they expect tonight and what they think the country is going right now. >> brian: hybrid. state of the union about to announce re-election. what do you think about the job i'm doing. this is discuss where the world meets. the only person in the race is former president trump joe biden everyone assumes he is getting in the race. now you look at some of these poll numbers. you see how low the vice president is polling. and you wonder, is this the ticket that the democrat are going to get behind? there's going to be a lot of drama and people are going to be looking for the text of this speech and the passion in which it's delivered. >> ainsley: according to the latest a.p. poll, three-fourths of the country or those that they polled say we are on the wrong track. foreign policy, national security, those two topics are expected to be the among what's discussed tonight. >> steve: and the president's address comes as we learn debris from that downed chinese spy flight is now heading to the fbi lab at quantico in virginia for an examine by experts to figure out what they were doing. >> brian: let's everyone talk about the balloon gate.

alexandria hoff joins us live from washington. alex? >> steve, ainsley, brian, good morning. a white house official tells fox news that the president is expected to, quote: reassert america's leadership around the world. speaking about strategic competition with china had long been planned. official indicated that it won't be in reaction to the spy balloon. the white house says this indicating that the focus is going to be on the economy, quote: president biden will show the american people his plan to build on the unprecedented deficit reduction whose leadership has already delivered by having the richest taxpayers and big corporations pay for fair share and lowering prescription drug prices. ignoring that spy balloon will not be easy. right now the remnants of that chinese surveillance tool are set to be analyzed in a couple of days according to a senior u.s. government source. the wreckage was recovered from south carolina waters just about six miles off the coast after it had traversed the continental united states before being shot down. >> has it always been your view to shoot down a chinese spy

balloon or was it only because it became public? >> oh, no. it was always my position. the defense department wanted to shoot it down as soon as it was appropriate. >>s did this change your speech tomorrow night, sipper. >> no. >> and your foreign policy message? >> one source said the president will not be changing his foreign policy message. get this, the "wall street journal" reporting that three previous spy balloons entered u.s. airspace during the trump administration and another earlier in the biden administration. but, that an awareness gap let to the intelligence community only knowing about these after the fact. here's white house press secretary karine jean-pierre. >> how is it possible that this administration discovered at least three previous balloons but trump officials didn't know it was happening? >> yeah. so, look. i think that -- and we have talked about this before. about how when the prc government surveillance balloons

transited the continental u.s. briefly, at least three times as you mentioned during the president's prior administration. the intelligence community is prepared to give -- give briefings to key officials. >> the biden administration provided a briefing to congressional leaders yesterday. republican congressman darrell issa called it unspecific and insufficient. the senate will receive an all-member classified briefing on thursday. >> steve: alex thank you very much. the cover of the "new york post" this morning deflate of the union. china, -- says right mr. china balloon bungle be hangs over will biden's address as we. how is it possible that all these officials are saying you know it happened during the trump administration. none of the trump people say they never heard about it. jake sullivan the national security adviser, according to "the washington post" this morning, in a speech yesterday, he said that after joe biden took office, the united states

government enhanced their surveillance of our airspace and they enhanced the capacity to detect stuff that the trump administration did not simply see. and then they went back and looked at historical patterns and they uncovered multiple instances when these things flew across the united states. the trump administration never knew about it. yesterday, you saw jennifer griffin, she was in a pentagon briefing with general glen vanherck, who said that the united states determined these things belong to china only after they left u.s. airspace. who knew until now? >> ainsley: when it comes to the trump administration, they said they didn't know. >> steve: they didn't know. >> ainsley: denied by trump and denied by john bolton who is not a huge trump fan anymore. ratcliffe, esper and o'brien. the difference here is if -- if the defense intelligence or deference officials are correct and this did happen over the trump administration, they didn't know about it. >> they didn't. >> ainsley: that's the

difference. joe biden knew about it on january 28th. the saturday before the saturday when it was actually shot down. we had plenty of advance warning. it was off the coast of alaska. why didn't they shoot it down when it left the property of alaska. left the land of alaska and went into the ocean or over the ocean? they failed to act. and then these journalists five days later in montana in billings, start taking pictures of this. they notify the intelligence community. they notify the press. they do stories on this. then america finds out about it. then they shot it down on saturday, on february 4th, days later. they canceled blinken's trip. people are wondering do they not want you to know because they wanted blinken to go over there and be friendly with china. did they not want you to know because he doesn't want to address it in the state of the union address. >> brian: if robert o'brien if secretary of state mike pompeo was cia director did not know. if the chief of staff did not know and president trump did not know, if the secretary of defense, mattis, did not know,

did this is epic failure of communication between norad, between any type of surveillance equipment we may have in texas. that it went 1,000 miles deep into texas if we don't know about it if they believe we are going to give a private briefing to the trump people if they ask. number one, the fact that anyone is communicating a chinese balloon can come through. that's one thing. can you debate on whether it happened or not. robert o'brien and pompeo really have huge reservations about whether this took place or not. number two is what do you mean it's not a threat? under what planet are you on that a chinese balloon, surveillance balloon could fly over sensitive military sites and you say to yourself. >> brian: 520. >> brian: you say it's no big deal? this is incredible. for the president to say on wednesday, shoot it down. for them to say no, not really. we will get to it when it gets over water.

we have the senator from maine, excuse me, montana say shoot it down. you're just going to kill some caribou and a couple of bear at the worst. there's nothing there in south dakota. nothing there in wyoming. you could have easily shot it down because you only have a seven mile debris field. >> ainsley: even earlier than that. shot it down in alaska. >> brian: islands for canada not to care about it is astounding. they are under our norad system. i would bring this into fray, too. the president has got a chance tonight to talk about one thing that 82% of the public agree on. that is that china is the problem. china is united enemy. china on multiple fronts are challenging us, militarily, buying up schools, buying up land, buying up farmland. real estate. challenging us in central and south america. in africa. >> ainsley: people don't think they have the technology in this spy flight? to transmit information? >> brian: if you want to have china as part of the state of the union, you could actually get both sides to cheer. here is ari fleischer.

>> he won't share with the american people what really took place and how it hovered over america and those military installations. he is going to say "i shot it down." and then all the democrats will stand up and applaud and he will go on to his next blow smoke line. that's what he will do tomorrow night. what bothers me the most, sean, when you add up the biden presidency, we are a nation now that has abandoned sovereignty. we have abandoned by land. when you look at how our southern border is no longer enforced. abandoned by air, china can fly a spy balloon over our country. whats' next? abandon it by sea. allow chinese ships if we sank the ship we could kill american fish? so no, we are not going to defend america. this is what has happened now with our country and joe biden's acquiescence and, clearly, prest xi was testing the united states. to what measure?

we don't know. but the president says he is not going to change his speech. so apparently it's not a big deal to him. nonetheless, here's the thing. so, if all of this is true. what i just described "the washington post" is reporting this morning. that they didn't -- they enhanced their surveillance and they went back and looked at the tape or whatever they do and the intel community apparently told the pentagon what had happened, who in the pentagon knew about this and did not tell the president? were they worried that he was going to shoot it down? well, he may have. but it looks like the chain of command, it never got to the president. and we know that for a fact because we have heard from so many people from the trump administration and now what -- what the biden administration is going to tell every senator the day after tomorrow in a classified briefing is just that. we changed our surveillance techniques and now we know they came in. but we didn't know they were from china until after they left our airspace. >> ainsley: coming up an arizona rancher is under arrest after

we have a medley, we have a mixture. the democrats on this side. registered democrats here in the middle. but moderate. and then three republicans on this side. thanks y'all for being with us. tonight's state of the union address. what exactly are you all looking for him to say? what's the most important issue? brian, i will start with you. >> there is hopelessness out there. i think that's even worse than the financial condition. i think people don't like the direction the country is going and i think we're going to ask people who thinks the country is going in the right direction? i think the numbers will be abysmal. that has led to a hopelessness right now. is it ever going to get better? he has to have a better strategy than blaming former president trump. >> ainsley: thank you. marissa is in the back. stheef is a democrat. what's important to you tonight do you think he should address this chinese spy flight that we saw and shot down? >> absolutely. so foreign policy is on the top of my mind right now not only just the chinese spy balloon. what was it doing? what information can we get from that? also, he needs to talk about what is going on in ukraine, of course, and the crisis at the border.

so as a democrat those things are at the top of my mind and i'm really interested to hear what he is going to say and how he is going toen held accountable to all of us. >> ainsley: keisha, as a democrat, polls have been taken and most of them are unanimous they say they don't want him to run again. most democrats don't want him to run again. a.p. poll just taken and three fourths of the country say he is not doing a good job and majority of democrats said why hope he doesn't run, how do you feel? >> right, i think that there is a disconnect between the democrats and president biden. i think a lot of americans are not rest signatureating with him. i think he needs to come out a little stronger. and tell us what his plan is instead of what i'm not. okay. i'm not doing what former president trump did but, okay, let us know what is it that you want to do different for these next two years? >> ainsley: who do you like if

he doesn't run again? who would be your candidate if he didn't run. >> i'm not sure. >> ainsley: we still have two more years to consider it? >> yeah. >> ainsley: christopher, you are a republican. what would you like to hear from him tonight. director of economic counsel said the message should be we have to make more progress but people should feel optimistic. >> i'm always a big fan of what is going on here in the home front and the american wallet right now is struggling. credit card debt is climbing. it's showing that americans can't live in america. real estate values are plummeting. it's becoming harder to buy a house. we're forcing the country into becoming a renter's nation not because they want to but because they have to. >> ainsley: and right here in the middle of the front row you are a registered democrat but you are a moderate. what are some of the things you want him to talk about tonight? we had talked during the commercial break and you said something that we all agreed with you about we had forgotten about education. that's so important to you. >> i'm a school mom in new york city i don't think our education

is going in the right direction. we are lowering the bar. there is not much rigger at all in what i'm seeing in my daughter's classroom. >> ainsley: what are you seeing in the classrooms? >> it's dumbing down. there's a lot of focus on dei n schools and higher education and in companies. and kids just don't feel like we're being treated equally. and we're really lowering the bar and teaching to the lowest standards. and we can't be that for a country. and we want to see him talk about you know, improving our he had carriage standards. >> ainsley: kyan, how about you? do you have children. >> yes. >> ainsley: do you worry about crime and. >> most definitely. my son is 19 in college. we grew up in an area where the crime rate pretty high. seems to be worse at this moment. there is too many kids dying for senseless reasons. and we're even getting into areas schools where i'm from in

urban neighborhoods. kids are bringing guns to school. it's just outrageous and out of control. >> ainsley: why is that? how do we reverse it and why do you think that is. >> honestly, i think it's a mental health thing. i think we need to focus more on that. it's a gun control thing. but i think that mental health weighs into it because kids need to be talked to, we need to watch out for signs of kids that have these mental issues. and we just need to speak to them and get a perception of where they are coming from. >> ainsley: madeline, how many children do you have? >> i have five children. >> ainsley: are you worried about putting food on the table. when did you go to the grocery store things are more expensive. gas prices much higher than they were when he took office. >> thank god my children are all adults, all right? two of my children are deceased. one was murdered. one died from accidental fentanyl overdose.

>> ainsley: oh my word. >> my youngest son just left home. he is currently in fort bragg. he is a paratrooper. >> ainsley: god bless him. >> he escaped the hood. he escaped the hood and he went on to get some real badges of honor. so, be i worry about just the everyday daily day-to-day survival in new york. not just because my paycheck doesn't stretch from paycheck to paycheck but also for my safety. all right. taxes are out of control. the economy, things are getting way, way more expensive. i can't even afford pay my rent half the time. i'm robbing peter to pay paul. i am what you call amongst the working dirt poor. all right? the middle class has been pushed down into the working poor. and the working poor is being pushed down into the working

dirt poor. so, this is where we are. you know, this is the reality. the truth on the ground. and i would like to hear president biden, all right, for once, tell the american people the truth. speak truth to the issue. stop trying to be so politically correct. all right? and tell us what it is that is really happening because we already know. we are living it. we are experiencing it. every single day, stop gaslighting the american public. >> ainsley: brian, right here on the front, she brings up a good point. no mom should have to bury their child. she has buried two. fentanyl is a big issue. immigration is a big issue. china, what are you wanting to say about china? fentanyl is made in china. >> china is not our friend. >> they are our enemy. you talk about electric vehicles and batteries and energy independence. we're putting ourselves now in a position where we are going to be energy dependent on china to manufacture batteries. i don't understand it.

and it's part of that green new deal. now, they have repackaged it and changed it into something else and telling us that this is good for the environment and good for our people. how are people going to afford vehicles when they are forcing us to buy electric automobiles? i think both of these panelists said really resonates with me when you talk about guns in school and talk about losing children there is a sense of hopelessness. if kids had -- if they were optimistic in school. if there was a better life for them something to look forward, to there would be less attraction to guns and to drugs. but both are the same. the guns i'm going to get some strength and be out there on the street. the drugs, i got nothing better to do. if there was alternatives and what happened to our america? this guy was supposed to bring -- they said the adults are going to take over again. this is anything but that. this is an out-of-control administration. i want to see him address that. >> ainsley: y'all, thank you so much. i know you are going to be here with us for the next few hours. you will be our panel and brian will talk to you and steve will talk to you, too.

thank you, so sorry for your loss madeline. god bless you. >> terrible. >> ainsley: your message is very powerful. evacuations underway in two states after a train explodes sending toxic chemicals into the air. the effort to contain the blaze people had to leave their home. and i just didn't feel well. but then i found clearchoice. [ forde ] replacing marcia's teeth with dental implants at clearchoice was going to afford her that permanent solution.

when he was on with us he said yes, he said when you black out and you are a parent you realize i have to be there for my children. for the rest of their lives. i'm going to do whatever can i to get out of this and to fight for them. >> brian: what also stuck out -- by the way he can tell a story. that's why he is such a great reporter. the book seems to be exactly that him telling his own story. and his own battle to literally get back on his feet. is he missing both his feet. i'm sure he is going to be reporting soon for us. i guess after the book comes out and he finishes rehab. also, i did not know that he was with pierre for 45 minutes and they talked outside the car and later find out that he passed away. >> i'm sure that gives his family a lot of comfort your biggest fear as a parent i know if something god forbid happened to my child that she would be alone. i would at least want someone there comforting her. i'm glad they were there together. they worked together for a long time and knew each opener very well. >> steve: so many part of

benjamin's story we have not heard. this puts all of it coming out soon. preorder it today and get it on the day it comes out. >> ainsley: is he a special person. >> brian: check in with someone else who is special. janice dean also a special author. >> janice: thank you so much. he is a hero no doubt about it. we love you, benjamin and your family of course. take a look at the weather. warmer air moving up to the northeast we love that, right? unless you like snow and i'm sorry about that. 31 here in new york city. 43 in commission. 37 in kansas city. we had record-breaking cold, right, for a matter of 24 hours across portions of new england and the northeast. here's your forecast today. we have a storm brewing across the south. the plain states. that could bring the potential for heavy rainfall. today, webs, and thursday. for parts of the same areas. we'll could also see the risk of an isolated tornado or two. and there is your forecast highs today. so getting to 42 here in new york city. it's going to get even warmer than that ahead of the storm

system. 52 as we get into wednesday and thursday. and feeling more like springtime for indianapolis and chicago and cleveland today and tomorrow again ahead of that storm system. here is what boston is going to feel like 49 on wednesday. 54 in new york and d.c. 61. i know, ainsley, that hayden wants snow. march can be a beast. so we still have a couple of weeks to see some snow in the forecast. my guess is we will. that's my educated guess. >> steve: we don't have to. >> ainsley: we just need one. we just need one. >> steve: we had a little bit you should have gone out right then. >> janice: i have a mission. >> ainsley: thank you, janice. have democrats lost all faith in kamala harris. even the vice president's closest allies are drawing a blank when asked to name one major accomplishment. we still have lots of faith in jimmy failla. he is going to i didn join us no weigh in. >> brian: what are heir accomplishments? ♪

the "new york times" of all publications interviewing dozens of democrats who, quote: said she had not risen to the challenge of proving herself as a future leader of the party much less the country. even some democrats whom her own advisers referred reporters to for supportive quotes confided privately they had lost all hope in her one prominent biden fundraiser adding quote i can't think of one thing she has done except stay out of the way and stand behind joe biden in certain ceremonies. jimmy failla host fox across america and fox news radio and fox nation joins us now. >> hey, hey, hey. >> steve: one thing do you want a good quote about kamala harris? call these people. they called them and it's like oh, we can't think of anything nice to say. [laughter] >> well, make no mistake about this. this is a trial balloon in the sense that they always float this stuff to the media to see how it will play before they decide to make a decision. but, like all balloons, biden isn't in a rush to shoot this one down.

the knives are clearly out for kamala harris who has been a disastrous v.p. and make no mistake about that, too. i'm an expert on disasters because i'm a knicks fan. here's the problem because they tried to defend her and insulate her against criticism saying she is historic first her race, her gender. there is no race or gender that we would accept being this bad at their job. okay? she was tasked with being the border czar. >> steve: right. >> the only time she made a run for the border was when she went to taco bell if we are being honest. she conducted a study on the root causes of illegal immigration. >> steve: and. >> blamed ton climate change. understand this really quick. if you have a border problem as we do, it is a now problem. your house is on problem. if you call the fire department, you don't want to hear well, you are in luck we are going to do a study on the root cause of the house fire. you want a now solution. she hasn't offered one. >> steve: there you go. don't you think it's curious we are talking about the "new york times." of all publications which, for a lot of people, is like the dnc.

>> yeah, yeah. >> steve: in-house newsletter for them to take shots -- they have also taken shots at hunter biden. >> yeah. >> steve: kind of like okay, joe's on the list, hunter's on the list and now kamala is. it would seem like they would like to change the page and put somebody else in there before joe biden supposedly joe biden is thinking about should i run or should i go and now it's kind of like well, if you don't run, she shouldn't run either. >> there is no world where she runs. and we know this because she ran once before in the democratic party. and when she dropped out. she was polling behind isis. people try to make this a republican thing. they are banging on kamala harris. the democrats hated her more than we did. she was at 1%. she didn't make the iowa caucuses. that is her biggest challenge here she has lost the print wing of the democratic party. where there is smoking elizabeth warren is trying to send a signal. it's not good for kamala.

>> steve: probably good for pete buttigieg. you look at these polls and he is always -- he is up there where biden is. >> he is failing up his whole career. think about this. he is in charge of transportation. he started out with the nickname pothole pete and managed to become transportation czar. generally speaking pothole pete doesn't get in charge the roads. we took summer school sal and made him summer school education. he keeps failing up. >> steve: think about this though, joe biden we have heard through leaks and stuff like that, in democratic circles, he's all. in he is going to be running. so you don't have to worry about kamala harris. the big question is if she is regarded so poorly, will she be the vice president next time around or will suddenly she say you know what? i did my best on the border, pete, you try. >> i don't think she would hand it off. i think she might be politely asked to hand it off. because biden is adamant on the

fact that he is running again because he says he is the only democrat that can defeat president truman. i tell you. >> steve: all right, jimmy, thank you very much. great take on all the news. all right. coming up on the top of the hour, straight ahead, new york congresswoman elise stefanik is going to weigh in on the state of the union and china's secret spy flight top of the hour. you are watching the bolder's number one cable morning news show on this tuesday, february 7th.
