russia and putin. you know the great scapegoat in someone else. >> todd: it's a slight -- >> carley: i think americans know what's going on. they have seen it sean, also, point well taken. thank you so much for joining us this morning on this very busy wednesday. >> todd: and with that. >> carley: good to be with you. >> todd: like wvmentz our friends at "fox & friends" continue our coverage right now. >> authorizing president putin to use military force. >> meanwhile new satellite images show more and more russian hardware moving toward the border. >> all of this according to nato officials is part of an plan for imminent russian invasion. >> russian tanks going into eastern ukraine. president biden announced what he called the first tranche of sanctions. >> defending freedom will have cost for us as well. >> right now it looks like putin gets ukraine and we get higher gas prices. >> republicans slamming joe biden's response to putin as weak. >> he needs to do more than just freeze the bank accounts of

russian oligarchs and businesses. we have to hit them where it hurts. ♪ >> we start with a fox news alert. breaking news, ukraine is on high alert today over fears that russia will launch a full-scale attack. >> pete: overnight russian tanks moving in hours after the white house announced new saxes on vladimir putin. steve. >> steve: hair began is leading our coverage once again from the capital of kyiv which may soon be under a state of emergency that could be true, steve. yesterday, as well actually earlier your day sounds like the president called up the reserves and said come on, save your country. , that's right, steve. things getting more and more alarming. we could see a state of emergency if there is a full scale russian invasion we could see martial law. that would be the military would be in charge here. that's what will happen if there is invasion. meantime though sanctions not just by the u.s. but by more than 20 countries against

russia. they mainly target russian banks, financial institutions, and some of the elite people close to the kremlin. u.s. officials have been clear to say that this is just the first round of sanctions, that they can ramp them up depending on russia's behavior. in the meantime it was clearly seen yesterday how russian tanks and armor personnel carriers by the columns coaled into eastern ukraine break away regions of done nets and luhansk. 2.5 million people now live in that disputed territory and u.s. president biden was clear to say this is a russian invasion. we have moved equipment already in europe strengthen our allies litt stone i can't latvia and lithuania. we have no intention of fighting

russia. >> those first forces by president biden will initially be sent to the baltic nations and ukraine has just announced it is advising its citizens to leave russia. it's going to effect as many as 3 million people. guys back to you. >> i know that the president, mr. zelenskyy today, your time there in ukraine, also told the people hey, do us a favor don't panic. do you sense panic? are people going to the bank and taking a bunch of money snout are people looking to the exits? >> there is not panic on the streets of this city. people are not lining up at atms, they are not filling their gas tanks and they're not running away. that's been good for ukraine's economy. keep in mind the kind of attack that they are talking about is a massive ballistic missile attack. so, how do you prepare for that? you either leave, if you have the money, pull your kids out, leave your job, leave your home, or put your medicine and your

papers, your documents in a bag next to your bag and find a subway or basement you are going to hide. in those really are europe only two choices because of the nature of the attack that these people now face. >> ainsley: that's terrifying. we are worried about the gas prices and prices of food going up. over there, where you are, they are worried about their lives. many of them are next guest is a resident of ukraine he says, we are going to talk to him coming up. he said it's the foreigners who are panicking not the people who live in ukraine because they are used to this kind of thing. steve, thank you very much. >> steve: stay safe. ukraine is around-half way around the world. a lot of people don't understand how it is all working out with map and stuff. so pete right now is going to show us. a little show and tell on what things used to look like and what putin would like it to look like in the future. >> pete: kind of a little bit like election night, steve. talking strategy on the polls. electric night everybody wants to know district by district and county by county how did it mean

and how did we get here? we'll break it down this morning the situation in eastern europe. these are the boundaries of the former soviet union. these should be in he red, there would be a crescent there. the ussr. urk on the far western border, the bread basket of europe and provide 25% of all of the agriculture to russia. integral sphere of influence. baltic countries in the north as well. conflict in georgia in 2000 will. >> kazakhstan also broke off. >> steve: show us where crimea? >> crimia, right here the bottom part in the we'll be right back black sea. significant because it provides a deep water port to vladimir putin. also, a southern route into the country should he decide to invade. >> steve: answered took it. >> and he took n 2014. this is what europe looks like right now. 15 break away republics after the fall of soviet union. most of which are not members of nato.

notably belarus still a client state of it russia. we will learn more about why they are significant because ever thage not around after the soviet union fell obviously. nato came about after the end of world war ii. nato has expanded since then. that's what vladimir putin claims is a threat to his existence. meant to hold back soviet expansion. the one entity that has expanded nato expanded. this is what vladimir putin looked at in 2004 into the baltic states into he is stonia, latvia and lithuania on the border of russia. what vladimir putin is claiming right now is should ukraine attempt to join nato which they have put in an application for, that would be right on russia's doorstep. so,. >> steve: he wants a buffer. >> he wants a buffer. right now traditionally nato has been centered in the western part of europe.

it has moved eastward, which vladimir putin has said from his perspective is a threat toe him with troops surrounding him even more. let's get to the military position. because this is the interesting part of it. you have got the break away provinces here which by the way the most significant combat power for the ukrainians is in this region donbas region down here the two break away into new independent states right down here there has been fighting there since 2014 ongoing. this is crimea as steve mentioned which was seized in 2014 as well. you also have -- you have sea, air and land. this is where vladimir putin would have a lot of advantage. he could succeed the only port available to ukraine. there is also significant surface to surface missiles. we go backwards to the other area if we could baltic sea. client of belarus they have been doing so-called military exercises for weeks which have now been extended. so, if traditionally you think

the invasion might come from the east. the vulnerability for kyiv envelopement movement. vladimir putin comes in from the north, comes in from the south and then uses light infantry and airborne special operations troops inside the country at which point you are under siege from inside and outside. >> steve: will you show us where the tanks are right now? >> pete: you have a lot of tanks here. i think we just moved it got a lot of tanks here. tanks up north as well. most of their elite light infantry units are on the frontline move fast. mechanized. light infan trip. the idea is to move quick. bring traditional forces behind it another interesting part of this, steve, a lot of ships that the russians have in the black sea were previously deployed all around the world. likewise with russian troops all the way on the chinese border. they have put 06% of their combat power in and around ukraine as we have noted 100,000 troops.

110,000 troops. 150,000 troops said they were leaving, instead they are moving. in as far as u.s. positions right now. we know we have poops in poland. long had troops in germany. just deployed troops to estonia and lithuania. now the americans and nato are encircling me. >> steve: they're the aggressors. pete pee he is going to go to the audience and say deployment of u.s. troops means we are under siege we are the ones under attack which you will see the propaganda go back in both directions, again, these are the rebel controlled areas that he recentry declared independent and sent in peace keepers. >> ainsley: i know beauty love to control the black sea does he stop at these two regions? if he moves farther out of these two regions we could see him encompass all of ukraine. >> pete: that's the calculation he has to make. he has enough troops people believe to seize kyiv, to make a

siege on most of the country but not enough troops to hold that land. the complication becomes not whether you can take it or whether you can hold it which is a lesson those of you was in the iraq and afghan war understand quite well. one thing to defeat and topple a regime another thing to control it especially because these regions here, many of which are largely russian-speaking have a bit more of a historical connection to russia. and, therefore, might be more apt to be welcoming might not be the right word but open to the idea of a russian occupation. the further you move west, the more likely you have younger generations of ukrainians who want to be oriented towards europe and want nothing to do with being russian speaking people they don't speak russian either. it becomes a lot more imlicketd. let's put a bow tie on this real quick why it matters to us. we heard from jesse watters in the next clip about that. energy. from as far as back from rondell arresting in the 1980s he warned should russia be allowed to you build a pipeline that bypassed ukraine or bypassed

poland, they being would have increasing amount of leverage on germany and the west. right now germany gets 60% of its energy, 60% of its oil and gas from russia. through nord stream 1 which is currently and still operational. nord stream 2 would limit future exports but they still have nord stream 1. the other pipeline that go from russia to europe all go -- all of them either go through ukraine, which is down here, multiple of them or if they go through belarus controlled by russia. dictator controlled by russia, they go through poland, which means russia is dependent at some level on nato or western countries for their energy supply which could be stopped. if these nord stream 2 is allowed to happen, you already have nord stream 1. you see why if he decides to cut off the gas, he could turn off the lights. >> joe biden could say we are going to reopen the keystone pipeline. we will be energy independent. we'vehelp you. we will send oil and gas so you don't have to depend on russia.

>> pete: that's exactly right. we geraldo on sean's show last night. donald trump talking about brow beating germany for quite some time. >> ainsley: he played a 5-minute clip montage of what donald trump has said in the past. pete beat we are going to build that pipeline we want to be energy independent. quiewrp should do the same. part of a grand bargain after the fall soviet union. if we open up economically to energy resources maybe they will open up politically and become more free. instead, china enriched itself and on the russian they have taken advantage of a massive exporter of oil and used it to put their thumb on europe. you want to mess with us? we can shut off the gas and oil. ukraine incredibly significant for resources for russia. agricultural, mineral, oil and gas, long kind of the under belly of a lot of a strength of russia when they lost it. they realized they had vulnerabilities and part of what vladimir putins to get it back. ains whants reach for angela

merkel when she was the german chancellor, what was the reason for her getting rid of all of of these nuclear facilities she could have created so much clean energy with those. >> pete: great question. steve, you might have thoughts. nuclear energy is cleaner. >> steve: right now france is moving toward more nuclear exant. they're also importing u.s. liquid natural gas. >> pete: most of their fracture turning into larr income. some of it is the residue that nuclear sun safe and had those accidents. >> steve: 3-mile island 50 years ago. >> pete: it's an answer and mystifying. there is a lot of interest involved. a lot of international business interest. the oligarchs when they get hit. oil and gas is going to go up big time. >> steve: thank you very much. excellent job. we hear about all of these places and we don't know how they all fit together and when you see them on a map it starts to make sense puzzle pieces. >> pete: still a long ways away

a lot of complications. putin is poised should he want to make a move. >> steve: nobody knows more about oil and gas than rick perry he was the great governor of texas and energy secretary as well. he is going to be joining us along with johnny earns and kristi noem from south dakota. >> ainsley: the conflict overseaing can be felt all over the world. the ukrainian resident describes the situation on the ground as we are breaking down financial impact here at home. >> steve: as joe biden steps back on the world stage his administration finally addresses this one why jen psaki says the president used a fake white house set when the real white house is across the street.

♪ >> ainsley: ukrainians are on high alert and could soon be under a state of emergency as putin sends in troops to break away regions and our next guest runs humanitarian organization in ukraine providing assistance to the citizens that are looking to escape the region. ceo of zola ukraine joins us now. good morning to you. >> good morning, good morning. how are you? >> we are doing well. we are so sorry for everything you are going through. we are all praying for you guys. >> thank you so much. >> ainsley: you are welcome. i know you told us earlier no one gets it until your own boots are on the ground. you obviously are there on the ground. what are you seeing? >> so, it's very difficult to understand the situation like i said before. if you are not on the ground here because there is a lot of chaos when it comes to being fed by the media. basically at the moment i'm right now in cherkasy not far

from the repub blah of a russian territory for many years. we are located there. we have around me you can see we have forces with a couple of organization there. the police and the city ofage we are going to be all those forces on stand by to evacuated quite a few families over 200 families that will be evacuated to the poland border. and as you can see, are also, we have an israeli red cross ambulance, which came from israel right there. and we are going to try to do our best to get them out at the right moment. in regards to the war, what's going on right now here is i came back from the border from actually from the frontline not long ago, and there is a war. this war has been going on for probably 8 years now. and people need to understand.

the leaders of the big countries we're not going to join forces together and support ukraine in that matter support the agreement of budapest that was signed in 194 and to join forces and help president zelenskyy to get through tough time they are not going to make it if everybody is going to stay aside and say we are going to give you weapons or whatever finance it's not going to work. will years of war for nothing. evan on both sides, the ukrainian side, the russian side. i have spoke to people over the years now they all told me they have no clue why there is a war here. that's my inside on that. >> ainsley: we interviewed your wife last week. i know she evacuated with your children. you are a young couple, a beautiful couple. >> that's true. thank you. ains apes she is in n. israel. why did you feel the need to send her? are you scared for your family? >> i have to tell you there is a lot of pressure for her more

than -- it. >> ainsley: why. >> a lot of pressure from friends and family they are being fed by the media. i think as a precaution i have young children i don't know what's going to happen. everything moves by putin's word. meaning if putin decides to do something he is going to do it and not ask anybody and for sure not me. that's why i'm not going to take any risk and leave my family in a place where there is a risk that everyday, you know, explode and i have young daughter that just was born about six months ago. and i can't take that risk. i listen to everybody. i stay behind to help other people to do whatever i can and that's the reason they are there and i'm here. >> ainsley: i know your organization is a coalition of humanitarian, nongovernmental medical organization. you get funding from ukraine, canada, u.k., france and israel to provide help for the victims of war in ukraine. shlomo. we are asking -- go ahead. >> i get zero funding.

i fund everything myself i don't get any funding. >> ainsley: how do these countries help you? >> so first of all, they give us the permission to work with them. so this is the best support that they can give. i don't know if they have money. but we do the best we can to help them to go through if it's people, if it's children, we actually open not long ago a division of psychological help for kids during this tough time. >> and we are literally have nonstop calling and we have son-in-law psychological people sitting there and henning these people to get through this time you have to understand there is a lot of people who are sitting like ducks and those regions where the war is going on and they have no clue what to do and government. those people don't have money. they don't have medical help. they don't have psychological help. they don't have anything. >> and we arage sitting here and

trying to do our best to get them through this tough time. and this is the most important thing. and i wanted to talk about something else if i may. our organization going campaign to help fund this situation. please whoever can look us up. look our website up and go and please be one of our supporter to be in the frontline and to help those people and the kids that are here and get them out you can see here behind me also we have a lot of buses. if i may turn the camera, you might. >> ainsley: go ahead. what's your website while turning the camera. >> it's www at -- they are here

all day long. not moving anywhere. basically sitting here and ready to get up and leave at notice of moment literally. we are not just going to be, you know, getting our stuff ready if -- at some point we are going to have an issue. we are not going to have the time to go. so we are in touch with the embassy of israel. the embassy of the united states. we are in the embassy of british, the british embassy and french embassy. we are getting info from them in order for us to get the intel and provide it to the people in a way that you know, that nobody can. because we can explain that to them and give them the actual insight of what is going on. >> ainsley: we will send people to your website. [talking at the same time] >> >> ainsley: you are precious. thank you so much. >> look us up on social media,

also. i really appreciate it, thank you so much. >> ainsley: thank you. god bless you all. all right. >> steve: was that excellent it just goes to show you those people are, you know, there are a lot of patriots over there who are standing by, trying to get people out who want to leave. although you have president zelenskyy saying don't panic. in other words, is he saying don't go. and is he saying look the meter is running. >> pete: you have to say that and then state of emergency while you are quietly being prepared. he said nobody knows except the whims of vladimir putin. >> ainsley: he turned the camera and saw the buses they are ready to help people get out and help with medical attention. >> steve: god bless them. in the meantime, you know the big news, the president of the united states, the first tranche of sanctions you know, most cow has beyond at them for the most part. keep in mind over the last 10

years the united states has imsupposed sanctions on russia 100 times. and have we gotten them to stolen doing what they're doing? absolutely not. nevertheless, now this morning russia is warning americans that you will feel the consequences of the u.s. sanctions in things like finances. and also in gas and things like that. and the president made it very clear yesterday we're going to feel it here because of what we're doing. watch this. >> defending freedom will have cost for us as well. if you are at home. we need to be honest about that. by that -- but as we do this, i'm going to take robust action to make sure the page of our sanctions is targeted at the russian economy, not ours. steph steve here's the thing russia is a major exporter of natural gas and wheat. we got our own natural gas. but when it comes to wheat even though i'm from kansas and it is the wheat state, we do get a lot

of wheat from russia as does much of the country. >> ainsley: the world's top wheat supporter. what is russia a really good exporter of? ransomware because, remember a year ago, the colonial pipeline, those russian hackers got in there, disrupted things, next thing you know gas is 8 bucks in north carolina. something like that. the fbi apparently yesterday asked state and local leaders and business executives to consider how ransomware attacks could disrupt the supply chain and their businesses as well. what they suggest and business owners, no, make sure that your antivirus software is up to date. block ransomware site access and only allow authorized apps. if you get an email or something like that that you don't know what it's frovment don't click on the link. that's how they get into your system. boom, just like this. >> pete: all of this might be while biden's job approval rating continues to be in the

tank. overall, 41%. you look as at on the situation with russia. even lower, 36%. the promise he made guys throughout was our goal is to deter. and if your goal is to deter and then a war breaks out, you failed in your objective that you are telling the american people. and oh by the way if you cancel the xl keystone pipeline that you now unapprove and energy flow there gas prices go up point the finger in one direction. >> ainsley: listener to what jesse watters said. >> joe is running out of friends and options. he was telling us he was putin's worst enemy. the minute joe got into office he dropped sanctions on russia's pipeline to germany and killed our pipeline from canada. this does feel like a war has begun. it didn't take long for americans to feel it in their bank accounts. people don't care about russia and ukraine the way the europeans do. we care about our money, our borders and our severity.

we just want biden to do something for us for once not his donors, not the allies and his family members. just once for us. >> steve: here is the interesting thing. after germany, it was germany who made the first modify yesterday during our show, pulled the plug on nord stream 2. now the russians are warning germany you know what? that's what you going to do? you will be paying double within weeks, days? >> ainsley: it would be a wonderful opportunity for him to say i'm going to open up the keystone pipeline and i'm sorry, progressives. i'm sorry environmentalists. >> steve: he will never do that in 1 million years. >> ainsley: experiencing gas prices. >> pete: break down the maps. it's hard to care when they're hemming and hawing invasion in europe and we are being invaded in our southern border. why one and not the other? >> steve: that's the latest of what is going on over there. >> pete: ohio senate debate was

house. >> it's really not ethics sighting. it's kind of just an auditorium but because of covid, and because the president wasn't going to travel as much and not as many people were going to come here. they built it out more to make it look a little bit better visually and to ensure that he could kind of engage with people and see them in different boxes. >> press secretary jen psaki revealing on rob lowe's podcast she was inspired to get back in politics after reruns of his hit show west wing. and now we know, steve, over to you. >> steve: we do indeed. carley, thank you very much. >> you are welcome. >> steve: president biden slapping russia fox news alert sanctions putin's move signal an imminent war there. >> russia high schools moved blood and supplies and medical equipment on the border. you don't need blood unless you plan on starting a war. >> steve: that's a great point. but critics say the president's move took a long time and

sanctions meh, not far enough. congressional ukraine caucus co-chair patrick served as fbi agent in ukraine. he joins us right now along with a retired army brigadier and new hampshire senate senate candidate. >> good morning, steve. >> a lot of republicans saying that we are glad there are sanctions why not the big sanctions he is going baby steps. sock him first seahawk and awe essentially with sanctions instead? >> because he is weak, steve. pains me to say that but we have a weak president. these sanctions should have been issued incrementally months ago. we have been briefing this by the way and been getting briefed on the house intelligence committee for months. that the troop build-up was an escalation the likes of which we have never seen. these -- and by the way, rem rel from the swiss banking system that's the ultimate gut punch to vladimir putin? we could end this war before it

begins we do that. but it takesge to do it. the president has yet to do that. >> steve: senator -- sorry, he is running for senate. general, the president about, i don't know, four or five weeks ago mentioned you know will if there is a minor incursion, we seal what happens. it's not an all-out war yet with ukraine. maybe it is that minor incursion and maybe that explains why the president is just taking baby steps when it comes to sanctions they have taken baby steps because of weakness. they walk around with football cleats on. they don't really know what game they are playing in right now and it's very, very serious. i don't mean to sound flippant but the whole idea is we have an imbalance in our national security. here at home and in our foreign policy. and, yes, they are both connected. here at home we should have woke up today with a reversal in our

house intel committee we tell businesses and individuals all the time to make sure your cyber borders are strong and secure. they will try to do that. but it's nothing we can't overcome. we know what their tactics are. we know what their patterns and practices are. we know how to defend against that that should in no way, shape, or form mitigate the amount of sanctions that we impose on russia for declaring war in europe. the effects of this, steve, are going to be terrible. this is not just about ukraine, this is about the baltics, this is about taiwan and a whole host of other issues out there. >> steve: absolutely. general, i will give you the final word. russia is warning americans will feel the consequences of our sanctions. so far what do you think those consequences will be? >> yeah, well, those consequences we are already feeling them, right? we're feeling them at the gas pump. we are feeling them at the grocery store. we are feeling them in our homes with heating. we are feeling them overseas. and as the congressman said, this isn't just about russia.

this is china, iran, north korea, and it is serious business. we need some serious, effective leadership now and i'm afraid we're not going to see it. >> steve: he is running for the u.s. senate from new hampshire. brigadier general don bolduc. brian kirkpatrick. thank you for joining us. >> thank you, steve. >> steve: you bet. harris county texas, home to the city of houston has more than 700 open murder warrants unsolved. wait until you hear how many felony warrants are open as well. the police union president on the dangers this poses to ordinary texans coming up next. ♪ t care. i grow all my own vegetables shingles doesn't care. we've still got the best moves you've ever seen good for you, but shingles doesn't care. because 1 in 3 people will get shingles, you need protection.

the home county for houston, reportedly has more than 50,000 open arrest warrants this morning. half of which is felony warrants and more than 700 are open murder warrants. unsolved murders. >> ainsley: making matters worse while 4,000 to 6,000 new warrants are added each month the department only has 17 people tasked with tracking these offenders down. >> pete: president of the houston police officers union doug griffith joins us now doug i'm going to ask the question. i think we know part of the answer we the number of people charged with doing it why is this such a huge tank that many of which are not found? >> well, a lot of the issues have to do with the fact that our court system has not done their job. we have so many of these warrants that they allow them out on very low bonds and they just don't show back up to court. that's going to be the majority

of these cases you are courts have been closed and trophy do their job. warrants out as you said for murder. over the weekend we had a murder suspect out on a felony bond for murder go out and kill again a 23-year-old college student. this shoud never happen. we have over 16 people out on capital murder bonds. >> steve: absolutely. why aren't they serious about picking these people up that don't show up. why do you only have 17 people investigating? it seems like the county is not really interested in solving the problem. >> well, understand our department, the houston police department we are about 200 police officers short from what we should be. harris county sheriff's department is the same way. county officials have done nothing. the mayor has given us extra classesser year. harris county has not grown whatsoever. they are responsible for keeping up and keeping track of those warrants. we received them but we don't

have the manpower to go out there and search for them the way we should. >> ainsley: why don't you have enough officers? are they just not applying for the job because of what is happening around the country? what about the court system? you were going into that a little bit. you touched on it. can you explain what you meant by that? firm the recruiting efforts we are trying to get in place are difficult right now because of the type of job doing. vilified every time you make a mistake. we understand that this is a job that we took on. now, as far as the warrants go, we can't control how many warrants or how many bonds judges give. we have people on multiple felony bonds, again, we have had over 165 people murdered by someone on multiple felony bonds. that should never happen. you have more than two felony bonds, you are proven you are not going to be a productive member of society need to lock these people up. they refuse to do that. >> pete: when did that bond

system change where we are releasing these people. repeated offenders? >> several years ago the county entered into an agreement over misdemeanor bond reform. and we understand there is people that shouldn't be in jail for misdemeanors because they can't afford it but now we are talking felonies. we are talking murder cases. we are talking aggravated robbery cases. there has been no end to the alleged reform that these judges have in place. we have judges out there that are devout socialists admittedly on their facebook pages wearing defund the police shirts. where have you that kind of problem in the courts we are never going to get past this. >> steve: we had no idea it was that bad down there. i feel sad for all of the families of the victims they must feel like they are not getting justice. thank you for bringing this to our attention. >> ainsley: thanks, doug. >> thank you so much. >> steve: meanwhile, coming up. >> ainsley: unbelievable, right? >> steve: ohio senate debate goes off the rails when an

and not the color of one's skin. the democratic party of today is trying to make everything about skin color. >> pete: yeah, it's true. and candidates have to go into someplaces where the reception might not be immediately friendly and be willing to talk freely. and you heard not just you say it but the moderators say this is america. this is a free exchange of ideas and you are right. when it comes to race we have lost sight of martin luther kingens vision and instead made it all about race. i want to modify to facebook real quick for a second as well. you had a facebook post that you put up that facebook took down. here's the post that you put up. it said veterans before illegals. illegal immigrants should be deported not supported with american tax dollars. there are thousands of veterans living under bridges, they must be our priority. facebook suspended you for 24 hours saying it violated their policies on hate speech. where is it now? >> we complained to facebook. we said to facebook listen, i'm a marine, i did a couple tours

in iraq. i also came back home and served on the honor guard for multiple marine funerals. but marines who were killed in iraq and afghanistan and older marine vets who served in vietnam and korea and world war ii. and we said to facebook. this is just sad what you're doing by stomping on the memory and the honor of u.s. veterans. of course we should put veterans, american, united states military veterans ahead of illegal immigrants who are felons from other countries. there is no question about it. listen, i don't care if you are a democrat, republican, independent, libertarian, religion is terrible, whatever you are, 99.9% of america thinks we should put military veterans ahead of illegal immigrants but these. >> pete: i don't mean to cut you off. we don't have much time. facebook said it was a mistake. do you believe that? >> of course not. and, listen, i was able to complain and get put back on there. but if you are joe and jane six

all this just miles from the border with ukraine. meantime in eastern ukraine columns of russian tanks and armored vehicles, heavy artillery continues to arrive there the amount of area that russia has claimed there, that russia has recognized as independent is massive. far more than the separatists control. 2.5 million people live in that territory fighting over it in the very near future. in the meantime president biden saying he is sending more troops to the baltic region to counter what he is now calling a russian invasion. >> this is the beginning of a russian invasion of ukraine. i have authorized additional movement of u.s. forces and equipment already stationed in europe to strengthen our baltic allies, he is stonia, latvia and lithuania. let me be clear these are defensive moves on our part. we have no intention of fighting russia.

>> if there is a widespread invasion we could see martial law here. back to you. >> ainsley: let's bring in iowa senator joni ernst. good morning to you. >> yes. good morning, ainsley. hello. >> ainsley: well, it seems that, senator, that we had -- we knew this was going to happen. these are democrats, joe biden's secretary of state blinken said putin planned all along to invade. james clapper said we should have taken action sooner. listen to some of these soundbites and get your reaction on the other side. >> now that we have heard it directly from president putin himself, it confirm what is we have been saying. that he did not send more than 150,000 troops to the ukrainian border because of the denying military exercises or threaten ukraine. or stop fabricated genocide by ukraine or any other manufactured reason. his plan all along has been to invade ukraine to control

ukraine and its people. destroy ukraine's democracy which offers a stark contrast to the auto to come crazy that he leads reclaim ukraine as a part of russia. >> do you wish that obama had done harsher, stricter sanctions in 2014. >> yes, i wish we had been more aggressive in 2014. >> ainsley: senator, if biden knew, if obama knew, why didn't they do something sooner? >> exactly, that's the point. as secretary blinken, we have been telling you this for months now. we knew that putin's intention was to invade ukraine and not just take these areas in eastern ukraine but a full on onslaught against the people of ukraine and its sovereignty. so it's almost a little too late at this point but what we need to do as americans is to push

back on president putin. go after him personally. putin and his cronies. kick russia out of the swiss banking system. stop nord stream 2 forever. ramp up american energy and get away from russian oil dependence. let's start taking some very firm actions. let's bolster up our nato allies and provide more lethal aid to the ukrainians as well as intelligence sharing. these are all things that we should have done long ago. putin only understands strength and power and this administration has failed. >> steve: well, you know, joe biden was the vice president during the obama administration. so, he was part of the administration said yeah i winner we would have done more. now joe biden has the nuclear football. you know, senator. obviously, vladimir putin as we see the tanks roll in, from russia, he knew that the united

states are and the world was going to hit him with sanctions. buff, you know, the last time we hit him with sanctions big ones in 2014, putin has since had 17 years to make his country $1.5 trillion economy more insulated against any sanctions. and i think his political and military calculation is those sanctions from the u.s. are worth what he is going to get out of it. because he wants more of ukraine to return the form other so ever union to its original splendor. >> absolutely he does. this is his intention. we have known that all along. he certainly wants to take ukraine. he took georgia. he took crimea. and what did the world do? absolutely nothing. so we need to step up our game. we need to make sure we are pushing firmly back against president putin. again, we need to bolster nato allies. and we need this president to show some strong resolve against

president putin. so, please, mr. president, step up make sure that you are doing the right thing because instability in europe does effect the safety and security of americans here at home. >> pete: senator, is nato up to the task? and i say that as someone who has served with nato troops elsewhere and seen frankly the limits of political caveats of the limited capabilities that a lot of these allies have we joke the isaf patch, i saw americans fighting. is this really an alliance that should putin push the worst case scenario prepared, given its dependence on energy from russia. prepared to stare down vladimir putin. or are they still looking at the united states across the atlantic come save us because there is not much appetite in this country. >> yeah, pete. and certainly i served in iraq as well and fully understand the meaning of that patch.

certainly, america does lead and we would lead nato as well. but this is where we need those countries involved in nato to come together and make sure they have the commitment. this is very important. they have every one of our nato allies understands the significance of russia invading ukraine. i was at the munich security conference. i do believe they understand the importance of this. and so i do feel that we can come together and it will take american leadership. those troops that belong to nato, they certainly do appreciate the great perspective and leadership that comes from the americans fighting man and woman. >> senator. it was announced that iowa's governor kim reynolds is going to deliver the republican response after joe biden's state of the union address. i know you did this in 2015. in your camo heels. you had just been elected as the

republican nature. what advice do you have for her? what do you expect her to say? >> i'm so excited she is a dear friend of mine. she is the perfect choice to give the republican address following president biden's state of the union. here we have a president one year into this administration that has not done anything about the crisis on our southern border, has really failed when it comes to covid policy, but, here we have a governor, governor kim reynolds who believes in freedom and liberty, has stood up for parents and for families. she is a compassionate leader. she is shown strength through so many challenges. i'm just -- you can tell i'm just really really excited about having her on the american stage. she is a tremendous leader and

as an iowan i'm so proud. >> steve: you would be appearing after the president after the state of the union. the republican rebuttal. you will see it on fox, of course. of the president, as you know, will be giving the state of the union, he is deeply unpopular with the american public you, according to the latest gallup poll, hills approval rating right now is at -- okay, overall number right there. is 41. look at that a majority, 55% disapprove of what he is doing in the white house. and 55% disapprove of how he is handling the situation with russia. and, you know, you are from iowa. i was born in iowa. i know the people of iowa are watching what's going on in ukraine and they go, you know, it's so far away from here. it's not going to hit me until they go and fill up their gas tanks and until the cyber hackers in a day or two or week start flipping the lights in

downtown des moines. >> yeah. exactly, steve. you are spot on. everything that happens in ukraine is going to eventually reflect here in the great state of iowa and across the nation it will impact the markets. we have seen that already. so, folks that are retirement age, they will likely see a difference coming up. and certainly our energy dependence on russia has grown in this administration. so, again, we need to ramp up our own energy independence here in the united states. we can do that. it is this administration that has made us more reliant on russian oil. so,, this does effect iowans. and instability in europe will eventually effect the safety and security of all americans. and believe you and me, steve, we know that other countries are watching. so, it could be china as they think about taiwan it could be

iran as we enter into another disastrous nuclear deal. i mean, there are so many consequences poor leadership here in the united states you have america. again, i keep encouraging president biden, step it up, man. we have got to be stronger in our resolve when it comes to those adversaries. >> steve: when it comes to our adversaries in the cyber world, the russian hackers are expert at, you know, evading our security measures. so i'm sure, and you are not going to talk about this, but i'm sure the department of homeland security has warned your senate office beware but at the same time, do you feel the administration has warned american businesses enough about the threat of cyber hacks, of ransomware, of knocking out our internet in some way? >> no, i don't feel that the administration has been proactive about this. and it is something that we have worked on in congress for a

number of years and, yet, we don't have an administration that is leading on this issue. for heaven's sake. we have a president that can't be firm with president putin as he invading a sovereign country. you think he would be able to warn our business community. but we haven't seen that level of engagement. so you are absolutely correct and that cyber hackers are out there. we see it coming from russia. we see it coming from china. we know that they try and get into our governmental system as well as our private industry system every single day. this is where our administration really needs to step up and encourage all of these businesses to make sure that they have put the protective measures in place to safeguard against russian hackers. they are already trying to do it. we need to make sure that our american businesses are protected.

>> pete: senator joni ernst thank you for joining us on "fox & friends." >> thank you. >> pete: one of the more demoralizing pieces joe biden step up your game under a realize he is not capable of stepping up his game and they're caught in the orthodoxy of their foreign policy view and they are not going to change their views like energy at the border so wedded to the left. it's a demoralizing feeling as an american when you want to see strength and leadership. >> ainsley: you know the solution. it all goes down to energy independence. he is not going to do anything about it the gas prices are going to go up. heating bills going to go up. food they are not willing to do anything about it. >> steve: and when the cyber hackers from russia hacked into the colonial pipeline one year ago u. the brought the energy in the eastern seaboard to a grinding halt. and last year not as many businesses have hardened their deferences against cyber warfare

as should and russia knows exactly who they are. >> pete: you are right. that's the variable that i don't think most people in our government have their eye on. you want to talk about a miscalculation on the battlefield, that's one thing. a whole other thing when our government is not prepared for what will come here and affect our businesses and our people. how do you respond? what's the military response to an overwhelming cyberattack? feckless. >> ainsley: you are right to ask these questions because you have to be proactive and think ahead how this did effect us down the road because haven't done that when you look at russia. they predicted this. the democrats are saying they predicted this. then why didn't they do something about it? >> steve: we have never had a cyber war before with a super power like that. and i bet you a week from today we are are talking about how there are hackers messing with our stuff on the internet. >> ainsley: i believe it. >> steve: quarter after the top of the hour carley joins us right now. >> carley: certainly do. a lot of news to get. to say black smoke billowing from the site of a military

gascon about it the only reason george gascon has even made any changes is not because of the community, it's because he knew he was going to be exposed by fox news and the media and he went into panic mode and self-preservation that had nothing to do with helping anybody in the community. >> ainsley: what about the victim? >> it is. it is way too late. but what is happening now is he is actually not telling the truth about certain things. he then sent out people in his chain of commands to say that he didn't know anything about the jail calls. the problem with that is that there are emails and have shown them to fox that show as early as february 2nd george gascon's chain of command asked for those jail calls and those jail calls were sent through the chain of command. they indicate that they wanted the jail calls and the prosecutor sent them those jail calls. and so either george gascon is not telling the truth or is he actually admitting to everybody that he is incompetent and is he

a bad manager and he failed to listen to any of those jail calls and if he did do that, if he failed to listen to any of those jail calls, that is a travesty for the victim in this case who was brutally molested and she didn't get justice. >> ainsley: john the victim was 10 years old. 2014. tubbs was an adult, linked tubbs to this in 2019. as an adult, gascon then says you are going to juvi, even though you are an adult you were only a few weeks from turning 18 when you did this crime. i will still put new juvi as an adult. this is what the victim said. she says the things he did to me and made me do that day was beyond horrible for a 10-year-old girl to have to go through. i want him tried as an adult for the crimes he committed against me. can you imagine, john, if this were your 10-year-old daughter or if gascon had a 10-year-old daughter and it happened to her in a denny's bathroom and the person who did this to her goes

to juvi and is not worried and is gloating to the father about i got away with this. no big deal. >> i have a 7-year-old daughter. i also have been fighting for children. i handle child murders. evan doing that for the last six years. i fight for children all over los angeles. what george gascon did is absolutely despicable. it's unbecoming of a district attorney. he has also blamed the victim. he has blamed a child sexual assault victim. i want to see all of these individuals from the president to kamala harris to all these individuals come out and denounce george gascon. the president endorsed him. kamala harris endorsed him. governor newsom endorsed him. i want them all to come out and denounce what george gascon did and stand with all victims and children and i want to see them do that today. >> ainsley: you can molest a child, you need to get locked up. ridiculous. thank you so much, jon, for

coming on. >> thank you. >> ainsley: you are welcome. a live look at the city of ukraine. a country on high alert. charles payne on how the conflict in eastern europe will cost us here at home. ♪ chronic migraine, 15 or more headache days a month each lasting 4 hours or more, you're not the only one with questions about botox®. botox® prevents headaches in adults with chronic migraine before they even start, with about 10 minutes of treatment once every 3 months. so, ask your doctor if botox® is right for you, and if a sample is available. effects of botox® may spread hours to weeks after injection causing serious symptoms. alert your doctor right away, as difficulty swallowing, speaking, breathing, eye problems, or muscle weakness can be signs of a life-threatening condition. side effects may include allergic reactions, neck and injection site pain, fatigue, and headache. don't receive botox® if there's a skin infection. tell your doctor your medical history, muscle or nerve conditions and medications,

deceive steve the threat of a war in ukraine driving oil prices to surge dramatically to almost a hundred bucks a barrel. crypto currencies taking a hit with bitcoin sinking to lowest level in more than two weeks. here to discuss the impact of the escalation on the u.s. economy air force veteran and host of making money on fox business charles payne. charles, good morning to you. >> good morning. >> steve: so much of this is oil. and europe has had the opportunity over the last decade or two to wean themselves away from russian oil but still gas station. >> they have weaned themselves off of the fossil fuels and that's be a pro. it's a cautionary tale for america. it really is because obviously anybody watching this show now has filled up their tank to heat their homes. this whole nation that we ever fighting this eminent danger of climate change and therefore we must sacrifice. we are making a sacrifice and it's hardworking middle class

people and in the process we have not only enriched vladimir putin but we have also emboldened him. so when you have a country like germany with 36% or so of their natural gas from russia, italy heavily relies on them as well. shutting off nuclear power. i got to tell you, it's really mind boggling how they have gone down this path. they have set themselves up. and they have empowered someone who -- we have always known affinity for reuniting the old ussr and trying to make it possible. >> steve: of course, when joe biden came, in first thing he did was he green lighted nord stream 2. pulled the plug on our pipeline and overs last couple of years. when you look between -- over the last three or four years, the number of barrels of oil we import from russia has gone up 55%. in 2017 it was 11.5 million barrels. and as of november of 2021, it

was almost 18 million barrels. so now we need them, too. >> there were a couple months last year where it was 23 million. 24 million. 25 million barrels a month. last year. remember when o biden -- [laughter] president biden said he implored opec to produce more oil instead of. >> steve: hey, oklahoma, help us out. >> it's a gift. it's a fracking miracle a gift to the american public. listen, you could be the most ardent climate change believer in the world. a to get from a to b to a point where we are completely off fossil fuels and we have the infrastructure, you know, like electric charging stations and things like that, until then, this is economic suicide and also becomes defense suicide. we -- and so we have empowered potential foes around the world. we are begging saudi arabia and

russia to send more oil while we punish american producers. it's so backwards. it's almost baffling to believe how backwards this is. >> steve: you have got so much to talk about today at 2:00 in the afternoon. >> charles has got a great special program. celebrate black history month and talking all about how to achieve the american dream. >> you know, black history month typically is a celebration of the past. heroes of the past and things we have overcome. more recently it's been more about the bad things that have happened and atrocities. my focus today is the future. how can we control the future because our destiny as black americans is in our hands. the most beautiful thing we live in the greatest country in the world and we can make our dreams come true. we have to untether ourselves from fighting the battles that have already been fought and focus on the future. by the way amazing for everyone. we are in the midst of the fourth industrial revolution. things are amazing. amazing panel of both accomplished people and excited about youngests i have who are

actually doing it themselves. i can't wait. it's going to be a great special. >> steve: kicks off today 2:00 eastern fox business. >> thank you. >> steve: thank you, charles. as president biden prepares to deliver his state of the union speech on march 1st. we are taking a look at the real state of the union in america, affairs in america. carley shimkus went to texas and asked real families about how their family affairs in the border cries is interacting them and their stories. you have got to hear them coming up next. look at that. >> having to discuss with them what to do if they are out here and somebody attacks them. what to do if somebody breaks into the house. we deal with it every single day we can no longer go somewhere as a family, somebody has to stay behind. >> you can get every other month. cabenuva helps keep me undetectable. it's two injections, given by a healthcare provider every other month.

it's one less thing to think about while traveling. hiv pills aren't on my mind. a quick change in my plans is no big deal. don't receive cabenuva if you're allergic to its ingredients or taking certain medicines, which may interact with cabenuva. serious side effects include allergic reactions, post-injection reactions, liver problems, and depression. if you have a rash and other allergic reaction symptoms, stop cabenuva and get medical help right away. tell your doctor if you have liver problems or mental health concerns, and if you are pregnant, breastfeeding, or considering pregnancy. some of the most common side effects include injection-site reactions, fever, and tiredness. if you switch to cabenuva, attend all treatment appointments. every other month and i'm good to go. ask your doctor about every-other-month cabenuva. this isn't just freight. every other month and i'm good to go. these aren't just shipments. they're promises. big promises. small promises. cuddly shaped promises. each with a time and a place they've been promised to be.

is focused on ukraine right now. americans are worried about the border crisis here at home, too. >> steve: carley shimkus went down to laredo, texas to talk to an american family impacted by the crisis. she joins us now. carley, i wonder if the president is going to be talking about the border next week. >> highly doubtful. we did talk to hardworking texas ranchers who no longer feel safe in their own home because almost every single day there are illegal immigrants crossing through their property. to them this border issue isn't just a safety concern. it's also a financial burden and they are not alone. watch this. >> >> i'm speaking for all of us down here, we feel abandoned. nobody seems to care in the biden administration. nobody has been down here. it doesn't seem that they are doing anything to help us.

>> i know that you have lived in this area in your whole entire life. when did you notice a change from normal to what's happening right now? >> about a week after biden became president. >> really that fast? >> yes. >> once everything got reversed by the swipe of a pen, the flood gates were open. anybody coming over illegally right now pretty much has more rights than we do on our own property. >> it was like a free pass to them. they saw it as going to let us in and there is going to be no repercussions. >> how often do people cross on your property. >> pretty much every day. almost dame daily up until it got cold. >> i know bailouts are things you have to deal with pretty regularly. can you explain what that is. >> what what they call a vehicle that is loaded with illegals. they will go through your fences, your gates. they do that because they are being chased by law enforcement. and they will come through your property and they either crash or purposefully stop and everybody in the vehicle bales

and everybody runs and they all run in different directions. because it's harder for obviously law enforcement to catch 30 people running in different directions. >> the thing that people ask about well why don't you just post no frepsing signs, okay we are posting but when they're vagd law and the stolen vehicle with 20 people in there. >> and then your fence they are crashing through so you have to fix them. >> they are evading law enforcement and came through our neighbor's ranch. come up this road right here and they came through the fence and you can see you know like this one here. all of these are all patches to where they busted through. >> a truck barreled through the fence? >> yeah. drug a bunch of the wire. kept going through the brush here. while it was closed that truck come up, my went straight through this gate swung it all -- redo the post. we had to pull the pens. >> so your ranch is 56 miles

from the border. so it's not -- you are not really even a border town and you are still seeing that many people? >> yes. they are either in the trucks or like right now they are on foot. they are trekking through all this, you know. and trying to get wherever they are going. >> you no longer feel really secure, you know. we always -- you are always looking over your shoulder, you know, whether i'm getting in my vehicle to go to work, to town, whether my husband is going to put out hay for the cows. and. >> and you have two daughters. you are worried about their safety? >> oh, yes. one is still living at home. and so she -- the same thing. she gets up to go to school every day. she goes outside to get in her vehicle. she looks out the door first. she scopes it out. >> i understand that you actually taught them how to use a gun to protect themselves just in case anything bad happens? >> as a mom, i mean, i want to be there to protect my children.

and, obviously, if i'm there, i will, having to discuss with then what to do if they are out here and somebody attacks them. what to do if somebody breaks into the house. we deal with it every single day. it's affecting us. we can no longer go somewhere as a family tout eat all together. somebody has to stay behind. >> what's your message to the biden administration? >> fix it. >> yeah. fix it. we need relief down here. and we needed it a year ago. but nothing has improved in a year's time. >> i don't see it going anywhere. >> steve: i can't imagine just every day you don't know who is going to be in your backyard. >> carley: that's exactly right. the day after we visited that ranch there was a bailout. seven illegal immigrants apprehended a few days later another big bailout. the driver of the vehicle wanted for child molestation of a 12-year-old. that is why these people don't

feel safe. >> ainsley: they have two daughters. >> carley: and why the mom is teaching the two daughters to use a gun because all these strangers are crossing through the property. these are the stories that the biden administration doesn't want you to see. they are prioritizing illegal immigrants over hardworking taxpayers. >> pete: as they said almost days after their administration took over. >> carley: exactly. which is unbelievable. she saw the change like that. and those bailouts like we were talking about. it's a big financial burden for ranchers and it's not just them it's also their neighbors. but when these bailouts happen in town, these cars are going 100 miles per hour trying to get away from border patrol. it becomes a deadly situation. and back in december, there was a mother and daughter in texas who died that way. car. >> ainsley: you said the illegals will leave trash on 50. he has to surveil that area because if the cattle eat the trash they die. >> exactly. which is another cost.

and stephanie was saying she is speaking for everybody. it's not just her ranch. she said that the administration's response to this kamala harris and root causes totally laughable. >> steve: i don't think joe biden is going to be talking about that part next week. >> carley: you are exactly right. steve. now everybody knows. >> ainsley: every time we interview a larger they say the same thing we feel abandoned. let's check in janice dean for fox weather forecast. >> good morning. let's talk about what's happening in the northeast. spring like air and could set records for the warmth. there are the current temps. minus 15 in fargo. minus 15 in billings. cold air diving southward again. winter weather advisories central texas all the way up towards illinois, indiana and kentucky yet again. we have ice in store for some of these areas. so that's going to be dangerous. this is through friday as this front continues to linger and we have the potential for that frozen precipitation on the roads and the power lines and

then all of that is going to come up here to the northeast on friday morning during the commute, and this is what i'm concerned with all of these big cities could be dealing with measurable ice and then big time snow especially north and west of new york city. new england area and upstate new york. you could get a bulls eye of over a foot of snow. i know it's crazy. and the aisles. this is what i'm really concerned with. and the bulk of this ice coming thursday night overnight into friday morning when people are trying to commute. so just keep an eye on the forecast. fox weather.com and there is some of the snow we are going to be seeing across the midwest. a big storm system impacting millions of people and, again, fox weather.com to get your latest forecast details especially with the next storm system. all right, it's ainsley and steve and pete. >> steve: don't put away the sled yet. >> janice: that's right. >> steve: all right, j.d., thank you. president biden warning russia's move signal imminent war in ukraine. author douglas murray argues it was president biden's weakness

>> pete: weak back. signaling invasion as he poses new sanctions on russia. >> russia has moved supplies and

blood and medical equipment on position on the border. you don't need blood unless you plan on starting a war. >> pete: new op-ed says next actions insane enabled by the biden administration. more on the west douglas murray joins us now. thank you so much for being here. you are right. we can't quite can calculate what's on the mind of vladimir putin there is a lot of reasons why we can't and shouldn't. we can prepare for the worst case scenario. if america is strong on the world stage that really matters and that's what you are pointing out here. >> it is. i mean, since march last year, vladimir putin has been assembling troops on the border. 90,000 troops were on the border from march last year. this hasn't crept up on anyone. this hasn't crept on ukrainians, the europeans or the white house. and, yet, what has happened in the meantime, you know, we had four years of the democrats making all discussion of russia basically impossible in this

country because of their crock claims about the russia conspiracy with the last election. it was impossible for anyone in this country and america to discuss russia because everybody had made it this sort of terrifying domestic issue. biden himself went on and on about russia when he was running for office. i just watched again yesterday, one of his videos tried to raise money from americans putin doesn't want me in the white house. i'm such a tough guy. what's it got him? what's it got anyone putin invading ukraine like before previous democrats in the obama administration, he took crimea, you know, what's the pattern here? american weakness leads to russia grabbing things. >> pete: while they yell russia, russia, russia. putin didn't invade anyone.

on the energy front taking proactive steps to become energy independent. you also mentioned doug in your piece about kamala harris. that it's almost sending her was almost worse than not sending her at all. >> it's just astonishing. of the moment the biden administration said we are sending kamala harris to sort this out you just sort of where to start, you know. she arrived at the munich security conference on sunday. do you know what she said to her european counter parts she said we're looking here at the real possibility of war in europe and just think about that for a moment, guys. i mean, this is serious, this is a possibility of war in europe and we should stop and think about that. wow. how could we do without you. she is telling this to her european counterparts. it's not even an insight. it's not even a benality. i don't know whether she was trying to boar her counterparts

or send it verbal missiles to putin until he gave in. it doesn't say anything or do anything. it's just never benality, it does nothing to stop vladimir putin. there is a debate now going on about what exactly vladimir putin wants to take in ukraine. is he going to take the parts of the country which he sees as his, which he sees as russian seeking and able to be consumed by him or does it mean he is going to roll all the way to kyiv? does it mean he is going to take the whole thing and go up to the nato countries like hungary? this is incredibly serious. nothing has done in d.c. recognize the seriousness of it. >> pete: unprepared completely all while wearing a giant mask trying to lecture europe. more "fox & friends." including rick perry top of the hour.

country, otherwise, it may be gone. >> that's right. men between 18 and 65 got that call last night. they might be having to serve in the ukrainian army against massive russian forces in the near future. have not declared a full-scale mobilization yet. i could come here they are talking about martial law. tension here definitely getting worse. at this as sanctions are now against russia from the u.s. and for more than 20 other countries bear they are targeting a number of russian banks as well as some of the kremlin elite. though sanctions can be ratcheted up depending on what russia does next. but it looks like they are doing us any more forces toward the ukraine border around the city of bell the root. even a new field hospital being constructed. the place to watch right now is eastern ukraine. putin has sent his tanks their "as peacekeepers." there has been a low-level war going on there for eight years and now more hardware is pouring into the region.

president biden said basically russia has taken a large chunk out of ukraine. he intends to send more forces to nato countries in the region. here is president biden. >> this the beginning of a russian invasion of ukraine. i have authorized additional movements of u.s. forces and equipment. already stationed in europe. to strengthen our baltic allies. that may be clear. these are totally defensive moves on our part. we have no intention of fighting russia. >> ukraine telling citizens to get out of russia immediately put more than 3 million ukrainians live in russia. guys, back to you. >> you mention the field hospitals. yesterday we learned they are sending supplies of blood. russia is any and medical equipment. the president said you don't send in blood unless you are planning for war. they are getting ready, right? >> it certainly looks like it. but as one of the last things to arrive at those very close

attack positions the russians are now in. >> steve: the people on the street who you speak to their in kiev. that's the best sanctions they can do? they are not the big sanctions. they are waiting for the big invasion united states for the big sanctions. just little itty-bitty incremental stuff at this point. >> i think there is a real sense of gratitude here from ukrainians. i think they are feeling the support of economic sanctions especially that big pipeline. they are seeing their weapons, hundreds of millions of dollars worth of weapons, advanced weaponry that the u.s. is in the end. i think they are grateful for those weapons which they might need in a few days' time. >> steve: thank you for pulling the plug on north strea. >> pete: every citizen in ukraine has been -- i don't know what the current gun laws but they been allowed to openly carry rifles and guns as well as average citizens.

certainly a country preparing for the worst. where are the tanks actually coming from? we will break down a little bit. if you look at the orange portion on the right portion of the screen, that is the region. that is the area that is already in red. it is already controlled by russian separatists. but it is ukraine. although it is a factor controlled by russians who deny they control it even though everyone knows they controlled it. the orange portion is the rain me portion of that area. most people believe at a minimum vladimir putin will invade. >> you can see crimea down at the bottom. the red circles, are those the tanks? >> artillery, special forces which could be airborne inserted in particular locations. right where it says russia next to kyiv inside russia, that is where the field hospital has been placed. that is nowhere near the disputed area where the things are going.

>> why would that be? >> pete: in addition to belarus which is on the top part of your screen if all you care about is what's going on -- >> are you speculating -- >> they could see the bottom they are, crimea. if you come from the south end of north and belarus and other part of russia and do an enveloping meeting a surrounding maneuver cutting off kyiv from the eastern part of the country appeared or you could be distracting ukrainian forces away from that area. so they don't have the ability to fight you all in one place. >> steve: what are those arrows? >> the arrows are where in phase one or phase to the russian military may attempt to go on a question is how far. yellow is ukraine beer the dotted area is what is currently controlled by separatists where that the things are going in. the question is do they go to kyiv in the north from belarus

and f russia, order they go short of that to control -- in ukraine, the eastern portion is the more russian speaking population. >> steve: they are not can i have a problem there. they would not be as much bloodshed as they would be from the northeast which is where they've got the field hospitals in the blood per that's probably where it's going to go. >> a lot of people believe that the river could be the demarcation line pretty good attempt to justify stopping without taking over and splitting and a half. if he went with a worst-case scenario of of those green arrows, now all the way on the left side of the screen, that is the border of poland. that is the border of nato countries. that's where we come in or would potentially come in. i don't know that that is a redline that vladimir putin is prepared to cross. >> ainsley: how to the residents where they green arrows where, how do they feel about it? you were saying earlier, they are younger and more interested -- >> pete: they are more western oriented. anyone under the age of 30 have never lived under the

soviet union. being a free country wanting to join nato. you look at this particular map. i guess it is teal. >> steve: the green and the taylor pretty much the same color. >> pete: the teal in europe are nato countries where we have u.s. troops. you see germany, 34,000. increase the number of troops end up alone. in baltic countries. those are former soviet republics that join nato in 2004. we have now moved troops there. this is where vladimir putin will spin our action against us for his own domestic consumption by saying, it's actually the aggressions of nato and the west who are now surrounding us. we need to defend ourselves. he calls his own troops going into the contested areas, peacekeepers. as douglas murray went out, there have been 90,000 troops on the ukrainian border since march. we've known about this. now there's 150,000. see ukraine in yellow, that's a

big country, a very large country peered occupying and holding it creates a lot of complications. he is force but not to hold it in perpetuity. >> and then he would be surrounded. somebody who knows so much about what is going on, a great tremor in that is former governor of texas, former energy secretary under donald trump. he joined us right now. governor, good morning to you. >> good morning. >> steve: as you said where you are sitting, from your point of view, what do we need to know about what's going on right now? i know you know all about how the price of gas is going to go through the roof. what else do we need to know? >> there's a couple of historic matters here i think we all remember back when obama did his tour through that part of the european union, the apologists to her as it was called. and now for the last year, using

the biden administration basically with its actions doing the same thing again. and what i mean by doing the same thing is, weakening the u.s. influence in that part of the world. and particularly through energy policy. when the north stream 2 pipeline basically was green-lighted if you will by the biden administration, that put a big smile on putin's face. he has historically used energy as a tool to get what he wants out of the european union. and north stream 2 is the biggest green light that he has. so no one should be surprised with what we are seeing over there. now, he's putting himself in jeopardy. that is certainly for sure and putting russia in jeopardy. think about the economy of russia, the economy of russia is

smaller than the state of texas. we are a substantial economy. i think we are number ten in the world. the point is, he is putting his country's economy in jeopardy at the same time i say that, one of the things that is strengthening his economy are the biden policies of cutting back on u.s. energy production. and the russians are benefiting from it. the russians, the iranians, it's crazy what's happening in washington, d.c., today from the standpoint of energy policy. all based on the left's pushing biden with the whole climate. you've got to stop fossil fuels being produced in the united states so we can save the planet. and the fact of the matter is and i will stop and pitch it back to you with this is that the energy that will be replaced

by u.s. energy being stopped, halted is dirtier energy. the left and that climate change artists who are out there, they are basically heard in the climate because of the policies they are putting in place. it's crazy. >> ainsley: it doesn't make sense. we need to be energy independent. we have the resources. you know living in the state of texas. gas prices are going to go up. they say that ride, wheat, barley is going to go up because that is exported from russia and ukraine peered our electronics will be more expensive. construction on your house will be more expensive. this is just the cost of defending freedom. listen to this. >> defending freedom will have costs for us as well and here at home. we need to be honest about that. but as we do this, i am going to

take robust action to make sure the pain of our sections is targeted at the russian economy, not ours. >> ainsley: we are just getting word count russian state run news agency reporting that russia has started a evacuating diplomatic personnel from ukraine that they are preparing as well. >> ainsley, freedom is not free. there is a cost. but this is a self-inflicted caused by the biden administration. that is the real key here. the idea that this is going on didn't need to happen. the trump administration had made europe close to energy independent. dependent if you well on friends rather than enemies. russia has never been a friend. they are sitting on the tree

line waiting to swoop in and pick the bones of the country. >> steve: interesting. we are talking about energy. the threats of cyber which could be something that vladimir putin employees as well. >> he started a new department. >> in the white house briefing room, our white house correspondent asked about what the greatest ideas that we face and sieber came up. take a listen. >> the president said in the spring that pentagon general and briefed him that the greatest threat facing america is global warming. is that still the assessment now that we are facing down the potential cyber war with russia? >> we are always prepared for any threat that any outside entity or country poses to the united states are related to cyber or anything else, there is no current pending threat as it relates to cyber.

>> holy mackerel. >> steve: yeah, holy mackerel. she says there's no current threat. yesterday the department of homeland security came out and warned businesses and organizations at all levels about the threat of cyber. >> yeah, listen, anyone who is sitting at the white house being the spokesperson or the president of the united states and basically saying that there is no threat for cybersecurity needs to step away from the microphone and quit doing any more harm to america. >> steve: why? >> because there is cyberthreats from russia. they are one of the most powerful entities out there that are probing our different networks on -- i mean, millions of times a day. the idea that there is not a cyber threat is on its face

either a grand lie or a person who is completely and absolute inapt. i mean, go get a classified briefing, miss jen psaki. >> steve: because you've had them and you know the threats. i can tell you're being very careful at saying what you can say and what you can't say. >> indeed. and she needs to get a briefing so that she knows what she's talking about. >> steve: it is indefensible to declare that climate change is the single greatest threat we face if she pivots to something else and denies that there is a threat at all. >> look, pete, this administration is so tied to this concept that climate change, climate change, climate change to the point of literally willing to destroy or help destroy the european union because you are giving this

energy economy to the russians. and you are giving the energy economy to the russians because you are willing to shut down the production of fossil fuels in the united states hiding behind this manner of climate change because your left mob and the party that you represent is pushing you to that instead of standing up and saying, hey, get a grip, the united states is going to produce fossil fuels. we are going to do it thoughtfully. we are going to do it environmentally appropriately. but the only country in the world i can do this and keep the world economically based properly is the united states. but they are not willing to do that. they are so bought into this whole climate change argument that we are going to save the world, and america is going to basically shut down economically. because that's what doing away with the fossil fuel industry does. it is really troubling to see

the spokesperson for the president of the united states be that inapt when it comes to the problems that this country has. >> mr. secretary, governor, thank you very much. >> the aggies, anam? >> we've got a connection there. 18 minutes after that top of the hour. we've got some video to show you. >> you may find this footage disturbing. chilling video capturing the brutal robbery. the suspects attacking them at once right on their own driveway. the suspects going through the husband's pockets on the ground as another forcibly steals his wife's purse. they met up with $2,000 in cash. luckily, the victims are okay. the police are still searching for those suspects. they are still on the loose. a harvard student expressing frustration with the

university's strict covid policies and her peers -- got members of the american elite with whatever compromises, concessions, and conformity that requires. and a west point cadet resigning over the federal vaccine mandate. >> we were all brought into a briefing room in order to get the vaccine. and we knew that what they were doing was illegal. >> the former cadet says she is weird for a military because the body mandate is hurting mission readiness increased in at least 34 years in 2021. home prices surged 20% according to new data. the rise in price being attributed to the pandemic in remote work. fueling mass migration to the southeast and mountain west regions. the biggest increase in home prices took place in phoenix and to have up here at home prices up nearly 30% in both places.

those are headlines, big numbers there. >> steve: big numbers if you can find a house. >> is not time to move. >> steve: no, we are not moving fitness counts for another 40 minutes. thank you. >> pete: a lot more to come as joe biden makes moves on the world stage, is a administration finally addresses this one. why jen psaki says the president used a fake white house set when the real thing is just steps away. >> as gas prices in our country are surging, christie wants to know why the keystone pipeline was canceled before russia's north stream 2.

>> is just a place where you can do events, but it's really not

that exciting. it is really just an auditorium. because of covid and vic on the president was not going to trap as much and not as many were going to come here, he does a lot of events and actually meetings from their where you can put up a bunch of people on screen. you can see them and talk with them and engage with them in a way you do if he had 30 people in a meeting here. so they belted out more to make it look a little bit better visually. to ensure that he could kind of engage with people and see them in different boxes. >> as all eyes are on fat and on the world stage, the white house speaking out about the briefing. good morning. >> k, ainsley, how are you? >> ainsley: what did you think of that? if you have a problem with the fake stage across the street from the white house? >> i think the whole thing is very weird especially in the

context of this is a guy who ran effectively his entire presidential campaign from his basement and artificial version of what we were used to in terms of getting out and about amongst the people. and then he also now has an artificial version of a stage. i think the whole thing, and feels very abnormal and what is a highly abnormal lighthouse. if joe biden was doing a great job on the murder rate in that country, at the border at our certain border was in control, if covid wasn't still running rampant, if kids weren't still in masks, if we hadn't had the disaster in afghanistan, if we hadn't also had the disaster going on right now in ukraine, maybe, just possibly, you would be inclined to give the benefit of the doubt for artificially stage-managed insincerity to this white house. i'm just not given what is going on right now, it just feels like

another artificial level of failure for the biden administration when it comes to trying to protect joe biden in many ways from himself. >> ainsley: jen psaki has a tough job. that's a job i would be very nervous to do. she wasn't in the press briefing room. here she is talking about some of the questions she gets from reporters. >> it was planned to be an hour. he had a list of questions just so he knew who to call on. in the moment, he just decided to take some more questions. i'm a pretty chill person. i think when some of the questions started to be off in cuckoo cocoa puffs land, where are we going here with this? >> your reaction? >> first of all, joe biden does

view press conferences, the one where he talked a couple of hours which is basically the only one of any sustained lunch every day that he has done and most of the first two years of his presidency so far. i always think about this in the context of, your job is to advocate for your client, effectively jen psaki as a law year. i don't think she has a law degree, but effectively, she's a lawyer advocating for client. you only have as good of arguments when you are the white house press secretary when you are a law year as client provides for you. joe biden is not providing very good arguments at all for jen psaki. she is often walking into a really difficult spot. she can make cookies and hand them out to the press corps. other than peter doocy, nobody really comes after her in an aggressive fashion. she gets the benefit of a relatively compliant and complacent press corps compared to what we saw for donald trump

and certainly for kayleigh mcenany. but in general, i think this is more of the same from the artifice surrounding the biden administration. >> ainsley: thank you so much for meeting with us. >> thank you. >> you're welcome. check out what's clicking at out cake.com. see what's trending. coming up next, a tale of two pipelines. president biden was quick to cancel the keystone pipeline while dragging his feet on north stream 2. kristi noem calls out the biden administration as the americans are already feeling the pain at the pump. first treatment coulde a chemo-free combination of two immunotherapies that works differently. it could mean a chance to live longer. opdivo plus yervoy is for adults newly diagnosed with non-small cell lung cancer that has spread, tests positive for pd-l1, and does not have an abnormal egfr or alk gene. together, opdivo plus yervoy helps your immune system launch a response that fights cancer in two different ways.

>> steve: it's a tale of 2 pipelines. our next guest is slamming president biden or canceling the keystone xl pipeline on day one trend. the move increasing russia's grip on the world's oil supply which is deeply impacting europe. he was reaction of south dakota governor kristi noem. russia is already talking about haiti, germany, you might be pulling the log on north stream 2. natural gas prices are going to

double. speak out that it is the power that president biden gave them. many cancel the keystone pipeline on day 1, he sent a clear message to putin. go ahead and develop your energy supply. make sure that the rest of europe in the united states is more unstable. he from the very day he got into the white house, he gave putin all the power. >> steve: that's the problem. we were just talking with governor peary about the cyber threat. i see that obviously, this is something of interest to you as well because you want to develop a cybersecurity lab in south dakota at one of your universities. speak out we already have one. we have one at dakota state university. it is one of the top cybersecurity training universities in the country. this year, we announced a partnership where we will double the capacity of students they go through their and partnerships with contractors, cyber attack security officials that will be able to colocate here in

south dakota recognizing the threats we face from around the world. and that is the reality we see playing out today with russia. it's not only attacking our energy supply. it's attacking us through those mechanisms that are related to cybersecurity issues. it is not allowed defense of the american way of life today, steve. i wish this white house understood that. they drove up gas prices by canceling the keystone pipeline which came straight through our state. we are preparing for the future regardless of what president biden does. we are training cybersecurity in the top in the world to be able to be prepared to secure that technology and our information from countries that are threats like russia. >> steve: jen psaki as we were talking a moment ago said yesterday they are no known threats. we heard from secretary mayorkas the same thing. by the department of homeland security came out and warn you, you, organizations at all levels that russia is going to try to

do something. you know, it doesn't take a rocket scientist to know that russia is going to retaliate. >> they are already trying to do something. they are already trying to hack into our systems and our information supply. they are already invading ukraine, and they are already setting up for war. put up a hospital, start shipping and blood and let diplomatic relationships are over. you do that when you're ready to go to war and take more of the power that president biden has been holding out and giving to them for many months now. >> steve: something very personal to you that you been working on for a while now. you have a brand-new book out called "not my first rodeo." one excerpt from your father that we wanted to highlight. i feel explains a lot about you. "we don't complain about things, we fix them." these words so often spoke about my dad have motivated me to show up for the tough jobs in my life. the signing legislation."

that is such a good way to put it, the visual of you out cleaning the stalls has a lot to do with politics, doesn't it? >> it absolutely does. i think my dad speaking those words over me as a young girl really set my attitude for how i approach life. a lot of the stories in this book will talk about who i am, how i make the decisions that i make, but also behind-the-scenes political stories from my time in congress, my time on the armed services committee working on national security issues and national defense authorization reforms. but also my time as governor. their cries is that we've seen with covid and the overstepping of authority by our leaders in this country is alarming. i think people will truly understand the approach we took a year in south dakota and how it really is a bright light for the country to bring hope to people who really embrace their freedoms. >> steve: often times a politician will read a book like that. if you are beating themselves to people across national stage.

are you thinking about another job and some other political job on the agenda? >> i had a lot of people asking if i would do something like this. i think that a lot of times what happens is on the news, people don't really understand who you are or why you made the decision that you made. who are the only state who didn't shut down, the only one that didn't define essential businesses. we have the number one economy in the country. we have less than 1500 people unemployed in our country. people want to know why. i think you'll enjoy the book and there are some funny stories in there and some things you will not believe. i hope you enjoy it. >> steve: we look forward to it. our book will be released on june 28 then you can currently preorder it wherever you preorder -- seminary, thank you very much for joining us. thank you. still a hand reaching for the sky, we are going to introduce you to tony biggins, one of then
