President Biden says he will address the Colonial Pipeline hack directly with President Putin as some evidence shows the hackers are based in Russia. EamonJavers brings us the latest on the ransomeware attack.

AAA forecasts prices will continue to rise as much of the Colonial Pipeline, which transports about 45% of the East Coast's fuel supply, remains offline.

"AAA forecasts gas prices to climb this week in reaction to the shutdown of the Colonial Pipeline," the road travel organization said in a statement. "The longer the pipeline is offline, the larger the impact on the east coast." "This shutdown will have implications on both gasoline supply and prices, but the impact will vary regionally," said AAA spokesperson Jeanette McGee, noting that Mississippi, Tennessee and the Eastern Seaboard from Georgia into Delaware could experience limited availability and price increases.
