GOP rep warns Biden admin cutting defense budget as China reportedly tests terrifying new weapon. The Democrats confirmed yesterday they did not see this missile, that it was traveling so FAST. Rep. Mike Gallagher, R-Wis., slammed the Biden administration, saying, "This should be our Sputnik moment" after China reportedly tested a hypersonic missile with nuclear capabilities. Secretary Austin and the Biden administration are trying to cut defense. They're trying to cut our conventional capability." WHITE HOUSE MUM ON REPORTS OF CHINA TESTING NUCLEAR MISSILE, SAYS ADMIN WELCOMES ‘STIFF COMPETITION’ ???????? Over the weekend, reports surfaced suggesting China tested a hypersonic missile back in August, an announcement that has remained largely unaddressed by the Biden White House. The announcement allegedly surprised U.S. officials despite consistent warnings Beijing is reportedly in the process of building around 100 nuclear missile silos. "You have a rocket carrying a hypersonic glide vehicle that flew into low orbit space before landing," Gallagher explained. "What makes that so dangerous is not only the speed at which these missiles travel, but the fact that they can maneuver midflight. The missile launched in August and circled the globe before speeding towards its target, which it missed by about two-dozen miles according to three individuals briefed on the intelligence. Two of those individuals said the test showed how far China has progressed on hypersonic weaponry – farther that U.S. officials realized. ????? WTF?! U.S. military officials in recent months have warned about China’s growing nuclear capabilities, particularly after the release of satellite imagery that showed it was building over 100 intercontinental missile silos. Two sources familiar with the recent test noted that the weapon could, in theory, fly via the South Pole instead of the more heavily monitored North Pole route. One major concern is that China is not currently tied to any arms-control deals and has yet to properly engage in talks with the U.S. The Pentagon did not comment on the specific test, but did acknowledge that China is a top priority. Kind of late now. This administration is going to cause World War 3!
