[sirens] will: this morning new reporting on the people leaving everything

behind. ukrainians take a matters into their own hands in the fight against russia. joey: pete pete leg joins us from -- pete hegseth joins us from orlando, mike tobin in lviv, but first, steve harrigan in kyiv. >> reporter: we are hearing artillery, at least 15 artillery shells over the past several hours hitting within 2 miles of where i'm standing in the city center. you can see black smoke rising, most of them in the north and west of the city. at least one police headquarters has been hit, and oversight we saw huge explosions including an oil depot, a fuel depot, that burned orange brightly into the night. as far as the president, zelenskyy, he is complaining that the russians are attacking everything, apartments, hospitals, electricity. here's ukraine's prime minister. >> translator: they are fighting against everyone and everything alive, against

kindergartenerses, against businesses, against -- [inaudible] they are using rocket artillery, missiles against entire city districts which never has and doesn't have now any military infrastructure. >> reporter: ukrainian officials say that russian fighters are now inside kharkiv. there is desperate street ballots going on inside that city -- battles. and one thing we've seen a number of times on social media, it's hard to verify, and that is people standing in front of russian tanks men, women alone, sometimes in groups, blocking these tanks and around a moredded vehicles from moving into their village, certainly not the reception russian soldiers thought they would get on the grown here in ukraine. will: steve, when you talk about the role of civilians, i read in kyiv there is now a curfew and the reason being it's so hard to tell ukrainian civilians from russian saboteurs. that, i think, is according to the mayor of kyiv and the president of ukraine.

what is that like on the ground? is it confusing? and therefore, has it gotten quiet? are people obeying the curfew? how does one separate a ukrainian civilian from a russian separatist, russian saboteur in civilian clothes? >> reporter: keep in mind too sometimes there is deliberate deception. there have been reports, unvery very -- unverified, of russians changing into ukrainian uniforms. so it's near impossible to tell especially when the languages are often interchangeable. so i've seen the civilian portions go out today right near this building, usually carrying accomplish that kohs and a yellow armband, that's about the only indication many have. will: steve, thank you so much for that report in kyivment -- kyiv. here we are, it's now day four. we thought, all expectations were both from americans and the international community that russia would roll within a day or two, and now we're entering

day four, and the battle for kyiv is still on. rachel: yeah. i think the question is, is this a deliberate holdoff on the part of vladimir putin, or is that -- this that the ukrainians turn out to be stronger than we thought? we keep getting these reports and no answer to that, in my mind. joey: the shelling that's happening, does it seem to be strategic and pinpointed? is it indiscriminate? and also why are they bombing energy production facilities and not, i don't know, like you were talking about yesterday, cell phone towers, communications, power plants. it seems like they have a plan. will: that's a great question. why are we also seeing, for example, apartment buildings? if randomly, though, one-off -- >> i think that was probably a misfire. will: that's the question, is it indiscriminate or strategic. pete hegseth is at cpac in

florida. pete, you herald the report from steve. what are your thoughts as you wake up this morning? pete: yeah. my thoughts are vladimir putin is in the next phase of how he's going to approach this. you have got reports now of chechnyaning fighters, sunni muslim fighters who are notoriously known as violent and indiscriminate. maybe they were hit hard by ukrainian forces and a lot of members killed, so he's calling in reinforce forcements. they're still trying to punch through with those tanks. will, i know you're going to go to the maps here in a moment. we're all focused on kyiv, but they seem to have punched through, russian forces out of the crimean if peninsula, and they're moving north. if they're able to cut off the troops in the donbas region, then ukraine has a big decision to make. do you recall some of those troops from the east to reinforce kyiv or not? so as this goes on, there's still advantages.

pressing on four sides on a, you know, relatively minor ukrainian force, at some point he's going to make gains, vladimir putin. and when he does, it creates new vulnerabilities for zelenskyy and decisions they have to make. time, while it does work on behalf of ukrainians so this can get support, it also works on behalf of russians who can get different avenues. will: let's take a look at the maps, keep rachel ask joey involved as well as you, pete, see what the state of the war is this morning. when you start at what the russians have managed to accomplish -- managed to accomplish so far, this is day four into this war. you can see the eastern region that pete referenced, the donbas region, which has been under russian control for quite some time. here's north of kyiv as russian forces come out of belarus. what pete is talking about, pete, i'll let you pick it up right here. this there seems to have been a lot of russian success coming out of the crimea. they've had that base of operations since 2014, and there are reports in many southern

cities here russian forces have made advances. and, pete, walk me through this. what you're saying is, and i don't know if you can see this, pete, from where you're sitting, if they can continue innovate p they can -- north, they can cut off this eastern region where there are tons of ukrainian forces. pete: effectively using the dnieper river as a buffer zone. while vladimir putin is going for kyiv, he may first be able to control most of eastern ukraine. so much of the combat power of ukrainians was centralized in the donbas region and remains there because they wanted to prevent them from advancing on that axis. if you can move north to south, you effectively cut them off from kyiv and the rest of ukraine which means, again, do they recall troops or do those troops become surrounded which, when you're surrounded in battle, things don't end el. will: let's brung up -- brung up this next -- bring up this next map. the russians are having success

in ukraine's second largest city, which is kharkiv, which is in the's. and that's where there's street battles going on, russian troops deep into that city. it's a city of about, joey, 2 million people. and once again this is a place where're starting -- we're starting to see some success, joey. joey: when your extremely outnumbered, you have a battlefield plan of progression or succession. for example, if we were many if afghanistan fighting door to door, we might be fighting the same folks. they've got rifles staged at different houses, and they're strategically withdrawing, drawing us in. so there's a good chance ukrainians have that in mind. rather than leafing a substantial -- leaving a substantial force that is surrounded, bringing them back. i think we're in a race right now. the russians are in a race to get this done as quickly as possible, and the ukrainians are in a race to get the international community to send them weapons, backup and try to hold until that point.

will: obviously, one of the things this map highlight is the the pipeline system. ukraine has been a center of industry for decades, if not a century, for russia and eastern europe both from an agricultural standpoint and an energy standpoint. we'll have stuart varney in a moment, he can explain the role of economy in this as well. let's go to this next map. zoom in on kyiv. this is where everything is focused. so, rachel, i mean, i agree with your question, is vladimir putin holding back, is he encountering, you know, resistance that he did not expect. this airport, by the way, you mentioned in a moment ago, pete. there are reports, i believe, at this airport where a chechnyan special forces division that was assigned to assassinate the president of ukraine was taken out. the ukrainians apparently took out this entire chechnyan special portions. i want to say this really quickly. there's a lot of propaganda --

pete: that's true. will: it's hard or to know what to believe. i think every bit of information from all needs to come with a bit of humanity. we don't -- humility. we don't mow in the fog of war. and, rachel, there is another airport that is not part of the focus. i agree with your question, what's taking so long for vladimir putin. rachel: and i'm going to go back to what you just said, i don't know what to believe. i'm going to tell you, the media's not popular, but i don't know what to believe in any of this. i have the biden administration talking about freedom and democracy. this is the same administration that told justin trudeau to crush the trucker freedom convoy. this is the same administration that when they were asked to help with the freedom fighters in cuba wouldn't even give them the internet. this is the same group of people in the intel community and democrat party who when the hong kongers were flying american flags and asking for their own freedom, some show of support, they were celebrating blm

burning our flag and burning our cities. so as an american citizen looking at this and it's really interesting to look at the maps and i, you know, it's fascinating to have joey and pete telling me all the war games, i'm joe america sitting here going, what does this have to do with me, and why should i trust anybody in any of this? i'm very confused, to be honest. will: very legitimate place to sit today and questions to be asking. pete, as you see this and we've circled in on kyiv and carr kyiv -- kharkiv, do you have any thoughts before we move on? pete: yeah. you're so right what you said. there's a ton of information flowing back. all the chechnyanings are killed, 56 tanks, the other side is saying it's just a couple of them. no one knows. and you're right, rachel, we break down the, ands and os because this is the base level of human nature which you never want to get to which is hand war amongst people. and just because we're covering it doesn't mean you're

celebrating it at all, you're just recognizing, frankly, the gravity of it. but right now in kyiv if he's succeeded, he needs the airports. and you keep watching the scouts the russians are serving out, the tank columns, they're trying to make it to one of the two large airports, one of which is in the east of kyiv, the one is more or less in the city center of kyiv. if they can get to one of those, in addition to assassinating leaders, they believe when -- that's when they can start offloading more troops. will: so to pete's point really quickly, this airport 6 miles, pete just said in the city center, essentially it is, 6 miles is the distance from this airport into the city center. so, rachel, i think your question needs if to be asked every step of the way, what is the effect on the american interest. but there is no doubt that in the moment this is a geopolitical, global interest -- rachel: yeah.

will: and here's why. you know, regardless the decision we make as americans, this is where we sit today. and i think this is always going to tell the bigger story that begins to tie it back to america. this is nato, okay? this is the during the cold war creation of nato. essentially, western europe, turkey. you can see this was the coalition created to offset the soviet union and its sphere of influence. what did its sphere of influence include in eastern europe, belarus, ukraine. not necessarily all of these were part, the baltics, necessarily always a part of the ussr. for example, poland. but within the soviet sphere of influence. and many of those countries within the soviet sphere now have joined after the cold war. all of these, latvia, estonia, lithuania, poland have become nato members, creeping closer, and look who's looking to join. that includes as swell swede -- as well sweden and finland. and vladimir putin has said is,

hey, sweden and finland, if you join nato, expect severe russian repercussions. rachel: yeah. i've gotten a lot of betweens from the finnish people yesterday when i said i didn't know why it matters to us. [laughter] anyway -- the. >> it's super legitimate. pete: it's encroachment, right? around russia. that's how they're going to feel about it. rachel: yeah. path. pete: also, should article v be triggered. joey: exact some consequence, and maybe the consequence for invading ukraine that nato expands to show russia they're not going to stop independent nations from deciding their own fate. that's part of it as well. and that's really the question for ukraine. rachel: well, another part of this conversation is energy if, and i think that's why we brought you in, stuart. this is at the heart of all of this, and i can't understand why we have surrendered our energy independence and allowed germany

to become so dependent on somebody that, clearly, europe is afraid of. >> well, leapt me report a blow to russia. just exercised by the europeans, america and great broun. they have cut off -- great britain. they have cut off big russian banks from the international payment system. now, this is a very big deal. international payment system is the society for world wild interbank preponderance financial telecommunications. that swift system allows money to be moved from bank to bank. they've just been cut off from that system. that's an attempt to isolate russia financially -- will that's officially happened now, stuart? >> yes. not all of them but some big banks in russia are cut off. rachel: the people who are buying oil, is russia still getting that money? >> yes. but suppose that putin turns around and says, right, i don't like you cutting me out of the swift system, i'm going to cut off the energy to western europe. he could do that.

that would be a major escalation. i don't think he'll do it, but if he did, that's a huge escalation. meanwhile, if they're cut off from the banking system, they're going to have inflation, shortages in russia, huge domestic problems, a blow has been struck against russia. joey: real quick. so the way the swift system has been defined to a country boy like me is this is e-mail meets venmo, it's messaging and basically making the deal, updating the deal, not necessarily the actual transfer of money. >> look, have you wired money to someone? joey: yes. >> you've used the swift system. some big banks are cut off from that system. big deal. joey: but when they say some bank, this is more of a presentation than an actual thing. can you explain why it actually has impact? >> >> because if a bank can no longer move money around, it cannot if engage in trade, it can't engage in foreign investment. it's cut off.

you can't be a bank. you can't work. joey: -- [inaudible] >> i don't know how many have been cut off. i don't know exactly which ones, but you could easily extend this. this is going to hurt russia. this is really going to hurt -- rachel: [inaudible] pete: stu, let me ask this. some critics have said by pushing russia out of swift, you're pushing the russians toward china and, ultimately, the supremacy of the dollar is so much of what underwrites our power, right? it underwrites our debt. so is there a likelihood that this pushes more people away from an american-led international system and into the hands of china and the yuan? i've just heard people say this could lead to that. sphwhrfl i don't think it leads to that, no. i don't think the repercussion is that severe. i don't think so. will: rachel asked a question, i'm sorry, does this hurt us? >> no, it does not. rachel: you don't think so? >> yo. -- no. st it's very hard to say how

these things work out, but in the immediate future, it does not hurt us. what hurts us is energy. joey: wherever they maybe, they were working on a pipeline, wanting to go back to work on our own land, do they sit there and say, hey, maybe this is an opportunity for us to ratchet up our energy production in. >> next tuesday the prime minister delivers the state of the union -- president delivers the state of the union message. it is an ideal opportunity for him to reverse course, build the keystone pipeline, build other pipelines, create american energy independence all over again. now, he won't do that but he should do that. will: and that doesn't happen overmight as well. that that's words on tuesday night -- >> it would change the outlook. rachel: the future. if he did that, people would think -- joey: some of that infrastructure exists. >> meanwhile, we've got energy price inflation bigtime in

america right now. i just checked. the average price for a gallon of regular gasoline is now $3.60, up 7 cents in a week, 25 cents in a month. that's inflation. you can reverse that, you could start to reverse that by increasing our own energy supplies. will: really quickly -- rachel: you're not beholden to climate extremists, which president is. will: really quickly because i think you're the right guy to answer this. i saw a tweet from bill ackman who said if you cut the russians off from swift, you isolate those banks, on monday morning there could be a run on the banks in russia. >> yes. will: is that real? because now you're talking about huge domestic effects in russia which affects vladimir putin. >> that's entirely possible. the repercussions within russia from being cut off from the swift system are profound. you could see a run on banks. you will certainly see rising inflation, rising interest rates. that's a -- will: within russia. >> -- big domestic problem.

but putin, even as he's got these demonstrations going on -- rachel: and you could escalate this whole conflict. will: depending on how he reacts. ray a ray all right. catch stuart varney live on "varney & company." will you promise to come back? we love having you. >> if you're not careful, i will. thank you very much. rachel: coming up, heart-wrenching images just surfacing. a newborn baby taking coffer in -- cover in bomb shelters. the new mother joins us next after just fleeing ukraine. stay with us. ♪ ♪ ♪3, 4♪ ♪ ♪hey♪ ♪ ♪are you ready for me♪ ♪are you ready♪ ♪are you ready♪ real cowboys get customized car insurance with liberty mutual, so we only pay for what we need.

rachel: a fox news alert, shocking images from hospitals in ukraine like this one where a newborn baby is moved to a bomb shirt as explosions rock the country. our next guest fled kyiv yesterday after taking shelter in one of those hospitals. ukrainian resident and social worker natalia joins us now. thank you so much for joining us this morning. tell us how you're doing and what it's the like to be there in that bomb shelter. >> now i'm getting better and

feel myself as i found more safety here because i am -- this bomb shelter, you know, it was, it was really drained because every one hour or every 50 minutes you are told to go to the bomb shelter, and there were a lot of people this and, you know, we were not -- we didn't know what we are expecting for. and you know it was impossible to get necessary treatment there we left the place and we were driving to the western ukraine just to get any medical support here. will: we've heard reports coming up that there are thousands of people fleeing from kyiv, there's traffic on the highways. what was it like for you when you fellowed if kyiv? fled kyiv? >> i wish i never experienced

that, but it was really, really hard experience. we left kyiv, hospital in kyiv at 7 a.m. in the morning, and we were trying to get to western ukraine, usually it takes around 4 hours driving. that day it was around 15 or 14 hours. we were -- and the route, it was not safe. there were bombs around us and there were explosions, smoke and only 60 kilometers far from kyiv we were able to see the sky. and, you know, it was really dangerous and there was traffic jams for kilometers. i believe 150 kilometers from kyiv there was a traffic jam, and we were moving so slowly urn the bombs and explosions. and it takes 150 kilometers, it takes around 6-7 hours for us.

and there was, like, a long line near the gas station, but there is the only first gas station where we were able to get fuel. so it was an awful experience for us. not only for me, but for other people. joey: this is, obviously, essentially an evacuation of these babies. are people still able to get medical attention? life goes on even in war. people have heart attacks. there are emergencies. there are things that that happen in everyday lives that people need to. >>s and medical attention for. is all of that on pause across the city of kyiv? are there still hospitals and emergency rooms open? how are city leaders and the people of kyiv handling that? >> they are doing what they can do, and they're doing the best. but, you know, some things are not dependent from them because when we were in the hospital,

there were no, there was no access to some doctors for the hospital due to the traffic jam, or they were not safe of to travel because every hour there was, like, a siren saying that you need to go to the bomb shelter and stay therement -- there. and talking about medications, there was, like, a huge line of people they were trying to buy the drugs in the drugstores. and honestly, when i was there, i was trying to buy medication for my son, and i went to four drugstores k and i was not able to get this medication at this time. so hopefully i come here and buy this medication, but it was not available? kyiv. rachel: natalia, you were in the hospital because your son had covid and then you had to leave the hospital. how is he doing?

joey: fox news alert, ukrainians urged to seek shelter as explosions light up the night sky. russia reportedly taking aim at the country's fuel supply, blowing up a gas pipeline and an old depot. let's bring in former superior secretary ryan zinn sky -- zinke. thanks for joining us. >> hey, good morning, joey. joey: there have been two attacks, one near kharkiv and also an old depot attack near kyiv. i guess the real question here and with your background in energy, are these strategic attacks for a purpose or maybe attacks of opportunity because ukrainian resources may be guarding air pipelines and things like that? >> well, you know, i fought with the russians, you know, in and have been around the russians in the baltic, the crimean and kosovo, and they rarely do anything that's not strategic and tactical.

rush shack has a stranglehold in eastern europe and germany, and i would imagine they're doing the same thing here. they're surgically targeting inspect elements of the economy that matter. fuel matters in ukraine. movement of anything really. and so i think the russians are doing what their playbook tells them to do. they're very calculating. they look at it, they knock down the air defense first, encircling. i'm really surprised at the depth of the invasion. urban warfare, as you know, joey, is a tough, tough thing, and right now we're seeing some resistance. joey: absolutely. as someone who worked in the trump administration that was instrumental in energy policy and our country becoming energy if independent, these pipelines move through the ukraine into nato countries. they go to places that may affect all of europe with. where do you see our next move as a country that may want to support ukraine but also protect ourselves, not only what do you

see biden's next move, but what would you do? >> well, you know, in the trump administration we came in, and we were 8.3 million barrels a day declining, in just two short days, we were 12.5 million barrels and the world's largest energy producer. oh, by the way, we had a safety record as well. i think we immediate to do a pivot and a shift. it takes a couple years for our natural gas infrastructure, transport it over to europe and then build facilities to de-gasify on that side. it's about a, you know, $4-5 billion facility, a couple years, but we should be doing this and supplying europe with reliable source of energy. right now they'red -- hooked on russian natural gas, russian heavy fuels and, of course, you look at the commodities, steel and what they get if from russia, right mow they're dependent. and we saw same thing on the supply chain during covid with

china. america got hooked on china goods, especially the critical ones that run our economy, and that is a concern. if joey: you know, you're running for congress, and you talk about how it would take a couple year, perhaps, to backfill russia's involvement in supplying energy to europe, but is there infrastructure right now, today, that the switch has been turned off, and we could turn it back on? we always talk about the keystone pipeline and drilling on public lands, but is there something the biden administration has done that, say, if you become a member of congress, republicans take both houses of congress, that republicans can pressure biden to do immediately that would help with our own gas prices and energy independence? >> well, certainly the keystone. and part of the challenge is russia supplies heavy crudes, and a lot of our refineries are attuned to heavier crude, at least a mix of it. we used to get heavy crude from venezuela. that is no longer part of our energy profile.

so the pipe ryan, let's incentivize liquid natural gas going to our allies. we'd probably need a pipeline on the west coast too to do the same thing for our allies in the pacific because, as you know, we're out of place in the pacific. probably pending in the near horizon, taiwan. joey: yeah. >> but i think our energy policy should be america does it better. we have cleaner burning fuels, it's better to produce energy in this country where there are regulations and ship it overseas than watch it get produced there with no regulation. of course, the moral argument, i fought and you bought on foreign choirs pray -- shores primarily for energy. joey: it's a fight worth fighting here at home. secretary, thank you for your service, and good luck for you running for congress. >> our hearts and prayers go out to the ukrainian people. the fight for freedom never ends.

hanging out with us. pete, what are your thoughts? pete: yeah. fascinating. i mean, just the human toll, obviously, you've got, you know, we're so used to hearing of refugees from the middle east or elsewhere, these are rough few gees from europe -- refugees from europe. how much uncertainty would you have if you're crossing that border if vladimir putin decided to go as father -- father as he can?? -- far as he can. we're encouraged by the idea of a 79-year-old grandmother who's willing to take up arms, but the reports this morning are from crimea to donbas, russian forces are moving on they're if poll and will likely seize it soon. those he roquers are also met with the reality of a russian army that's still on the mark -- march. butted god -- but god bless those people.

rachel: joey talked about earlier how life goes on, people get sick, people have babies. id had nine those, and -- them, and those are not the best conditions. not all births go well. my last one was an emergency, you know, c-section. imagine being in this situation, not near a hospital in a bomb shelter, things like this happening. these are scary times for the people living there in ukraine right now. joey: and it's like pete said. that is a beautiful picture, a 79-year-old woman holding a rifle ready to defend her country. it's not something to champion or romanticize, that's desperat- rachel: yeah, desperation. joey: and we wish we weren't in this place, they weren't in this place. and i think as people who pray, we can only pray that a resolution comes either way that prevents 14 and 80-year-olds from feeling like they need to defend their lives with a rifle. pete: joey, so true. the other reports we're getting -- again, these are just reports. we want to emphasize this all

morning long, there's at least intelligence that russians, that vladimir putin is prepared to expend 50,000 russian casualties if necessary on the battlefield to achieve his objective in ukraine. joey: that is their culture. pete: exactly right. that is their military culture. you win wars by expending personnel. if that is the case, it means that, sure, he's been blunted on the outskirts of kyiv, but if you're willing to lose that many people, you're going to send wave after wave after wave. and that becomes a very difficult path. rachel: can i just jump in really quick in will, you talked yesterday about the impact of what's happening on the streets of st. petersburg and moscow. i just read a report -- speaking to what you were saying, pete and joey -- about willing to expend lives and troops. mothers in moscow and st. petersburg and all over russia saying i'm upset. my kid is being forced to sign a

contract to be part of the military. i want him home. he's been cut off from his cell phone. maybe that's where the russian leaders are, but where are the russian people in will will a couple of quick thoughts here. talking about casualties, we have no idea. we really have no idea on the russian side. that's really -- on the ukraine -yard line side as well. there were reports yesterday the russians were using a mobile crematorium, perhaps. we have to see about this, so that they would never have their casualties officially counted because they want to win the informational war on this. back to the refugees, pete, mike tobin told us there's a backup of 30 miles. lviv, the city he is in in the west, is only 60 miles the from the polish board, so you're talking about a backup halfway. and last thing really quickly on what you said about the fighting. joey, you did an interview yesterday with american military generals, and something stuck out to me. one of them said to you a

defensive position is a six to one advantage is. the party defending their home has a six to one advantage knowing your home you are the the of, motional investment. i understand that's a sad sacrifice, but as someone who -- if someone invaded the united states of america, i would like to think we would respond just the same way. and i find that absolutely, absolutely inspiring. joey: yeah. rachel: that's why that's important. will: coming up, people are pouring out russian vodka in protest of war in ukraine. up next, hear from the liquor store owner who banned all moscow-made products. ♪ ♪ if to be a thriver with metastatic breast cancer means asking for what we want. and need. and we need more time. so, we want kisqali. women are living longer than ever before with kisqali when taken with an aromatase inhibitor or fulvestrant

did it. >> well, the store in 2014 was owned by my stepfather for if who's bob gilbertson, our founder, and he felt super strongly about putin being a bully and the invasion of crimea. he kind of felt like he could see the writing on the wall. and his own little way of standing with the people who were being invaded was to ban russian vodka. rachel: so do you have customers coming in asking for russian vodka often? >> well, because it's been eight years, not as frequently. but every once in a while we do. we have more people really coming in to take pictures with the sign and calling in support. it's been kind of interesting to see, because i think more stores are following suit. rachel: more stores, also we've heard several governors who are asking for other, you know,

business owners to do the same thing. do you foal like this might -- feel like this might hurt the russian people, many of who oppose this adventurism, as you call it -- rightly so -- or do you think it will actually hurt putin? >> you know, i don't know that it would really hurt the russian people. i'm sure i would not want to. it's more sort of a symbolic, making a stand. it's more that we want to show our support for the ukrainians. rachel: got it. point well taken. well, you're in the free state of tennessee, so i understand your love of freedom. canada, by the way, is also banning russian vodka. they must need to take care of some issues at home if first.

>> todd biro is in studio. pete exit joining us in orlando, florida. re-changes the state of play in the current landscape. we talked about the russian control of eastern ukraine. here's what has happened. the russian troops made advances in the north, we talked about the battle over kyiv. russian advances in the south. they had crimea since 2014, pushing out of crimea into southern ukraine. multiple cities. that holds significants.

>> reporter: they hope to break out in multiple locations in kharkiv but they have broken in from the south from crimea and what makes that dangerous as they are bogged down in kyiv but their access has been slow. to move south from crimea, you are forcing a new defense of the capital city that is different from what ukrainians want to do but you cut off the eastern portion of ukraine. ukrainian troops, cut off from the capital city of kyiv at which point they could be surrounded vladimir putin decides to send in more troops. the bottom portion of -- likely today be connected and create

another land bridge for russian troops. it allows more supply lines. >> >> there are reports of streetfighting, let's look at the next map. this is focusing on kyiv. we go back and forth, summer spelling with a g and some with an h. they've gone back and forth. a second airport just off the map, there has been fighting, russian advances on this. pete talked about it, control of the airport gives a big advantage to the russian military on taking control. will: we talk about the tenets of war and taking the high

ground is so important. we have general kellogg, to create air superiority. the first night was a big surprise. might've been preserving interest about the russians want to use these airbases themselves and thought they could fight on the ground. rachel: this is an attack on a thermal plant or a water plant. to this day, we will move on. for four years we were told russians good cyber attack a foreign power and control their elections, they haven't turned out the lights or the internet in kyiv which wouldn't require a bomb if you had major cyber ninjas who could turn out the lights into the internet. i'm mystified by this and looking for answers. i will get you really quickly.

this is just over a 10-year period, the russian advances into the southern region of what would have been the soviet influence. you can see in 2014, took control of crimea giving them a strategic advantage and here is the eastern european russian separatist controlled areas, these are vladimir putin's advances a little over a decade of reestablishing some control. ukraine would be a huge leap forward. pete:the other state we can point to his belarus, a client state of russia. if you look at that and other red portions we've been talking

about the encirclement of russia, vladimir putin using that as justification whether he's making it for propaganda reasons or believes it but that is encirclement of ukraine. you've seen encirclement of ukraine. how long he has prepared to take out ukraine. speaking of resources i am mystified what they were taking out. it was vladimir putin believing his own propaganda believing it could be done without taking things out. my initial reaction showing you how much we don't know is what our perceptions might be i thought it was ukrainians blowing up i pipeline to prevent russian energy from creating more of a crunch. so many dynamics on who has leverage and sounds like it was

the russians but any moment you see one side trying to do something to squeeze the other. will: these are russian advances not highlighted on this map, they are nato advances as they become nato am a poland, romania, baltics right up here and a piece of green in that advance, which is connected. rachel: you were there at cpac, you talk about perception. when you talk about advances that were made by the russians, trump talked about when those advances are made, georgia under bush, crimea under obama, nothing under trump and in the first year we have this with ukraine. the invasion is creating harrowing images as ordinary

have been conscripted, not allowed to leave, are a lot of women, married or unmarried found themselves alone in shelters, fleeing is men are fighting or are they fighting and leaving during the day to take part in operations, how is that working out? >> my husband is recruiting military forces. and protect us. and to protect to these places all over ukraine. women have to stay to gather with my relatives and her kids. since we are adults, to protect

our children. that is how it is. pete: we wish you the best of luck and our thoughts and prayers are with you and your family. thank you. >> glory to ukraine. pete: president biden says the impact of his sanctions may not be felt for some time. alexandria half joins us from wilmington with more. >> reporter: president biden is here in delaware for a memorial service, he will be working in washington by tomorrow morning but while in delaware he did authorize $300 million in military assistance for ukraine. the us and allies have committed to the "nuclear option" which is blocking certain russian banks from the

swift financial system to boulder sanctions already announced and isolate vladimir putin. here's what president biden said. >> president biden: there is no sanction that is immediate blues not like you can sanction someone and say you are no longer going to be the president of russia. >> reporter: limitations there according to president biden. fox news was able to speak with donald trump who spoke of the bravery shown by the people and president of ukraine calling it incredible and vocalized concerns vladimir putin could have workarounds to these sanctions. >> he would need more than sanctions. a putin has sanctions always and understands how to avoid sanctions. he goes through china as an example. the sanctions have to be strong. >> reporter: the former president does fear a world

war. the biden administration has asked congress for $6.4 billion towards assisting ukraine and neighboring partner nations. 7000 additional troops deploying to europe in the next couple days and should be arriving any time and many of them from the pentagon will be part of nato's first-ever response force deployment. they are joining up with other countries, trying to protect the nations we have. pete: thank you for breaking that down. the sanctions won't be immediate as were never meant to deter, they admitted they were never going to deter, all very effective. the former president was on the stage last night, gave a speech for over an hour and a big part of what he touched on his what

is happening in ukraine and the actions of russia. this didn't happen under his watch. he said it wouldn't have happened if he was still the president. >> president biden turned call into chaos, competence into incompetence, stability into anarchy and security into catastrophe. the russian attack on ukraine is appalling, and outrage and an atrocity. under bush, russia invaded georgia. under obama russia took crimea, under biden, russia invaded ukraine. i stand as the only president of the 21st century on whose watch russia did not invade another country. under our leadership the world was a peaceful place because

america was strong and the perception of our country was like it had never been before. powerful, cunning, and smart. we were a smart country. now we are a stupid country. joey: in a moment of war you want to avoid domestic partisanship you can't avoid facts. the truth is what donald trump had to say is the truth. those advances were made during those administrations, not during his. i like how he clarified it. vladimir putin is a strong man, that's different from being a strong man or a man who is strong. a strong man requires perception of strength. it requires you attack the perception of weakness. vladimir putin sensed weakness and made his move. many things went well during

the trump administration and some did not. we will be honest about every aspect but i think one of the assets of the trump administration in addition to the perception vladimir putin had that we were strong and cannot make the move was donald trump was unpredictable. i don't know what donald trump will do so i better not do. will: the bush doctrine was preemptive strike. once you have the intelligence, you attack, the trump doctrine was the idea of moving away from the forever war but staying with the assets necessary to install the bush doctrine. equal and more. the truth of it, he's running

for office until he tells me he is into. and that was a good campaign >> much is anything. but putin did not do this under donald trump but president biden is the president. what i want to know is if you are running for president how will you fix this? i want to know it from the republicans who are running for office in the next 12 months. joey: rachel: donald trump showed us his doctrine, economic power is national security, energy independence is national security. one of the first things he did was disavow that we could not be energy independent. this is a green new deal war. this is john kerry's war. we are in this position because we allowed russia to be empowered and enriched because of our energy policy. we are doing to our own country what germany did to theirs,

shut down, germany has no more coal, shut down there last nuclear plant, and made themselves codependent. why are we doing that in our country? this needs to end and donald trump knows what to do, he -- a powerhouse and peace comes through strength. pete: don't underestimate the uncertainty. he told a story when we started negotiating with the taliban and i said if you touch a hair on american soldiers head we will do things you like you have never seen and the head of the taliban said why did you give me a picture of my house and donald trump said i don't need to answer that question. think about that idea, the psychological aspect of the unpredictable nature of what donald trump presented 2 other leaders.

pete: he told vladimir putin if you invade ukraine i will level moscow. the point is if you do this i will do this. that was his motto. i do want to know, it is valuable to look back and say what went wrong could. we need to look forward, how do we move forward. rachel: he started to look week with afghanistan but let's be fair and say he looks weeks during the campaign. he looked in prepared and not ready to be president. will: as the world condemns russia for invading ukraine, what we need to know about china next.

washington dc. aside from public gatherings imposing strict sanctions on president putin with russian oligarchs. one of those oligarchs owns british soccer club which is playing later today announcing yesterday he's stepping away from day-to-day operation. they plan to show solidarity with ukraine and protests the war. rachel: abstaining from voting anyone security council resolution condemning flattery putin's invasion. welcome to "fox and friends". tell us what china is thinking and how they will take advantage of this situation. >> reporter: no one should be surprised by china have silence and complicity in the ukraine crisis. look what china has done since russia invaded ukraine.

they sent fighter jets into taiwan's airspace, to intimidate the taiwanese people and offered vladimir putin economic relief with an import from russia. china also offered russia ways to even western sanctions on russia's banking system by encouraging them to use chinese currency and banking system to a us dollar dominated system. china is partner with russia and china made clear by announcing a joint statement with vladimir putin for china and russia are united against the united states. rachel: the danger in a situation is how it is falling apart in ukraine, that russia will be aligned with china and that is the real threat to america.

>> sign is doing this for its own benefit. chinese leader xi jinping, to have china ultimately the sole power in the autocracy friendly world order and sees russia as a valuable partner to achieve that goal but economically week and a militarily aggressive russia. the russian military can keep the united states occupied and attention away from china's political expansion. economically isolated will become so dependent on china, make sure that vladimir putin cannot challenge china's dominance. that is the game plan for china. rachel: biden has not called out china. holding out hope he can get

help from china in addressing vladimir putin. i imagine you think that is naïve. >> that is so delusional i cannot believe it. nothing china has done so far should give president biden that confidence that somehow china will be a responsible partner in solving the ukraine crisis. rachel: thank you for joining us. >> thank you for having me. alicia of a desperate plea from an alabama family, bringing home of the boy they plan to adopt from ukraine. we have their story next. >> are you ready to start a great career? >> safelite is now hiring. >> you will love your job. >> there's room to grow... >> ...and lots of opportunities. >> so, what are you waiting for? >> apply now... >> ...and make a difference. >> singers: ♪ safelite repair, safelite replace. ♪ >> man, i love that song! before nexium 24hr, anna could only imagine a comfortable night's sleep without frequent heartburn waking her up.

russian invasion going slower than people expected. he was intelligence about the capital would be in russian hands after two days. after four days ukraine's government is in control. for the last several hours we've seen a lot of artillery shells hitting four miles from us by the northwest. one after the other for several minutes at a time. we've seen streetfighting inside ukraine with smaller amounts of russian troops with but this artillery and intensity is something new. a giant fuel depot is hit and that orange glow through the night. there is intense fighting going on in kharkiv you. ukrainian officials say they are in control of the city. that could change with more russian tanks on the way. a lot of social media posts when the russian tanks or armored vehicles role into a

village people will come out, stand in front and block those vehicles from entering their towns. pete: thank you for that. let's bring in former ambassador to israel david friedman, author of the smash hit took sledgehammer about his time working in israel to bring peace to the region. you have been following the development, oil depots getting hit that someone who was a student and practitioner of different actors with different prerogatives. what you make of it? >> god bless the ukrainians and their president. they are exceeding expectations by all accounts. the next few days are critical. i hope we got there in time in terms of the aid we are providing. they are fighting with javelins, the weapons we provided.

a significant gap in assistance could be critical. could tip the balance. i hope we are getting them what they need as quickly as they need it. especially when they performed so courageously. pete: we pointed out how significant oil and gas is, pipelines on fire now, the keystone pipeline, exploration, we talk about nordstream. another pipeline deserves to be part of the conversation because it could lesson reliance on russia. talk to us about this. >> three years ago i represented the united states in an energy summit among israel, cyprus and greece and

authorized by the president to attend that summit and voice support for a pipeline that will exploit the massive amount of natural gas under the mediterranean near cyprus and israel and pipe that into italy and europe. it had the capacity to reduce if not illuminate european deliverance the. there is that much of their. it is massive. we voiced that support and there was bipartisan legislation cosponsored by rubio and mendez to build it. and a month ago biden canceled the project and did so because natural gas is obsolete and this wasn't going to get built until 2025 which is around the

corner in financial markets. he concluded this wasn't the kind of energy the united states wants to be in the business of. pete: but nordstream 2 is? >> that is the fallacy of this, the subtext of this, it is about vladimir putin's -- the subtext is energy. not only does energy fund the war, the more vladimir putin acts, the more he has money to operate but the energy emboldens vladimir putin to know there are limits. you talk about swift right now. biden, they are saying we only want to touch swift to the extent it doesn't impact the energy markets. we won't section any transactions involving energy. the west is telling vladimir putin we want to sanction you

but not to impact the ability of the us or europe to purchase your energy. what does that mean? putin knows he has the resources to prosecute this war as long as he wants. pete: that was the east mediterranean pipeline. as we talk about keystone and nordstream, it would have been another way the west could have cut off a ladder putin from control of europe. the book talks about the efforts made to bring about the abraham accords with the book is sledgehammer and is worth checking out. up next the space race potentially grounded as russia warns the white house its sanctions could destroy cooperation on the international space station. that is next.

will: russian official warning sanctions could destroy cooperation with the international space station. the head of russia's space

agency asking who will save the iss from an uncontrolled the orbit and falling to the united states or europe. it is not flyover russia so all the risks are yours. here to react, former astronaut lieutenant colonel andy allen. from a distance, that is pretty scary. any legitimacy to that threat from russia? >> a little bit of legitimacy to it but it is interesting a lot of folks don't realize space has always been a little bit of a political realm. we have had things like the race to the moon under jfk's leadership, strategic defense initiative under ronald reagan. the space station program the clinton administration decided on a cooperative space exploration program. space has always had some value

and technology development which had great return on our investment. we are at a point in this cooperative environment we built for the space station we put russia in the critical path, as we call it, critical components of the space station in their control. now that it has entered into this political arena, they have an opportunity to make things a mess. i think there's bigger things from a space perspective they can deal with than the space station like take away our internet or datastream or communications or gps. will: i didn't know if it was a financial contribution or if they have technological control of what is happening in space. >> we as a nation and the administration at the time, was part of the develop and process, made a conscious

decision to allow the russians to have a critical component on the space station, some level of control with her there mission control. moscow as well as a propulsion element of the space station, it was a cooperative agreement. it is a lose/lose situation at the working level between cosmonauts, astronauts, engineers, and scientists and all the trainers and working level folks, we all see the value of what we are doing. will: theoretically they do have the capability of disabling the space station? >> they have the capability. we would have to counter that capability but they have the capability. will: we rely on what you said, the mutual lose/lose, greater

cooperation and the cost of their cosmonauts, the capability, thank you for explaining it. will: is ukrainians flee, working round-the-clock to make the escape. he is live from the war zone next. iration right through my glass. so when my windshield cracked, i chose safelite. they replaced the glass and recalibrated my safety system. that's service i can trust. >> singers: ♪ safelite repair, safelite replace. ♪ is now a good time for a flare-up? enough, crohn's! for adults with moderate to severe crohn's or ulcerative colitis, stelara® can provide relief, and is the first approved medication to reduce inflammation on and below the surface of the intestine in uc. you, getting on that flight? back off, uc! stelara® may increase your risk of infections, some serious, and cancer. before treatment, get tested for tb.

[speaking russian] will: the people of ukraine defending their land. branded video showing the firefight just hours ago as russian military tries taking the country's second-largest city. rachel: the fuel supply took a direct hit. pro ukraine rallies in germany, thousands protesting while honoring the countless innocent lives that were taken.

will: todd pirate peter exists standing by. we begin in lviv with mike tobin. what is the update? >> reporter: a couple big explosions we are following, the first one to the southwest of the capital city of kyiv. it was a direct hit on one of ten tanks and a fuel depot resulting in a gigantic ball of flame that went into the sky complicated by the fighting because the firefighters could not get into put the flames down. a large explosion in kharkiv the mayor of that town says ukrainian forces have once again repelled the resin invaders. ukrainians say the russians got a hold of a natural gas line, no word on what it will tax the fuel reserves for that area. the ukrainian foreign minister has been reaching out to

foreigners to join the fight. is sweet reads foreigners willing to defend the ukraine, i invite you to contact foreign diplomatic missions of ukraine, we defeated hitler and we will defeat vladimir putin too. we spoke with people out here, a young lebanese man who has been in ukraine studying who feels this is home and is willing to join the fight. >> unless there's a chance right now. >> reporter: not just the men. valentina constantineoska is from a town near the crimean peninsula. she thinks she could help with the injured. she was quoted saying i know they will kill me but so it

shall be as her death will mean less young people will die. what we are seeing in lviv is refugees, the traffic on the streets is light if you come to the center of town. things have largely been peaceful was we made it through the night with no air raid sirens. will: interesting updates, the second-largest city in the northeast of the country. that video they were showing of that mechanized infantry column in that neighborhood, ultimately looks like a small suburban neighborhood. you see the fire from the turds and those other directions which would be ukrainians attempting to defend it. this isn't a big city or big

portion of the city, you have to get out of your vehicles at some point. walk on foot where you are very exposed, then those don't appear to be heavily armored vehicles, that is what larry putin hopes to avoid. that is where you get logged down, you know this very well, can become very protracted, very dangerous and cause a lot of casualties. now that we hear that kharkiv has been taken back, that is how tough this is with ukrainians willing to fight. obolonskyi pete: the worst thing that can happen is battles take place in this setting. ukrainian military battling

russians in people's backyards, that is not what we want to happen but that happens when you take a country and its largest city. that may be the battle we see for the next several days. pete: we learned from your interviews, the force on the defense has a 6 to 1 advantage. tape pay attention to that. how much to believe or not to believe, should we believe the ukrainians took back kharkiv? one undeniable fact right now is the tricolor russian flag does not fly over and any major ukrainian city. what is the current state of play? that is fluid right now russian control over major cities -- our next guest is sheltering in a kyiv basin, helping fellow ukrainians.

he joins us now. thank you for being with us. tell us what is happening, how you feel about your community is responding to the situation in kyiv. >> everyone is hunkering down lose the last two nights have been very intense in the city. they've been trying hard to break through the barricades and obstacles that are put in place to protect the city. it doesn't stop them from shelling. i am talking to you from right now, the explosion you referred to, it is 20 minutes from where i am talking from right now. the situation is dire and now

is the time for everyone to put aside their egos and personal interests and use their voice. every elected official that has a voice needs to get out there and to join everybody else playing catch up because that's what the west is doing. will: you have firefight outside your doorstep come of the ukrainian military to the point civilians are shooting at the russians? >> it could be both. attacking forces infiltrating civilian clothing and coming out of vehicles. we have a curfew which is helping to identify who should be on the streets. i'm not watching the actual firefight. i can hear it just before we came online, there were shots being fired within 200 yards.

hard to tell right now but it has been going on the last three days. in different areas around the city. rachel: what are you doing to protect the orphans? >> everything we can. we are hunkering down in basements of the synagogue, in metro stations and schools. everywhere possible, there are hundreds of thousands of people, with underground spaces, some form of covering or a bomb shelter they are protecting themselves from. there's an issue with providing them with food. no one can go out or give them extra stuff. we have children in a school across the bridge from where i

am and i'm working to get them food, regardless of the fact we have a curfew. hopefully they will manage until tomorrow morning. it is a big problem. we are doing the humanitarian drive. we will be delivering food supplies and essential needs to 30,000 plus homes across the country we are close contact with. the federation of jewish community encompasses 100 native communities including big cities, small cities, outlying areas and villages, half 1 million jews living in ukraine, over 200 emissaries still here in country. none of us have left which everyone is here with their wives, their children.

showing -- joey: it's difficult enough doing what you are doing. as you think about your work are you thinking days? are you thinking weeks? what is people's anticipation of the timeframe? >> we don't have a timeframe. we are begging everyone to do what you can to stop what is going on. this is a war against everything that is good. this is a more against justice. there is no justification for what is going on. everyone needs to get out and understand you need to do everything you can to help stop what is going on. a few months ago we were standing together with the president of germany celebrating, commemorating 80 years of the tragedy and everyone was saying never again and here we are in ukraine come

in kyiv, 15 minutes from where we are now, saying put those words never again into action. tomorrow could be too late. i'm not mincing words. the ukrainian government feels isolated. they need friends with action, not words. pete: we hear you and appreciate your words and see if they lead to action. >> your help can get the word out. thank you. joey: i don't know if everyone, i don't want to take it for granted or sermon eyes what he's talking about with what happened 80 years ago. i'm learning a lot of this now. i have been falling into the rabbit hole of world war ii documentaries the last several weeks but the holocaust we think of is taking place in

poland and it did overwhelmingly. that is the site of the concentration camps. before the concentration camps the major sites of the holocaust is where we were talking about, belarus, latvia, lithuania and it was in ukraine and the jewish population of ukraine even before world war ii, the victims of horrendous human rights crimes. the significance of that is to look at the united front of the ukrainian people because the jewish population of ukraine hasn't always benefited under the banner of ukrainian nationalism but here you see a united front in ukraine, jewish population, ethnic ukrainians united. rachel: he says take action and it is not clear to me what exactly that action is, action to stop what we are seeing right now is to take on vladimir putin? is it sanctions? is it to declare ukraine a

neutral zone that will not enter nato? there are so many questions, we are in a place where a lot of us, myself included, i don't trust our leaders anymore. beginning with the iraq war all the way to the last two years of lies i heard about covid and this pandemic to hearing our leader, president biden, talking about freedom and boundaries and borders in ukraine and he is the same guy who told justin trudeau to crush the truckers convoy, refused to give the internet to the freedom fighters in cuba last summer. where does it end? didn't have much sympathy on the democrat side and many other people around the world for the hong kong freedom fighters and supporting people who were burning our flag and burning our cities which i'm

very confused. i am very -- i don't -- i'm not cynical but i don't know what to believe anymore. joey: that is all fair not to mention they care about borders in ukraine but not our own border at all and the demonstration of how everything unfolded in afghanistan. the lack of confidence isn't just in the white house but our institutions, the defense department, the state department. john kerry running around saying it distracts from the climate change problem. this is the frustration i share with you, look at a situation like this and say what can america do and how does it affect us? we can have that discussion. but you can't disconnect that from the feeling of the people in the white house i don't trust to make sound judgments

based on confidence or a good view of america's role in the world and regardless what they choose doesn't feel like it will end well. that the demoralizing feeling because he wanted to believe america can lead and their options we can take shorter further entanglement, troops on the ground, short of hurting our economy even more, failure of imagination is real when you have sheer incompetence in the white house and other priorities which people are watching this happen in ukraine, feel horrible for the ukrainian people and want to see vladimir putin lose but they say i don't know how we do anything about it. sanctions not working, swift helps a little bit more but it is confusing. it is important we have midterms coming up, we get to pick our leaders in this country and if you don't have faith in the once we have it is important to realize we have

the opportunity here to be a part of that system, ask the right questions, get the right answers and decide who to vote for and the people we don't have a lot of faith in, figure it out. that is not a place you want to be. it is important we call balls and strikes that also that we remove our own emotions and say what are the options and what should our leader do to put pressure on our leaders to do that? not just say i can't believe he missed this up or messed that up. what is his next move and can we put pressure on the president to take the right move? pete: many americans i have spoken to are sitting where you are sitting who see this, feel we should have done more in the past, how do we avoid a nuclear war? what is the american interest? all of these tough questions we are all struggling with. rachel: why don't we have our own energy? why do we leave it in the ground?

joey: some additional headlines. carley: some news happening at home including this, three people are hospitalized after a floor collapsed at an overcrowded house party. a portion of the first floor collapsed involving 100, two 150 teenagers. fire officials say the other two suffered minor injuries. the dc national guard is activating 400 guard members at of the anti-mandate trucker protests expected to hit the capital this week. several convoys are demonstrating coast-to-coast starting in california and driving across the country to dc. some folks will rally on the state of the union address. elon musk activating his starling satellite to provide ukraine with internet. he announced the move on twitter in response to a direct plea to the foreign minister for help, the network of

satellites will provide connectivity from low orbit, how they alleviate internet blackouts in ukraine for land-based internet hub. how great is that? rachel: why didn't he help the cubans? >> we need information. will: another international crisis, president biden announces his nominee to the supreme court. is this to distract from failed foreign policy. shannon bream as the analysis next.

rachel: the verdict is in. ketanji brown jackson is president biden's pick for the supreme court but most voters think it was inappropriate for biden to only consider african-american women for the seat. that is great to have you this morning. ted cruz weighed in on this, according to the way president biden set this up only 94% of americans would not be eligible for this because of the

criteria the you have to be a woman and you have to be african-american. >> polling shows, they do it this way. judge jackson is incredibly qualified, the best education, a clerkchip for justice breyer on the supreme court, years as a public defender, she has a resume that any supreme court contender would have. it is unfair that some people will say she was the pick because the president laid out specific criteria rather than looking at her years on the federal bench and other things that qualify her. setting that criteria before selecting her to her is a little bit unfair. andrea: makes her look like an affirmative action candidate but i will say jonathan turley said she did lack experience, the kind of experience you

expect and based on her rulings that she would be a win for unions. >> i think one of the things folks are looking at, she was only confirmed to her current position on the federal bench which is the appellate court less than a year ago so a lot of people would like to see more experience than that in a nominee but prior to that, years on the federal bench as a different court, we don't have as many opinions to dig through for her. she has been reversed by the circuit court she sits on on a somewhat regular basis. that calls into question whether she was making good decisions of the district court and her ascension to the circuit court, she sits on that court, and she did pro bono work for guantánamo bay.

those things can come both ways versus how you feel about those particular things and she will get grilled on those that republicans have a real opportunity. they complained about a tough situation that brett cavanagh went through, things they thought was unfair with respect to justice barrett. now they can take the high road, democrats have the votes to make judge jackson into justice jackson so republicans should try to keep this clean. they don't like the personal attack, they can do this in a civilized way. andrea: no danger of forgetting the brett cavanagh treatment. i want to move to another topic. you know how i love your first book women of the bible. for preorder at fox news books.com, your first book was

a runaway bestseller, the best-selling book that fox ever put out. why do you think, there's an appetite for stories about women and faith. what is behind that? >> you and i study the bible and we know these women stories are there in the old and new testament and they are there for a reason. we are lifting them out and highlighting them so people can see that god was using women all through the bible. they are key players, not footnotes, they are the stars of the show and had real purpose to their story. some of them are very faithful and a good relationship as mothers and daughters which others have trickier stories and make mistakes but that's all of us. i love the comforting message that even in things that make no sense to us when we

ourselves take ourselves off-track, it is an encouraging message. god is using it for good. we dig into these mother-daughter relationships and give people a fresh look at these women in the bible you may not know much about but you will after you read this book. andrea: my daughters and i will be part of your rollout and i look forward to that. thanks for the beautiful stories about women and the bible. thanks. coming up, samaritan's versus mobilizing disaster response. franklin graham joins us with how you can help with this amazing organization coming up. >> woman: what's my safelite story? i see inspiration right through my glass. so when my windshield cracked, i chose safelite. they replaced the glass and recalibrated my safety system.

health, in north carolina ready for deployment and getting one of those ready right now. cargo aircraft will fly over this weekend set that up. they want us to put it on the border. the ukrainians asked we put one on the ukrainian side. we have to look at that more carefully but we will do that. will: you are working with 3000 churches in ukraine. was it active in other ways? >> we have 3200 churches, 660,000 shoebox gift delivered to ukraine a few weeks ago. they were in the process of distributive them to children. that is still going on.

they are not facing conflict. the people of ukraine are suffering and there are a lot of contacts. we will help as much as we can. will: are you getting reports back from your team? is that the humanitarian crisis? has it reached that point with people trying to get out of ukraine? >> i talked to someone on the border. they estimate close to 100,000 have crossed the border into poland in a stream of people. the problem is with mulled over --maldova romania and poland they are not set up to handle this so we all have to help these people. it is going to get worse in the

their need as you can see is extremely urgent. right now, you can give a gift of life of $25 that will help rush an emergency food box to an elderly jewish person who doesn't have enough to eat. together, we bring them comfort and love but just as important we bring them this life-saving food box. a gift of $25 will help rush one emergency food box. without your response, their pain and suffering will continue. inside of every box we put a note that says, "this box is donated because of the generosity of christians around the world." this trusted ministry has given christians like me a way to tangibly bless jewish people who are in need around the world. wherever in the world the jewish people have the greatest need

most of the russian people are not for this invasion. as you have spoken about and we heard on the channel for days now vladimir putin is on somewhat of an island. these videos you are seeing come alive shots and videos demonstrate that. this begs the question, we mentioned in your intro a number of these people are being arrested, what happens as this invasion goes south, for vladimir putin? is it just arrests or something more? a situation to monitor over the next couple days. meantime the reality of war sitting in for the people of ukraine. one, 79-year-old woman taking up arms and vowing to fight for her grandchildren against the invading russians while palaces turn to bomb shelters for safety. a baby born in a subway station turned into a makeshift shelter.

katie pavlich is here to react. here are the polls we are referencing. congressional job performance right now 26% approval, 69% disapproval compared to june. the point is headed in the wrong direction. what does it mean for the midterms? >> reporter: if you look at the 2020 elections republicans gained a number of house seats beyond what many predicted. a slim majority for democrats in the house and slim majority for nancy pelosi, in decades. republicans have a good chance of taking back the house. the real news could be whether republicans can take the senate, georgia, president biden is underwater, he is underwater in arizona, washington and vermont,

republican candidates, he can't get a win on any issues and not to mention he ran as a moderate and having a majority in washington dc, governing as a far left radical. to look at the state of the union, a socialist member of the house. given a response to the state of the union to defend president biden against moderate democrats who haven't gone far enough. americans are looking at the situation saying too much power for democrats, president biden hasn't delivered as a moderate and they are looking for balance against a white house that is occupied. by democratic president. will: it will be the interesting to see the far left respond to the state of the union but all that matters,

don't know what he can brag about. what he can claim a victory on. inflation, crime, where does he find something to brag about? >> is your life better a year ago or four years ago, and the answer is no when your grocery bill has tripled, gas bill has tripled and the white house strategy at this point until now has been to tell americans the pain they are feeling in every aspect of their lives isn't happening, inflation was transitory, blamed an increase in food prices on food conglomerates and corporations, you had jen saki marking people saying they may not get their treadmills on time or weren't

getting basic necessities, and inflation is a high-class. they are out of touch and he has nothing to brag about. every category, the economy, foreign-policy and over the past 6 months under president biden which has implications for people at home doesn't have much to brag about but he will blame others for policies he has implemented whether climate change agenda they move forward with which is why he's trying to bolster against the russia ukraine problem saying gas prices might go up more when it is a result of them trying to transition the united states to other forms of energy. doesn't have a lot of wins and you will see a lot of blaming other people.

joey: so out of touch with the american public at large. it would be out of touch if the strategy is i'm going to blame others. a guy who has been out of office for a year, whoever they choose to blame it on not sure blame will work with the american voter. great to talk to you on sunday morning. up next the us and european allies have cut off russia from the major international banking system but will those sanctions be enough to cripple russia's economy.

joey: here's the topic we talked about throughout the morning, undoubtedly one of the most important dishes about this crisis in ukraine and that is us energy independence. you talk about this all morning. energy independence is national security. we learned that lesson and watching it unfold on the global stage. we saw it in germany and europe, energy dependence on russia makes them vulnerable. by suppressing our own oil and gas production we buy russian older emboldening vladimir

putin to do what he wantss on the world stage. senator lindsey graham had this to say. >> how smart do you have to be to figure out how to hurt vladimir putin the most? go after his personal assets and declare war on the russian oil and gas sector. it will hurt us in the short term. we can replace, i would like a lower carbon economy. i believe climate change is real but what is most real in front of us is russia get away with destroying ukraine, china going into taiwan and iran will sprint to a nuclear weapon was what we do today and in the coming days will determine, if i thought there was a way to deal with vladimir putin without creating problems at home i would do it but pay now or pay later. rachel: i don't think the media and other networks are holding the left to account for what has happened in europe.

you look at germany, they got rid their call industry, got rid of their last nuclear plant this past year and they are dependent on russia for gas and oil and we are listening to the same extremists whether is john kerry or aoc these people are responsible for this war and you hear president biden say i want to lower oil and gas prices and he wants to we can vladimir putin's power but to me it sounds like i call it the meatloaf policy. i will do anything but make america energy independent again and that is the meatloaf policy. i will do anything but that but that is what we need. will: a problem with biden's presidency, he comes in as a moderate and shifts to appeasing his far left and i don't know if it is because the

squad raised $1 million, not sure why that is so important is maybe it's the one argument the people in the white house steer him and that is where they are but we talk about energy independence france doesn't have this problem. nuclear energy is a clean energy we have access to and i recently learned and i believe it that our own defense industrial complex is one of the biggest expansions of nuclear energy to hold onto that information and not make it available to the private sector. there is a defense problem once the private sector, there's a strategic reason but it goes into what we are talking about. we can't improve energy because it makes us vulnerable in defense which we can't improve our defense because it makes us vulnerable energy. the least we can do is turn the page back a year and produce energy.

rachel: inflation comes down when energy prices come down, more people have jobs, the biden administration talked abbott infrastructure, what do they think those are, those are infrastructure jobs, gas and oil worker, makes me so mad, people lost family supporting jobs and they were helping our country. will: energy is power. it doesn't end with energy. american manufacturing is a security issue as well. rely on china and when you become at some point geopolitical enemy of china more than a cold war what happens to manufacturing capability. let's go to pete in florida who has further insights on economic impact. rate pete: we have a guy who knows it better sitting next to me. russia facing financial

penalties including a ban from swift, the crucial network russia and the us and other countries use to connect with banks around the world long considered the backbone of international financing. the nickname of our next guest, larry kudlow, foxbusiness host and our friend. >> you rode the bench. pete: started from the beginning. most of us are googleing swift. what impact would it have? >> to be short, swift is an information and communication system, not a payment system. it tells you what transactions will take place, where and how but it is not a money transfer.

it will make life harder for russian commercial banks but ultimately sanctioning theok g.

oil prices in 2014 got back to

$100, vladimir putin took crimea and with the fracking revolution which started under obama even though he opposed it and continued under trump with energy independence oil prices were low, 25, 45, $50 you never heard from vladimir putin. the past year oil prices have jumped from $50 to $100. vladimir putin made $85 billion in profits from that and he's using that money to finance his war on ukraine. the moral of the story, open the spigots. biden is doing the reverse which is press conference thursday biden attacked, don't take advantage, jennifer granholm, the energy secretary has a hold on six export projects. she won't put it through. the interior department has stopped all new federal leasing for new projects whether it is

oil and gas, they are doing everything to help vladimir putin rather than hurt. i am for sanctions. we need to go further, sanction the central bank, all the commercial banks. that will hurt a lot but ultimately pour it on. we could produce 15 million barrels a day. we are at 11.5 now. you do that gasoline prices come down. world crude price comes down. vladimir putin loses money. like ukraine, it will cost a lot more, that is the way to go after him. reinstate the keystone pipeline. i'm not against renewable. i'm saying don't close down our principal source, we are handing vladimir putin profits to exercise his whatever demonic, he wants to break up

nato, drill drill drill, remember that old one? will: class dismissed, university of larry kudlow. we have the whole breakdown on energy and why it is so important to. right now the fourth hour of fox and friends start. ♪ and not fox news alert people of ukraine brand-new video showing just hours ago russia's military making the second largest. russian forces releasing gunfire, hitting the country's fuel supply overnight. one man sheltering in a trend by the basement working around-the-clock to help fellow ukrainian and orphanage and schools joined us earlier.

>> firefight within a couple of blocks there is constant shelling going on. the situation is dire progress at an moscow prussian place are breaking at protesters who are calling for an end to the deadly violence in ukraine. this all ukrainian refugees cross the border into poland. we have fox team coverage we have pete, jennifer, also standing by. but we begin with their own tide as corrupt. >> rachel, will, and joey. we have breaking news this is extremely concerning russian president vladimir putin ordering nuclear forces to be put on high alert for this cause what he calls quote aggressive statements by leading bars ornaments putin has ordered russia's nuclear weapons prepared for increased readiness to launch. raising the threat that the tensions could boil over into nuclear warfare. meantime, take a look at what is happening in this country just incredible video showing people engaging in antiwar

demonstrations. this happening, i believe on your screen according to that bug it says berlin. we do have previous video of stuff happening at moscow. a number of demonstrations there. russian law enforcement taken those individuals into custody. even wrestling them to the ground in some instances. hundreds if not thousands of people showing up there in moscow assigned people up russia do not support putin invading ukraine and killing innocent people. i believe there is the live shot of a protest in moscow. another show of support we previously showed this is the video of berlin now people showing up for a pro ukraine at rally but also just coming at moments ago ukrainian envoys will meet with russian diplomats as troops draw closer to kyiv it. no word from the white house on the new reporting out of russia by the president in wilmington, delaware this weekend. will, obviously a major development over to you. >> that is the very least concerning todd thank you for that updater.

vladimir putin putting nuclear controls on alert. let's go to the state of play let's look at the landscaping we have pete and joey to jump in what we are seeing right now. as you wake up this morning this is rush controlled the new credit we talk throughout this process four days into this war russia control in the eastern side of ukraine for this is lviv where they've had control for some time. they're moving toward kyiv of zoom in on that just a moment. the attempt to take that city somewhat unsuccessfully. but pete you pointed this out throughout the morning, the major advances of the russian military seem to be coming from the south out of crime yet which vladimir putin took in 2014. there are ukrainian cities throughout the south right now where the fight is on. although it's on the south, pete lee should count out kharkiv the second biggest city in ukraine that one is going back and forth. there is no russian flag flying over kharkiv paper talking

russian military personnel carriers going to the streets of kharkiv. >> that is right the tactical level going back and forth in kharkiv the smaller airport in kyiv is going back and forth. it is significant. vladimir putin is hoping for commie base because forefront you pointed them all out is one of them his forces will be able to punch through. that has not happened in donbas with the two breakaway regions and ease that happened a little in the northeast as far as kharkiv payment down in the south and crimea it appears russian forces have been able to break through since that is dangerous for two reasons but want to punch through there can be a lot of open space between your that in the next objective. they could move quickly you could anticipate two reasons that is dangerous. one another front on kyiv an avenue of approach right now in kyiv there must defend against troops in the northwest and northeast. their defense is our focus that way. if troops join from the south, you are now literally surrounded

and kyiv as you try to defend that by the other option you put your finger on it right now is if those troops advanced north you cut off the ukrainian forces that are in the eastward the ones on the front lines in donbas. that's significant at the start of this conflict up to 60% of ukrainian forces where they are defending the eastern flank of ukraine. that is where they had been fighting for eight years. so if you get a significant part of your combat power tied down and the east and then surrounded because of vladimir putin tank columns and others are able to do so, that is critical. so you have zelensky and his generals trying to decide whether to recall some of the street from the east and allow take more that eastern portion, or whether they stay and fight there. time works against putin but in some ways it also works against the ukrainians. because they can open up to france for a quick let's move through a little here. this map shows you, zoom in and of kyiv but pete was talking about this is where the airport back and forth.

you and i spoke off-line a little earlier multiple other airports also the site of the battle this morning paper joey i want to move forward to the greater state of play. this only hear vladimir putin begin to talk about and use the nuclear threat let's make no mistake about what this is and what is greater omissions are paid what you are looking at here is nato country for this is nato highlighted in blue during the cold war. what you see here are the nato countries that join after the fall of the soviet union from the 1990s on forward. lithuania, latvia, has poland, romania you see it right here ukraine is he the strategic advantage and why it is so important to vladimir putin, joey. this represents the greater state of play. this represents putin's fears and ambitions. >> we talked earlier about this countries that after the fall the ussr joined nato. somehow it's presented in a way is nato saying come be with us like they are trying nato

expanses of the term use of your small country just left with the ussr you are surrounded at least on two fronts by russia you're going to want to align with somebody. and so now we get into this is it provoke? we talk about russia threatening or perhaps the state of ukraine. sent out finland and sweden want to join the nato coalition. and so these are global alliances that matter long-term because the next big opportunity for something like this to happen means if new countries are and nato that's new places they can draw us into war. we have his interest as american citizens to understand what these maps mean and why it is important. i don't know six months ago i would've cared a finland joint nato now i understand why it should that's are trying to do is present to our viewers the dynamics at play here. in support and understand we are electing leaders. when they talk about this on the stump speech what they are talking about and why that matters but. >> it's very interesting as we

look at this map, well, i draw different conclusion that my friend joey does right here. as i look at this i see a first about i see a lot of europeans who want to be defended who do not want to pay a lot of money for it. at some point pay up. and two, i look at finland, sweden, i look at ukraine. we also have to look at things from the perspective of a russia. ukraine could have been -- they would prefer to remain neutral from their perspective. and maybe all they wanted from us, we don't know that. maybe all they wanted from nato was for us to set ukraine will enter into nato we could also provide weapons to them but obviously we have not done. pete you brought this up yesterday whatever weapons they have they got from trump the obama administration would giving them blankets. there's lots of other options and now we just had todd talking about nuclear readiness.

we have escalated this thing. we have to take responsibility on the west for our part. >> two things i would make her joey brings up sweden and finland okay that is where we have seen vladimir putin begin to ramp up his threats. hey, sweden and finland if you joint nato expect strong, physical, violent russian response i was vladimir putin. aunt rachel i hear you this is a conversation not a debate. i hear you were going to talk more about nato paying its own way. there's also the argument for self-determination. if ukraine wants to be part of nato, is that hours are vladimir putin's decision to make for them? they have a right to determine their own future. letting her put in us try to save know you don't, i decided for you. lastly, we don't have that map it appears at the russian advances over time. you can see it all sat really quick, pete you point out. georgia 2008, crimea 2014, ukraine, 2022. that is a putin's push up

against nato, pete go ahead. >> note first of all i totally agree europe needs to pay out. germany started to talk about their defense budget finally. it takes a rapid madman to release they might have to defend themselves. maybe this is a wake-up call. the scary part of this, is the self-fulfilling prophecy feedback that could be happening. regardless of who pushed first part wasn't nato expansion that cause putin or putin's aggression that cause nato expansion. if we get to the point putin is pushing so nato response in nato adds more countries and then putin says we need to be a nuclear high alert. the question is who steps back from the precipice versus of the rational actor or the non- rational actor? that's what it becomes serious and consequential for everybody. do not want to be doomsday let's hope we don't get there. but someone has to step back and

say -- i think vladimir putin believes his own propaganda at some level. he thanks nato is surrounding him in order to do something to russia. just like nato believes his aggression could go further. at some point. >> we just have that report we saw from todd he is now invoking the nuclear option at least laid it out there. let's go more into that and everything else involving the state of play with jennifer who is alive at the pentagon this morning. >> hi will he went to follow-up on part of the discussion that i was just hearing. rachel, in terms of russia's perspective that it is just reacting to nato expansion, i think for most of the u.s. officials i've spoken to, they do not believe this is about nato expansion. if you go back to the words that putin used in july as was last monday when he laid out his justification for essentially erasing the borders of ukraine and considering it retaking and how he considers it part of

russia. he is talking about an 18th century view of russia's borders. it has nothing to do with nato. it's more of a view. that is white poland, with the way and you and others are so concerned tonight. now what we see in terms of the fighting inside of ukraine and the resistance, extraordinary acts of bravery and incredible resistance by the ukrainian people like these are residents who stood in front of a tank and held off the full weight of the russian military for another night. also in the capitol kyiv and the second largest city kharkiv moving the hardened u.s. military commanders who anticipated the capitol would in 48 hours if putin sent forces there. russia's army even at special forces have underperformed according to the latest intelligence. russia said it sent a

negotiating team to belarus, no surprise we expected all along russia to try to fight and talk at the same time. we have now just heard from you canes president vladimir and zelensky he wants to negotiate and he is willing to send a team to the border of belarus to negotiate unconditionally per there are some concerns about the safety of that team if they leave the capitol. russia has been known to kidnap diplomats and leaders it's unclear when that will happen. but that just happened moments ago. zelensky refuses to conduct the negotiations inside belarus, a russian satellite now a russian state with restaurant wants this invasion from reports today that russia's special forces are preparing to join in an air assault on kyiv. >> there was an aggressive action from your territory. we could have talked in your

capitol when you were neutral we talked in minx many times. it is a right and honest way to talk as neighbors to each other by. >> as ukrainian doctors, lawyers and teachers continue to volunteer and are issued weapons president zelensky suggested other european capitals for talks with russia such as warsaw. ukrainian leaders would not be cultural traveling to belarus as i mentioned since russia and now it really controls that state. and they could easily be kidnapped. a number of young russian conscripts have been captured we are told ukrainian jennifer was in constant contact with the pentagon to coordinate weapons shipments at the russian troops as young as 19 years old are being allowed to call home to their mothers. many do not know why they were sent to ukraine. >> are numerous reports of ordinary citizens essentially finding, capturing all of the

russian perpetrators who came into kyiv pretending to be ukrainian citizens. they do not know kyiv they did not know our language they have no idea what ukraine is and who we are. it is pretty easy to spot them. we are at finding them capturing them, detaining them. ask the u.s. this week and has provided another three to $50 million in military aid, including antiarmor, anti- aircraft systems and small arms, they've been very effective. poland is sending ammunition. the biggest availment overnight that pete referenced is the germans getting more involved for the first time ever they have agreed to send military equipment to ukraine. they are making changes. they signed off on the swift sanctions they are also looking at how they can help ukraine further. that is significant because germany has a loss many years they could not send lethal aid

to conflict zones that is no change given the recent developments inside ukraine. >> thank you jennifer. you know, jennifer brought up vladimir putin looks at this from a 19th century point of view. she is right. he does. i thank you so much of our foreign policy in recent history has been that we want to look at the world as we wanted to be instead of the way it is. and that is how he views it. that is why ukraine, the west signaling to ukraine they could enter nato and give them the hope with that is viewed by this 19th century putin worldview as aggressive. and so again, i'm going back to todd was just here that's very frightening to me i had not heard anything like that for a long time that russia's rating

their nuclear that is very frightening stuff why are we here we also need to look at things from other people's perspective if we do not want things to escalate. again it's nice to have the germans are ready to jump on board but for a long time, donald trump has been asking europe pretty ask europe when he was president to step up and take simple responsibilities for their own defense. looks what had to happen before we get any signal of that. i hope we have time when follow-up donald trump asking germany to step up here we are four years later with germany in the face of crisis maybe we should step up i'm very concerned about what i just heard from todd pyro about nuclear being placed on the table. vladimir putin put nuclear forces on high alert as ukraine announces it will speak with russia. trey yingst is on the ground without. >> we aren't learning more this

morning about how these peace conversations got started. it appears there was a phone call between ukrainian president zelensky and the president of belarus. in an agreement came out of that phone call to hold peace talks along the border between ukraine and belarus. we should note there are still currently thousands of russian troops inside a sovereign ukrainian territories. so the prospect of peace is a great idea but the reality on the ground is that war continues yesterday a russian missile slammed into an apartment building killing at least two people in the capitol of kyiv overnight fighting continued weird air raid sirens, small arms fire in the street and even explosions this morning for this is still very much an active war zone and people are dying. we are learning a little bit more about the strike last night that hit an oil depot just south of the city. we saw smoke rising up from the horizon. an orange glow across the sky line for this capitol has been taken some pretty heavy hits over the past two days.

but kharkiv the second largest city a lot of back-and-forth with their front line as ukrainian forces and even civilians are getting involved in this fight trying to push back the russians as they make this offensive into the country. back to you by quickstart trait thanks for that that's a major breaking news of the moment of this literal moment. so rachel talked about it and ps the show progresses throughout the morning we hope we can play this clip for you that's got a little bit viral. i haven't seen it on a lot of television channels but has got a little bit viral that is donald trump sitting in front of nato members must specifically germany saying in 2018, stop buying oil from russia. it is putting you in a bad position and step up on your defense spending part is notable with lucas and tomlinson voting today. we have time to play it right now. take a look at this from 2018. >> energy is a much different story than normal. take a look at some of the countries that won't accept that they do not want to be kept at

to russia. germany as far as i am concern is captive to russia because it is getting so much of its energy from russia. so we are supposed to protect germany but they are getting their energy from russia. explain that. it can't be explained you know that. >> that is not all by the way, asking a ramp up your defense spending, contributions to nato. pair that four years ago with the news this morning from lucas and tomlinson in germany saying you know what? >> not only can you not imagine joe biden have the ability to do something like that, not even remotely capable of stringing that kind of sentence together sing in front of somebody in saying that. but he'll be saying the opposite. he would say how dear you build another coal plants? you need to have a green fleet by 2030. that is how fundamentally unserious are approaches right now. >> misty yet? you remember when he said that?

this kind of conversations are the kind i think we all miss. okay we are staying on top of the breaking developments as russia orders its nuclear forces on high alert. former national security advisor kt mcfarland on whether president biden is to blame. a promise is everything to old dominion, i recommend nature made vitamins, because it means everything to you. because i trust their quality. they were the first to be verified by usp, an independent organization that sets strict quality and purity standards. nature made. the #1 pharmacist recommended vitamin and supplement brand.

>> we are back with a fox news alert. vladimir putin ordering nuclear forces, his nuclear forces to be put on high alert. let's bring it former trump deputy national security advisor kt mcfarland to discuss this latest threat from moscow. kt thank you for being here. you are the perfect person to talk to you right now for just moments hug go our own todd piro reported that vladimir putin and a new developer this is randy on fox and friends this morning put his nuclear forces on high alert. what does that mean? sounds significant and even scary to those of us that hear it. is it unprecedented? what does it mean? >> it is scary he's upping the ante. he's got to do something right now this is not going according to the putin plan. the putin planet they thought he would be in kyiv, there'd be a

coup with president zelensky would flee. the ukrainian army would lay down its arms and he was sort of have it all wrapped up in about 48 hours that is not what is happening. the ukrainian army is fighting the ukrainian president is not leaving the mayor of kyiv is not leaving there fighting on the street to doctors and lawyers are picking up guns think they're going to fight block by block. it is in a position where he either looks incompetent, this great russian army? they can't even deal with a bunch of lawyers and housewives in ukraine? or looks like a bully as you have increasing civilian casualties. and he looks very bad to the people of russia were going to start having russian tension picked right night you see both easy tanks strand on the sides of the road in russian surrendering to local villagers. but at the same time the bombing continues. he could also up the ante through additional conventional means. it is a dual tracking hey i could drop bigger bombs the

father of all bombs on ukraine if i want too. here's his nuclear thing over here too. member of got my finger over the button don't forget that. >> a finger over the button is not about ukraine the finger over the button is a warning shot to europe, germany, to poland, to the united states. this could bring you guys into so hands-off. i think the other thing that is fascinating is a calculation of the german exchange last 48 hours but 48 hours ago they were not going to poke the bear. they were not going to endanger the life line they get from the russian energy. 50% of the energy in germany and the rest of europe comes from russia. note german chancellor is going to say to the german people, well you know, inflation's going to go even higher. were not going to have the fuel for the factories, for your cars or to heat your homes by the german calculations have changed. i think what they realize this is not just about ukraine. this is to break the back of nato and awareness putin go next? if he breaks the back of nato we

are stranded break. >> i had a chance a doctor german politician yesterday as a member of the european parliament. he was saying, but we're talk about the energy issue, he was almost resigned to the fact that very little leverage because they were so dependent on oil and gas from russia. you were not going to see a big response from them. does that mean they are prepared for half of their energy resources to go away? vladimir putin could respond by saying okay germany, i thought you're going to stay out of this one we are going to turn it off. >> vladimir putin could turn it off, draw or turn it down drive the price of oil and gas up it just makes more money for putin. think what the united states needs to do it president biden should do is do what president trump said last night. turn the energy back on an american oil and natural gas might not only are we self-sufficient we dealt inflation but that we can go to the europeans and say hey, how about buying clean america we provide natural gas. ours has no strings attached get off of the russian.

>> i've never seen a more self solution laying on the table in front of that the same time, as we say it are almost they will not touch. >> i think it is because president trump wanted it, president biden is going to not what it. it is so foolish. it solves so many problems. it deals with the american economy and the very fundamental and quick fashion. it deals with our energy security. it deals with our national security. once the price of energy goes down again to where it was a year ago, vladimir putin isn't broke. >> it is just staggering the climate zealots have so much power in our domestic politics be my colleague, rachel called at the green new deal war. our unwillingness to unleash our energy renaissance has created a vulnerability across the globe that has empowered a strong man. >> but it is also foolish.

it's eight green new deal people really cared about the environment that they look the world is not going to go from dirty coal to windmills. the world could go from dirty coal to cleanup natural gas is an intermediate step on the way to the windmills. and they won't do it and it is foolish. >> i say we skip the windows altogether they are loud and they are ugly. [laughter] kt thank you very much for your time. alright, this up next. the first soviet born citizen to be commissioned as an officer in the u.s. armed forces. joins us on putin putting nuclear forces on high alert. that is coming up. that's service i can trust. >> singers: ♪ safelite repair, safelite replace. ♪ one of my favorite supplements is qunol turmeric. turmeric helps with healthy joints and inflammation support. unlike regular turmeric supplements qunol's superior absorption helps me get

rex fox news alert break and this morning russian president vladimir putin ordered his nuclear forces to be put on high alert. trey yingst is on the ground in kyiv with what this means for the region pre- >> is a significant development

and statement by russian president vladimir putin. it escalates the art extremely high tensions, not only in this region but across the world. now, this could be a chest beating exercised by putin to say look he is in control and he has the ability to use a literal nuclear option. but it is also going to put more pressure on nato countries as the potential of direct engagement with western countries remains. the united states would have to respond if there's any sort of attack on eight nato member due to article 5a. this is that mutual deterrence agreement. we are arty seeing countries who are part of nato commit weapons to ukraine amid this conflict. so it opens up the possibility this could quickly unravel and escalate. he does not necessarily mean vladimir putin ever intend to actually use nuclear weapons. it means he's changing his posture. you'll see more russian forces in command control positions. it is significant the idea of nuclear war is something the world understands how

significant that damage would be. not only to a country but to humanity and the entire globe it is significant. it is likely posturing in the face of heavy sanctions might nato countries but it does have to be taken seriously. the international community will likely respond condemning these statements today is president putin immediately met the backdrop of possible peace talks is upping the tension. >> joey, trey, thanks for much stay safe. want to bring you tired navy captain gary the first soviet born citizen to be commissioned officer in the united states armed forces print his entire careers centered around the soviet union, understanding it and captain welcome to the show pre-thank you for joining us. >> thank you. >> i want to get right to it. you spent your entire career getting to know the soviet union. vladimir putin in general. i don't want to call it a threat we have this awareness and now he is putting his nuclear weapons.

in your words explain it to us. >> well, i think we let them get away with we let them get away with genocide in georgia, sierra, and crimea donbas the malaysian aircraft shutting it down and recently belarus and we keep sending our state department we say it is okay it's like czechoslovakia maybe it will satisfy previous appetite just increases. because we abandoned ukraine all the embassies left kyiv, nato has left kyiv. it's open season i can walk in and i will. >> them a little and they will be on their leash. but the ukrainian people are resistant to where resistant like no one else. ukrainian people are fighting not just for ukraine but for all of us. the civilians with a bare hands or stopping tanks. in america they are fighting for their land, fighting for their home, fighting for their families.

russian soldiers are fighting for putin they do not understand what they are fighting for many of them starving many refusing to fight defecting dropping their own weapons but the resistance is very strongly president zelensky who many people thought was just a clown because he is a professional comedian turned out to be very strong leader stands with his people and commands. he does not show any nervousness. a lot of ukrainians feel the west has betrayed them what president biden promised them they would be tough on putin putting would not last long. did not turn out to be the opposite. so now putin thanks the initiative of his attack is a lot or he may be losing i am not a psychiatrist at my mother was in my mother was always saying he is a psychopath who is it paranoid like hitler and stalin if they would've had a nuclear button they would not have allowed anyone to singly

belittle them with what is happened to putin right now. they would have pushed it. i do not doubt this psychopath would do it. but let me finish one more thought. but we are not mentioning one more thing, his troops have invaded chernobyl. remembered chernobyl so they are in charge there are four reactors they are shut down but they are still in service. there is an explosion or anything like that that would be eight nuclear disaster as well. rex wrote click on that topic. this is a little bit hypothetical but based on your experience, your knowledge and the conclusions you can educated the gas at, where is putin within his own country and its own ranks? now he has invaded ukraine produce a some soldiers you believe russian soldiers have decided to not even fight because they don't believe in this fight. now take it a step further he has activated the threat level of nuclear weapons. is that possibly something that would cause people within the kremlin to look at vladimir putin and say this is not the

person who should lead us? is there any pressure like that it is own ranks? >> i hope so. i hope it would be some of the oligarchs whose money is in the west to they realize they can do and he's going to lead them into the abyss. i would hope colonel stoltenberg out there that realize that and realize they pledge to the constitution of russia and the russian people not to this maniac who is threatening the world with a nuclear abyss. those reactors need to be service they cannot just sit there. this has to be serviced if not and i don't think there are crews there servicing them are in place because they have to be rotated, they have to be replaced. >> you just explain what you're saying is there's nuclear material there that cannot just be left sitting.

>> it is like our nuclear submarines they continue to be serviced even if they're just sitting there not doing anything. but the thing is i think the world of leadership the elites have to realize they are dealing not with a normal man. not a man who is well. we do not have many options. i think we are running out of time. he has put all of us in danger it is not just ukraine but ukrainians are bleeding for us right now. but they also needs weapons ukrainian scene help as well they won't be able to last much longer it's an overwhelming power, russia. they are fighting on the streets. they are fighting with molotov cocktails. >> thank you for joining us think for your insights incredibly important stay safe. thank you. >> up next maria ranks to the latest about some russia's putin puts nuclear forces on high alert.

contextualize that for us, this is not normal. this is rare. we have not seen this type of thing in the past, your reaction. >> that is right. it will, you're absolutely right. thank you very much. this is a dramatic escalation of this conflict between ukraine and russia. and it will no doubt spark a response from the free world. we are watching where the commentary comes next. but increasingly, russia is being seen as a pariah across the world after its unprovoked invasion into a perfectly free and safe, and quiet calm and peaceful country of ukraine. president zelensky this weekend is being hailed as a modern church hill as continues to step up and fight. encouraging citizens everywhere, not just in ukraine but across the world to join the fight and fight back against what he is calling a russia's terrorism. this nuclear mention and putin putting his nuclear forces on

alert creates an incredible dramatic escalation of this war right now. we will see the u.s. and the free world respond to this no doubt. and we are going to be talking about interns of congresses response with the head of the gop kevin mccarthy is here. he is just back from israel. gop leader mccarthy has had incredible conversations with leaders throughout israel about the worry of ironic getting its first nuclear bomb. and now we see russia taunting the world with these threats. under joe biden, russia has become closer with the head of saudi arabia. that is why you see collusion in terms of oil prices, sending prices skyhigh record that will continue this upcoming week pre-disrupting markets across the world. and russia has become closer with china. under joe biden's leadership of killing the xl pipeline and destroying the u.s. energy independence, you have these

leaders across the world getting together and colluding, sending prices up knowing the u.s. has no way to fight back because the progressives and joe biden and his leadership team have killed the u.s. energy independence. this is getting worse and we are talking about it with leadership this morning who has been briefed in terms of confidential information, kevin mccarthy, michael mccaul, cash patel former chief of staff of the dod will all wait and this morning along with the senate foreign affairs members ron johnson. we'll have all hands on deck this morning. >> i know you will, maria get the answers to some of those. for all of the years we spent debating about the importance of energy independence and its impact on national security, it seems boring for years almost. or, i iranian nuclear ambitions and what we can do to keep those from being fulfilled. your receipt north korea saber rattling.

now we see the price of not being energy independent for now see the pricing going toe to toe with a nuclear power. and it becomes all of the set a not boring in a short amount of time. maria, you said we will hear a response from the free world. know you're going to be asked that question today. what you think the answer is? what will be the response of the world to this threat? >> the first response from joe biden must be to open up the >> of the united states and allow the u.s. to once again become independent in terms of energy and not rely on individuals like vladimir putin and the saudi's as well. this is becoming a more dangerous. i think given the fact he has his nuclear forces on alert, must prompt a response from a free world. because this is just taken the escalation that much higher in terms of war throughout europe. the u.s., no doubt becomes engulfed so far the u.s. is pushing back on any troop

movement. but this certainly engulfs nato countries and we will see if article five has to be instituted. it is getting worse. >> you want to be asked that question throughout the morning we will be watching to see and hear the answer. thank you maria great to talk to ken this morning. >> will have breaking is in ten minutes, thank you so much. >> rachel over to you. >> thank you maria bartiromo. thousands of ukrainians are seeking a refuge in countries. next guest is leading the effort to help set up reception points in nearby poland and provide supplies to the front line. businesswoman and businessperson bethany joins us now. tell us what your organization is doing right now? >> right now we are setting up camps that have specific functions whether it is hygiene, or travel, or babies on the board of ukraine and poland speed we are setting up a warehouse to receive our

$10 million in aid due to mass distribute and organize that. and we are now working with ukraine military to bring back into the country. because supermarkets are depleting in everyone is talking about that refugees that are fleeing. people are not talking as much about the people who are still there, and that regard. as far as people fleeing they are building many camps with intense and the sensor but that's not a sustainable, viable option for europe. so our goal is to place people where they need to go. many people want to stay in poland that will require air b&b solution. we are buying train tickets to get people to other areas of europe or the family might be. we are partnering with a local travel partner to handle those logistics. there are many things going on at the same time. we have $10 million in aid that will be coming and we have raised $3 million so far in

three days. it will be money well spent we are lead, we are organized we do versus talk we are on top of what we can be on top of. correct something my dad worked in supply logistics of the military. this sounds like a military operation what you have going. how big is your staff? how are you managing all of this? >> our staff in miami and our warehouse is small it functions with mostly volunteers are core because the people year-round that we function with volunteers. we fly into places like poland, puerto rico, or the bahamas and we meet with the right people so the overhead is a minimal to none. meaning we are partnering with travel partners. we travel with the military former green beret special ops people. it sort of like being a general contractor. versus having to transport dozens of people hundreds of people. people who donate one 100% goes to the effort.
