GOP Rep. Greene seeks probe on Trump ignorance of previous spy balloons

Trump has excoriated Biden for allowing the most recent spy balloon to traverse the United States for several days before shooting it down off the coast of South Carolina.

Georgia Republican Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene on Monday called for an investigation into former President Donald Trump's ignorance of prior aerial incursions by Chinese spy balloons that the Biden administration alleges occurred during his time in office.

Greene indicated that the president would have likely been aware of such events had they transpired and suggested his professed ignorance of such balloon activities may indicate that the Pentagon withheld security information from the commander-in-chief.

"If it's true the Pentagon purposely did NOT tell President Trump of Chinese Spy Balloons during his administration then we had a serious breach in command during the Trump admin," she tweeted. "The POTUS is the Commander in Chief. We must investigate and hold accountable those who broke rank."

Greene's position on the House Oversight Committee, which is currently conducting multiple investigations into the Biden administration under the leadership of Kentucky GOP Rep. James Comer, may position her well to make such a probe a reality.

Former Trump administration officials, including Secretary of Defense Mark Esper, former National Security Adviser John Bolton, and former Director of National Intelligence John Ratcliffe, have all denied claims that Chinese air balloons entered U.S. airspace during the Trump administration.

The Biden administration has since offered to brief the former Trump officials and contended that the incursions were not discovered until after Trump had departed the White House.

Trump himself, and much of the general public, has excoriated Biden for allowing the most recent spy balloon to traverse the United States for several days before shooting it down off the coast of South Carolina.

“There May Be Ethical and, in Some Cases Legal Misconduct by Every Single Member of the 2018 LA County Board of Supervisors” – Corruption Expert

With the latest corruption reported in LA it looks like there may be ethical and in some cases legal misconduct by every single member of the 2018 LA County Board of Supervisors.

There’s a lot of corruption in LA. and it seems to be getting worse. We’re seeing massive corruption in the Biden Administration and in the DOJ. It’s no surprise that it’s happening everywhere.

Wherever you have Democrats in power you have massive corruption. L.A. is now the case in point.

This beautiful and historic city is now being led by corrupt politicians.

Cece Woods at The Current Report shares:

A who’s who in LA politics accepted donations from former power-player attorney and Democratic donor Tom Girardi, 83, who was indicted Wednesday on federal charges.

The once-celebrated litigator known for the case that led to a $333 million settlement portrayed in the movie “Erin Brockovich” was charged Wednesday along with his son in law David Lira and the former COO of Girardi’s law firm, Christopher Kamon.

All three were charged with eight counts of wire fraud which included more than $3 million in settlement funds designated for relatives who were killed in an Indonesian plane crash. In total, the feds say Gerardi and his firm stole more than $18 million from clients.

Official records show Girardi, his relatives and employees gave at least $7.5 million in political contributions to candidates and political committees. Most of that money went to Democrats, including President Joe Biden, for whom Girardi also hosted a ritzy fundraiser at the prestigious Jonathan Club during the 2020 presidential cycle.

Woods continues:

Public corruption expert and CEO of the A-team Advocacy Group who has been conducting a 5-year investigation related to public corruption by LA County government officials made this statement about the Girardi indictments:

“My concern is that we know Mark Ridley Thomas has been indicted on Federal Bribery Charges, Hilda Solis is/was under investigation by the FBI (according to Kevin De Leon in the now infamous leaked LA City Council recordings) and now it looks like current Supervisors Barger and Hahn may have received dirty money from Tom Girardi. For those unfamiliar with LA County Government, it looks to me like there may be ethical and in some cases legal misconduct by every single member of the 2018 LA County Board of Supervisors. Both Hahn and Barger are up for reelection in 2024 and I believe that this will haunt them.”
