south carolina. the president just a little while ago says it was always his plan to take it out. we made it clear to china what we were going to do. they understand our position. we will not back off. we did the right thing. has it always been your view to shoot down a chinese spy balloon or only because it became public? oh, no it was always my position. once it came to the united states from canada i told them i wanted to shoot it down as soon as appropriate. they concluded, they concluded we should not shoot it down over land. they are not a serious threat and we should wait. greg: clearly this is his finest moment since corn pop. part of this scooped up and sent over to the fbi for further analysis and despite assuring the american people there was no threat the senior u.s. official says there may have been self detonating explosives off of the vessel. just like jessie s hair appeared republicans are reacting with usual pouncing. the message they were trying to
state of the union address. i will say they were so many accomplishments on this administration, it can be difficult to list them in a distilled way. jesse: there is just so many reasons that i can t list where to begin. that never happens to me. greg: never. he says inflation is already here appear that is like starting a seven alarm fire and there was a dirt flame already in the fireplace. and, the only people apparently doing well in the biden economy is biden s family. [laughter] it is amazing, like they will not say who is behind a half-million dollar paintings. i don t blame them because it is somewhat unsavory. he is very lucky. putin presidency came about at the perfect time. frantically distracted population and the president in the ids, 70s when he tried to run, it would be more of a
unprecedented leak from the supreme court materializing they will talk about that with guy benson. and joe concha. great to have you with us. joe, this is one of the biggest stories to break. i m reminded tonight the time magazine broke some of roving weight and what was going to happen with that case but i can t remember something of this magnitude in the 15 years i have covered the court. what do you make of the media moving ahead with something like this tonight? drafts like this, they are leak to set off a seven alarm fire to democrats, liberals that this could happen in to start mobilizing. it s virtually guaranteed as a result, this will blot out the sun as far as media coverage over the foreseeable future quite frankly. you will see massive protests, marches in cities across the country as early as this weekend and wait till you see the headlines in the op-eds tomorrow. hyperbole doesn t begin to describe what we are in store for already tonight. you can see it online.
