needs help. >> ainsley: benjamin hall is live in kyiv with the latest. what is happening? >> good morning. just about a minute ago we have seen a u.n.c.ken air defense missile fire off from no more than 500 meters from where we are in the moment. air raid sirens this morning. clearly you can hear the sound of jets overhead. clearly the ukrainians are firing at something up in the sky at the moment somewhere above us. as we have been saying for the past few days still the city on edge they are waiting for that i know evident tillable invasion and an assault on this city. it's the first time that we have seen and i think we hear another one coming. you can hear the shelling in the background getting louder and closer. i'm not sure if you can pick it up on the microphone. certainly there some action. just in the last few minutes starting to take place here in kyiv. we will keep you updated on. that was yes, in the meantime across this country there has

been some rather quiet in the capital city of kyiv the rest of the country significant attempts to get feel safety because putin and his forces continue to assault various cities. the humanitarian corridors you speak about, they have failed time and time again over the last few days. one was successful yesterday in the city of sumy. today they are trying again. meant to be a seas fire in a ce. the worse place, the ones most concerned about mariupol that port city, 200,000 people remain stuck in there. remain underground without food, water, heating, medicine, in a dire situation and people there are desperately trying to get them out. red cross saying those passages in and out ohave been mined. president zelenskyy ever-present speaking to world leaders and british parliaments and evoking yesterday both the spirit of the winston churchill and the spirit of world war ii. listen.

>> we will fight until the end at sea, in the air, we will continue fighting for our land, whatever the cost. we will fight in the forest, in the field, on the shores, in the streets. >> meanwhile, curious move the pentagon appearing to put brakes on the polish move to send russian migs onto this country 29 of them. poland agreed to send them to ukraine but didn't want to be the country that actually handed them over. they said we are going to allow the u.s. to do what they want with these jets and we will send them to ramstein air base in germany. the u.s. and the pentagon immediately shutting that down and saying very clearly admiral kirby the pentagon spokesman said we don't want any hand in sending them straight to the ukrainians. like a hot potato. everyone wants these jets to get to the ukrainians but no one wants to be the one to give it to them.

there is a high level meeting between the foreign ministers of ukraine and russia lavrov. in turkey tomorrow. and also some significant moves if you listen closely on the negotiating positions. the ukrainians now saying that they would not insist on nato membership. and saying all they wanted was ukrainian neutrality as ukraine took knowledge the independence of drop bass, donettes and crimea. we are seeing shifts on both sides certainly watering down of their demands. no major break throughs are expected tomorrow. nevertheless, there is still that hope of some negotiated settlement. the question is can they meet in the middle. again, right now, here in kyiv, there is certainly you can hear planes in the sky out of nowhere. defense system coming out shooting into the sky they clearly are very on edge nervous as they have heard today might be the day they finally make that assault on the capital

kyiv. >> brian: i did not know kyiv was protected by an air defense missile system has that been in effect for the last 1 days and used a lot. >> i'm not saying this is a patriot style system or an f-300 but they do have air defenses. >> steve: anti-aircraft benjamin we have seven more hours left in the cease-fire although we can hear the bombs dropping, the shelling and whatnot. it's interesting, even though they have had had cease-fires the last four days each time russia has fired at the people who have are trying to evacuate. what's interesting about today is there are six different cease-fire routes,none of them lead out of ukraine. obviously they are leading people out of cities and perhaps that's why so many people feel

like okay today is the day they bomb downtown recommendation important thing is to get people out of the city. capture forces moving through the countryside is a lot easier for him. if he can control the cities, taking the coastal areas, that goes a long way for him controlling the country. so, that's what he has done. remember, we keep saying about his inability to get inside the city. because of the ukrainian defenses and how successful they have been at holding them back. instead we have seen vladimir putin just increase his long range artillery bombardment and airstrikes. that's wife the indiscriminate nature of this campaign has risen. getting people out of the city is so essential. we have to see whether or not any of these corridors hold. >> ainsley: our intel is saying russian could say encircle the area where you are kyiv the next 24 to 27 hours. in a town close to you irpin where the mom and two kids have been killed and her male

acquaintance. the paratrooper have saying russia has staged a huge column 250 men, several tanks they are hoping to advance toward kyiv. how far is that town irpin where you are. >> 50 miles to the northwest of where we are now. and for the last few days we have been able to hear the shelling of that town and speak to people who come out of that constantly. they are flattening that town. the mayor said yesterday he would not leave. he would stay and fight there is a real battle been going on there it is one of the entry points into this city. it's significantly critical town to hold. the ukrainians have been pushed out. last we heard, they were pushing back in to try retake it yes, they are trying to encircle kyiv. there is still that southern corridor out. some people suggesting russia doesn't have the forces yet massed here to cut the whole city off. if they was to continue to move through here and seeing movement

northeast of the city coming down toward the city then perhaps they would have enough. so it's been -- it's very curious they haven't done this sooner. william burns the cia director the original plan for the russians was to capture kyiv in two days claiming that hasn't worked and that's why we are seeing reevaluate and try different tactics. >> brian: i hear kharkiv does not have water and power and mariupol the same thing. what do you guys have? >> for the moment, kyiv is functioning. we have all of those things. food is running very low here. personally we have stocked up. we are prepared. the shops in many cases are empty. people are hung kerring down. people are prepared for that power is still on, water is still on. in a fortunate position to have a generator when things do happen we rely on. that was for now, the city of kyiv has been bracing as i say. people have been waiting for the inevitable it just hasn't come yet. when it does we expect heavy

bombardment rather than ground troops come in. if they do come in we have seen the defenses and how the city is ready that will be intense urban battle and all the ukrainians will be like it will be like stalin grad. >> steve: we have read there is hand-to-hand combat going on around you. >> certainly where. the defenses are it people are getting really close. the lines shift quite quickly. russia has adapted its tactics and no longer moves in big convoys they were so easy to take out with javelin missiles. we are seeing smaller moving forward. it reconnaissance unit, any major force reconnaissance unit moves ahead as 5ur78d brigade. everybody has been amazed how russia didn't have that in place.

don't know why that was. many people said although russia's army was massive in scale it was mainly defensive until recently. they haven't had a lot of these offensive ground wars to rely on. they are learning as they go along. certainly you would have thought they would have been more prepared for that. >> steve: fewer scouts every person in kyiv has a molotov cocktail in their basement. >> ainsley: they are ready. >> steve: be safe. we know they are close. be careful. >> ainsley: this morning i'm scrolling through different heart breaking pictures there was one image of these bunkers or these bomb shelters under neath the ground. did you all see this with the children and they are dirty and looks like one mattress with lots of children down there. filth, living in filth. we are reading headlines that a child was 6 years old in mariupol and died of thirst because she didn't have any water. 6 years old. the next picture you see are humanitarian aid workers that were delivering case of water. i thought if only they could have found that little girl. an elderly couple, a video

online of an elderly couple driving down the street blown up. someone in an apartment building a few stories suspect taking video of it and can you hear their reaction. look at these images. it looks like a parent with a stroller, the pink stroller, people trying to get on these trains so they can get out. >> the question is how do you put pressure on russia to stop the carnage, their inept forces, with the morale is in the toilet. not told enemy case what is they were actually doing in the mission, especially in the north and northeast. in the south they tend to be more experienced with more of a focus. but we see when they get frustrated they just haphazardly start killing people and shelling cities. how do you put pressure on moscow, on vladimir putin to stop this cancer thank and realize the sacrifice is too great? you do it with sanctions. so one sanction would be the oligarchs. so we got about two dozen. there is hundreds. sanction their banks. did about 7. when it comes to the swift system they got about 300 we

should be looking into. when it comes it oil and gas, even though we only give between 3 and 7% of our gas and oil from russia. we're their number one customer. with pressure from the house and pressure from the senate and from their own party the president was supposed to be 10:4 a 5 at 11:15 made it official we are no longer going to be accepting oiling from russia. listen. >> i'm announcing the united states is targeting the main averett russia's economy. we are banning all imports of russian oil and gas and energy. this is a moment that has strong bipartisan support. the congress and i believe in the country. americans have rallied support -- have rallied to support their ukrainian people and made it clear we will not be part of subsidizing putin's wash. >> steve: that's what so many people have been calling for we were subsidizing putin's war by buying the gas. when we announced the sanctions we were sanctioning almost

everything. we heard it wasn't going to happen but did because democrats in the congress who he was referring to were actually pushing joe biden to do that. because the republican had been pushing and the democrats didn't want to be seen as soft on putin. they knew that the republicans would still attack the democrats, talking about why don't you open up these lands in the united states and why don't you just get rid of a lot of regulations? they knew that would happen because this is an election year. when the president looked at his poll numbers and they were ticking up, what did he do he? says okay. we're all together on this. today when did you go and pay for gas, you might want to take a picture of it although it won't last long. because it's historic. americans have never paid this much for a gallon of gas ever. >> ainsley: you know, i remember when president trump was on

stage, he said today gas prices, what, $2 a gallon he? said eventually they could get up to 5, 6, $7 a gallon. he was right. today the average price is 4.25. yesterday it was 4.17. it's going up so quickly a year ago look at that $2.80. >> steve: that's the average. >> brian: pure politics? now joe biden has a fall guy it's vladimir putin. don't blame me it's vladimir putin. listen. >> it's going to go up. can't do much right now. russia is responsible. >> brian: he knows that's not the truth. then he says when they started welling up troops on the border the price of gas and oil. >> ainsley: they have been going up a year. russia has been fighting ukraine two weeks. >> brian: he signed the first day executive orders to stop drilling on federal atlanta.

made it gobble get new leases and to drill. he makes it through regulations and through bureaucracy. it destroyed this oil and gas industry. i bring you back what janet yellen said. goes to the g 7 came out and basically told the world you should start divesting and not investing in anything that's oil and gas and fossil fuel related or else there is going to be punitive damages. even though shell oil and other refineries and various aspects of the petroleum industry might be profitable for your small mutual fund or your big investment, she is telling you don't do it because janet yellen in all her wisdom wants to save the planet. >> ainsley: first part of it to stop buying gas from russia. great. excellent. that's what everyone was calling for. then they were saying drill here at home. let's become independent again. >> steve: those are the republicans. >> ainsley: that's not going to happen because of all these environmentalists. now he is talking about maybe buying from venezuela. maybe buying from iran. possibly saudi arabia.

but yesterday he tries to get on the phone with those leaders in saudi arabia and the uae and they will not take his calls. >> brian: do you know why? >> ainsley: we want you to support the civil war in yemenened the second reason in 2020 when he was running and criticizing them about the death of the journalist khashoggi. they are furious with him about that they have a big grift. >> brian: third reason we are about to go into the iranian deal. they're the arch enemy in the middle east. because we isolated iran we got the abraham acompleted and started putting isolated pressure on them they started of ripping apart from within. but, instead, you are fortifying them. you humiliated your own country by sitting in ancillary room and subjecting it to russia and now you are letting iran go back on the market. and you talk about a civil war no. one loves the way the saudis were fighting the civil war in yemen. when you don't support the saudis, you are supporting the

houthis who are supported by iran. so there were two bad actors and you took iran's side again. steve what the white house was doing was they were trying to take the easy way out. you know, with their green energy agenda, they don't want to open up any more oil patches anywhere across the united states. they want for the most part us to get on green energy and become less reliant. >> ainsley: but they are with us buying it from dictators in other countries? >> brian: yes. >> steve: to make that happening, what are they doing? saudi arabia, i'm sure it's just a coincidence they let the 20th hijacker go from dewitt mow a couple of days ago. when it comes to venezuela yesterday they released a couple of americans who had been held for years and they are trying to engender better relations. here is the thing, the united states of america could fix it today, the governor of alaska was on yesterday and what he said was right now we are pumping half a million barrels

of oil a day from alaska to the mainland. he said we used to do 2 million barrels a day so we could get 1.5 million barrels a day which would make up for the lost russian oil and then some. but you have got to get rid of the d.c. red tape. you got to get rid of the regulation. and joe biden at this point does not want to do it. the big question is, you know, we are not far from $5 gas. when it's $5 a gallon, what are penal going to say? what are his polls going to look like? what are they going to look like when they're $6 a gallon. one thing to stand with the ukrainian people i get that and we all do. but eventually it's going to wear on for weeks or months. >> ainsley: analysts say it will 5b dollars by the end of the month. >> brian: democrats in texas are urging an increase in domestic energy production. democrats in texas are writing a letter to deliver today to vladimir putin, thomas freidman a liberal but very k-mart columnist came out and said we have to be honest about energy.

the world needs carbon based fuels for decades. better off extracting in north america including on u.s. federal land. >> ainsley: to putin. >> brian: no to us. biden. mr. green energy and renewables we are innage emergency situation drill here at home. the texas democrats are saying the same thing. so hopely sober mind. contrast joe biden's lack of leadership with zelenskyy's leadership. sitting there in camouflage outfits addressing major capitals only asking for help to fight. the former first lady, the former first lady of that country ms. poroshenko said this to the immediate i'm sorry the current one was impossible to believe. our country was peaceful. our cities, towns and villages were it full of life, who called this a special operation. the u.n. is change language. it is in fact the mass murder of ukrainian civilians our women and children now live in bomb

shelters and basements there are consequences of wars for some. for ukrainians horrific reality i appeal to you, media, to keep showing what is happening here and keep showing the truth in the information will war waged by the russian federation. every piece crucial. all the energy corporations all to her and people like her and thes suffering in basements don't say it's 6,000 miles away it's not your problem. russia is your problem and our allies' problem, nato's problem. makes it our problem which makes it so embarrassing and unacceptable this migs issue. these people want planes. patriot missiles, instead you told everyone this was going to happen. i guess you really didn't believe what you were telling us because you never gave them what they needed to defend themselves. >> ainsley: the problem is that these countries provide these aircraft for ukraine. then it drags nato. in these countries are trying to

prevent that. that's why we are not getting involved. that's sending our planes or these migs over to ukraine. >> yesterday what poland said was okay. we are going to give the 28 migs or whatever they have government to the u.s. >> steve: we are going to park them in germany and let the ownership long to the united states. then that looks like nato. that's the problem. what they need to do is figure out an easier way to do it. maybe the planes go straight from poland. they will figure it out in the next couple of days. >> brian: i don't think they will figure out. should have just done it courage of a family walking out of kyiv to poland. getting out of -- in the middle of 5-degree weather and finding the way to get out of the basement, grabbing a child's hand and running to safety and being gunned counsel. that takes courage couldn't show a little bit of courage and take some 1980s planes and give it to ukrainians to defend themselves? because every one of those kids is vulnerable because we won't give them air cover to fight for

themselves. they have got the pilots. they just need some planes. my goodness. >> steve: poland surprised the united states did not give the united states a heads up on what they were suggesting and to some analysts appearing as if poland, as you look at these heart breaking images, poland is trying to force the united states and nato nations as well to back ukraine more. amid the concerns that, you know is an escalation by putin the united states is going to defend the nato countries. right now they have got to figure out a better way. that could be why in one hour from now, kamala harris will be flying to poland. >> brian: what a relief. >> ainsley: look at this lady crying. emotional. you can help, too. americans are asking how can we help? what are the best organizations to give if we can't go over there and help with aid on the border? the red cross is a fabulous organization. they are funding -- they are using the funds to buy food and

hygiene, blankets, medicine, trauma kits, baby products. and they are also helping to evacuate some of the people and we are proud, so proud of rupert murdoch and the fox family, fox corporation has decided to donate $1 million to the red cross to help with aid there in ukraine. >> steve: the red cross is here in this country what is going on over there is the international committee of red cross says that people are calling their hotline day and night. hey, we need some food. we need a place to go. so far they have distributed 90,000 food and hygiene packets to families on the move. they have provided first aid training to 12,000 people in metro stations and bomb shelters which is really important. because if somebody winds up in a met throw station like that right there, or a warehouse, that if somebody is bleeding. one of those people knows how to help them. also, they have delivered more than 32 tons of food, blankets, medicine and household items to people who are desperately in

need of all of that stuff. and running for their lives. >> ainsley: look at the bottom of the screen right there. grab your computer. grab your iphone. go to red cross.org with a forward slash and then type in fox forward. >> brian: one of the most common requests was how do i help? i don't want to put my money into a sink hole. i want to put money that's going to help people right await a minute this your answer. we did the research. so, please, for consolidated put it through make sure it gets there. 25 minutes after the hour carley shimkus. >> carley: red cross incredible organization also project dynamo. we had them on "fox & friends first." they just rescued three premie babies. >> ainsley: they were american babies are a. >> carley: surrogate two of them about r. twins american family. other premie is going to be a british baby. and just imagine i mean if you are a premie and even the best

of situations that's a really scary situation. you are in a war zone and getting transported to poland. they did it successfully. >> ainsley: imagine if you try forever to get a chance you get a surrogate over in ukraine and war breaks out and these american babies were there. >> carley: a lot of people were willing to help red cross project dynamo. start with a fox news alert. a missouri police officer was killed and two other officers were seriously injured during a shootout. police say the suspect was also killed after opening fire on officers. 10 police officers have now been killed in shootings this year. a 43% increase from this time last year. the people's convoy promising to keep driving around the capital beltway until they are heard. truckers sharing their demands with republican senators ted cruz and ron johnson yesterday. >> there is nothing thieve

>> brian: vice president kamala harris is setting off to poland this morning in a trip this biden administration says will figure out next steps against russia. hopefully this plane issue. mark meredith is live at the pentagon where officials say they are ready to unequivocally support ukraine except when it comes to fighter jets, right?

>> it does seem like the pentagon is ready to pour cold water on the idea transfer soviet era jets poland out migs 29s all be it the military. they were surprised by poland's announcement it was wig to send jets to ukraine. poland was asking the u.s. to backfill its own air force with other jets. we did get a statement from the pentagon late yesterday in which said quote the prospect of fighter jets at the disposal the u.s. departing from a u.s. nato base in germany to fly into airspace contested with russia over ukraine raises serious concerns for the entire nato alliance. it is simply not clear to us that there is a substantive rationale for it. it appears earlier today president zelenskyy of ukraine weighed in on all of this saying he believes this still can be worked out but the logistics need to work out sooner rather than later. while the jets on the u.s. side appear to be off the table. we did learn yesterday that the u.s. is going to be sending two of those surface-to-air missile

batteries into poland. these are defensive weapons the u.s. says are crucial to helping show that the u.s. is ready to support nato countries. also mentioned an hour from now vice president kamala harris is going to be hitting the road going out to warsaw, poland, making a few other stops. expected to reaffirm u.s. commitment to nato. offer support to ukraine people. specifically the humanitarian assistance and warn russia once again invasion will have serious consequences. consequences being felt here at home. last night president biden was asked about the high gas price and he says russia is responsible for those price increases. brian? >> brian: all right. mark, a lot going on there but just not enough. let's bring in keith kellogg fox news contributor. former national security adviser for vice president pence and key adviser to president trump. first off, general, your response to the fact that when in trouble we give poland's missile defense? we never gave ukraine missile defense and we can't find a way to get the 1980s migs into

ukrainian hands. >> yeah, brian, thanks for having me. this makes sense for them to get the fighters. mig 29 fourth generation fighter. the pols have 29 of them. make sense to me give them somehow. be creative how you give it to them. off united states the need for a no-fly zone from nato or from the u.n. or anybody else. can you actually team these aircraft up. even though it would be a little bit shall we say creative. team them up with awax put themmen in the nato frequency because they are going to be equipped with nato radios as well because nato ally and be able to cover the at least the western part of ukraine. so i don't know why we are doing this it almost seems like we are rubbing our hands in a negative manner, brian, every time they come up with something we come up with a reason not to do something. we should be coming up with ways to do something. that's when i grab my advisers if i was advising president biden and you put them up in the

executive office building. you feed them cold pizza and warm beer. you keep coming up with solutions time after time to solve this problem. >> brian: obviously the pols says i want you to send these mig fighter jets into poland and the u.s. says well it looks like we are giving it to them. are we worried that russians they can't handle the. can would he be gorld a change? let's take a look if we can general. i know you actually do this and hope people listen to you because you also have four or five great ideas that we are not doing. take a look at the big map if we can we see where most of the fighting is taking place. obviously the red areas is russia-occupied. the arrows is where russia is moving. if i can it looks like where we just had benjamin hall looks like think are trying encircle kia but they are always trying to encircle kyiv. what's next for them. >> the center of gravity the

they have to neutralize and take kyiv. decapitate the government. a term used to basically replace the government. because zelenskyy is becoming churchillian. is he standing up to them and putin and being very dramatic and forceful in his language. they have got cut him out they got to somehow take the capital city. that should be their main e and it's not. they have broke up a lot of their main efforts to the south, to the east and to the north. until they take kyiv they have got a be pro. here is their big problem. it's a city of almost 3 million. it's 2,000-year-old city. and once they go in there, it will eat them up. and what i mean by this is, armies don't like to go into cities, the ability to use forces in cities is tough it takes a lot more force and be killing a lot of civilians and that i believe, will change the dynamic. right now they have got a problem. if they're not focusing on kyiv, the rest doesn't matter. they have got to get to the capital city and if they don't do it then they will lose. >> brian: report is they don't want to get out of their trucks.

we november ukraineens can fight you told me this ratio is 5 to 1. you only need one of every five invading force to protect them. ukrainians are motivated. i'm shocked we are not talking about odesa. we told us this was going to be happening either weekend. i'm shocked they are not moving to try to take a city besides kherson? what do you think is happening? why did they bypass for the most part kharkiv? why are they focusing there? why didn't they move further in the south where they more experienced forces are? >> yeah, look, here -- i'm going to put it in simple terms. if this was a fight and you want to score card, the russians are losing this fight. and they are now seeing that they have got a real problem because odesa is the third largest city. it's a sea port city. again, if they go into the cities they have a big problem. and diluting combat power what should be their main effort which is kyiv. they are now trying to figure out how do we do this? in fact, we are actually losing. every dave that goes by and without getting day 15, they are

>> steve: well, alaska's governor is looking at the high price of gas and is begging the white house to let them continue to drill and pump as president biden bans all russian oil imports and gas prices hits a record high. and there is more trouble ahead as experts warn the global supply chain crisis will worsen with cargo ships stranded and trapped due to russia's

invasion, shear reaction host of varney and company fox business stuart varney. stuart, the governor of alaska said yesterday right now from alaska we are pumping half a million barrels a day. we used to pump 2 million that would make up all of the oil we are missing from russia. but there is red tape from washington and joe biden slapped a bunch of regulations that makes it impossible. he says let our people pump. >> precisely this energy crisis is getting worse by the day. you have been reporting this morning that as people wake up, walk outside, drive outside they are seeing world high gas price. $4.25 a national argue right now. for diesel it's 4.88. this means that workers are getting worse off marines inflation is here to stay and continue to erode our economy. joe biden, the president, is he scrambling all over the world try to find more oil. he dual anything rather than drill here. he will take it off the

iranians. he will take it off the venezuelans. he wants to take it off the saudis but the saudis wouldn't even take his phone call. such is the standing of america in the world today. president biden's green policies are at the heart of this energy crisis. >> steve: absolutely. it's not just oil and diesel but it's also heating oil. i got an email from somebody yesterday saying hey the people in the northeast are getting clobbered because i think it's gone up 40% or something like that since joe biden took office. keep in mind i'm sure his environmentalists left is going okay, this is great. they are it wouldn't surprise the biden administration gas very expensive so people would drive less. and then they would buy a tesla and put a solar panel made in china on their roof. >> that's not going to work. voters know what's going on and they know who is to blame for this. putin's war to some degree but green energy policies are the

heart of this problem. not going away. >> that's why you have got a fox nation special. tell us about energy shock. the coming energy crisis. >> yes we are in a crisis already. our special says it's going to get worse. return to the point green energy policies that are at the heart of this problem. and that is biden's energy policy making it worse as we go forward. >> steve: here's a glimpse of stuart's special. >> the energy is the thing that literally powers everything else. >> funds the military. >> what we do is ukraine is going to have implications on us. >> ukrainians are fighting a desperate battle. >> the power is out. the water is out. >> and the world is watching. >> it can get very ugly quickly. >> this is absolutely terrifying situation to be in steve it's terrifying. that's why you are doing the special available now on fox

>> steve: war in europe wages for two straight weeks. >> we have seen ukrainian air defense missile fire off. >> ukrainians we are here for you. [siren] >> mr. president. >> brian: ukrainian president zelenskyy receiving standing ovation. >> we will continue fighting. our land whatever the cost. >> united states is now saying poland's offer to send fighter jets is, quote. not tenable. >> officials adding they fear

this news would put the u.s. and nato in direct conflict with russia. >> todd: gas surging to a record high $4.25 per gallon. >> i said defending freedom is going to cost. it's going to cost us as well. >> failed leadership here, you can't even put words around it. >> more companies now cutting ties with russia. >> mcdonald's, coca-cola, starbucks all plans to leave the country. >> brian: we begin with a fox news alert. a kyiv police officer is now dead and others seriously hurt after russian troops fire ton civilians they are great at that. just evacuating despite agreeing to another cease-fire. >> ainsley: meanwhile the ukrainian president zelenskyy receiving a standing ovation from the u.k. parliament for refusing to give in to russian forces. look at that. >> steve: echoing churchill. benjamin hall is live in kyiv with developments. benjamin, one hour ago just as you started, you heard to your

right you heard anti-aircraft munitions going off. has it been quiet over the last hour? >> >> it has, yes. we can still hear the planes overhead but no more of the outgoing air defense systems. we didn't just hear it we saw it. it was a huge rocket that last no, sir more than a few hundred meters from where we are now. the fears that the russian air planes will try to strike that we are getting reports of street-to-street hand to hand fighting on the outskirts of kyiv and ukrainians are not saying they are not sure how much longer they can hold back the russian forces. they said they have been doing a very good job sore fall. the russians just sent in a lot of reinforcements, 200 vehicles and so the feeling is they are encroaching. a few miles north of that in another outskirt, the russian forces opening fire on civilians and as you pointed out this one policeman killed trying to defend him. he is now being hailed as a hero. his name alexi and he was trying to get civilians to safety. all of this as russia agrees to

another cease-fire. we have seen these cease-fires announced the last few days. none of them have held except one yesterday which managed to get 23500 people out of the city of sunniy. the big problem appears to be in mariupol. that's where 200,000 people are sheltering under the russian bombs, underground. running out food, water, heating, medicines, antibiotics and painkillers. they have none of them and they need to get out. the red cross has described it as apocalyptic that is the main focus for the humanitarian aid. president zelenskyy released a video late tuesday claiming 52 children have now been killed. he praised the u.s. and the u.k. form cutting off russian oil, gas, and lng supplies. he invoked churchill and world war ii. >> we will fight until the end at sea, in the air, we will continue fighting our land whatever the cost.

we will fight in the forest, in the fields, on the shores, in the streets. >> pentagon appears to put brakes on the planes to send migs to ukraine. poland has said they will send them but didn't want to give them directly to ukraine fearing greater involvement in the conflict instead they will give them to u.s. and send them to ramstein base in germany for the townhouse do with them as they wish. president zelenskyy writing today on his facebook writing this about the saga. we do not have time for all these signals. this is not ping-pong. this is about human lives. we ask once again, solve it faster. do not shift the responsibility. send us planes. and the head of the dia and the u.s. also saying that it is russia's plan now to cut off supplies to kyiv. and in his estimate, the city only has about 10 days to two weeks of supplies left in the city. on the diplomatic front, it has

to be said there has been some progress made. there is high level talk tomorrow in turkey. between the foreign ministers of russia and ukraine. and as i was saying earlier, some shift there in the negotiating position. ukrainians saying they would no longer insist on nato membership. that's very significant and russian side ukrainian neutrality and recognition of donetsk, and crimea as independent. some real hopes for negotiated settlement. the feeling is they are not quite ready for that but positive it's moving in that correction and at that high level. brian, steve, ainsley? >> brian: maybe they will pull back on nato but trying very hard to get into the your honor mean union and that looks very good. quick question, i haven't heard much about drones from turkey have they been continuing to provide those drones because i heard they are very effective but i haven't heard much about it lately. >> >> you are right. neither i have to be honest, early on we talked a lot about them drones that turkey gave

quite a few of. which have been so successful at armenian war just last year. they are cheap, they are effective. they are easy to control. they were helping to take out some of these convoys. we know that the ukrainians are asking for more drones. they still are whether or not they received them, we don't know. slightly larger drones, ukrainians are using much smaller drones that carry a pay load of about 3 kilos. those they have plenty of. and they send those out very hard to be shot down because they are so small. and actually almost a playbook out of some of the middle eastern tactics that we saw. you can just rig these things explosives, fly them over, drop the explosives, very effective and cost fixture. but, yes, drones are one of the things that they so badly need here. >> ainsley: thank you so much, benjamin. let's bring in pete ricketts of the great state of nebraska. good morning, governor. >> good morning. thank you very much for having me on. >> ainsley: thanks for coming on. we are listening to all this news. our hearts are broken for the

people of ukraine. how does it effect us here in many ways? first and foremost gasoline. gas prices are through the roof. yesterday the president made the announcement no longer will we buy oil from russia. can you see the numbers there. a year ago $2.08. today the folks of nebraska will pay around $4.25. if not more. for gasoline. but the president cut off the supply, the imports from russia. however, we're not going to be drilling here. now he is looking at venezuela, is he looking at iran. and other countries. and trying to get oil from them. but isn't this his policy, his green policy costing all of us, the folks of nebraska, people around america more money because he won't drill here? >> yeah, absolutely. and, in fact, it his his policy that encouraged putin to invade in the first place by making us dependent on foreign oil again. if we were energy independent that would give putin more pause about invading.

foreign oil places like you mentioned venezuela, iran. what needs to do now is reestablish the keystone pipeline, can get that up and running by first quarter of next year. we can rely more heavily on things we produce in the united states like ethanol as well to help stretch our fuel supply. we should be selling oil to our friends and allies and not buying from our enemies. >> steve: absolutely. what you just said right there, it is -- it's sobering because you said that we have heard that, you know, they could have the keystone up by the end of the first quarter of next year. that means had joe biden not pulled the plug on the first day the keystone would be flowing all that oil that we currently need all over america. the reason we are talking to you about today's developments is because the keystone would have gone across nebraska. and right now the number one story on foxnews.com worker says

energy crisis a result of biden's policy. we tried to warn you. everybody tried to warn him, governor. but he wasn't going to listen. >> yeah. that's exactly right. one of the things we talked about when we were talking about why we should have the keystone pipeline is energy security. canada is one of our closest allies. and to have oil relationship with them is way better than divoog venezuela or iran. >> steve: what could go wrong? >> the president is living in some sort of, you know, disconnected world if he thinks we cannot be energy independent and have security. >> brian: right. so, governor, this is what i find so insidious. in america, we are a profit driven country. not when it comes to oil and gas. part of the green technology movement is to destroy fossil fuels. fox news contributor business expottery knows all about commodities oil and gas and says this is what has been going on below the radar, watch. >>

>> follow the money or the lack of money, right? this is an administration that's own treasury secretary janet yellen, okay, went to the bank after the g-7 energy deal and said, listen, we want to make sure that no banks lend money to fossil fuel companies unless absolutely necessary. they weaponized the federal reserve to go after banks to look at their carbon footprint and say hey, if you are lending money to u.s. oil and gas, you could be -- it could be a crime against climate. we will go after you. they are going after pension funds, investors. i have customers, sean, whose banks have closed their accounts, why? because they're oil producers. that's unamerican in my view. and i think that kind of pressure on pension funds and investors is what is really killing the u.s. energy industry right now. >> brian: we have $244 billion in u.s. liquified gas projects stalled because they can't get financing. do you believe -- did you know

this was happening and how can we let this stand? >> yeah. in fact, some of of my colleagues in other states like north dakota, wyoming, oklahoma, texas, have been also on the administration about this war on fossil fuels by using the banking system. and, again, it gets back to that the biden administration is pushing this radical green agenda, is ignoring the realities that we are fossil fuel and could be energy independent if it weren't for their policy. >> brian: makes us more vulnerable and gets us into wars and now you have places like europe who said we had no choice to go to the russians because you guys aren't supplying like you could. we haven't developed the technology to transport liquid gas like we should. why wouldn't we want to be the number one supplier to our allies? that's anti-american behavior. >> yep. and this is something that the president is living in some different world when he keeps pushing his electric vehicles and thinking that that's going

to be a solution to, you know, a short-term problem here. as you said earlier, there are children dying in ukraine right now. we need a solution near term and the near term solution is ramp up all oil production. get the keystone pipeline going again and become energy independent, supply energy to europe so they don't have to deal with putin. >> ainsley: it would provide high paying jobs in the energy sector as well for americans. there are some iconic brands that we all enjoy here in america. that i'm sure russians enjoy, too. but no longer. heineken, kfc, coca-cola, pepsi, some of the companies suspended sales in russia. many donating money like pizza hut and kfc donating to red cross. some are closing and still pay their employees. how powerful is a statement like this and will it effect putin's moves in ukraine? >> well, i think what it demonstrates is american companies are understanding the seriousness of this. and frankly we need something like a new cold war here.

we need to isolate russia. we can't allow them to be able to invade their neighbors and not have consequences. and frankly, given who putin is, it seems to me that this is going to be something where they have got to be completely isolated which means no business with them whatsoever. so, i think these companies are wise. this is where this is all going to go. >> steve: yeah there is a graphic that shows the logos of the various companies that have cut ties with russia. the big question is after the, you know, after the war with ukraine, how quickly do those companies go back? governor, i know that i have been to lincoln, nebraska a number ever times. i know that that's where the legislature, the unicameral is based and your office is as well. when you walk around town, what do people ask you about this? because people ask us on the streets or our friends they go what do you think is going to happen with putin and ukraine? what is the major concern of the people of nebraska? >> well, i think the thing that people in nebraska are most concerned about is just the

people of ukraine. we have a ukrainian population here and concerned about the children being impacted in the country, and they want to see action. they want to see putin is held accountable so this comes to an end. frankly the administration is not moving fast enough to be able to isolate russia, to take the steps to be able to make sure that they pay for, you know, this transgression and frankly we have got to cut off the funding for the russian war machine which sits oil. >> steve: the president said there is going to be pain at the pump. i was listening to interviews with people who were actually at gas stations yesterday and they said, you know, if this is what i have to do to pay more for gas to him the people of ukraine i'm all in for now. >> yeah. i have got to tell you first of all, would very go to remember the pain at the pump was happening long before this crisis. >> steve: absolutely. >> the biden administration's policies starting last year started driving up the price of

oil and reckless policies with regard to the stimulus package of march of last year's inflation this was happening beforehand. i think what you saw if you may recall when china was trying to punish our american farmers with their policies during the trump administration the measure farmer said we will step up and do the pain because we know that's the right thing to do. americans are willing to do the same thing with regard to ukraine. let's not try to blame gas prices on ukraine this was happening by the biden administration policies long before the ukraine became a crisis. >> brian: we actually armed them in november and december we wouldn't be scrambling to get them old jets here in march. so it's an embarrassment. governor, thanks so much. >> ainsley: thanks, governor. >> great, thank you very much. appreciate it. >> steve: have a great day. >> ainsley: ukraine started 14 days ago. >> steve: gas prices went up starting about a year ago. >> brian: he thinks we are moron is he going to scream that out at an event next it imagine

place where the world can out its problems and in reality a place where the despotisms and dictatorship just daily lecture berate the world's democracy it's always been this uncomfortable imbalance and people in america public life have pointed this out for many decades jean kirkpatrick and daniel patrick moynahan. just look at the reality of what happened the other week when russia invaded ukraine, there was a special session which country happened to be chairing the special session but russia? now, that's just typical thing ha happens in the united states, in the news has come out from the irish times that allegedly, u.n. staff have been told to use the same language that putin insist people use which is to not refer to it as a war and so on. it was all too believable. it was a regional office. even a regional office of the u.n. during this is really reprehensible behavior. >> brian: they crack down on

their press in moscow if you use the word invasion or war. they fired you or jailed you, so little coincidence there, i'm not buying it douglas, i watched that extraordinary message to the parliament. i watched it on sky news as zelenskyy addressed. we never seen that before. i have never seen it of about. he got a standing ovation, they quoted churchill. alluded never quitting. but are they doing enough? are the u.k., the u.s., the nato allies are we doing enough? because he is demanding it. >> >> yes. dangerous tricky juncture at the moment, aren't we? because everybody wants to support the ukrainians and everybody in the british parliament yesterday, including the speaker of the house wearing ukrainian colors on their lapels. i have never seen that at any point in lie life on an international issue. and in some ways that's worrying because we got to be careful don't fall into group think or group idea about it this must be

done, this is something therefore, this something must be done this has led us into lots of dangers before. but, undoubtedly, the u.k. likely other european countries, are first of all aware that front line of this than the u.s. is. secondly, trying to work out what they can do to the provision of lethal weaponry without that crucial thing of threading into something vladimir putin would sees a basically becoming involved in the conflict. none of these countries, like america, knob of these countries want to get involved in the conflict with russia. so, delicate balancing game of what exactly is that line? and, of course, it's not particularly clear because vladimir putin even isn't particularly clear. he has said on the exceptional outside interference would trigger basically a war. a wider war. but he has said that even the sanctions against russia are effectively treading over that line of unacceptable interference. so the danger we are all n the

international is that line is blurrier than we would like it to be. we do not want to trigger world war iii. on the other hand, we don't want to have vladimir putin just get an easy ride. >> brian: while we speak and analyze and wonder what we should do people are dying. women and children are being shot in cold blood or dying of starvation or thirst as we are seeing in mariupol. time is not on our side on this even though the ukrainians seem to be slowly bleeding out the russians. douglas, thanks so much. >> it's a great pleasure. >> brian: any minute now, vice president harris will head to poland to get a look at the humanitarian crisis herself. g.o.p. senator ron johnson will react to that and so much more when we come back. ♪ my asthma felt anything but normal. ♪♪ it was time for a nunormal with nucala. nucala is a once monthly add-on treatment for severe eosinophilic asthma that can mean less oral steroids. not for sudden breathing problems. allergic reactions can occur. get help right away for swelling of face,

he is on the senate foreign relations committee joins us. another opportunity for the vice president to go negotiate this migs deal and find out what we could do to help the humanitarian crisis. senator, do you think she is up for the task? >> >> well, good morning, i'm not expecting much. remember, they put vice president harris in charge of the border. that has been a complete fiasco. and if you really think about it, it's in those early days of the biden administration, when he canceled the keystone xl pipeline, opened up our borders, starting pushing for out-of-control deficit spending which has sparked 7.5% inflation to 40-year high. all of these policy decisions have weakened america. it's emboldened our enemies. it's basically tyrants to take advantage of the situation. so you have now a situation where tyrants are on the rise. and we're trying to react. and it's very costly to react as you are seeing with a $13 billion aid package. would have been far better to

supply ukraine with the lethal defensive weaponry and keep them in a position where it might have changed putin's calculation that's not what this administration did. what they have done is virtually across the board enacted policies that weakened this country. >> there was a bipartisan push in the capital where you are for u.s. to stop buying oil from russia. the president announced it yesterday. after so many lawmakers were pressuring him. and the people were pressuring him. that's step 1. isn't step 2 to drill here, to be energy independent again? >> well, step 1 is to be energy independent again, this is an example of president biden fog in president obama's footsteps of leading from behind. caving to public pressure, i'm glad at least he didn't in this case. you need take a look at what his administration is doing now, negotiating with iran. actually, they are not negotiating with iran. russia is negotiating for us.

with iran. do you think maybe russia perceives a little weakness in the fact that we're letting them negotiate the iran -- the nuclear deal with iran? this is absurd. they are going down hat in hand going down to venezuela. a nation that should be sanctioned, it is sanctioned. because mow dura is a tyrant. trying to get oil from both iran and from venezuela, but you really need to take a look at what is happening right now negotiations with iran. it is a disastrous deal. they are going to lift sanctions on all these terrorists. they are going to funnel tens of billion dollars to iran to strengthen the irg and other terrorists that is the iranian state? this is disastrous. they are continuing down this path and, of course, the mainstream media is really not covering this so americans are not aware of it. >> steve: yesterday, we covered the story and one of your members on your side referred to this as the administration would rather deal with terrorists than

texans because they would like to drill for more oil. a lot of oil does move by truck. i know that big trucker convoy, the people's convoy, has been encircling washington, d.c. they say they are not going to go away until they get some action. you met with them yesterday. what exact exactly, -- what's their end game? when are they going ghom? >> well, first of all, let me say, it was a moving experience to me. because they represent all of the heroes of covid. remember when everything was shutting down but we couldn't shut down our economy and you had truckers and you had grocery store clerks and had you nurses and you had doctors continuing to perform their duties and, you know, brave the pandemic? >> steve: they were the frontline. >> the exact same people now are losing their jobs because these idiotic and pointless mandates. so all the truckers are doing is they are representing all those heroes of the pandemic and just asking for their freedoms back. they want to be able to live their lives.

they don't want to have to face termination if they don't want to subject themselves to, for example, a vaccine that is so still emergency use authorization. it was a very moving experience. they told powerful stories. i'm hoping the mainstream media will cover their stories because they have an important point to make. >> steve: absolutely. >> brian: we know this. trucker story is extremely important. but as we go back to poland and the vice president as we know is going to be leaving their shortly, the vice president has moved. >> steve: joint base andrews. >> brian: joint base andrews to be taken off there. as we find out that we are -- and there she is. someone is cleaning the lens, obviously. going to be walking out there shortly. arriving there right now. >> steve: here she comes. >> brian: for the vice president this is extremely important moment. she has to find a way to get those 29 migs into president zelenskyy's hand.

you have got to get them off. i guess we are not comfortable with nato air base in ramstein. do you have any suggestion how she should handle that as she is about to get out of the car in the rain? >> well, it's kind of too late to do it the right way which would have been quietly. we should have been funneling lethal defensive weaponry into ukraine as russia was building up. to, again, hopefully change putin's calculation. now i think we do need to support the ukrainian people, but, you know, doing it overtly like this is a concern, this is tickless situation. putin on the rise now a war criminal is ban theying about his nuclear weapons. only thing that gives him power. achieve peafs through strength. not just military strength. national strength. starts with national unit. that's something president biden is completely failed in his number one goal is to unify and heal this nation. he has done the exact opposite that also weakens america.

>> steve: also, at the same time, perhaps had they installed the sanctions ahead of time, putin would have changed his mind, but it's hard to get the toothpaste back in the tube. senator, thank you very much for joining us today from washington, d.c. >> stay well. >> brian: you too, of course. senator running for re-election. if he doesn't win his seat the republicans are not going to get the senate. >> ainsley: 39 minutes after the top of the hour. america's largest city is on high alert that russia could strike with a cyberattack. what we know about these types of threats from the kremlin coming up next. ♪ nicorette knows, quitting smoking is freaking hard. you get advice like: try hypnosis... or... quit cold turkey. kidding me?! instead, start small. with nicorette. which can lead to something big. start stopping with nicorette

right? that we are seeing in ukraine, the refugees, the shelling, this is modern warfare. so it could come at any time. and you might be online and just not even understand what's coming at you, so it could pop up at any time. there is no credible threats right now. but we need to stay vigilant. >> ainsley: thank you so much, kelly. >> absolutely. >> ainsley: watch russia the cyber threat available now on fox nation. it is 46 minutes top of the hour. now to a fox weather alert. tornado ripping through mobile area in alabama smashing treeing and damaging roofs. another tornado touching down in florida in tallahassee. let's check in with janice dean for the fox weather forecast. >> we have had active tornado warnings all morning long. the latest one west central georgia. zoom, in the latest tornadoes warn storm. marion counties and shellie counties until 8:15 a.m. local time. so seeing that doppler radar indicated tornado and so know what to do if there is a watch

economy has always been a big priority with truckers. >> steve: absolutely. okay. when you started and i remember, this diesel fuel was 49 cents a gallon. i drove by some gas stations yesterday and the prices were unbelievable. a year ago, the national price of gas was 2.80. and today it's at 4.25. so, when you started, it was 49 cents a gallon. how much, monty, did it cost to you fill up yesterday? >> actually, yesterday i paid $5.15 a gallon for fuel. i wasn't that low. i think i got 57 gallons well over 300 and something dollars. it's fuel crisis is having a huge impact on us truckers right now. >> steve: okay. so, obviously, if you have got pay that much money, you are going to have to pass the charge along somehow. you are charing a fuel surcharge

right now, right? >> >> that is correct. our current fuel surcharge from company i have a small fleet of four trucks. our current fuel surcharge is 38%. on top of $1,000 freight bill there is another $308 added on to that and, you know, steve, while i'm glad that we have a mechanism to pass that along to our customers, you know that my owner-operators or subcontract subcontractors that we have all the fuel will we got go to those folks government pass that along. at the end of the day, when i go to the grocery store i'm a consumer like everybody else is i'm feeling it in the pocketbook again. >> steve: absolutely. we heard the president yesterday though, monty, he blames putin, although you have been gassing up for the past year, these high prices started way before putin and ukraine. >> yeah, steve, if you go back and look at the some of the charge, it almost started from day one, a steady increase on

fuel and oil and, you know, keeping track i know it's been, you know, every day, every week it was up a dollar or two a barrel. so it's been a steady increase for the last year and three or four months. so, it's something that's very concerning to us for sure. >> steve: especially if yesterday you paid $5.50 a gallon. today it's 5.25. monte thank you for joining us live keep on trucking just saying. >> thank you, steve. >> steve: congresswoman and ukrainian immigrant victoria spartz joins us live just days after visiting refugees in poland. her story coming up next on "fox & friends." ♪ ♪

>> day 14, death, destruction. with no end in sight. >> that was here by russian missile last night. >> a key police officer is now dead and others are hurt despite russians agreeing to another cease-fire. >> ainsley: meanwhile, the ukrainian president receiving a standing ovation from the u.k. parliament. >> we will continue fighting for our land whatever the cost. >> poland is offering to hand

anti-aircraft missile. we think it may be a man portable air defense system. that's the third that we've seen firing off here from the middle and the sound of jets seems to be coming from the same place we saw the last one coming from. as i said, certainly we're seeing an escalation here in the capital. we're getting reports of hand-to-hand fighting in some of the outskirts of the northwest. and so again, what many people had been feared, the anticipation that the russian troops may be starting to move on their city, that may indeed be happening today. we're going to wait to see if there's any response from that missile, whether or not russian jets might try to take it out. for now, certainly nothing. this is the scene in kyiv today and certainly something we haven't seen here. it's been relatively quiet for the last few days. every night you hear the artillery studs and you can hear in the outskirts, the bombing and the shelling that goes on. sometimes you see the night sky lit up.

this, what we're seeing here with these air defenses, that certainly is new. and, you know, across this whole country really, these are the scenes that are being repeated. all now under attack from russian forces and all doing their best to fight back. fight back as best as they can. the city of kyiv so far relatively untouched. that's why people are still able to move around relatively freely. it is expected that may change, may change quite soon. that's the scene here at the moment, guys. and certainly something we'll keep monitoring for you. we do get the impression that today might be the day. institute for the study of war said this yesterday, they had seen preparations in place by the russians to move on this city. that they are bringing convoys down. that they are prepping for that. and they said that when it did come, it would be by plane, by helicopter, by artillery and we keep talking about how the russians haven't had much success getting into the city because of how bravely the ukrainians have been fighting, how they have their javelins and

stingers and what we see and what we've seen around the country is them using this longer range artillery to soften the targets. intimidate the population and try to clear out the cities as best they can before sending in the ground troops. today, we've been talking about the humanitarian corridors out. for the last few days, russians have been promising the humanitarian corridors but haven't been happening. the red cross saying that yesterday, for example, the routes are were mined. some of the buses were shelled when they tried to come in. only one of the multiple attempts were successful yesterday. that was in a city where 3500 people came out. so real attempts now to try to save people. don't forget, this is the dead of winter and we're getting reports this week is going to be one of the coldest on record. temperatures around 20 degrees. and i know when the rockets are falling, that might not sound like much but when the heat and electricity have run out, when food and water have almost gone, that is also a killer. and people are really concerned for this week. tomorrow is set to be the coldest and if you see the

images of people huddled, sheltered in their basements with no heating, that is going to create a significant rise in the death toll here. it's just another weapon that putin is using, the ability to control the heating. also, reports that he now controls two of the major nuclear stations and chernobyl has just had its power cut off. they have generators which can last for 48 hours and after that, there are concerns that the cooling system can start to malfunction. so a lot going on in this country right now and a lot going on in the capital of kyiv. we'll keep following it for you and seeing how many of these air defenses fight it out and bit of escalation today. >> steve: sure, when we first looked over there. can the camera guy pan back over? when we first looked at it, it looked like the contrail of a tornado with a long trail. it looks like it is dissipated. so jonathan, how does it work? go ahead. >> well, actually, i was going to say that what we're hearing

now is that was more than just a man pad. more than a portable air defense system. that was more like a book which are widely used around here. book system is the one that brought down the mh-370 plane in 2014. so that is a bigger system and being fired right from the center of kyiv right now. so certainly a bigger target than a portable one which is why there will be concerns that a russian strike might try to take it out. >> ainsley: we're being told by intel that russians could encircle kyiv within the next 24 to 72 hours. i know they are advancing towards kyiv. describe what's behind you. some of those buildings are beautiful. there's that pink building behind you, then some with the gold it looks like domes at the top. >> yeah, this is one of the most beautiful, marvelous cities in the region. it has a history going back 1,000 years, and it appears as if vladimir putin has no concern for these things. he wants to abolish anything that stands for ukrainian history and ukrainian identity

and heritage. when the bombs start coming, you expect some of these beautiful buildings and churches that have stood for so many hundreds of years, they certainly will be a target. yes, the intelligence suggests that they're trying to cut off their city. general barrier, the head of the d.i.a. saying when they did cut off supplies the city probably had between 10 days and two weeks of supplies. as i said, everyone in this city has stocked up. the shelves are bare because people have been preparing for this. when the food runs out, the situation becomes dire. we've done the same, we've been stocking up on food. we're lucky to have a generator. many people do not. you need fuel to run the generators. that will dwindle eventually. if they manage to cut off this city, there will be just another repeat of the humanitarian crisis that we've seen in so many other cities around the country. >> brian: any clear thinking commander knows they've taken one city today. even though they try to level that all. in that city, the ukrainians are out protesting the russian presence in that area.

that's a small city, i think half million. i'm wondering, how many are left, about four million people in your city? they know they can't control you guys, not you guys. they can't control the ukrainian people. >> absolutely. we don't know how many people are left in the city. we've been trying to find out. it's a city of three million people. of course, we've seen many, many of them leaving. it's hard to gauge how many are here. they don't go out. the air sirens sound and they go in the subways and we don't know. two million people have fled this city out of a population of 40 something million. hard to know how many people are here. people who are here are here to fight. they are here to defend the city. and they've said it's going to fight street to street. they have an extensive subway system. they can use that. they can pop up anywhere. it has a lot of built up buildings where they can embed themselves and target from. so there will be snipers across this city if the russians come

in. it's going to be a brutal, brutal war. there's no doubt about it. >> steve: no doubt. >> brian: i don't know if they have the stomach for it. we'll have to see. a lot of these russians don't want to be there. >> steve: benjamin, stay safe. >> ainsley: in the capital, thank you so much. vice president kamala harris is on her way to poland right now to view the ongoing humanitarian crisis first hand. >> brian: more than two million people have fled ukraine after russia's invasion as it continues. it's a war. most refugees are leaving the country through poland. >> steve: that's where alex hogan is standing by with the very latest. and i would imagine the people are just walking right by you towards freedom, right, alex? >> that's right. good morning, steve, brian, ainsley. this is the border to cross into -- from ukraine into poland and we're seeing just people arrive right now, these two ladies carrying everything that they've brought from ukraine with them

to this new country. a lot of shopping bags filled with clothing. and we're seeing more people in the distance now. it has been a constant flow day after day. it was very cold night. we woke up to snowfall that has all melted since now. a lot of the people that we've seen come here, they are exhausted. again, it has taken days to get here. thankfully, it's warmed up right now. unfortunately, the temperatures are going to dip by tomorrow. once they cross the border like these two women right here, what happens is they're greeted by a sea of volunteers. behind me, you can see not only the media here to welcome them as well. but there's a person right here who is helping people with sim cards now that they've crossed the border in a new country, they can get a sim card to be able to call others and ask them for help and ask if they can stay with them at least temporarily until they figure out where they're going. others here have come in from all over the world. they're bringing food. they're bringing clothing.

i talked with one person who drove from birmingham in the u.k. it took them 30 hours to drive here. they brought a truck full of diapers and food for all of these children that you see who really do not have much with them. there's also medical tents that are set up. everything that they can do to keep people out of the cold especially after the long and dangerous journey that they have had. we see little pets here, too, that people have brought with them. everything that they could, beloved ones, animals, the most essential things that you need in this time. it's really been remarkable to see the humanity come together for this in some of these moments of hope. last night, there was a man who brought a piano here to play for the refugees while they waited for buses and there was a little girl. take a listen to this video of her singing in the last couple of days. ♪

>> just a beautiful sound of that child singing. one thing that is interesting to caution, all of the people that you see here are just walking across the border. they're also greeted with people sometimes who are holding signs telling them that they will drive them anywhere else in the country or anywhere in the continent. some people have driven for days on end to be able to give these people a safe ride and safe refuge. it is an amazing act of kindness. but refugee centers here are cautioning people that there could be human trafficking traps so what they're asking any of these refugees to do is if you get in a car with someone, always take a photo with them. take a photo of their registration and send that information to your family so nothing happens to them along the way. steve, brian, ainsley? >> steve: great advice. all right, alex right there on

the border with poland. we should point out that the little girl who was singing that song made it out of the bomb shelter and she is out of ukraine. >> ainsley: she was in a kyiv bunker for days. little food. little water. she went to poland with her grandmother and her 15-year-old brother. it says her parents decided to send all of them over to poland but she's safe. >> brian: let's bring in a woman who knows this area quite well, victoria spartz, ukrainian immigrant and leading the charge here in america to make people aware of the terrible situation in ukraine. congresswoman, what advice would you have for vice president harris as she goes to poland on the humanitarian cause and i imagine to negotiate this deal once and for all? >> well, i would give advice to all politicians in our country and around europe to actually do more actions, less words. we do a lot of talk. grandstanding and all of those

things and because the situation is dire. i just went to the border myself and hopefully, vice president is going to see how terrible it is and start taking some actions. this is not just a crisis. this is going to be catastrophe. the u.n. is completely absent. never to be seen. you know, we just got some people, it's week two, right? right now of the crisis, you know, they still assessing. i mean, red cross is at least trying to assess something. u.s.a., just kind of also assessing something. we need actions, people are dying. people in this cold weather for days, left houses with nothing. it's going to be much worse before it gets better because a lot of people that are going to be leaving now will come from the areas where they're bombed, they'll have health issues. they have no clothes. no money. i mean, it is going to be bad! and poland is doing whatever they can but it cannot be just a polish problem alone and it has to be more proactive and problematic for me what i've seen. i haven't seen any action.

a lot of talk and it's just terrible. >> steve: you are the first ukrainian born member of the american congress. so nobody knows this story better than you. i'm sure you heard from the c.i.a. director yesterday, bill burns who said that vladimir putin thought he could go in there and take kyiv in two days. it's two weeks later because your people are fighting back ferociously! >> well, it's, you know, they underestimated ukrainian people. i'll tell you the truth, it seems president putin and president biden did, unfortunately, underestimated ukrainian people and their desire and willingness to fight for freedoms and i think unfortunate for them, this major mistake has caused them a lot of blood and problems. but we have to go forward and figure out where we are and we cannot abandon these people. and right now, you know, i understand they feel like they're abandoned. so we can do more and we should

do more in the world community and europe, too. and we need to lead european community to step up and, you know, because it's unfortunate for me to see that everyone is talking like oh, poland will take care of everything. it's a great country. i spend some time in my young years in poland. they're good people. strong people. but this is a crisis that is as much their crisis and we need to help them. and europe needs to step up, too. >> ainsley: congresswoman, what is your story? are any of you relives still in ukraine? what was it like when you were visiting poland? >> well, you know, i still have some relatives in ukraine. hard to get evacuated. and i mean, the suffering of the people that you see there, the loss of human life, and you see these little children and mothers are crying and trying to contact their men and see if they're still alive. also, such the strength of the people, you know, i don't know if i would be able to handle it as good as they do. we met with ukrainian border

guard, guys, we need to get our women and children out. we are going to fight. we are not going to let them defeat us. and he said very interesting phrase and he said, you know, if russians laid their arms down, there will be no war. if ukrainians laid their arms down, there will be no ukraine and no people. and it's very interesting when he said that because it's true. he will destroy all of the people. so they have no choice. they have to win this war. >> brian: for him to think the ukrainian people want to be russian is how wrong he is, he's a maniac. when the president of the united states came out and said we'll stop within 45 days any oil and gas imports from russia, i bet that was a great move. when he followed up with next was stunningly oblivious and he's trying to pull the wool over america's eyes. the president is actually saying because vladimir putin, gas prices are this high. can you take that leap?

>> well, it's kind of a joke in some ways. it was the right thing to do and he did it under pressure and after a lot of oil companies said they're not going to do it anyway. but it was the right thing to do. but unfortunately, he didn't do some other right things. i think, you know, there are two things he should be doing, he should be putting pressure in saudi arabia and say, you know, you are our partners and remember who our friends are in the time of crisis. but also, unleash our energy opportunities to the country because, you know, maybe in the price it will have a factor. you know the future prices would adjust and help us to control this oil crisis. and i think that is something you have to do as part of it to address the situation that we can hold on to these sanctions and have more because you need to be able as a country to defeat them economically so you need to be strong for yourself internally.

>> steve: indeed. congresswoman victoria spartz joining us today from the d.c. area. thank you very much for telling us your story. >> ainsley: thank you, congresswoman. carley has headlines for us. >> carley: we'll begin with a fox news alert. a missouri police officer killed and two other officers were seriously injured during a shootout. police say the suspect was also killed after opening fire on officers. 10 police officers have now been killed in shootings this year. a 43% increase from this time last year. the peoples convoy promising to keep driving around the capital beltway until they are heard. truckers sharing their demands, rather, with republican senators ted cruz and ron johnson yesterday. senator johnson joined us earlier this morning and told us about the meeting. >> so all the truckers are doing they're representing all those years in the pandemic and asking for their freedoms back. >> carley: the truckers want the

covid mandates to end and demanding the keystone pipeline be reopened. russian state media releasing the first image of wnba star brittany greiner in custody. she was arrested last month at an airport in moscow on suspicion of carrying a cannabis filled vape pen. the image being as we learned greiner was earning $1.5 million playing for a moscow based basketball team backed by vladimir putin's friends during her off-season. the refugees fleeing ukraine are facing bitter cold temperatures. most without access to power or heat. the red cross is working around the clock to provide critical aid it those families impacted by the conflict providing food, hygiene, helping many evacuate and more. here at fox news, fox corporation has donated $1 million to support those efforts and you can donate, too. to help, go to redcross.org/fox forward. every penny counts.

>> steve: they need it. >> ainsley: they do. >> brian: meanwhile, 10 minutes before the bottom of the hour. still ahead, former attorney general joins us live plus -->> ainsley: former nfl star tim tebow has a message of faith to share. he'll join us live. why is guy fieri in the neighbors' kitchen? it's slider sunday! sliiiiiiiiii-der sunday! these chicken parm sliders on king's hawaiian rolls are fire! slider sunday! i want that. everything's better between king's hawaiian bread.

mmm!

allergies don't have to be scary. spraying flonase daily stops b your body fromawaiian bread. overreacting to allergens all season long. psst! psst! flonase all good.

>> steve: russian president vladimir putin warn that ukraine is ramping up today, 14 days in, former attorney general bill barr says biden's presence on the world stage is to blame. in his new book, he predicted that russia would take advantage of the new president. i'm afraid with an intermittently alert joe biden,

russia will pursue strategic goals and little work for agreed upon things with the united states. he joins us live. good morning to you. >> good morning. >> steve: why did you say that about putin? you were right. >> he's always been clear about his strategic goals which is to have ukraine in his sphere -- russia's fear of influence and he doesn't want nato there. there was no real urgency because there wasn't any, you know, prospect of ukraine being brought into nato any time soon. but as soon as biden won, i thought he would see this as a window of opportunity to grab what he wanted because i think he viewed biden as weak. and then biden proceeded with that ugly withdraw from afghanistan killing america's energy independence which really increased russia's leverage dramatically, and he didn't put in military hardware that would have made russia think twice. >> steve: you have been talking

about russia for years now. this is obviously what is going on with ukraine. but when you were attorney general, it was all about russia collusion. and now we know that did not work out. you know, a lot of people who, you know, obviously trump did not -- it's been found trump did not collude with the russians to win the election. >> right. >> steve: but there was that whole story that it seems like america, half of america bought hook, line and sinker. and people who are watching want to know that somebody is going to be accountable if they broke the law. >> well, you're right. it was a very damaging, big lie that started off the administration. >> steve: did it start out as a dirty trick? >> i believe it did. i think it started out as a political dirty trick but it was propelled by the f.b.i. jumping on it and spying on the trump campaign. and it goes beyond the unfairness to trump and the disruption of his administration.

i think it tied trump's hands to deal in normally with russia and try to negotiate some kind of structure or framework diplomatically that would avoid what we're seeing today. but his hands were tied by russia gate so it did a lot of damage. as you know, i appointed a special counsel to go and look at it, mr. durham and people are very impatient. i'm frustrated by the time it takes. people have to understand that he wasn't able to get into the major part of this case until december 2019 when the i.g. actually completed his report and turned it over to him. and then three months later, it's covid. so it's a long torturous process, that's what criminal investigations sometimes are. but i think he will get to the bottom of it and if he can prove a crime, i think he won't hesitate to indict people. >> steve: we're waiting for that. i know you were attorney general during bush 41 and then you came

back to become one of donald trump's most effective cabinet members. one of the reasons you went back into public service was, you know, you're an old school conservative and you were worried about the direction of the country because you felt in 2020, in particular, we took a turn to the left in a hard way. >> right. i think the most dramatic change in our body politic has been under the obama administration and the sharp left ward turn of the democratic party into a form of progressivism that's very totalitarian in its temper. once trump got the nomination, i supported him. i supported his policies. and i thought we were headed for a constitutional crisis with the russia gate stuff. and i didn't want to go back into government and resisted it for a long time. but at the end of the day, i was persuaded by others that i had a good chance of being confirmed and i had the experience and the independence because i'm not looking for another job at my

age to help right the ship. and that's why i went back in. >> steve: and when you were talking to donald trump, he's wavering whether or not to hire you for attorney general. when you were in college, you were playing flag football and one of the other kids in the other team threw sand in your eyes. what did you do? >> i waited until the game was over so we could actually finish the game and then i kneaded out justice by decking him. i told that story to the president. i said mr. president, punching back is ok. if you immediately punch back when people attack you, you're letting them pick the time and place. and i said, you have to be more strategic and i think you and i are going to have a little tension. this is before he, you know, i came in. you and i will have a little tension because i believe in being somewhat strategic and he's just impulsively punch back and i think that -- and i told

him this story. but he didn't seem to understand the bottom line which is, i said look, the guy got justice. he was laid out. and the game was finished. if you had done it, everyone would have spent the afternoon holding you apart and never played the game and never have gotten to the guy. >> steve: man, oh, man and ultimately the president did hire you. the book is called "one damn thing after another". it's not something that alludes to donald trump. that's something a former attorney general told you. >> that's right. >> steve: thank you very much for joining us. >> thank you very much. >> steve: still ahead, president biden says there's not much he can do about record high gas prices because they're vladimir putin's fault. gas prices were going up long before the invasion. dana perino reacts coming up. there's a different way to treat hiv. it's every-other-month, injectable cabenuva. for adults who are undetectable, cabenuva is the only complete hiv treatment

you can get every other month. cabenuva helps keep me undetectable. it's two injections, given by a healthcare provider every other month. it's one less thing to think about while traveling. hiv pills aren't on my mind. a quick change in my plans is no big deal. don't receive cabenuva if you're allergic to its ingredients or taking certain medicines, which may interact with cabenuva. serious side effects include allergic reactions, post-injection reactions, liver problems, and depression. if you have a rash and other allergic reaction symptoms, stop cabenuva and get medical help right away. tell your doctor if you have liver problems or mental health concerns, and if you are pregnant, breastfeeding, or considering pregnancy. some of the most common side effects include injection-site reactions, fever, and tiredness. if you switch to cabenuva, attend all treatment appointments. every other month and i'm good to go. ask your doctor about every-other-month cabenuva. i look back with great satisfaction every other month and i'm good to go. on my 32 years of active duty. i understand the veteran mentality. these are people who have served, they'e been in leadership positions,

they're willing to put their life on the line if necessary and they come to us and they say, "i need some financial help at this point in time." they're not looking for a hand out, they're looking for a little hand up. my team at newday usa is going to do everything we possibly can to make sure that veteran gets that loan.

american drivers feeling the squeeze as gas prices are hitting an all time high. president biden claiming that there's not much that he can do as mideast leaders are reportedly ignoring his calls to discuss oil. joining us now is newsroom co-anchor and "the five" co-host dana perino. >> hi, good to see you. >> ainsley: the president saying there isn't much he can do about it but he can. >> it ignores something that says your administration and your party have had a philosophy of figuring out a way to depress fossil fuel exploration and production in favor of greener technologies. that was a campaign choice. do you remember during the campaign he said he wanted to end fossil fuels? and it caused a huge uproar and everyone said, mr. biden, you can't say that on his side. you can't say it outloud is what they meant. but then if you look at the policies, like there were some very concerted efforts to figure out a way to basically depress fossil fuel exploration and production and figure out a way to get to the cleaner energy future.

i think all of us would love a cleaner energy future. the thing is we cannot change the laws of physics. they are what they are. and the president is right in that he's saying there's not much he can do right away. right now this moment in order to deal with the pain. there's an interesting idea that i saw that would be something in terms of means tested for people of a certain income level that you could figure out a way to provide some sort of voucher to help them as they get through. you make it temporary, make a six-month period as other domestic oil and gas hopefully get off the ground. when they say at the administration, there's not much they can do. there's something they can do as we move forward, they're not willing to do that yet. >> ainsley: you've had the unique opportunity to work in the white house. what is happening behind closed doors there? when you have the alaska governor saying let our people drill. when you have democrats in texas saying we have so much oil here, we'd rather be independent. >> i think the administration within the white house itself, there might be some dissenting voices but remember, it was even on november 3rd that the energy

secretary said that the pain of paying more at the pump was what we had to go through in order to get to this greener energy future. just this week, kamala harris and pete buttieg told everybody the solution was to go out and buy an electric vehicle for $60,000. this opportunity we have in front of us is be more sober minded for a long term energy secure future that gets us to a greener energy future in the long run. if i were them at the white house right now, i would say what can we do to do operation warp speed for domestic oil and gas production. that's what they should be doing. >> ainsley: don't you remember when we bought your first car? i had to make so many payments to afford my first like used honda and i think it cost like $18,000. a $60,000 car? the average american can't afford that. >> but i had the tarizmo, i'll never forget it. one of the reasons my parents helped me get a car, i needed to take my sister to her allergy shots.

that was important. families are trying to figure it out. imagine you have three or four cars in a family and you're going to get three electric vehicles? and do you remember in virginia when they had that horrible snow storm and all those people were stranded for 36 hours. do you know what happened to the people who had electric cars? they ran out of electricity on the road and i'm not saying that electric vehicles aren't a good solution for some people sometimes but it's not an immediate solution. and when kamala harris and pete say that, they need to spend less time on twitter and more time being more serious of what we're going to do. not only in the short term but long term for energy security, price stability but our own national security as well. >> ainsley: what's coming up on america's newsroom? >> we'll have rick perry, former energy secretary for president trump and also in texas. when president biden was in there, he didn't meet with anybody from the oil and gas industry. i can't understand it. we have ted cruz and michael allen, i love following him. he's a really, really smart and plugged in on all things foreign

policy so he'll be there to kick us off today. >> ainsley: talking about ukraine. >> yeah. >> ainsley: thanks so much. we'll be watching. still ahead, a new york police department is supplying ukrainians with bulletproof vests. how the world is rallying behind their effort to protect their homeland. my asthma felt anything but normal. ♪ ♪ it was time for a nunormal with nucala. nucala reduces asthma attacks it's a once-monthly add-on treatment for severe eosinophilic asthma. not for sudden breathing problems. allergic reactions can occur. get help right away for swelling of face, mouth, tongue, or trouble breathing. infections that can cause shingles have occured. don't stop steroids unless told by your doctor. tell your doctor if you have a parasitic infection. may cause headache, injection site reactions, back pain, and fatigue. ask your asthma specialist about a nunormal with nucala.

they called that we sent some of these decommissioned vests over to iraq so that it could line those vehicles to offer better protection to our military. and now, we're looking to do it again as we see ukrainians fight for their freedom. >> brian: what do you have and what are you sending? >> well, we're sending over 750 if you can include other law enforcement agencies, sheriff's office in suffolk county, over 1,000 from suffolk county. and those are going to be going over to assist in the war effort. you know, we have a lot of members of our police department, law enforcement here in suffolk county that have served in the military as well and it's just a strong desire among our law enforcement community to help in any way they can. and this idea came out of that desire, suffolk county police commissioner rodney harrison and our veteran service agency director said we could use these

decommissioned vests which for legal purposes we can't use here any longer but certainly can be put to great use in that theater of war in ukraine. >> brian: i see the video over the weekend of the reporters being shot at and their lives were saved because they were shot in the kevlar and one guy got shot in the lower back is ok. the other one, the vest took the shot. now, in your case, i think these could go to civilians because civilians are actually in the line of fire as they leave women and children, have to leave their town, go into the wide open and the russian snipers are taking shots at them. did you ever envision that when you donated this? this will be going to civilians? >> yeah, no, those images are absolutely horrific. what we are seeing civilians, families fleeing their homes, being forced out of their homes and children being killed. civilians being targeted is absolutely horrific and it is our hope certainly that these

vests can play a small role in helping to protect ukrainians who are fighting for their country and civilians as well. i've never seen, brian, such an outpouring from long islanders and new yorkers in a long time to want to stand up and do everything we can to support these people who are fighting for their country and their freedom. >> brian: yeah, every bit helps and it's going to go to poland and then hopefully will find a way to get that into the country. thanks so much for taking action and leading the charge. >> thank you very much, brian. >> brian: meanwhile, to a fox news alert, weather alert, strong line of storms -- a line of storms is tearing through the south overnight. multiple unconfirmed tornadoes are spotted in the area. the storm damaging several homes and destroying property in mobile, alabama. got another possible tornado caught on camera. touching down in florida right near tallahassee. let's check in with senior meteorologist janis dean for the latest. janice? >> we've had tornado warned

storms all morning and today, right now is no exception. actually we had an earlier tornado warned storm from georgia that's shifted to a severe thunderstorm warning in effect until 9:00 a.m. and then go down towards the panhandle and this is a tornado warned storm for liberty, liberty county in florida. so this has been an ongoing event. not only tornadoes but large hail, damaging winds, heavy rainfall and that is going to be continuing throughout the morning into the afternoon. not only today but for the next couple of days as we have this frontal boundary that's not going anywhere and it's going to interact with a lot of humid air ahead of it. there's your future track because we have another storm system that's going to move in. this will be a whopper for the plain states, to the ohio valley to the tennessee and mississippi river valley into the northeast bringing over a foot of snow especially across the interior section. so we will continue to monitor that. that's going to be a big deal this weekend. fox weather.com for the latest details. brian? >> brian: all right, thanks so much. big deal. coming up, former nfl star tim

faith. this video showing dozens of kyiv residents still attending sunday services as their country is being invaded. >> brian: the ukrainians pray for troops during a packed service. >> steve: here to offer his own message of faith and hope and love, athlete and entrepreneur tim tebow has got a new book we'll be talking about it in a little bit. tim, when you see those images of those people and we were showing earlier the images of the children in the bomb shelters. this is like hell on earth. and if we were, any of us, in that same position, we would be praying, too. >> no doubt. i think i'll tell you, honestly, i have been so impacted by so many of the families and the individuals that we are fortunate enough to work with in ukraine with our night to shine host churches and the special needs care and the orphan care. and we know women who have just finished driving 28 hours to bring food back to wounded soldiers and to special needs communities.

we know some that have gotten so many special needs families out and have continued to go back and they said this is their calling. this is what they're called to do. they have opportunities to leave. but this is where they believe god has sent them on their mission and what they are called to do. and i'll tell you, we were talking earlier and someone said they're everyday heroes. no, i don't think so. i think they're generational heroes. some of the ones that we're fortunate enough to work with. truly, we're on a call with our team this morning, i can't tell you how many of our team was weeping this morning because of the stories that they were hearing talking in the middle of the night for us but in the morning for them and hearing what they're willing to do because they believe so much and love their people so much. and i'll tell you, it has been inspiration to me and our entire team where we have really been impacted by their faith, by their love, by their support for one another. by their hope and their community and it has really impacted our team. >> ainsley: i know that you do so much around the world and got back from africa and i follow both of you all on instagram. beautiful pictures and all of

the little children. i know you're involved with rescuing families trying to get them out of ukraine. tell us about your foundation and what you're doing. >> we're fortunate enough to have night to shine partners that we've been partnering with for years and try to help in the orphan community and the special needs community. >> ainsley: you have them in ukraine and poland, too? >> yes, ma'am, and try to help to bring them to safety and help in any way possible and work with other great nonprofits like lifesong and so many others that are working and i'll tell you, i think that there is a lot of people that are stepping up. and i know it doesn't get talked about a lot. there are so many other nonprofits we get to work with that i'm so grateful for their faith stepping up in a time of need. so many did in afghanistan and so many are doing it right now. and i think that's something that, you know, we need to praise a lot of these great organizations. the ones that we get to be partner with and do amazing things. i'll tell you the real heroes are so of the ukrainian people stepping up for their community and their family and they're

true heroes. what they're doing is real sacrifice. real sacrifice is giving up what you want now for what you want most. what they want now is love their own people. so many of them have gotten to safety but willing to risk their lives to continue to help their brother and sister. that's incredible. >> brian: other thing is in this war in particular, russians have no problem targeting the people you're trying to help. they are shooting civilians, is that some of the stories that you're hearing about? >> we know multiple stories where they're in special needs communities where there have been bombs going off around them where they're shooting around them. and there are so many families that are trying to support and get them to safety and figuring out when to go, how to go. but then the problem is the vehicles and then it's gas for the vehicles. and then it is being able, where can we go? and so many of the places are filling up. and so it's also a lot of conversations now with us and other nonprofits are how can we get more housing in other places like poland to be able to give

them a safe passage but then a place, a location to go once they are able to get out and so those are a lot of the conversations taking place now. >> steve: what's going on in ukraine looks like mission impossible. you have this new book called "mission possible" talks about what we can all do to find a purpose in our lives, and you know, make it a better -- make our lives better and better for our families. >> i believe because we are -- have been given a mission and when you know that you've been given a mission from god, it means you have purpose. and we know that that mission is possible. because he made it possible by what he did on the cross. and it's not impossible. he didn't give us an impossible mission. he gave us a mission that we can make our lives count, every single one of us have the chance to truly make our lives count. and, you know what, it's been so hard for me is you see so many stats around the country and also around the world how a third of people right now say that they're lonely most of the time or all of the time. 12% of our time is spent comparing -- in comparison and then half of our high school

girls right now say that they're sad or hopeless with persistent feelings of that. >> steve: talking about social media? >> well, i think it plays into it a lot. but when you spend your time comparing, when you spend your time, you know, in loneliness like, i don't believe that one of the keys to loneliness is more friends. i believe it's purpose. yes, we need community. yes, we need friends but we also need purpose. and we need to know that god has given us a mission and know that we have purpose. we need to know that we are created in love by love and for love that every life is special. every life is unique. we don't have to spend our time trying to be like somebody else. if god wanted us to be like somebody else, he would have made us like somebody else. but we're not. we're unique. we're one of one. and we can trust that, we can believe that. we can know that the way we're created is the way we're supposed to be and there's a mission for us the way that we are. >> steve: absolutely. >> ainsley: always invited. >> brian: tim, other thing i talk about you in particular, people think your mission is football, baseball, broadcasting. >> never. >> brian: it's not.

that's what you did. through that, you came across, you met one little boy born feet on backwards, saw what his life was like and got it, that's my mission. >> i met a boy that was born in the jungles of philippines with his feet on backwards. because of that, his village looked at him as cursed, insignificant, the more you touch him, the greater chance you have of being cursed yourself. i knew that day i had more important mission than playing the game, i want you to fight for boys and girls like him around the world. that's what we're trying to do. >> ainsley: that's amazing. your book is excellent. when you were single, number one question is who are you dating. now the number one question is what is our purpose in life? if you do have god, he fills that void. >> i think that's one of the things that we're seeing with so many people in the ukraine right now and the verse that comes to mind is john 16:33 for in me you have peace in, the world you have tribulation. take heart, i have overcome the

world. even in the hard situations, we still know that we can have peace because it doesn't come in our situations. it comes in a person. >> brian: congratulations on the book. go pick it up. >> thank you, guys. appreciate you all. >> steve: that will wrap it up for today. thanks for joining us. >> ainsley: see you tomorrow. >> brian: see you on radio. >> ainsley: we'll hear you on radio. >> there is a lot to get to. thanks for getting to midway point of this week. i'm bill hemmer. >> dana: i'm dana perino. this is "america's newsroom." the ukrainian capital waking up to explosions. you can hear them in the distance here. on air last hour benjamin hall saw a third missile firing off from the middle of the city. take a look. >> look at that. wow. >> what is that? >> bringing you to e
