19
00:01:04,000 --> 00:01:07,080
Speaker 1: following today. The US military has taken out of fourth

20
00:01:07,080 --> 00:01:10,280
Speaker 1: object in the skies in eight days. The Pentagon hell

21
00:01:10,360 --> 00:01:12,919
Speaker 1: the briefing last night during the Super Bowl to answer

22
00:01:13,080 --> 00:01:16,280
Speaker 1: questions about what these objects are and where they're from.

23
00:01:16,800 --> 00:01:19,640
Speaker 1: General Glenn Van Herk Is, commander of the North American

24
00:01:19,640 --> 00:01:24,360
Speaker 1: Aerospace Defense Command. They're similar in size, similar in speeds

25
00:01:24,360 --> 00:01:27,319
Speaker 1: that go with the wind on these objects that we've seen.

26
00:01:27,800 --> 00:01:30,080
Speaker 1: As far as specific shapes, we've got to get our

27
00:01:30,120 --> 00:01:34,160
Speaker 1: hands on those. Connecticut Representative Jim Hims tells NBC's Meet

28
00:01:34,160 --> 00:01:37,000
Speaker 1: the Press, heard Sundays on Bloomberg Radio that the US

29
00:01:37,160 --> 00:01:40,680
Speaker 1: is seeing more unidentified objects in our skies because we're

30
00:01:40,720 --> 00:01:44,960
Speaker 1: looking for them. Most of our sensors and most of

31
00:01:44,959 --> 00:01:47,000
Speaker 1: what we were looking for didn't look like balloons. Now,

32
00:01:47,040 --> 00:01:48,680
Speaker 1: of course we're looking for them, so I think we're

33
00:01:48,680 --> 00:01:52,120
Speaker 1: probably finding more stuff. Recovery efforts are underway for all

34
00:01:52,120 --> 00:01:55,280
Speaker 1: four objects, including the suspected spy balloon at the bottom

35
00:01:55,360 --> 00:01:57,760
Speaker 1: of the Atlantic Ocean. Well, I mean. The war of

36
00:01:57,760 --> 00:02:01,320
Speaker 1: words continues this morning over the balloon controversy. China says

37
00:02:01,320 --> 00:02:04,400
Speaker 1: the US has repeatedly flown balloons over its country. We

38
00:02:04,480 --> 00:02:08,480
Speaker 1: gain more from Bloomberg's Derek Wallbang, China says US balloons

39
00:02:08,520 --> 00:02:13,440
Speaker 1: trespassed over ten times since January, So now there's getting

40
00:02:13,440 --> 00:02:15,240
Speaker 1: to be a bit of a tip for Tatton back

41
00:02:15,280 --> 00:02:17,840
Speaker 1: and forth about who's doing what. All of this is

42
00:02:17,880 --> 00:02:21,280
Speaker 1: sounding very much unlike that detent that we were hearing

43
00:02:21,320 --> 00:02:24,440
Speaker 1: about out of the G twenty leaders meeting in Bali,

44
00:02:24,480 --> 00:02:27,400
Speaker 1: where Season Ping and Joe Biden we're talking about and

45
00:02:27,600 --> 00:02:31,680
Speaker 1: easing of ties and wanting to have senior officials meeting

46
00:02:31,720 --> 00:02:34,560
Speaker 1: and things, and and this has really gotten in the

47
00:02:34,600 --> 00:02:37,640
Speaker 1: way of that, and Bloombergs Derek Wallbang says. Media reports

48
00:02:37,639 --> 00:02:40,000
Speaker 1: at Asia say China is preparing to take down an

49
00:02:40,040 --> 00:02:43,639
Speaker 1: unidentified object found flying over its waters. And now we

50
00:02:43,720 --> 00:02:46,079
Speaker 1: turn to the latest on those two massive earthquakes that

51
00:02:46,120 --> 00:02:48,880
Speaker 1: struck Turkey and Syria last week. The death toll has

52
00:02:48,880 --> 00:02:52,320
Speaker 1: climbed in near thirty five thousand people. That has criticism

53
00:02:52,320 --> 00:02:56,440
Speaker 1: mounting on Turkey's government. Bloomberg simmendemic in reports from ms Dembul,

54
00:02:56,760 --> 00:03:00,600
Speaker 1: survivors and opposition policies are saying that the government was

55
00:03:00,680 --> 00:03:04,240
Speaker 1: just ill equipped and too slow in responding, especially on

56
00:03:04,280 --> 00:03:08,760
Speaker 1: the first day, missing a critical window of saving more people.

57
00:03:09,080 --> 00:03:14,320
Speaker 1: And there's all also huge complaints about shoddy construction Bloomberg

58
00:03:14,320 --> 00:03:18,200
Speaker 1: Simon Demo cans as dozens of contractors are under investigation

59
00:03:18,280 --> 00:03:22,240
Speaker 1: for shoddy construction following the earthquake. Three have been arrested. Well,

60
00:03:22,280 --> 00:03:24,720
Speaker 1: I mean, much more ahead of these developing stories throughout

61
00:03:24,760 --> 00:03:27,080
Speaker 1: the broadcast, but first we turn our attention to a

62
00:03:27,120 --> 00:03:31,040
Speaker 1: Super Bowl classic that is an enveloped in controversy. This

63
00:03:31,120 --> 00:03:34,920
Speaker 1: morning at Bloomberg, John Stashower joins US Live with the details. John,

64
00:03:34,960 --> 00:03:36,840
Speaker 1: good morning, give me wanning care in the kN City.

65
00:03:36,880 --> 00:03:39,520
Speaker 1: Chiefs went fifty years without winning or even playing in

66
00:03:39,520 --> 00:03:41,840
Speaker 1: the Super Bowl. This was their third the last four years,

67
00:03:41,840 --> 00:03:43,880
Speaker 1: and their second victory. This one, like the previous one,

68
00:03:43,880 --> 00:03:46,680
Speaker 1: a come from behind. When Chiefs only had the ball

69
00:03:46,720 --> 00:03:48,560
Speaker 1: for eight minutes of the first half, They trailed the

70
00:03:48,600 --> 00:03:51,960
Speaker 1: Eagles by ten, but scored three second half touchdowns that

71
00:03:52,040 --> 00:03:54,880
Speaker 1: go up by eight. Philadelphia then tied the game k

72
00:03:55,080 --> 00:03:57,680
Speaker 1: C one and a light field goal, help by a

73
00:03:57,800 --> 00:04:01,920
Speaker 1: questionable holding penalty again the Eagles. Patrick Mahomes named Super

74
00:04:01,920 --> 00:04:04,120
Speaker 1: Bowl m v P. Much more coming up in sports,

75
00:04:04,160 --> 00:04:07,680
Speaker 1: John stash Were Bloomberg Daybreak. All right, thank you, John,

76
00:04:07,680 --> 00:04:09,680
Speaker 1: We're gonna have more last night's game coming up in

77
00:04:09,720 --> 00:04:12,080
Speaker 1: our sports report, but first we turned to markets. Features

78
00:04:12,080 --> 00:04:15,280
Speaker 1: are mixed following the worst week for stocks since December.

79
00:04:15,280 --> 00:04:19,040
Speaker 1: Morgan Stanley strategist Mike Wilson says there's more selling ahead.

80
00:04:19,080 --> 00:04:22,279
Speaker 1: Wilson sees the SMP five ending the year at thirty

81
00:04:22,360 --> 00:04:25,440
Speaker 1: nine hundred, down nearly five percent from current levels. He

82
00:04:25,520 --> 00:04:28,360
Speaker 1: says stocks will fall as earnings estimates come down, before

83
00:04:28,400 --> 00:04:32,000
Speaker 1: rebounding in the second half well amy A catalyst for

84
00:04:32,080 --> 00:04:34,560
Speaker 1: stocks this week could come tomorrow, with the release of

85
00:04:34,600 --> 00:04:37,599
Speaker 1: a key inflation report. FED officials have been warning Wall

86
00:04:37,680 --> 00:04:40,279
Speaker 1: Street not to get carried away about a quick drop

87
00:04:40,279 --> 00:04:44,480
Speaker 1: and inflation, and Bloomberg Economics correspondent Michael McKee says tomorrow's

88
00:04:44,520 --> 00:04:48,000
Speaker 1: report will luckily prove their point. The CPI report, out

89
00:04:48,000 --> 00:04:50,440
Speaker 1: Tuesday morning, is forecast to show a big jump in

90
00:04:50,520 --> 00:04:53,920
Speaker 1: headline inflation during the month, in part because of oil prices.

91
00:04:54,360 --> 00:04:57,719
Speaker 1: Core expected to be unchanged, but both will be affected

92
00:04:57,720 --> 00:05:00,640
Speaker 1: by a rewaiting of sectors within the cp I to

93
00:05:00,760 --> 00:05:04,160
Speaker 1: better reflect what people are actually spending on. The annual

94
00:05:04,200 --> 00:05:06,479
Speaker 1: inflation rate will go down, but to the FED, the

95
00:05:06,520 --> 00:05:09,720
Speaker 1: most recent data matters the most. The other major data

96
00:05:09,800 --> 00:05:12,480
Speaker 1: point for the week is Wednesday's release on retail sales

97
00:05:12,520 --> 00:05:15,640
Speaker 1: for January. The forecast is for a big rebound after

98
00:05:15,680 --> 00:05:19,719
Speaker 1: a December decline. Both numbers likely reinforcing the Fed's argument

99
00:05:19,800 --> 00:05:23,680
Speaker 1: for more rate hikes. Ahead Michael McKey, Bloomberg Daybreak, Thanks,

100
00:05:23,680 --> 00:05:26,359
Speaker 1: Mike Eltwear on Wall Street. The boss at Goldman Sachs

101
00:05:26,400 --> 00:05:29,880
Speaker 1: says he should have slashed jobs sooner. Let's get those details.

102

Speaker 1: Live with Bloomberg. Steve Rappaport, Good morning, Steve, Good morning,

103
00:05:32,920 --> 00:05:36,040
Speaker 1: Amy and Karen. David Solomon says he should have followed

104
00:05:36,040 --> 00:05:38,120
Speaker 1: his gut when it comes to job cuts. In a

105
00:05:38,160 --> 00:05:41,360
Speaker 1: private meeting with hundreds of Goldman's partners, Solomon lamented he

106
00:05:41,400 --> 00:05:44,240
Speaker 1: was too slow in reducing the workforce as the environment

107
00:05:44,320 --> 00:05:47,240
Speaker 1: was growing more complicated in the second quarter last year.

108
00:05:47,440 --> 00:05:50,120
Speaker 1: That's according to a report in The Financial Times, Goldman

109
00:05:50,160 --> 00:05:53,240
Speaker 1: Sacks slashed about thirty hundred jobs last month following a

110
00:05:53,360 --> 00:05:57,160
Speaker 1: larger than expected spike in expenses and plumbing revenue and profit.

111
00:05:57,400 --> 00:06:00,640
Speaker 1: Live in New York. I'm Steve Rappaport Bloomberg Daybreak. All right, Steve,

Speaker 1: York and around the world. For that, we're joined by

127
00:06:50,200 --> 00:06:53,360
Speaker 1: Bloomberg's Michael bar Good morning, Michael, Good morning Amy. A

128
00:06:53,480 --> 00:06:57,400
Speaker 1: jury today will begin considering whether an Islamic extremist should

129
00:06:57,400 --> 00:07:00,080
Speaker 1: be sentenced to death for killing eight people on a

130
00:07:00,080 --> 00:07:03,600
Speaker 1: New York City bike path. Say fulusip Off was convicted

131
00:07:03,680 --> 00:07:06,320
Speaker 1: last month in the seventeen attack in which he mowed

132
00:07:06,320 --> 00:07:09,560
Speaker 1: down bicyclists with a truck. The same jury that found

133
00:07:09,560 --> 00:07:12,600
Speaker 1: ship Off guilty will now hear from additional witnesses in

134
00:07:12,640 --> 00:07:16,600
Speaker 1: the trial's penalty phase. The Philippines has accused a Chinese

135
00:07:16,640 --> 00:07:20,120
Speaker 1: Coastguard ship of hitting a Philippine Coastguard vessel with a

136
00:07:20,160 --> 00:07:23,920
Speaker 1: military grade laser and temporarily blinding some of its crew

137
00:07:23,960 --> 00:07:27,520
Speaker 1: in the disputed South China Sea. The Philippine officials says

138
00:07:27,560 --> 00:07:30,760
Speaker 1: it's the first time China has used lasers and caused

139
00:07:30,760 --> 00:07:35,200
Speaker 1: injury to Filipino personnel. Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer continued

140
00:07:35,240 --> 00:07:38,480
Speaker 1: to call on How Speaker Kevin McCarthy to publicly present

141
00:07:38,560 --> 00:07:42,440
Speaker 1: the Republican's budget proposal over the debt ceiling battle. Senator

142
00:07:42,480 --> 00:07:45,680
Speaker 1: Schumer says if he's prepared to hold the country's financial

143
00:07:45,720 --> 00:07:49,440
Speaker 1: future hostage by refusing to raise the debt ceiling, should

144
00:07:49,480 --> 00:07:52,960
Speaker 1: be opened about what these Republican demands for the country's

145
00:07:53,000 --> 00:07:58,320
Speaker 1: budget are. He wants to attach certain spending cuts to

146
00:07:58,440 --> 00:08:04,320
Speaker 1: do this. Hey, where is your plan, Mr McCarthy, He

147
00:08:04,360 --> 00:08:06,160
Speaker 1: says he wants cuts. We asked him which ones. He

148
00:08:06,200 --> 00:08:10,160
Speaker 1: won't say any Meanwhile, Republican Representative James Kohmer says that

149
00:08:10,280 --> 00:08:14,120
Speaker 1: Social Security and Medicare will not be among those cuts

150
00:08:14,360 --> 00:08:18,320
Speaker 1: and slams Democratic leaders for claiming they would be. When

151
00:08:18,360 --> 00:08:19,960
Speaker 1: you get to the point to where we are now,

152
00:08:20,000 --> 00:08:22,080
Speaker 1: where we've got to make cuts, it's a lot tougher.

153
00:08:22,480 --> 00:08:25,240
Speaker 1: We're not going to cut Social Security or Medicare. We've

154
00:08:25,280 --> 00:08:29,720
Speaker 1: been very clear about that. It's it's very disappointing that

155
00:08:29,840 --> 00:08:32,720
Speaker 1: the President and Chuck Schumer would continue to try to

156
00:08:33,240 --> 00:08:37,920

169
00:09:21,440 --> 00:09:23,480
Speaker 1: Cy Chiefs won the Super Bowl by coming from behind

170
00:09:23,520 --> 00:09:26,000
Speaker 1: the second half. They did it again in Phoenix. They

171
00:09:26,040 --> 00:09:29,240
Speaker 1: trailed Philadelphia by senate a halftime Chiefs couldn't stop the Eagles,

Speaker 1: who held Casey the only eight minutes of first half

173
00:09:31,840 --> 00:09:35,960
Speaker 1: possession time. But things changed second half. Patrick Mahomes engineered

174
00:09:35,960 --> 00:09:38,760
Speaker 1: to seventy five yard ten drives. The second one ended

175
00:09:38,920 --> 00:09:41,640
Speaker 1: and is scored by Cadarius Tony, who was the Giant's

176
00:09:41,679 --> 00:09:44,120
Speaker 1: first round draft pick last year. They traded him to

177
00:09:44,120 --> 00:09:46,920
Speaker 1: the Chiefs and Tony was hardly done there over in

178
00:09:47,040 --> 00:09:49,440
Speaker 1: shorter punt and Tony will take it low at the

179
00:09:49,440 --> 00:09:51,720
Speaker 1: thirty five. Now cuts back to the right. He's got

180
00:09:51,720 --> 00:09:53,680
Speaker 1: a wall set. If you can get to the edge,

181
00:09:53,800 --> 00:09:56,440
Speaker 1: they you need to pluck the putter. They do. Tony's

182
00:09:56,480 --> 00:09:58,760
Speaker 1: at the forty, up the side line. At the thirty,

183
00:09:59,000 --> 00:10:01,600
Speaker 1: he's at the twenty. Tony put the plot trying to

184

205
00:11:05,200 --> 00:11:10,360
Speaker 1: Bloomberg dot Com. This is Bloomberg Daybreak. Good morning, I'm

206
00:11:10,360 --> 00:11:14,120
Speaker 1: Abe Morris. In the past eight days, the US military

207
00:11:14,160 --> 00:11:18,520
Speaker 1: has shot down four unidentified objects in North American airspace,

208
00:11:18,559 --> 00:11:21,720
Speaker 1: and now China says US balloons are flying illegally or

209
00:11:21,760 --> 00:11:25,200
Speaker 1: have been flying illegally in China's airspace at least ten

210
00:11:25,280 --> 00:11:28,000
Speaker 1: times in the past year. Let's get more on all

211
00:11:28,040 --> 00:11:32,600
Speaker 1: of this from Bloomberg News Managing editor Derek Wallbang in Singapore. Derek,

212
00:11:32,640 --> 00:11:34,319
Speaker 1: it is a pleasure to talk to you. Thanks so

213
00:11:34,400 --> 00:11:36,960
Speaker 1: much for taking the time with us. Oh, thank you

214
00:11:37,000 --> 00:11:40,520
Speaker 1: so much for having me. Uh, let's just start right away.

215
00:11:40,880 --> 00:11:44,640
Speaker 1: The response from China ten U S balloons at minimum

216
00:11:44,679 --> 00:11:47,520
Speaker 1: in the past year. Tell us about that. That is

217
00:11:47,559 --> 00:11:50,800
Speaker 1: what they said, Foreign Ministry spokesman and actually told reporters quote,

218
00:11:50,800 --> 00:11:53,440
Speaker 1: it's nothing rare for U S balloons to illegally enter

219
00:11:53,640 --> 00:11:59,640
Speaker 1: other countries airspace. Um added added that the US quote

220
00:11:59,640 --> 00:12:04,160
Speaker 1: needs to reflect upon itself and change it's wrong practice. Uh.

221
00:12:04,200 --> 00:12:07,680
Speaker 1: This is a sort of response about you know, you're

222
00:12:07,760 --> 00:12:10,920
Speaker 1: you're mad, You're you're worse, you're doing it to um,

223
00:12:10,960 --> 00:12:13,800
Speaker 1: you know sort of that that I guess one might

224
00:12:13,800 --> 00:12:17,080
Speaker 1: say a playground style back and forth. Um. But it's

225
00:12:17,120 --> 00:12:22,840
Speaker 1: really clear that the balloons or or whatever is going

226
00:12:22,920 --> 00:12:28,200
Speaker 1: on is is limiting that day to between the US

227
00:12:28,240 --> 00:12:29,760
Speaker 1: and China that you saw come out of the G

228
00:12:29,920 --> 00:12:35,240
Speaker 1: twenty and Bali in November. There had been ideas about

229
00:12:35,240 --> 00:12:40,200
Speaker 1: a warmer relationship. There had been uh talks about senior

230
00:12:40,280 --> 00:12:43,760
Speaker 1: level visits from one country to another. A lot of

231
00:12:43,800 --> 00:12:46,760
Speaker 1: that has been put on hold. And you're what you're

232
00:12:46,800 --> 00:12:50,880
Speaker 1: hearing right now is rhetoric that is suggesting going exactly

233
00:12:50,920 --> 00:12:56,080
Speaker 1: the opposite way, Uh from where where Joe Biden and

234
00:12:56,120 --> 00:13:00,079
Speaker 1: Hi Jimping were. Uh, we're signaling how do they it

235
00:13:00,240 --> 00:13:04,640
Speaker 1: passed this at this point? My question is whether the

236
00:13:04,720 --> 00:13:08,920
Speaker 1: US has been shooting down these objects. If China starts

237
00:13:08,960 --> 00:13:13,880
Speaker 1: shooting down these objects, does this escalate? Can it get worse? Well?

238
00:13:13,920 --> 00:13:16,400
Speaker 1: I think one of the things that it highlights to

239
00:13:16,520 --> 00:13:19,080
Speaker 1: me is I think I'd say two things here. One

240
00:13:19,559 --> 00:13:22,720
Speaker 1: is it highlights how much of that detent was built

241
00:13:22,720 --> 00:13:24,920
Speaker 1: on a sort of fragility, Right the U. S And

242
00:13:25,000 --> 00:13:29,560
Speaker 1: China fundamental differences, Uh, those didn't necessarily ease And if

243
00:13:29,640 --> 00:13:34,400
Speaker 1: it takes one weather balloon looking thing carrying whatever it

244
00:13:34,480 --> 00:13:38,320
Speaker 1: was carrying, crossing over the United States to completely upend

245
00:13:38,360 --> 00:13:41,679
Speaker 1: that what a fragile piece that had been built. A

246
00:13:41,800 --> 00:13:45,480
Speaker 1: second thing is I think that there is a bigger

247
00:13:45,559 --> 00:13:47,840
Speaker 1: awakening I guess I would say across the world to

248
00:13:48,000 --> 00:13:51,679
Speaker 1: this sort of what may be surveillance. Right, you're talking

249
00:13:51,720 --> 00:13:55,040
Speaker 1: about four items shot down over North America. You're talking

250
00:13:55,040 --> 00:14:00,480
Speaker 1: about a possible balloon like item overt over Latin America. Uh.

251
00:14:00,520 --> 00:14:04,880
Speaker 1: Taiwan said balloon style incursions are a regular thing. Uh.

252
00:14:04,920 --> 00:14:10,080
Speaker 1: And then the UK says that that Chinese surveillance balloons

253
00:14:10,080 --> 00:14:12,840
Speaker 1: may have been spying over Britain as well. So all

254
00:14:12,880 --> 00:14:17,280
Speaker 1: across there, you're you're having this bigger awareness of what's

255
00:14:17,320 --> 00:14:19,760
Speaker 1: going on. And additionally, I think I might I might

256
00:14:19,800 --> 00:14:22,960
Speaker 1: note any is that the U s policy on this

257
00:14:23,080 --> 00:14:24,720
Speaker 1: has moved rapidly, and I think a lot of the

258
00:14:24,720 --> 00:14:29,560
Speaker 1: world's policy has moved rapidly from um a curiosity and

259
00:14:29,680 --> 00:14:32,600
Speaker 1: wondering what should be done to just decisive action. We're

260
00:14:32,640 --> 00:14:34,560
Speaker 1: just going to shoot this right down, because you remember

261
00:14:34,600 --> 00:14:36,880
Speaker 1: that first one that went went over the US, right

262
00:14:36,880 --> 00:14:38,960
Speaker 1: across quite a lot of territory, quite a lot of days,

263
00:14:39,000 --> 00:14:42,720
Speaker 1: eventually gets taken out just off the coast of South Carolina.

264
00:14:43,160 --> 00:14:47,120
Speaker 1: Numbers two, three, and four went down real fast. You know,

265
00:14:47,200 --> 00:14:49,680
Speaker 1: I was gonna ask you about that very thing, because

266
00:14:49,680 --> 00:14:54,200
Speaker 1: they seemed to be comfortable watching it and tracking it

267
00:14:54,240 --> 00:14:57,600
Speaker 1: while it flew by, and once they got over you know,

268
00:14:57,760 --> 00:14:59,640
Speaker 1: out into the Atlantic. They were able to take that

269
00:14:59,760 --> 00:15:03,880
Speaker 1: first one down. But my question now then is is

270
00:15:03,920 --> 00:15:06,960
Speaker 1: this getting traction because they're being tracked now? Are they

271
00:15:07,000 --> 00:15:10,840
Speaker 1: tracking them more closely? There are these balloons of common

272
00:15:10,840 --> 00:15:12,840
Speaker 1: practice that the rest of us are just now becoming

273
00:15:12,880 --> 00:15:15,160
Speaker 1: aware of because of that balloon off the coast of

274
00:15:15,200 --> 00:15:18,080
Speaker 1: South Carolina. Well, I think that's a great question. And

275
00:15:18,080 --> 00:15:22,960
Speaker 1: the Defense Department told reporters the other day that they've

276
00:15:23,000 --> 00:15:27,480
Speaker 1: been more closely scrutinizing airspace at the altitudes that these

277
00:15:27,960 --> 00:15:32,280
Speaker 1: objects had been traversing, and including enhancing radar, which might

278
00:15:32,400 --> 00:15:37,160
Speaker 1: explain partly the increase in object detected recently. So it

279
00:15:37,200 --> 00:15:40,760
Speaker 1: may be in some way that you're finding more things

280
00:15:40,800 --> 00:15:43,760
Speaker 1: because you're looking for them right, Um, there may be

281
00:15:43,920 --> 00:15:47,640
Speaker 1: a certain additional awareness. I also think, I mean, surveillance

282
00:15:47,680 --> 00:15:50,600
Speaker 1: between great powers is not new. There's by efforts that

283
00:15:50,640 --> 00:15:54,080
Speaker 1: go on all the time. Nobody should be you know,

284
00:15:54,160 --> 00:15:56,800
Speaker 1: there's no no fainting couches needed for any of that.

285
00:15:57,040 --> 00:16:01,440
Speaker 1: But um, I think of this vehicular type of surveillance,

286
00:16:01,480 --> 00:16:04,240
Speaker 1: I think there's been a large increase in awareness and

287
00:16:04,240 --> 00:16:06,040
Speaker 1: also think that there's you know, as I mentioned that

288
00:16:06,080 --> 00:16:09,480
Speaker 1: there's been a large increase in certainty about what to

289
00:16:09,600 --> 00:16:13,479
Speaker 1: do about it when it comes, as well as uh,

290
00:16:13,560 --> 00:16:18,200
Speaker 1: you know, reactions that this is perhaps, uh not something

291
00:16:18,240 --> 00:16:20,360
Speaker 1: that people are willing to put up with. You see,

292
00:16:20,440 --> 00:16:23,360
Speaker 1: you see threats of sanctions, You see other sorts of

293
00:16:24,000 --> 00:16:28,000
Speaker 1: ties that get affected by this. So it's got a

294
00:16:28,040 --> 00:16:30,920
Speaker 1: little bit of a if you'll forgive the horrible pun.

295
00:16:31,320 --> 00:16:33,840
Speaker 1: These balloons get down, get shot down, and they make

296
00:16:34,160 --> 00:16:37,800
Speaker 1: a much bigger splash than just the than just the

297
00:16:37,880 --> 00:16:41,640
Speaker 1: question of whether or not you take them out. You're
