsteam 2 pipeline construction in deference to its diplomatic relationship with Germany. The president drew the ire of Republicans who say lifting the sanctions on the pipeline is a blessing to the Kremlin.

The move is likely to be viewed internationally as a sign of weakness on Biden’s part.

    1. Comrade Putin is is above America and to be first. Retard joe would kiss his ass and throw America under the bus

      1. All Globalists function in that manner. Borders have no meaning to them, nor do the elected officials within nations have powers to enforce their sovereignty. Mr. Rothschild elucidated this agenda quite awhile back with this proclamation: “Permit me to issue and control the money of a nation, and I care not who makes its laws”. Obviously, his notion has a foothold in America.

  1. What a hypocrite! Blasts Trump for being soft on Russia then backs the sanctions off of a pipeline that will mostly benefit Russia (and just like China, give them more dollars to spend on weapons against NATO and the US). And let’s not forget the Keystone Pipeline which would have offered lower gas prices for the US consumer, a pipeline that would have been finished in just a few short years. Everything Biden is doing is sabotaging our future!

    1. The Keystone Pipeline issue should prompt Americans to research the stock portfolio of Numb Nuts and his family. Do they own energy stocks, and do they profit from rising gas prices? Of course, any such efforts will prompt the CIA/FBI/INTERPOL to conduct their investigations……You folks might read about a similar organization known as the NKVD.

  2. Appeasement of the Russians by appproval of their pipeline project while shutting down the Keystone pipeline here, Floating fiat money by the trillions to slush money to cronies while tossing a dime at infrastructure problems and allowing covid and drug packing illegal aliens to “Come on over the border and we’ll pay you to stay” is all in a days work for the leftist Biden. He reminds me of Neville Chamberlain waving the “Peace Treaty with Hitler”. He rules by dictat just like Mussolini or Stalin. What a package we got with him!

  3. What an Idiot we have in the White House. Brain dead, who relies on others to tell him what to do and when. I think he is a spineless moron of a President. Makes Jimmy Carter look like a scholar.

  4. We have a commie in the whitehouse and now he is going to russia for instructions from putin isn’t that what they said about trump but they were wrong about trump

  5. I was a democrat for most of my life but when I turned 60 I had more time to look at politics and I could see back then how the dems were leaning left and the rep’s were more for making america better and stronger so I switched my allegiance to the right I am 84 now so not worried about myself but for my children and grandchildren I pray that they will never have to live a socialist lifestyle like the democrats are trying to shove down our throats

  6. What or should I say how much of the under the table money is Biden/Harris & or families & friends getting for this & closing our own pipe lines. Not only did we sell oil/ gas but all the other products associated that are made from oil & gas. Is this another Ukraine or China like deal.
    I still wondered how Obama & HRC/Clinton’s went from being broke to MULTI-MILLIONAIRES It all should be investigate as it is worse than WATERGATE ever thought of being.
    Oh I forgot we need that sewer we call congress to do that. Am I wrong????

  7. Everything he does shows how demented he is and destructive to America. He allows our competitor to create a stream of income, including Iran, to be used to further compete with us while stopping our pipeline that will create the need to again become energy dependent and buy from other countries with a deficit spending of our dollars to them. Simple idiocy from a man incapable of reading his TelePrompTer or able to put in more than3 hours work. Nice job America.
