‘Most Transparent Administration Ever’ Won’t Reveal Chinese Balloon’s Whereabouts, Americans Told To Look At Sky For More Information

If you want to know where exactly the suspected Chinese spy balloon is over the Midwest, you’re out of luck.

On Friday, Pentagon Press Secretary Brigadier Gen. Pat Ryder — of the “most transparent administration ever” as it has come to be mocked — told inquiring minds to turn their eyes towards the clouds if they want to know its location.

“Does the public not have a right to know if the balloon is over their state?” He was asked by a reporter.

“The public certainly has the ability to look up in the sky and see where the balloon is,” He answered.

Ryder said that he won’t be providing an hour-by, hour update about its whereabouts.

Lloyd Austin, Secretary of Defense, appointed Ryder as the Press Officer in August 2022.

“Pat will fill a critical role, leading our efforts to provide timely, accurate information to the media, and through the media to the American people,” Austin At the time.

Somehow, it seems doubtful that Ryder’s performance today meets the definition of providing “timely, accurate information.”

Jen Psaki, the then-White House Press Secretary, promised Biden that on day one of his administration, he would. “bring transparency and truth back to the government to share the truth, even when it’s hard to hear.”

It is now clear that it was a fabrication after more than two years.

According to reports, the White House knew about this balloon since Wednesday. According to reports, the American people discovered about the balloon only after civilians saw it in the sky and asked what it was.

It was told us that the military couldn’t shoot it down because it could land on the population below, potentially causing injury or death.

The embarrassment in international affairs is spreading to the world once again that President Joe Biden’s U.S. can be tossed about by anyone and everybody.

Ted Cruz, a Republican from Texas, criticized the president for his inept response.

“Everything about the Biden admin’s response to the Chinese spy balloon reeks of indecision and weakness. They can’t decide whether to shoot it down or not,” Cruz said. “They can’t decide whether to go to China or not.”

“China has been spying on us pervasively,” He went on. “They also commit genocide, use slave labor, and threaten us and our allies. Staggering to think a balloon changes everything for Team Biden.”

In all likelihood, it won’t change anything for Biden or much of the Washington, D.C., class benefitting from the Chinese government.
