i m aishah hosni. the new report claims despite u.s. efforts to block it, that chinese spy craft was able to collect sensitive electronic signals from weapons, equipment and communication channels as it floated above all those military installations sending them right back to china in realtime. this was the worst case scenario. now we know it happened. fox not able to confirm this nbc report. u.s. officials are already pushing back on this telling us the information it got was of limited value. that craft first entered u.s. airspace over alaska back in january 28th. it was shot down february 4th off the south carolina coast. mike emanuel with more on this late braking news. the new report from nbc says the chinese spy balloon gathered intelligence from several sensitive american military sites despite the biden efforts from keeping it from doing so. it came from a senior administration official. china was able to control the balloon to make multiple passes over key sites de
yeah. i think he has a lot of those qualities that trump voters, conservative populists, like. winning elections require a coalition, right? you have to build a coalition. you can t just have a certain part of the party. you can t just have the base. you have to be able to bring people together to get over the finish line. obviously in a primary but also in a general election. and so i think that he is conveying that he is capable of doing that. bill: last point here. asa hutchinson declared he will be in over the weekend on fox news sunday. the former governor of arkansas. how big is the field, do you believe, as of today? well, we have nikki haley, we have vivek ramaswamy. president trump waiting in the
apparently it is for the times. in response the times issued a statement that reads our best seller s list are based on detailed analysis of book sales from a wide range of retailers, tens of thousands of brick and mortar stores and numerous online book selling vendors to best represent what is selling across the united states. despite the controversy, patterson s book countdown ranks number five on the new york times best seller list for hard cover fiction. bill: who is counting, huh? aishah: i don t have one. bill: we re keeping an eye on president trump s movements today. he will leave mar-a-lago next hour bound for new york city. court appearance tuesday late morning into early afternoon. more coming up on that. the nascar truck series driver dean thompson involved in a serious crash from over the weekend. we will check in, oh, oh, we will check in on his condition.

this is unique. you have someone who is a candidate for the presidency of the united states. this is one of the court issues that will be part of that campaign. trump is already campaigning on the weaponization of the criminal justice system. i think a gag order would be quite problematic and potentially unconstitutional. i can t imagine a judge gagging a presidential candidate to talk about a matter of such great public importance. i am generally not a fan of gag orders because of first amendment issues. but here i think a gag order would find really a skeptical series of appeals in front of courts. i think they would probably challenge that quickly. bill: his attorneys will is ask for a venue change. i imagine that will fail. will the judge allow cameras in the courtroom? on the venue issue they almost always fail.
