a result of people that had political bias. you tube under fire after removing an interview with r.f.k. jr. claiming it violates their vaccine information policy. if we were editing this, joe biden videos would be taken down because he said vaccinated people couldn t get covid. will: fox news alert. clock is ticking to rescue five people aboard a submersible like this one that went missing during a dive to view the titanic wreckage site. brian: officials say the vessel has less than 70 hours before it runs out of air. ainsley: submarine can leave from a port. submersible cannot. that s why it s called a sub but not a submarine. todd joins us now with more. hey, todd. massive search and rescue operation under way right now for that submersible missing in the north atlantic. it was transporting a crew of five people some 12,000 feet underwater to tour the famous shipwreck. costs passengers about $250,000 per person. now, the crew launched around 4:00 a.m. on sunday.
over the continental united states. the public has the ability to look up in the sky and see why the balloon is. john: look up and smile, that was the pentagon, moments ago senator roger marshall announcing the balloon is over his state, hovering over northeast kansas. gillian: for years we have been following beijing s spra spra sprawling apparatus, and now it s hanging over the heads of millions of americans. telling fox it s intentional and calling it a violation of u.s. sovereignty. the balloon is about the size of two school busses head to tail. pentagon says it will linger over the country a few more days. john: the president was briefed on tuesday. is he going to take any action? i m john roberts in washington. of all the things you never thought you would talk about, would this be near the top of your list? gillian: no, but interesting, makes for good discussion points, a whole range of issues. gillian turner in for sandra smith. that balloon is one of a whole
and at the recommendation of the pentagon, president biden ordered the military to down the object and they did. and it came inside our territorial waters. will: so, what is this thing? is this another chinese balloon in the pentagon says they have no clue or they are just playing stupid. can you say definitively it was not a balloon? i don t at this point, considering the fact that we re still assessing the object. i don t want to get into characterizing it. will: so, they are calling it an object. we don t know what kind. an object could literally be anything. they say it was so lynn democratic call in shape. but, also, the size of a chevy malibu. apples and oranges here in terms of size. as i said, this was the size of a small car and it was over very sparsely populated area but also more critically over it was over water. but, it completely different size. the debris field much, much smaller. will: biden wasted no time in shooting down this so-called object.
instantaneously as it s taken. so a statement like that is so stupid. they ve taken pictures of every one of our nuclear facilities in the midwest where we have a lot where they know better than anybody that we have a lot. you re saying that wouldn t have happened under you. they wouldn t have done it. president xi and i had a strong relationship like i did with kim jong un of north korea. ainsley: do you agree with that? if president trump were in office when that spy balloon were coming closer to the united states, would he have shot it down? or intervened or even sent it at all? i do, ainsley. i think it would have been shot down over the pacific ocean and not the atlantic and certainly wouldn t have been allowed to linger over our missile silos and nuclear command and control center and a stealth bomber base for five days because i think, you know, what president trump is speaking to is right now our adversaries don t believe there s any consequences for their bad actions.
did the first time, why couldn t we then report back? it s just, again, it begs more questions and i think the bigger question is why is the ccp doing this? right on the heels of its meeting with biden just before blinken was supposed to come. we were made to believe that there was going to be some kind of a reset. yet, these are in your face actions and, again, to the criteria. we allow one. biden says it s no big deal. but, yet, it not only hovered over our icbm site it hovered over a stealth bomber base and over the command and control center for our entire nuclear arsenal. hovered over it, loitered over it at 60,000 feet. you can collect a lot. clearly the chinese believe that this is providing them something. so, we still have a ton of questions from an oversight standpoint. and we re not getting a lot of
