I think the effort to hide the balloon pass over and what it was here for strengthens the idea that the CCP is already taking control of 'our country.' These military-age Chinese males pouring across the borders is another red light. I believe that Mitch McConnell purposely yielded control of the Senate because of his wife's global shipping business - heavily supported by the CCP. It is emerging that the Georgia 2020 election was a scam, supported by the Governor and the Sec of State, both reputedly with a Chinese tether on them.
Prez Donald Trump was restructuring Chinese advantages over the American economy with tariffs and other regulatory measures; China's rise to a world power was almost totally financed by advantages taken over the U.S. Who benefited the most by Trump's loss of the WH in 2020? Obviously the Chinese.
Beyond a shadow of doubt China presently influences some of America's policy choices - domestically, financially and globally. We know from the Hong Kong experience that such a grip by China only tightens more and more until local sovereignty evaporates and China sits on top of it all. Add to that China buying up large tracts of American land, some tactically close to covert U.S. military resources.
