Former Deputy National Security Adviser Victoria Coates raises concerns of coordinated “Chinese-Russian effort” after weekend flurry of takedowns of unidentified objects over North America. Coates remarks that the “shocking fact is that the United States and Canada has had fighter jets in the air for really the last 36 hours, if not longer, and that we've had four live kills over the United States and Canada over the last eight days, is unprecedented in my understanding, and is just shocking, in and of itself.” Saying, her concern is that this might be “a coordinated Chinese-Russia effort here. And that's, that's really what makes me worry.”

0:00.0 | Hello, American. Happy Monday, a busy weekend. More shoot downs of unidentified objects it |
0:12.7 | had in curbsons into the US airspace the most recent on Sunday afternoon over Lake |
0:17.8 | Haran in Michigan, another over Alaska earlier in the weekend. But there are more questions |
0:24.3 | and answers. There are more silence by the Biden administration than transparency. And |
0:28.9 | as a result, in some really difficult questions being asked by members of Congress and by |
0:34.2 | national security experts. And so we're going to take on this topic full time today. Everybody |
0:39.4 | in America is talking about this. They want to know what's going on. Why now? What's been |
0:43.8 | going on? Is it just China? Could it be Russia as well? Those are some of the questions |
0:48.6 | being asked. And I'm hearing a lot about Russia, maybe being behind one or more of these |
0:53.8 | inanimate objects that were found over the weekend. So we got two great guests. The first |
0:58.8 | is the former director of national intelligence, a former US ambassador to Germany. Rick |
1:03.4 | Grinnell is here and he's going to give us his assessment of what's going on and why |
1:08.4 | the Biden administration's response furthers the global view that America has become weak. |
1:14.2 | We're going to talk to Ambassador Grinnell about that. And then we'll turn to Victoria |
1:18.0 | Coates, the former Deputy National Security Advisor to President Trump, one of the premier |
1:23.3 | security thinkers in the country. She has a lot to say. One of the things that we're |
1:27.6 | going to talk about with her is the vast rise of illegal Chinese immigrants crossing the |
1:33.2 | southern border statistics put out over the weekend found a 700% growth in Chinese illegals |
1:41.3 | crossing our border and being encountered by the border patrol. That is a mammoth growth. |
1:45.9 | Again, 700% is more than the actual total growth of illegal aliens. And so it's a sign |
1:52.0 | that there may be something more specific going on with China that's concerted along with |
1:56.6 | the balloon and other issues going on. Now, a little breaking news that occurred a little |
