Biden administration officials secretly discussed a Chinese spy balloon with Beijing while allowing the surveillance device to float across America’s heartland, collecting sensitive military data. These clandestine talks occurred before the public spotted the massive balloon, showing the administration prioritized relations with China over national security and transparency with American citizens.

Biden’s Secret China Communications Exposed

Reports indicate that Biden administration State Department officials engaged in private conversations with Beijing regarding the Chinese spy balloon that entered U.S. airspace in early 2023. These talks allegedly centered around managing the potential fallout should Americans discover the foreign surveillance device traversing over sensitive military installations.

The spy balloon entered U.S. airspace over Alaska on January 28, 2023. Still, the administration chose not to inform the public or the Gang of Eight Congressional leaders about this serious security breach. Instead, President Biden and General Mark Milley allowed the 200-foot tall, explosive-laden device to continue its journey across American territory, collecting intelligence on nuclear silos and other critical defense infrastructure.

Public Discovery Forced Biden’s Hand

The administration’s plan to keep the balloon secret unraveled when a newspaper photographer spotted the massive surveillance device floating over Montana. This unexpected public discovery forced officials to acknowledge the balloon’s existence, though they had already permitted it to travel thousands of miles through American airspace.

According to internal State Department documents, Secretary of State Tony Blinken expressed concern that public knowledge of the balloon would have “profound implications for our relationship” with China. The administration appeared more worried about maintaining smooth relations with Beijing than protecting American sovereignty and the security information the foreign surveillance equipment collected.

Military Technology Compromised

Pentagon reports revealed the balloon carried sophisticated surveillance equipment and explosives for self-destruction, weighing thousands of pounds. The Chinese surveillance device reportedly utilized American parts and internet connectivity to gather intelligence on U.S. military sites, transmitting sensitive data back to China while the administration remained silent.

“Biden administration State Department officials held private talks with Beijing counterparts about the Chinese spy balloon that intercepted U.S. airspace in 2023, and discussed the implications the balloon’s publicity would have on the relationship between the U.S. and China, according to Trump administration officials.”

The balloon was finally shot down over the Atlantic Ocean near the Carolinas on February 4, 2023, nearly a week after it was first identified in American airspace. This delayed response allowed the Chinese government to collect valuable intelligence on American military capabilities and communications systems, potentially compromising national security for years to come.
