you can see that there are already long lines forming at check-in points here at the atlanta airport. there are a lot of people here hoping to make it home for a merry christmas, but with the nasty weather and the holiday crowds, there are a lot of folks who just aren t going to make it. we got to the airport and as luck would have it, got out of the car and was hit with a six-hour delay. we were trying to make backup plans for the flight and everything is sold out. unfortunately, if we re not going to make it today, we re not going to make it for the holidays. it s a nightmare for alexis and her seven-year-old son trying to fly out of newark, new jersey to be with family at minneapolis for the holidays. tens of millions who are feeling the effects of an arctic storm system that s delivered dangerous winds, heavy snow and bone chilling temperatures that put more than 200 million americans under a winter weather advisory or warning on friday. the conditions are setting tra
containers. and it s ruffled some feathers on both sides of the aisle. what do you think? agree with you 100% between the state and federal. and this is a result of our government, president biden, leadership in congress has not prioritized the southwest border and why our governor is doing what he s doing. more important, it s a safe bet, safe assumption that this president has not made border security his priority and will not make it a priority. that s why our government has tried to secure our border, and the federal government sued them. we re part of america and a lot of people don t accept that from washington d.c., but this is their border, too. neil: you know, sheriff, i ve had a chance to read at least some of this omnibus spending measure and 500 plus pages, sheriff, but the part allocated to border relief, it amounts to
it has to be putin that has to say i m not going to win this. he starts looking for creating an off ramp for himself. that s the only way out. neil: we should be holding our breath. thanks, rebecca. good seeing you again. thanks, neil. neil: this next senator is on the foreign relations committee. they provide the money for this effort. senator good seeing you. like-wise, neil. so much is included in this omnibus spending measure. first off, are you for that as mitch mcconnell has said there s a lot of good things in there including this aid? there s a lot of things in the bill. they dropped a 4,000 page bill on us yesterday morning. the process itself is quite
spending measure, 1.7 trillion. let s go to rebecca heinrichs right now. rebecca, that aid is pending. it s coming. i don t know whether it will be in the form of this omnibus spending measure. he s going to get it. there s new chiefs in town in the house that will police it more aggressively. what do you think of that? i think it s fine. the concerns are valid. they want to know where the money is going. as general petraeus said, there s oversight measures that were inserted in this omnibus bill for ukraine. that is to the credit of mcconnell and other republicans. all of this senior republicans in the house of representatives who are the most senior on all of the appropriate committees are on the defense for ukraine. they want to learn the lessons from afghanistan and make sure that we re tracking weapons
really quite abysmally for russia even though the lines right now have stabilized. each side is trying to build up forces. something that i think the ukrainians will do much more impressively once again than the russians as they have since the beginning of this invasion and war. they re fighting for their independence. russia is fighting for causes that their soldiers don t really completely understand. neil: general petraeus, thank you. if we don t talk again, hope you have a merry christmas. thanks for being here. thanks, neil. neil: general david petraeus. moments away from seeing something pretty historic for the first time, president zelensky of ukraine is out of ukraine throughout the war. he s refused to leave the country. again, much of the aid depends on the approval of the omnibus
