Intelligence. i dont think they have the boots on the ground intelligence, they dont have the capabilities to really put the impact they want to on the communications system. they would have done that if they had that capability. they just arent as good as we have been led to believe and their performance has been very -- miserable, really. if you look at them from a tactical standpoint, theyre not achieve the tactical objectives. operationally theyre failing as well. they have essentially attac...

Im going to make you talk to me." have i got that right? in a sense, yes. north korea is also showing a show of force here. yes, the economy is really bad. its also showing to the world, despite those things thats going on locally, we still have these capabilities, and we are seeing various range, long range, short range. they are getting faster. some of them can evade detection, the radar detection. so, it is saying to the world that "we are improving and youve got to take notice of us." this a...

Behavior is that adversaries know american military power is in retreat. the biden team has been pushing a die vest to invest. it belongs in a paper shredder. will the pentagon be open to calls for more funding in order to deal with the global threats that are emerging? >> i have to tell you we take fundamental issue with that whole argument. if you look at the budget that president submitted last year you can see that we are actually investing in new technology and new weapons capabilities and ...

What the u.s. was willing to do, and what they were looking into was the possibility of back filling those polish jets in poland potentially with some f-16 fighter jets. now, thats not easily as said as it is done, jose. its not like the u.s. has a bunch of these things sitting around that they can just send over. but they were looking at trying to get some used jets to poland, something to back fill this capability. so poland wouldnt be caught without their air force and without their capabilit...

I do want to ask you, what would a u.s. cyber attack against russia look like? >> so, good news, bad news. good news is we have an incredibly sophisticated, suck es ability against the russians and writ large with regard to cyber capabilities as a nation. not so good, of course, is our defense. are we ready for the retaliation? youve reported, im sure, about major breaches in the past attributed to russia, colonial pipeline, jbs meat processing. beneath the surface, "the new york times" did a gr...

So the preparation for that has been under way in the last year for the broader infrastructure capabilities of the united states. several what seem like boring announcements from the government that told us that they are doing better now about making sure our energy grids and pipelines are protected against cyber attacks. on an individual level, make sure your passwords are more than just your birthday. make sure you enable two factor authentication. and recognize it is less for the individual, ...

Is the right thing to do. the singers are working. they are bringing down russian aircraft. at some point, russia is going to have to try to make a move to stop this defensive equipment from coming in. and again, this is something that nato planners have to make sure that nato borders, nato members are really strong and defensive capabilities and case, you know, russia tries to break down these defensive equipment corridors. >> all right, lets talk about that for a moment. 60% of the refugees ar...

Correspondents for the shining of light on this humanitarian catastrophe that youre doing. well done to you. theres a big difference between taking ground and holding ground. putin has already learned a hard lesson. he came in light, he came in too light expecting he would be able to decisively defeat the ukrainian military, the resistance fighters who are now in large numbers beginning to push back, and he didnt have enough combat power to do that and frankly, the performance of the russian mil...

A little bit, but the argument that he has a privacy interest in his own phone records is not one that usually works in federal court. >> pete, i know youll stay on it. we have pentagon press secretary john kirby, now briefing reporters. lets listen. >> -- in particular anti-armor and air defense. we along with other nations continue to send them these weapons and we know that theyre being used with great effect. the slowed russian advance in the north, and the contested air space over ukraine...

Yeah, so thats what hes saying. its not about moving. its about capabilities. its not going to make them any stronger. well, i mean, we have respect with all due respect, admiral kirby, i think his assessment is completely wrong. ukrainians already have mig 29 and theyre flying very few of them. the reason why is they are saving the bulk of their air defense for an onslaught against kyiv thats going to come any day now. so now look at the convoy weve been talking about this convoy north of kyiv ...
