‘They Were Caught Lying’: Former Trump Admin Officials React To Kirby’s Chinese Balloon Pronouncement

The Biden administration is offering to brief former Trump officials on Chinese balloons because Biden officials were “caught lying” and are “scrambling” about their own Chinese spy balloon incident, former acting Director of National Intelligence (DNI) Richard Grenell told the Daily Caller.

“Every Trump national security official on the record over the last several days saying this isn’t true,” Grenell added, referring to the Biden administration’s claim that three Chinese balloons had crossed into U.S. airspace during the Trump era.

Former President Donald Trump, as well as a number of former national security officials including John Bolton, Robert O’Brien and John Radcliffe, refuted the Biden administration’s claim about the balloons during Trump’s tenure.
