for a closer look at Biden's decision-making regarding
the balloon, which traveled across the entire U.S.
before being shot down.

the U.S. gained a significant amount of intelligence
on the craft by allowing it to cross the continent.

largely revolve around the Biden administration's
delay in notifying the public regarding the issue.
