Americans are outraged to learn that a suspected Chinese spy balloon has been hovering over the northern United States for several days. The U.S. military is monitoring the balloon, but no action has been taken to shoot it down or protect against possible sensitive data being collected.
President Joe Biden and his administration have failed to take decisive action, instead choosing to monitor the situation rather than protect America’s national security interests. This decision flies in the face of intelligence that suggests this balloon is part of an ongoing effort by China to collect sensitive information about our nation.
Does this inaction further prove that President Biden is not serious about defending American interests from foreign threats like China, Russia, and Iran? It also calls into question his commitment to keeping Americans safe from hostile foreign powers who seek to do us harm.
The fact that this balloon could float above the United States for as long as it did without any response shows how weak and unprepared President Biden’s administration is when dealing with potential threats from abroad. Had President Trump still been in office, he would have taken swift action against this balloon and ensured our safety was protected at all costs.
It’s time for President Joe Biden and his team of advisors to realize they cannot just sit back while hostile nations attempt espionage on US soil. We must demand stronger leadership from Washington to ensure our national security will be safeguarded against all foreign and domestic enemies.
