It appears the United States of America, under President Joe Biden, is willing to negotiate with terrorists on our most vital of areas, energy. The Colonial Pipeline, which supplies 45 percent of the gas to America’s East Coast, was shut down to a cyber attack, and, it appears, despite the Administration’s initial denial, or at least feigned ignorance, the Colonial Pipeline paid off the hackers to regain control of the supplies. This won’t encourage future assaults, certainly.

Then came the news from Colonial that they would be opening back up the pipeline they shut down after the cyber attack.
Turns out there was a lot more to the story that the Biden folks weren’t saying.
Remember when a reporter asked the Biden folks about the question of ransom and what they were saying to Colonial in regard to whether or not they should pay the ransom?
As we reported, Deputy National Security Advisor for Cyber and Emerging Technology Anne Neuberger responded that whether or not Colonial Pipeline pays ransom to these attackers is a “private sector decision” and acted as though they had no discussion with the company about it.
I noted what an odd response this was to such a national security threat and serious federal crime, particularly given that the Pipeline serves 45% of the gasoline and other fuel on the East Coast.
