michael white, so the nursing association says ways you do not correspond with the conditions that are being forced to work on the because of the state wages policy here they why do they have not kept pace with inflation and so many as dying to see they're working conditions not been reflected in the pilot iris. i think for many years the government has assumed that the workforce was adequate. and what we know is that the workforce numbers were not as good as i should've allowed the headlines for this hour because the report is up next. they soon for that. so from the team i myself. thanks and good night. as shown, thomas will be with you guys you through the nightly global news headlines in just about half an hour time. ah, ah, is your media a reflection of reality? in a world transformed what will make you feel safer? high selection for community. are you going the right way, or are you being led somewhere? direct. what is true? what is great? in the world corrupted, you need to descend a join us in the depths or remain in the shallows. talking at cross purposes, this is at the heart

and the government to ensure that stafford reimbursed the sick leave. nursing union organizer, michael white says, wages don't correspond with the conditions that forced to work on the because of the state wages policy. here day wages have not kept ice with inflation. and so many is dying to see their working conditions. not been reflected in the pilot i receive. i think for many years the government has assumed that the workforce was adequate. and what we know is that the workforce numbers were not as good as they should have been. the court of arbitration for sport is blaming anti doping agencies for not processing figure skater camilla leave his test results properly, which in turn hon the athlete and also other competitors. this has been the result of the relevant anti doping bodies failing to ensure that pending cases are resolved before the olympic winter games commence. had that all been accomplished on time and in conformity with the time limits recommended by water. then a decision on the merits of miss will leave us case and her status could have been made well before the game star

who michael bennett was just referring to. that was a white see me of michaels. ah, who is in solidarity with michael, so that's a white former player not being served in a restaurant and not having people at his can imagine what it's been like for black athletes all over the last 10 years. as we've seen this return of politicized athlete. and it really has been like a 10 year period. ah, women athletes, male athletes, l g, b, t, q, athletes. there's been an explosion of politics over the last decade in capron. it is only just a part of that story, you know, but he came up, taking that knee in 2016, and we're talking about right now a period that i think goes back to the murder of treyvon martin in the miami heat, lead by le bron ah, speaking out against that. so capron is just a part of the story, but i think he represented an incredible acceleration and elevation of the politics in the new athletic movement. and that's how he changed the world. he changed the world because he took this feeling of protests that was out there and he brought it to the point of, i

michael in the white house in the east room just a little while ago reporter is yelling there. questions ad president biden in a way you don't see that very often. and present biden, in contrast, coming out with a very strong and devastating condemnation for the russian president vladimir putin . he gave all the responsibility to him for the current escalation for his military attack on ukraine. he talked of prudence naked aggression, quote unquote. and his desire to rebuild a russian empire, he says his actions were unprovoked, unjustifiable. those were his words. and you know what stunning is how he described, how putin engaged in all those diplomatic efforts over the last days and weeks. and at the same time, really cold bloodedly, preparing this invasion, this attack on ukraine. and really, the key takeaway here i think was basically the notion of diplomacy that the west can focus on, on diplomacy, on deterrence, really that this failed. and so we might be looking back of the stay as a watershed moment for the international order watershed moment indeed, or what actions doe

. >> reporter: well, michael, the white house remains on high alert as they are waiting to see what russian president vladimir putin's next moves will be. overnight there was the emergency meeting of the u.n. security council where the u.s. and the others were very forceful of the denunciations of the actions. they're saying the russian president's recognition of the two pro moscow regions in eastern ukraine as a dependent, he is essentially trying to set up a pretexts for a further invasion of ukraine. now after putin made that recognition and after he ordered those troops into those russian separatist backed regions, the u.s. president biden signed an executive order implementing very limited sanctions specifically targeted to those regions. those sanctions essentially would prohibit u.s. trade and investment in those regions. this is all separate from the wider sweeping package of sanctions the u.s. has promised to implement along with allies should russia move forward with a further invasion of ukraine. they've been readying that sanctions package for weeks, for months really now promis

give us more of a sense of the white house moves and reasoning. >> well, michael, the white house continues to monitor the situation with russia and ukraine with growing concern as officials are saying that a military attack is very likely. now, earlier on -- on monday, president biden unveiled some sanctions that he would be implementing after russian president vladimir putin recognized the independence of two regions in eastern ukraine that are controlled by russian-backed separatists. so these sanctions are very limited, and essentially, what they do is they prevent american businesses from conducting trade or investing in those two specific regions. now, this is separate from those punishing sanctions that the white house has promised over the course of the past-few months that they would implement if russia moved forward with an invasion. the u.s., of course, has -- has been crafting that larger, more sweeping sanctions' package with the cooperation of allies, and they have yet to actually deploy and implement those sanctions as they are waiting to see what president putin's next moves

arlette, bring us up to date on the white house's position and why the sanctions they're talking about are so limited. >> reporter: well, michael, the white house continues to watch russia's moves with growing concern as it appears that they are moving closer and closer to a further invasion of ukraine. now, u.s. officials have said that they believe that russia -- those troops that russian president vladimir putin has ordered into those two russian separatist regions in ukraine, that those could be arriving at any moment in the coming hours. the u.s. has also been watching russia's military movements over the course of the past few weeks as well as most recently the past few days, and they've seen other movements that have suggested the potential for a broader invasion. that includes the arrival of amphibious ships as well as equipment for airborne units. and as you heard the u.s. ambassador to the united nations, linda thomas-greenfield, she was warning about russia's intentions when it comes to ukraine. she said that the moves that they've been making so far follow what the u.s. predicted would be part of the russian playboo

arlette, bring ups up to date o the white house's position, and what actions it's taking and what actions it's not yet taking. >> well michaelthe white house continues to sound the alarm ant a threat of a further invasion into ukraine, especially following those moves russian president vladimir putin took early todays a he recognized those two pro-moscow territories, as in recognizing their independence. you heard there from the u.s. ambassador do the united nations, linda thomas-greenfield t talking about some of the movements they have seen russia take in recent days. now, u.s. officials have said they anticipate those troops that putin has ordered into those eastern-ukraine regions, to those troops could be arriving in the coming hours. the u.s. has also seen broad preparations for a broader strike invasion, including the arrival of amphibious ships, as well as equipment for airborne units. now, this all comes, as the u.s., over the course of the past few days, has really ratcheted up their warnings about russia's intentions when it comes to ukraine. but one thing that the u.s. has not said, so far, is they are -- the whi

the men who murdered unarmed black man ahmed aubrey in the state of georgia, travis mac michael was one of 3 white men who chased and killed a 25 year old as he was up for a run in 2020, but michael is due to face trial next week on federal hate crime charges. but he's admitted perceiving aubrey because of his race, or 3 men convicted of murdering aubrey, had been sentenced to life in prison. now hundreds of people had been rallying in the bolivian capital of le pass calling for more protection for women. the demonstration follows outraged over a serial rapist who received the 30th sentence, killing a woman that was released on medical grounds after a few years and 2019 man reversed it again. last week, when the bodies of 2 women were found buried at home, protested and perused demanding the owners of the refinery that spilt 12000 barrels of oil to leave the country. they accuse the spanish and ret, song of down playing the incident after the company initially reported only $6000.00 barrels, leap. that's all blame the spill of these 2 army, triggered by the embassy volcanic eruption into the heavy

so, what does the white house know as it's monitoring all of this happening? what are you hear something. >> well, michael, the president is spending his weekend at his home in delaware but a white house official tells me he is being regularly updated and staying in close communications with his national security team while away from d.c. but no doubt, white house officials are watching what is happening on the ground in ukraine. these developments with great concern. we know that over the past few weeks, warnings from them have intensified as to what they could predict could happen in ukraine, based on updating intelligence. and so far, a lot of things right now have come into focus, in terms of their predictions. and so, of course, officials are concerned about ukraine as a country, for the people, and also the nation's stability in terms of their government. but there, also, is great concern for president zelenskyy from white house' officials today. and we know that president zelenskyy and president biden spoke today on a phone call. white house officials said it lasted about 40 minutes and in a readou

so michael, no doubt this will be a topic of discussion tomorrow when president biden calls allies and partners from the white house in this situation room when he returns from his weekend in delaware. michael? >> all right, jasmine. appreciate the update. jasmine wright there in washington for us. now max seton is the financial bureau chief for the financial times. he joins us from moscow. good to see you again. let's start with this. it's quite something for putin to put nuclear deterrent forces on alert why do that? and what does it suggest about his state of mind to do it? does it smack of desperation? >> i think it's less desperation than this is what he has up his sleeve to respond to the escalatory spiral and it's his response to the western response to his war on ukraine. you remember russia has the world's largest nuclear arsenal. it's an obvious card to play. we've been here before. he threatened to use them against western countries who meddled against russia's war in ukraine. and in 2015, he was talking about the annexation of crimea the year before. and he said that he gave a similar order the ru

michael curry was white house press secretary when i started covering the white house. >> mine too.my first briefing was mike curry. >> i learned so much from him. his question is asking most pundits say trump will run in 2024 and what would it take for him not to run and that is mike's question. >> i think the prospect of that would keep him from running and he may think that a one 2020. i think he knows if he comes to know that he cannot win and i'm not saying it's impossible. look he lost decisively last time around and it led up to and including the january 6. this is not somebody that is going to suddenly turn around and get the suburbs again you know? and the season republican operatives kowtowing and trying to placate trump in every possible way no the idea of him winning is remote, remote, remote for the way he's so aggressively -- to win. and trump does not want to lose again. >> i agree with adam i would add that he is going to run because he says he's going to run at this point. he will say that up to the moment before he doesn't because he wants to keep the attention on

fw give us a sense of what the white house knows as it is monitoring what is going on in kyiv. >> yeah, michael, while the president spends his home in delaware but no doubt, white house officials are watching growing developments, and watching it with concern, i would say, um, as you know we have gotten these really grave warnings from officials for the past week. intensifying, no doubt, in the last few days because of their updated intelligence and prediction after prediction, they are really seeing it come into focus here. so, no doubt, there is concern for the current status of ukraine, its people, and the stability of its government. but also, for president zelenskyy and so, we know that president zelenskyy and president biden spoke today in what the white house said was about a 40-minute call. their first call since they spoke after the real initial fall of -- excuse me, invasion of -- um -- russian invasion of ukraine on thursday. >> president -- in a readout the white house released afterwards, they said that the president really commended the ukrainian people for fighting for their cou

the men who murdered unarmed a black man on aubrey in the state of georgia. travis mc, michael was one of the 3 white men who chased and kill the 25 year old as a was out for running 2020 like michael is due to face trial next week on federal hate crime charges. he's admitted that he pursued aubrey because of his race. all 3 men convicted of march murdering aubrey happened sentenced to life in prison. it is exactly a year since man. most military sees control of the country and estimated 1500 people have been killed by security forces and 9000 arrested and protests against military rule. but as florence louis reports, resistance is still going strong and has been taking many different forms. o major demonstration, since the military to power have now been replaced by smaller, sporadic protests. protest is march quickly through yan gone before dispersing to avoid arrest. others have taken up arms, trading alongside ethnic armed groups in jungle camps. they are part of the people's defense force, an armed resistance group set up by the national unity government. a parallel government formed by exiled l

michael donald's death. >> in mobile, alabama last night, an all-white federal jury hit the united klans of america with $7in damages. the lawsuit grew out of the murder, six years ago, of a young black man, michael donald. >> that was my baby, and nothing they do can bring him back. but i still say i am proud that this came to court. >> we think this verdict sends a very strong message across the country that white southerners, white mobilians, will not tolerate this kind of activity. >> this is a very vicious klan group. >> and i hope the decision of this jury today will put it out of business. >> i didn't want it to happen to nobody else's child like it has mine. you don't know the agony it is, until you go through it. >> there had really been some justice done in this. i was doubtful, though, because had it been up to some people, it wouldn't have advanced far. >> it's not really about a jury award of $7 million. it's not really about getting, if you will, the keys to the klan kingdom. what it was about is that we hold accountable institutions and organizations that propagate hate. and we, as a society

michael. >> very active situation to say the least. alex marquardt in kyiv, thanks so much. let's turn to jasmine wright in washington. jasmine, what are you hearing from the white house as it monitors what's happening in kyiv? >> reporter: well, michael, the president spent his weekend in his home in delaware, but a white house official just told me he is being regularly updated on the developments happening in ukraine and of course keeping in touch with his national security team. but no doubt that white house officials are watching what's happening on the ground in ukraine with really great concern. for weeks now, we have gotten these intensified warnings from white house officials about what could happen in ukraine, and more often than not, they are seeing some of these predictions come into focus here. so no doubt they are concerned not only for ukraine and the ukrainian people and of course the stability of his government as russia looks like it is enclosing to the capital, but also for president zelenskyy himself. now, we know, michael, that president zelenskyy and president spoke in a secure phone call. the white house said it lasted about 40 minutes. it

the men who murdered unarmed black man ahmed aubrey in the state of georgia. travis mac, michael was one of 3 white men who chased and killed a 25 year old as he was out for a run in 20. 20. with my goal is to to say it's trial next week on federal hate crime charges. he's admitted that he pursued abra because of his race. all 3 men convicted of murdering aubrey have been sentenced to life in prison. the hundreds of people have been rallying in the bolivian capital of le pans, calling the war protection for women. the demonstration follows outrage of a serial rapist who received a 30th sentence, killing a woman that was released on medical grounds after a few years in 2019. the man was arrested again last week when the bodies of 2 women were found buried at his home. for just as in peru, demanding the owners of the refinery, that spilt 12000 barrels of oil, leave the country and their accusing the spanish own reps all of down playing the spill after the company initially reported only 6000 barrels leaked. that's all blame to spill on. the sin ami, triggered by the undersea volcanic eruption in tond

durham alleges that michael suszman told the cia about russian-made phones being used near the whitebit complicated. but these are very important details. can you walk us through this. >> yes. the big picture here, brianna, john durham has been saying for a while that the democrats took internet data they believe tied trump to russia, two federal agents including the fbi and cia in 2016 and 2017. what we knew from the original indictment about an internet connection they believe tied trump organization to a russian bank, this new wrinkle, it really is just a wrinkle and it's very vague. in this one durham is saying suszman was speaking to the cia about russian-made phones being used in certain places including the executive office of the office in the white house. so michael sussman hit back last night. this inflamed right wing media is the spying of donald trump. but last night in a court filing called this something that durham was putting in his filing to inflame media coverage and taint the jury pool and said some of the information was wrong, that this data about phones being us

there was a meeting on december 18 in the white house where a trump lawyer name sidney powell, former national security advisor michaeld others entered the white house and pitched president trump on these executive orders, these plans to seize voting machines, but what is new is that donald trump took another step after that. he did not just hear the people out or show interest in it. he directed his personal lawyer rudy giuliani, to contact the department of homeland security to see if they could in fact seize voting machines. he also asked his attorney general, bill barr, if the justice department could seize voting machines. this shows he tried to attempt with two different branches of government to enact this plan to seize voting machines in six different states. >> based on your reporting, barr immediately shot the idea down. how does this put into like his decision to resign later that same month? >> i think bill barr was perhaps at his wits end there at the end of the trump administration. as you know, he was involved in pushing back against somef these very dangerous plans to try to overturn the election, and

new england patriots before leaving the tampa bay buccaneers to the trophy in 2021 and found white that michael shot. he says it's unlikely we'll see anyone like brady ever again. i remember being a younger journalist over a decade ago, and as we were discussing who the goat akron for greatest of all time in the nfl might have been. i remember even back then saying that tom brady was at least in the discussion you know, a decade ago, it was more up for debate. but as the years have passed, he's not only excelled from a championship standpoint, winning morrison walls, and everybody proving that he can win was away from bill bollicheck in new england, patriots. but also is one of the leading passers of all time by almost any metric. so he has shown himself to be not only a fantastic competitor who can win football games, but also can consistently put up numbers even well past the age of 40. the obeys leading team, the phoenix suns have extended their winning strength to 11 games. their latest victory came against the brooklyn. that's 121-2111 devin booker school to 35 points and macau bridges add

now, there was this meeting on december 18th in the white house where a trump lawyer named sidney powell, former national security advisor michaelers entered the white house into the oval office and pitched president trump on these executive orders, these plans to seize voting machines. what's new is donald trump then took another step after that. he didn't just hear e people out or show interest in it, he, one, he directed his personal lawyer rudy giuliani to contact the department of homeland security to see if they could, in fact, seize voting machines, and then he also asked his attorney general bill barr whether the justice department could seize voting machines. so this shows he tried to attempt to two different branches of government to enact this plan to take control of voting machines in six different states. >> reporter: and based on your reporting, barr immediately shot the idea down. how does this put into a new light barr's decision that same month to resign? >> yeah, i mean, i think that bill barr buz at his -- was perhaps at his wits' end there at the end of the trump administration. he was involved in pshing back

that's like being michael moore's personal trainer. a whiteeaving the office but not the family at the end of the month. family? she's really making the government sound like what it is a bunch of mobsters swindling your tax dollars. so she's not working but she has a family. reminds me of pete buttigieg. that's the eighth kamala staffer to resign since the veep took office if she loses one more employee she'll have enough stamps on her make nine employees quit get one free card. who knows maybe her annoying laugh will quit next. maybe it doesn't matter that the speech writer quit she's so good on the fly. >> it is time for us to do what we have been doing and that time is every day. >> never let anybody that you are what they think you should be. you tell her you are and who you know you are and what you intend to be. >> well, there are a whole lot of people especially living in rural communities, there's no kink os, there's no office max near them. >> the government, we campaign with the plans. upper case t upper case p, the plans >> greg: i

wall street journal senior white house reporter michael bender provided a behind-the-scenes look into president trump's 2020 re-election campaign. here's a here's a portion of that conversation. there's no shortage of trump books, right? you could fill a library with books about trump over the last 30 40 years. i've written over a thousand stories about trump just the wall street journal and you know, i wanted to give people something that they a reason to keep turning the pages here. so i do think this book is the only one to date that explains trump with inside the room details from the oval office under the hood of the two billion dollar campaign, exclusive memos text messages and into some of the decision-making process there and and another unique piece of this is is the front rows i effectively embedded for two years with the people who go to 30 40 50 by the end of 2020 60 rallies. and what i wanted to do here was understand. through them a little bit more about this movement. what about them is people as men and women had them coming back again and again effectively see the sam

. >> so, michael, the white house for a while now has been sending pretty ominous warning of a possibility of invasion and that escalated on friday. you were in ukraine for a week or so. give us a contrast as to what you heard there and why do you think zelensky is so quick to go the other way and to really try to tamp down the threat? >> well, for president zelensky this is about not sowing panic. he says we will do russia's bidding for them if we go into a perpetual war footing, it will affect our economy. you have seen commercial airline companies have not been ensured, they're cancelling flights. some might say it is being too naive, it is the politics of thes on stitch. i would call it the politics of those who defended the international airport. their argument is we have been at war for eight years. what putin wants most is political destabilization in kyiv. in january there's a massive cyberattack which took down several government ministries. the week i was there and this wasn't widely reported, there were bomb threats issued to schools including kindergartens outside of kyiv. i ha

more importantly, it seems as though jake sullivan would be the michael flynn equivalent in joe biden's white house was aware or at least knew about it if not acted on it. and he's the guy actually negotiating with russia right now. i mean, think about that for a second. the guy that created the russia bogeyman for the last five years is now the guy apparently dealing with russia on ukraine when we are at the brink of war. you don't think you should know is that? you don't think that this guy made them the world enemy or suddenly an enemy of the united states in the mind of the american people and now is negotiating with it? this is insanity. if we had a real media instead of activists, instead of propagandists, they would be out there asking these questions. instead they are silent. they are literally still bringing up my testimony from five years ago to try to make that into a story when it has been debunked and is totally ridiculous. >> sean: your father would never negotiate with putin while he had a gun to the world's head by putting all his troops and military equipment on the border. h

but he says the alliance has never been more united shep >> kayla tausche live at the white house, thanks. >> michael mcfaul, former u.s. ambassador to russia he met and negotiated face-to-face with vladimir putin and i want to talk sanctions with you, if we could. last week, jen psaki said sanctions are meant to be a deterrent. over the weekend, secretary blinken said sanctions are meant to be a deterrent. today, the president said nobody expected the sanctions to prevent anything from happening. you know, it's semantics, but they said sanctions are a deterrent, they clearly didn't work and they didn't even use all of them. >> well, it's a different phase now, right so let's talk about the other ones they might use, but you wanted to use sanctions as a deterrent before war and that didn't work it obviously didn't work now, you're using sanctions as punishment and let's just be clear before we get into a discussion, will they be effective or not, when there's bad things that happen in the world, you have to have a response and there has to be a punishment even if you don't know if it's going to chang

michael, what more is the white house saying about this new intelligence assessment?s major. >> a stark assessment by the u.s. intelligence agencies. u.s. officials do not believe that vladimir putin has made the decision to move ahead with an invasion, but this assessment offers a really stark picture of how quickly he's capable of executing one if we were to go ahead. this assessment suggests that russia could take the capital of ukraine, kyiv. they've amassed 83 battalionings on ukraine's border, another 14 on their way to join them. at that pace, they are ready for a ground invasion as soon as february 15th. we also include the weather forecast because that is the optimal time for those russian tanks to roll at that stage. according to this assessment, the toll would be significant, as many as 50,000 ukrainian citizens would be injured or killed, 25,000 ukrainian soldiers, and that refugee toll is significant as well, 1 million to 5 million ukrainians potentially displaced throughout europe. something allies would be concerned about. u.s. officials say while an in

officials have had tough words for putin, the white house appears to be trying at least in some part to de-escalate, instead of really matching putin's rhetoric, michael, they instead said putin's threats are part of a wider pattern of unprovoked escalation and manufactured threats. i think the white house press secretary, jen psaki, summed up the white house's stance here today pretty well in the abc interview. take a listen. >> this is a pattern we have seen of vladimir putin through the course of this conflict, which is manufacturing threats that don't exist in order to justify further aggression, and the global community and the american people should look at it through that prism. >> now those comments from jen psaki, which are reflected in other administration officials speaking out today, it comes about after the second time in a week vladimir putin referenced his nuclear arsenal, and threatening the use of the nuclear capabilities, and there's a unified response from allies including canada in their condemnation of russia and the strict sanctions that the u.s. along with their partners rolled out in waves trying to respond proportionately to r

of white defendants being held accountable for the death of michael donald, the stakes could not be highere racial tensions could not be higher. the nation is literally watching. everyone had to have a sense of this being a historical aberration. black people do not get to hold white people accountable for the death of black lives. a criminal trial for folks who are card carrying members of the klan. you'd have a reason to be afraid, a reason to be concerned, and, particularly, when the text and the sub-text of the trial is white supremacy, and american racism. >> today, it was a tense one at the courthouse. a bomb threat was phoned in and a prosecution witness says hays' father threatened to kill him. >> he said if i ever opened my mouth about anything, that i would be dead within eight hours, 24 hours at the most. i was really scared. i moved out of my mother and father's house 'cause when i was started testifying, bennie hays came to my mom and daddy's house, looking for me, to shut my mouth, to keep me from talking. so, when my mother and father went to the store to guy groceries, i wr

michael donald. again and again, we've seen white racists take the lives of black people and do so with impunity, withation, and the seeming permission, of law enforcement. >> bob eddy, he said, "chris, this is a klan killing." you not only had the noose, but the typical klan diversionary tactic, burning a cross on the lawn of the county courthouse. bob eddy, in the course of interviewing witnesses, learned that there had been a meeting on wednesday night, preceding the friday abduction of michael donald. >> three days before michael donald's murder, we had a private meeting, which we would have every wednesday for just klan members. >> bob eddy knew who was at that klan meeting -- tiger knowles, frank cox, teddy kyzar, henry hays, and bennie hays, the second highest ranking klansman in the state of alabama. >> bennie hays is the great titan, which is the third highest ranking official in the united klan. >> bennie jack hays was a hard-nosed business man. he could drop a dime in his pocket and pull out a quarter. bennie jack was a very detailed man. he was pure evil when he set his mind to it. >> henr

if michael sussmann, attorney for hillary clinton coming in with data on donald trump servers in the white, why wouldn't the fbi go, i got to investigate michael sussmann and democrats, how did they get this information? that is a problem. instead, the fbi is part of the scandal and continue the investigation on donald trump and the media reports it. the media is part of this whole overthrow attempt. they are not going to cover the story, i think, until we have more indictments. this is not the end, this is the beginning. when more indictments come, the press will be forced to cover this outrageous story. >> todd: obama advisor david axelrod urging biden to show humility, here is the piece from the times. the largest television audience the president is likely to enjoy this year, the temptation will be to herald his achievements and claim we've navigated the storm. mr. president, proceed with caution. will joe follow this advice or saying everything is awesome? >> sean: quote the lego movie, well done, well done. >> carley: i like that. >> sean: the rumor on the hill, he's waiting until th

let's bring in michael mccaul, the top republican on the foreign affairs committee. they were briefed by the white house earlier today. congressman, always good to have you with us. these are very tense times. what did you take away from the briefing this morning? >> it's very grim assessment. i think the time for diplomacy is running out. the noose is tightening around the neck of ukraine. with 130,000 combat-ready troops on the border now in attack position to invade ukraine, i think it's a matter of days if not hours before they do this. this is really what happens, martha, when you project weakness throughout the world that invites aggression. they've been doing this build-up since last march. we have had no deterrence to stop it. now i'm afraid it's a little too late. we'll will have an invasion that when haven't seen since world war ii. >> martha: here's sergey lavrov talking about more time for diplomacy. listen to this. >> it seems to me that our options are far from exhausted. at this stage, i suggest we continue the talk and build on them. >> martha: is there any indication that the whit
