Russian leader Vladimir Putin claims he was ready for hard questions from Tucker Carlson when they sat down for their interview.

"He is a more experienced, predictable person, a politician of the old school," the Russian president said of Biden.

On early Tuesday morning, the Senate approve a foreign aid package worth $95 billion to, in part, continue to fund Ukraine's military.

Tucker Carlson offers a comparison between the leadership of Russian leader Vladimir Putin and that of President Joe Biden.

Tucker Carlson's trip to Russia included not only a meeting with Putin, but also with two Americans whose names are well known.

"He's a kid," Carlson said, "and maybe he was breaking your law in some way, but he's not a super spy and everybody knows that."

The two met for a wide-ranging 2-hour interview touching on numerous topics, most notably, of course, the war in Ukraine.

"There is a yearning for leaders who can kill and imprison their opponents, destroy the press, lead a life that is one of impunity."

A Kremlin representative says Carlson's approach with Vladimir Putin is "in no way pro-Russian, it is not pro-Ukrainian - it is pro-American.”

CNN Host Erin Burnett accuses Tucker Carlson of being a Putin supporter simply because he's going to interview the Russian president.
