Holiday shoppers are out because we've got a lull in that snow. But look at what has transpired here in Chicago and across the Midwest. Huge snow systems coming in, historic for this time of year. Really downtown where I'm at about 8 inches plus in total. And what did that cause? Well, a ton of issues locally. We're talking about the airport, o' Hare International, one of the biggest airports, busiest airports in the world. Over 1400 flights canceled as far as traffic goes. Oh, my goodness, a lot of crashes across the Midwest and the state of Iowa. Over 150 reported crashes in Indiana.

A winter weather advisory in Place. Nearly 200 crashes were reported in Iowa. Secretary of State Marco Rubio saying that this weekend's US Ukraine talks on ending the war were productive, but still lots of work to be done. This is delicate, it's complicated. There are a lot of moving parts. And obviously there's another party involved here that will have to be a part of the equation. And that'll continue later this week when Mr. Wytkoff travels to Moscow. The delegations met for about four hours at a golf club north of Miami as they try to create a pathway for a sovereign Ukraine. Special envoy Steve Witkoff is headed to Moscow today. President Trump telling reporters on Air Force One that he spoke to Venezuela's leader Maduro on Sunday but did not share details about their dispute.

I wouldn't say it went well or badly. It was a phone call.

The call comes a day after the president posted an online warning the airlines that airspace over and around Venezuela should be considered closed amid his crackdown on drug smuggling from South America to the US Venezuela's government condemning the statement and accused the president of making a, quote, colonialist threat. America's listening to Fox News.
