Summary

Saturday, February 24th marked two years since the Russian invasion of Ukraine. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy remains determined to defeat Russia and continues to request aid and resources from the U.S., urging that a lack of support from President Biden could lead to dire consequences for his country. Though the President announced the U.S. would be implementing more than 500 new sanctions against Russia on Friday, no aid can be sent to Ukraine until a foreign aid package can successfully pass through Congress, which has proven to be a challenge. National security expert Rebecca Grant explains the state of the region two years on. Later, Ukraine’s Ambassador to the U.S. Oksana Markarova discusses the important U.S.-Ukraine relationship. The House has voted to impeach Secretary of Homeland Security Alejandro Mayorkas, the first time a member of the President's cabinet has faced an impeachment since the 1870s. Republican lawmakers are preparing to hold a full Senate trial holding the Biden administration responsible for the crisis at the Southern Border. However, many Washington insiders believe the Senate will likely acquit Secretary Mayorkas. FOX News Senior Congressional Correspondent Chad Pergram explains how a Senate impeachment trial differs from a presidential one and the political implications it brings for both parties involved.
