Montana Sen. Steve Daines believes the Biden administration is 'more interested in covering up the truth' than answering questions regarding the infamous Chinese spy balloon.
from Montana Republican Sen. Steve Daines, who says the administration appears"more interested in covering up the truth."in early February, traversing nearly the entire continental U.S. before the Biden administration decided to shoot down the spy craft.
Daines told Fox News Digital that even briefings with intelligence officials left him with more questions than answers. On Feb. 9, Daines posed 10 questions for the Biden administration, including why the balloon was allowed to enter U.S. airspace, how close it got to Montana's Malmstrom Air Force Base and missile silos, and what other sensitive national security and military sites it flew over – all of which remain unanswered.
"The Pentagon's response to my questions regarding the Chinese spy balloon fiasco shows the administration is more interested in covering up the truth and hoping it goes away than leveling with the American people, admitting where mistakes were made and working to ensure it never happens again," Daines told Fox News Digital.
