Release the migs, the mig aircraft from poland, romania and others. they could use that right now. the russians have nearly 80,000 troops in that area, but it still may not be enough this is the same area the russians have tried to take now for eight years. the ukrainians are dug in. it s trench warfare in some places. they re trying to outmaneuver the ukrainians by enveloping them. what the ukraines appear to have, they can parry each of those blows as they happen. general pittard, so grateful for your insights. thank you so much. thank you, john. up next for us, mask confusion at the highest levels of government. the question whether it will appeal a ruling that tosses out its public transportation mask mandate. cloudy glasses? when detergent alone isn t enough... .add finish jet dry 3 in 1. to dry, prevevent spots,
