advantage, and those that kind of armament that they re getting from the u.s. has tipped the scales in ukraine s favor, but they need so much more of it because without those sort of things, the russians are a much stronger army. they have much larger artillery, and the ukrainians are really fighting with the bare minimum here, so the more that they can get, the more that they want, but they want much harder armament as well, and they keep also saying, we want the skies closed because we don t have an advantage over the skies, over the russians. when they send missiles and fighter jets, it s very difficult for the ukrainians to defend themselves against that kind of russian hardware. when you see the devastation, it s no mystery why they re asking for that. ali arouzi, thank you so much for your reporting today and spending time with us. really grateful to you. thank you. julia, i want to bring you into this conversation on this. it s inescapable. i m not assigning any blame, but
call but only person that knows what pence said is pence and to our knowledge didn t brief the aides including people close to him, long time trusted associates on what he said on that conversation. one thing we are told about that conversation that i think is worth highlighting is some of the people in the room with trump hearing trump s side were shocked when they realized that pence was pushing back against trump. first time the folks had actually heard pence be essentially anything from deferential to trump and unusual and jarring to hear him or the president responding to what he said in a mode that seems totally foreign to them. that said what we know now is even though pence pushed back against trump he tried to do it
his plan he said on the january 10th call to approach the president and tell him it was inevitable that congress would impeach him. he invisioned telling trump of a resolution. i think this will pass and it would be my recommendation you should resign. i ve had it with this guy. nobody can defend that. and nobody should defend it. he has since denied claims he said he d push donald trump to resign. it didn t matter. mccarthy went to mar-a-lago and as congressman and committee member adam kinzinger putt it they took the picture to resurrect donald trump s political life. two weeks after he told republican leadership that trump s remarks on the 6th not right by any shape or form.
