Rep. Mike Turner criticizes the Biden administration over its timing in taking down the Chinese surveillance balloon.
“The president taking it down over the Atlantic is sort of like tackling the quarterback after the game is over,” Turner said in an interview on NBC News’ “Meet the Press.” “This should never have been allowed to enter the United States and it never should have been allowed to complete its mission.”told reporters that he made the order to the Pentagon after he was briefed Wednesday.
“Allowing China to do a similar act before and clearly in this one not seeing the urgency of what was unfolding,” Turner said, without going into details on the previous act. He also said there was no attempt to notify Congress or the so-called Gang of Eight, a bipartisan group of leaders who are given classified briefings.
“To create another standard for Biden when Trump, it seems, allowed this to go over the United States is just a bit hypocritical,” Booker said. In asaid that suspected surveillance balloons from China briefly transited the continental U.S. “at least three times” during the Trump administration, citing a senior defense official.
The Federal Aviation Administration temporarily grounded flights in three airports in North and South Carolina on Saturday to support the Department of Defense in its effort. Buttigieg noted that the U.S. has “the most complicated national airspace in the world” and the balloon itself was “larger than a bus,” with a debris field that stretched “about 7 miles” after it was shot down.
