| Biden overuled Blinken and others to approve Nord Stream 2 |
| 2021-06-17 |
| From the WaPo in a report mostly favorable to Biden there is this nugget...what I'd like to know is which lobbyists with direct access to Biden, e.g. BGR, Roberti Global, McLarty Inbound, Atlantic Council got the Nord Stream 2 decision and did any of them have a relationship with Hunter Biden Last month's decision to withhold sanctions against the company and CEO behind the nearly completed Nord Stream 2 pipeline was particularly divisive. Critics of the pipeline, which would transport natural gas from Russia to Germany, view its imminent completion and operation as a major geopolitical coup for the Kremlin. The State Department, in a position backed by Secretary of State Antony Blinken, his deputy Wendy Sherman and Undersecretary of State Victoria Nuland, recommended a raft of U.S. sanctions intended to block the pipeline, without waivers for the company or chief executive, said officials familiar with the decision. |

| #4 What Did Putin Get, You ask ? Joe Biden sold the former territory called "Russian America" back to the Russians for an undisclosed sum, stock options and Putin's Dacha on the Black Sea. Biden sees this as a win-win as he will eliminate Republican Representatives in the House and Senate rebalancing power back to the Democrat Party, without having to hold an election.  Russian America was the name of the former Russian colonial possessions in North America from 1799 to 1867. Its capital was Novo-Arkhangelsk, which is now Sitka. Settlements were mostly in Alaska but also spanned parts of what is now California, and also three forts in Hawaii |
