Ted Cruz (R-TX) unloaded on Democrat President Joe Biden on Tuesday following reports that the Biden administration has worked out a deal with Germany to allow for the completion of Russia\u2019s Nord Stream 2 pipeline.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe Biden administration will set aside Washington\u2019s longstanding opposition to the pipeline, Nord Stream 2, in a reversal of U.S. policy, ending years of speculation over the fate of the project, which has come to dominate European energy-sector forecasts,\u201d The Wall Street Journal <a href=\"https:\/\/www.wsj.com\/articles\/u-s-german-deal-on-russian-natural-gas-pipeline-expected-soon-11626813466?mod=hp_lead_pos3\">reported<\/a>. \u201cGermany under the agreement will agree to assist Ukraine in energy-related projects and diplomacy.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Former President Donald Trump worked aggressively to stop the pipeline from being completed because it would be a major strategic win for Russia. Biden previously <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dailywire.com\/news\/biden-slammed-over-russian-nord-stream-2-pipeline-report-shaping-up-to-be-most-pro-russia-president\">waived sanctions<\/a> against the company who is building the pipeline and waived sanctions against its CEO.<\/p>\n<p>Cruz responded to the news by saying that Biden was defying U.S. law and has surrendered to Russian President Vladimir Putin.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIf the reports and details of a deal are accurate, this will be a generational geopolitical win for Putin and a catastrophe for the United States and our allies,\u201d Cruz said. \u201cPresident Biden is defying U.S. law and has utterly surrendered to Putin. Decades from now, Russian dictators will still be reaping billions from Biden\u2019s gift, and Europe will still be subject to Russian energy blackmail.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe always knew Biden was in bed with Putin, now they\u2019re spooning,\u201d Cruz added.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"500\" data-dnt=\"true\" readability=\"10.988095238095\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Sen.
