Senator Marco Rubio recently shut down any comparisons between the Trump administration and Biden administration over the handling of Chinese surveillance balloons. On CNN’s “State of the Union”, the Florida Republican said that there was “no comparison” between the two when it comes to the surveillance balloon incident.

The U.S. took down the spy balloon Saturday afternoon after it was spotted floating over multiple states, including Idaho and Montana. The Pentagon was tracking the balloon as it headed eastward over the Carolinas before hovering above the Atlantic Ocean. U.S. military jets were seen flying near the balloon while there were several recovery vessels in the waters below.

When asked what type of information the spy balloon may have been able to gather, Senator Rubio said that while he didn’t have a definitive answer, he did say that the larger takeaway was that the balloon sent a “clear message”.

“I think beyond just the ability to collect information, it is the ability to send a clear message, and that is that we have the ability to do this and America can’t do anything about it,” Rubio said.

The Department of Defense released a statement Thursday claiming that “instances of this kind of balloon activity have been observed previously over the past several years.” Senator Rubio made sure to clarify that the balloon flight that entered over Idaho, over Montana, over all these sensitive military installations, Air Force bases, ICBM fields, right across the middle of the country was unprecedented.

“That it flew briefly over some part of the continental U.S., that’s one thing,” Rubio continued. “But what we saw this week, this is unprecedented. This is no comparison anything that may have happened up to this point.”

It’s clear from Senator Rubio’s comments that this incident was a massive breach of security and shows how the Biden administration is not taking the Chinese threat seriously. The Biden administration should be doing more to protect America’s national security, especially when compared to the Trump administration.

Watch

It’s obvious that the Biden administration is not doing enough to protect our national security and it’s time for them to step up and start taking the Chinese threat seriously.
