unfortunately, that's all the time we have left this evening. thank you for joining us and to sean and his team. i appreciate being here. before we go, check out get tammy bruce streaming on fox nation and find me on locals@tammy bruce.locals.com. sean is back on monday. have a great weekend. the ingraham angle is up next. >> i'm jason in for laura ingram. this is a special edition of the ingraham angle. tonight, a school administrator says he was put on leave for exposing the district's critical race theory teachings. he's here to tell his story. and president biden forced to restart a trump era policy on illegal aliens. tom and brandy judd will join us with that on the border crisis. plus, the biden administration creates a task force investigating ufos. we'll talk with one expert who

says there's an urgent discovery we need to make. but first, a new variant, a wall street plunge, and a travel ban. the world health organization today warning about a new covid variant of concern. most prevalent in south africa, it's called omicron. new fears over the economic impact of it sent the dow plunging into its biggest single day drop all year. but don't worry. joe biden has a plan. >> i decided that we're going to be cautious and make sure there's no travel to and from south africa and six other countries in except for american citizens that are able to come back. we don't know a lot about the variant except it is a big concern. >> it seems oddly similar to the travel restrictions donald trump put into place for china at the start of covid.

here's what joe biden had to say about it then. >> well, you know, we have right now a crisis with a controversy from china. this is no time for donald trump's record of hysterical xenophobia to -- and fear mongering to lead the way instead of science. >> joining me now is dr. jay botacharia, stanford school of medicine professor. doctor, thank you for joining us tonight. so, should we be running into panic mode over this new variant of concern? >> absolutely not. what we know so far is that there's less than 100 cases identified in south africa. the variant reported by the doctors there suggest the cases are milder, like pretty mild. there's been no hospitalizations or deaths from the variant.

the cases also presumably -- they're saying that the cases are -- this is a more infectious variant. that's not the important thing. does it escape natural immunity or vaccine immunity. there's no indication whatsoever that's true. the panic is unwarranted. we should wait to see what the data show. >> well, it was just this morning -- i mean, literally the same day as what the president said would take more vaccines, get more out there. and to put this travel ban in place. but it was earlier today that dr. fauci was saying we really don't know and we don't know if it will evade vaccines. so it feels like it's politics be it in front of the actual science. the scientists who were saying just a few hours beforehand not to do these things or they weren't necessarily warranted. >> yeah, i agree. the travel ban itself makes no sense to me. there was a case, actually, identified in belgium of this

variant from a traveller from egypt. so, if it's there, it's already out there. the travel ban didn't work before. the lockdowns didn't work before for things that are presumably less infectious than this one -- this variant. why would anyone think they work now in all the travel bans will do is cause distress and harm for really no good purpose. i think the key thing, good public health professionals here would say there's no reason for panic. this is something we're tracking. this is an rna virus. it gets variants all the time. most of them don't take off and conquer all of -- infect everybody. it's not every variant is like delta. actually most of them produce no effect. they have a blip up and then go away. we should give people that message. it's something worth looking at, but nothing worth panicking about. and we should continue to move forward, you know, vaccinate the

vulnerable and those who have not been vaccinated yet and return the best we can to normal life knowing that we have the tools now to start to address this pandemic. >> yeah, if you look at the difference between michigan, for instance, and florida, florida has led the way in the lack of transmission along the way. but their rules with how you engage with this variant -- with covid, are so totally different, that if there was such urgency, doctor, in making sure we put this travel ban in place right away, why wait until monday. other countries did it today. >> i actually don't think it was worthwhile for other countries or for us to do it. the problem is, this is a virus that spreads easily. this is a global pandemic. trying to put travel bans in place to try to stop it and isolate ourselves, to what end, what purpose? the president said we have to do this in case or to be safe.

the problem is, it hasn't worked before. given the biology of the virus, not likely to work now. and it causes harm. that means it's bad policy. it's further along. found in places like belgium and travel from egypt. so, what makes you -- the president or anyone think that this travel ban would actually work. instead, what we should be doing is the kinds of policies that protect the vulnerable, that's quite important, even when -- as the winter wave comes through. make sure that the vulnerable are vaccinated, make sure that monoclonal antibodies are in place to treat patients who get covid. and for the rest of society, open schools, start to address the fear and the panic in the population as opposed to stoking it, which is what people are doing with this variant. i think it's an enormous public health messaging mistake to create panic over the variant. there have been variants --

there have been several variants since delta. and we should be tracking the data carefully, but not creating public panic over something where so far the signals look like it doesn't produce more severe disease and it doesn't evade immunity. >> doctor, thank you for sharing your expertise with us tonight. we appreciate it. thank you. joe biden is so proud of himself on how much time he spent making a decision about the omicron variant. look what he had to say about it today. >> about a half-hour this morning with my team led by dr. fauci which you know is -- (indiscernible). >> monday, why not do it now? >> that was the recommendation. >> wow, 30 whole minutes. that's all the time it took to put a travel ban on, i believe, it was eight countries and the president said it was six.

but it's just two-countries. joining me now is mercedes schlapp, trump 2020 senior advisor and senior fellow for the conservative union foundation. and mike huckabee, 2016 presidential candidate and former arkansas governor. thank you, both, for joining us tonight. governor, i'm going to play you some sound for what candidate joe biden said. boy, he was going to tackle the virus. that's what he was going to do. he was going to shut down the virus. >> going to shut down the virus. not the country. it's his ineptitude that caused the country to shut down in large part. why businesses have gone under, why schools are closed, why people have lost their living and why they're concerned. >> all right, governor, how has that stood the test of time? >> not very well, jason. you know, it's interesting that joe biden, a year ago, was saying it was basically all on donald trump. it was his fault. toeven the point that he and the press essentially accused donald

trump of being responsible for the number of american deaths due to covid. this year, we've had more deaths in 2021 than we had in 2020. i just wonder, when is joe biden going to go to the microphone and join with the press and say, i own this. i own all of these deaths just as i said donald trump did a year ago. the truth is that everything joe biden said a year ago he's reversed. every policy that president trump had in place that was working, joe biden had gone in and reversed it and it has had disastrous consequences. so, the fact that it took him 30 minutes, i figured it wouldn't take him more than 30 seconds. the basic criteria is what did trump do? let's do the opposite? thaets it, that's all we need to know. >> mercedes, it seems like donald trump was listening to the science and doing what the science was telling him to do. wildly ridiculed. called xenophobic, every phobic you can think of. but it turns out that donald

trump was ahead of the curve despite what the media was saying. >> that and donald trump understood the importance of listening to advisors, asking the tough questions before making the critical decisions. remember, it was the world health organization that also criticized donald trump for these travel bans to china and these european nations. i'm waiting to see what the world health organization going to say now with joe biden making the decision to ban travel to the seven countries and south africa. that's going to be an interesting -- an interesting thing to watch. but i have to tell you, i think for joe biden, he's in a very tricky position. this is a president who they keep changing their minds every couple of hours. at first, it was like we're not going to be doing anything with omicron or putting in the travel restrictions. all of a sudden, several hours later, that changes.

so it's a muttled messaging that continues to come out of this administration. also led by dr. fauci, which creates this fear and panic that the doctor he spoke to earlier i think addressed perfectly well, which is we need to stop creating this fear and panic in the eyes of the american people. let them realize that we can combat this pandemic together. and that's something that i think joe biden has failed to do. >> you know, governor, for the life of me, to mercedes' point, i cannot understand why president biden keeps dr. fauci in place. he has more time to do cover shoots for some celebrity magazine, "in style" magazine than he does to do the science. this morning, he's out saying the exact opposite of what the president says later after the president said, yeah, i spent 30 minutes looking this over. yeah, we just shut down these eight countries or six countries. they can't even decide if it's eight or six. it's unbelievable to me this guy

still has a job, hasn't been fired. and if you're going to instill confidence in the american people, how do you do that with the inept communication capacity of joe biden, kamala harris is nowhere, and dr. fauci nobody believes. >> dr. fauci was credible in the early days because we didn't know any better. we thought, this guy must be the expert. but as he continued to serve in that capacity, he would change his mind as to what the science said. we started to listen to other scientist, marty mccarry, jay botacarria and others. they're clinician research scientists, not government bureaucrat doctors. they practice medicine, see patients, they review data that comes from all over the world. they give us a very different point of view. they talked about herd immunity. they said we need to live our lives, we quarantine the people who are sick, not the people who are well. and many people started saying,

you know what? that makes more sense. but there are certain people that continue to believe dr. fauci gives his instructions basically handed to him personally on two tablets of stone postmarked mt. sinai. well, i'm not buying that anymore. and many of us aren't. i think we're looking to genuine science and thoughtful doctors rather than government bureaucratic people who have been in government service for 50 years. but never have actually practiced day-to-day medicine on patients. >> yeah, mercedes, governor makes a good point. joe biden was critical in saying we need a plan. we need a plan. we're going to tackle the virus, we're going to get rid of the virus. but i don't understand what the world joe biden thinks is his actual plan. you worked in the white house, how is it supposed to work? >> what i'm finding is this is a very reactionary president. and all sorts of areas, whether it be on the economy, so you're

seeing inflation out of control. you see gas prices going up, food prices going up. they're trying to tackle that problem. but it's very reactionary. it's the same thing with covid where he named the promise during the campaign that he was going to take control of this pandemic and he has failed to do so. and i think it shows pure weakness coming out of this administration. for president trump, we have to remember that it was his vision and strength that by him focusing on putting together operation warp speed, getting the pharmaceutical companies to move quickly, getting rid of the red tape, to make sure we get the vaccines in place, that, by the way, that kamala harris and the democrats were saying, i don't want to take the vaccine because it's a trump vaccine. and it's because of what president trump did to put these vaccines in place that it's why president biden has any tools in his -- you know, anything that he can work with right now. but i got to tell you, president biden has failed to move the ball forward. he has failed on this pandemic.

and really creating calm amongst the american people. and really tackling these issues like natural immunity. and i think that's why there's such distress by the american people of joe biden. >> yeah. yeah, i don't think they have a plan. and by the way, they need rapid testing and i don't see them doing that en masse as well. mercedes, governor, thank you so much for joining us. we really do appreciate it. coming up, new allegations the biden administration did absolutely nothing to vet afghan refugees before shipping them to your back yard. but, first, the indiana school administrator who exposed his district's crt teachings now says he was put on leave. he's here with his story coming up next.

>> americans fighting back has been a cornerstone of the ingraham angle and tonight we highlight someone else standing up for what they believe in. after exploding how the indianapolis school district is pushing critical race theory on teachers and students, my next guest says he was placed on leave. tony kinnet, school administrator and found ore it was chalk board review said his

work e-mail account was locked out and backed from going to any school buildings. tony joins me now. we reached out but they didn't respond. so what is going on? what are they telling you? >> well, i mean it's chaos over a few hr meetings in the last couple of weeks, that told me many of the staff at indianapolis public schools are beside themselves. they have clinical anxiety. and they are terrified that i'm going to pull out my phone and put them up on fox news tomorrow, which is flattering, i suppose. and the more that we continue to shed light on the things that are going on that parents should know about, the more nervous the district is getting. so they locked me out. i've heard nothing since wednesday since they locked me out of my file, calendar, and everything. and i guess we have to wait to see what happens. >> so, they really haven't toll you why. i hope they're still paying you. but what is it that you did that is so injurious that they won't allow you to access your e-mail or go on to any school grounds? >> well, i shed light a couple

of weeks ago on the fact that the district told our principals not to tell parents we were teaching critical race theory when we were, we have lots of evidence to suggest we are teaching critical race theory. we continue to show case that. we post avid you of dr. patricia payne, the director of our racial equity audience telling a captive audience of middle schoolers that white people are perpetuating racism towards unborn black children and other crazy things that the middle schoolers are forced to sit through. they didn't like that too much. because a couple of hours later, i was completely locked out. >> so, help me further understand that the evidence that you would say when the school board or the school district says, no, we're not teaching critical race theory, what other examples would you demonstrate to them to say, yeah, actually, they are. >> well, there are many different circumstances that we can take a look at here. first of all, our strategic priority two, and the 1619

project resolution, the black lives matter resolution the school board passed indicate several definitions of racism and other instances out of white fragility and kimberly crenshaw's work on critical race theory and delgado's writings. we hosted gloria billings who wrote in 1995 a large essay on why it should be implemented in k through 12 schools when she told the staff teaching is political and critical race theory is a big thing and our equity office mentions it quite often all the time in personal meetings and professional development steeped into the entire district. >> so what are these so-called characteristics of white supremacy that are -- like what are they? >> well, depending on who you ask, white supremacy can be any strawman that you can build. what do you want to gripe about today? punctuality, i've seen slides

indicate in racial equity meetings that state it's a sense of urgency is apparently a factor of white supremacy culture. being respectful and expecting respect from others, being on time for things, worship of the written word, meaning i cite things when i state them. those are all aspects of white supremacy culture and that's rather interesting to me. >> being on time is white supremacy? really? >> oh, yeah, that's a big one. that's been stated several times. a sense of urgency. needing things to follow a specific schedule. that's protestant work ethic and we know protestant is a trademark of white supremacy, apparently. >> well, tony, thank you for your good work and for standing tall for what you believe. and in sharing with parents so they can make an informed decision. because i think that's what parents want. they want to be armed with information. you've done as much as anybody to highlight that. i will be fascinated at the ingraham angle to see where that

goes next. tony, thank you. happy thanksgiving, thanks for joining us. all right, for some reason, school stopped putting our children first. what happened during covid really opened our eyes to how they're being treated and what they were learning. of course, we know about crt and how the teachers unions were keeping our kids masked, socially distant, and for a long time, flat out of school. but there are so many other disturbing stories out there. in new york city, according to the post, kids are being forced to eat their lunches outside on the ground. temperatures were in the 30s and 40s this week. in north carolina earlier this month, a female student said she was suspended for reporting a sexual assault. and in vermont, schools are handing out free condoms -- to middle schoolers. joining me now is cynthia garrett, education activist and author of "i choose victory" and ezra n o mani, vice president of

parents defending education. all right, it's hard to choose where to start with this, but you're deep into this. what are parents to do? what should they be looking for. and how do they deal with it? >> you know, for two years, every time i've gotten an e-mail or 1,000 e-mails, asking the same question. i've had the same answer -- show up at school board meetings whether you're a parent, mom, dad, or a grandparent, because a lot of grandparents have the time and they're looking at these issues that are impacting the children and their life all around them. even if you're an aunt or uncle, you have to show up, you have to record those meetings, then you have to take those recordings and make them viral. i have to tell you, one of the things that's the most incredibly satisfying to me is that mom has been showing up, look at virginia, and they have been recording meetings, look at the stuff that's gone viral in

the last couple of months where we see pedophilia being taught to our kids. where we see crt. we see all manner of lies and all manner of school board abuse of parental rights and of our children. and it's all about control. it's all about how do we -- >> yeah. >> it is -- it's -- it is a -- it is about control. so, ezra, to cynthia's point, schools are facing backlash for taking sensible steps against indocketry nation. some of them have put it back on the shelves. but in fairfax county, really concerned about that. because they initially banned gender queer book you blew the whistle on. then author complained that, quote, removing or restricting queer books in libraries in books is like cutting a lifeline for queer youth who might not yet even know what terms to ask google to find out more about their own identidentities, bodi

and health. so, ezra, since when are public schools responsible for affirming a child's sexuality? and where are we at with this situation right now? >> it's tragic. right now, you were asking about how this happened. literally, in june, 2020, we had this thing called the great woke awakening that happened in this country. and we saw it school after school, just as cynthia said and your guest said from our teacher on the ground. we went from this book -- critical race theory, that was in law schools, right? your guest just talked about -- tony just talked about this book, white fragility. how did this, then, become the garbage that is now indoctrinating our children? because, there's this lovely book now called race wars, a children's book about white privilege. so, no longer is this just a white car or this a black car.

these are cars that symbolize privilege. and it's just like tony was saying -- they are now indoctrinating our children with these ideas that is taking away their innocence. and on the issue of sexuality, this is not just a unicorn. now, what these children are getting is this thing called gender unicorn. it's grilling them about their gender identity, their gender expression, who they're physically attracted to, who they're emotionally attracted to. >> how old are the kids being exposed to that? how old are the kids? >> 12 years old. 12 years old. cynthia, this is the tragedy, right? you know this as well as i do. this is the tragedy of how they are coming after our children. and every parent, just like cynthia said, has to be awakened, every grandparent, every neighbor. we must protect our children. >> so, cynthia, i think what -- i -- you know, part of what

happened -- and i want to drive home the point you said, parents, you got to pay attention. i think covid forced the situation. it allowed parents and grandparents to see what's going on. we're praying on the idea that we're oblivious to what's going on. they're there and seeing they have to take action. i wish i had more time to chat with both of you, but cynthia and ezra, thank you for joining us on the ingraham angle. we appreciate it. >> did president biden put americans in danger so he could clear out afghan refugees as fast as he could? afghanistan veteran and retired green beret congressman michael waltz reacts to the latest alsos coming up next.

>> raise your hand if you trust the people behind the current border crisis here and the afghanistan debacle to vet each and every one of these people. the fact is, we've seen

potential bad actors nearly slip through the system. is there any reason to believe that the vetting is being done in accordance with u.s. law? >> the angle has been warning you for months. how can you trust the vetting that the biden administration is doing of the afghanistan refugees brought over after the kabul attack. what laura said many times, you can't, even though the president said this -- >> planes taking off of kabul are not flying directly to the united states. these sites we're landing, we're conducting thorough scrutiny, security screening for everyone who is not a u.s. citizen and a lawful permanent residents. anyone arriving will have undergone a background check. >> not a very good one. all right, the senate gop memo obtained by the washington examiner is revealing that,

quote, almost none of the 82,000 people who were vetted before being admitted to the united states, a source saying, quote, they didn't even really try to do any vetting. it would have been hard and taken hours and days, but they didn't even try. they just assumed a big risk because it would be less work, end quote. joining me now is florida congressman mike walsh, member of the house services committee and a combat veteran himself. congressman, first of all, thank you for your service to this nation. this revelation by the washington examiner in the gop memo in the senate saying that almost none of the 82,000 people were vetted. come on. that's exactly the opposite of what the president and secretary mayorkas by the way had promised us. >> jason, look, i know i'd been one of the strongest and loudest voices taking care of our allies, we had to get americans out. we had to stand with those that

stood with us for so many years to defend our flag. but here is just one more incident where the biden administration completely botched this entire thing. there were many of us, republican, democrat, veterans, back in april as soon as he made this announcement saying you have to start the evacuation now and you have to get these people to third countries like guam or third party locations, where you can do a thorough and proper vetting, where you can buy time, get them to safety, but then do the vetting and get the right people. now we found out that on the one hand, they want to say, well, losing -- losing this war after so many years was a strategic failure, but the evacuation was a big tactical success. now we're finding not even that was a success. they didn't get the right people out. and i think what has me and so many others upset is that there's still so many of the

siv's still there. there's american citizens, green cardholders, legal permanent residents. and so many at-risk afghanistans that did truly stand with us. they're still there. they got the wrong people out. now they've lied to us about the vetting process. they've shortened it. they truncated it. they wanted the whole thing to go away. >> they started to disperse people in to the homeland. there are legitimate people that are great help to the united states military. those families should be well taken care of. the vetting, the way it's supposed to look like was not even close to the way it could have been done. they could have done it months in advance to start if they knew they were taking them out buchlt that's not what's going on here, congressman? >> no, it's not. we have to make the distinction. there is some screening going on. and this is kind of the word smithing that the biden administration is playing games with here.

there's basic screening where you're running people's names and identities and fingerprints against the data bases. but, this thing was so chaotic, it was sump a mess, a lot of them had no ids. they're incomplete afghanistan documents and rather than slowing down and doing the right thing and extending the process, doing personal interviews and doing what needed to be done, they actually, according to this memo, and the sources behind it, ordered the defense department and dhs to just truncate the whole thing and just let people get through because, again, i think they want it out of sight, out of mind, let's get it off the headlines so they can move their build back better, their socialist agenda and things they really wanted to be focused on. it's scary. but, i agree, jason, most of these people are, look, they're great people who wanted a better life. and there are relatives of those who stood with us. but it only takes a few to get

through. let's not talk about the 5,000 that got out of hardened tearists that were let out at bag ram with a wide open southern border. this thing is a total mess. >> we clearly could have had fingerprints as those who helped us as translators and whatnot. thank you for being on top of it and joining us on the ingraham angle. we appreciate it. the biden administration might be doing something good for a change it only took a court order to force it, of course. department of homeland security telling fox news they're working to reimplement trump's remain in mexico policy as promptly as possible, end quote. there's a catch to all of this. quote, we cannot do so until we have the independent agreement from the government of mexico to accept those we seek to enroll in mpb -- which is the migrant protection protocols. joining me is tom holman, former

i.c.e. director and brandon judd, president of the national border patrol council. i know you both and how deeply you care about this issue. and we're having some deep problems like we've never seen before. brandon, i want to start with you. there's a statistic that's out there, it's called got-aways. explain what that is in the trajectory that we're taking into this year. >> this is one of the main problems that we're seeing right now on the southwest border. when people enter our country illegally, they're doing one of two things, they're either giving up and claiming asylum, or they're trying to evade apprehension. those people who tried to evade apprehension, they are got-aways if we cannot apprehend them. right now, this fiscal year alone, we already have nearly 100,000 got-aways on the books. these are the people that we know that we detected these individuals. this is what we know has crossed the border. this does not count for the unknown. so, the trajectory that we're

on, we're already on pace to shatter any record that we ever had of gotaways, which, by the way, was last year, 400,000. we're on pace to have 600,000 got aways this year alone. >> 600,000, they get into the homeland. now, tom, i want to go back to the remain in mexico policy. because, if somebody is detained or if they're coming across or going to a border check point, they might have -- in claiming asylum, they might have to remain in mexico. explain that policy and why the bide b administration is going to have to do, at least if the court order sticks, what they probably don't want to do, which is have them be in mexico before they come to the united states. >> you're right in the opening, the biden administration had to be sued. i was part of the lawsuit, i wrote a memo in the state of texas to sue the biden administration to have to do this. when they lost the court case, they appealed the decision. think about this. let it sink in.

the first secretary, to appeal the decision to secure the border. it's unbelievable. tell you what's going to happen, the biden administration slow rolled this, gone back to court several times. haven't started it. they may try to start it but lit be a very small number, less than 200 a day. considering what brandon just said, they're arresting 6,000, 7,000 a day, only to remove a couple of hundred, they're scratching the surface. they're not doing what the trump administration did. if they did, they would have a significant change in the border numbers. it would be a game changer like it was for president trump. but they don't want to do this. they're going to continue to try to shut it down through the administrative procedures act. they're going to slow roll it. they don't want it to be successful because they don't want it to secure the border. this is about open borders and they're not hiding it very well. >> you've done work with the

state of texas to put containers in place to build a wall. if they're not going to build a wall, put containers up. >> i talked to the governor of texas a couple of months ago. i suggested shipping containers because they can be moved in and out easily, you can stack it on top of each other and have as many feet in barrier. they're empty. they can use it for processing. they can use it for storage and equipment. they're mobile. so, if there's a surge in this part of the border, you can pick them up and move them. the secretary wanted to build a border barrier. these are temporary fixes. they're easily fixed. >> i got to interrupt you. i have to ask brandon really quick, with this mask mandate, what's going to happen to the border patrol. a lot of people may not be able to go to work? >> we have nearly 900 people that have not complied with the administration's mandate to get vaccinated which i fully support that they do not comply if they

feel that it is dangerous for them. those individuals could potentially be suspended and removed from their job. we can't afford to lose one agent, let alone 900 agents. >> the numbers are just -- they're startling. we could have you guys on every single day. i think america that cares about securing the border would just be shocked. tom, brandon, thank you for joining us here on the ingram angle. coming up, the pentagon is creating a brand new task force to investigate ufos. up next, we talk to one expert who reveals the most urgent question we need answered. stay right there.

what kind of threat are we

talking about here? >> the threat posed in our air space around assets. these things run rings around the cutting edge technologies that we have. our f-18 jets can't catch them. they tracked on radar, but we have no idea what they are. people are saying, is it russia, china, or could it be extra terrestrial. we don't know. and congress is saying, we want to find out. we need to find out. >> it makes a lot of sense. 144 incidents, 143 they could never quite explain. i'm just a layman watching these videos. you see the weird green thing. it goes, splashes beneath the water, then it's gone. when you were working in the united kingdom, what were they having? >> we were having these things

seen by military pilots, trapped on radar, performing speeds and maneuvers that we simply couldn't match. and this has been going on for decades. but it's in recent years that i think the military and the intelligence community is now getting a grip on this in congress both in the senate and the house. the intelligence committees, the armed services committees, want to find out what's going on. and the dod is now ramping up the effort to give us some answers, hopefully. >> the united states under donald trump started the space force. this is very different. it will be fascinating to see what they find. what do you think the viable explanation might be? >> well, they delivered director of national intelligence delivered a preliminary assessment in june and said, look, there's probably not one single neat answer to this. there may be a lot of things

going on. but again it's the speeds, maneuvers, accelerations that go beyond what we can do that give cause for concern here. frankly, if an adversary, russia or china have developed what they call breakthrough technologies, this is of extreme concern. people like marco rubio and christian jillen brand, bipartisan, we want some answers. guillen brand had -- >> nick, i'm glad you're on top of it. i think there needs to be some answers to some unexplained questions. all right, nick, thank you so much for joining us tonight. our final thoughts when we return.
