Did anybody credibly explain this away? Does Biden know what he is talking about? If so this is very dangerous games he is playing.
"Speaking at a joint news conference with German Chancellor Olaf Scholz, Biden said, "If Russia invades... again, then there will be longer Nord Stream 2. We will bring an end to it."
When asked how he would do that, he responded, "I promise you we will be able to do it."

This threat, which was carried out exactly as threatened(by unknown entities thus far) led unsurprisingly to accusations that the USA blew up the pipeline. As one MEP twittered.
"Another cryptic post on Twitter came from Radosław Tomasz ‘Radek’ Sikorski, a Polish politician and journalist who is a Member of the European Parliament. His post contained an image that had been taken by the Danish Air Force previously, showing the Baltic Sea bubbling where gas is escaping from the damaged pipeline.
All Sikorski wrote as a caption was: “Thank you USA”.

Beyond dangerous. Is Biden in control of himself? I hope somebody can get a handle on him before we are in all-out nuclear war.
