Rep. Jim Himes, D-Conn., says he has 'real concerns' about Biden administration's transparency on flying objects

[ABC] Rep. Jim Himes, D-Conn., ranking member of the House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence, said Sunday that he has "real concerns" about the Biden administration's transparency on the unidentified objects that have been shot down in recent days.

In an interview on NBC News’ "Meet the Press" Sunday, Himes, who is part of the "Gang of Eight," the top leaders of congressional intelligence committees, said those lawmakers received a "very extensive briefing" on the Chinese spy balloon that was shot down over water last week.

Himes expressed concern that the administration has been less forthcoming about the unidentified objects shot down over Alaskan and Canadian airspaces on Friday and Saturday, respectively, though he acknowledged that information may be scarce.

"Part of the problem is that the second and the third objects were shot down in very remote areas. So my guess is that there's just not a lot of information out there yet to share," he said.

"The one thing I see troubling ... is massive speculation about alien invasions and additional Chinese or Russian action," Himes said, adding that the "absence of information" will make people anxious.

"So I do hope the administration has a lot more information for all of us on what’s going on," Himes said.

Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer, D-N.Y., said Sunday that the U.S. believes the unidentified objects shot down over Alaskan and Canadian airspaces were balloons smaller than the size of the Chinese spy balloon shot down Feb. 4.

Schumer said in an interview on ABC's "This Week" that he was briefed Saturday night by National Security Adviser Jake Sullivan hours after the unidentified object in Canadian airspace was downed. Asked if the two objects that were shot down in recent days were balloons, Schumer said, "They believe they were, yes, but much smaller than the first one."
