to mark warner on this.or, how do you feel about your colleague, joe manchin's push, let's beef up production here? what do you think of that? >> neil, i think we've got to put all of these options on the table. let me step back. ten days ago, i was in munich. if you told me then if you'd have the germans take the lead on shutting down north stream 2, sanction putin personally, that we would have the europeans taking the lead on kicking russian banks out of swift, that we would have the central bank of russia sanctioned, the germans step up and meet their defense commitments, that we would have sweden and finland sending arms to ukraine and the swiss getting off the neutrality peace and weighing in, i would have said it's unbelievable. it's happened because of the courage of zelensky and the ukrainian leadership and the fight of the ukrainian people and also happened because joe biden has helped rebuild nato and put this alliance back together. we've got not america acting alone but acting -- >> neil: i unde

mark warner is a member of the finance and budget committee, he joins us now. senator, welcome. here ahead of hearing the president's remarks. do you wish this administration was doing more to address skyrocketing home heating costs, skyrocketing gas prices? >> well, let's recognize first this is a global problem. as a matter of fact, if we look at natural gas, the price in europe, in germany is about seven times more than the price here is in america. so, we can't blame biden for all of the spike in energy prices all across the world. so let me tell you what i think we ought to be doing. i do think the move to release a million barrels a day for the next up to 180 days is a good step. it's a band aid, but a good step forward. secondly, the administration, and this part i don't get, in the last ten days approved two export permits for l.n.g., liquified natural gas. why they have not promoted that more, especially on fox, i don't get. that's saying more american gas would be produced and that would get the europeans off the russian oil and gas. third, i think what he'll propose i

joining me is the chairman of the select committee is virginia senator mark warner. putin these days, which is simply he knows he's stuck. is he looking for a way out yet, or is he still looking for an advantage in negotiations? >> chuck, i don't know the answer to that. i think -- i'm not sure anyone in our intelligence community, this is a guy, an autocrat more and more isolated. the number of inputs he gets is smaller and smaller. we see this where dictators get more and more isolated leading to their demise. we're not 100% sure he's getting accurate reports of how badly the russian invasion is going. it's remarkable in a way that we're still seeing these images real time come out of ukraine. you remember a number of -- russia intervened in kazakhstan. after a couple days they shut down the internet. the fact we're getting these images and the press is still able to report, i give you guys kudos. at the end of the day, part of this battle was about the notion of democracy and a free press versus the kind of limited propaganda approach that russia's putting forward

i agree with senator mark warner, that putin is guilty of regime change in ukraine. regime change, it hasn't worked out so well. that's not the policy of united states here. the policy of the united states is to defeat the russians in ukraine. i know it was off the cuff, but whatever the president says carries a lot of weight. when he said minor incursion that carried a lot of weight. in this case it sends a very provocative message to mr. putin. if we're so worried about provoking him that we couldn't even send migs into ukraine, how is this any different? in fact, i would say it's more provocative than sending migs into ukraine. >> was it appropriate for white house officials to walk that back? >> i think so. unfortunately, dana, we are not talking about the issue at hand and that is giving the ukraine people what they need to fight this war, instead we are talking about the president's gaffe that he made at his speech. >> i want to ask about china because we heard this week from chinese president xi jinping saying that the country would play a constructive role in

our speaker will be senator mark warner followed by a brief discussion between he and i will take a fewuestions. and then a panel whom i will introduce at thedu time. i'm not sure mike warner needs an introduction for a long time now people have thought he is the most tech savvy editor in washington. in the cybersecurity efforts were very pleased in fortune to get his take on the events in the ukraine the implications for cybersecurity in the u.s. senator, the floor isan yours. >> thank you and thank all of my friends for having this form. i think we all have been mesmerized not only as americans for frankly citizens of the world to see the conflict as it rolls out daily on our screens in ukraine. i think it was four weeks ago i was in munich with ukrainian's minister intel service leaders. this was a few days before putin launched hisne unprovoked aggression against ukraine. even at that moment in time while our colleagues saw the intelligence the vast majority of them still did not believe that putin would literally pull the trigger. he did obviously and again i hethink the world has

mark warner joins us. he's the chairman of the senate intelligence committee.as you know, the u.s. publicly, officially, formally, declaring russia has committed war crimes in ukraine. the last time you and i spoke, you told me you think war crimes have been committed and the u.s. needs to call out the leadership of russia. so what exactly does that look like? >> well, wolf, i hope what it looks like is maybe putting a bit of pause in some of the russian leadership. i believe you'll see nato go forward and sanction virtually all the members of the russian parliament, the duma. i think they should potentially name military commanders who are raining this hell on the ukrainian citizens. i think they need to be held responsible. and president biden has got a big, big day tomorrow. he has to maintain the coalition of nato. maintain the g-7 which includes, you know, obviously major powers like japan outside of europe, and you've got the european union. so keeping some of those front line states, quite nervous altogether, ratcheting up in terms of calling out the war

chairman mark warner joins us ahead. >> and how could the fallout be for both parties? the fallout b for both parties no one thinks about their hearing until you start losing it. and then you think about it a lot. this doesn't help and the whole process of getting them is a royal pain in the ..... ear. if only there was a better way. this is eargo, yes right here. incredible right? what's more you get all the support you need all from here. sitting right here. ready to style in just one step? introducing new tresemme one step stylers. five professional benefits. one simple step. totally effortless. styling has never been easier. tresemme. do it with style. hey businesses! tyou all deservess. stylingsomething epic! easier. so we're giving every business, our best deals on every iphone - including the iphone 13 pro with 5g. that's the one with the amazing camera? yep! every business deserves it... like one's that re-opened! hi, we have an appointment. and every new business that just opened! like aromatherapy rugs! i'll take one in blue please! it's not complicated. at&t

we will talk with the chairman of the senate intelligence committee, virginia democrat mark warner in just a few minutes about all the details from that hearing today. state department correspondent benjamin hall is live again on the ground in kyiv tonight. and a warning here again, some of the images in this report may be disturbing. good evening, benjamin. >> good evening, bret. well, here in kyiv, there are concerns now that the stalled russian offensive to try to encircle the city could take a more dangerous turn. meanwhile that scene down in mariupol is becoming evermore miserable. >> global condemnation over a missile attack on a maternity hospital in the southern city of mariupol. ukrainian officials say three people have died including a child. women, ready to give birth, among the 17 wounded. russia's foreign minister calling concerns over civilian casualties pathetic and claiming without any evidence the hospital was an active militia base and no patience. >> there had been no women, children, or service personnel in that maternity hospital in mariupol for a long time. >> uk

. >>> here to discuss, democratic senator mark warner of virginia, the chairman of the senate intelligence committee. mr. chairman, thanks for joining us. on the question of the u.s. helping the polish government to send the soviet-made mig fighter jets to ukraine, your colleague, senator jeanne shaheen, democrat of new hampshire, told cnn, quote, it's not clear why we are standing in the way. earlier today and yesterday two different former nato supreme allied commanders told us that they think the u.s. should be trying to help the polish government get these migs to ukraine. do you agree? >> well, jake, i believe we are sending a lot of aid, 17,000 anti-tank tools and i just was meeting with some more british colleagues. they announced another 3,600. i think we need to get more of those turkish drones that have been very effective. the question on the planes, i'd love to find a way to get the planes to the ukrainians. what i need to get the answer to, though, is will the balance of nato agree with this? i know there's some argument coming straight from poland versus coming from a nato am

i am not sure mark warner needs an introduction. for the long time, people thought he was a tech savvy senator in wisconsin. you could say mark sets a low bar, but in his case, that is not true. he has been a leader in the cyber security efforts. we are excited to get his take on the events in ukraine. >> making decisions of the world to see the conflict as it rolls out daily on our screen and in ukraine, i think it was three weeks ago i was in munich and meeting with ukrainians foreign ministers. this was a few days before putin launched his unprovoked aggression against ukraine. at that moment in time, while our colleagues saw the intelligence, new we were on the precipice, the vast majority of them still didn't believe that putin would literally pull the trigger. she did, and i think the world has been overtaken by the courage of the ukrainian people. we were talking about this morning, researchers. using language when he spoke to the english parliament. i am glad the u.s. formally invited him as well. you can make up a presentat

that will be a discussion with senator mark warner, and -- the chair of the senate intelligence committee, and others. you will be able to watch that at 11:00 a.m. monday, eastern time on c-span two. you can watch it online at c-span.org and watch it at all times on our free c-span video app, c-span now. let's go back to our phone lines and talked to james, calling from central florida on the democrat line. james, good morning. caller: good morning, jesse, how are you doing? host: i'm fine, go ahead, james. caller: i am glad your staff pulled up that information about the chemical warfare somebody called about, the lab in ukraine you just mentioned in 2018, they had specialists going and they are terrified that there is a chemical weapon, biological or anything like that. you have a great staff that is working with you to respond to the individual that called in. i appreciate what you guys do. host: let's go to kenny, calling from byron, georgia on the independent line. good morning. caller: yeah. as you watch the conflict unfold, you will see people killing each other. i feel sad about m

virginia democratic senator mark warner says it's important. president biden showcase his effort and the fact of the coalition that's been built not only of european nations, but countries like japan and korea and taiwan. >> i think he needs to address it. but some republicans say the president must go further to demonstrate to other grocers that we mean business senate republican leader mitch mcconnell says sanctions may not be enough to deter putin and he's urging the president increased military spending. president biden must lead. by example, the white house has not announced plans for additional military funding but is calling on congress to pass a multibillion-dollar aid and security package to help ukraine. and expect to hear more about that. roughly 6.4 billion dollar package on president biden's speech tonight. >> we know the ambassador from ukraine to the u.s. was lobbying for this legislation just yesterday on capitol hill. she says it is. it is imperative that congress didn't pass soon given the aggression from russia. for now in wa

but senator mark warner says he thinks putting the aid in the funding package makes sense. we need to stand with the people of ukraine. we need to give him to say and at the same time we need to do our job and keep the federal government united states working as well. and senator chuck grassley says he's in favor of linking them to. i think it might help you get past with the attack on ukraine intensifying and the shutdown deadline looming, there's growing pressure to get it done soon. the overwhelming majority of us in both parties want to fund the government for the route balance of the year. we want to support ukraine in washington. i'm hannah brandt. >> down to the irs which plans to hire 10,000 new full-time workers too help bring down a massive backlog of unprocessed refunds. at least 10 million taxpayers and 4 million businesses. we're still waiting for tax refunds from last year. the new entry level hires will deal primarily with mounds of unprocessed paperwork, recent effort to try to add 5,000 new irs employees ended with fewer than 200 people hired. still to come

democratic senators mark warner and sherrod brown say it's vital nato leaders unite behind more aggressivens. that includes oil banks, crypto everything. i think we ought to go ahead and sanction the whole russian parliament. texas republican senator john cornyn joined a bipartisan group of senators in poland over the weekend. very perilous, very dangerous, but a very important time. and i think the president's presence in brussels and poland is a is a right step. he says world leaders need to find a way to safely deliver billions in aid, sort of like the berlin airlift after world war. 2. >> because the russians are surrounding some of the city's while in brussels. thursday, president biden will attend an emergecy nato summit and meet with european allies. the white house is promising to announce more aid and additional sanctions ensure robust enforcement. national security adviser jake sullivan says leaders will also work to reduce europe's dependency on russian oil and discuss potential consequences for countries like china that may decide to help russia. we believe we're very much on t

if you doubt that, you should know that senator mark warner of virginia wrote a letter to his donorstech demanding they restrict the spread of russian propaganda. we are sensitive on the topic and you should be too. warren reported that his donors in big tech complied with his demands. >> you sent letters to the leading social media companies, meta, which runs facebook, asking them to prevent russia propaganda operations from appear on their platforms. you have received any responses yet that they take that action? >> well, david, the short answer is yes. every one of these platforms has taken down some of the russian activity and they are not making money off russian ads. that's good am i commend these platforms. >> tucker: contrast with the clip from msnbc we just played. dumb people doing propaganda and telling you russia invading ukraine is about racism in the south. you will notice that the cia shield said russian state media or russia propaganda. he is not talking about banning russian state media. he is talking about banning russian propaganda a term he gets to define and cens

now you've got senators mark warner, democrat senators kyrsten sinema and mark kelly and also lawmakersying what you're doing to support us immunities is horrendous. you are flooding the zone, they are not equipped with their infrastructure and hospitals and medical services to handle the influx with the white house doing to the poor state. this is a federal state issue, tom. you and i have talked about this they are getting pounded and hammered in poor communities. >> henry cuellar has been from the beginning, i respect him even though he's a democrat, he's pushing back his administration open border policy. as far as from arizona, his state is being overrun, he hasn't said a single thing until now and he's doing it because of midterms. they are not doing this for the right reason, if they did, they would have been talking about this during the first year of the biden administration with almost 2 million people encounter, 600,000 getaways. evan 57000 released into the united states, that's when they should have been raising hell now they are worried about the midterms speaking up. eliz

let's discuss with the chairman of the senate intelligence committee, senator mark warner.or, thanks so much for joining us. this is the president of the united states calling putin publicly a war criminal. the president slammed ruv for deliberately targeting civilians, hospitals, maternity wards, killing a lot of children. why is the white house trying to walk that back right now. >> wolf, i don't know how the white house is parsing this, but, you know, the whole world has seen these images of putin's brutal assault upon the ukrainian people. remember, it was literally weeks ago that vladimir putin and some of his senior leadership were completely sanctioned on an individual basis by us and nato allies. putin now joins the likes of omar canada i have and others in terms of that rogue hall of fame of being individually sanctioned. now to see the level of these attacks, not dissimilar to what putindy against the syrian people in aleppo, but playing out real time, i'll leave the legal experts to parse the definitions, but i think war crimes have been committed against the ukr

because a statement by the senate intelligence chairman, a committee that you sit on, mark warner justnts ago said he was in credibly moved by the words this morning of zielinski. president zelensky noticed that the u.s. is artie taken an unprecedented step to rally the world. to support ukraine's efforts to defend itself. we should heed the call for defensive aid defensive aid on my knowledge on antitank weapons, antiair weapons. i read this entire thing. there is no mention of supplying mig 29's. that was the biggest ask next to a no-fly zone which we know this point will probably never happen. >> a lot of democratic senators are carrying water for the president. privately, they wish the president had moved faster as well. >> harris: how does that help? >> i hope they are privately pressuring the president to move again. you've seen this time again whether it was the central bank sanctions or the sanctions of the international swift payment system. supplying those antitank missiles and supplying the antiaircraft missiles. there is more that we can do. we should have provided those ai

joining us now is democratic senator, mark warner. the chairman of the senate intelligence committee. thanks so much for being here. i know you can't share with us any classified information, but can you characterize how you see where russia is today in its fight against ukraine? >> first, alisyn, i think the american intelligence community was spot on in predicting how extensive putin's invasion would be. i know our european friend, even ukrainian, didn't believe putin would launch this major of an attack. but three things i think have been a bit surprising. one was you know, can't really predict, and i'm no military expert. you can't really predict an individual's will to fight until the combat starts and were the ukrainians going to have that will to fight, clearly they've exceeded all expectations and candidly, the russians, in terms of their will to fight has been we've probably overestimated some reports of russian soldiers. second, i don't think anybody could have predicted how poorly the russians planned some of the logistics.

mark warner sent a letter to ukrainian officials pushing for all refugees to have equal access to safetyw much race and religion are wrapped up into the decisions of who we protect and who we reject. there has been right wing ideology in some of these nations. we saw it in the past. and it is of course deeply troubling that we're seeing it today. it seems as though there has been strong pressure by the u.s. and other nations, so we have gotten some response from u.n. officials that it is being addressed. but, look, we've seen this at our old border when we expel patience summarily, that the use of policies to discriminate is obviously troubling in any situation. but we cannot have it that africans, south asians, those who are fleeing in war zone are turned back as a result of racism. >> as always, krish, thank you. >>> that's all the time i have for today. i am alicia menendez. i'm going to see you back here tomorrow at 6:00 p.m. eastern for more "american voices." for now, our live coverage of the invasion of ukraine continues after this quick break. of ukraine continues after this quic

resistance from democrats in particular, one of them the senate intelligence committee chairman mark warnerho told me earlier right after the speech that going that far might not be the most effective route, instead calling for those anti-craft missiles, anti-tank aircraft in that regard. so there is support for taking some steps. maybe not as far as what zelenskyy wants, but undoubtedly there will be more action by congress. whether that's enough to deter what's happening in ukraine right now remains to be seen, but still debate about how far washington should go. >> no question. it's a good point, because the military officials say the key is surface-to-air missile report at this point. they downplayed the actual impact, for instance, on military jets. there is, as we were reporting, further systems for that category going in. manu raju on the hill, thank you very much. >>> the president is expected to unveil $8 billion for ukraine assistance. do we know what specific weapon systems are in this package? >> i think what we expect, jim, is that this $800 million will include more stinger su

especially fellow democratic senators like mark warner who reposted this photo of him questioning collinsa capitol hill reporter. do you expect any early yes commitments from any republicans out of the hearing? >> i don't expect them to play their hands early. perhaps after the hearings next week, that you'll have some that start coming around. i think they don't want to commit themselves because there will be four days of more public vetting of judge jackson, and i think none of them want to get out there and then something perhaps come out or happen during the hearing. so i would expect after next week, you'll start seeing people and where they than on the nomination. >> chuck grassley of iowa thinks the time line for this nomination process is rushed and, quote, arbitrary. the whim points out republicans only waited 16 days after announcing judge amy coney barrett's nomination. this will be 24 days. despite the hypocrisy, do you think they're going to use this rush time line argument, the republicans? >> i've been around this town long enough to know it doesn't seem to matter to either

i mark warmer , don't act on my stomach i talked to mark warner, the chair of the senate intelligenceone stories at the nsa, and they do red team, blue team efforts to go after cyber attackers. we have the ability to do our own damage overseas as well, but this is our new battlefield of the next century. we have to be wary, especially about our electric grid and other vulnerabilities. >> emily: here in new york city alone, the estimates are almost $1 billion of property that oligarchs only here in addition to long island, that the state that putin owns. what do you think about seizing those properties? >> shannon: the efforts they are going to take gear for luxury apartments, jets, yachts, anything they can trace to oligarchs. we know sanctions are heard in the russian people. we see them lining up at the atm, worried as the currency crashes. we need to make it painful for the oligarchs. if that should be the focus. there seems to be a coordinated effort with european allies as well. last year, president biden gave a list of 16 sectors to president putin that he said "don't attack the

. >> harold: mark warner the senator the chair of the intelligence committee in the senate has talkeds as well. look, i think we come back to where you started jesse and we all have come around two things, one, do we confront them militarily and that means providing more weapons? does that mean a no-fly zone? does that mean no troops on the ground or do we rely on pressure at the same time russians. our fight is not with the russian people. it's putin, the next several days are going to be difficult. my prayers go tout these people and those who want to give the red cross go online and go to red cross and make a donation humanitarian needs are great there as well. >> greg: the question is, are the sanctions and the economic pressures going to force putin to realize the miscalculation or is it going to cause him to double down and react brutally? we don't know that yet. >> dana: he just killed 2,000 people. >> judge jeanine: in addition to that. they haven't gone full throttle. if is he going forward. >> dana: that's on us. >> greg: well, that's it for us. "special report" is up next.

ahead of time, senate intelligence committee chairman mark warner asked the head of the national security agency today why that is. and he said part of it is that careful american planning has really helped here a tremendous amount of work done prior to the actual invasion, work done by my agency, work that was done by cyber command, inner agency, a series of private sector partners that harden the infrastructure of the ukraine. i think that was part of it. >> one source familiar with the effort told me a big piece of the planning came from american cyber security companies working directly with the ukrainian government, often for free for months that work is included government incident response, proactive measures and monitoring of networks and the american cyber companies work for free, i'm told, because it was the best way to learn what the russians are up to and to help prepare their paying clients for what could come next the source also said cyber attacks are in part done for psychological attempt and may not be using them in ukraine because the real world rockets they're firing ar

the head of the committee, senator mark warner just asked his first question.go into closed session where they get a classified briefing from these top intelligence officials. so this hearing is extremely timely given what is happening in ukraine. but they're also going to talk about the other threats facing the united states and facing the world including china, they say. including iran. including the global pandemic and including change, jose. >> leigh ann caldwell on capitol hill, thank you. >>> joining us, maryland senator chris van hollen who sits on the foreign relations and appropriations committees. a pleasure to see you. the house approved a nearly $14 billion aid package for ukraine. what do you think the united states should be doing? more or is this enough? >> i would say this is about double what people were originally thinking because of the growing needs. just around $14 billion. half of it to increase military assistance to ukraine. half of it to help address the humanitarian crisis. we will continue to stand by to look at needs as they unfold.

those aircrafts over to ukraine as zelenskyy just called for in congress, not just him, but also mark warnerte intelligence committee also expressed some concerns about going that route, and skeptical that that is the right approach, but there is bipartisan support about the other actions that zelenskyy called for, whether it is increased sanctions on members of russian politicians, whether it is other actions as well, providing those surface-to-air missiles that he has called for. so expect some more congressional action in that regard. expect efforts to impose russian oil ban, and to go after russia's trade status. so there will be some legislative activity, there will be some bipartisan support, but also bipartisan division, division on both sides of the aisle, exactly how far to go, particularly when it comes to aircrafts and even the idea of imposing that no-fly zone. >> dana bash, on the issue of aircraft, i've been told by u.s. military officials that that particular issue has been overdone, that ukraine has more than 50 aircraft existing and the number of sorties they're flying per d

to me, the more trouble in the mark warner putin believes he is, the more irrational he will be and i- let me put it at the level of possibility -- that he will unleash a single tactical nuclear weapon, aim it at a field someplace just to remind people that you are not messing -- i used to think that pakistan was most dangerous country on earth because they had nukes and they had crazy people around the center of power. but pakistan is nothing compared to russia. russia has, what, 6,000 of them? i feel at one point feeling optimistic about zelensky and the ukrainians. on the other hand, because of that, i'm worried about what this crazy person will do. >> greg: isn't it funny that you and i have kind of switched because that is what i was saying three weeks ago when you were saying what i was saying. how do we know what is true? i think the one big difference here is that this is the first time putin has had integration with economic consequences. he is on a broken economy come up against an enemy on their home field graced with america's latest weapons. he's the visiting team that is

and joining me now is democratic senator, mark warner, the chair of the intelligence committee.ctor. you know the role his brother is playing and of course, president zelenskyy addressing the g 7 and nato as well. it does seem that nato and nato leader's response is unless they hit a nato nation, they don't have a responsibility but what about the moral responsibility to defend ukraine against the possibility of chemical weapons? >> i heard your previous guest. i met your previous guest' brother, the mayor of kyiv in munich a little over a month ago. i remember meeting a number of ukrainians who, even at that point, as our intelligence said putin was coming in. they didn't even believe he would come in at this level. and i think we eall -- the whole world has been touched by the courage of president zelenskyy and the courage of the ukrainian people. and you hear it in his voice and i'm hearing on intelligence reports in the last few days, it's not -- it's no longer about how long ukrainians can put off the inevitable, the russian forces overcoming them but there's a real feeling

the senator mark warner sent a letter pushing for all refuges to have equal access to safety.ulties? >> it speaks to how much race and religion are wrapped up into the decisions of who we protect and who we reject. there's been a rise of right-wing ideology in some of these nations, we saw it in the past, and it is of course deeply troubling that we're seeing it today. it seems as though there's been strong pressure by the u.s. and other nations so we have gotten some response from us u.n. official that's it is being addressed but we've seen it at our own border when we expel haitians the use of policy is troubling in any situation but can't have it such that those who are fleeing a war zone are turned back as a result of racism. >> thank you, as always we thank you. next, an american wnba star reportedly detained in russia as the state department tells all americans to leave the country. an update on that situation straight ahead. >>> moments ago visa and master card announcing they're suspending all operations in russia as that country teeters on the brink of economic collap

senator mark warner has called to sensor pro russia social media posts.anwhile the television network russia today is being censored all over the world. we found -- it might be interesting to know what the other side is saying. it might be good to have more information, not less. they have been -- happy to have him join us tonight. thanks so much for coming on the censorship seems very open without apology and it seems more at once but didn't maybe i have our it. >> glenn: definitely without any president. i mean, you probably recalled the days after 9/11 belmar was part because he said that he does not think 9/11 hijackers should be regarded as cowards. it takes courage to fly a plane into a building. there was a lot of sense even when we were attacked and that immediate aftermath, maybe it is not a good idea for people to just be fired because it will create that atmosphere where no one can speak. it is worse. one of the things that has gotten overlooked is how closely aligned there are -- they are. they have huge contract with the pentagon, the cia, al
