8:45 pm
is a message to russia that they are not going to be able to win this easily. at the very outset of this, i said that the russian bear better be very careful because he's about to try to swallow a porcupine. that never works out well for the bear. that's been the case. i put thought he could to cap it. take. ukrainian government turned out he couldn't take the capital. they certainly didn't reckon the president. so his skate and incredible letter dealership that here show. >> definitely. i know here at home that is one of the the most inspiring things for a lot of us here at home to see how the ukrainian people are fighting and with our help and 33 billion more dollars to go towards that hopefully will continue to help them fight that invasion. and congressman germany, thank you so much for joining us this evening. >> thank you, carrie. not. >> the stockton police department has selected a new chief of police stanley make that work.
