The classified briefing was 'unspecific, insufficient and backward-looking', a Republican lawmaker told Fox News Digital.
The classified briefing was"unspecific, insufficient and backward-looking," failing to adequately address the Chinese spy balloon that flew across the U.S. last week, according to Issa's office.
Then, on Saturday, after the balloon continued its flight through several Midwestern and southeastern states, a U.S. fighter jet shot it down off the coast of South Carolina in the Atlantic Ocean. The unmanned surveillance aircraft had ultimately gone seven days from the time it was first detected over the Pacific Ocean to the moment it was taken down.
