Beginning right now. Good evening, everyone. Im larry kudlow. I have reagan on my mind tonight. Anyway, were live here at 7 00 p. M. Eastern and 4 00 p. M. Pacific. In a sweeping speech today, president obama urged european allies to stand with the u. S. And do more to isolate russia after its annexation of crimea. John harwood joins us with all the details.
