blah, blah from ted cruz laying blame at president biden s feet for what s happening over there on the border of ukraine and russia. let s listen to senator tom cotton and whatever this is he had to say about all this. but for four years when we had a republican president who democrats like joe biden accused of being in vladimir putin s pocket, for some reason vladimir putin didn t invade ukraine. it s because the only way to confront aggressive autocrat like putin or xi jinping is to show strength from the very beginning. that s the way to deter the kind of conflict that is likely about to happen in ukraine. tara, what s he talking about? let s go back to the videotape, shall we? if it really means showing strength means kissing the ask of vladimir putin and xi jinping and kim jong-un, well, then i
tara, nicolas, and renee are back with me. so, san francisco mayor london breed was on meet the press this morning and she was asked about those three school board members who were school board members who were overwhelmingly recalled. let s play it and we ll talk about it on the other side. this is not a democratic and republican issue. this is an issue about the education of our children. and i think that ultimately it s important that anyone who serves in any capacity, whether it s school board or congress or as mayor, it s important to respond to what your priority is as a mayor or as a school board member, and that is the role you were put in the office to do. so in this particular case, the board neglected their primary responsibility to focus on other things. and, you know, renee, this goes back to what i asked
a republican leader in the fall. nicholas, as tara said on this air and it blew my mind a few weeks ago, the next republican leader in the house will be jim jordan, not kevin mccarthy. thank you all very much for coming back to the sunday show. before we go, a special thank you to our amazing production assistant emily plessett, congrats on your promotion, we wish you much success and i ll miss you. we ll be right back. h success and i ll miss you. success and i ll miss you. we ll be right back. timber. fortunately, they were covered by progressive, so it was a happy ending. for almost everyone.
implementing this disconnect from the s.w.i.f.t. system for the russian banks, especially the russian central bank, which we know houses a lot of the resources that putin is going to be relying upon for this war he s inflicted and initiated in ukraine. i do think, though, that the impact of swift is going to be much swifter than the other sanctions. as some reporters have been saying out of moscow, i saw a report that they asked him to settle his bill early because they weren t sure if the credit card machines would be working. this is something that s going to impact companies, businesses, and individuals who have their money in these banks as well and their ability to access their own funds. and then, tara, there s this kind of age-old phrase i should say, right, where politics stops at the border. but that s not happening. the republican party here in the united states praising to a
president is the best thing that ever happened, tragically, for vladimir putin. amnesia. senator ted cruz today laid the blame for the ukraine russia standoff at president biden s feet. and honestly he s not the only one seemingly frustrated right now. translator: we don t need your sanctions after the bombardment will happen, and after our country will be fired at, or after we will have no borders, and after we will have no economy or parts of our countries will be occupied. why would we need those sanctions then? kicking off my sound-off panel for the week, tara setmeyer for the lincoln project, former republican communications director. nicolas wu, congressional reporter with politico. and rene graham, columnist and associate editor at the boston globe. thank you all very much for coming back to the sunday show. so, we just heard that blah,
