the president meeting with refugees during his visit today as the world watch withs to see whether he will step foot in ukraine itself. we're talking to a polish mayor whose small town has welcomed nearly 800,000 refugees. ashley show meyer has the latest on the trip. cr. carrie: but we begin with mike tobin live in kyiv. >> reporter: with ukrainian resistance greater than anyone anticipated, the russian military has scaled back its objective. the u.s. says it does not appear to be aggressively pursuing the capital city of kyiv any longer, russian armor seen digging into defensive positions if that area. the defense ministry claims the focus is now on eastern ukraine. >> on the whole, the main objective for the first days of the operation have generally been accomplished. the combat potential of the armed forces of ukraine has been considerably reduced which makes

it possible to focus on the main of efforts of the main goal. >> reporter: we now have video from inside that theater in mariupol that was used as a bomb shelter and took a direct hit from a russian bomb. it is estimated 300 people were killed when a bomb shut that shelter filled mostly with women, children and elderly. the siege has resulted in thousands of civilian casualties and left behind a wasteland. 80-90% of the housing has been destroyed, and with a population of 450,000, 100,000 remain trapped in that city. evacuation process no longer drive into mariupol, people looking to escape do so at their own risk. todd and carley? if carly: mike tobin, really quickly, you mentioned 300 that unfortunately died in that theater attack, and i was also reading that russia's top political party opened an office

in mariupol? does that signify to you any sort of significant victory on their part? >> reporter: it might be an effort to try to claim victory, but mariupol is still very much contested. you have a lot of ukrainian fighters, particularly the azov brigades who are working with the ukrainian national guard, they're still in the center of that town, and they're offering a pocket of resistance, but they are surrounded really on every side by the russians, and they're putting up quite a fight. todd: mike, in light of these comments from the russians that we have achieved our objectives in terms of reducing ukraine's military and the general sense that they are no longer focusing as much on kyiv and focusing more on the east, is there a sense that we're with rounding third base on this? that this war could be in its final days and weeks? or does it seem like we're just going to keep going week after week with, month after month with no end in sight? >> reporter: the statement i heard is it is not the beginning of the end, but the end of the

beginning. colorly, they're transitioning -- clearly, they're transitioning. every indication was they went for the entirety of ukraine, with but now they can say they have demille freezed -- demilitarized ukraine and focused on the east. given the dialogue that came with the initial invasion, they can say all we ever wanted was to liberate the east of the country when, clearly, we saw them go into every part of the country with strikes coming all the way out here to the west. to todd mike tobin, thank you. now to our other top story this morning, in just a few hours president biden set to give a, quote, major address. carley: his administration is in clean-up mold as he and the white house send mixed messages. >> reporter: national security adviser jake sullivan says the president will give a major address today regarding the war in ukraine, this while issuing a stern warning to vladimir putin. listen. >> we are doing contingency

planning for the possibility that russia chooses to strike nato territory. in that context or in any other context. and the president has been about as clear as one can be about his absolute determination to respond decisively alongside the other members of our alliance if russia attacks nato toe. >> reporter: the white house ran interference if after comments were made by the president to u.s. troops in poland. it was in an address about our military saying how ukrainian civilians are stepping up to the fight. take a listen to this. >> young people stand in the middle, in front of a tank saying i'm not leaving. i'm holding my ground. they're incredible. but they take a lot of inspiration from us. this is not hyperbole. you're the finest fighting force in the history of the world. >> reporter: so quickly after a white house official

clarifieded saying, quote, the president has been clear, we are not sending u.s. troops to ukraine, and there is no change in that position. biden has repeatedly ruled out this possibility. but once again, people in the white house aren't on the same page with the president on the messaging on important issues like the use of chemical weapons. here's biden on thursday. >> reporter: would the u.s. or nato respond with military action if he did use chemical weapons? >> we would respond. we would respond if he uses it. the nature of the response would depend on the nature of the use. >> reporter: jake sullivan clarified saying, quote: the united states has no intention of using chemical weapons period, under any circumstances. todd: with that, relate us bring in the mayor of one of the small towns in poland. thank you, sir. how are you handling all of these refugees? reportedly 800,000 in your town alone. your town normally 16,000 people. how are you doing?

if. >> hello, how are you? if -- yes, that is huge for us. not only for local authorities, also local organizations coming to our city to help us through this situation. and i think the main point is how we manage that is because of polish people who comes and are have everything, you know? every day about 1200 volunteers to help, to manage, to do everything that we can for the people. carley: it seems like such a massive undertaking on your part. your town is located about two hours west of lviv, very close to the ukrainian border. is there any concern in your town among residents that either by mistake or on purpose a

russian missile or some sort of strike could hit where you are located? >> you know, we have no time for thinking this way, you know? we have huge work for helping of people, so we don't think about, you know, what happen if a missile, you know, when -- when army, russian army makes a mistake. we just do our job and don't think about what happens in next few days. todd: mayor, what do you want to hear from our president, president biden, today? >> the main point what he should talk about is how to finish the war, you know? we can help all the people as long as they need, you know? but they will come day by day. now we have about 3.5 million refugees from ukraine in europe

and only in poland we have 2.2 million at this moment. we have to stop that war, so that's the main point of the country especially for united states to help ukraine finish the war. carley: when these refugees enter your town, it's likely the first time they've felt safe in a while. what are your conversations with them like? what do they need the most in. >> i know. when we talk with them, they just -- as fast as possible, you know? they don't want to stay in poland. they don't want to stay many in europe countries. they don't looking for differend and want to go back as soon as possible. probably lot of them head back

quick because a lot of cities in ukraine destroyed now. you know, they can stay here, they can stay if european countries, but as long as they need, but to be honest, they want to go back and they want their country. to todd to that point though, mayor, you said they want to go back. how confident are they that they will be able to do so? >> how -- sorry? todd: how confident are they that one day they will get to go back to their native ukraine? >> oh, jeez, i don't know, you know? some of them back, start now, you know? we see some people go to the train and go to leave. and, you know, in our city we have about 2 or 3,000 refugees.

they waiting and want to go back to ukraine. so i don't know. carley: yeah, i'm sure it's different for everybody as this war progressings. wojtek, thank you so much, best of luck. >> thank you very much. carley: a washington state police officer is killed in the line of duty. the shootout happening outside a seattle starbucks. officer dan rocha was shot in the head. the suspect fled the scene in a car running over the officer's body. police arresting the suspect after a 2-mile car chase that ended in a multicar accident after he ran over the fallen officer. authorities identifying the 14-year-old boy who fell to his death at an orlando amusement park ride. his father says his son was freaking out before falling to his death. >> when the ride took off,

that's when -- you know what i'm saying? what's going on? that's when he started freaking out, and he explained it to his friend next door like, man, i don't know, man. if i don't make it down, please tell my mom and daddy i love them. carley: he fell as the ride was plunging down from 400 feet. his father is demanding answers on why his son, who was 6-5 and more than 300 pounds, was allowed to ride on the ride in the first place which is the world's tallest free standing drop tower. to todd wow. -- todd: newly released e-mails between dr. fauci and rochelle walensky show the government did not have data when they came up with their school roping plan last year. -- reopening plans. dr. fauci flag an article citing scientific articles that disputed the need for students to socially distance calling the data outdated. the article also said school

reopenings should have reopened as soon as possible. and there is this, the latest grenell poll shows joe biden's approval ratings underwater again, most trusted by democrats, 52% disapprove showing no sign of a rebound. most surveyed voters blame the president for a continued rise in inflation and gas prices despite biden trying to place all blame on russia's invasion of ukraine. time now, 13 minutes after the hour. a los angeles doctor left ukraine for the u.s. years ago seeking freedom and a better life. now he's donating thousands to the war effort to help save the country he used to call home. carley: and another major revelation from hunter biden's trope of e-mails, this time it involves a bioresearch center in ukraine. we're digging into that with joe concha later, this special

cities like it threatened and destroyed and people suffering just it it breaks my heart. and so i thought that whatever i can do i'd want to do. and so this is part of of what i what i would do. i mean my history is so intertwined with, with giving and with with receiving the help of strangers. and so, you know, when we came here we came from a soviet emigres and high fund organization. it's a wonderful refugee organization, brought us over. and so now i just want to take that gift and give it back to the people that need help. and so i a friend of mine in germany is a physician. she called me and she said we don't have these tactical tickets. we don't have these these lifesaving devices that protect when people are hit by shrapnel can save their lives. europe is completely out of there. anything that you have there in the united states.

so i called the companies that i that i know they use here for medical supplies. i said what do you have? they said, but we have this . and i said, i'll take it all. i'll take all of your your entire national supply of all these things. send it to me and i'll ship it. and thanks to the generosity of a company we use calle kentfield. we were able to ship that over right away and so that felt pretty darn good. and so i started to go find me for more medical supplies and i connect with the organization here called hope to ukraine, hope no to ukraine and we are we just received some amazing, amazing news. the we had a commitment of medical supplies from kaiser, hoague and a few other hospitals here. and i just got news today that allergan, the company that makes botox, is going to let us essentially load up a 747 with medical supplies and send it over on their dime to board to the polish border

to make it. that's all i like to make it just really awesome health. you mentioned the gulf on page. obviously you have this huge plane you've got to fill with supplies. how can our viewers help out your mission? number one , there's the go fund me page that's up here. number two is the hope to ukraine organization that they can contribute to and then they can help out. and there's so many organizations i just want people everybody to get involved. this is a global effort. you i mean this is not just some faraway kind of conflict that that's going on . this is something that touches everybody's lives because it's tyranny versus freedom. this is what what the world has to respond to. and i was born in the ukraine, but today i feel like all of us all over the world, we're all ukrainians. i know. and it's so heartwarming and it's just right on your money when you see people

wearing, you know, the ukrainian pins and in a small show of support, you're doing something much more important a 747 filled with medical supplies is an unbelievable thing. really quickly, how does that medical supplies get in the right hands? i mean, it's going into a war zone, right? so it's going to medical there's a network of ukrainian physicians and a network of humanitarian organizations that have that's established from the polish border where where these supplies flying into throughout ukraine into into kyiv, into into lviv and to anywhere that that's necessary. and so those channels are established and well run. and so we are we're so very fortunate to have given been given this opportunity to provide these supplies. >> i'm very thrilled. dr. rafkin, thank you so much for doing what you're doing. thank you for joining us this morning as well. thanks very much for having us . >> how about that stuff?

focusing on protecting free speech? listen to this . if you can't talk, what do the rest of you rights mean? i mean, can you really practice your faith? and so this is the concern americans have, whether it's big tech, whether it's the cancer culture mob coming after people who don't speak what you know, the woke mob thinks is appropriate. >> this is very scary. and congressman brian steele addressing rising inflation. inflation impacts everybody. who does it hurt the most hurt seniors on fixed incomes and low income workers in particular those who are renting. we're seeing rent costs go up and on top of that it's coupled with gas, with food, with other life rather than republican policies to say we need to build things here in the united states to secure our supply. >> there's also plenty of talk about the crisis at the border. here's house minority leader kevin mccarthy. this border is not secure based upon this president. he's talking about removing title 42 . we are now finding people on the terrorist watch list.

fentanyl knows now the number one killer in america or anyone over the age of 18 to 45 . this is what's happening along this border and it's all not because any law has been changed. >> it's the executive orders. and congressman scott perry says the problems at home are resonating abroad, telling me quote, weakness is provocative and saying president biden's foreign policy senses weakness. it provokes them and encourages adversaries to see how far they can push it. and with all of this on the table, republicans are leaving this conference with a united message and are hoping to take back the majority of the house in november. carly. all right, brooke segment live for us and we move on to this email from hunter biden. his laptop reportedly revealing the president's son had a hand in funding work from a us biolab contractor in ukraine. hutaree a fox news contributor, joe concha. joe , this was originally billed as russian propaganda, but now it's being reported by a number of outlets.

let's go through two of these emails. one the first one says we have three deals to discuss tomorrow . the first is an increase in our investment in medda biota by two hundred and fifty thousand. that is from a gentleman named john deloatch who won hunter biden. and then this is from a ukrainian gas exactly. hunter biden about this pitch ukraine project quote please find a few initial points to be discussed for the purposes of analyzing the potential of this as you called science project. this needs to be pursued by the mainstream media and now will bija of its rhetorical saturday righton. so i don't think that's going to happen outside of the daily mail. the new york post has done great work in this regard. fox news obviously reporting this . these are emails, right? this isn't he said she said or a source close to this person. these are emails to and from hunter biden, as you said, talking about quote a science project. there's more questions and answers right now. but as you asked, yes,

the media should be asking questions when it pertains these business dealings in ukraine as well as china. but unfortunately media outlets are not getting their curiosity back and pursuing this potential story. hunter biden, the modern picasso is the third rail of journalism. it's like he has mopper section as far as coverage from traditional outlets and therefore cannot be touched. so it'll be interesting to see where this goes. but i think the answer to that is probably nowhere. yeah, and we know that hunter biden, you know, sat on the board of marissa and president biden as a vice president got the ukrainian investigating aretha fired, although that he says it was because the guy was corrupt. also joe biden doing business deals with china. and i think it just raises so many question about what this means for now, the sitting president whose family was taking in money from our adversaries. girl, i can only imagine if this was donald trump jr. instead of hunter biden or eric trump when president trump was

in office. do you think the media would get that curiosity gene back again? rhetorical saturday, guys. rhetorical saturday. meantime, the associated press taking heat for saying the gop opposes ketanji brown jackson because she has quote, too much empathy. >> remember this i'm not letting anybody in the senate steal my joy. you faced insults here that were shocking to me. well, actually not shocking. don't worry my sister. don't worry. god has got you. we've got you joe now and i want to read this ap quote to you quote perhaps nothing more dramatically captured jackson's landmark moment than the image of the fifty one year old black judge tears streaming down her cheek. but on the other side of the senate, republicans lining up to oppose the historic nomination are warning that jackson carries too much empathy to the job. you get the sense that the mainstream media is going to attack republicans on this no matter literally what they did just to sort of make this case

that like, look, they're worse than what the democrats did during cavanough even though it is not even close joe . oh , god, karl, i'm old enough to remember the kavanaugh hearings, right. 2018 when the nominee was labeled as an alcoholic and a liar without any evidence to back it up whatsoever. i'm old enough to remember amy quoting buried she was portrayed as a religious extremist, a walking modern day version of the handmaid's tale. i'm old enough to remember nbc news putting julie chetnik on their air. she accused brett kavanaugh being a party to gang and then after the interview had audacity to say that we couldn't verify or confirm any of the claims, nrcc said. but they put her on the air anyway. so that's where we are now. when you compare the coverage of barrett and cavanaugh to what we're seeing now with the current nominee is as night and day as it gets and also profoundly and patently predictable. >> let's talk about the oscars, shall because apparently

the academy awards is going to now disqualify movies that don't have enough black, or disabled actors by twenty twenty four . and you see there is a laundry list now of rules to qualify for the awards like at least 30% of all actors in secondary roles from at least two underrepresented groups have to be included. the film's distribution and finance company must have paid apprenticeships or internships from underrepresented groups. it goes on and on . so this means that no matalan, the one that won best picture last year would have qualified to be nominated. do we care? is this more of the same? what's your take? well, i'm old enough to remember 1998. right. and the oscars that year was hosted by billy crystal and drew 57 million viewers. you know how many people watched last year's show? they couldn't even draw 10 million. so forty seven million people who used to watch this show are gone. and this year we get amy

schumer as a co-host. we thought it was a great idea to have vladimir zelenskyy joined by a video, the middle of him being target number one in an insidious war where the enemy is targeting women and children and citizens are starving in cities like mariupol. right. so the reason why so many people are not watching cali is because the escapism is gone. it's it's about sending a political message, a politically correct message. now checking boxes like you just showed in that graphic instead of just rewarding the best films based on merit, i guess 1998 titanic won basically everything that wouldn't be able to win now because there weren't enough black actors in the film, there weren't enough disabled members and the cast and therefore titanic wouldn't win. that's where we're at now at this point and that's why probably seven million people are going to watch this year 15 million less than they did in nineteen ninety eight , which i believe was junior high school for you, which really makes me think during this segment when our graphics can fit a lot in one graphic. i've never seen a graphic with more words on than

the rules. and to joe , you're old because you remember a lot of things you're old enough to remember of. this is why the patriot awards are the only awards look at how close are fox nation. but this is fox nation. you need to put some real heroes. it's a great idea. yeah, we got to leave it there. thank you for joining us on a saturday. no less old enough to remember karley. bye bye. feeling all right? moving on some news. did you hear about this author? j.k. rowling responds after vladimir putin mentioned her in a speech. putin saying in a speech yesterday, quote, they canceled j.k. rowling just because she didn't satisfy the demands of gender rights. rollings firing back tweeting critiques of western culture, canfell culture are possibly not best made by those currently slaughtering civilians for a crime of resistance or who jailed and poisoned their critics with the hashtag i stand with ukraine. yes, vladimir putin did say that the western world is trying to cancel russia yesterday jigga leave me out.

russia appearing to refocus its offensive to the southeast section of ukraine while halting its ground offensive aimed at capturing cave in the face of heavy resistance. it comes as intelligence reportedly shows moscow has lost 20 battalions. president biden is expected to give a major address in poland this morning as he issues a new warning to russia and cali. as we've been discussing here for a while, it does appear that this war is changing its scope. for weeks we've been reporting on daily conflict and how the focus seems to be on tv. now over the course of the last 48 hours, it does seem that focus does seem to be

shifting more eastward and less focused on the city of keith. do we have mike tobin? that's right. well, let's go to my live from livi mike . apologize for taking most of your hit there, but please take it away, sir. well, with ukrainian resistance greater than anyone anticipated ,the russians are now refocusing their operation with a special focus on the eastern part of ukraine . if you look back to what has happened now, the u.s. has stated that the russians are no longer appearing to pursue kyiv as aggressively, certainly not as aggressively as they were and russian armor has been seen digging into defensive positions in that area around the capital . the russian defense ministry claims now the focus is on eastern ukraine. on the whole, the main objectives of the first stage of the operation have generally been accomplished on the combat potential of the armed forces of ukraine has been considerably reduced, which i emphasize once again makes it

possible to focus on the main efforts to achieve the main goal the liberation of donbas. and we now have video from inside that theater in mariupol that was used as a bomb shelter that took a direct hit from a russian bomb. it's estimated at some 300 people were killed when a bomb hit that shelter filled with mostly with women, children and elderly. the siege on mariupol has resulted in thousands of civilian casualties and left behind a wasteland of scorched earth 80 to 90% of the housing there has been destroyed and with a population four hundred fifty thousand one hundred thousand people remain evacuated in busses no longer make it into mariupol. one local politician says people were evacuating, doing so at their own risk. kaleen my children live for us in lviv. mike , thank you . let's turn to this the minnesota native title we reported on now safely released from russian custody and reunited with his wife and daughter, minnesota senator amy klobuchar confirming jacobs released late

last night. jacob moving to ukraine in january was the only american to board a bus headed toward turkey was taken by russian soldiers at a checkpoint in crimea. he later appeared in a video on russian media and was unable to speak with his family for ten days. jacob's father is going to join us later this morning live on fox and friends to give us an update on his son's rescue. great news there. and developing this morning, shocking news in the music world as we learn foo fighters drummer taylor hawkins has died. hawkins joined the foo fighters in 1997, quickly becoming a fan favorite and close friend of frontman dave grohl. the band was on tour in bogota, colombia when his death was confirmed late last night. his band mates saying in part the foo fighters family is devastated by the tragic and untimely loss of our beloved taylor hawkins, his musical spirit and infectious laughter will live on with all of us forever. no details about hawkins cause of death has been confirmed. he was 50 years old and new york city mayor eric adams

is defending his stance after granting covid vaccine mandate exemptions for local athletes and broadway performers. but no other workers listen to this had nothing to do with external pressures. we had a medical team. this was not unfair. this is the right way. someone believes something was done unfairly. they can go to court and we believe we're on solid ground with my attorney stated i would not have done it without speaking to the attorneys first . adam facing backlash, many saying all new yorkers should be subject to the same burdens and responsibilities. if i'm the mayor, i'm not that confident in the legality of this . but this is also st. peter's peacocks pulling off the upset against three feet to do to continue their incredible march madness to the first state fair

history. this is a true cinderella story, st. peter's clinching that went to become the first ever 15 seed to make the elite eight sixty seven fifty for win sets of a matchup with usc tomorrow night usc beat out ucla bruins so go pick up oh fox on the fourth pick up people loving every second of they're going crazy in jersey city. they've never seen anything like this . i've got to say this is the first thing that i love that i woke up this one i wanted to see who won just because it's such a great story. and really quickly caught on a last story about eric adams. i just want to point out that his campaign did receive one point five million dollars from mets owner steve cohen. no external pressures like you said yesterday. follow the money. i can't think of a situation where i wanted something more to happen but disagreed with it. but obviously i won. but yankees have all their players. but this is a horrible thing. it's so unfair, so good assessment of the situation. forty nine minutes after

the border, officials may enlist the help of the pentagon to deal with the tens of thousands of migrants expected to flock to our southern border in the coming days. we're going to be talking about that and previewing president biden's speech today in poland with army veteran and texas congressional candidate jeremy hunt. wesley hunt excuse me wesley. he's a and it's easy to get a b quote at liberty mutual's outcome so you only pay for what you need. isn't that right? i'm sorry.or one sec. only pay for what you need is a goody goody goody. thanks for having me with you guys today, mr. and mrs. lopez . nottk a problem.ws josh i hey you to check out all josh i hey you to check out all these camera i can see in front of me behind me on either side of me and it has this cam so i can see if there's any funny business goingrs. ew you sees. any funny business

going on ? going on ? i'm not sure it's the chevy silverado offers eight cameras with up to 15 different views. >> find new views, find new roads. chevrolet one is they want cross. my job is to cut through the talking. we're going to ask the tough questions because there's a lot of conventional wisdom out there. what i'm doing is making sure that whatever it's for the day people are fully informed 24/7 . we're going to be fearless. we're going to be fair whether it's going midnight, someone's

after a noisy rally or deplatformed have a lot of guts and you're going to see when you're there, you've been there, you're going to see you're going to see women, young people stand on stand in front of them tank sort the president, their white house forced to make a correction after president biden in that sound bite seemed to suggest that u.s. troops may head to ukraine. joining us now is wesley hines, army veteran and u.s. congressional candidate. and wesley, this is the correction at the white house gave to fox news. the president has been clear we are not sending u.s. troops to ukraine. there is no change in that position. so what do you think about this ? it's always a good thing for the president to visit troops overseas. is there more good than bad here or the opposite? whataboutism was good when the president visited troops overseas, especially with biden being in poland, you know, telling troops that they're

going to go to ukraine. but quite frankly, ma'am, i'm not sure he knows exactly what he's saying or doing to start off with or being honest with you a few weeks ago he was just here in texas. he refused to go to the border ,which is really eroding our credibility across the world. and i agree we don't need to put boots on the ground. but what we need to do to fight putin is unleash american energy, power our country and power our allies and return us back to energy independence. and i'm running for u.s. congress right here in texas, 30th congressional district. and i'm going to tell you being in the energy capital of the world, we understand exactly how important our energy independence is and we've got to get back to that like we had during the trump administration. >> wesley. my concern is on these slip ups. how concerned are you that one of these now daily, sometimes twice a day slip ups by the president is going to get us into real serious trouble at some point every time he opens his mouth, it would be a reminder to the american

people that we have got to take back a house here in twenty twenty two here in november literally. that's why i'm running because right now they control all three chambers. we have got to take one of them back and hopefully the senate as well to at least just stop the bleeding. and again, it's clear that he has deteriorated to a certain extent. we all know this and that's the leader of the free world talking. but the world is watching. the world sees this weakness and this is why we're seeing all this unrest in the world right now. >> you know, leslie, you brought up the energy element in this and yesterday president biden announced that the united states is going to send 15 billion cubic meters of liquefied natural gas this year to europe and then we find out that may be a little bit more symbolic because you need both the united states and europe needs to build the facilities in order to take in this liquefied natural gas. but it does also signal that the president is at least willing to take a leadership role on energy and , you know, sending europe more energy. how do you read that?

were you happy to hear that announcement argue to a certain extent. but actually now we're talking about drilling in venezuela and we're talking about taking oil from from iran and we're sitting on the permian basin right here in texas. so why don't we just start drilling here and not there while we open ♪ todd: supreme court now limiting deployment of unvaccinated service members, it applies to service members who refuse the shots on religious grounds. this order is temporary until fully litigated. this lawsuit was brought forward by service members in the navy where 2403 were discharged -- 240 were discharged.

a. carley: a doctor has sent over 60 pounds of tactical attorney gets. dr. alexander rivkin joins us now. tell us your story ask and more about what you're doing to help out. >> good morning. hank so much for having me me on, it's really a pleasure. this war is personal. i'm from odesa is. it's a beautiful port city on it's a beautiful port city on the black seaan armytonda faraway h,brene>> tojasa r oil for the 12-15 months. why did it take until yesterday with for this administration to say, huh, you know, after a month of carnage in ukraine we've gotted to doing something now? >> because they have of no idea what they're doing, let's just be blunt about that. i mean, energy independence is an issue of national security. we see these ballooning gas prices, issues hour -- with our supply chain, these are indicats flat out incompetent, and the world is watching. again, the only thing we really need to do is unleash our energy machine right here in the united states, and that should shut down putin immediately. it can restore credibility in our world immediately. but now they're reacting because they have no idea how the world works it's actually pretty sad because joe biden's been in office in different capacities for the past 50 years. he should have seen this coming. carley: just to tap into your military experience, the big news this morning regarding the war in ukraine is that russia issued fictitious report saying

they completed their main task of capturing the donbas region. how do you read that, and where does that leave us in terms of the future of this war? could things be wrapping up? >> potentially. but we in this country, again, we need to return back to our energy independence, give the ukrainian government exactly what they need to effectively fight this war against putin. we don't need to put boots on the ground. it has been a joy to watch the ukrainian people step up for their freedom and defend their own rights. i hope america is watching them because with, let me tell you something, our rights and freedoms are under attack right here in our own country. but there's potential that this could wrap up very quickly because of the ability of the ukrainian people who recognize that when they are being bullied, we're going to step up for our own rights. todd: on a different topic, border officials asking the pentagon to help with the oncoming mass migration surge at our southern border. wesley, will joe biden send in

our troops? [laughter] >> my guess is probably not. if you think about what's happening with title 42 that was implemented by the trump administration, that's been a complete joke urn biden because we've had -- under biden because we've had over 3 million illegal immigrants somewhere this country with no -- enter this country with no vaccines, no tests, and we are implementing more rules, laws and on our legal citizens. this guy has a track record of not doing the right thing, and he's relying on political expediency from the party, what it means to protect us right here in this country. the number one role for the federal government is to protect her citizens, and he's flat out not doing it. we've lost credibility on our local stage because if we have a porous border, how can we possibly lead the world? carley: and, jeremy, i think a lot of americans would agree with you because there is a poll that shows just 34% of americans

approve of president biden, and most voters do blame him for inflation and gas prices. the president has repeat ifly said this is not -- repeatedly said this is not my fault, this is vladimir putin's and his war in ukraine, that's why gas prices are so high. the american people are reading in between the lines. they know what's going on, and they're looking to the president for leadership. what can he do with a 34% approval rating to get this number up? >> what can he do? he can actually lose the house which is exactly what's getting ready to happen. 31, the democrats are going to have 31 retirements and counting because they know the red wave is coming. the american people are not stupid. we know exactly where we were before covid, we know exactly what policies got us moving forward. we know exactly what it meant to have low unemployment, we had lower taxes, we had safety at our border. it took 16 months, and it evaporated just like that. we're seeing it, we're watching

it, and i can guarantee you in november you are going to hear the dc r -- todd: that is quite possibly the greatst jacket withive ever seen. [laughter] carley: you look great. >> oh, thank you so much. carley: good to be with you on this saturday morning. "fox & friends" starts right now. pete: president biden will begin the final day of his emergency trip to europe today, a major address from poland. rachel: russia appears to be shifting its military strategy in its war on ukraine. the red army now focusing its efforts on the eastern donbas >> reporter: good morning.
