Mark Kelly’s shady history with spy balloons.
Once again, I first broke the Mark Kelly starting a spy balloon company funded by China's TenCent in 2020.
Then I did another story on it 2023 when the spy balloon was traversing the U.S.

Now @FoxNews giving @Axios credit for breaking this story after my THREE stories from 2020 and 2023.
BUT @Axios never got to the heart of the story and mainly bought into Kelly's excuses for it.

The Axios story also never addressed this:
??The Defense Counterintelligence Security Agency (DCSA) SUSPENDED the process to grant Kelly's company clearance for U.S. defense work. I have the emails from DCSA and I'll attach to this thread.
I've included the three main stories I wrote below.

Back in 2020, The spokesperson for Kelly's balloon company lied to me that they had secured DCSA's seal of approval.

The DCSA aims to protect U.S. security assets from malign foreign influence.

Here's the three stories I broke on in reverse chronology - the latest, in 2023, and then the two stories I first broke in 2020 on the same topic.
