6:03 pm
you're watching the fox business network. we begin with stocks rallying today into the close but the president warning russia not deescalating. 150,000 troops still in position. massive military war games, a cyberattack slammed ukraine's defense and foreign ministries also it tanks. that is blamed on russia. is this a prelude to an invasion? could russia possibly invade even more countries in order to bring back the soviet union? edward lawrence is at the white house with more. reporter: you're talking about the markets today. we'll see what happens tomorrow. as you mentioned cyberattacks inside of ukraine today hitting the defense ministry as well as two large banks. the nato secretary-general says moscow's indicating that they want to continue the diplomacy but there are no signs of de-escalation. president biden speaking with french president emmanuel macron about the situation also addressing reporters urging several off-ramps to escalation offered by allies.
6:04 pm
then president biden offered this warning -- president biden: we're not seeking direct confrontation with russia though i have been clear that if russia targets americans in ukraine, we will respond forcefully. reporter: as the negotiation and posturing continues experts who study russia and china say there is an alarming relationship solidifying in 2021, the trade between the two countries hit a record high, up 36% from the year before. on february 4th, the two world leaders released a joint statement saying a trend has emerged towards redistribution of power in the world. add in the current price of oil which helps russia. >> russia has control over europe in many respects because many european countries rely upon russia for oil and gas. so right now russia went from being sort of marginalized when we had 40-dollar a barrel oil to now emboldened with the price
6:05 pm
being twice that high and it makes them bedfellows with china right now for a variety of reasons. reporter: the president again saying all tools are on the table to help bring down gas prices should russia invade but as you know, liz, gas prices are rising anyway. elizabeth: great reporting. edward lawrence thank you so much. good to see you. joining us now senator bill cassidy from senate energy. your reaction to this report, senator? so good to have you on. thanks for joining us. is a cyberattack a prelude to invasion? will we see aerial strikes out of russia on ukraine? >> we don't know what we will see but they will continue to impose psychological warfare even if they don't directly attack but let me build on what edward said earlier. they are strong because of the high price of energy. this administration rationing the production of u.s. energy contributes to that high price. if we want to undermine the russian economy, undermine their war machine, undermine their
6:06 pm
kleptocratic leaders let's start producing u.s. energy. that will help us, it will hurt them. it's a better way to go. elizabeth: that is an important point you're making even during the cold war the soviet union never shut down its gas exports. the cyberattack, russia wiped out estonia same way in 2007. took out estonia banks, media websites. russia has had 20 years of cyberattacks, pentagon, doe, colonial, pipeline. are you worried about that? >> i'm worried about that. i assume we have cyber assets in their systems as well. something could be done short of war unleash some of our cyber assets to let them know one-sided attacks will not be tolerated. by the way we should not do that anyway every timing is happens like the colonial pipeline attack. there should be some response tit-for-tat, maybe two titts for
6:07 pm
one it at. elizabeth: inflation running 12 year highs. white house 9%. white house press secretary jen psaki trying to gift president credit for gas prices coming down but just 10 cents in december after a daurendown from the strategic petroleum reserve. gas prices are at seven year highs. i would like your reaction to this, watch. >> in terms of the price of gasoline, what we've seen we know back in december it went down by 10 cents thanks to tapping the strategic petroleum reserve something where releases are ongoing. the president is clear in his remarks all options are on the table to help bring down the price of gasoline. elizabeth: your reaction? >> yeah. hope the option includes actually using america's natural resources. they continue to not lease off the louisiana outer continental shelf. federal lands that would benefit us all. they continue to have moratorium on production of oil and gas on public lands.
6:08 pm
if we unleash that it creates jobs for americans. it improves our economy, it lowers the price of fuel. by the way it hurts the russians. if everything is on the table that should be too. elizabeth: you know russia is claiming that u.s. senate gas is the dirtiest in the world. russia's nat-gas is the dirtiest in the world. it has the highest methane content. even at the height of the cold war the soviet union never shut down its gas exports. so unleash the powerful u.s. energy industry to beat back russia. russia is weak inside. its markets on fears of potentially crippling sanctions from the u.s. and the west. russia like u.s. is battling historic high inflation. russia inflation rates are eight, 9%. their loan rates are moving 10%. there is unrest over there. how does that affect u.s. strategy and the west strategy? >> first acknowledge, the reason, one of the way reagan brought down the iron curtain, got the saudis to flood the world with cheap oil t collapse
6:09 pm
the the price of oil and collapsed the russian economy. you end up with row upon row of rusting tanks gorbachev had to make a move. lower cost of energy, lower their profit margin. as regards to others putin cares about himself. he doesn't care if the russian people suffer. he has money in a swiss bank account. maybe go after him individually, impound money overseas in cypress or heather lands or the jersey aisles, go after properties in new york, miami and london. go after the individuals. i think putin cares about putin. elizabeth: there are reports that he could potentially go after moldova and belarus if he seizes ukraine, right? we saw this story in the sochi olympics there was push and aggressiveness by russia. reports to your point, egypt, cyprus, israel, u.a.e., warning oil prices could move way past $100 a barrel. that is an issue, right?
6:10 pm
another, go ahead. >> clearly george cannon way back when talked about you who the russians, ussr have expansionist view of the world. they also want to move their borders out. we saw it with czarist russia. we saw it with the ussr. now we're seeing it with putin. the only thing they respond to is strength. we don't provoke a war. we don't step into a war where it is not in our interests but on other hand there has to be strength. they only respond to strength. elizabeth: it is not a good look for democrats to shut down u.s. energy as the president, the cabinet, john kerry, nancy pelosi, fly on private jets. bernie sanders pushing the clinton campaign around to only fly on private jets for himself. the irony is crackdown on u.s. energy and undercutting it is basically helping the permian basins, the basins in the wyoming and north dakota. oil put put is higher helping
6:11 pm
production in colorado and texas as well. the production forecast is estimated to hit record highs in 2023. so what do you think of that angle? >> i think it is good the private market is responding but there is a lot of energy locked up on federal lands if this administration decided to open it up it would help at that production it would lower prices and again it would help lower the prices in international markets undermining the russian economy. you can't separate the energy economy from geopolitical considerations. this administration has ignored geopolitical. that is why we have the russians so strong. they think they can invade ukraine. elizabeth: senator bill cassidy, it's a pleasure to have you on. come back soon. the latest developments on the durham investigation. a story we've been tracking for months now. just how far did the clinton campaign go to build the trump-russia collusion conspiracy that robert mueller's probe spent more than $30 million. found out it wasn't there. senator marsha blackburn joins us next on "the evening edit."

answer questions about special counsel durham finding her campaign funded computer researchers to excavate data mine white house computers to go after trump. joining us now from senate judiciary, senator marsha blackburn. so great to have you back on, senator. what was your reaction when you heard the story the campaign was also accused of funding ransacking of data out of computers in trump's apartment building in new york city to try trump to russia? >> liz, i tell you it shows how desperate they were to win this election. they knew they couldn't win it on their own. then they were furious when they lost. so they decided they had to cook up this slop and find something to go with trump to ruin his press inden sy and i think it is to point out the trump campaign was run out of trump tower and then the transition was run there. so those of us like me, people like me, that worked on the
6:17 pm
campaign, that vice-chaired the transition, what of our data did they hack, did they gather, did they hold? where is that data now? who has this? i think those are some of the questions that as you see general durham working through this investigation he now has a chain of events. he has this alleged spying. it is still at this point. but the connections between michael sussman, marc elias, jake sullivan, the people on the hillary campaign, clinton herself, the tech company and now the tech executive who has been named. all of that is laid out and it now, it will be a matter of piecing some of these together and finding out exactly how extensive this was during the campaign of trump tower, trump's
6:18 pm
apartment and also when you look at what happened in the white house. elizabeth: yeah. the health company too, possibly health hack. lawyers for the computer researcher rodney jeff if i said legally provided access to the computer databe takenned from a private client working on computers at the white house. a federal contract makes it okay for a democrat political campaign to exploit that to knock out rival trump. you mentioned biden, nsa jake sullivan, he went on camera saying we think we established a trump russia alfa bank connection. watch this. watch. >> what we learned during the campaign was that very serious computer science experts, people who work closely with the united states government had uncovered this secret hotline between the alfa bank, the russian bank, and the trump organization. now of course we didn't know for sure if in fact that were the case but we knew it should be investigated and we knew that given how serious these computer
6:19 pm
scientists were, they were just not making up crackpot theories. i don't have a line into the fbi on this but what i know based on public reporting there is very unusual server activity between this russian bank and the trump organization which suggests contact that took place over the course of the campaign. elizabeth: okay, a couple of things here. sullivan emphatically then a few months later denies to congress in december of 2017 that he knew anything about this, that the hillary campaign work. he called this quote absurd. watch what he denied, he or any member of hillary's campaign was working quote to procure fake russian disinformation to harm trump. he denied fake information. that is his non-denial denial, right? so then you have hillary making like she is oblivious to all of this, her campaign funded, retweeting these fake allegations about trump and associates using rare russia phones and connecting to overseas maybe russian i.p.
6:20 pm
addresses. the whole thing smacks of absurdity, for media not to report it, just take out the names trump and clinton, is it okay to ransack white house computers or computers of a private apartment building to go after a political component, opponent, rather? to get the fbi, cia, to wipe them out? >> well none of that is okay and they know this but they know now that john durham has figured out what they did and he knows what the chain of events were, that led to this and that is where we're going to see how involved was hillary clinton or was bill clinton or marc elias. we know that michael sussman is indicted on lying to the fbi. we know that they knew this information that they were giving was not accurate information. it appears that jake sullivan
6:21 pm
was intertwined in this, knowing what had actually transpired and that this was inaccurate information. elizabeth: yeah. >> so this is never okay. not for a democrat, an independent, a republican, it is not okay for anybody. elizabeth: let's watch former dni ratcliff lay out what charges could be at stake. he gave 1000 pages of documents to the durham team. watch this. >> anyone that was aware that this campaign plan was going to be falsely pitched to the fbi or cia or law enforcement or intelligence authorities would be subject to criminal prosecution for any number of criminal crimes and based on more intelligence that has not yet been declassified, i would expect there to be, frankly quite a few more indictments. i think this conspiracy, and i do think there was a criminal conspiracy, is broad and deep.

elizabeth: senator, so sorry, got 10 seconds. running out of time. >> he is exactly right. we do think it is is broad, we think it is deep. people want answers and somebody to be held accountable. elizabeth: got it. thank you, senator marsha blackburn. come back soon. could this backfire? civil liberties groups blaming prime minister trudeau taking unprecedented action, evoking national emergency powers to stop trucker protests. we're talking to the lead attorney representing these essential workers. >> this is so ridiculous. these people by themselves, most of the day they are not going to be spreading this virus to anybody else and the case count is plummeting. ♪.

6:27 pm
yesterday in the evening but it does give the federal government sweeping powers in an attempt to get rid of these truckers who are now as you said, in the 19th day of protests. among those powers it allows the government to call in private tow-truck drivers to remove the trucks from wellington street in front of parliament here. it also allows them to freeze and suspend insurance and bank accounts of truck drivers who are participating in what the government considers to be illegal block aids. on top of that there have been crowd funding sites people have been donating too from all across canada and to in the united states to try to support the truck drivers. this allows the federal government to shut those down as well. i will tell you the truckers here realize the irony what they're protest something government overreach. so now the government is responding with more forceful measures. the truck drivers i talked to say this will not deter them.

2021, trudeau himself called covid passports and vaccine mandates, quote, extreme measures that could really divide the country. now the canadian civil liberties association says this is an overreach. this is not, basically, this is not a national emergency act event. it is not threatening canada's sovereignty but the other side is saying you're blockading our trade routes, it is. what do you say? >> well the trade route blockage is occurring spontaneously. the truckers here in ottawa come across the country to reassert their charter rights and protest pass fully as they're allowed to under our constitution a number of those border blockades have been removed by the police. it is troubling that the focus now son the peaceful protesters here in ottawa. we have jumpy castles for the kids. there is entainment. it is a very festive environment as people are hopeful that our rights will get back and here we
