and kids can be kids. order your american made products at weathertech.com. >> russian troops have taken control of the biggest nuclear power plant in europe after the middle of the night attacked the reckless assault set fire to the plant and briefly raised worldwide fear that a catastrophe of the most chilling turn in moscow's invasion of ukraine yet. this is "outnumbered" paid, everyone, i'm emily compagno. here with my cohost, kayleigh mcenany, fox business anchor, dagen mcdowell. also joining us today is gillian turner and brit hume.
9:01 am
now russian troops are in control of the nuclear power plant in southeastern ukraine, giving putin the power to pull the plug on a quarter of ukraine's power generation any time it wants ukrainian president zelenskyy likened the overnight nuclear terror to a moment in history, watch. >> to all people who know the word chernobyl, who know how much grief and fear of the disaster brought it was a global tragedy. russia wants to repeat this come up and is already repeating it, but six times more. >> ukrainian regulators say radiation levels appear normal and the fires have been extinguished. trey tingst is in kyiv with the latest. >> emily, good afternoon. fighting erupted overnight at a power plant in inner hold our ukraine bid this bid this is a
9:02 am
city in the southern part of the country. officials say no radioactive material was released the plant was hit with shells and fire. russians had seized the plant and i've left the international community on edge with concerns that clashed with her taking place so close to radioactive material. with the russians and control they will be able to weaponize or leverage the facility that supplies ukraine with 25% of its energy. volodymyr zelenskyy had this to say about the attack. >> russian people, i want to appeal to you. how is it possible to come after we fought together in 1986. must tell your authorities and say you want to live on earth without radioactive contamination. speak of the attack on a nuclear power plant comes as russian forces come closer to the ukrainian capital. the russian defense minister released new video showing tanks
9:03 am
and soldiers crossing into the kyiv region. there have been intense error campaigns just outside of kyiv with schools and residential areas had over the past 24 hours but the showings often indiscriminate. the images we see here only represent a portion of the country. there is intense shelling taking place in many of the southern cities, including the port city of mary opal, where ukrainian forces are, reportedly, surrounding. emily? >> russia, ukraine, agreed to a temporary local cease-fire for humanitarian aid and evacuation. the presidential advisors say that ukraine's needs have yet to be met. what are you hearing on the ground about any kind of cease-fire for humanitarian purposes? >> absolutely, we saw another meeting between the russians and ukrainians along the border with belarus. once again you can see just by the sides are wearing how they are preparing for the russians in suits and ties and ukrainians in battle fatigues.
9:04 am
out of that meeting one small piece of good news, it appears they are open to setting up a humanitarian core door. if this is implemented it will give civilians different locations across the country the ability to flee. part of the issue with many of the southern cities, you have civilians caught in the cross fire and they are running out of supply. they are caught amid russian shelling. if they don't get to safety, many could be killed or injured. >> trey, thank you so much for your insight and reporting as always. stay safe and we will talk to you soon. ringing in our panel now. brit hume, your top line analysis. >> i think the thing to worry about with the nuclear power plant is something that trey touched on come i don't think they will blow the place up but they are in a position now to turn the lights out on a big section of ukraine, which would be devastating. people would be without heat, electricity, and thinks they need to live. that is why this capture of the nuclear power plant is such a
9:05 am
big deal in my view will. >> and gillian, despite reports of resistance hence cook stalling, putin says everything is going according to schedule and the execution of such. your thoughts? >> everything is not going according to putin's plan. amid a whole host of miscalculations, mistakes, and blunders he is presided over over the first week of this work of the biggest mistake he's made is underestimating the will of the ukrainian people to take to the streets, take up arms, and defend their homeland. it's not surprising that he is saying that. he wanted to. he's an autocrat, isolated in his compound inside moscow. it's not to say though, emily, that there isn't much to be fearful appear there is a tremendous amount to be fearful of right now. ukrainian journalists are fleeing in the middle of the night in fear of their lives. we heard yesterday i broke
9:06 am
reporting from a european official who told me that they've seen intelligence documents that show russian intelligence services have drafted plans to conduct public executions and ukrainian cities as they take them over one by one. so even though putin is failing so far, they are still a very treacherous road ahead for ukrainians. >> as well as the russians, brit, just yesterday a bill was introduced and voted on the floor in the russian ascendance and unofficial reporting, or an unofficial reported a 15 years in prison. talk to us about the larger scale operations by putin both in ukraine and is well at home. >> one of the issues that you have to deal with here is while the world is watching this, as much as the world is seeing this war being fought basically in real-time with all of the hideous images coming out as you can see in the screen now a wonderful example of that. in russia at the different matter entirely. this effort to crack down on
9:07 am
what few independent sources of news there are in russia will make it even more difficult for the people of russia to know what is really going on. i saw a report today from a person in ukraine being shelled, speaking to her mother and russian who said she didn't believe it. it's always true, as abraham lincoln said, you can full some of the people all of the time. in russia the effort is to fool all people all the time. it would be an impediment to any hope we might have that the russian people would rise up. i think that's been a long shot, and remains a long shot indeed. >> that's right. and yesterday president zelenskyy in his continued appeal for global support maintained that the might of all the globe is bigger than putin's might. he kept emphasizing i need more help, begging for support. your thoughts on the reaction of the surrounding countries. we know nato has rejected the
9:08 am
no-fly zone. what easy occurring in the world of support? will that be enough? is there an inevitability to this one way or another? >> western nations and nato countries will continue to push supplies and weaponry into ukraine. they can certainly use air support, but that has been ruled out. i think sensibly so. one thing that general keane has mentioned, which i think is potentially very important, is the possibility of u.s. covert operations. we've been doing these operations and training for the many years now. many experts say we've gotten quite good at it. it can be done with deniability such that we can -- obviously there is risk, but that could make a difference. particularly in certain parts of ukraine. we won't know about that, and till later. if ever appear that's probably a good thing. it is something to be aware of. >> thousand right, dagen, there's certainly no shortage of support conceptually by the
9:09 am
american people. and, frankly, the majority of the group, globe. the question is how. >> to add what "outnumbered" was saying, the wall street editorial page wrote a piece on what the u.s. can do in terms of covert capabilities. we can unleash those with a presidential finding. and our covert operations could help special forces with expertise in sabotage, they can use unmanned drones to attack these vehicle convoys. they are ripe for the use of unmanned drones. vladimir putin is not going to stop. were talking about one quarter of the energy being cut off with the attack on this one nuclear facility. the goal is to wipe out the entire country. brit can weigh on on this, but so many people have come back to what happened in ross knee and
9:10 am
99, 2000. under the burgeoning leadership of tyrant vladimir putin. that city was reduced to rubble. the u.n. referred to it as the most destroyed city on earth. there were no rules of warfare, there was rape, there was torture of civilians, that's one of the greatest concerns by the rest of the world. maybe the focus of cameras within ukraine will prevent that from happening. but i was curious, because you are a historian, an amazing one. >> i wouldn't go that far. garcia was an example of what putin was willing to do. aleppo and syria are the same thing. i think he would've liked to carry this out in a quick strike, decisive three day campaign can we get control of kyiv, deposed a leader, maybe even kill him. install some quibbling to run the place for him. that has failed, at least it
9:11 am
continues to fail at least in the north. we are settled and for what seems like will be much more contracted, brutal, and bloodied conflict. you can't rule out that he would employ the same tactics he did in aleppo, reducing those places to rubble and ashes. the fact that this is going to be visible for much more of the world the way the other two places were not. it may suggest it to be a determining factor. >> that's right, kayleigh, i'm at the backdrop of putin's war crimes we have another example of the audacity for them to attack a power plant, which held the world captive in fear for the last 12 hours. >> i do worry about the unprecedented nature of this. brit, maybe you can speak to that. when you look back at nuclear power plants in times of war what ucr plants under construction that a been destroyed. iraq is an example, syria israel. but when you look at nuclear plants that are operational, but two examples we have our armenia
9:12 am
azerbaijan, that conflict also. and pakistan. but the fighting took place hundreds of miles from these operational plants. according to the, economists, it's unprecedented. but the unprecedented nature of this, i agree with you entirely. fought amir britt doesn't want to blow this up. he wants to take control. the unprecedented nature concerned you? >> of course it does. in many ways this war is unprecedented, at least in recent times. and one can -- the more frustrated he becomes, putin, the more dangerous he becomes beer to lisette something we have to worry about. here we are now, this is dana braid of the campaign that i think was helped by the russian authorities would last only a few days. here we are in day eight, it's kyiv distilling ukrainian hands. a couple places have fallen, but
9:13 am
what we cannot tell us how far this will go. my sense is that this could go on for a very long time. even if he gets apparent control of the place. there will be an insurgency that will be bloodied. then ukraine is going to be in a terrible place for a very long time. >> than that convoys still stalled, blessedly. >> that's right. it seems like we keep hearing that the next 36 hours will be crucial, but we keep hearing that. how many more trunks of 36 hours until what is inevitable? coming up were going to take you to the domestic front of those were president biden says the west stands firmly with ukraine, but president zelenskyy thinks the west could be doing a lot more. that is next. u borrow up to 100% of your home's value and take out up to $60,000 or more. give them a call. veteran homeowners, newday wants to help you

9:18 am
>> president biden is expected to speak from the white house at about 12:25 p.m. eastern time as putin's war in ukraine escalates. the president is walking a fine line with ukraine, making sure to avoid direct conflict with russian troops that could escalate global tensions. president zelenskyy says the west can and should be doing more. >> how many more people have to die? if you don't have the strength and courage to close this guy, then give me the planes. >> tough words. meanwhile i want to play a montage of some domestic lawmakers, a bipartisan called for a ban on oil coming out of russia. let's roll the tape. >> this is a time for americans to stand tall. the world depends on us. energy has been weaponized, and we have the ability to basically counter that weapon. we really do. >> it's been said already, putin
9:19 am
has weaponized energy. i don't believe that this country should be importing anything from russia. >> putin's major source of revenue is selling oil and gas. biden is giving them an exception. >> i also want to ban ed. >> it's where you get agreement from senator cried del mike ted cruz and nancy pelosi. do you think the white house will get on board? >> i suspect they may be forced to buy let's be clear about this, in political terms continuing to import oil from russia something that doesn't make sense in international politics. it's probably not great energy policy, but in the large scheme of things it doesn't really matter very much because oil is fungible. so it would only be a brief slow on the oil market if we cut off from russia. i don't know if we spot a knee from russia this week.
9:20 am
if russia sends oil somewhere else tomorrow right back where we started. in the long term is will we ramp up our domestic energy, which is not running anywhere near full capacity come in such a way that we cannot only meet our energy needs, help our economy, great jobs. beyond that strategically it would allow us to export liquefied natural gas to these countries in western europe. germany especially, which are dependent on gas from russia. that's a very -- it was foolish of germany to let themselves get into the situation. but they've done it now, and that is where we are. it's also true that western europe could ramp up its energy production as well. but that i think is a big step that needs to be done. the problem for this president is that he is part of a party which is still deeply involved in green energy dreams and is opposed to any further use of fossil fuels of any kind.
9:21 am
unfortunately is also opposed to the expansion of our nuclear capability, which would have a real effect. i know france is doing it, it would be good if other countries in western europe they did as well. >> wise advice. let's roll the tape. i would get hurt thoughts on the other side. pete buttigieg asked about energy production and iranian oil. >> could the president consider finishing this keystone pipeline, working something out with iran? >> look, the president had said that all options are on the table. >> that's not an option i think should be on the table, gillian. >> well it is, and as all of this unfolds in ukraine, over in vietnam there are intense nuclear negotiations underway between the united states and
9:22 am
iran. russia has a seat at the table beside the united states. they are announcing that pretty soon they're going to have a deal. iran's chief negotiator said 24 hours ago that he was expecting them to wrap up in 24-48 hours. i think there is an expectation that iran is going to start sending energy our way. that's not at all a guaranteed thing. i will also point out that jackie asked the white house yesterday, she said to jen psaki, as long as we are importing oil from russia are we not, in a sense, financing this war? psaki said we only import about 10% of our resources from russia. >> jackie made a compelling point underscored here this week buys senator tom cotton. take a look at this, dagen, $110 per barrel of the united states is spending $124 million on the war machine today. it's time for biden to sanction russian oil. >> the energy companies here in the united states, and buyers of
9:23 am
oil around the globe, are filling this void left by biden incorporated. they have failed in both deed and word on this. they've tried to spare energy transactions and energy delivery of the sanctions, but refiners in the united states and buyers of oil around the globe are not standing by and not stepping up to buy russian crude and refined product. from the grade oil analyst, anthony lip bow, it appears the usa refiners are not entering into any new purchases of russian oil. part of what is going on is there's no buyers, they don't want to do business. it's not here in the united states, this is around the globe. they don't want to do business with russia. they don't trust russia. the credit from banks, financing from banks is not there to make russian purchases. there are no tankers available. there are no -- the shimbun
9:24 am
companies are not willing to send ships and tankers into russian ports to get oil. at least one-third of oil coming out of russia is not moving. so the exports out of putin's russia are drying up. it's one of the reasons you're seeing the spike in oil. the markets are anticipating what is going on. it's why gasoline prices in california are now north of $5 on average. the united states average price is going to go to a new record high in a matter of days. expectations is that it's going ahead $4.25 per gallon, so you need to -- but why won't putin and company stand up and speak up for these energy companies? because they are the bad guys. they have been vilified by this administration. god forbid that -- by the way energy production is going to skyrocket in the coming months in places like the crimea basin in texas by exxon and the like.
9:25 am
so the private sector is filling the void were biden has failed the american people. speaking of the american people, saying this is an economic war. we need to -- you're going to face these high prices because we want to stand with ukraine and were knocking him by russian oil. >> are getting a fox news alert, we are learning that vice president harris will be visiting poland on monday. also we are getting new video and from ukraine showing russian military vehicles that were seen at key location near the nuclear power plant that was recently seized. look at that, emily. it is jarring to see this imagery near an operational nuclear power plant. your thoughts? >> i just think about how the city in ukraine where we have reports that russia has encircled that, where they are running out of food and water. and in some cases have zero electricity. i look at that and see an ominous indicator of what is yet
9:26 am
to come, potentially, for all of ukraine. the power shut off, the power now that putin has over the energy as it flows to ukraine has basically just skyrocketed. they will use it for nefarious purposes. they will use it to squeeze the ukrainian people. we've been having an ongoing discussion about the refugees out of ukraine. but also the people remaining in ukraine will be subject to starvation, lack of water, lack of food, lack of warmth. it this is incredibly disturbing. >> it is. brit, you made the point at the top of the show that one fifth of the country's power comes from this plant. you think it's putin's goal to controlled his nuclear power in its entirety and therefore has immense leverage? >> i think that would be one thing he's going to try to do. no doubt this current situation reflects that. he's going to do whatever he can. of course he will want -- if you
9:27 am
can't quickly defeat the resistance in ukraine he will try to starve it into submission. encircling cities, cutting off supply lines, and cutting off power. certainly that would be something you would be aspiring to do whether he's able to do it depending on the location of these plans and what forces are there or not, is something we really cannot tell from this vantage point. >> in the meantime president zelenskyy is trying to stop putin from creating another nuclear nightmare as russian forces seize ukraine's biggest power plant. as well as a convoy of russian tanks and troops inched closer to the capital. we have harrowing footage of a man in kharkiv.
9:28 am
>> that is so difficult to watch. mike tobin has more from live tv ukraine. my? >> millie, i want to start you off from the nuclear plant, it's in the town called and no dark. it's not one of the nuclear reactors committed the iea says none of the safety systems were impacted. however, given how scary this situation is its prompting president volodymyr zelensky to press for more help from the west.
9:29 am
>> as far as this ominous convoy, were still watching it and still no major development. the information is that they have been flummoxed by bad equipment, flat tires, and mata. the city of mary opal, that's to the southeast of the country, that particular town has been under withering artillery fire for days now. you talk about the people of that town did not have heat, water, electricity. since the billions structures have been hit. if you look at a map, it is to the southeast of the country. key strategic point because it has assets to the water. there's a bridge over the river there that connects it to the crimean peninsula. key strategic point very no
9:30 am
independent confirmation that the russians have control over that town. but the mayor says the russians are in control. odessa off to the west of the country. warships are headed there. we anticipate a big battle but thus far a big battle has not materialized yet. >> thank goodness for that. mike tobin thank you for your excellent reporting. stay safe and will talk to you soon. meanwhile washington's newest worry, "the new york times" report president biden's top aides, who are surprised by the speed at which sanctions have pummeled russia have double down and lash out. and perhaps expand the war. gillian, coming to you first for this with your analysis. >> first off the gravest danger in cornering putin's he has become unreliable and irrational according to people who've known him for decades and he has
9:31 am
access to nuclear weapons. when we talk about putin being in a rational actor, what i mean by that anyway is that according to those who know him best he's no longer behaving in a rational manner in his own best interest. this is been something we can count on, right? it was relatively easy to calculate out putin's interest to worry my go on. people are now questioning his mental health and saying we cannot do that anymore. that's the top line risk when it comes to dealing with him right now. the other, emily, is that while it's very clear to us sitting here that the entire world is turning against him, he is very likely unaware of that. he's very isolated, particularly during covid. he's surrounded by a small handful of people who think like he doesn't believes the same things that he does. the hand feed him information that they think he wants. the odds of putin exposed to any
9:32 am
degree of reality right now is very slim. >> brit, as putin expands his reaction, do you anticipate that the global response globe will respond accordingly? what body or state do you think will rise to the occasion? how do you see that playing out? >> nato is not going to do more than help to get supplies and arms into ukraine. we might be able, with some covert operations, to make a difference. but i don't think the world is going to come to the rescue of ukraine and the way that the ukrainian president, understandably wants. he wants airplanes, he wants a no-fly zone. and better than all about was what he is likes would be an infusion of troops in the west. that simply is not going to happen. the world now will watch this unfolding tragedy in ukraine
9:33 am
with ever greater horror, i imagine. russia comes in and you know there are a lot of people in russia that i like to think of their country as a civilized nation. he suppresses as much as the information the might reach his people to tell them what's really happening as he can. but i doubt he can suppress it forever entirely. you cannot fool all of the people all of the time. so that world reaction and it will reach the people. we will see what that does. >> ride, kayleigh come i can only speak for myself but it seems like so many of us speak helpless. geopolitically and conceptually there's a global feeling of helplessness as we watch it play out again this potential and not potential inevitability of complete invasion. >> there is. you know brit mentioned in the article about a propaganda offered. it's really eye-opening when you read it, but a daughter, who's
9:34 am
mom is totally misled by the propaganda. the daughter says my parents understand that some military action is happening here, but they say the russians came to liberate you. they won't touch you, they're only targeting military bases. it's tough to be heavily under the hand of propaganda to believe that in these days. he mentioned that the other day, russian troops arriving on the scene and they think they are going to be liberators when they arrive. they are heavily in battle. they don't even recognize what is going on. it just makes you raise the question how misled can the russian people be? you have these numbers of troops rising the loss on the battlefield. at some point they're going to have an awakening. whatever is already starting. >> because of the sanctions though, the russian people were having trouble getting money out of the bank come out of an atm. russians have experienced great
9:35 am
freedom. much more so than other nations, particularly iran. but even much greater freedom than people in china. and so when you have american companies and western companies all of a sudden disappear, you can't move freely in and out of russia any longer, there might be propaganda on the tv, but you will know that something is afoot when your quality of life suffers dramatically, and it already is based on just anecdotes that i've heard coming out of russia from individuals. and the russian people began to wake up and as dan hoffman, the former cia station chief, said earlier in the news channel to sell ads when the russian military and soldiers stopped taking orders from putin. they will be getting information from their family members back in mother russia about the economic and financial calamity they are experiencing every day. all right, more "outnumbered" in just a moment. stay with us.

>> fox news alert. we are now learning an estimated 100 people could be trapped underneath the rubble of homes in the city outside of kyiv. this according to a sky news report citing comments from ukraine state emergency service. a residential building was struck in the town and rescuers who attempted to visit the scene were met with gunfire, according to the report. in the meantime over a million people have fled the country. some ukrainians are going back to fight. one woman telling fox & friends why her husband tried to go back. >> i was crying all the time while we were driving. i was begging him to do something. cross the border, maybe bribe the border agents. but he was like no, i want to go back. he thinks that he has to be there and he has to fight for our country and for the whole western world.
9:41 am
>> so, brit, while 2% of ukraine's population are refugees and have fled, we don't have confirmed reports about how many, but a group has been coming back from many surrounding countries. as one side, i only have one country and one home. i'm going back to fight for it. >> what's interesting about that is that it reflects a big piece of vladimir putin's miscalculation. he didn't -- i think he believed that the ukrainians would be happy to be back under the thumb of mother russia, that ukraine was essentially a part of russia, and the country of ukraine with affection. it turns out that these people, to a degree he never imagined, are extraordinary patriotic. they love their country. they loved the freedom they've been afforded by the end of the russian empire. so this is all something that he didn't get. i'm not sure how many of us in
9:42 am
the west understand how strong the ukrainians would stand. it's really quite remarkable. >> it is. gillian, some argue that part of putin's delusion about this is because of the fact he's had very little exposure to the west end freedom. he doesn't understand that a variable, how empowering and emboldening that is, gillian. >> it's also, emily, why be understood that he doesn't have a mobile phone. he doesn't use the internet. so when we talk about degrees of isolation there is a person that's a little covid phobic and maybe hasn't seen people that much for the last two years, then you have the reality of a 60-year-old man who is not online, may have no idea there is a refugee crisis unfolding right now. we've seen tens of thousands flee. they are in poland and moldova. inside ukraine, where his own forces are fighting, there are tens of thousands of people
9:43 am
huddled in train stations. that type of information has not penetrated putin's inner wall. he very likely has no idea. a quick thing, emily, you spoke poignantly about feeling helpless. i want to flag to our viewers who are concerned i want to help there are some ways you can get involved through great organizations like doctors without borders, who is operating in ukraine and russia right now. the u.n. human rights commission has a u.s. branch, you can work through them. doctors without borders -- i don't know if i said the international red cross. also kyiv independent, the outlet there come as helping taking information. >> thank you so much for that, gillian. as we watched these heartbreaking images and video feed of people fleeing ukraine take a look at this new picture. fox news has just received of a ukrainian soldier carrying a baby near a bombed out bridge. no baby needs to grow up in a
