Newt Gingrich | Fox News Channel's The Ingraham Angle | Feb 15 2023

NEWT:

Well, I mean the first question is if the Joe Biden team in both the University of Pennsylvania which got over $62 million from the Chinese communists and the university of Delaware which at least $26 million from the Chinese communist with people like secretary of state Blinken being paid $1 million a year to run the Penn Biden center is that Chinese communist money? Truth is we don't know because both of the universities in violation of U.S. law do not report in their books are not open and you cannot follow the money but there is a deeper thing here. This is the most dishonest the administration in American history and we now have following Afghanistan a perfect case study in why we need to totally overhaul the Pentagon. I do not believe for one minute anything they say anymore. The fact that they are just so incompetent, remember we weren't even told about this balloon over Montana until a Montana newspaper published a photograph of it. If they had never published a photograph, we might never have known about the balloon. Now we are being told, oh, no, this was not a surprise, we followed all the way from the island. I do not believe that for a second or if it's true, then the level of incompetence inside the Pentagon are even more staggering than you can imagine. Because nobody understood whatever somebody understood. Now we have three more devices, and you have the of the secretary of defense saying truth is we don't have any idea what they are, because they haven't even figured out a model that says only bring them down if you can capture the material. The idea that we are shooting these things out of the sky and saying oh, I wonder what that was great and then they wonder why people worry about aliens. By the way just a newsletter called aliens among us just making the point you actually have a federal department affirmative defense that's assigned to look at aliens they look at alien objects and the whole thing is just so weird. It's no wonder that no American trust the government, because it either lies, is utterly confused, or stunningly ignorant. You could choose which of the three boxes you like more.

NEWT:

But Laura, why would you believe anything he says? I mean we will told that he wasn't told until Wednesday of last week that the balloon existed and that he made the decision to shoot it down the defense department rejected his decision so he went from being commander in chief to being suggester in chief and then they finally decided to shoot it down only after it crossed the entire country and ended up. Think about that, if there's any way true that we knew from the time it left Hamon island what was doing why wasn't it shot down over Alaska? And by the way, what are these other three devices have now been shot down and why are we suddenly shooting things down? If you go back and look the historic record, how many of these things are there out there? That we were never told about? I think the average American has every right to say the system is totally out of control, it is suddenly dishonest and it's incompetence rivals it’s dishonesty.
