Greene's stunt, intended to draw attention to President Biden's response to the Chinese spy balloon, comes just hours before his State of the Union address.
She explained her reasoning for the stunt in an interview with the conservative news outlet Right Side Broadcasting Network, accusing Biden of not being"afraid" of balloons because he allowed"China to traverse the United States with a Chinese spy balloon" and gather intelligence from U.S. institutions.
"President Biden allowed it to happen, but also the Department of Defense and the Pentagon allowed it. We need to ask, why is our government afraid of China? Why were they afraid, to not do anything about it—why were they afraid of repercussions of what China might do if we shoot down their balloon before it entered our airspace?"
