landslide to a trump-backed election denier. i m brianna keilar with john berman this morning. cheney was defeated last night by more than a two to one margin, the surest sign yet that donald trump still has a stranglehold on the soul of the republican party. for now cheney will continue to serve as vice chair of the january 6th committee and whatever the future holds she vows to do everything in her power to keep the former president from ever returning to office. two years ago i won this primary with 73% of the vote. i could easily have done the same again. the path was clear. but it would have required that i go along with president trump s lie about the 2020 election. that was a path i could not and would not take. it is not clear what cheney plans to do once she leaves congress. the woman who defeated her harriet hageman, had this to say in her victory speech. wyoming has drawn a line in the sand that if we put you in power you will be accountable to us, you will a
the north through south korea, just south of that, through, ultimately, the philippines, and then it curves around, willie, down to australia. so you really have a band of u.s. logistics capability that we could move forward if we had to, for example, defend south korea, defend japan, defend taipei, taiwan. all of those become real possibilities. hooked to that, willie, is the stand-up of the first new u.s. marine corps base in 70 years. that one is a little ways back. that s in guam. it s called camp blaze. the commandant of the marine corps has been in asia this week talking about that new base as well as the new basing arrangements in the northern philippines. it s smart strategy and tactics. from your experience, admiral, do all of these moves put together signal the united
logistics. and my ten days on the ground, i got to see this firsthand. the big issue, really, is distances. you re talking about, essentially, a huge, huge area out here that s trying to cover this entire area here. this is a very, very big area. and what s going on is, unfortunately, they re trying to take out these bridges, but they don t have sufficient logistics, firepower, to really overwhelm the troops. remember, the russians have been digging this area now, dug in this area now for six months. they re in hardened position. and normally, american doctrine says that you need to outnumber, if you re conducting an offensive operation, you need to outnumber the defenders that you re fighting by a three to one ratio. they don t have that. they don t have the logistics capability to sustain that. they don t have the personnel. now, what they are doing, though, is they re doing everything they can to knock out these bridges, and that s really a good thing, and as melissa
we are building a logistics capability, to support the government in understanding how we can get the relief supplies to those people in need. we are voluntarily require the generosity of donor governments and the public at large, to support the work that we do in these situations and i know very well, how difficult it is at this time, everybody is cash strapped, energy prices are up, and patient is up in all the countries so we know there is a huge amount of needle over the world but i the photographs and pictures you have shown this morning demonstrate just how great the situation is here in pakistan, and we do urge the listening public, to be generous, and urge the government and any other governments, to support an appeal which is going out tomorrow, it will be launched by the secretary general for $161 million.
distances involved. they are unfortunately evacuating their equipment all the way to poland. if your car broke down in washington, brianna, you wouldn t take it to chicago to get serviced and that s essentially what they re doing. the other issues coming up is winter is almost upon us here, a couple months and that brings a whole new set of logistics challenges. finally, if they want to conduct offensive operations they are going to have to stockpile logistics far forward, they are going to have to dramatically increase and improve their logistics capability if they are going to be successful in essentially getting the russians all the way out of ukraine and hopefully crimea soon thereafter. are they interested in hearing this? when you re discussing things with them are they taking this counsel? i think so. they are very interested in helping us. they know that they need help. united states and our logistics power is a profound element of our national power and they recognize the
