door last night and they let me in. they reduced the size, they said, if you're older than 25 years old, we're not going to open the doors because this is a college campus, we want gen z here. they are adjusting and last night will be tomorrow, they don't have infrastructure to keep up with the crowd, they had to bring in port-a-potties, they don't have the infrastructure to withstand the crowd. been cool to witness this and other universities are following suit. >> steve: you're talking to kids who are part of the revival in a couple minutes. it is four minutes after 2:00 in poland and fox news alert, we are waiting, as you look at the royal palace for president joe biden's meeting with the allies on nato eastern flank, which is set to begin any minute in

u.s. of bad behavior, the chinese foreign minister is saying, "the u.s. should seriously reflect on what it has done, stop fanning the flames and stay committed to promoting peace talks as china has been doing," and putin has accusations for the u.s., as well, and tries to reason he's right to pull out of the new start nuclear arms control treaty. >> what's important is that our relations have degraded, the responsibility for that is fully on the united states. they can't be silly people, they want to deliver us a defeat while crawling into our nuclear objectives. i have to say russia pulls out of the new start treaty. >> russia's house of parliament ratified that, but about the nuclear deal pull out, the house

armed services says all options must be on the table, including deploying additional forces and increasing readiness of our modern triad and nuclear systems. president biden posture is that putin will not succeed no matter which super power is helping him. >> president biden: a dictator, wanting to rebuild an empire will never be able to ease the people's love of liberty. brutality will never grind down the will of the free and uk ukraine, ukraine will never be a victory for russia. >> there are new reports this morning that putin response to biden secret trip into ukraine was a hyper sonic missile test that failed. we've reached out to national security officials that are traveling with the president and are waiting to hear back from them, back to you.

>> steve: are you saying they shot off russ kwla shot off a hyper sonic missile that we can't stop while perhaps joe biden was in ukraine? >> there is reporting that the timing in imprecise, there is reporting that would be seen as putin's response, if they're having a tit-for-tat, that is how putin would flex his muscle after biden dropped into ukraine so last minute. >> steve: that would be provocative. thanks, peter. >> brian: the president will be heading home soon and rough estimates are over the last year rusians had 200,000 casualties, 60,000 dead. they don't pick up their bodies, they just send them to a wood chipper of a sense. expose vulnerability.

degree and the president is not calling anybody out. >> steve: joe biden made it clear yesterday that we are in it in a big way financially, the latest poll regarding the american public and ukraine was done by ap, only 26% of americans say that we should have a major role, only 17% of republicans say we should have a major role. something like -- let's see, democrats, about 40%, more democrats than republicans say we should have a major role. the president made it very clear yesterday, we've got a major role. douglas murray was with us and had this observation about the president meeting with the allies here in about 10 minutes. >> these are the countries, they all know these are countries that are fearful, they are american allies, they are

members of nato, they are countries who always fear and i think correctly, that if putin's invasion of ukraine was successful, they would be next. they knew that his ambitions would not stop at the border of ukraine, putin believes there are larger territorial desires. these are countries most desiring of american help. >> steve: ainsley. >> ainsley: mike pence was interviewed last night on hannity's show and he said, i've looked putin in the eye and if you think he's going to stop if he captures ukraine, you have another thing coming. the meeting with bucharest nine today, they are concerned about that, but victory has been slow and hasn't been victory for russia. this started a year ago, we

thought my goodness, russia will take over more and more and you're right, the ukrainians fought back and showed strength and made russia look weak. when you look at russia, putin has done scary things, talk about nuclear war and testing missiles is very scary, his military hasn't looked as strong as we thought a year ago. over to ashley with headlines for us. >> ashley: fox weather alert, 400 flights cancelled at minneapolis airport. minnesota governor declaring peace-time emergency as blizzard conditions hit his state. 60 million americans under winter storm advisories because of coast to coast storms stretching from new york to washington state, frightening near miss captured on video as officials prepare the road for the brutal storm and out west 100,000 people in california

>> brian: entrepreneur, author, vivek ramaswamy announcing his run for president for 2024. former president donald trump and former south carolina u.s. ambassador to the united

nations, nikki haley, so far. vivek ramaswamy, where are you? >> in rochester, new hampshire at potter's bakery kicking this off. we kicked off last night and getting it started. >> brian: you watched you with tucker. you said instead of thinking about it, i'm going to do it. >> for me, i've tried to deliver market solution, written books and it is important to see the problem with clear eyes, problems like wokeness and climatism. we need to go upstream and solve the problem, we're in the middle of this national identity crisis. ask most people my age or any age, what does it mean to be american? you get a blank stare in response and i'm on a mission to deliver an answer to that question. as much as i've been complaining about woke culture and identifying that problem, the way we solve it, is by delivering national identity so

powerful it dilutes woke agendas to irrelevance. people are competing on biographies, it would be important about the what and why instead of the question of the who. that is what i think 2023 should be about and 2024, the voters get to decide who can carry that agenda forward. >> brian: the success you have achieved through your own initiative so young. >> well, for me, it is personal to me, i grew up in the '90s, kid of first generation immigrants, with nerdy glasses and funny last name. my parents taught me, if you are going to stand out, you might as well be outstanding. achievement was my ticket to get ahead and reviving meritocracy is important to me. putting merit back into america, my dream was possible.

i found multi billion dollar companies and written best-selling books and lived the full arc of the american dream. the scary part and i mean this, if i had been born 20 years later, i don't think my story would have been possible, not in the same way, that worries me and the reason i'm running for president is to revive that new american dream for the next generation of americans around the basic principles like merit and freedom. >> brian: that is laying out what you are going to do. if you were president right now, huge problem, there is derailment and toxic chemicals in east palestine, the former president of the united states will be there today, secretary of transportation says i'll get there eventually when the time is right. where do you stand? >> the fact biden went to ukraine before going to ohio and before pete buttigieg went tells you all you need to know. we don't need ukraine first in this country, we need america

first. i applaud president biden for going to my home state today. to put america first, we need to rediscover what america is. if we can redefine and rediscover what america is, we put america first. what i'm pursuing is america first 2.0 agenda, seeing the problem and addressing it. the fact that washington, d.c. and new york view ohio the way they do, the people of ohio know that and there is reason they don't trust the people in charge, they haven't been given a reason to trust them. >> brian: if you become president, make sure the trains stay on the tracks, that seems to be an issue. a lot of people think about doing things, you are doing it. best of luck on the big move. good luck in new hampshire. fox news alert, here we go, we are keeping our eyes on poland, president joe biden will soon meet with leaders from the

>> brian: fox news alert, president joe biden is leaving his hotel in warsaw, poland. he is heading to meet with leaders from the bucharest nine, eastern european leaders, we'll bring you that meeting live as we see it and he gets out and joins it. >> steve: until then, they are back-to-back college football champions, but for the second year in a row, the comba ga bulldogs were not getting an invitation to appear at the white house. >> ainsley: the bulldogs defensive lineman, warren benson, tweeting biden saying, no invite to the white house is crazy. >> brian: outkick founder clay travis is joining us, two democratic senators, beat hershel walker this time, he won it, what is going on? >> clay: it is totally nonsensical and for people who

haven't been keeping tabs, georgia bulldogs won back-to-back college championships in college football and according to this tweet, have not received an invite to go visit joe biden's white house yet. here is my bet, as soon as we share this clip on social media, i'll bet somebody at the white house will get alarm bells going on, wait a minute, this is a state joe biden won in 2020 and joe biden thinks he needs to win again in 2024, the two most popular things in the state of georgia, by far, are the georgia bulldogs and the atlanta braves and i don't know if the braves have visited the white house. i'm not an expert on that, my kids are fans. they have got to get the georgia bulldogs into the white house. this is crazy to me, no idea what the biden administration could be thinking on many things, this one in particular,

maybe mayor pete is in charge and he doesn't seem to get anything else right. >> steve: are you suggesting somebody at the white house, how do you miss the win if you're at the white house? it's big news. is it nobody is a sports fan? >> clay: back-to-back years. >> steve: or the fact sports has become political to this white house? >> clay: even if sports were political to this white house, which is billion percent true, they have made, democrats have, much of sports political. how in the world would you miss the fact this is in a toss-upstate. if alabama crimson tide win the championship, which they have done a lot. >> steve: okay, clay. >> clay: you will not be competitive in alabama, they get overlooked. this boggles my mind to be frank. >> brian: right. >> ainsley: it could be because the champion player, who was the heisman trophy winner, ran for

senate in that state. who knows though. >> clay: that is a good point, that might be the reason they didn't want to give attention to hershel walker by bringing in the georgia bulldogs, even though he played 40 years ago. >> brian: we'll find out more on outkick.com, clay travis, we'll listen all day. >> steve: fox news alert, president biden has arrived at the presidential palace in warsaw, poland and will meet with leaders from the bucharest nine. we will bring you there live if he has anything to say. >> brian: first, jewel has a lot to say, making it her mission to help others, she'll share details about her newest venture and this is her singing. what the? good morning hallow makes it easy to build a daily habit about her newest venture and this is her singing. share deta about her newest venture and this is her singing. share deta about her newest venture and this is her singing. share deta about her newest venture and

feeling the same at the time. what you are seeing president biden do, he is meeting with the bucharest nine and these are countries next on the hit list for russia. romania and poland, this is the older part of europe, not germany and france, and trying to make assurances. my concern is he's talking to allies, which is good, but not talking to putin. he needs to pick up the phone and talk to putin, this war can be brought to a conclusion, as long as we give them proper equipment, which we have not done. we've talked about it, promised it, it is not there yet and needs to be brought to a close this year. i believe there will be significant offenses by the ukrainians and russians in the spring and summer months. biden needs to pick up the phone and call him, he talks over the news network.

he needs to tell him how this will work and end and part is defeating strategic adversary and that is good for america. taking strategic adversary, russians, allow us to pivot to the chinese, our growing adversary and where we need to look. >> steve: that is what the white house is concerned about, that growing alliance between china and russia. general, if our president picked up the phone, that would be fantastic, what he is going to do today with bucharest nine, talk about more sanctions. a year ago we thought sanctions were going to bring russia to his knees, he is selling as much oil and gas as he was before. >> look, people think sanctions are going to work in the short term and they never do. here is what happened, in 2014, putin took crimea, we put sanctions on him. he's learned a lesson and built up a huge reserve, billions and

billions of dollars, he knew sanctions would come back. sanctions are not hurting him. they are making a lot of money with gas and oil right now and turn to the chinese. we can do sanctions, we need to take forceful action, we the united states, and help the ukrainians win this fight. they can win it, they are in good posture right now and it will change the face of europe for the next generation. if that happens, then we can back away from nato meaning amount of money we're spending and put that money back in the united states, where it should go, or into the pacific, where it also should go. there is great both sea and air war looming, it is not a ground war, we're not marching to beijing, huge fight on the seas and in the air. we need to do that, he talks a great game, he hasn't played a good game. >> ainsley: what are your

predictions for ukraine, general? do you think the ukrainians will fight back enough where russia will withdraw? what happens? what does the future look like? >> great question and has to be defined end state, president biden has not gone in front of the american people and given them an end state. that is when you tell putin, we will provide ukraine all the armorment it needs, missiles or ground support, everything it takes to push the russian army out of ukraine in total. we give option to putin, say it clearly, either withdraw the army voluntarily or we'll help ukrainians push you out. it is up to you. ukrainians are fighting well, they have been able to contain this fight, regained about 40% of land lost in the initial invasion. americans need to understand, we have not committed american troops on the ground.

i took a trip to ukraine a couple weeks ago, there was not a single ukrainians, military or civilian side, want americans there. they said, give us a kit and we'll fight, this is a fight to the finish, they do not want to negotiate at all. >> brian: it is clear, russians are creating a coup in the country, russia can't handle ukraine, little chance them trying to take back other eastern european nations, he is right or wrong? >> i question that statement, because if we let them move forward, he'll continue to fight. russians have mass, thatten moos people and equipment and they can generate that. we need to stop them there. the russian bear is still a dangerous bear, we need to understand that, it is backed by nuclear weapons, backed by, we

can't let them off the line, we have to keep pushing them back. when you say that, that is dangerous way of looking at it, never discount russian ability to fight, they proved that in world war quite well. >> steve: latest public opinion polls in united states, majority of -- only 26% say the united states should have a major role, right now we have a major role. what do you say to the 74% that say something else? >> well, i wouldn't direct it to 74%, i direct to the president of the united states, i have done a lousy job presenting this to the american people and told them why ukraine is in the best interest of america. if you defeat a strategic adversary, russia, thattic tas them out of the way, like in world war ii, between germany and japan, we went after

germany, took them off the table and focused everything back on japan, that is what we need to do. you never want to fight two enemies at the same time, this is wonderful opportunity to change the face of europe, degrade russia capability, take that adversary off the table. especially when we're not committing american troops, circling back to what you just said, this is up to president biden, he's not gone in front of the american people, he needs to do it and provide equipment to ukraine. he's playing good game in the mouth, not in force. >> steve: okay. thank you very much. >> ainsley: national security adviceor to vice president pence, thank you, gentlemen of the jury, too. >> brian: back in a moment, more "fox and friends," we'll monitor everything. a medicine specifically made for heart failure. entresto is the #1 heart

>> brian: the president of the united states with closing remarks on four-day whirlwind tour, very consequential over the next year, we'll be in this fight. >> steve: ainsley, see you back in new york tomorrow. >> ainsley: i will, heading back home right after this. thank you. >> thanks, good morning, deepening divide over ukraine, meeting with allies in poland, top diplomat in moscow for a face-to-face with putin. world powers are getting together and grabbing respective corners. i'm bill hemmer. >> i'm dana perino, the president just wrapped up opening comments and we'll continue to follow that and get you any news, china top diplomat meeting with president putin since invasion of ukraine, an
