  1. Sen Rubio said in 2018

    "The USAF have ways to disable the optics and jam the communications from these balloons"

    When people are being hypocrites call them out
    Florida must be proud. A moron for governor and a moron senator

  2. China is preparing for war.

  3. Aaaah little Marco 😂

  4. 7:07 is why you're here. Enjoy the stupid look on Rubio's face when he's told the truth about the idiotic Trump regime's failure to handle the previous three Chinese spy balloons that floated unchallenged over US territory.

  5. Little Marco looked like he stepped in a pile of 🐕 sh*t after that last comment. The level of "HYPOCRISY" coming from The GQP is nauseating.

  6. The persecution mania of a degenerate US society in its final stage. China should now shoot down US spy satellites over China. It's a proportionate reaction.

  7. So… what you're saying Marc is… We were damned if we do damned if we don't??

  8. Donnie Dump is a weak wuss.
    Three spyballs overhead and a coverup.

  9. Spy balloons that can be observed by the naked eye are extremely unusual. What could this flight path actually observe? We are not getting all the relevant information. The Chinese government controls many of the "big fish" on Wall Street, therefore, many in Congress, both red and blue. We will see where all of this goes.

  10. I'm designing here working at my desk listening to this, and I am hearing nonsense after complete nonsense. So, I turned around to see who was taking like this, and sure enough, It's Rubio.. Out of all the people, why are you interviewing him? How dare he criticize our country on a high platform like this? Yes, he was bringing down our homeland and putting ideas in the brains of people who don't need to be listening to this…

  11. Your interviewer claimed it happened 3 times under the previous president. Are you sure this is true and if it did was he or his senior officials made aware of this fact?

  12. 🤣at 7:04 Karl deflates Rubio's balloon.

  13. FBI: Sir, that balloon is just a weather data collection device, is Made in China, now flew over from China
    Biden: I don't care, shoot it down and destroy all evidence, we will keep on insist it is a spying balloon…

  14. Sorry kiddo – if you were seeking intelligence – Marco Rubio ain't it…

  15. So the Chinese knew US can't do anything about it, at the same, they also knew US will spot it and shot it down so there would be no valuable information on it. Sounds like according Rubio, the Chinese knew everything, and under all possibility, the Chinese government wins and it's all Biden's fault?

  16. As usual, liberal whack media just makes things up.

  17. Republicans will support China like always.

  18. This happened because republicans took the house.

  19. What would be the point of telling the American people sooner?

  20. Instead of missiles, they should have used bullets on the ballon. To bring it down slowly. To attempt to preserve the instruments(cameras,sensors etc)

  21. Retain the right to shut the hell up

  22. Jonathan Karl is a lying SOB. This story about balloon during Trump's administration is fake news!

  23. I see ABC News is also "peddling the lie" that this also happened on the Trump watch. Don't fall for this total bullshit lie.Think about it………..here we have a US President that is HATED ( not just disliked but HATED) by the media and yet they want you to believe this very same thing happened on Trump's watch and NOBODY knew about it and the media kept it quiet????????????? LMAO………..are you out of your freaking minds ABC if you are expecting the American people to believe this total bullshit and somehow some way it happened on Trump['s watch and he CONVINCED every single media outlet to keep the story QUIET??????????????? You are "delusional" if you really expect Americans to believe this same thing happened on Trump's watch. It would have been splattered onto every TV and radio and print news media the moment it happened if this were remotely true. The media would have used a sensational story like this to tun trump completely out of town HAD that been the case. It's totally a made up LIE by ABC News and any other new media if they say this happened under Trump's watch too. How come NOBODY ever (not even once) brought it up under the Trump administration if it were REMOTELY TRUE??? ABC NEWS is a sickening and disgusting media for putting this garbage out. But, they are ONLY ONE in a long long list of other disgusting media outlets.

  24. For a guy being on the Intelligent Committee, Marco Rubio is not ver intelligent. I could never understand why he is on that Committee.

  25. For someone collecting open source information, Sen. Rubio told alot information.

  26. Wow Marco Rubio is a human turd, isn't he?

  27. Marco! What rock have you been hiding under man???

  28. Loved the last minute oh by the way moment. This happened 3 times under the last administration. Rubio and that Nazi woman marjorie taylor need to check their facts first before they open their mouths.

  29. Nothing like having a Moron on the intelligence committee.

  30. Does he really think China or Russia doesn't know about missile silos we've had in place for more than 50 years?

  31. I do not get why that last piece of information was left till the very end without an opportunity for Rubio to conjure another frivolous explanation.

  32. 😂😂😂 once again they attack Biden at every chance they can while learning and knowing Trump was worse. Does any Republican have the balls to point out Trump paid taxes to China but not to his own country? Do any have the balls to point out Trump didn’t do a thing when 3 spy balloons flew over the country while he was in office and kept it as quiet as he did about COVID’s seriousness? Do any of them have the balls to actually put the ppl and country first over traitors? NOPE…..

  33. Why did we shoot it down? Why dont we force the balloon to land on the ground and we can examine what 's inside the balloon!

  34. What ? You're saying Donnie knew of a potential problem and didn't tell the American people. No. I'm glad he didn't try to do that with covid…. oh wait. That's just what he did

  35. Lets be clear, every country spies.

    Lets be super clear, only american capitalism’s impunity due to free market allows selling secrets, technology, and data packets … thus we give them more than anybody else.

    Why? We have been presented a new half trillion dollar fighter jet we must try.

  36. It happened 3 times under Trump??
    Lol the madness
