Russian President Vladimir Putin is once again outplaying Germany. The Kremlin sees clearly that Europe is on the verge of its worst energy crisis, largely because Germany has abandoned the goal of diversification. In the chaos, Putin is posturing to ensure his interests are secure, and at the heart of his strategy is Ukraine and Nord Stream 2.
The response from the Biden Administration continues to be weak and slow.

“The response from the Biden Administration continues to be weak and slow.” And shitty.
France laughs with 70% nuclear power. I think the Germs just voted to outlaw coal and wood burning at that scottish boondoggle.
At least a high number of jihadists will freeze to death in that shithole country.
The ACLJ would do best sticking to suing the Justice Department. As to Europe’s dependence on Russia to keep from freezing to death - that was Europe’s choice.

This is good. Europe reliant on Russian gas and Russia reliant on Europe as a customer means less chance of war, and less chance of a war they will drag us into

Nothing wrong with posting this, but our blindness to China really bothers me. Whether we like it or not, the world now has 3 superpowers, Russia, US, and China. The days where we could go it alone are OVER, thanks to Republicans not dispensing with Democrats once and for all (and thanks to Republicans making China into a superpower), so now we have to pick a side, or get crushed...and the more we antagonize Russia, the closer we are to that ‘crushed’ option. We’ll most likely see that we’re no longer king of the hill first with Taiwan.
Russia is not reliant on europe as a customer. Russia can sell all the gas they can find to China, and leave europe high and dry. It isn’t about Russia going to war against Europe. They won’t have to. Western Europe is busy committing cultural and ultimately national suicide. Eastern Europe knows Russia intimately and understand what is afoot but they don’t have the economic strength yet to mount a full defense..
I’m with you. Allies 2iith Putin and Russia, not adversaries. China is , and always has been Enemy #1.
Dump Biden , reinstate Trump , confront Xi
Germany has no spine and Biden is a staunch allie of Putin.
They hate Poland.
How is it any better than a collusion hoax?
The reason for the European gas shortage is that the American politicians said that the Russian gas is bad, and the American LNG is going to replace it. The “third energy package” was lobbied, prohibiting long-term contracts for the spot market, and limited the Russian pipelines to just 50% of their capacity as an “anti-monopoly” measure.
Now, exactly 17 billion bcm of the American LNG is missing on the European market because the price in China is harder and Russia supplies more than the previous year despite all the artificial limitations, and it is the war Russia waged on Europe....
Explain me what I don’t get.
