all comes ahead of a meeting between the gang of 8 and national security adviser jake sullivan at the house. sullivan said this moments ago. >> i'm not in position to say anything further today. like i said i look forward to the discussion with him and obviously we will determine how to proceed. but standing here at the podium today i can't share anything further. >> john: that has cast a whole new tone on the afternoon. john roberts in washington. >> aishah: aishah hasnie in for sandra smith. "america reports". right to chad pergram live on capitol hill what you are hearing, chad, what congressmen and women are saying right now. >> this is rather cryptic. mike turner is making documents available to all members about this serious national security threat. national security adviser jake sullivan offered to speak to top lawmakers tomorrow but is cagey about the threat. >> americans understand that there are a range of threats and challenges in the world that we are dealing with every single day, and those threats and challenges range from terrorism to state actors, and we have to conte

we'll see what happens after the briefing from jake sullivan today.. we look back, he was right, space is the new frontier for our adversaries, coming up with new headquarters for antisatellites to get in the way of american satellites and jam up communication in the u.s. we will see temperature is a risk, major threat, we have a lot of them right now. >> carley: we do. and u.s. military officials have warned russia and china are moving toward -- talking about militarization of space here and if they are targeting satellites from outer space what if they launch from space that could hit the united states or another country on the planet? i was talking to a national security expert that said militarization of space, that is within the realm of possibility and u.s. does not have ability to counter such a weapon. it seems we are behind on this. >> we are, it has not been deployed yet, we don't have anything to match this technology. that is the worry. same situation with regard to china. china has a larger navy than the united states. there are concerns

he and other hostage families have met with national security adviser jake sullivan.t to start off with that meeting that you had with other families and jake sullivan. how do you think that meeting went and did you walk away with any hope that you can get your son home soon? >> yeah, since we met, thank you, aishah, there have been talks in cairo over the last 24 hours. i have to say it sounds like the u.s. is more eager to get a deal than israel. it seems like benjamin netanyahu, the israeli prime minister, is not allowing the negotiations to develop as they could be, and what i think the u.s. should do, the u.s. has at its disposal a toolbox of various options, big time options, to put pressure on all the players, including israel, to sit at the negotiation table, get a deal done. and reminding you, you see this 131, that's the amount of days that u.s. citizens have been held in captivity. and it can't be normalized, like it's not normal for us to sit here and look at that number and say we have eight u.s. hostages being held against their will for such a long time

it's not jake sullivan's statement. that's the statement of administration policy. secretary blinken has laid it out now in full. we do not want to see a circumstance in which israel occupies gaza or where there is an effort to permanently displace palestinian from their homes. >> jake sullivan, thank you for your time this morning. we'll be right back with a lot more "face the nation." stay with us. discover a different first treatment. immunotherapies work with your immune system to attack cancer. but opdivo plus yervoy is the first combination of 2 immunotherapies for adults newly diagnosed with non-small cell lung cancer that has spread, tests positive for pd-l1, and does not have an abnormal egfr or alk gene. opdivo plus yervoy is not chemotherapy, it works differently. it helps your immune system fight cancer in 2 different ways. opdivo and yervoy can cause your immune system to harm healthy parts of your body during and after treatment. these problems can be severe and lead to death. see your doctor right away if you have a cough; chest pain; shortness of bre

jake sullivan, the national security advisor, talking about the aid bill.sullivan talking about the bill that is stalled in the house. >> that includes millions of ukrainians who have been displaced by russia's brutal invasion. it includes conflicts in sudan. this support also includes dealing with the urgent needs of the more than 2 million innocent palestinian civilians in gaza, the vast majority of whom have nothing to do with hamas. we are engaged every day directly and at the highest levels in getting more aid into gaza and once in gaza getting it to the people who need it. in his calls and conversations with regional leaders, the president has worked through these challenges of humanitarian assistance at a concrete level to help overcome obstacles and facilitate a sustained, increased flow of human humanit assistance. we are working around the clock to find a way forward to bring peace, security and dignity. the national security supplemental agreement continues our important investment in the u.s. defense industrial base, supporting jobs across the c

jake sullivan saying the u.s. is going to respond forcefully and clarity, but they do not want to escalate tensions in the region. rather, they are trying to focus on deterrence. fredricka? >> thank you. ben, houthis are promising to respond. what is being said? >> reporter: yes. they have said that they will meet escalation with escalation, that they will continue to target navigation in the red sea and the gulf of aden. in fact, a member of the -- sort of the poll it bureau of the houthis said the u.s./british coalition bombing will not change our position, and we affirm that our military operations against israel will continue until the crimes of genocide in gaza are stopped and the siege of its residents lifted, no matter the sacrifice it cost us. now, it's worth noting that so far, as a result of the houthi's targeting of ships in the red sea and the gulf of aden, four out of five of the world's biggest commercial shipping lines have paused going through there. they're now going all the way around africa, as

. >> shannon: we'll talk with jake sullivan who says additional aid is vital and congresswoman nancy mace says it is a difficult sell to the american people. then -- >> [speaking foreign language] >> crisis at the border. president biden is finally considering executive action to stem the tide of migrants. governors from across the country come to washington to call for urgent action. >> we're all border states now. >> shannon: sit down with oklahoma governor stitt and governor jared polis. plus -- >> i have never seen the republican party so unified as it is right now. >> donald trump wins south carolina primary picking up 50 delegates and handing nikki haley another defeat. >> shannon: all right now on "fox news sunday." >> shannon: hello from fox news in washington. making headlines, u.s. and coalition forces conducted joint strikes in yemen overnight striking weapons and missile storage facilities. houthis have been attacking commercial ships in red sea. in russia, prison officials turn over the body of alexei navalny to his mother saturday, eight days after the 47-year-old died

but it did seem like jake sullivan, the national security adviser was a little bit frustrated that turnerld go public about a threat, period, the day before sullivan is going to go to capitol hill for a prearranged meeting that it seems like is about this. he wouldn't give us an answer one way or the other. but it sounds like it's about this. but, turner had some urgency. there was that vote. it seems like the two things would be related, yeah. >> steve: maybe. >> ainsley: right now, who is able to read those reports since they are so classified? >> peter: turner let everybody in the house -- they had a vote within the intel committee so that anybody who is an elected house member can go look at information about the threat. we don't know how much information about the threat there is. but, considering how quickly stuff started to leak out about this, after the full house got to see it, it would seem that it's just kind of a general description as opposed to showing us, okay, this was our source. this is how we got the information, this is exactly what we think is going to happen. >> stev

speaking of president, white house national security adviser jake sullivan is heading to capitol hillo brief top house lawmakers on what has been referred to as serious threat related to russia. >> brian: sources reveal moscow want to deploy a nuclear weapon in space. >> ainsley: peter doocy is at the white house. >> peter: this could be first real test for u.s. space to stop a weapon in space not to be dropped on the world below, to interfere with critical u.s. satellites. >> this administration has gone further and in more creative, more strategic ways dealt with decla declass declassification. you will not find unwillingness to do so. >> calling on president biden to declassify all information relating to this threat so congress, administration and allies can openly discuss actions necessary to respond to the threat. >> chairman turner brought this forward yesterday, it is something we need to view in a serious manner. thank goodness president trump started -- >> they would be in violation of an outer space treaty. revelation comes as house struggles to pass fisa tool. there is no

we've also heard from jake sullivan. he's a national security adviser. you just heard from him a moment ago. he was speaking directly about these negotiations. here's what he said. >> ultimately, the question of whether those hostages will be released comes down to the negotiation imam israel and hamas, backed by egypt, qatar, and the united states. we believe that the steps that we took on friday, and the subs we took against the houthis last night are not connected to the hostage negotiations. we will continue to press the houthis and egyptians to try to generate a positive effect that so that all these hostages, including the american hostages, get home to their families. >> and, you know, when he says that the strikes against iran- backed groups, iraq, syria, and now in yemen, they're not connected to the hostages, in those negotiations, he's right. but, the reverse is more true. the hostage negotiations, the war in the gaza strip, it is connected to those fights in those places, with those groups. each of those groups, and other groups throughout th

here's why it has national security advisor, jake sullivan. it began with the strikes on friday night, but that is not the end of it. we intend to take additional strikes and additional action to continue to send a clear message that the united states will respond when our forces are attacked or people are killed. at this point, we are still assessing the question of how many casualties there were among the militia groups. and our military will continue to provide the president with those assessments. that was the security advisor, jake sullivan. now after the us strikes on iraq, syria and yemen. what can we expect next i asked for, was there just a professor of international relations at the london school of economics? i'm afraid more of this thing might take is that the european city and miller says will most likely retaliate against us spaces in the welcome syria and the next few days or week. and also it seems to me that i can, i'm british a tax against that was his indiana had sale to the, to the food is from hitting and targeting commerc

here's why has national security advisor jake sullivan to it began with the strikes on friday night, but that is not the end of it. we intend to take additional strikes and additional action to continue to send a clear message that the united states will respond when our forces are attacked or people are killed. at this point, we are still assessing the question of how many casualties there were among the militia groups, and our military will continue to provide the president with those assessments. well as a us national security advisor jake sullivan, speaking earlier today, these latest strikes are the 3rd time that british and american forces have jointly targeted games. who's the rebels, who's attacks, which they say are in solidarity with palestinians and war battered, gaza, have disruptive global trade. let's take a closer look down at the group and their motivation. hundreds of from few supporters on sunday, organize the military parade and solidarity with garza and in protest against the american and british air strikes on the sites. they vowed to continue fighting as long as

when jake sullivan announces the new sanctions, we welcome it. do is happens the question why hasn't the biden administration enforced the current sanctions against russia. cheryl: the wall street journal writes it's time to seize russia's reserves and they say they're promising tough new sanctions, the white house, the test of seriousness, the journal says, is whether president biden is willing to seize russia's sovereign as a et cetera and then transfer them -- assets and then transfer them to ukraine. >> i think that's something that you will see in a republican package that comes to the floor of the house of representatives. i say republican. i hope it will be bipartisan of. four things we would like to see, additional weapons for ukraine, the seizure of russian assets to use those assets to pay for the war in ukraine, what russia has done there, the enforcement of the sanctions, the current sanctions or additional sanctions against russia and then let's not forget that we need our nato and treaty partners to not be buying energy from russia

. >> that's national security adviser jake sullivan responding to criticism of the retaliatory strikes for the drone attacks that killed u.s. troops in jordan. we'll go through that military action in the middle east and what could come next. >>> plus, we'll bring you the details of the long-awaited bipartisan border deal, which is now getting pushback from members on both sides of the aisle. >>> and also ahead, the latest nbc news polling on a biden/trump rematch. the new data is highlighting some of the president's real struggles with voters on some major issues. ♪♪ >>> good morning and welcome to "way too early" on this monday, february 5th. i'm jonathan lemire. thanks for starting your day and week with us. we have a lot to get to this morning, and we'll begin with the developing situation in the middle east where the united states carried out retaliatory air strikes on friday, targeting sites used by iran-backed militias in iraq and syria. nbc news has been able to verify the location of five of those sites. u.s. central command said the attack involved more than 125 precise munit

national security advisor jake sullivan was asked about the matter and confirms that a meeting ofeaders from both parties is scheduled this week including leaders from the house and senate as well as members from the intelligence committees here is more of his reaction.

what we know about the quote serious threat, as national security adviser jake sullivan will be briefingawmakers later today. >> no one is on the same page right now. plus, washington, d.c. carjackings are set to keep pace with a record shattering 2023 numbers. >> it seems like it's mainly kids, like a younger generation has no regard for human life? lawrence spoke with his father who lost his son to carjacking. he will be reporting there all morning long. "fox & friends" starts right now. ♪ a is. >> obviously we begin with a fox news alert. here is a story following all day. three people in custody this morning after a deadly shooting spree at the kansas city chiefs super bowl celebration. >> steve: one person was killed and at least 21 others hurt, including 11 children between the ages of 8 and 16. tmz video capturing the moment gunfire erupted. watch this. [gunfire] >> ainsley: lucas tomlinson is live with what we know now. love cass? >> good morning, steve, ainsley and brian. a total of 22 people are shot, including nine children. one woman was killed a spokeswoman at children's mer

in a moment, our interview with white house national security adviser jake sullivan. but first, let's turn to fox news senior foreign affairs correspondent greg palkot live in kyiv, ukraine, where ceremonies are being held to mark two years since russia's invasion. greg hi, shannon. yeah, russia marked the anniversary as you might expect, firing 18 drones and two missiles overnight right at kyiv and other cities. we heard the sirens most were knocked down, but russia's might is being felt here. more and more. two years ago this weekend, russia's war against ukraine began. after vladimir putin's missiles rained down, tanks rolled in, threatening ukraine from all sides that moment, marked with a ceremony presided over by president zelensky and other western leaders at an airfield outside of kyiv, where ukrainian soldiers faced down and turned back the russians. now with the war turning into a grim and deadly battle of attrition with russia making inroads along a long front line , zelensky praised newly signed security pacts. we haven't had such powerful agreements befor

>> well, i do take issue with a little bit of what jake sullivan said.istened to that interview, it was interesting. we need to make absolutely clear to iran that nothing is off the table. you know, we maintain peace through strength. that was the reagan doctrine. that's what president trump continued and that's what we have to do right now. we should not be appeasing iran. that's what the biden administration has been doing for the last three years. we are projecting weakness on the world stage and frankly, kristen, that is why our adversaries are acting so provocatively. what we are doing now is turning up the heat in iran and we need to decimate the iran central bank and the assets that they held there and we have to lean on international banks to seize the assets of iranian proxies. we need to put big-time pressure and maximum pressure on the oil exports and there's a lot we can do to iran to send a message instead of this appeasing -- >> including strikes, mr. speaker? including strikes, just to be clear? >> it should not be off the table. let me gi

let's bring in the president's national security adviser, jake sullivan. jake, thank you for joining us this morning. just start out. what have our strikes achieved over the last couple of days? is the retaliation done? >> well, george, part of the purpose of the strikes, the central purpose of the strikes has been to take away capabilities from the iranian-backed militias in iraq and syria that are attacking our forces and from the houthis that continue to threaten the red sea shipping. we believe they had good effect in reducing and degrading the capabilities of the militias and of the houthis, and as necessary, we will continue to take action. >> george: so do you expect more retaliation for the strike against u.s. forces in jordan earlier this week? >> well, the first thing that i would say, and you noted it at the top of your program, is that this was the beginning of our response. there will be more steps. some of those steps will be seen. some may not be seen, but there will be more action taken to respond to the death -- the tragic death of the thre

joining us know white house national security advisor jake sullivan.o "fox news sunday." >> thank you for having me. >> restart the grim anniversary two years into the conflict russia's attack on ukraine. the "new york times" does not have an optimistic outlook putting it this way saturday, the forecasts are anything but optimistic the best ukraine can hope for in 2020 for many 2024 n officials and analysts say is to simply hold the line. so what is the argument to congress or the explanation to the american people and of the white house is asking for tens of billions more in aid to ukraine? where the finish line thing is how does this conflict resolve? >> first about let's take a step back. two years ago this month everyone predicted ukraine would fall in a week or two that russia would march into the capitol of ukraine, and wipe it off the map. that did not happen and two years later not only did that not happen not only does kyiv stand but it's taken back half the territory russia occupied in those initial months of the war. so a lot of predictions

guest: i don't think we can be as hopeful as jake sullivan has expressed, sadly.ld love to see a cease-fire. but i think the two objectives that prime minister netanyahu set for himself are totally incompatible. you can't talk on the one hand of your determination to defeat and dismantle hamas who are holding the hostages, and on the other hand, talk about the safe return of the hostages. i have been saying for the past since this war began, these are incompatible objectives. i really don't see how negotiators can achieve a cease-fire in which the hostages can be safely returned to their families. it is very difficult to understand. sumi: for our viewers, jake sullivan, the national security advisor, he was talking over the weekend about how there are broad contours in place for an agreement. the new york times has been reporting today that israeli negotiators are signaling that they could release a group of high profile palestinian prisoners who have lengthy jail terms in exchange for some of israeli hostages. is that a positive sign? guest: that would be a posit

i want to take that into your conversation with national security adviser jake sullivan this morning. i'm wondering if he was able to touch on how can the u.s. avoid further conflict in the middle east if these retaliatory actions are seen as a provocation? >> well, jake and i discussed that extensively, kira. the question is, is this already a wider war? he would not accept that premise, and look, he really emphasized the united states is trying to respond in a calibrated but appropriate way, and in a way that sends a signal to these iranian-backed groups, that the united states is not going to allow its service members and its other outposts to be targeted. so this is about sending a warning to iran, and perhaps one of my most notable exchanges with jake sullivan, kira, i asked if the biden administration has ruled out strokes inside iran. and he effectively didn't say they ruled it out. so that was a headline. it is something to watch. the reason why that's important is because you have lawmakers on capitol hill who are calling for exactly that. republicans who say that the united

. related to space development, asked julia today about this threat to national security, also jake sullivan, the adviser of national security of the united states, asked him if he could definitively answer that americans really have nothing to worry about, if he could reassure american citizens against the background of the news that appeared, so jake sullivan replied that it would be a shame to say yes, at this time he can't do that, but he didn't reveal what it was about, he said that a briefing for the prisoners is planned in the near future. for members of the us congress, i hope we will know more soon. ostap, thank you very much, we will continue to monitor this situation as well, it was my colleague ostap yarysh in contact with the pentagon. the fact that the russian fleet cannot operate in the black sea, as it will be replaced, as it was at the beginning of the war, indicates a fundamental change in the strategic position in the black sea region, as commented in the state department news about the destruction of the russian amphibious assault ship caesar kunikov. according to reports

were dealing with jake sullivan it was being treated as a duty hazard national security issues in the andy's been vice president in the white hand man what it comes to national security and is been wrong idea% of the time when it comes to national security issues, that's an unfortunate statistic when you the national security advisor, it's great that he is coming to the hill, we need someone who is actually going to put up a meaningful deterrence against is very significant threat, very real threat that we have high confidence in and explain to us what the path forward is to make sure were protecting americans. maria: you see this is a bigger threat as a white upper border which is an unknown of his coming unwieldy 19 terrorist to take down the trade center and we don't know is having an upper border, this is a bigger cut than communist china in the goal of overtaking the united states with all of its aggression recently and this is not a new urgency to get congress to sign onto the new money to ukraine. >> absolutely not this has nothing to do with ukraine or bipartisan support in th

on sunday, jake sullivan said he hoped a final agreement could be reached in quote, the coming days. tand from your sources? >> reporter: so, andrea, sullivan said that the broad contours of a deal have now been agreed between israel, the united states, egypt, and qatar. that is promising, but of course, you need agreement from hamas and we have been here before where those four countries have sat around the negotiating table and then there's proof to be very large gaps in between israel and hamas on the other side of that. the political leader of hamas is in qatar today. he's meeting with the amir of qatar. so we may get a sense of hamas' thinking about this framework. there is also an israeli delegation in qatar today. an israeli tells me they are more a technical delegation as opposed to full blown negotiators but an israeli official did say over the weekend that they feel hamas is softening some of its demands but there's still a long way to go before we get to a deal. >> what's the latest on israel's plans to begin a ground invasion in rafah? >> reporter: so, andrea, prime minist

we'll have the latest from the region and we'll hear from white house national security adviser jake sullivan. plus the heads of the house intelligence committee, ohio republican mike turner and connecticut democrat jim headlinehines will be here and we'll talk with general frank mckenzie. unti until region he oversaw u.s. forces in the region. arizona's independent senator kyrsten sinema makes her tase c case for a bipartisan immigration bill. she has all the details of the senate proposal. it's all just ahead on "face the nation." ♪ >>> good morning. welcome to "face the nation." we've got a lot to get to with the escalating tensions in the middle east, but we begin with another challenge facing this country. how to secure the nation's borders and improve our broken immigration system. there is near universal recognition among americans that current immigration process is broken and congress has struggled for years to come up with a solution that will gain enough support to become law. the house has passed a bill that is a nonstarter in the senate, and we spoke with speaker mike johnson abo

of course, you have jake sullivan there earlier, the national security adviser, making it clear that this is not over. they were still ready to take more action against these groups. deterrence is not achieved quickly. it's sort of a longer term effort. they see this as a campaign. they feel they have to push back to protect u.s. troops on the ground and then, of course, in the red sea, to protect commercial shipping which has really been under persistent harassment, lethal campaigns there by the houthis. >> in the light of day and going on these various geographically dispersed targets, it would seem like it was a success. we are getting that 84 of the 85 targets are deemed to be either destroyed or functionally at amethyst. there is the assessment that i have in addition to what you are reporting, dan de luce. thank you so much, we appreciate you a lot. let's go to the white house and aaron gilchrist standing by for us. how was the administration responding to critics who say they don't have a good handle on the unrest in the middle east? >> well, alex, i think that the administrat

we're told, in fact, that president biden directed jake sullivan to brief the gang of eight tomorrow,mong other things that he has directed. in the meantime, though, we are also told this revelation, this news is not directly tied to any of the legislative battles happening simultaneously on capitol hill like the push to fund ukraine. kevin. >> kevin: jacqui heinrich starting the off on the north lawn. the republican majority in the house will soon be even slimmer. democrat tom suozzi won a special election for new york's open seat yesterday. he replaces republican george santos, who, as you probably recall, was expelled. meanwhile house speaker mike johnson faces a decision on whether to bring up for a votes senate's funding bill for ukraine and israel. democrats may resort to an arcane procedural move to force the action. now, all of this is happening against the back drop of concerns about the threat that we just told you about. here is senior congressional correspondent chad pergram. hey, chad. >> kevin, good evening the cryptic new threat underscored questions about passing the i

councilor jake sullivan in the first direct speech. so we have some kind of technical problem, let'ssolve it now and i really hope that we will still listen to mr. jake sullivan in direct speech, because it is very important, well, okay, well, i will say now that he is in this direct he said, so it comes down to elementary arithmetic, we need money to be able to provide weapons to ukraine, but we don't have this money, we... only congress can provide it. such is the reality. that is why the urgency of passing this bill by congress is very important. and that's why it ultimately comes down to a simple decision by one man, speaker johnson. let me remind you, mike johnson is the speaker of the lower house of the american congress, the house of representatives. he simply does not bet draft law on the allocation of additional funding for ukraine, israel and southeast asia. that is, there is support for bukim among the deputies, he does not question. well, in addition to helping ukraine, it is necessary to continue to put pressure on russia. if we already have the opportunity to give direc

i gave the evidence the book and go back to the email jake sullivan. they can go to the defense intelligence agency, document of 2012. they can go to michael fins interview on al 00. they can also go and look at the history of the us dealing oil. they can also go back into 20142015. when iraq, you, oil was being sold at by isis to neighboring countries and to out of the and as well. and the us air force back then was flying over ices positions that may never struck any of those thousands of tankers. it was only when the russians actually entered one of the 1st things that they did was a space truck. there was convoys. the history of the united states and ices is clear as day. and the united states is history with saddam hussein. being an ally of saddam hussein and with the west, giving him chemical weapons that is clear as day as well. all right, the united states always wants to present itself as the protagonist, just like in gaza. okay. and gaza fixed the palestinians. felt history began on october, the 7th and of story. that's not going to solve the

advisor to the president of the united states of america of national security, jake sullivan, in hisuld not interfere in the issue of the possible release of zaluzhnyi. the us government should not interfere in this matter one way or another, so we stay away from these personnel decisions, and of course, it is the sovereign right of ukraine and the right of the president of ukraine to make his personnel decisions. we have made it clear that we are not going to be involved in this particular decision. serhiy kryvonots, major general of the reserve of the armed forces of ukraine, deputy commander of the armed forces of the armed forces of ukraine 16-19 years, joined our broadcast. welcome to our broadcast, thank you that joined good morning, glory to ukraine. glory to the hero, i want to start our conversation with the possible resignation of zaluzhnyi. in your social networks, you published a post in which you supported the mayor. in your opinion, or according to your information, resignation is still planned. and do you know when? is it a blue dream or a green dream of mr. zelenskyi

i get as people of guys that publish side, the us national security advisor jake sullivan says that will be more strikes on iran, lynx targets in metallic ation for 3 american troops killed in jordan. a week ago. it began with the strikes on friday night, but that is not the end of it. we intend to take additional strikes and additional action to continue to send a clear message that the united states will respond when our forces are attacked or people are killed. okay, let's go to rosalind jordan and washington d. c. now, so rosa, on the one hand we've just seen john kind of be on the sunday talk shows that we know of course the to the secretary of state is leaving for his fist journey to, to the region. what message has all of us sending well, essentially, there are a couple of messages coming from the by net ministration. first with the trip of the us, secretary of state antony blinking to the middle east. he's leaving later on sunday is to underscore the us, his desire to see an end to the fighting between israel and of n militants and other of fighting groups. inside garza, as well
