Fox Business Network host Maria Bartiromo suggested on Sunday that President Joe Biden may have intentionally allowed a Chinese spy balloon to fly over the U.S. because the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) has compromising information on him and his family.
Bartiromo made the bizarre comments in an interview with Sen. Ron Johnson (R-Wis.) as the pair discussed Hunter Biden’s business dealings in China.
“I’m wondering if, in fact, this is one of the reasons that the CCP feels empowered to be able to send spy flights across America to take pictures of our military installations and why this president allowed that spy flight to get all the way in the middle of the country, all the way up to South Carolina,” Bartiromo said.
“Your thoughts on where this is going and whether or not Joe Biden—they have so much on Joe Biden that they don’t care, they’re not expecting any repercussions. How much more can communist China do to America?” she asked Johnson.
“There are so many reasons our adversaries would be emboldened right now. Look at how President Biden is treating the military. They’re just concerned about woke politics,” Johnson responded.
“Every action the president’s taken has weakened the country I don’t know all of the ways that Joe Biden is compromised in terms of his foreign financial entanglements, but the Chinese communist government knows, Russia knows, Iran knows, and that’s why we need to get to the bottom of this,” he added.
The Chinese spy balloon was shot down by F-22s off the coast of South Carolina last weekend. Biden was advised by military leaders that the best time for the operation would be when it was over water and poses no threat to Americans on the ground.
The U.S. has taken two more unidentified objects since then, once over Alaska on Friday and another over Northern Canada on Saturday.
