alarming? >> i wouldn't say it's alarming. russian intelligence collection vessels are often off the coast of the united states. they often go to places look the ballistic missile submarine bases down in kings bay, georgia and go all the way up to groton, connecticut. however, there's something that should be known here. the deployment of the vessel happens to coincide with a period of time right after u.s. intelligence kicked out 35 signals intelligence collectors from the united states last december, which involved general flynn's phone call. there appears that the russians either advertently or inadvertently may have a collections gap that they felt was krcritical and collect it o the united states coast or the russians may be just makinging ploy to make it appear that way.
