    Biden vows to protect NATO territory, calls pipeline explosions ‘sabotage’ | USA TODAY



    President Joe Biden said that the Nord Stream pipeline explosions were a ‘sabotage’ and vowed to protect ”every inch” of NATO territory.

    President Joe Biden said Friday that leaks in a pair of natural gas pipelines between Russia and Europe were caused by a “deliberate act of sabotage.” The U.S. and its NATO allies are working to find out exactly what happened to the Nord Stream 1 and Nord Stream 2 pipelines, Biden told reporters at the White House.

    Two underwater explosions were recorded in the Baltic Sea shortly before the leaks were found on Monday. European officials also said the explosions appear to be the result of a deliberate act, although it remains unclear who was responsible for the leaks.

    Biden said the Russians are “pumping out disinformation and lies” about the leaks, an apparent reference to Putin accusing the U.S. and its allies of blowing up the lines. Biden said the U.S. already has begun to help its allies protect the critical infrastructure. “At the appropriate moment, when things calm down, we’re going to be sending divers down to find out exactly what happened,” he said.

      I think inflations is causing the current situation we already have now, imagine investing $.5000 and getting a return of $.31,500 bi weekly trading crypto,our leaders is not the solution to our problem cause they're the problem. you can't get rid of corruption in a system built on corruption. The best way to survive the current recession and hardship is to spend and invest wisely.

      Somebody has to buy that poor man some eyeglasses he looks demented when he speaks using that trademark stare, Old Joe better hope Mr Putin doesn't find out he had anything to do with that pipeline stunt but if this turns out to be another one of Old Joe's weak attempts at provoking the Bear he just might end up getting the seat of his drawers bit off..

      Changing his message from If you don't vote for me then you're not BLACK to If you don't vote Democrat you are a Racist white supremacist and a traitor to our Country

      Assimilate or face the full force of the US Government's Military, F-16s, FBI, and the IRS is now a small army with the new Job Requirements straight out of their job description –

      Must be on-call 24/7, including holidays and weekends” and “Carry a firearm and be willing to use deadly force, if necessary supported by 5 Million NATO rounds –

      I doubt this propaganda and will not support this war. I have little faith in these leaders to do the right thing. These warmongers will just get us killed for nothing. Why would people fight under BRANDON when he poisoned them? He abandoned Americans in Afganistan. They trample our constitution and erode our rights. Who would be proud to serve in this conflict? Really, what would we be fighting for? To promote transgenders?

      Don’t group this puppet with the U.S. He’s operating under the control of global elitists that want the population of the world severely reduced.
