President Biden on Thursday made a speech about the recent spade of shootdowns over the

and let's take a quick listen of what he had to say. We don't yet know exactly what these three

essentially picking up more stuff than before. In other words, it sort of looks like we underreacted

it after some civilians in Montana spotted it and only shot it down after blowback from Congress.
