American Republicans are breathing easier after the Great Chinese Spy Balloon Crisis that they seemed to believe threatened their very lives. The US military safely shot down the balloon and will study its contents, with the Defense Department suggesting the U.S. gained more from the incident than China did.

New leaked audio confirms that Wisconsin Republicans knew that Donald Trump lost the 2020 election and chose to launch a disinformation campaign to deceive the public with phony fraud claims.
