Here’s a thought: maybe the pipeline just broke?

According to The LawDog that's the most likely explanation.

Okay, I watched the video. I am calling BS. Sachs was not censured. He was correctly questioned and he was allowed to defend his position at length and uninterrupted. Watch the very last seconds of the video where the interviewer says that this is what they do, as in allow different opinions. That’s the opposite of what’s happen on ever major network news outlet.

Well, yeah of course. When they had complete control of the news, there was no need for fact-checkers because their lies went unchallenged, and we even trusted that they were telling the people the truth. 😋

Sachs is absolutely correct here. Of course civilized folks reject his population control positions. But here he is speaking truth.

You missed the forest the trees. The question is, is the USA complicit in the sabotage.

I think it is very likely the USA committed the sabotage. Biden and administration officials have directly and clearly stated that they would shut down the pipeline if Russia invaded Ukraine. The US definitely has the means. Qui bono? Not Russia. Russia gives up a revenue stream to fund their war machine and they lose leverage over Europe, particularly Germany by losing the pipeline. Russia could just as easily shut off the flow without damaging a very expensive asset.

Does America benefit? No, but every policy and action the Biden administration takes doesn’t benefit America. Just happens that Biden wants the pipeline shut down.

So I didn’t miss anything. The interview was fair. If Steve Bannon was interviewing Sachs, he would have stopped him and make Sachs explain his opinion. That is good journalism. Sachs was given plenty of interrupted time in the Bloomberg interview to explain himself.

Sachs is a Bernie Sanders supporter.

That would imply that Biden did it.

Censured or censored?

"Censured or censored?"
The title says "censured." He wasn't silenced; scolded a bit, maybe.

Why the F are all those strange Putin keywords on this Nord Stream post? Is there some stupid Biden regime employee hanging out on FR?
