The Chinese spy balloon that Joe Biden allowed to pass across the continental US in 2023 was loaded with US technology.
This latest discovery highlights the failure of US technology to be used by the Chinese for military use.

In January 2023, the Biden administration knew about the Chinese spy balloon traversing across the continental United States, from Alaska to the Carolinas, but sought to conceal this from the American public.
A newspaper photographer first spotted the spy balloon over Montana.
The Chinese spy balloon first entered US airspace over Alaska in late January and then crossed into the continental US over Montana.
Joe Biden and Mark Milley knew the surveillance balloon was over the US, yet Biden chose to stand down, say nothing, and allow the Chinese to collect information on US military bases.
The balloon soared over nuclear silos and military installations across the US with Joe Biden’s full approval.
The balloon was shot down over the Atlantic just off the coast of the Carolinas days later after it completed its path over US military bases.
According to the Pentagon, the spy balloon carried explosives to self-detonate, was 200 feet tall, and weighed thousands of pounds.
The Biden Administration knew about the spy balloon but sought to conceal it from the American public.
The Biden regime did not even notify the Gang of Eight Congressional leaders about the security breach by the Communist Chinese.
Retired General Mark Milley knew about the Chinese balloon but followed the lead of the Biden regime and kept it from the public.
NBC reported:
On a Friday evening last January, Gen. Glen VanHerck, the Air Force commander in charge of defending American airspace from intrusion, called President Joe Biden’s top military adviser, Gen. Mark Milley.
U.S. intelligence officials had just notified the general that for roughly 10 days they had been tracking a mysterious — and enormous — object flying over the Asia-Pacific, VanHerck told Milley. The object had crossed into U.S. airspace over Alaska and VanHerck said he planned to dispatch military jets to fly alongside it and attempt to assess what it was.
The previously unreported Jan. 27 phone call between Milley, the chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, and VanHerck, the head of the North American Aerospace Defense Command, set off an eight-day scramble inside the Biden administration to respond to a Chinese spy balloon the size of three school buses floating over the U.S.
The spy balloon exposed an increasingly brazen China’s competitive advances miles above the Earth and brought the most critical relationship in the world to one of its lowest points in recent history…
…Administration officials at first hoped to conceal the balloon’s existence from the public, and from Congress, according to multiple former and current administration and congressional officials.
“Before it was spotted publicly, there was the intention to study it and let it pass over and not ever tell anyone about it,” said a former senior U.S. official briefed on the balloon incident.
Mark Milley was granted a pardon by Joe Biden before President Trump moved in the White House.
Now we know that it was worse than we thought. US technology was used by the Chinese to spy on US military installations.
Joe Biden ignored this assault by the Chinese on our country.
