And fighting between Russia and Ukraine intensifies as Ukraine is running critically short of American-made Patriot missile interceptors.

So what other air power options do they have? And can a possible increased production of these interceptors keep pace with the rising global demand? Well, retired Brigadier General John Teichert will be joining us to discuss that and the latest details in the negotiations to end that war.

Plus, a new report from the Institute for Family Studies finds that it's not just economic factors that shape the birth rates in the U.S., but faith, family, friends, and Even celebrity culture influences it all.

Well, one of the authors of this report, Dr. Lyman Stone, will be joining us to unpack all the findings in that report.

The latest wave of Russian missiles and drone attacks across Ukraine certainly underscores Kyiv's urgent need for more American-made Patriot missile interceptors, which Ukraine is critically low on.

While Ukraine waits for the promised deliveries of these, which, by the way, are stalled pending U.S. approval, they are relying heavily on F-16 fighter jets to try to counter Russian drones and working with American manufacturer Lockheed Martin to strengthen both its fighter fleet and its Patriot supplies.

But how much can aircrafts help Ukraine to defend its skies? That's a huge question, and joining us now to discuss this is retired Brigadier General John Teichert.

He's a former combat pilot and former Assistant Deputy Undersecretary of the Air Force for International Affairs.

Ukraine claimed the attack took out 40 Russian aircraft, including Tu-22 and Tu-95 bombers.
