EXCERPT:
COTTON: "What began as spy balloon has become a trial balloon testing President Biden's strength and resolve. And unfortunately, the President failed that test. That's dangerous for the American people. The President was paralyzed for an entire week by a balloon. We should have shot this balloon down over the Aleutian Islands. We should have never allowed it to transit the entire continental United States. And I think there's a lot of open questions the administration needs to answer to Congress on behalf of the American people about why they didn't. I think part of it is the President's reluctance to take any action that would be viewed as provocative or confrontational towards the Chinese communists. I would say, what's provocative and confrontational is sending spy balloon all across America.”
