neil: senator steve daines, thank you very, very much.epublican in on that phone call with ukrainian president zelenskyy. fair and balanced now, a democrat who was also in on that phone call, the former vice presidential candidate for the democratic party of virginia, democrat tim kaine. senator, good to have you. >> neil, very glad to be with you today. thanks. neil: senator, apparently president zelenskyy, he brought up the whole no-fly zone thing. obviously, he's maybe given up on that, frustrated by that, but he was asking for more lethal aid. did he spell out to you what lethal aid would be? >> neil, he didn't, but i think we know what he needs. you know, we've done $3 billion worth of defensive military aid to ukraine since 2014, a billion in the last year. but you're going to see congress likely in the next two weeks probably do another $5-8 billion of military aid. in the last year it's really switched heavily towards anti-tank and anti-aircraft defense capacity. but we're going to dramatically increase that, and i think there is

in progress for security reasons, but as you know, some republican senators, like marco rubio, steve daines screen graphs during this call, which congressman dean phillips called appalling, reckless ignorance by two senators. did you observe that during the call as well? what can you tell us about this? what's your sense as to what happened there? >> you know, i got to sort of sense it might have been taking place where -- when the ukraine's ambassador to the united states who initiated the call came on and reminded lawmakers not to do that. so i assumed at that point that was taking place. you know, at this point in time -- >> like the ambassador noticed tweets were happening and said at that point, please, don't tweet during the call? >> well, you know, i think the u.s. ambassador made it clear. you know, please don't talk about or communicate what's happening while this call for security reasons and they left it at that. look, at this point in time, you just hope no damage was done. and we have a mission to do. the landscape is changing behind us, and we move on besides, despite unfortun

steve daines calling it a band-aid on a bullet wound.on, bring us up to speed on where the white house is on this initial pushback here and the bottom line on how all this can save people who drive under these new moves. >> reporter: just to put these numbers in context a little bit, whether or not it's a drop in the bucket i guess depends on how big the drop is and how big you consider the bucket. 180 million barrels is what the president is committing from the strategic petroleum reserve. in context, the u.s. consumes about 7 billion barrels of oil a year. so 180 million out of about 7 billion consumed every year. so the administration admits this is not a long-term solution. the president was asked directly how does he think this is going to affect gas prices. he said i don't know. he suggested you could see prices go down maybe 35 cents a gallon but it's hard to tell because this is a global market and a lot also has to depend on what other countries including the u.s. allies are going to do as far as stepping up their supply. but th

senators marsha blackburn, john boozman, tom cotton, steve daines, joni ernst, chuck grassley, cynthia lummis and roger marshall have all cosponsored my proposal. i'm asking to pass the exact text, the exact text that both democrats and republicans have already agreed to this. we can send this to the him's desk today. by holding this hostage in the omnibus, senator schumer is forcing even further delays. the omnibus won't go to president biden's desk until next week. the people of ukraine are in the fight for their lives. and their freedom. every day the senate waits to send american aid, weapons and resources to help them is another day that they're fighting against this russian invasion is even made more difficult. there is no reason we can't vote on this aid package now and pass it today. waiting even one more day puts more lives at risk. let's act now to protect global freedom from putin's tyranny. i will turn it over to senator roger marshall. mr. marshall: mr. president. the presiding officer: the senator from kansas is recognized. mr. marshall: thank you, senator scott, for lead
