>> president biden gets in and shuts down keystone xl.because of joe biden's signs they put an arrow up to the bas price. people know what is going on. >> sean: we could have $7 a gallon gasoline. i remember in a debate, donald trump predicted that might happen. >> he did. >> tucker: the west reliance on russian oil and biden's massive energy failures right here in america. this is now created a perfect storm. we have a 40 year high of inflation. here's donald trump back in 202 will be $6, $7 a gallon. >> you like that $2 gas. er how about $5, $ 6, $7, let's sell the car. it's too large. get a compact. biden's plan is an economic death sentence. >> sean: a guy who knows a thing about energy, oil, texas governor greg abbott. i don't think the president could have been anymore right, governor? >> governor abbott: he was spot on. i'm coming to you tonight from san patricio county on the gulf coast right next to corpus christi. through this county runs a lot of natural gas pipelines that connect to an shadir-lng facility. presumptuous opened

caller: i think the keystone pipeline was one of my points. i think if they would just take off the restrictions and let us drill here at home. people on the left dance around that. i do feel that would help a lot. it was a subject before joe biden got in. when he signed the executive orders to stop that, right away, stuff started going up. we are restrained that way. i feel if the administration would take off the restrictions and let us drill here and quit being held hostage by a few on the left, it would help us, the people. just a comment. thanks for letting me talk. guest: thanks for the comment. it is an important point. my sense is that by far the largest factor in determining the outlook for u.s. oil and gas production is market forces and prices more than government regulation. we saw u.s. oil production collapse from 13 million barrels a day to 10 million barrels a day when president trump was in office. not because of anything he did, but because the u.s. oil production despite what you are you were just saying about president biden

do we restart the keystone pipeline?tics become not more harmonious but i'll be able to understand the political kneecap we dug in the u.s. politics today needs to be shelled. we need to focus on these types of challenges. china, i'm struck by two things. at the russian arma army can't find at night. unbelievable. when you thing about it. the judges question which i thought it was as good as anyone here. they are fighting forces they are not occupation forces. as much as we may want to say things about the u.s. military, we have all of these capacities. and one thing i think that the russian people are looking at if we sent troops to our nato pals because of article five is invoked. you will have the greatest, the best, the most technologically adequate putting force on the ground if that has to happen. i hope it doesn't but if it has to happen the world saying it should be put on notice including china. >> jeanine: that if he put together that fighting force that is the best in the world is to listen. china was her own

cancelled the keystone pipeline and approve the nord stream-2 pipeline.was not prioritizing american businesses and families. this is what you get when you are a weak president. a president who made the wrong decisions on foreign policies for over 4 years. i served on the armed forces committee when i was in congress. i am clear on what it means to have peace through strength. joe biden doesn't understand that becausy he's never once shown strength making decisions to protect this country. >> sean: the whole list, i know your people in your great state like south dakota. a 40 year inflation high because everything costs more. costs more to fill up your tank and every store you go to you pay more. joe biden blocked the keystone pipeline and gave putin a waiver with the nord stream-2 pipeline and put new drilling efforts in alaska on a permanent hold and suspended new exploration on federal lands and lifted sanctions for putin. how does that make any sense from a geo-political standpoint? >> it feels planned to me, sean. there is no way he could get all of

>> brian: geo politic system about leverage, canceling keystone gave putin all the leverage.s it, that is why he's doing what he is doing right now. we don't have that to be in situation. look at europe, that is us in the future in we go down the road of foolish energy policy, let's not do this, pipeline, production, we have ability to do it cleaner than anyone else, todd, we ought to start now. >> todd: guess on what the markets do today? >> brian: markets are saying they don't think interest rates gallon up and i don't think the sanctions will get that bad. i don't expect a lot of turn in the market. if the invasion gets worse and oil and gas gets threatened, all bets off. right now, we are not seeing that. >> todd: great insight. over to you. >> carley: we took you live to lviv, ukraine, air raid sirens started wailing and now russian forces are closing in on the capital of kyiv. live with the latest on the ground, do not go anywhere, we'll talk about the republican push to restore american energy independence with doug collins live from cpac. as a professional bull-rider

it should be a restart to the keystone, a reversal of those policies. when you're dealing with russia, they talk about the need for sanctions. for us to an act export controls, to have nato move to a point where they step in. report that volodymyr zelenskyy and the ukrainian people are seeing, you are seeing wide support from democrats and republicans for the ukrainian people. i talked earlier today with a former infrastructure minister in ukraine. he made certain his family was safe and took up arms to fight the russians and was ready to do so, the resolve of freedom fighters we are seeing is inspirational and i think today we all stand with them and are searching for the best way to support them and achieve their victory. eric: the infrastructure minister leaving his family to pick up a rifle. what do you think of the inspiration from him? what we have seen from volodymyr zelenskyy. >> he's doing this for his family. he was delightful to join me on my facebook tv show. he talked about the resolve. how they have formed this army of civilians protecting

for the keystone xl p.line would have created tens of thousands of jobs and ensure a stable supply of nearly 800,000 barrels per day of crude oil from our closest ally into trading partner in canada, my neighbor. if president biden hadn't revoked the keystone pipeline but allow the u.s. to produce more gasoline and diesel which would help us reduce imports from the middle east and russia and unbelievably especially in light of the fact that secretary granholm is a former governor of michigan. it delivers the majority of michigan and regions and other essential fuels for heating, agriculture and manufacturing. political whims should not decide whether michiganders can heed to their homes or not. so i've introduced the protecting international pipelines for energy security pipes act which would prevent president biden from putatively shutting down existing energy pipelines like line five without a congressional approval. deputy secretary, welcome. thank you for being here. do you support the construction of p

keystone pipeline. keystone pipeline and excel pipeline are two different pipelines.xcel pipeline that was shut down had 4 million barrels per day because i do my homework on this. right now, there are 230 in wells. we have 635 oil wells running. in north america, there are 850 oil wells. i do not know why everybody keeps saying about the keystone pipeline being shut down. the excel pipeline was never built in the united states. canada up their production -- upped their production to run the keystone pipeline through the west coast. host: on the west coast of canada, correct? caller: and the united states. in washington. host: thanks for the call. diana? guest: there are several hundred thousands of barrels today that could have been brought through the keystone xl five line. two refineries would have created jobs for refiners and allowed a bigger flow of heating oil and gasoline in the united states. what was the second part of the question? the rigs. if you look at the energy information administration data, the number of whirl and gas rigs -- the number of oil and

meanwhile, joe biden canceled the keystone pipeline causing oil prices to soar and destroying thousandsf american jobs in the process and shortly after he canceled the keystone xl pipeline he served putin on a silver platter. he approved russia's nordstream 2 pipeline. can you believe this? this is what i'm talking about. someone needs to tell joe biden you're wearing a america first jersey, not the russia first jersey. because joe biden has destroyed this country in record order including our border. protecting our border and national security is so important. there is a story that strikes me. biden's d.h.s. secretary recently told our border patrol saying i know the policies of this administration are not particularly popular with u.s. customs and border protection. that's the reality. what can we do within that framework? can you believe it? one border patrol agent reportedly turned his back on mayorkas. that is courage. standing up for what you believe in. i believe that border patrol agent is a hero for standing up and being fearless for what is right. and i'm going to ask you here

i've heard people say that the keystone decision had some impact on current prices and i also saw thefact look at that and said it was false. the reality is that well and gas production is continuing in the united states as it should, but we also need to do what president biden wants to do, which is over time reduce our reliance on oil and gas because obviously it is a world market. if you point out russia has an important sheriff that. i was really pleased that the germans decided to announce that they are not going forward with north stream pipeline. that was another important decision. bottom line is when you've got a conflict like this, gas prices will go up and we need to recognize that there will be some price to pay for standing up against putin's bullying. >> but there would be less up with dramatically opened up production. you are quite right to say that the keystone pipeline really just represented a fraction of our overall oil and hope future -- and our future will needs but as you know the open markets, it was right at the time that us production is not going to be as big

many republicans want biden to reopen the keystone xl pipeline.ake on this. listen to this. >> i would also note that on oil leases what this actually justifies in president biden's view the fact we need to reduce our dependence on foreign oil, on oil in general, we need to look at other ways of having energy in our country and others. one of the interesting things we've seen, george, over the last week or so, a number of european countries are recognizing that he need to reduce their own reliance on russian oil. brian: daniel, your reaction to the press secretary's strategy for oil independence. >> it shows a reallying nor rans on the administration how the energy sector works. the problem with jen psaki's talking points, all renewables are made fromto fossil fuels, wind turbines, solar panels, electric vehicles. the big lie the left has told the nation outside of climate hysteria, that these renewables will replace oil and gas and coal. they won't. we'll just use them in a different way but we're not going to use any less of them. proof of that

. >> shutting down the keystone pipeline, shutting down oil and gas leases in this country while theywere incomprehensibly greenlight in the nord stream2 deal for the russians. we need to sanction the oil exports for the russians and end the exact same moment president biden should authorize the keystone pipeline. an authorized oil and glass and drink gas leases and exploration in the united states of america. >> and again, no sign of the rising gas prices slowing down oil prices hit an eight year high this week, briefly topping $105 a barrel. martha. martha: christina thank you very much. so join me too oakland to senator james lankford serves on the senate homeland security committee. senator, good to have you with this thank you for being here. >> thanks good to see you. >> when you hear president biden say he is considering releasing more oil from the strategic petroleum reserve, and will do that sort of as necessary. what goes through your mind? is that an effective strategy here? >> and no. no it is literally a drop in the barrel at that point but really needs to be done is dram

one thing he did on his first day in office was killed the keystone pipeline.ow according to the u.s. energy information department, we import 595,000 barrels of oil from russia if we have the keystone pipeline underway, we met about eight 30,000 barrels from the pipeline, more than from russia. it seems like killing keystone is something that enabled vladimir putin's adventurism. >> republican's are not going to let biden forget that, they will continue to hammer the argument about energy independence, drilling domestically certainly the white house has their response, some of these domestic oil producers are doing enough with what they have been given but the president knows his poll numbers are in the balance, the white house understand foreign policy affects the way the american people see him. before the last time biden spoke to congress, april 2021, 53% approval rating, that's dropped to about 41% after tuesday and obviously the economy and pandemic is a big part of that but where we saw him go underwear september with the withdrawal from afghanistan. jon

it is not just the keystone pipeline, it is a lot of decisions biden administration does that targets oil and gas industry and makes them worried to expand, to innovate, a lot of oil and gas producers are pulling back right now because they know if they start a project the biden administration will likely kill it. we had marc moreno on and he said we were independent under trump administration and could be again other thanning it is the president's policy standing in the way. >> todd: i know this administration is hell bent on putting forward climate change agenda. news flash to the biden white house, we will not drive less, we can't drive less. my drive to work didn't shorten because you destroyed domestic oil production, it just got more expensive, it makes no sense. i'm not the only one, people didn't all of a sudden not to have drive because they raised price of oil. it is unconscionable and american people are suffering. >> carley: have you to innovate first. everybody wants a clean planet, we have to do it on a global scale first before we jump to pulling back on oil and gas bec

some members of congress urging the president to restart the construction of the keystone xl pipelineiscuss all this, quil robinson. good evening and always good to see. let's start with the day one of the biden administration. what does he come in and do? he shuts down the keystone pipeline he bans drilling on federal land and essentially says biggest agenda item, is alternative energy and climate change. and there were the dynamics set us up for the current moment that we are in. quick sure, jackie president biden started off his by knee capping america's ability to produce energy. that is a huge problem or seen the consequences of that now. i hope this is an opportunity to hit resort on his strategy. right now is time to go all in maximizing american energy production that is that all of the above approach not just oil and gas, not just wind and solar brits is a lot of things he can be doing now including increasing exports, opening up the production of critical minerals in the united states. doing more renewable energy, shore pruning to maximize now not limited. >> we absolutely d

martha: why not reopen the keystone pipeline and reopen federal leases on u.s. land?ergy independence that was large leverage for the united states of russia. now we don't have that anymore. in fact we buy more fuel for much than we have in the past. so why wouldn't she want to revisit those and able to increase our leverage over russia? >> first of all the niceties is a substantial producer of energy. second to take steps to ensure russia's attempts get frustrated. one of the things president biden has been focused on is making sure putin turns on the supply of gas to europe. that we can find cargoes of liquefied natural gas going elsewhere in the world and redirect them to europe. so the united states is prepared for a contingency. >> you can see we are no longer energy independent, jake and we were before. >> what i was say is united states is investing massively being a leader in energy transition with yes for now we continue to use fossil fuels. but over the course of years and decades, we become a clean energy superpower because that ultimately is not just where

. >> joe biden could say we are going to reopen the keystone pipeline.e will be energy independent. we'vehelp you. we will send oil and gas so you don't have to depend on russia. >> pete: that's exactly right. we geraldo on sean's show last night. donald trump talking about brow beating germany for quite some time. >> ainsley: he played a 5-minute clip montage of what donald trump has said in the past. pete beat we are going to build that pipeline we want to be energy independent. quiewrp should do the same. part of a grand bargain after the fall soviet union. if we open up economically to energy resources maybe they will open up politically and become more free. instead, china enriched itself and on the russian they have taken advantage of a massive exporter of oil and used it to put their thumb on europe. you want to mess with us? we can shut off the gas and oil. ukraine incredibly significant for resources for russia. agricultural, mineral, oil and gas, long kind of the under belly of a lot of a strength of russia when they lost it. they realized they

our leader kneecapped american energy production by eliminating the keystone x.l. pipeline and empowered putin by waving sanctions on the nord stream 2 pipeline in europe. due to that decision the u.s. is now explicitly not targeting russia's energy sector with sanctions. if he wanted america to be dependent on putin and autocontracts in russia indefinitely. we could have done more to stop what has happened in ukraine. americans support the ukrainians and want to see a change in our energy policy. what is happening now is damaging our country and our standing in the free world. i yield back, mr. speaker. the speaker pro tempore: the gentlelady yields back. pursuant to clause 12-a of rule 1, the chair declares the house in recess subject to the call of the chair

he made the decision to cancel keystone in the first week of his administration.made the decision to lift sanctions on nord stream 2. so reverying those two decisions would go a long way to atoning for the bad mistakes as well as stopping the war on domestic energy production here in america. so i fear putin understands that he has enormous leverage. we'll see the weaponization of energy leading up to the crisis. he was withholding gas flows to europe to squeeze the europeans and use leverage in the emergency domain. that will continue throughout this crisis. by the way, that will put further pressure on the administration to get an iran deal at any price. they want to bring iranian crude on to the energy market in order to alleviate that pain that americans are feeling for their bad foreign policy decisions. >> martha: a lot of things that we can do to open up drilling, keystone, the extension of the keystone pipe line and expansion drilling in this country should be on the table given what is going on right now, that was not nor seen when that happened. what do

why can't we open up keystone pipeline.'s have a vote in the united states senate and put democrats on record they want to keep the pipeline shut down. why can't we go back to aggressive fracking and un -- what you just said, limitations on exploring for oil and gas here at home. we are sitting on an abundance of american owned oil and gas and we should be exporting it for our purposes and henning our allies. we should be all-in with energy independence but, no, we are getting our ass kicked overseas and biden is getting led around by his nose here at home by the left. we are not going to secure our border because it will piss off a.o.c. we are not going to drill oil and gas we own. putin is kicking his ass in the ukraine. i will tell you, this jesse. you are a good guy. if we get screwed over in ukraine the world and let putin get away with it, china is going into taiwan and iran is going to get a nuclear weapon. one thing does lead to the other. >> jesse: so what would you do right now if you were sitting in the white hou

. >> martha: why not reopen the keystone pipeline and reopen federal leases on u.s. land? we had energy independence and that was large leverage for the united states over russia. now we don't have that anymore. in fact we now buy more fuel from russia than we have in the past, so how -- why wouldn't you want to revisit those in order to increase our leverage over russia? >> jake: well, first, martha, the united states is still a substantial producer of energy. second, we have worked with partners around the world to take steps to ensure that russia's attempts to use energy as a weapon get frustrated. one of the things president biden has beeno europe, that we can find cargoes of liquefied natural gas going elsewhere in the world and redirect them to europe. so the united states is prepared for a contingency -- >> martha: but you can see that we are no long tissue do concede we are no longer energy independent mejia? and we were before. >> jake: what i would say is that the united states is investing massively in being a leader in energy transition in which, yes, for now,

energy independent than before. >> you had a president who came into office and literally killed keystone xl pipeline on day one, and killed over 11,000 great paying energy jobs, laterally destroyed american emergency independence that we rebuilt over 4 years of the trump administration. america went from net energy exporter to energy dependent in our allies in europe, not only can they not count on us to help, but we are in same position, they have put us at a disadvantage of dealing with a crazy like putin. trey: is there a chance that house will get together and say we'll recommend impose pass legislation, that is really tough or will democrat continue to defer to biden? >> well, trey, you look at what the ukrainians are doing. we should be in awe of their spirit, their story, they are inspiring, but they are also at a disadvantage, it could have been avoided this happened because of biden's weakness, you asked if that will suddenly change, it needs to change if we will lead the rest of the world in stopping this attack on the people of the ukraine. and god forbid it goes beyond that h

we have to figure out how we get back to get keystone xl started again.'s get more gas and oil in this country. then help our allies. >> sandra: thank you very much. we have new pictures coming from ukraine. >> john: back to trey yingst in kyiv. sound of explosions in the capital city. what is the latest? >> more explosions in the ukraine capital of kyiv. the russians condition their air offensive. they continue to make efforts to come into kyiv from the north and according to ukrainian officials there are and member of the russian army operating within the city limits. a spoke to a member of parliament a few minutes ago carrying a gun with him. he is headed to the northern part of this city tomorrow to fight back against the russians and we saw images of the mayor of kyiv with an automatic weapon to defend his city. this is what we expect in the coming days or hours within the ukrainian capital. it will look like urban warfare. they won't be able to use the air support as much as they have. they will have to fight the ukrainian army and it will be a bloo

our white house correspondent asked the press secretary about keystone.ere is her answer. >> forecast for financial pain, particularly at the gas pump. >> yeah. >> for americans. the president said today the notion that this is going to last for a long time is highly unlikely. would he try to ensure that by lifting some of the restrictions that he has put in place on the energy industry or re-thinking some projects like the keystone pipeline. >> well, first of all, the keystone pipeline is not flowing. so i'm not sure how that would solve anything. there is also plenty of oil leases that are not being tapped into by oil companies so you should talk to them about that. >> would the president ever consider ordering u.s. companies to stop importing russian oil? >> i don't have any prediction of that at this point. >> steve: so her answer is the keystone is not flowing. he pulled the plug on it. >> make it flow. make this thing flow. what's wrong with that? what you really need is a reversal of the president's green energy policy. that policy has restricted t

. >> shutting down the keystone pipeline and oil and gas in this country while they were incomprehensiblyg the deal for the russians. we need to sanction oil for the russians and in the same moment president biden should authorize the keystone pipeline and authorize oil and gas leases and exploration in the united states of america. >> rising gas prices remain a big concern for consumers, already dealing with inflation all the prices hit an eight year high this week, topping $105 a barrel. jon: christina coleman, thanks. for more on this, let's bring it "wall street journal" columnist and fox news contributor, james freeman, the irony and all of this is that because world oil prices have rocketed skyward with this ukrainian invasion, vladimir putin is making more money each day because oil prices have gone up so much. >> yes, he continues to sell it, that should benefit him but oil prices receded, sanctions may be not, not as far as some might have thought but i think you can expect volatility in the conflict puts up with pressure on the price of oil. jon: the president we heard him say h

the answer is to revive the keystone pipeline, pretty straightforward.we need a president reagan or president truman if you're a democrat. we have president biden and progressive democrats. reality will create enormous pressure on this white house to start easing energy production and release capital in the energy industry but a wholesale reversal is not in the cards. stuart: that is the headline i want to read, build the keystone pipeline says president biden. highly unlikely but one lives in hope. see you again soon. vladimir putin threatening to attack anyone who tries to interfere with ukraine as g7 leaders come out against the war saying vladimir putin put himself on the wrong side of history. more varney after this. at fidelity, your dedicated advisor will work with you on a comprehensive wealth plan across your full financial picture. a plan with tax-smart investing strategies designed to help you keep more of what you earn. this is the planning effect. new projects means new project managers. you need to hire. i need indeed. indeed you do. when y

have major impact on energy prices here in the u.s., especially after the president shut down the keystoneipeline. >> we have been in touch with allys and partners, suppliers out there on the global stage for weeks now in preparation for a range of impacts of anticipation in an invasion. >> president biden: i will not pretend this will be painless, could be impact on energy prices. >> carley: mark moreno joins us with that answer. you are hearing the warning if russia invades, energy prices could go up in the u.s., why would that be the case? don't we have the capacity to be energy independent? >> actually, carley, we were energy independent at the end of 2020. for the first time since hire real estate truman was president, had more exports than imports, we were tapping energy issue not relying on foreign sources and endless wars we've had to did in the past. first order of the biden administration was to come in, cancel the keystone pipeline, drilling and drilling on federal land, push for tax and defunding financial -- which made us more dependant on russia. we have russian oil 11-year h

if they wanted to mitigate the cost, they would turn the keystone pipeline back on, hire back all theey fired, and get 800,000 people a day running through that pipeline instead of importing 500,000 barrels a day from russia. the other thing i want to bring up here is ukraine and nato situation. so for years, ukraine has asked to be a nato predicts that, we want to pay our fair share, we want to be part of the alliance, we want to have this article five situation against russia just in case they decide to invade like they are right now. instead of ukraine always being told, you guys have to fix your issues first. joe biden told them coming up to fixing corruption issues first. the bidens and other politicians in europe, the united states participated in it. they got rich off of it. and now ukraine, civilians there are going to die as a result of this chaotic situation where they were taking advantage of the lawlessness, the corruption in ukraine, not fixing it, because you can't go in and take advantage of the corruption, right? there are certain rules. they let ukraine hang out there

the president allowed the keystone xl pipeline to open, americans could have claimed energy independencessians. volatility abroad led to volatility for the stock market. investors bracing for more big swings. it's not over yet. >> martha: it is not. thank you. china responding to putin's war on ukraine and refusing to call it an invasion. president biden answered the china question moments ago. >> are you urging china to help isolate russia? >> i am not prepared to comment on that at the moment. >> martha: let's bring in senator tom cotton from arkansas. good to have you with us. let's start right there? >> what did you think of the reaction to: are you encouraging china to isolate russia question? >> both vladimir putin and xi jingping are ruthless dictators that oppress their own people and neighbors. for xi jingping it's taiwan. it's important we take a firm stance against russia right now. xi jingping is monitoring what the united states and what our european partners will do. if we let off vladimir putin with a slap of the hand, he will read he can get off if he invades taiwan a cou

number one, they would start and expedite the keystone xl pipeline immediately.eers and applause] they would reopen our federal lands for drilling for oil and natural gas exploration. they would revoke the bans on oil and gas leases on the outer continental shelf. they would sign an executive order to cut all the regulations on domestic energy production and its transport to american and european markets. they would immediately -- hey strong american president would work with european allies and partners to replace their supply of russian oil supplies with american energy. [applause] and they would hit putin right where it actually hurts, by enacting heavy sanctions on the russian energy sector. they would leave nato and other -- lead nato and other western allies to cut russia off from banking and financial systems including swift. if joe biden cannot or will not do these things, then he should resign. [cheers and applause] he should resign before his weak leadership and poor decision-making drag america back into another needless war. now, that's just common se

the best thing that could have been done, was getting keystone pipeline online. don't happen last week, guess what the admin's ration did, they stop new drilling for gas and oil on federal land. it's amazing. they just keep going in the wrong direction. now, we might actually sign a bad new deal with iran so we can get there oil. >> kayleigh: gas prices up, stock market down, welcome to joe biden's america. coming up, as truckers plan to protest in the nation's capital, the mayor of d.c. has already put her city on alert. asking for the national guard, while deploying hundreds of police officers. why some say this is all an overreaction. ♪ ♪ municipal bonds don't usually get the media coverage the stock market does. in fact, most people don't find them all that exciting. but, if you're looking for the potential for consistent income that's federally tax-free, now is an excellent time to consider municipal bonds from hennion & walsh. if you have at least 10,000 dollars to invest, call and talk with one of our bond specialists at 1-800-217-3217. we'll send you our

psaki: the keystone pipeline is not flowing, so i'm not sure how that would solve anything. there are plenty of oil leases not being tapped into by oil companies, so talk to them about that and why. the president said this today, if there is an invasion of another country by a big country, there will be impacts on the markets. we anticipate that as it relates to the global oil market. that is why the president for weeks has been engaging with a range of big global suppliers to see what we can do to ensure their supply in the market to reduce the impact on the american people. reporter: the u.s. is one of the russian oil industry's best customers. would the president consider ordering u.s. companies to stop and print russian oil? sec. psaki:we announced significant sentience today. our job is to ensure there is the greatest economic pain on russia, on president putin, and to minimize the impacts on american people in the united states. thanks, everyone. see you tomorrow. reporter: do you all think this is act one in a multiple country invasion? sec. psaki: i will not make a p

i was wondering where the oil that the keystone xl was going to carry to texas, where is that oil goingown here. somebody else is getting it. i'll do homework. >> by the way, $95 a barrel which is what it is right now. we're producing two million barrels less a day under biden than trump. do the math that is 180 million a day that we're losing as country. >> sandra: thanks, steve. have to leave it there. >> thanks. >> sandra: this just in. a canadian judge says he will order protesters to stop blocking access to that bridge between canada and detroit. this just in. we'll have more for you on that as we get it. that surge at the southern border not stopping. 2,000 apprehensions in two days. raul ortiz is next. ♪ limu emu and doug.♪ and it's easy to customize your insurance at libertymutual.com so you only pay for what you need. isn't that right limu? limu? limu? sorry, one sec. doug blows several different whistles. doug blows several different whistles.

and keystone was a an oil pipeline, but natural gas pipelines are shut down, and terminals that we'res are so vast we could help europe, we could supply the united states, very comfortably, and keep the jobs, keep the revenue, and do it environmentally responsibly which we do best in the world. steve, of course, natural gas is lower in emissions, than energy sources in other parts of the world. a great transactional fuel, but how quickly could it happen in terms of permit, biden administration has been reversing expansion under trump administration. how quickly could it be turned around? >> that is what is frustrating this is a very capital and labor intensive industry, it does not come on-line quickly, but it can be shut off quickly, something like keystone was a decade in process, and closed overnight, this would probably take years but this is long-term strategic thinking we need to do. instead we have people who run for office, who don't know anything about the energy industry, they run on platitude on climate change hysteria we need serious energy policy. steve: all our guests ha

unbiden we've closed, we closed down the keystone.stone produced 830,000 barrels a day and currently we're using 595,000, over 595,000 barrels a day from russia. so, you know, we played right into putin's hands. we need to, we need a different energy policy right now and the president needs to wake up and get off all the wokism with everything because this is what it has cost us. it will cost us our energy freedom if we're not careful. jackie: you bring up an excellent point. i've been saying this for a while as a student of the energy markets for a long time that vladmir putin has essentially seized this moment because energy is not just an issue of survival here in this country. it is also an issue of national security. this is exactly how it plays out when your enemy sees that you are weak at home when it comes to your resources? >> yes, ma'am. i mean it goes back to afghanistan. it goes back to last march when they started this movement towards the ukraine and we didn't do anything about it. in fact we went the exact opposite dire

. >> on day one of the biden presidency, he strengthened putin, cancelled keystone pipeline and approved nord stream 2. i'm very clear on what it means to be -- have peace through strength and joe biden does not understand that because he's never shown strength when it comes to making decisions to protect this country. >> brooke: former president donald trump telling laura ingraham this never would have happened under his leadership, listen to this. >> people saying, why didn't this take place during our administration? it wouldn't have taken place and wouldn't have taken place rights now. it is sad for the world, for the country and very sad for a lot of people needlessly killed. >> carley: remains to be seen what the biden administration and congress will do to hold russia accountable, we are continuing to monitor lawmaker reaction. carley and todd. >> todd: thank you, bring in an army veteran who served 10 tours in afghanistan and candidate for u.s. senate in new hampshire. how does ukraine defend itself in the face of what appears to be greater fighting force in russia? >> this is ki

he shut down the keystone pipeline for us to get oil. we cannot even export oil to europe because we were independent before he came into office. now, we have to import oil. i did not realize, sir, that we were importing oil from russia. because of paying money, we are helping russia come against ukraine. host: that pipeline you referred to, the nord stream 2 pipeline, germany announcing earlier this week, even before the larger invasion of ukraine, that they would not be certifying that pipeline, effectively shutting it down. that being seen as one of the harshest sanctions even ahead of the package announced yesterday. you said it is weak. what at this point would be stronger? are you talking you would want a military option because president biden indicated again yesterday that is off the table. caller: i don't want military. i think we ought to have more by the sides. i think it has been weak. president biden knew a long time ago the invasion is going to happen, so he waited so we are going from behind. i just think this president, a

>> unfortunately it started with the keystone xl pipeline.d or not. seems like the biden administration cares more about european pipelines than one that would supply energy here in the united states. so this is just a fundamentally flawed policy. we all want to reduce emissions and have a better environment. but what better way than to use more natural gas, which has brought down emissions by 15% in recent years alone? yes, we're transitions as we always are from one energy source to another. it's not going to be something that we're going to flip a switch on. so in the meantime, people need to find a way to keep the lights on and keep the heat on in the wintertime. right now the democrats' policies are not only making that less possible. they're making it more expensive. i think undermining really what is a strategic advantage for the >> senator i want to speak sweet moments for just a second. demanding a plan to refuse americans in ukraine. what do you want to see happen here exactly? >> i can tell you what we don't want to see happen we d

lift -- reopen the keystone pipeline. even b in our district, i'm running for congress here in southwest georgia. folks in my district will pay $4, $5, $6 a gallon for gas and we could ease some of that if biden lifted some of the ridiculous restrictions. and it's for those of us running for office -- the green new deal and all of these ridiculous ideas, this should be the last nail in the coffin of the green new deal. we see what happens if we're not energy independent. >> laura: i have a quick question -- i have a really quick question. in all honesty, are your potential stitch 20s concerned about enforcing ukraine's border or having us enforce our border at home? >> well, what my constituents are saying, talking to folks around the district, what i'm saying is this, we want to have a country with a strong military, borders, and they want people with leadership in dc that stands up for us and actually projects strength. the reason why we got here is because biden -- our adversaries across the globe have seen biden's wea

shut down, not only the existing energy that is out there, but to close other pathways, like the keystone xl pipeline in a time where energy prices are skyrocketing. it is in home heating costs, adding onto the inflation records with, prices rising, food prices rising, just across the board. americans are filling this pinch. every turn, the government policies that have been enacted are making things worse instead of making things better. set up driving this inflation, there need to be responses that are trying to fight the inflation. that really involves the government moving in regulations. i think we should really take it from president carter when he was faced with really hot inflation. he said look, we got to reduce the budget deficit. we have to limit the size of our federal workforce and eliminate in efficiencies within the federal government. we have to get rid of unnecessary regulation. that is the same thing we need to do today. host: on the same question. i am pulling him headlines on this front. just -- i am pulling on some of these headlines. the prices of that same front pag

elizabeth: to the congressman's point, christian, you talked about this too, keystone pipeline carries5 million gallons of oil a day. that is basically 10 times more than what polluting trains could deliver, christian. the white house has been slammed for botching. the president is not the president of the far left. he is president of the united states. your reaction to that? >> president insulting allies like saudi arabia or at least partners in the gulf. they have gone hat in hand begging saudi arabia, begging other oil producers to increase production. guess what? the answer is no. they will stick with the current plans to increase production by 400,000-barrels per day each month. the actually production output is less than that. if you look at production in the united states we're still off 1 1/2 million barrels per day before the coronavirus crisis started. why is that? it is because of canceling keystone but also it is because of this atmosphere that biden and the congress has created to talk down u.s. domestic energy production, to scare away investors, to talk about the green t
