IOWA SENATOR CHUCK GRASSLEY IS RENEWING HIS CALL FOR THE BIDEN ADMINISTRATION TO DISCLOSE ALL IT KNOWS ABOUT THE HIGH-ALTITUDE CHINESE BALLOON THAT FLEW ACROSS THE U-S IN FEBRUARY.
N-B-C REPORTED MONDAY THAT THE SPY BALLOON — WHICH CHINA CLAIMED WAS A WEATHER BALLOON BLOWN OFF COURSE — WAS ABLE TO GATHER INTELLIGENCE FROM SEVERAL U-S MILITARY SITES AND TRANSMIT IT BACK TO BEIJING IN REAL TIME.
