On Friday’s “CNN Newsroom,” Rep. Mike Quigley (D-IL) stated that the Chinese spy balloon is a serious issue, but we should note that “the low orbit Chinese satellites have been there for years, they’re there all the time. I don’t want the American people to think this is something new and that all of a sudden we have a concern that we didn’t have before.” Quigley stated that Secretary of State Tony Blinken should not have canceled his trip to China over the balloon, and that “if you’re angry about something, don’t talk about it through the press, talk about it nose-to-nose and the ramifications, let them know we’re serious about matters like this.” He continued, “And I’m serious about any surveillance over the United States. Let’s put this in perspective, the low orbit Chinese satellites have been there for years, they’re there all the time. I don’t want the American people to think this is something new and that all of a sudden we have a concern that we didn’t have before. Those … [Read more...] about Dem Rep.

Dem Rep. Gallego: Migrants Are Being Sent Elsewhere Because Surge ‘Is a Burden’ on Small Tax Bases
On Friday’s broadcast of HBO’s “Real Time,” Rep. Ruben Gallego (D-AZ) stated that towns along the border do have to send asylum seekers to other cities because dealing with the surge of migrants and taking care of migrants “is a burden” on the small tax bases of these towns. Gallego said, “As a border state guy, there are two things: What’s happening right now is, if you go to these border towns, San Luis, for example, right on the border, small community, they’re trying to help out however they can. But they have a small tax base. So, when the asylum seekers come over, they’re trying to deal with that and everything that comes with it. So, when we’re sending people to other states, it is because it is a burden on these towns. And what the federal government should be doing right now, at least in the immediate future, something that Democrats and Republicans should do is we should be helping these towns deal with this. But we should also be helping Chicago to deal with it, if … [Read more...] about Dem Rep. Gallego: Migrants Are Being Sent Elsewhere Because Surge ‘Is a Burden’ on Small Tax Bases

House Homeland Security Chair Green: I Never Got Alerted About Spy Balloon by Biden Administration
On Friday’s broadcast of the Fox News Channel’s “Fox News @ Night,” House Homeland Security Committee Chairman Rep. Mark Green (R-TN) stated that he was never alerted by the Biden administration about the Chinese spy balloon. Host Trace Gallagher asked, “Are you getting any information, sir, from the Pentagon about the specifics or anything else about this balloon?” Green responded, “No. We’re getting very little and we never got a phone call. We never got alerted to this. It’s a crying shame when the Chairman of Homeland Security finds out about a Chinese spy balloon flying over the United States, it’s just — it’s really unconscionable.” Gallagher later asked, “What’s the reasoning, what’s the rationale behind not telling us more about this, giving us more information, Congressman? Did they think we wouldn’t find out about this? What’s the working theory right now about why this administration that consistently says transparency, transparency, transparency won’t give us any … [Read more...] about House Homeland Security Chair Green: I Never Got Alerted About Spy Balloon by Biden Administration
