kathy lawler, with the institute for the study of war. thank you so much for coming on again for all these interesting insights. thank you for he was president jo vines administration is asking the supreme court to end an important restriction on immigration, but only after christmas. title 42 was set to expire. today. it's a pandemic public health measure introduced by former president donald trump, that allowed the government to turn away most people who requested asylum at the border to prevent the spread of co. but 19, the biden administration said it cannot keep this pandemic era policy in place. long term been conservative lead stayed. states argued that lifting it opens the flood gates as the fate of this law hangs in the balance. a surge of migrants are already crossing into the us every day. in the border city of el paso, texas, the mayor has declared a state of emergency. the delays to me so must conduct more. ah, the sacred heart church in battle. it's one of the oldest parishes in town. now it's become a refuge migrant have be

is with the institute for the study of war and joins me now from washington, dc with lawler. welcome back to the day, how big of a game changer code these patriot systems really be for ukraine? the patriot won't change the outcome of the war, but they will enable ukraine to better protect the kimberly it's civilian populations and civilian infrastructure. and especially it's electrical infrastructure from repeated russian missile attacks. so the more air defenses ukraine has, the more widely it can deploy them. if say ukraine set up its patriot battery in keys, ukrainian forces might then be able to move forward. other air defense systems like there as 3 hundreds to better defend other towns or frontline positions. so it won't change the overall picture of the war, but it will have a dramatic effect for civilian safety and protecting infrastructure in discrete areas. under what circumstances are these air defense systems most effective? because recently russia has increasingly been using drones to attack ukrainian infrastructure at ken this new a tool help fend off these kind

good to get mike lawler back on and talk about the plans. picture democrats in congress as kids with mom and dad's credit card knowing it's about to be taken away, but in this analogy, it's your tax money and we are all stuck with the bill. begin at the white house with the fox news alert. >> we are expecting white house press secretary karine jean-pierre to face reporters on a number of hot topics, along them elon musk's twitter bombshell, the white house will have the first chance to respond that voices on social media have been silenced. >> sandra: documents reportedly show how twitter covered up the hunter biden story, relied on hacked information, and other staffers express their own doubts. ultimately the new york post report on hunter biden's laptop was blocked but it's far bigger than any one scandal. >> john: twitter deciding what users were or were not allowed to see. but censorship is not spread evenly, according to a journalist, twitter's overwhelmingly liberal workforce assured conservatives were hit the hardest, many democrats

let's get reaction now from new york republican congressman- elect mike lawler. the biden administration has increased spending by over $4 trillion. now they want to stuff to peter doocy's point stuff even more spending items in the bag before republicans take control next year. i mean, this has got to stop, right? it's just not sustainable. >> oh, it's totally un sustainable and when you look at our national debt and the fact that it's over 30 trillion, you look at the fact that the biden administration has increased spending by over $4 trillion since taking over, there's a reason we're dealing with record inflation and that has been a big driver of it and so from my vantage point, voters, this past november, voted to end one party rule, and they voted to stop this agenda dead in its tracks, and so i'm not in favor of a omnibus package that would fund the biden administration's priorities in perpetuity. i think we need to have a more balanced and measured approach and i think the new congress, taking office january 3, should be dealing with the budget going forw

it's brian catherine lawler. she's a senior analyst at the institute for the study of war, and welcome back to the day that 1st of all, president lindsey's visit to buckner. today, do we have any indication of the size of that battle and why? russian troops are so intent on taking a thanks. so i think it's, it's very difficult in the open source to judge the number of forces. but what we do know is that both russia and ukraine have committed a sizable chunk of their offensive forces to the barcode area. and ukraine is obviously defending its territory. but from the russian perspective, there's a few reasons why they're so focused on bach moot. both are political, i would say the 1st is that russian president putin is unwilling to have russian forces not on the offensive, at least somewhere along the front line. and he's likely ordered his commanders to capture all of finance and the han sco blasts. so maintaining the offensive inbox route is necessary for political and propaganda purposes from hooton's perspectiv

that's congressman elect mike lawler. he'll join us live. >> john: a top iranian official says the morality police have been disbanded in the wake of protests. are the winds are change blowing or is it a distraction? morgan ortagus coming right up. >> so if the regime has now responded in some fashion to the protests, that could be a positive thing, but we have to see how it plays out in practice and what the iranian people think. this is about them, and it's up to them. announcer: derek jeter ...or plan? maybe... it's because in dreams, you can do anything. in dreams... you can hold your entire world in the palm of your hand. and turn time inside out... again and again. and you can do it all with your eyes wide open. announcer: type 2 diabetes? discover the power of 3 in the ozempic® tri-zone. in my ozempic® tri-zone, i lowered my a1c, cv risk, and lost some weight. announcer: ozempic® provides powerful a1c reduction. in studies, the majority of people reached an a1c under 7 and maintained it. ozempic® lowers the risk of

lawler, the opposition or outrage by this, as we speak, has been a massive meeting, a gathering demonstration in support of him. all you've had are many of the leaders of the you're not opposition, these are 6 prominent leaders are all men and we're addressing their the rally there. and in fact, her moral action or a very important alloy. a mom osage p speaking to the crowd, she reminded the crowd that in, in the ninety's odd ones, route road to success started when he was me. and he was convicted for reciting a poem and was sent to jail. after that, he went on to become prime minister and ultimately president, and she said that song can be heard and will with could be heard. one, it's again, like of outdoor, and dorian germs, in a stumble. a to you, kramer or 40, say they have fought at a brush and drone attack on the capital cave. defense forces shut down all 13 iranian made shot had drones targeting city center. mr. attacks were also reported in harker. have done atkinson parisha, this evident of keith cleared the broken glass from her window like her many of her naples whom for shaken thi

mike turner, congressman-elect mike lawler as well, disavowing the firm president. a top republican's remaining silent. >> yeah, i think you point out something very good. go on social media and look at all of the supporters of donald trump. most of them have the constitution in the background on one of their pictures are we the people as of phraseology they constantly use. the level of disconnect here, yasmin, is sort of outrageously unbelievable to me in this moment. i mean, i think the appropriate question to ask republicans who seem to sketch this line and refused to condemn the president on this, which you would think be a red line is what is the line? what could the president do our former president to do that would be enough for you to say, no, i'm done with him. it doesn't seem to be an insurrection at the capitol. it doesn't seem to be welcoming antisemitic people and racist. -- we had a clear picture which is always a good thing. a clear picture into people's real motivations. what seems to be the real motivation is not preservation of the constitution. it

and also the statement from one of the djs who played a set earlier in the afternoon, dj steve lawler last night, which is beyond unbelievable and so, so sad. my prayers and love go to this person's family and loved ones. i left after my set was done, and to wake up to this is so heartbreaking." as i said, the dj who was actually playing the set at the time, we think, was dj marco carola. he is due to be on stage in liverpool later today. the club has said it has cancelled its new year's eve events. west midlands police detectives obviously desperate to find out what happened. and we have seen them coming and going from here in the past hour or so. obviously not just appealing for witnesses but studying cctv, and hopefully we will get some kind of update later on this afternoon. a russian oligarchy made his millions producing sausages, pavel antov, has been found dead at an injured hotel. —— who made his millions. the millionaire's death is the latest in a series of unexplained deaths involving russian tycoons since the start of the russian invasion, many of whom have openly criticise

it is quite notable that you have fellow incoming freshman republican elected's, nick loda, mike lawler york. these are in that crop, these are people that flipped biden seats, they understand what they are going to have to do to be reelected. really distancing themselves from santos, calling for him to be investigated. they, i think, can read the writing on the wall. i wonder if kevin mccarthy can as well. >> i think he can and i think that's good politics for those people, but it's also kind of stating the obvious of what's about to happen, as you, there already investigations taking place. there is going to be an ethics investigation taking place. kevin mccarthy, obviously, has one thing on his mind and that's becoming speaker of the house on january 3rd. and while george santos is a big problem for him, he's also kind of a tomorrow problem, not a today problem. george santos is going to be there on opening day, he's going to be voting, and i think what kevin mccarthy is thinking about is, are there other people in the congress who might not like george santos under the bus? -- marjo

he's been working on shaking those daughter lawler's loose, coming from -- i said the black owners, i've got 5% of 5%. i said, i can easily hire three congressional correspondents in 90 days. it comes down to dollars. and so, it is a deliberate attempt to keep the audience informed. it's a deliberate attempt, these executives are making delivered decisions as to who is covering what. when i was talking about all these issues that we have, you have to be able to educate folks, walk them through and begin to lay out exactly what's going on. king said in his book, where do we go from here, chaos or community? to maintain the militancy and focus on this option if as opposed to the nonsensical. we are caught up in the nonsensical. we spend more time on the gossip stuff as opposed to stops substantive stuff. the marching orders, require us to -- connect the dots, we have to walk through someone who says, man, none of this stuff means nothing to meet, young folks in them black roads we, ropes don't impact me at all. then you begin to say, really? are you a felon or not? do you have -- and you t

this is from maryland, democratic lawler -- caller.aller: there are laws that are not being enforced. we have people all over the country that they have made it legal to carry guns. that's the entry point for all the insanity we are hearing. i also think that the idea, half the people who call in, all the people who have called in, not one of them have talked about hunting. all these people are carrying guns to protect themselves which is nonsense. people who keep guns in their homes usually have someone getting killed within their homes. host: our last color out of pennsylvania. caller: every time joe biden speaks about weapons he always talks about hunting. hunting is one thing, the gun is a constitutional right and hunting is a privilege. i've paid to have a hunting license. my constitutional right is to own a firearm and i can own any firearm i desire him to a machine gun. a machine gun you pay an extra tax four. i should be able to buy any gun i want as long as i am a law-abiding citizen. host: that was our last caller but stick a
