facilities as well as into at least one residential building. also ahead, two members of the house armed services committee warn that the time is running out for u.s. to prepare itself for possible war with china. we ll speak with congressman seth bolton and mike wahle sh fresh off their trip to taiwan. plus, a new covid warning ahead of the holiday season as health officials warn of a coming wave of infections this winter. we ll be joined by cnbc s andrew ross sorkin, who exclusively sat down with the ceo of pfizer, who had covid not once but twice in the last two months. wow. very interesting. i ve got to say you can t get rid of it. i have to say i really thought i was one of these really dumb people, i didn t get it we didn t get it throughout the whole thing. traveled, found ourselves around people all the time.
as well as it is going for us and the ukrainians right now, deterrence failed. it failed completely. that s what we have to do with taiwan. congressman, a moment ago, you laid out the plans. this is a great worry for the region. talk to us about what you are hearing from allies there. japan, south korea, leaders in taiwan who are concerned not just about the china threat but suddenly a resurgent north korea that seem to be launching rockets by the day. that s absolutely right. there are growing levels of concerns across our allies. there s still some question, though, of whether they would be fully on board with the united states using their airspace and their territory as they would need to to defeat a chinese invasion of taiwan. much as we are using poland and
mar-a-lago, is it too difficult? it s harder. there are political defenses on his part. he s got a very checkered history, seditious conspiracy, and, you know, it really would be stepping on a hornet s nest because it would be unprecedented in a way that this mar-a-lago prosecution would be straightforward. so i think if mar-a-lago happened, it changes the dynamic of whether they must go forward. and there are ways to see an overall condemnation as happened in watergate, even if he faces justice on mar-a-lago but doesn t actually be put in the dock on january 6th, though i agree with you, he richly deserves it. form toer u.s. attorney and former deputy assistant attorney general harry littman, thank you very much, for joining us this morning. thank you. coming up, the tough rhetoric yesterday from china s president about taiwan. two members of congress just
germany, our allies in romania, it is clear with the nato alliance as we help ukraine defend its democracy. there is not the same structure and the same commitments in the pacific to help taiwan it s front line of democracy. and so i think those alliances are something we need to shore up. logistics will be exponentially harder across the pacific. that s double the size the atlantic ocean. that s another issue that representative bolton and i will take a hard look at as we provide oversight. but at the end of the day, again, zee is very clear he will take taiwan one way or the other and set this right in that we have to deter that from happening. every time zee believes he is ready militarily, he has to look at taiwan, look at the pacific, look at our alliances and the united states military and say this will cost us too much and hopefully continue to delay that
