OF WAR WITH UKRAINE. THE
KREMLIN RESPONDING TO PRESIDENT
BIDEN’S WARNING SAYING IT’S FED
UP WITH THREAT ABOUT AN ATTACK
AFTER RUSSIA SAID IT WAS
PULLING BACK FORCES. BUT THIS
MORNING THE U.S. CLAIMS NEW
IMAGES SUGGEST THE OPPOSITE.
ABC’S IKE A JOCKEY IS IN
WASHINGTON WITH THE LATEST.
>> THIS MORNING, THE RUSSIAN
MILITARY RELEASING THESE VIDEOS
CLAIMING ITS FORCES ARE
WITHDRAWING FROM UKRAINE’S
BORDER. BUT NEW SATELLITE
IMAGES FROM PRIVATE SECURITY
FIRM ACTS ARE SHOWS RUSSIA’S
CNTINUED MILITARY BUILDUP NEAR
UKRAINE. THE WHITE HOUSE

INTELLIGENCE OFFICER SAYS
ADDITIONAL ARMORED VEHICLES,
HELICOPTERS IN THE FIELD
HOSPITAL ARE MOVING TOWARD
UKRAINE’S BORDERS. THOSE

UNITS HAVE BEEN MOVED INTO

BETTER INTERNET SERVICE AND

SURPRISE. MORE DIFFICULT TO
PULL OFF. WE HAVEN’T SEEN A
PULLBACK WOULD LIKE TO SEE ONE.

BIDEN ADMINISTRATION TO
OVERTURN THE PRESIDENT’S
FEDERAL MASK MANDATE FOR PUBLIC

WITH ONE OF THE PRESIDENT’S
KEY CAP. KEY COVID-19 HEALTH
MEASURES. IN A STATEMENT, TEXAS
ATTORNEY GENERAL KEN PAXTON
DESCRIBED THE MEASURE AS
DISRESPECTFUL TO THE U.S.
CONSTITUTION. THE STATE’S
LAWSUIT ALLEGES BIDEN’S ORDER

WANT THE COURT TO ISSUE A
PRELIMINARY INJUNCTION AND
PERMANENT INJUNCTION.
