Chinese balloon flew diagonally across all USA from Alaska to S. Carolina, was finally shot down over the Atlantic. Alaska and Montana are very sparsely populated; risk of falling object is minimal. So why wait 4 days? So Biden and Gen. Milley could please Chinese friends, let the balloon do its spying? Who knows?

In case you feel this is too harsh, consider: Biden family business dealings may not bear scrutiny, and China may have incriminating evidence. Gen. Milley called his Chinese counterpart, promised to let China know in advance if Trump planned to attack. This, not Jan. 6 riot, is real sedition. Did these 2 make the decision to let balloon cross the country?
