It's Tuesday, November 19th, 2024, handing Trump World War III on the way out the door,

dispatches from the Keystone State, and meet the new Secretary of the Department of Energy.

Next on the AM update.

President Biden has authorized Ukraine's military to use U.S. provided long-range missiles on targets inside Russian territory. The senior U.S. officials speaking to various media outlets,

including Fox News, said the weapons will mostly focus on the Kursk region of Western Russia. The decision was first

reported by the New York Times. According to the official, Biden's decision was spurred by the

Russian decision to invite 10,000 North Korean soldiers into the fight against Ukraine in Kersk.

A second official told Fox, it's unclear if Biden plans to approve the use of the missiles

outside of the Kersk region.

Russian President Vladimir Putin had previously said that the U.S.'s approval of such missile

strikes would constitute an act of war. He has yet to react to Biden's announcement coming

over the weekend. To me, this is just a pretty reckless heightening of tensions amidst the

backdrop of Donald Trump,

who everyone expects to be able to accomplish some sort of deal to wind this war down.

It does need to be wound down.

I'll remind you just a couple of months ago, Russian President Vladimir Putin said in no uncertain terms

that if U.S. weapons were used by Ukraine to strike targets within Russia proper,

that would be an act of war and Russia would consider itself at war with the United States

as well as the rest of NATO.

Definitely a story to keep an eye on.
