Cruz puts hold on Biden's CIA nominee
By Jordan Williams - 03/06/21 03:02 PM EST


Sen. Ted Cruz (R-Texas) put a hold on President Biden’s nominee to lead the Central Intelligence Agency in a bid to get the administration to take action against Russia’s Nord Stream 2 pipeline project.

Cruz confirmed the move on Friday, saying on Twitter “I’ll release my hold when the Biden admin meets its legal obligation to report and sanction the ships and companies building Putin’s pipeline. Follow the law. Stop being soft on Russia. #NordStream2” 

The move was first reported by Bloomberg News. The hold will delay the nomination, and Biden's nominee, William Burns, is ultimately expected to be confirmed.

The Hill has reached out to Cruz’s office for further comment.

The Senate Intelligence Committee unanimously advanced Burns’s nomination to the full Senate on Tuesday.

Could Biden's nominee actually have been Putin or Xi?
