time on hbo max. join us here on cnn the week after the super bowl to find out who is talking next. welcome back to the 8:00 hour of the cnn newsroom. i m jim acosta in washington. we begin with more breaking news. some of the first images we have seen of possible debris from that chinese spy balloon downed yesterday off the coast of south carolina. this video was shot by a south carolina resident just coming in this evening. this resident told cnn he saw a navy boat carrying what he believed to be debris from the balloon. cnn cannot independently confirm whether this is indeed debris from that balloon. we are reaching out to the u.s. navy for comment. in the meantime, this comes at the same time we are learning new details about when the pentagon learned about the balloon and when the president was informed about it. more on that in a moment. i want to begin in north myrtle beach, south carolina, and the focus of the recovery efforts. ca carlos, what can you tell us abou
Committees, the china committee on which i sit and the armed services committee. we need to understand whether this balloon is giving increased capability than the satellites that china has in space. what those capabilities are. what are they learning about sensitive american technology? did they find out any information in montana or other places about our icbms? what are we going to do to make sure it s clear to the chinese that this is unacceptable, they can t be inviting american sovereignty to spy? i think that is a conversation that we need to have. the important thing is that the president acted decisively and responsibly. dismespite what congressman waltz is saying, house republicans are pushing for a resolution condemning how president biden handled this. that would come tuesday, the same day as the state of the union speech. what s your reaction to that? it s so sad that they are politicizing it.
