0 we'll find out in the days ahead on whether or not russia has the resources. we continue to watch the 40-mile convoy, it sits just outside of kyiv. "fox and friends first" with todd piro and carley shimkus is next. i'm trace gallagher, live from los angeles. >> todd: a fox news alert, the united states taking new action against russia. president biden using his state of the union address to reaffirm support for the ukrainian people. there is a rampage against kyiv. i'm todd piro. >> carley: i'm carley shimkus. we have mike tobin live on the ground in lviv. more on the next steps from nato. >> todd: griff jenkins with more on the key steps left out of biden's speech. griff. >> griff: the president spoke for an hour, drawing bipartisan applause and promising to hold putin accountable, announcing closure of u.s. air space for russian flights. >> president biden: he met with a wall, he met ukrainian people. join ally necessary closing american air space to all russian flights. >> griff: biden vowed to tackle numerous crisis at home from soaring gas prices to the southern border and brought up the defund the police crowd and covid fatigue in front of a suddenly maskless audience >> president biden: secure the board sxer fix the immigration system. the answer is not to defund the police, it is to fund the police. use this moment to reset. stop looking at covid as partisan dividing line. >> griff: iowa governor kim reynolds hammered biden as weak president that left the country in the grip of several crisis. >> you shouldn't have to wake up every morning and worry about it is next thing the government is going to do to you. if we, as elected leaders, are doing our job, it is keeping them safe, not restricting their freedom. >> griff: and republican lawmakers were swift to attack biden over things he failed to address in the speech. >> he didn't acknowledge the crime rate that is soaring, the murder rate or acknowledge the disgraceful surrender oro treat he led. it was a disappointing speech. >> griff: rashida tlaib offering praise, but holding him accountable to progressive demands, we don't usually see that. today the president will head to wisconsin to try to sell his build back better agenda. >> carley: two rebuttals to the state of the union address, a rare thing. in ukraine, russian forces are in kharkiv, sending in paira troopers to invade the city. >> todd: a russian missile has struck a police building. mike tobin has that. >> mike: air raid sirens were wailing over lviv, did not hear an impact as the sirens wrapped up. want to start off talking about the ukrainian national security chief saying plot to assassinate president zelenskyy has been foiled, the assassins have been killed. according to accounts this occurred when fighting was severe around the hostimul airport. the unit was insertd and slipped away during the chaos, the ukrainian authorities learned about them because of russian turn coats who don't support the war, located on the edges of the airport and killed at the edges of the city of kyiv. just after dusk, russian forces hit the state tv tower in kyiv. five people were killed. military medical center in kharkiv to the east of there was hit in the early morning hours, in kharkiv, aftermath when police headquarters were hit. all this among reports russian parngs raatroopers have taken up -- apartment building as russian defense ministry spokesman said in a televised address that the russian have taken kroet of kherson. if you look at the map and what is happening, russian are gaining a foot hold in the coastal towns. kherson has a bridge over the dnieper river connecting the peninsula with the mainland. >> carley: that 40 miles long convoy hasn't moved. is it stationary? sitting target, why isn't ukrainian taking it out? they have tube bomb drones we've seen them use before, seems like something that could do significant damage to the 40 miles long convoy? >> mike: well, you answered part, gave the answer with your question, it is 40 miles long, can each carry four smart weapons each, they can do significant damage to a piece of armor when you have a 40 miles long column. you need a big unit, a big fighter pilot unit like a-10 war hog that the u.s. has would be effective in an environment like that. when you talk about a couple drones, you can make a couple strikes and get out, otherwise you are putting your equipment at risk. you need more air power than the ukrainian have right now. their air power and air field suffered significant damage in the early stages of the invasion. >> todd: mike tobin setting the stage. thank you. let us bring in nigel faragi. it is the question, should nato be doing more and if so, what should they be doing? >> nigel: aircraft, nato have state of the art aircraft, great squadrons, we could, if we chose go in and take out that k4r78, as we does in the iraq war. it is there. it is a sitting duck. it is perfectly clear the ukrainian do not have the air strength to did it. here is the problem, this is biggest and most serious crisis the world has faced since the cuban missile crisis 60 years ago. when we had destruction between nuclear powers, mad, as it was called, the point was both sides thought the other side was rationale. the worry is if nato gets involved in open warfare with putin's nuclear power in russia, how will he respond? that is why nato is doing nothing. it is fear. and emotionally, i feel we should be doing a lot more. i think the ukrainian people, their leader, have shown terrific bravery, way we talk about standing up for liberty, freedom, their country, their independence, there are shades of winston churchill in what they are saying, young men volunteering, taking women and children to safety. it is admir ablg. emotionally, i want us involved, when you think about it, it is one hell of a risk. >> carley: president biden might disagree with you. he made his state of the union address and touted the sanctions he's put forward so far. take a listen. >> president biden: 2000 our allies we are enforcing powerful economic sanctions. we're cutting off russia's largest banks and international financial system preventing central bank from defending the russian ruble. make putin's war fund worthless. >> carley: europe buy russian oil everyday and that oil is soaked in ukrainian blood. >> nigel: biden is following, not leading. we've been used to america taking the lead in international crisis. what has happened boris johnson & johnson, britain, first to put this forward and the germans came into line and america followed, followed on sanctions and air space. the point about oil and gas is well made. oil is trading $110 per barrel this morning. other commodities like wheat have gone through the roof in price and ukraine is a major exporter. the truth is, if we put big sanctions on russian gas, oil and wheat, we also pay a price in return. and at some point, we've got to make the really big decision, are we serious about isolated russia or aren't we? if we are, every one of us when we fill up our car will have to pay a price for that. >> todd: price being paid. pulling products from russia, that is well and good for the countries. what about countries like india, when will they step up to the plate, nigel? >> nigel: i'm not sure. pakistan appears to be almost in alliance with russia, which is concerning. what is more concerning if the war is driving moscow into the arms of beijing, you are right. here is the problem we've got, through globalism, we've become dependent upon each other. without russian gas, german industry is in problems. india, very poor country, low gdp per capita, taking a rather selfish position. the truth of it is, what putin has done is completely and utterly outrageous. he is an international pariah. the oligarchs living in london have publicly turned against him. we have seen one mutiny took place in the russian navy, report of russian soldiers beginning to give up arms and i think where this leads to in the end is big uprising in russia and probably the end of putin. here is the worry and i repeat this point. if putin lost rationale function and when you see him sitting with the nearest person 40 feet away, you wonder what is in his mind. what could a wounded, dying animal do given the nuclear capability he's got. we're in a very, very serious position. >> carley: without a doubt, that is the question of the day and a scary thought. thank you for joining us this morning. >> nigel: thank you. >> todd: back at home to other top story, the president's state of the union met with rave reviews from the mainstream media. listen. >> he is a foreign policy president, that is his skillset. joe biden was joe biden for most of this. >> it was energetic, he was passionate. >> that was genuine. >> uncle joe is back, i'm proud we have a leader like him. >> todd: let's be clear, that is how the media feels, how do everyday americans feel? >> carley: next guest was there after his 2020 address after his brother was killed by an illegal immigrant. jody jones joins us now jody, good morning, sir, president biden said we need to secure our borders and laid out his plan how he is doing that. take a listen to a portion of what he had to say. >> president biden: before advance liberty and justice, we need to secure the border and fix the immigration system. we can do both. we install new technology like cutting-edge scanners to better detect drug smuggling and set up joint patrol to catch more human traffickers. >> carley: jody, the plan is not working, is it? >> no, no. thank you, by the way, for having me. no, it is not. actually, it is the worst it's been down there in history, in history of the united states, the border crisis is the worst ever. it's apparent, everybody knows it. they keep throwing smoke and mirrors at us and tell us everything is good, everything is getting better and it is not, it is getting worse. >> todd: let's face it, his policies have caused free for all at it is border, two years ago when trump was in office, we didn't have this free for all at the border. how was it after the tragedy you suffered through to hear the president say we'll focus on border security? >> well, it's -- again, it's smoke and mirrors. the -- they preach that they're going to fix the problem. they're not fixing the problem. they're not even trying to fix the problem. the vice president went one time, didn't go with the rubber meets the road, tip of the iceberg where she went. they are not trying to help. it is by design, it has to be. they can stop this frchlt day one, this administration came in and flipped president trump's -- everything he did, they tore it down. now look. look what is going on. >> carley: without a doubt. so many americans agree with you, jody. tell us about your brother, rocky jones. the trump administration said if california wasn't a sanctuary state, your brother would be alive today? >> that's a fact. sb54 in california, drove a wedge into local law enforcement and federal ice agents. local law enforcement can't even work with ice to help, if they get arrested and ice wants to deport somebody because they are a criminal and they have committed a crime, they can't do that. their hands are tied now. it is a shame what they have been doing, it's -- i don't know what to say anymore. i have cried out for president biden to fix the problem and he hasn't, it's gotten worse. it breaks my heart because other families are going to suffer because of this, there will be other lives lost. there has been millions of contacts down there and getaways and it is just a shame what is happening down there. he didn't even talk about crime in his speech. crime is getting worse than it has ever been. until we get rid of liberal lawmakers and liberal da's, nothing will get burden. >> todd: i didn't hear joe biden make me confident that killers would be kicked out of the country if they commit a crime. individuals will be here and the scenario you describe, other families will go through sadly. >> yeah, and he talked about gun control. how about talking about holding criminals accountable for their actions? >> carley: without a doubt. >> put them in jail and keep them there like criminals. you can carry a loaded gun and get caught and spend two day necessary jail and you are back out on the street. >> carley: you are right and the avenue that the president did mention crime, he did say we don't want to defund the police and mentioned the two police officers in new york city that were shot and in the next breath he said, hold police officers accountable, came across as an inappropriate time to say that. jody, thank you for hopping on to share your story, we appreciate it. >> thank you for having me. >> carley: absolutely. results still coming in from the first primary election of the midterm, progressives went all in to turn texas blue. we have a live report coming up next. >> todd: jam-packed show covering the president's state of the union speech with rebecca grant, sean duffy, will cain and more dochlt not go anywhere. how bout sushi?
