latest? >> todd and carley, the russian air force went to work, striking in the east and west of this country. west about 80 miles from lviv, they hit an air base near the took of lutk, home to the 204th tactical brigade, home to the migs the ukrainian air force has been using to fight against the russians east of the country. they hit dnipro, they hit a kindergarten, an apartment building and a shoe factory. you can see the devastation and fires, we are waiting for confirmation on the number of civilian casualties, it appears inevitable that there are some. in the meantime, the ukrainian forces are fighting back. take a look at this video, this is outside kyiv, line of armored

personnel ambushed by ukrainian forces who say they took out several of those russian vehicles. president zelenskyy of ukraine saying to russian soldiers, go home or face death. listen here. >> you can still save yourself, if you just go home. do not believe your commanders who say you have a chance in ukraine. nothing, but prison and death ark waits you. you are taking our lives and will pay with yours. >> john: we've been talking a lot about the large convoy outside of kyiv to the north. we got new maxar technology satellite images of that overnight. they seem to show, according to u.s. officials that convoy has broken up to some extent, parts moving in different directions, some going to forested areas, it

could portend a move forward toward the center of kyiv. the nearest units are just nine miles or so from the city center and some of the artillery units have moved into firing positions. >> carley: we just got video of the airstrike in lutske, it was an air field, right? that is important, russia is trying to control the airspace and targeting the fields. >> john: yes, that is where the air force mig fighters are based and that presumably is why the russian targetd that air field, about 80 miles from where we are right now. the headquarters of the 204th tactical aviation brigade of the ukrainian air force and migs have been flying out of there

and that would explain why the russians decideed with clear skies to make a real difference for those pilots, they decided to target that particular air field. carley and todd. >> carley: migs have been in the news, poland was trying to get migs to ukraine, the u.s. said it was no go, they were going to use u.s. air base in germany, now the air field was targeted with migs in it. more to come for sure. ukrainian president volodymyr zelenskyy would appreciate all the fighter jets he can get. jonathan, thank you for your reporting. >> carley: heading to romania after meeting with u.s. troops in poland, kamala harris. >> todd: pretty awkward moment on the world stage yesterday. griff. >> griff: kamala harris will wrap up her visit to the eastern

chemical or biological weapons on ukrainian civilians, many believe constitutes red line for nato to act. the white house is not ready to go there. >> press sect. psaki: he is not intending to send u.s. troops to fight in ukraine against russia. how to prevent a world war -- >> griff: this after rejected to transfer fighter jets to ukraine and that is drawing criticism from republican senator cotton. >> tell them to take down the flag and surrender our position, we will never stand up to russia if every time vladamir putin says boo, we back down. >> griff: the senate passed a bill providing aid for ukraine, biden will sign that today and we expect the period to call for end of normal trade relations with russia. >> todd: thank you.

president laughed, did he mention that? it would be traj ed fethis woman won the presidency. a lot of people are watching her and that moment was certainly a huge miss. thank you for joining us this morning. >> joe: thank you. drink more water now, if you don't mind, freshen the palette. >> carley: hail mary to save democrats this november and will the american people buy it? >> gas price hikes are only ark tributable to putin's invasion is nonsense, it is reversal of time. it is what politicians say when they are in trouble, they reach for anything they can get their hands on. something like this is tangible and real in the lives of the american people, doesn't matter what any politician says. >> asking congressman ted budd what he thinks and check in with brian kilmeade on what is coming

it's time for reinvesting in america. >> todd: but biden's message is inconsistent at best. congressman tim budd joins us now. thank you for being here. you just heard that joe biden. joe biden had once said something much different. take a listen. >> where is most of the costs now? the cost is finding gasoline, even though i was able to bring it down 12 cents a gallon, it will come down more, i believe. >> but, kiddo, i want you to just take a look, okay? you don't have to agree. i want you to look in my eyes, i guarantee you, i guarantee you we're going to end fossil fuel and i am not going to cooperate. of. >> todd: i mean, kelm, which biden do we believe? >> the one we are seeing right now you can always reverse engineer aneld and see what his actions are. he is hurting the american people. anything we get in the grocery store, anything that you eat and purchase always comes by truck. that's the way the american

economy works. the fossil fuel economy has given -- has extended lifespans. it has built the economy that we live on. if if you want to go green do it over the fedex 50 to 100 years. don't jam it dorch down everyone's throats it's hurting everyone right now. >> carley: the cost of everything goes up with inflation on top of that. gas prices affect every congressman's constituents and even democrats say they don't want oil from venezuela or saudi arabia. could he reverse course on domestic production. >> he won't reverse course. >> carley: is he not admitting his policies are hurting. >> no. he is shifting putin. putin is absolutely evil and engaged in unjust war against ukraine. that's absolutely wrong of him to do. you can't blame ton him. this goes back to august and we suffered the tragedy of losing 13 bheerns in afghanistan. it was unforced error on the part of biden.
