progressive gets you right back to living the dream. now, where were we? [ cheering ] >> greg: hey, we're out of time. thank you to my guests and our studio audience. fox news @ night with trace gallagher is next. >> trace: thank you, greg. good evening, everyone. well america's late news, "fox news @ night." i'm trace gallagher in los angeles. and breaking tonight, recovery efforts underway in bitterly cold temperatures at this hour after the white house confirms a "high-altitude object" was shot down over alaska today. we still don't know for sure where it came from or when the pentagon will give us more information. white house correspondent kevin corke is live with the breaking details. kevin, good evening. >> reporter: evening, trace. very interesting day once again in washington. seems like the hits just keeping on coming.

this object has been described as roughly the size of a small car, much smaller than the suspected chinese spy balloon which the air force shot down last saturday. to say it was shut down to say nothing from the facts that comments from the podium at the white house today is raising questions tonight. it was downed off the alaska coast, again, about the size of a small car. it had been seen flying at approximately 40,000 feet and was deemed to pose a reasonable threat to aircraft and other civilian operations. still, there are few answers about the object, even as the white house attempts to draw distinctions between this episode and the episode i previously mentioned last saturday. now, we are told that the president -- based on the advice of the pentagon -- believed it posed enough of a concern that it needed to be shot down. he ordered it, and it was. asked about the intradiction, the president said simply "it was a success."

>> we're going to remain vigilant about the skies over the united states, and as i said earlier, um, the president takes his obligations to protect our national security interests and those -- and the safety and security of the american people as paramount. >> reporter: the unknown object was shot down in an area with very harsh weather conditions, as you pointed out, trace, where daytime temperatures hovered around 17 below zero during the day which is about when it was shot down. however, there are new questions tonight about just how the white house handled the revelation of the downing of the object to begin with with critics noting that john who handled the briefing didn't voluntarily announce the information and it was only given, you know, especially given what happened last saturday, it was only given to the press after it was asked by a reporter, and that's surprising given this sort of information would seem to be of

very high importance and incredibly high interest to the american people, and thus, critics again have argued, it should have been mentioned immediately without needing to be prodded again by the press. very interesting. we'll have to see how they handle the next one if there is such a thing but this one is certainly raising eyebrows, trace. >> it was right before the pentagon briefing. a lot of people wondered if that question wasn't asked in the white house briefing, would he have not addressed it at all and let the pentagon do it. that's a concern about this. thank you, kevin corke. let's get insight on this. with us now retired army lieutenant colonel davis. colonel, great to see you. reuters is asking the same question i asked a couple of times today. quoting here, "u.s. officials declined to speculate about what the object might be, even after a day of observation, raising questions about what kind of object could be so difficult to

identify by experienced u.s. pilots and intelligence officials." any guesses on this, colonel? because i think we're not being told everything they know. >> yeah, i almost hope that's the case, because it seems kind of odd to me that we're going to shoot something down, we don't know who it is, whose it was, what it was, whether it was something that could potentially have been harmful if it gets shot down. i mean, i think we would have wanted to know a little bit more about it before we took that kind of decisive action but, look, i think because of all the uproar that happened this week over the delay of shooting down the last one, given that it came over alaska and senator murkowski really being upset in senate hearings this week, i think they decided they're just going to err on the side of shooting it down and shooting it down later. >> trace: i heard you say this was a political knee-jerk kind of thing rather than a mandatory military thing. >> well, i mean, i honestly

think if it hadn't had been for last week, they wouldn't have shot it down. i definitely want to know what it was, although the "new york times" is reporting that actually when the device hit the ground, the frozen water there, that it broke apart implying it wasn't a balloon of any kind, but, again, maybe they're just not telling us everything. >> trace: if this is china, sir, my question is, is it a sign that xi jinping is testing us? >> yeah, and that's why -- that's why i think it is so crucial we do find out exactly who owned this because if this was sent by china, especially right on the heels of all the other stuff before it's even settled down, that'll raise a whole new level of difficulty for our relationships, and i really hope that's not what this was. >> trace: you know, it's interesting because speaking of tests, the u.s. this week launched an intercontinental

ballistic missile out of california. are we flexing? is this something you think is just a test? just a -- it's nothing but a coincidence? >> yeah, i think -- we do these kinds of tests a lot. i would imagine that -- because it takes a lot of preparation to do a test. you have to have a lot of things in place to make sure you get the telemetry and all of that. i would imagine it's not and just coincidental. i think they would highlight it a little bit to make sure everybody's aware. >> trace: yeah. lastly, i just have to say -- i don't have time to play the soundbite here -- but last night the president was asked whether this is concerning and this is kind of a hit to u.s./china relations. he said, nah, it's not a big deal. he says, i just talked to xi. the reporter said, you talked to him? he said, no, i really didn't just talk to him. your final thoughts on this? >> i was against blinkin's trip because there are important issues that need to be resolved and addressed between u.s. and china. if you're not talking in the

highest levels, you're not getting anything resolved. >> colonel, great information as always. thank you for coming on. appreciate it. >> appreciate it, thank you, trace. >> trace: in the meantime, we have very concerning information trending along the southern border. a major uptick now in the number of chinese nationals crossing into the u.s. illegally. marianne rafferty is live with those numbers. this really is raising some red flags, marianne. >> reporter: chinese nationals illegally crossing into the u.s. have seen a tenfold increase compared to this time last year according to customs and border protection. they say there's been more than 1,800 encounters with chinese nationals between october and the end of december. u.s. border patrol chief raul ortiz speaking exclusively to our fox news team at the southern border discussing how much those numbers have exploded. >> we've seen a spike in chinese nationals. between 3,000 so far this fiscal year compared to the same time

last year, a little over 300. we are continuing to monitor that traffic. our agents are doing a pretty good job of intradicking them and processing them accordingly. >> republicans touting their plans to solve the border crisis including senator marco rubio who shared this video of migrants jumping out of a large sailing boat and coming to land. announcing his border plan last month, he says it's cut migration from haiti, venezuela by 18%. cvp releasing official january totals of migrant encounters, just over 156,000. it's the first month in 10 months migrant numbers are under 200,000. of those january encounters, nearly 70% were single adults. meanwhile, the u.s. issuing the strongest possible do not travel warning for mexico ahead of spring break. >> trace: when you look at those boats, marianne, they put so many people in there, they

can't even sit down. there's not enough room for people to sit down as they come across those waters. good stuff. thank you, marianne. fbi agents searched the indiana home of former vice president mike pence on friday and found one additional document with classified markings from his time in office. this after pence's personal aids turned over a dozen classified papers to the archives in january. pence's old boss reportedly had more classified items from mar-a-lago turned over to the justice department. multiple outlets now reporting former president trump's legal team relinquished two federal agents, one folder and one additional document with classified markings in addition to a laptop belonging to a current aid of the former president. in the meantime, back to our top story and the political fallout from this latest object to be shot down in u.s. air space. let's bring in former dhs deputy assistant secretary jonathan fahey and horace cooper. gentlemen, welcome to you both.

jonathan, to you first. we'll get to the border in a little bit but i just have to talk about this air space issue, because we were told last week it was a bad idea to shoot down this chinese spy weather balloon in deep water or in frozen conditions and yet today, we shoot down this unidentified object in frozen conditions. there doesn't appear to be a set policy. what do you think? >> yeah, exactly. doesn't appear -- it appears to be the policy is reacting to the bad news coverage from last week which really isn't a sensible national security policy. and really this goes back to -- and i think you hit it on earlier with your other guest is are we being tested? is this weakness of this administration being shown to the world? i think unquestionably it is, and you know, we'll get to the border in a second but these are all interconnected. the weakness is evident. they're exploiting it and testing us. >> trace: i get it, horace. up in that area, i know the atc radar is limited.

i know when you're talking about, you know, vectoring flights around, it's limited, so there's a civilian air concern up there, so i get the whole idea and the reason for the shoot down, although they waited 24 hours! if you wait 24 hours, the concern level kind of goes from here to here. your thoughts? >> well, it's pretty clear this administration has been more interested in responding to the public pressure and the media pressure about this than making national security the primary focus. look, we don't know what this is. they haven't told us if they know what this is. is it possible that we've ignored for months or years these types of intrusions and now this president -- >> maybe. >> -- when it becomes an issue suddenly decides, let's shoot it first and ask questions later.

this sounds political. it doesn't sound principled. >> trace: it does sound a little political. general keith kellogg said this today on special report. watch. >> they're reacting much more rapidly than they did before, but this was reacting to something they don't even know what it was and they haven't told us what it was. >> trace: yeah, again -- again, you know, jonathan, you think this is not a -- not a military response as much as a political response, like, you know what? this thing's got to go down now! >> yeah, it is funny how the -- you know, last week, it's ok to float across the entire country and it's not that big a deal and the president even said it wasn't that big a deal and now we're shooting this thing out of the air without really asking any questions or not knowing what it is per -- what it is apparently, so, yeah, it seems to be inconsistent. it seems from my view that national security is the primary interest. it's more of a reactive interest which certainly isn't in our interests national

security-wise. >> trace: i want to get border news in here if i can because the chief border patrol agent of the tucson sector is really running out of descriptions to describe the crisis on the border. listen to him and i'll get your response. >> last year it quadrupled. last year it was 250,000. we're 20,000 ahead right now we went from what i would describe as unprecedented to a point where i don't have the correct adjective to describe what is going on. >> trace: how about the adjective of unrivaled because this stuff doesn't happen, horace, in any place else on the planet! >> unbelievable that this administration has allowed this problem to get to this level! i don't want people shooting people who are trying to come into our country. i would like a principled policy of deterrence. now, this administration announces that, no, no, no, no, no, we're not going to deport people to mexico, because apparently, that's too much like remain in mexico.

what i'm seeing is hundreds and hundreds and hundreds of thousands of people see the signal this administration is sending, "come to america! it's ok!" that's intolerable. >> trace: and if they miss the signal, they can just pick up social media and the messages are everywhere. come to america! it's all going to be fine! jonathan fahey and horace co cooper, gentlemen, thank you both. >> trace: in the meantime, counting down to kickoff of super bowl 57 now and with grocery prices up nearly 12% from a year ago, hosting that big game party might be getting a little more expensive. jackie ibanez taking a closer look at those numbers. jackie, good evening. >> hi, trace, good evening. you're exactly right when it comes to food consumption, the super bowl is only second to thanksgiving day. that's according to the department of agriculture. about 60,000 lucky fans are expected to watch the game in person while another 200 million are expected to tune in this weekend on fox and for those catching the game at home, one

of the most popular menu items is chicken wings. you guessed it. the national chicken council estimates the americans will eat 1.5 billion chicken wings this weekend along. native grown wings restaurants in phoenix say their sales this week are up to 400% higher than usual. >> who doesn't want to have wings on a super bowl sunday, right? so native grown wings, we'll probably go through about 65,000 to 70,000 wings this week alone. >> gee, wow! good news is the chicken wing that cost you $3.38 a pound last year are down to $2.65 a pound! avocados for that guac will run you 20% less than last year. that said, overall food prices as you know have been on the rise for the past 25 straight months with overall grocery prices up 12%. cookies are up a whopping 18%. that hurts. other party favorites, alcohol

up over 5%. nonalcoholic beverages will run you almost 13% more. if you're one of the lucky 60,000 fans at the super bowl, you most likely shelled out some serious moola! a ticket to get you through the doors at state farm stadium cost upwards of $6,000. that's without calculating transportation costs, though, trace. our friends at fox business -- yeah -- reported one of the most expensive round-trip flights, hold onto your chair, from philadelphia to phoenix notched over $6,000 as of tuesday. so let's hope that your team wins if you shelled out $12k! trace? >> trace: let's hope. you're exactly right. i hear you saying. chicken wings and guacamole, other than that, it'll cost you an arm and a leg to have a super bowl party. jackie ibanez, thank you. outdoor dining saved countless small businesses during the pan demi. the city of los angeles wants to codify the alfresco dining program with an ordinance with

reems and reems of red tape that could cost restaurants their livelihood. with us now, supply chain vice president of ginia ramen bar lydia. lydia, if you're in the restaurant industry, the cost of food has to be daunting and a major hurdle to success. >> completely true. so supply chain for restaurants is up over 20% to over 30%. it's very similar to what's going on in the grocery industry today. >> trace: i look at the price of eggs alone -- and i know you use a lot of eggs because ramen is an egg kind of thing -- i look at the price of eggs alone and say how in the world does a ramen place that needs eggs for everything stay in business. >> our eggs in california are upwards of $10 a dozen. in the midwest, it's a little bit down.

in the east coast as well. chicken and eggs are very expensive. >> trace: you mention california. the problem with the egg prices in california is you got to have the free range chickens. if you don't have those in california, those will cost you a bunch more money, right? >> proposition 12. >> trace: proposition 12. having outdoor dining is about to be very expensive. sucker punch proposal could doom outdoor dining. now, the city's proposed ordinance would revert to confusing red tape that could cost restaurants tens of thousands of dollars and put those who can't afford the additional cost out of business for good. the cities and counties, they all came and said, ok, we're going to help you get outdoor dining. now, they're like, we have to put all of this red tape back in, otherwise what are we going to do? >> exactly. it's like a double sucker punch. it adds insult to injury to the restaurant business. i mean, especially in an economy where inflation is so high and businesses in a sense aren't starting to suffer but you could see the business start to suffer. >> trace: yeah, i want to put

these on the screen lastly, because this is how restaurants are managing their costs, right? what do they do? they increase the menu prices. 87% of restaurants change the menu. 59% reduce hours. 48%, they close on days they're normally open. these are drastic measures. they're raising menu prices. everyone gets that. the rest of them are closing and shortening staff hours and doing things to wiggle out of this. some are doing it. some are not. >> correct. actually, our restaurants are not doing that. we've been very, very blessed in our particular jinya ramen bar. we've not experienced some of those issues. earlier in the covid, we did. we're not experiencing those today. >> trace: is the biggest problem supply chain or food costs? >> supply chain. still supply chain. a lot of people think since covid is winding down in a sense that supply chain issues have gone away but that's not necessarily true especially with imported goods as well. >> lydia, best of luck to you. thank you for coming on. appreciate it.

>> trace: well, first up in tonight's crime round-up, police rested one man in connection with a woman found beaten and

strangled to death in new jersey. luz hernandez, mother of three and a kindergarten teacher was found in a shallow grave, the man believed to be her ex was found in miami and charged with desecrating human remains. a second man on the right is still wanted in connection with the case. in the meantime a woman in oakland, california, went to place flowers on her mother's grave. she was only there a few minutes but it was long enough for thieves to bust into her car and steal her purse and her backpack. here's what she said. >> your stomach just drops and it's like, oh no! it's happened. and disbelief and then anger. it's like is nothing sacred. i'm going to wish my mom a happy birthday, a heavenly happy birthday and they prey on people anywhere. i always like to sing happy birthday. i know it's silly but, i mean, i literally couldn't get that off, because it just happened like that. >> trace: and a man in texas

found an ice box of eight abandoned puppies floating in a swamp water. someone had apparently dumped them in the pond or the floodwaters and that washed them in. he saved the soaking wet puppies and brought them to a pet rescue. it sounds like after a little tlc, they should be just fine. well, the fox news @ night commonsense department happened to be scanning "the los angeles times" when it ran across the story with the headline reading, "quote, what's the matter with portland? we'll get into portland's problems in a minute but the "l.a. times" asking what's the matter with portland or any liberal city is kind of like a camel saying what's the matter with the drama dairy or a duck talking about the goose. portland has a sky rocketing homeless problem with feces and urine on the streets. the city is spending record amounts of money on the homelessness as the problem continues to get worse. commonsense wonders if the "l.a.

times" actually covers l.a., because while it's slamming portland, it's describing its own backyard, soaring crime, fatal drug overdoses, high levels of dissatisfaction with what the city is doing about it. in fact, the portrait of portland could be painted in 40 liberal u.s. cities. the "l.a. times" article goes onto say how conservatives have long branded portland as exhibit a for how liberals and so-called woke policies have run amok. commonsense thinks the pot should beat the kettle before the "l.a. times" runs a profile on a groundhog criticizing the looks of a prairie dog. in the meantime, more damaging testimony delivered by a key prosecution witness friday on the double murder trial of south carolina attorney alec murdaugh. here is the senior correspondent laura ingle. >> reporter: blanka simpson,

the murdaugh's former housekeeper dropping what many court observers described as bomb shells on the witness stand friday telling jurors about private covers she had with alec -- conversations she had with alec murdaugh after the murders of his wife maggie and youngest son paul. she said -- >> you remember the shirt i was wearing, the vinny vines shirt. in my mind, i was saying i don't remember a vinny vines shirt. it was the polo shirt. i didn't say anything but i was kind of thrown back, because i don't remember that. i don't remember him wearing that shirt that day. >> reporter: a snapchat video taken by paul murdaugh hours before the murders shows his father wearing a blue polo shirt that day and then he was wearing a clean white t-shirt when police arrived. a second witness heard alec

murdaugh's voice on video hours before the murders. he has plead not guilty. testimony resumes monday. trace? >> trace: laura, thank you. let's take another look with trial attorney gabriel sepulveda sanchez. great to have you here. the very housekeeper was talking about how maggie murdaugh the day of the murders was telling her that her husband asked herself and her son to go to the hunting lodge that day oddly. she thought that was unusual. there they were at the hunting lodge and someone kills them. >> it's definitely direct evidence. i would say that's still circumstantial, too. if that's all you know is he wanted to meet over there by the hunting lodge, then, yeah, the jury is going to hear that and consider that whether he was -- that was probative evidence there was the murders. there's a lot of oddities in this case and a lot of circumstantial evidence. we're talking about shirts and someone wore a shirt -- a certain shirt in the morning and

changes in the afternoon. we all do that. it's odd. the question is, is that enough to get a jury -- >> is it enough to put someone away for life. that's interesting. talking about the shirts, he had the white shirt and the blue polo shirt and the housekeeper is saying, you know what? he wasn't wearing the shirt while i was there because i touched the collar. here is the complete soundbite laura played a little bit of it. here is the whole thing and then we'll get your response. >> i didn't say anything but i was kind of thrown back, because i don't remember that. i don't remember him wearing that shirt that day when he left. i know what shirt he was wearing because i fixed the collar and the collar is a different material. >> trace: yeah, the collar is a different material. this is -- she does this. she said, oh, there was pajamas by the washing man. it's weared -- washing machine. it's weird they were laying out by the washing machine. the theory that the prosecutors have is that he washed his clothes after the killing but then he took it out. >> that's odd. the jury could use that as

circumstantial evidence there's something going on here. at the end of the day, hindsight 20-20 sometimes. maybe it's odd looking at this now. like we were talking about, this is an odd case with an odd family. maybe she was looking for things that are odd to her now. >> trace: the prosecution wants to rest on tuesday or wednesday and the defense says they'll take about a week to do their thing. you think the prosecution has put on a strong case? >> um, i think it's an odd case. a lot of circumstantial -- not a lot of circumstantial evidence. i think they're going to need more. i think the defense attorneys are going to go in and do what they can. there's a lot going on with different motives. it just doesn't -- it doesn't all make sense to me yet. >> trace: no. no. a lot of people are like that. thank you so much, gabriel. appreciate it. in the meantime, an elephant in the texas zoo has a super bowl

the emblem! there is a super-sized controversy brewing over two commercials scheduled to run during fox's broadcast of the big game on sunday. the adds are part of the campaign to promote christianity. some people are not really happy about it. the chief religion correspondent lauren green has that. >> how do you do all of this stuff? >> sketchers, baby, shoes made from all walks of life. >> get your feet off the desk. >> this year sewell bowl adds -- super bowl ads feature attention-laden spots as advertisers try to entice the largest audience share of the year. this year a rare religious offering. >> we believe it could change the world by turning the other cheek. >> reporter: no celebrities, just modern-day scenes of despair, anger and peril. the tag line reveals it's about jesus christ. >> they question his ideology. >> reporter: he gets us ads are part of a three-year nearly $3 billion campaign from billboards to tv spots to bring

jesus' message to the masses. the ads have been airing since last march but the group will kick off the biggest ad at the super bowl. >> he gets us is for open skeptics. >> reporter: 110 million viewers are expected to tune into the big game, the highest since 2015. two he gets us eds will air, one -- ads will air, one in each segment of the game costing $90 million. it's funded by 50 christian individuals and companies including hobby lobby. >> our focus during the super bowl is presenting the uniting, healing, confounding love of jesus as something that we think will set us on a better path as a country. >> reporter: the -- the ads have had mixed reactions on social media. some criticize what they call corporate propaganda of the bible to further an agenda. trace? >> trace: lauren, thank you. more now on the pushback against

the he gets us commercials, let's bring in fox entertainment reporter michelle polino and fox news' sports reporter eric. michelle, you first. the whole concept is a lot of social media she left out. $20 million, why not spend it on charitable things? if you're really christian, spend it on that. hobby lobby says this is the way we want to spread our message. what are your thoughts? >> it is fair. we're going through a cultural shift clearly and the best place to tap into culture and to tap into something we've lost -- because, i mean, the reason wokism is on the rise is because religion was squelched for so long that we've lost it in this culture. the best way to hit it is the super bowl. >> trace: right, 310 million people. you get the oscars. nobody has this kind of audience at all, eric. >> no, this is the biggest

audience we have in america. this isa also an amazing ad budget they can do this in addition to their other spending. i think it's a good strategy to not lead with the heavy theology. i think bringing the message at the end, i think as you mentioned, probably with younger people is the way to get the message across. >> trace: it's kind of been open season for a long of people because the christianity a lot of christians believe is open game. you can criticize and do what you want to. no pushback. you criticize other religiouses and watch out. general motors and netflix using will ferrell for this. watch. >> general motors is going electric and netflix is joining in by include more ev's in their movies and show. >> it's the least they can do. >> so if you're going to get swarmed by an army of the dead, why not get swarmed in an ev or if you're being voluntarily kidnapped, why not be kidnapped in an ev. >> trace: speak of woke, netflix and general motors are like, oh, everything on netflix

will be on ev. no one looks at the back story. how do you make the ev cars? how do you turn on the power to them? it's as dirty as the other cars but no one explains that. >> look, we're on the verge of an ev revolution with all of these automakers investing so much money to try to catch tesla. >> because they have to. >> they have to. there's money coming from the government to subsidize these things. nationwide, it's only 6% of new cars sales are ev. there's an untapped market. the will ferrell commercials, i've seen several of them, they're hilarious. >> trace: joe biden says we might need fossil fuels for 10 more years, michelle. >> yeah, joe. it's interesting to me because the push for these -- you know, they said this was a "natural" kind of partnership that they're not paying to be on these shows, um, but they're all getting cars and they're all driving them around and i think it's -- it's -- it's really interesting. the only way people are going to

buy these things is if they lower the price. we can see them in a zill zombie -- in a gadzillion zombie flicks. the only time someone could get one is if the price goes down. >> the new hbo zombie flick is good! >> oh my god, so good. >> trace: john travolta is honoring olivia newton john doing a summer nights themed thing for tmobile. watch this. it's pretty cool. >> >> try tmobile, it sets up so fast ♪ it's like wi-fi that runs on 5g ♪ home internet from tmobile? ♪ wait until you see. >> trace: you didn't see the payoff there, eric, because travolta does the sound in the end. >> he could still hit the high note. that's a wonderful commercial. nostalgia works great for the super bowl. >> trace: oh my gosh, michelle, i was just telling you

my daughters are grease fans and the kids they sit for are grease fans. it expand five generation -- it spanned five generations of people. >> they've done several spinoffs of grease but it's still the original that really grabs every generation because the original is the best and that's why they're bringing travolta on to do his thing. >> trace: eric and michelle, thank you very much. in the meantime, what would be your dream super bowl halftime performance? you can book anything you want. i know my first choice. there's still time to weigh in on twitter and instagram @tracegallagher. the friday night night cap crew next.

combination show, justin timberlake, chris brown and bruno mars. they're great performers, great dancers. if you're going to go dead or alive, i would still say i would love to see a prince/michael jackson halftime. >> trace: if you threw sinatra in there, too, with them, kevin, you have a little bit of everything going on. jackie ibanez, dead or alive, any super bowl act, it could be anything, what do you do? >> it's like kevin was reading my mind. i was thinking prince, michael jackson -- yes, that's right -- mariah carey and whitney houston. those are like the powerhouses! >> wow, yeah. >> trace: that is! by the way, we talked about this a couple of days ago that the all-time favorites, the three all-time favorites, michael jackson, prince and beyonce were the favorite halftime acts. michelle, you can put anybody up there. >> so, i would love -- you know, prince and taylor swift! >> really? >> wow! >> swiftie and prince?

"september" "in september" kevin corke. there's one band i don't understand why they haven't done the super bowl at halftime, it's bon jovi. anybody for bon jovi? >> yes, you said dead or alive.
