Excellent. Would love to hear from the Commander in Chief on incursions into our airspace. Would be great if he answered questions, considering many people have them. Would be amazing to hear from the person we voted for who is the final decisionmaker for these decisions about national security.
Edit: Coming from a military family, and given that military action has been taken, I strongly believe the American people should be hearing from their Commander in Chief. I don’t accept John Kirby’s excuses. Joe Biden should be the person talking about military action taken against a geopolitical rival, not John Kirby.
Caveat: if you come from a military family you know what the president says in press briefs is to satisfy media, not disseminate information. For obvious reasons.
Regardless, the president DID brief about the original incident. Is what you're trying to convey that you would feel safer or more validated if there where continued briefings for the other objects?
No point for CIC to put egg on his face to the entire geopolitical landscape by saying "we shot down some US domestic commercial balloons".
