emily harding is deputy director and senior fellow of the international security programme at the centeror strategic and international studies. she told me we have to keep an open mind about the flying objects. it's very important to separate what we know from what we suspect or only know a little bit about. what we definitively know is quite a bit about the chinese balloon that was downed off the coast of south carolina. we know that it was large. we know that it was high altitude. carrying a payload that probably included some pretty significant intelligence collection capabilities. for the other three objects, though, we know relatively little. we know that they were operating at a lower altitude than that first balloon. we know that they were different shapes, different sizes, and they were operating much further north. what we don't know yet is who created them, who launched them, what kinds of payloads they may have been carrying. we should know a lot more once the debris fields are reached. emily, you know, it strikes me that it's been unprecedented in a way, hasn't it, the number

emily coors added. i think we probably have this. you probably have a fair idea of what may be in there. i'm trying very hard to say that delicately. again, mr. ackerman, sooner or later we may have the underlying materials. but you read that as her saying a plot twist would be to veer away from trump, who was both the plotter and beneficiary of this, and you're saying, no -- she's saying no twists, because if you go forward you end up where? >> you end with donald trump. this is not going to the white lotus where you don't know who was killed and who did it and when it happened. what she is saying is, it's obvious, and when you combine that with everything else we know, including judgment bernie's opinion, i don't think there's any conclusion you can come to here other than donald trump is going to be indicted in georgia. but keep in mind, he was recommended. at the end of the day, the decision is made by the district attorney. >> which we emphasized. what you're reading is they don't have a twist because the grand jury recommended indicting trump, and you expect d.a. willis would act on that and when? >> i don't know when. she wa

hard. so thank you for sharing that. i do want to talk to you about of the things i've heard about hospice care in recent years. one of my dearest and closest friend, emily wax's, husband is dying. and he ended up dying this past week. but for years he was going through -- he had cancer that had spread around and through his body. she talked about hospice care and what she went through with that, and that it wasn't as she had hoped it would be, that there's been a lot of moneys that have not gone to things like hospice care. is that something that you have found that it isn't as funded as it once was? >> well, i think that this is a branch of medicine that is -- that is really well studied. there are incredible providers for it in this field. but unfortunately, not a lot of people know about it, not a lot of people know to enroll their loved ones in hospice care, that it's even a possibility. and it certainly is something that deserves a lot more funding. at the moment, medicare, medicaid, private insurance, they do cover hospice as an option. i would just say that for individuals who are near the end of their life and for family members who are also str
