Simple. that is when the pentagon called me shortly after it took action because lake huron is in my district. number one, decisive action, using the right equipment, the f-16, using the right type of munition to do the takedown. but now the big part, as was mentioned by kylie a minute ago, is the recovery piece to understand. now, lake huron is very, very cold this time of year. theyre going to have to do some special diving capabilities to get down there. the good news is lake huron is not tha...

The US is working closely with iallies and partners to develop new basing opportunities in the Indo-Pacific, according to a DoD official.

Russia, we obviously should be concerned. and i think weve made it clear -- the president has made it clear, and dod has made it clear that were not going to allow incursions into our airspace. if china wants to put something up, a balloon in some cases or maybe possibly whatever this object was, its going to cost them because we will defend our airspace, and i think thats the right call because thats the way you actually stop this kind of encroachment from happening, is you make it clear it wil...

Cant allow something like that again. so is it a response to political pressure? possibly. i doubt, though, that d.o.d. would recommend shooting something down because of the politics of it. i would think at this point were making it very clear you basically got one chance to fly something over our country, and after that, youre not going to make it in. >> appreciate your time. thanks so much. i want to get perspective from james clapper. also william cohen, who served as defense secretary. how ...

Whats happening to these kids? i think this has to happen absolutely. >> i agree with that. and ill tell you, one of the things congress should dod i immediately and i will introduce legislation to d pareno is to give parents dod victims the right to sue these doctors, these clinicsctsn and any other participants thesd who have forced sterilization on these kids who have forced e kids.s muchnts on thess an they ought to be able to go to court and sue them for damages as much as they can get in f...

Is you make it clear it will be a waste of money because were going to take it down. >> do you think some -- i mean, you were sort of indicating this. the argument is, well, it was at commercial air traffic level. it does seem like some of the reaction to this may have been just based on the criticism the biden administration received for waiting on the chinese spy balloon. >> its certainly possible, but its also -- you look at, you know, did they gather intelligence when the spy balloon came ov...

Lawmakers are calling on the Biden administration to tell the truth about the Chinese spy balloon program, following a hearing examining the DoD’s response.

Handled this object? >> its obviously surprising, jake. who would think wed have another unidentified object, if you will, flying throughout our airspace. i think its good that the administration reacted quickly and shot it down. but im curious to find out more about it. i think as your tf noted, dod has moved to the site, im sure securing it to begin the debris collection and it will make a matter of days to get it back to a facility so we can learn more. whats curious about this and i know eve...

Original one down last week. initially they were worried about the debris field that would be expansive over miles. smaller balloon, smaller debris field on the ground. also they shot it down over water, frozen water now. that would also mean there would potentially be less likelihood of civilian casualties or injuries or infrastructure damage down below. i suspect those were three of the reasons this was taken down much faster. another thing i was interested in, and i dont have the answer to th...
