and wildlife biologist forest galante. thanks for being here. there s this website, trackingsharks.com. they say the numbe suspected shark bites this summer has already surpassed last year s total. why are sharks biting us more? well, specifically in the northeast, alisyn, what s going on is there have been increased bunker regulations, which is a small species of bait fish. as that fishery has rebounded from near collapse, what s that done is brought in a whole lot more predators. we re seeing more dolphins, more whales, and of course more sharks. with more sharks comes a higher likelihood of an encounter with a shark and occasionally those encounters happen to be negative. thank you. that is really helpful in explaining what is going on. do you think that the plan for using drones to spot sharks before they can bite swimmers will work? i absolutely do. i mean i think that it would take a lot of drone coverage at
places to both the embassy staff and american citizens gather or safe haven, you know, i was encouraged and i can t verify, but i was reading in the new york times, that the first embassy, or i should say u.s. government organized evacuation was occurring yesterday, in buses out of khartoum, and i read that the gathering point, as we always designate, was a golf course, quite close to the embassy. i actually played that golf course when i was there. and it talked about buses were going to go and head to port sudan and there would be aerial drone coverage to assist in the security. i m glad you talked about, this because i do want to play quickly some sound from secretary of state antony blinken on thursday, regarding the government s efforts to get americans out. listen. as we ve looked at this, we
that region agree this is an sos. they re begging the administration for help. there s some in the republican party that have been saying we re going to i m people dhs secretary alejandro mayorkas. it is a priority for some of them. we ll see if leadership goes with that. if nothing else, they re going to have hearings about how this thing has become so porous. you can t have leaders from either party ever standing up in recent years and say the border is secure. nobody buys it. they see the actual reality. we have amazing crews down there working around the clock with their drone coverage and they re on the ground coverage. they see it and you can t tell people not to believe their lying eyes. sandra: shannon, what about the investigations? we have seen some of these newly elected members of congress, republicans have pushed back on the idea that they re going to get tied up with those investigations. they say voters brought them in for issues and they don t want to focus on that. w
what the american people concern about. you don t stand up for law and order. we do. steve: to our earlier pointed, there are some channels that simply do not address a lot of things going on. what channel has drone coverage of what s going on on our southern border? what channel actually talks about soft on crime and how crime has very little consequences these days? who is else is talking about inflation? who else is talking about supply chain stuff. look, cnn and msnbc are both doing the 8500 troops massing on the border. weave did that. look cbs is doing the market. we did that. but we re the only ones that really follow the crime. it s starting to get under the president s skin because it is impacting his poll numbers. right now it looks like it s going to be a blood bath come november. unbelievable they are not talking about this issue. like you said, brian, 81% of americans are really concerned about it, because people are aware of what is happening in their neighborhoods. t
process does take some time. and then there is a practical limitation. some republican lawmakers have said that they would like to see the ukrainians get so-called targeting intelligence. the kind of exquisite live motion video that we saw the united states be able to use so effectively in campaigns in fan iraq and syria. that comes from drones. by all accounts, our sources say the united states is not running the same kind of 24/7 drone coverage in ukraine. a contested air space, that it was in places where the united states had uncontested air superiority and of course, was itself a party to the conflict. at the end of the day, or in other words, like the kind of intelligence some of the republican lawmakers are asking for, it might not be something the united states even has to give. all right. thank you both. really appreciate i. let s discuss all of this and
