dangerous toxins have been removed and a lot of people saying we don t want them. the president says he has no plans to go to east palestine. but should these developments force him to change his mind? we re going to ask ohio s lieutenant governor, john houston. he s here. i m neil cavuto. the lieutenant governor will be coming to join us right now and we to have these various officials from the epa, fema and others that will address where this cleanup process stands. we should say it was temporarily stored for more than a temporary amount of time. mike tobin is there with the latest. mike? neil, the work is getting underway at the cleanup site here once again. it was halted over the weekend because they had a communication breakdown and ended up with no place to ship the contaminated soil and water. they found a couple of locations here in ohio, a couple of hazmat locations to move the contaminated soil and water so they can do that safely. one thing that people here in ea
reliable potential contact with the missing submarine? jim, i think that i would agree with the coast guard captain who said sthey don t knw exactly what they have. they are all out there looking at it and we could put conjecture into it, but if they knew for sure that it was someone banging on a hull with an s.o.s., they would have told us. so i think right now the answer is for us out here, they really don t know what they have. and that is important for expectations management. but it is apparently the best they have. so you have this indicator here, indeterminate one. you throw everything you can at it. what is the stage now? you are still going to be listening with what are effectively sub hunting aircraft, the p-3s and p-8s, there is also side scan sonar going out there. can you search the area twice the size of connecticut quickly
something of this size which is to say not all that large, the submersible, as long as you can find it. that remains the key question to this point. and back when we started this, what are the search assets. first c-130s, used in the surface of the water. long-range abilities to keep searching an area the size of connecticut. by later today, air national guard c 1-30 will conduct a search over the area. we would have committed consider-130s to flights. in addition to that the navy has been in touch with the coast guard and is working to provide personnel, such as subject matter experts and assets as quickly as possible. the canadian coast guard has also dedicated. p-8s and p-3s.
happening now. the only thing is they re harassing our p-8s. china is being irresponsible and it s important to have bipartisan direction when we go out and talk about it in the world. neil: switching to you, congressman ro khanna. we re committing now 200 troops to taiwan. i think from around 30 now. and that is something else that is not been greeted favorably. not surprisingly by taiwan. do you support that? some look at that as a pro view of coming a tractions that we ll send more. what do you say? our commitment to train taiwan in its own self-defense is appropriate. there s nothing provocative about politicians going to taiwan given our ties with semi conductors, given that president carter that signed the taiwan relation act and recognized
then his berating continued berating of the nato members for those who fail to continue 2% of their gdp, which to me is not a very meaningful measure. not to get off on this, but just take greece, for example, which spends 60% of it makes the 2%, but a good part of that, over half is for pay and pensions. then you look at a country like norway, which is a staunch ally of the united states, who doesn t make the 2% but is buying, you know, significant weapons systems like f-35s, and p-8s just to name a couple things. so having as a common denominator the 2% thing, to me, is pretty silly. in a domestic context, i thought his failure to go to the you know, because of the rain was an insult not only to world war i veterans but, for that matter,
