Joe Biden allowed a Chinese spy balloon to fly across the country from Montana to the Atlantic Ocean.
Biden humiliated America on the global stage and compromised the country’s national security.
And one secret that Biden hid about the Chinese spy balloon just surfaced that has all hell breaking loose.
On February 3, residents in Montana were stunned to see a Communist Chinese spy balloon floating over their homes.
But the Biden administration was not surprised by the appearance of the spy balloon.
According to reports, on January 28, government officials detected the Communist Chinese spy balloon.
However, the Biden administration hid this information from the public in hopes of keeping Secretary of State Anthony Blinken’s trip to China on schedule.
The New York Post reports:
Team Biden became aware of the balloon on Jan. 28, Bloomberg reported, when it was spotted over Alaska.
The US military tracked it as it flew into Canadian airspace, then re-entered American skies on Tuesday. The next day, Biden received a detailed briefing on the balloon and its course, attended by Secretary of Defense Lloyd Austin and Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff Mark Milley.
Sources told Bloomberg that Milley and Austin argued against shooting the craft down due to the danger its debris could pose to the public. Biden initially wanted it destroyed, but acquiesced, according to the report.
But the president also chose to conceal the crisis from the American public. Instead, his administration sought an explanation from the Chinese embassy in Washington — while making the finishing touches on plans for Blinken’s diplomatic visit to China on Sunday.
On its journey across the United States, the Chinese spy balloon gathered intelligence by flying over Whiteman Air Force Base in Missouri, where America’s stealth bomber is housed.
It also gathered intelligence in Montana on the nuclear silos that house America’s Minuteman Intercontinental Ballistic Missiles.
Republicans are demanding accountability and investigations into why Joe Biden allowed the Chinese to spy on and gather sensitive information on America’s military technology.
The Chinese spy balloon was in US airspace for a week. It hovered over nuclear silos and Air Force Bases. In addition to intel gathering China was testing Biden on response time, decision making & he failed miserably
Full investigation needed. The American people deserve answers

Joe Biden claims the balloon was too high and that there was no safe place to shoot it down until it reached the Atlantic Ocean.
But Joe Biden won’t be able to hide behind those lies much longer with the GOP promising to investigate the matter.
