accusing him of russia collusion. trump wants a big 72 million-dollars in damages. the fallout tonight. i'm elizabeth macdonald. "the evening edit" starts right now. ♪. elizabeth: welcome to the show. you're watching the fox business network. let's start off with stocks, up in a tech led bounce, a broad advance on wall street. oil retreats from a two week high. the president met with nato leaders in brussels. new sanctions on more than 400 russians and russian entities including the entire duma and 300 members. also 40 russian defense companies as well. the u.s. is sending more lng nat-gas shipments to the eu as russia continues to threaten to retaliate and cut off europe's energy supplies. zelenskyy drops demand for nato fly zone over ukraine.
6:03 pm
ukraine is taking back territory, pushing russia from around kyiv. edward lawrence in brussels. good to see you. reporter: good to see you. the president trying to get all the world leaders on the same page. they announced as you mentioned a new round of sanctions which included banning from the russian central bank using gold from their transactions. president biden: sanctions never deter the maintenance of sanctions, maintenance of sanctions increasing the pain and demonstration -- reporter: in the new sanctions announced out of the gmeeting the sanction evasion initiative going after any country that's helping russia, former u.n. ambassador kay bailey hutchison said the allies better watch out for china. >> this is a time when the heads of state can getting to the and actually talk about not only what is being done but what more
6:04 pm
can be done and also talk about the issue of china. i think that is going to come up and i think everyone knows that unity together, talking to china, will be certainly important to keep them from helping russia with this dreadful situation. reporter: now nato will also almost double the amount of troops they have on the eastern part of the nato countries just in case to fortify the allies including the u.s. also talking about possibly giving the you anians anti-ship missiles. the ukrainian president asked nato specifically for tanks and planes. back to you, liz. elizabeth: great reporting there, edward lawrence. good to see you. from the house republican conference, he is vice-chair mike johnson and ken buck from house foreign affairs. take it to you, congressman johnson. first this, senator mitch mcconnell is saying no
6:05 pm
to biden's supreme court nominee, judge brown jackson. your reaction to that? >> well, we welcome that news of course. we're not sure that she was properly vetted by the biden administration. there are some serious questions about leniency in some of these sentencing cases with child pornography,. that is one of the first things you can imagine and she was not completely forthright with regard to her judicial philosophy. these are fair questions. important questions. that is what a nomination process is about. i don't think her answers are satisfactory. if it was up to us we would like the white house to go back to the drawing board. we'll see what happens. elizabeth: last say of senate hearings for supreme court nominee judge brown jackson. seems like senators came away more baffled. gop senator ted cruz will not vote for the judge. senator tom cotton doesn't find her testimony credible. but she could be seated on the supreme court by april.
6:06 pm
what do you think? >> when a judge can't define what a woman is, we have serious problems in this country. that is exactly where we are with judge jackson. she is not just soft on crime as my friend mike pointed out soft on the worst kind of crime, child important if i, child predators, watching pornography and going out preying on young people w he need a judge especially time of rising crime, because of democrat policies, we need a judge that sends a very clear message that criminals are in trouble. elizabeth: to the congressman's point, congressman johnson, senator mitch mcconnell said this too. less than one year on the d.c. court. the only real body of evidence is the trial record as a trial judge. she has only written two opinions. justice gorsuch authored 212 opinions. kavanaugh 306. judge barrett in her three years, 300. there are only two appellate
6:07 pm
court decisions. seemed watching what was going on, when the senators tried to ask her a question, let's get into the specifics of each case, she would turn it around on congress, say it is congress' fault for the sentencing laws. >> yeah. she was very evasive and she went to her methodology instead of her philosophy. vetting of supreme court justice is one of the most important functions of the united states senate. these are judges that sit for life. when someone at age of a justice brown jackson, she could conceivably on the high court for decades. so the longest lasting legacy of any president who they put on the federal courts and the most important of course is our highest one. so look, i think the level of scrutiny was called for. i do not think that she met the test and i think these complaints and concerns that are being stated are shared by millions and millions of the american people. this is of great concern. what my friend colleague ken bach said is exactly right. if you can't define a woman,
6:08 pm
that says a whole lot about your philosophy. that is scary prospect for her to be on the bench. elizabeth: let's look to see what happened. let's watch this exchange with senator josh hawley. watch this. >> i can't vote for somebody hon the u.s. supreme court who is going to apologize to criminals, who is not going to be tough when you need to be tough in order to protect children and i just, you have got to be able when the time comes to say listen, if you are a child predator, you are going to jail for a long time. that is something she just hasn't been willing to do. >> senator, i've answered this question. i've explained how the guidelines work and i will stand on my answer. >> but the guidelines are not mandatory. i which thereby they were but they're not the supreme court made that determination. i am trying to understand why you think it is rational not to sentence criminals based on number of images they have. you say this is a policy disagreement that you have with the guidelines. >> senator, i previously explained what the policy disagreement is and i will stand
6:09 pm
on my answer. >> so you're not going to answer my question. >> no, i have answered your question in my answer -- >> you haven't anticipated my question, you're sitting here declining you to answer. >> would it surprise you mr. stewart recidivist, warrant for his arrest three years after you sentenced him. >> would it surprise me? >> would it surprise you? >> you know, senator, there is data in the sentencing commission and elsewhere that indicates that there are recidivism, serious recidivism issues and so, among the various people that i have sentenced i'm not surprised there are people who reoffend. it is a terrible thing that happens in our system. elizabeth: congressman buck, so if she is aware of recidivism, is aware that people will reoffend, particularly with this crime, why go soft to begin
6:10 pm
with, congressman on these individuals? >> because she served as a public defender. it is clear where her heart is, it is with the davids, it is not with the victims. i prosecuted with the department of justice for 15 years around i can tell you the highest level of recidivism with child sex offenders. she was soft on those people, people that scare us all to dothal death when we have children, send our children to school because we don't know who is lurking around the corner. to have a supreme court justice from the far left who is soft on crime is just another sign of the weakness of the biden administration. elizabeth: that is what the gop is going to take into the midterms, congressman johnson, what congressman buck just said. market polls, independent voters, 2/3, they don't like rising crime. the media is saying any questioning or any criticism of judge jackson is basically
6:11 pm
racism. what do you say to that? >> oh, that's absurd. we are vetting her philosophy and her qualifications. that is what congress is supposed to do. that is the specific job of the u.s. senate. and they're doing a fine job with that. but listen, the biden administration projected weakness. they're either unable or unwilling to address the crime problem. this nominee, i think highlights that. it highlights the position they have on these critical issues and they are issues that the american people care about. i think this is one more factor that is going to play into the election this fall. we're expecting a big red wave because of it. elizabeth: so, congressman buck, did it register in the media or elsewhere that justice amy coney barrett's nomination hearings, unrelenting attacks on her background everything was fair game, her religion, her personal life, fabricated theories about prior assurances on pending cases which wasn't true. amy coney barrett were
6:12 pm
surrounded on people relying on affordable care act. she voted to preserve it which is what was expected. what ask your take on how the media handling the nomination? >> they have been unfair at all. any criticism of president obama was racist. any criticism of this nominee is racist. it wasn't racist, it wasn't anti-catholic when they attacked justice barrett. it wasn't anti-woman, it wasn't sexist when they attacked her. the idea what they did to justice kavanaugh was are inhumane. that fraud was continued to be perpetrated after he was sworn in. the idea we are treating or the senate is treating this candidate unfairly is ridiculous. the purpose of going through these hearings is to make sure that the american people have confidence in the nominee and ultimately probably the supreme court justice. in this case they don't. and they shouldn't.
6:13 pm
elizabeth: congressman mike johnson an ken buck, good to see you both. come back soon. great to have you on. we have growing outrage, alarming new price tag for the amount of tax money stolen from the pandemic relief that democrats pushed hard on. this comes from the inspector general who led the charge investigating the fbi's botched trump-russia probe. also later in the show the trump lawsuit against hillary clinton and many more. all that on "the evening edit". do you think any of us will look back in our lives,

elizabeth: joining us now, congresswoman nancy mace. good to have you, congressman. we have house democrats mics thompson from california, my lawrence from connecticut, they want more government handouts that democrats created, high gas prices. this they want rebate checks going to the people at the gas pumps. i thought it was bad for the climate. weren't democrats against that. >> no, that's right. part of the reason we have 40-year high record inflation at 7.9% over the last 12 months, 1% additionally in january alone is because of record spending. spending and higher taxes that we're all seeing everywhere we
6:18 pm
go -- leads to inflation. wages are not keeping up with inflation. democrats, you're absolutely right, liz created there problem. elizabeth: associated press found after 6 trillion on that front, hundreds of millions of dollars in pandemic money earned by hard-working taxpayers, spent on golf courses, ski slopes, baseball park in upstate new york, completely unrelated to the pandemic as hospitals are in desperate need of workers, drugs and vaccines and the other thing, congresswoman, the doj inspector general, michael horowitz, he oversees government pandemic spending. he is the guy who uncovered massive abuses by fbi and doj officials in trump russia, he is saying $100 billion in pandemic money stolen, 100 billion bucks. >> don't forget $140 million for a ocean front four-star hotel in florida. that is ridiculous.
6:19 pm
there were millions of dollars to pay off the debts of non-profits. this is one of the reasons we're having the high inflation. you add on top of it the infrastructure bill had 42 new taxes in it. the federal reserve printing trillions of dollars, all of this contributes to the inflation woes we're seeing today. liz, in d.c., we've been voting a lot. i finally got home earlier this week after my visit to poland and border of ukraine but i spent $350 of groceries for myself and my two kids, that is 30% more than i recall spending on average a year, year-and-a-half ago. unbelievable when you see families i can't imagine what families are doing across the country, sacrifices they are making because of the situation that president biden created for them. elizabeth: now there is growing fear of recession. we have the federal reserve chair saying even the federal reserve didn't expect inflation to go above 7%. that is more than triple the target rate of 2%. saying it will take three years
6:20 pm
to bring it down. why is anybody in congress standing up to the democrats saying, your go-to policy of government spending to fix anything and everything is wrong? >> really it is very difficult because we're in the minority. i believe we'll win a majority in november. when we do that it will be time to have hearings, it will be time to try to do what we can to reduce spending, to reduce taxes when we're in the majority. my biggest frustrations with both sides of the aisle they have been both guilty of raising taxes and greater spending, when i'm on majority, committee like oversight that i sit on, will have subpoena power, will be looking where is the fraud? how did it happen? $100 billion of fraud, who did it? let's try to get dollars back. find ways to cut spending. look at penny plan to balance the budget over next couple years. let's try to reduce taxes for every working american and try to bring that kind of relief we so desperately need right now. elizabeth: so we've got these
6:21 pm
reports gop house minority leader kevin mccarthy and gop, sending dozens of notices to save records for subpoenas. what do you think the gop will do when they take back congress? covid, doj going after parents, intelligence community, what are they going after? >> i hope they look at the border. two million immigrants crossing united states. the only oversight we had about the border was the non border rather than the southern border that was a major crisis we had last year. i would like to get to the bottom of afghanistan. what equipment did we leave? how much money did we leave behind? how much did we learn from mistakes last couple years,
6:22 pm
especially when it comes to spending? i would love for us to finally address balancing the budget. when you saw interest rates 4%, we have to get the federal government spending under control. when we had covid the government literally shut companies down. didn't do a darn thing repealing back, repealing spending they're doing. record revenue of taxes year-over-year in covid. didn't cut spending whatsoever. elizabeth: congresswoman mace, good to see you. thanks for joining us. >> thank you, liz. elizabeth: okay this big fight in d.c. dr. oz will not resign after the white house threatened to fire him from the president's fitness council. more problems with cdc data used in the pandemic. all that next on "the evening edit." >> that joe biden would politicize health. let me offer a suggestion. the doctor he should ask to resign is dr. anthony fauci.

elizabeth: let's welcome to the show house gop doctors caucus co-chair, dr. michael burgess. congressman, great to have you back on. dr. oz saying, good to see you. the white house is threatening to fire dr. oz from the president's fitness council. herschel walk too. they were running for president. white house saying hatch act says he can't be on government council if he is running for the senate. what do you say to this story? >> well, first off, if, if that's really true, what they're
6:27 pm
saying about the hatch act, and i don't know that it is, if there really true, there is reasonable way to let people know to continue their service on the board, thank them for their service, first off, because of political conflict we feel it is best not to stay on the board. you can do that without creating the type of conundrum that the president did. now look, i also am old enough to remember when kathleen sebelius was charged with a violation of the hatch act. she didn't have to resign as hhs secretary. they paid the fine and went on. and shy was told never to do it again. if you don't comingle your official, with your political side, my understanding is it is okay to continue. elizabeth: so dr. oz is saying this is just political because he was put on there by trump. watch dr. oz talk more about this. much watch this. >> i just received a letter on your screen on behalf of
6:28 pm
president biden from the white house, requesting that resign from the president's council on sports fitnesss and nutrition. it is beyond sad that joe biden would politicize such an important issue like health. in fact let me offer a suggestion, the doctor he should ask to resign is dr. anthony fauci, for a multitude of obvious reasons. with that said, i'm beyond grateful to president trump appointing me to very prestigious and important position. most of all grateful to my colleagues on the committee, the council, the amazing accomplishments we were able to achieve. i have no intention of resigning. none. if president biden wants to politicize health, he will have to fire me. we'll show americans how truly petty and political he is. i would think record high energy prices, 40-year high with inflation and tragedy for ukraine would be a more important priority. elizabeth: whoa, he is really laying into the president and dr. fauci there? >> and, everything that he put forward is absolutely reasonable. that is why people like dr. oz
6:29 pm
so much but here's is a panel that is designed to keep people healthy so that they don't get sick, so that health care expenditures do not go up. you would think this would be the very thing where the administration would be concentrating their efforts as a deliverable for the american people. not to mention all the other negatives that dr. oz listed off there. elizabeth: congressman, other thing that is happening we're digging into the cdc data. you can't trust it. the doctor. dc lowered total covid-19 death count by2,000. they are saying the government's algorithm overcounted covid related deaths by 72,000 across 26 states. they're blaming it on a logic error. throughout the pandemic we're using algorithms, ballpark estimates and modeling to move through a pandemic when it was so vital we needed to know. we still don't know the few
6:30 pm
number of people who died because of covid or died with covid-19. >> that is an important distinction obviously because, mortality rates drive a lot of public policy and look, dr. wallin ski came to our doctor's caucus last week. she was prepared and pretty honest with us, but didn't tip her hand about the significant change in the data that was about to be revealed this is sort of stuff that drives people crazy and erodes public trust in the public health institutions that we're all talking about. why is that important? as a practicing physician i rely on the cdc. the cdc should be the premier source for data, not just in this country but around the world and the cdc has lost so much credibility with the fact
6:31 pm
that they have had to disavow things, walk things back and change their minds on things. yes, some in the trump administration but in spades in the biden administration. there needs to be a little bit more humility dealing with a novel virus no one ever seen before. okay, you can get some things wrong, the public will accept that if you're honest and aboveboard but golly you have to be transparent about this stuff. elizabeth: that is true. naid or nih has not been transparent what is going on with some things including the origins of the pandemic. congressman burgess, good to see you. come back soon. up next, former president trump suing hillary clinton, suing the dnc, james comey, andrew mccabe, peter strzok and a lot more, allegedly falsely conspired to accuse him of russia collusion. he wants $72 million in damages. the details on this fiery lawsuit next on "the evening edit".

6:37 pm
take the information to the government, fabricated information about connections between donald trump and russia and claiming that he wasn't representing any particular interest when he did that. june door ham, said, that is not true. you were bill be the clinton campaign doing that very activity. this adds to the final pieces that donald trump's team needs to be able to successfully pursue this lawsuit. hopefully it creates the kind of consequences that keep people from doing these kind of underhanded tactics in the future. elizabeth: we're waiting to hear back from the other side to see if they respond to the lawsuit. he is saying, vince, he incurred $24 million in legal fees and costs to defend himself. he is saying they basically accessed, confidential highly sensitive government date to build their conspiracy case. he saying it is conspiracy and rack keithering going after them with rico in federal court in florida. >> it is easy to believe that his legal fees have reached
6:38 pm
stratospheric levels. remember all of the people around him, i just remember during his presidency, his constant concern for people who worked within the white house who were constantly being badgered by legal demands for preservation of documents and then people who were pursued and charged with process crimes, this all began an effort in order to instill misery within the trump administration, and then to bring match chin nations of the administration itself chosen by the american people to a grinding halt this very much thing deserves yet another look because it has never gotten the deep scrutiny it deserves. john durham getting some answers out now. maybe this lawsuit can help bring us a bit of discovery too, to get answers what were these people doing behind the scenes in order to take down donald trump and the people who voted for him. >> he says it pales to comparison with watergate. what happened in watergate is
6:39 pm
like nothing what he went through, what his team went through. the other side said there was probable cause, the fbi needed to pursue it, needed to keep digging in but, what needs to be said is that there was an abuse of the federal police force, the fbi, by a political campaign to go after a political rival. you know, vince, i want to look at this, when the story first surfaced, "60 minutes" interview with lesley stahl, shut down donald trump over this. watch this. >> the biggest scandal was when they spied on my campaign. they spied on my campaign. >> there is no real evidence of that. >> of course there is. it is all over the place. >> no. >> leslie, spied on my campaign. >> sir, can i say something? you know this is "60 minutes" and we can't put on things we can't verify. >> you won't put it on because it is bad for biden. elizabeth: when you saw that, what was your reaction? >> either that she is completely ignorant or in the wrong
6:40 pm
profession or both. look reality, by the time that interview had occurred there was already endless evidence that the fbi had assigned informants to spy on the campaign. i mean just seeking carter page's emails through the fisa request, that in of itself was spying on the campaign. although carter page was off the campaign by the time they secured that fisa warrant, it included emails from the time on his campaign. that is surveillance of the campaign itself. anybody who has a conscience who has been following this story could admit that, but that was yet again i think sort of the media's, corporate media broadly , their willingness to buy into the left-wing storylines here, only accelerated the abuse of the american people's will to put that guy in office, to allow him to be president and not be encumbered by domestic opponents. elizabeth: fisa court wiretaps mint for terrorists were used on the campaign. i'm not sure why lesley stahl
6:41 pm
didn't pick up on that. computer scientists, computer researchers hired by the clinton campaign who were basically, you know, tracking already working for the federal government tracking white house executive office building internet traffic. looking who the trump team was communicating with. so, i don't know, so what is the definition of spying then? >> i know. elizabeth: vince colanese. we'll have you on soon. good to see you again. >> thank you. elizabeth: coming up a new report. big tech censorship we have information coming in. censorship of conservatives by silicon valley worse than realized. it is not just burying the hunter biden scandal. there is much, much more. the story is next on "the evening edit." >> collusion between the biden family, big tech and of course the mainstream media to deliver to the american people only what they find suitable. new projects means new project managers. you need to hire. i need indeed. indeed you do.

for whatever reason. seems to me that most news organizations, responsibility news organization, periodically need to look at their news coverage as a whole. say are we giving equal treatment to both sides? are we using the same standard of newsworthiness that help conservatives for stories that help liberals. elizabeth: that is an important point. special media platforms should be required to serve everybody. should be like a public utility or a railroad. it is not just about burying the hunter biden scandal. again and again it is how much more. it is how the media is framing the story. listen to what happened in the coverage of the hunter biden laptop story. >> the u.s. authorities are seeing if the emails we just talked about are connected to an ongoing russian disinformation effort. >> it is so obviously a russian operation. >> hunter biden, this laptop, that intelligence officials have warned is likely russian disinformation. >> i'm going russian disinformation effort. >> ongoing russian disinformation effort.

>> all of a sudden 2 1/2 weeks before the election this laptop appears somehow. elizabeth: so you know, the problem here, tom, when james clapper and the media go on say flat-out it is russia disinformation, the conclusion where the mind comes to rest, they stopped. even 50 intelligence officials, i think it was 51 including james clapper, well, there was caveat a footnote to this. we don't really note. this is speculation. it is our opinion but james clapper didn't go on the media and say that, right? >> yeah. there are a few things going on here. i guess the first i love that clip because really illustrates the pack mentality that permeates so much of the media. some official says something. everyone immediately parrots it almost word for word. the second thing, as you note, it's a lack of qualifications. it is saying things to a certainty. when in fact they have no idea what they're talking about. they're not certain about it at all but present it as a

god-given fact. elizabeth: "new york times" editorial board declared last week, people should be able to express unpopular positions without being canceled or shut out of public discourse. we need a free flow of information. it is essential for democracy to function. that is the "new york times" editors but god help you if you have a different opinion from somebody else, anywhere. i don't know if it got worse because of social media, because how the media is reporting things, but you are shut down and silencessed. you're mistreated and abused if you have a different opinion from somebody else. the tolerant, intolerant left has gone off the rails when it comes to this. it is like you can't talk to them if you don't agree with them. if you don't agree with them, you're silenced. >> yeah. look, it is not that often i agree with an editorial in "the new york times" but i thought there is a lot of wisdom in this one. today, on college campuses for example, you routinely hear about conservative speakers
6:50 pm
getting shouted down, which is crazy. the first amendment protects your right to free speech. it doesn't protect your right not to be offended by someone else exercising their right to free speech. we're all about a free exchange of ideas. that is how you learn, how you test your own beliefs. so many sectors of our countries, universities, schools, campuses. there is not much free speech anymore unfortunately. elizabeth: got it, tom dupree. sort of like the joke they're so open-minded their brains fell out, you see the back of their heads i guess intolerant left. elbow shot from me, tom dupree. moving on, it is not just attacks on cops, it is also assault of border patrol now on the rise. border states, border patrol bracing for a new on shout of illegal immigrants. the story will get worse. the white house is poised to get rid of a major trump border policy next on "the evening edit." >> what is happening is, you have individuals who may have

general mark brnovich, good to have you back on. let's show an alleged cartel pointing a rifle at the helicopter flying thin near the u.s. mexico border. border patrol has risen during the first five months of this year, it's up 30% versus last year. border patrol is getting worse there? >> we know mike you and i have spoken about this before, the biden administration essentially seized control to the gangs and control to the cartel. as a result, we seen the power of cartel rise and the brazenness of the cartel has risen from is not about endangering border patrol, local communities in arizona, we are seeing half a dozen pursuits from a high-speed pursuit. a dramatic increase in pursuit like peanut county, just north of the border so cartel are endangering lives of everyone here in america and essentially now 80% of the country's
6:56 pm
fentanyl supply is flowing through arizona. liz: we got nearly 200 assault, i think it 194 in the first five months of this fiscal year versus 149 assault and attacks on border patrol. they are getting anything from rocks they are getting shot at and on and on. when you see this happening, the tweet from the shadows saying border patrol agent, it's a threat every day. now title 42 may be listed, what happened next? >> i think the question hard-working americans ask somebody who grew up in arizona, what are you doing in washington d.c.? two people not understand the impact their policies are having on hard-working american taxpayers? the fact that the biden administration or anyone is considering trying to continue to decriminalize illegal immigration and now another 12
6:57 pm
from border patrol title 42 which makes it so we can stop people illegally entering our country? just this week, we want a case where the biden administration tried to stop deporting people with deportation orders so people, the criminals, people accused of serious crimes, convicted of crimes being released into our communities out of jails and prisons because ice is not picking them up to the biden administration is getting ice and essentially seizing control of cartel and as a result we are seeing a dramatic inflow of methamphetamines, fentanyl into our country and we are seeing an increase in violence. this ultimately will result in americans dying because of the failed policies of the biden administration. liz: we hear you loud and clear. even independent, and maine, he's calling the white house
6:58 pm
saying it's inexcusable the amount of drugs flooding across the border. he saying right now shocking statistics, we are only intercepting 25% of drug shipments we know of and baddest inexcusable. >> what the biden administration has done is he's allowed the cartel to seize operational control and exploit this, incentivizing people coming so you have literally groups of migrants coming across and border patrol will process them and the cartel sent over loads and loads of drugs which are poisoning our communities. additionally as a result of the prophet they are making, it's increasing their power and prestige. they are going to undermine legitimate government in mexico and make our communities less safe and more dangerous because of the violence and then you throw on top of it -- deadly. we saw a couple of weeks ago in florida army cadet and u.s. military academy in new york,
6:59 pm
the army academy were dying of drug and fentanyl overdoses so it's affecting everyone matter where you are from, no matter how much money you make, upper or middle-class, it doesn't matter. people are dying as a result -- of these policies. liz: how do you get the white house and democrat party, how do you get d.c. to stand up and everybody agree this truly is a national security crisis? ask what congressman angus king is saying -- senator. >> this won't last just one new cycle, it's a multigenerational problem. for example we have cartel kelly senator from arizona, no one should be voting for a judicial nominee or atf nominee, any federal appointment until we get control of our southern border. the president of united states, federal governments have had impacts when it comes to
7:00 pm
national security and border security. i will tell you, as someone in law enforcement, when you hear these stories about people from i ramping arrested and released into our communities without any notice or process, we are going to be in danger because of this. liz: tanks for joining us, good to see her. i'm elizabeth macdonald, cuban watching the evening at my foxbusiness. you for watching, we hope you have a good evening. ♪♪ kennedy: staggering development out of white ukraine, the white house saying plans for what to do if russia launches a nuclear or chemical attack. it comes amid work russians kidnapped nearly half a million ukrainians. but man of mercy are their countrymen fighting back hard. pretty back -- grammies over there. look at this video, massive russian military supply ship burning and exploding after ukrain
