i'm jim sciutto, and this morning an unprecedented visit to the war zone. president biden made a trip to k kyiv to show support for ukraine without a large military presence. without that military presence, of course, it is different from other presidential visits to afghanistan or iraq for instance, and the air raid sirens as biden is walking side by side with volodymyr zelenskyy and it is the first trip to the country since the russian invasion. he made the decision friday to make this visit to ukraine, and the president had invited him prior, and he was informed hours ahead of the arrival there which tended to deconflict to make sure that russia would not fire on kyiv while he was there. in a news conference this morning, there was a new round of sanctions including another $500 million assistance and more weapons, and biden's trip gets them closer to victory. >> freedom is priceless. it is worth fighting for, for as long as it takes, and that is how long we will be with you, mr. president, for as long as it takes. >> for as long as it takes. kaitlan collins is in warsa

. >>, jim did joe biden set a trap that the republicans just fell into?o be honest. i think you're democrats saying no no no as president biden started debating them, at the state of the union. i don't think that was part of the plan. i do think that the republicans walked into this themselves. and rick scott, really, to not be polite and to name the person the law came into this trap. because as we have seen in many weeks, a lot of republicans have proposed changing social security and medicare. as -- pointed out this was the position of the party before donald trump camera. it was ron desantis's position before and there are some reasonable reasons to think that there might need to be some reforms, to make sure we can shore up social security and medicare. now. to be in this position of biden pointed out that work scott wants to cut, it and everyone else has to scramble, i think it's worked out well for the president, intentional or. not >> to, miller -- good to see. you thank you very much. coming up next, the latest from canada on the third objects sh

biden family. >> sandra: you saw jim jordan, he tweeted this, hunter biden admitted his laptop belonged to him. how can that be, he asks? 51 intelligence officials in quotation told us it was misinformation. so how have we gotten to this -- do this point, miranda? >> well, a lot of lies, i guess, in powerful positions. joe biden himself before the 2020 election and the last debate he had with donald trump dismissed the laptop as a russian plant, and he cited that letter, that dishonest letter written by 51 former high level intelligence officials, including five former cia directors or acting directors. and said the russian -- that the laptop was, had all the ear marks of a russian information operation. they seem to think there's something different between saying it was russian disinformation, that's not how it was read by anybody, and it was not how the letter was intended to be read. it was intended to be used by joe biden who had to get up on the debate stage to answer what we had published in our first story that was censored on the say-so of the fbi by big tech, by twitter. they were ter

>> reporter: well, jim, president biden and canadian prime minister took that incredibly rare step today and jointly authorized the shooting down of that unidentified object over northern canada. this marks the third time in just the last week where the u.s. has had to shoot down an aerial object over north america. just to walk you through a bit of what we've learned this evening about how they've been tracking this latest object. according to the pentagon, norad first detected this latest unidentified, unmanned object over alaska on friday evening as they monitored it and tracked where it was going. it did cross into canadian airspace. at some point today, president biden and canadian prime minister justin trudeau both spoke, they had both been monitoring the situation for the last 24 hours. and they ultimately decided out of abundance of caution they wanted to follow the advice of their merl leader and authorize the shooting down of this object. at this point once this operation was under way it was ultimately an american f-22 fighter jet that shot down this unidentified object over c

the fact that jim jordan is lending his voice, a good idea, some progressive sources say it shows just how quickly the biden administration should reverse course here. nevertheless, it doesn't change the fact that jim jordan is continuing to say that the head of the department of homeland security, alejandro mayorkas, jordan echoing that he thinks mayorkas has done impeachable things with what he calls a dereliction of duty. he didn't go into detail, what he thinks is impeachable, but it's a sign of what we could see over the next few months as the republican majority tries to flex its muscle, trying to call witnesses before them, but also in potentially pursuing impeachment charges against key figurings in the biden administration. >> allie vitale, thank you for that. >>> a brand new maris poll shows half of democrats think their party has the best chance of winning the next presidential election with joe biden at the top of the ticket. that is up 12 points in three months. things aren't so rosy for former president trump. 54% of republicans now say the gop has a better chance in 2024 with someone else as

as you know, i got 10%, it doesn't say biden, it says jim and then it says 10% is for the big guy. big guy is joe biden. how did the ukrainian prosecutor's investigation look like? joe biden calls president poroshenko and pressures him to change the prosecutor. i said that i would leave in 6 hours, if your attorney general is not fired, you will not receive money, a reliable person was put in his place. the most surprising thing is that the facts of corruption surfaced during the presidential race, which is no reason for a shameful withdrawal from the race, but the newspapers were silenced, and the information was deleted from social networks under the pretext of proof of this appeared on dec. 3, 2022, when elon musk posted letters from influential democrats to the leadership of twitter, in which they urged to remove messages about corruption in the biden family. one head of twitter wrote to another for consideration from the team, the answer was processed. in washington, the elite put out the scandal as best they could. the mission was too important for biden, but biden did not hid

hampshire, which would lose its spot in first place, there is no question where biden stands on this issue. he brought jimrce one. biden's outgoing chief of staff has indicated the president will run again and said this week he looks forward to being at biden's side when he runs, not if he runs. so, seems like we might be getting closer to an announcement, somewhat tagged around the date of the state of the union. the documents probe front and center in the news lately amid congressional investigations and also the federal probe into biden's son hunter and his taxes. yesterday hunter's lawyers released letters accusing trump allies of illegally obtaining hunter's personal computer data from his laptop and weaponizing it for political purposes. the attorneys told fox in a statement that does not amount to an admission that the laptop belonged to hunter. they say these letters do not confirm mac isaac's or other versions of a so-called laptop, address seeking, manipulating and disseminating mr. biden's personal data wherever they claim to have gotten it. they say the laptop story was a russian plant and pro

clarification olah jumbaiden, as you know, got 10%, it doesn't say biden, it says jim and then it saysbe for the big guy. i'm 1,000% sure that joe biden is the big guy. investigation ukrainian prosecutor calls president poroshenko and puts pressure on him demanding to change the prosecutor. i said, that i'll leave in 6 hours if your attorney general doesn't fire the money. one twitter executive wrote to another while she was still reviewing from the biden team and the response was processed. the washington elite put out the scandal, as much as it could too important mission, lay on biden, but biden did not hide the fact that he was going to the white house in order to get donald trump out of there, and he did it. with this task, burisma corruption is not the only one of the dark affairs of the biden family, british journalists conducted their own investigation. emails from laptop hunter is shown to have helped secure millions of dollars of funding for a metabiota company to a us department of defense contractor who is the same metabiota that does research on deadly infections lan biden
