FIRST ON FOX: Rep. Michael McCaul, R-Texas, told Fox News Digital that he is traveling to the Poland-Ukraine border this weekend in order to stand with refugees escaping Putin's "evil" and "unprovoked war of aggression."

The congressman will be joining a small bipartisan group of lawmakers traveling to Poland to assess the humanitarian crisis as the Russia-Ukraine war intensifies.

McCaul, the top Republican on the House Foreign Affairs Committee, said that he wants to get a firsthand look at the "humanitarian catastrophe" caused by Putin's unprovoked and deadly invasion in Ukraine.

In addition, earlier Friday, McCaul discussed with Fox News' Harris Faulkner the need for "spine and imagination" from the United States as the war between Russia and Ukraine escalates.

"We need some imagination and some spine. Right now we got 40 miles of the convoy of all of their tanks. They're really sitting ducks. Why can't we come up with some plan to take them out, and it would avoid this, what's going to be a really bad scene, bad images coming out of Ukraine and a lot of destruction and death."

"They're getting drones from Turkey, and I want to look at all options on the table. We're going to be meeting with the 82nd Airborne over there to see what can we do creatively, to get weapons and to stop this nightmare from going forward," he said.
