to russian gas, but it also helps to combat climate change. . clean l&g. disrupting dirty russian gas, lowers global carbon emissions. it s a win, win, win. i don t understand why we re even hesitating to have this conversation. cozying up to venezuela, iran, saudi arabia to ask for more oil with those who will take our phone calls. there s a lot of pushback on what s happening there. but, neil, thank you for your time, we appreciate it. thank you for having me. live reporting from ukraine coming up. plus, some of the big headlines of the week, that s next.

and then he engaged in a number of behaviors, all that benefit vladimir putin and russian influence and russian objectives. and it s hard to find one thing this president has done to stand up for america and against russian interests in a variety of different ways. the kurds are the most recent example. it begins to raise the question, why is the president of the united states so interested in cozying up to vladimir putin and making excuses for their attack on our democracy, trying to explain away their interference in our election? why? i think that s a fair question for the american people to be asking. appreciate it, thank you very much. just ahead i ll talk with a senator who has had a distinguished military career about president trump s syria policy and what comes next. who wanted to connect.hisy and find inspiration in new places. leading them to discover: we re woven together by the moments we share. everything you need, all in one place. expedia.
intelligence agencies. the president stood in helsinki and said, no, no, i believe vladimir putin, not the u.s. intelligence community. and then he engaged in a number of behaviors you just described, all that benefit vladimir putin and russian influence and russian objectives. and it s hard to find one thing this president has done to stand up for america and against russian interests in a variety of different ways. the kurds are the most recent example. it begins to raise the question, why is the president of the united states so interested in cozying up to vladimir putin and making excuses for their attack on our democracy, trying to explain away their interference in our election? why? i think that s a fair question for the american people to be asking. appreciate it, thank you very much. just ahead i ll talk with a senator who has had a distinguished military career about president trump s syria policy and what comes next.
is what the president said. he said, i say welcome to it. ws welcome to it senator. why does the president always seem to side with putin? that is a very good question, and all i know is that the president of the united states took vladimir putin s words over our intelligence community when it came to the first reports that we were dealing with about interference in the 2016 elections. he seems to give vladimir putin the benefit of the doubt time and time again. you know, we had won the cold war against russia, and now we see an american president cozying up to russia and undoing so much of the work we ve done. nobody should think that the united states will be safer if russia is in control of syria. senator maggie hassan, thank you so much for your insight and also, of course, your words about our men and women in military who you visited in afghanistan. thank you so much. thank you.
different and divergent phase of lindsey graham and jeff flake. both men were senators when donald trump was elected. lindsey graham tweeted if donald trump were our nominee, we ll be destroyed and well deserved. after he was elected, lindsey graham became trump s best friend, his golfing partner and jeff flake was an opponent of his. jeff flake decided he could not win without cozying up to donald trump. that s the end of his career here in the senate. lindsey graham today, his approval number in the republicans party in south caroline have never been higher. we are not going to see anything different from republican lawmakers on how they respond to president trump. this is not a faction of the republican party now. it is the republican party as it is currently constructed with the leadership and the members it had.
