Reaction & Commentary
AFTER HALTING THE KEYSTONE PIPELINE ON HIS FIRST DAY IN OFFICE PRESIDENT BIDEN GAVE THE APPROVAL FOR A CONTROVERSIAL GAS PIPELINE FROM RUSSIA TO GERMANY. CRITICS ARGUE THIS WILL ONLY STRENGTHEN VLADIMIR PUTIN AND DESTABILIZE EASTERN EUROPE. SENATOR TED CRUZ TWEETED THIS. THE BIDEN ADMINISTRATION IS SHAPING UP TO BE THE MOST PRO
RUSSIA ADMINISTRATION OF THE MODERN ERA. SENATOR COTTON, YOUR REACTION. >> JOE BIDEN IS SHUTTING DOWN AMERICAN PIPELINES LIKE THE KEYSTONE XL PIPELINE BUT HELPING CONSTRUCT PIPELINES FOR RUSSIA. >> Harris: WHY? >> THIS IS VLADIMIR PUTIN’S NUMBER ONE PRIORITY TO MAKE WESTERN EUROPE — JOE BIDEN WILL ALLOW THIS PIPELINE TO GO
FORWARD EVEN THOUGH HE HAS POWER THAT CONGRESS PASSED IN A BIPARTISAN BASIS TO SANCTION THE OWNERS AND OPERATORS OF THIS PIPELINE. I GUESS BECAUSE HE DOESN’T WANT TO OFFEND GERMANY’S DELICATE SENSIBILITYS. SHOWS YOU HOW JOE BIDEN IS PUTTING AMERICA LAST. SHUTTING DOWN OUR PIPELINES AND LETTING VLADIMIR PUTIN BUILD A
PIPELINE TO WESTERN EUROPE DESPITE HIS OPPORTUNITY TO STOP IT. >> Harris: WHY WOULD HE DO THIS? HE KNOWS — IT WON’T BE PRETTY IN 2022. WHETHER IN THE HOUSE OR THE SENATE. THE PRESIDENT HAS TO SEE THIS. WHY WOULD HE SHUT DOWN WHAT MAKES US WHOLE IN THE UNITED
STATES AND THEN HELP THE RUSSIANS? WHY WOULD HE DO THAT? >> JOE BIDEN SPENT THE LAST FOUR YEARS PRETENDING TO BE JACK RYAN OUT OF A TOM CLANCY NOVEL FOR POLITICAL REASONS. NOW THAT JOE BIDEN IS IN OFFICE HE IS GOING BACK TO HIS OLD WAYS OF APPEASING AND CODLING RUSSIA.
NOT JUST THE PIPELINE. HE GAVE THEM A NO STRINGS ATTACHED EXTENSION OF A ONE-SIDED ARMS CONTROL AGREEMENT. HE SAID HE WOULDN’T SANCTION RUSSIA AS MUCH AS THEY DESERVE IT FOR VARIOUS CYBERATTACKS ON AMERICAN COMPANIES AND NOW HE IS REWARDING VLADIMIR PUTIN WITH A SUMMIT NEXT MONTH IN SOME LUXURY EUROPEAN CAPITAL.
>> Harris: WHY IS THE MAINSTREAM MEDIA ON THIS? WE HEARD FOR FOUR YEARS RUSSIA RUSSIA AGAINST FORMER PRESIDENT TRUMP. THERE WAS NO THERE THERE. BUT BIDEN DOES SOMETHING LIKE THIS AND NOTHING, CRICKETS? NOTHING? >> THE MAINSTREAM MEDIA, LIKE THE. NOW HE ISN’T IN OFFICE THEY GO BACK TO ATTACKING ISRAEL FOR DEFENDING ITSELF.
