It says that \u2018Putin wants to evict the United States from Europe,&#8217;\u201d MacCallum said. \u201cGood-bye America, don\u2019t let the door hit you on the way out. What do you think, sir?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cMartha, thanks for having me on. \u2026 It\u2019s worth noting the U.S. stock market has taken a big hit in that time period as well. American leadership matters. That\u2019s why President Trump and I had a model for deterrence to prevent precisely these kinds of moments. You don\u2019t want to be putting your troops on alert and threatening once the adversary already has his front foot forward,\u201d <a href=\"https:\/\/dailywire.com\/news\/pompeo-bidens-diplomatic-boycott-of-winter-olympics-does-not-go-far-enough\/\">Pompeo<\/a> replied.<\/p>\n<p>He went on to say that if Biden had handled the withdrawal from Afghanistan differently \u2014 or had responded differently to the Russian ransomware attack that shut down the Colonial Pipeline \u2014 America\u2019s credibility might not have taken such a hit in the global arena.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAmerica\u2019s credibility in the world matters, whether it was in the debacle in our departure from Afghanistan, or it was President Putin rolling President Biden at the summit after Russians had attacked the Colonial Pipeline and shut it down, when we did nothing. Weakness begets confrontation,\u201d Pompeo continued. \u201cAnd I\u2019m afraid that\u2019s what Vladimir Putin has seen, I think he thinks he\u2019s still seeing it. I hope this administration will begin to do the things one does to make sure that your friends and allies know that you\u2019ll be with them. There is no one asking for American troops in Ukraine. I haven\u2019t heard anybody make that demand. What they\u2019re asking for is for the United States to live up to its commitments. This matters to the people in Nevada, Kansas, Nebraska, all across America.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe\u2019ll see instability in Europe drive inflation further upward,\u201d Pompeo added. \u201cOne last thought: When you take your eye off the ball in foreign policy, when you put Secretary Kerry and climate change at the top of your foreign policy agenda, I think you see the hard power actors like Xi Jinping and Vladimir Putin say, \u2018Well, that\u2019s all fantastic. You all want to reduce carbon footprint as a matter of national security. We have a different vision for how to execute and deliver on our objectives and use our power.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>MacCallum pointed back to Biden\u2019s claim that \u201cAmerica is back, the Trans-Atlantic alliance is back\u201d \u2014 and asked Pompeo whether that was really true.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt certainly exists, but for someone to suggest from the State Department podium that there are not cracks and different views, it\u2019s not real, it\u2019s fantasy,\u201d Pompeo replied.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe Germans have been incredibly feckless here. We need an ambassador there that is prepared to defend America\u2019s interest and convince the German government to do the right thing not only for Ukraine and Europe but for Germany as well. They\u2019ll suffer under this threat for decades to come. When you shut down your energy systems and say we\u2019re going to rely on Russia, I\u2019m sure that Vladimir Putin and his successor too, will see this risk. It\u2019s outrageous for the Germans to not let equipment move across the country. The United States needs to demonstrate its leadership in the way that President Biden said he would.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Pompeo noted that just such a situation was what former President Donald Trump\u2019s administration had been preparing for when they called for more resources to be put into NATO.<\/p>\n<p>MacCallum posed one last question, asking, \u201cWhat difference would it make if the president said, you know what, we\u2019re going to lease fracking lands because of this situation going with Russia. We\u2019re going to open up the Keystone Pipeline for now because we need to do that. What would the impact be?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt would be enormous on global energy prices,\u201d Pompeo\u2019s response was immediate. \u201cThe world energy markets would respond in a good way. It would be a good thing, it would put pressure on the Germans as well. It would be a good. If he would add to that, Martha, a willingness to say we\u2019re not going to let the Nord Stream 2 pipeline be built, you would have a trifecta with enormous import.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cYou\u2019d see an overnight impact on the markets and geopolitically as well down the road,\u201d MacCallum agreed.<\/p>\n<p>The Daily Wire is one of America\u2019s fastest-growing conservative media companies and counter-cultural outlets for<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Former Secretary of State Mike Pompeo said that President Joe Biden could take three immediate steps that would turn the United States\u2019 energy policy around and also impact the markets \u201cin a good way.\u201d Pompeo joined Fox News host Martha MacCallum on Tuesday\u2019s broadcast of \u201cThe Story,\u201d and he argued that Biden could put pressure &#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":2315279,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_mo_disable_npp":"","fifu_image_url":"","fifu_image_alt":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-1239976","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1239976","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1239976"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1239976\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/2315279"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1239976"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1239976"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1239976"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
