Threats: The Chinese spy balloon raised new questions about threats to the homeland.
– Heritage’s Jim Carafano says that the balloon fiasco is proof of U.S. vulnerability, which is compounded by President Biden’s failure to see it. Read what Carafano, vice president of the Kathryn and Shelby Cullom Davis Institute for National Security and Foreign Policy and the E.W. Richardson fellow, has to say about it [here](http://click.heritage.org/ODI0LU1IVC0zMDQAAAGKEb8EePsJ-zgDpe555rlFkaVC9-MM3e5kdxBsjlHxxSIXbw0rtQ6vf8M5SvQVfcsJtmbGq_s=).
– Sen. Josh Hawley, R-Mo., told an audience at a Heritage event that the Chinese Communist Party is “on the march” and that the U.S. is “not, at this moment, prepared to stop it.” Read about that, and check out the protestor who interrupted his remarks, [here](http://click.heritage.org/ODI0LU1IVC0zMDQAAAGKEb8Eeb775QO5VDoCUjXAllLcY-J1b1U2hZ5t5JNAyXRyPwuemNKTKOUNHu1cT0mcBi3__vg=).
– Meanwhile, North Korea’s steadily expanding long-range missile arsenal risks overwhelming the limited ground-based interceptors defending the American homeland. Heritage senior research fellow Bruce Klingner has the story [here](http://click.heritage.org/ODI0LU1IVC0zMDQAAAGKEb8EeWi1ajNYkHSBpZOgnJsw_HJmeh-m_8zbH-AdMFZVjjxoUehLN5RlZKB6h09y7h74A8U=).

Smart move: Iowa became the third state to endorse universal school choice. It wasn’t easy.
– After rural Republican legislators thwarted Iowa Gov. Kim Reynolds’s efforts to expand school choice, she endorsed primary challengers.
– “This represents a stunning reversal,” Jason Bedrick, research fellow in the Center for Education Policy, [writes](http://click.heritage.org/ODI0LU1IVC0zMDQAAAGKEb8EebvioncNwGNj1f8wFkrlUrkbJC7WwDOuQpUjQOYcDI_vLLk0W_LSCXe_xgBsxQqraow=).

Priorities: Delano Squires, research fellow in the Richard and Helen DeVos Center for Life, Religion, and Family, has a question about the misplaced priorities of so many leaders in the black community.
– “Why do so many civil rights groups seem so interested in Planned Parenthood’s bottom line rather than rebuilding black families?” he asks. Check it out [here](http://click.heritage.org/ODI0LU1IVC0zMDQAAAGKEb8EeMbzERNO1joqgCve_qGR49yUrN1OfUzd7M9NmVFfCZMQbv4Zo3w5wUxTuphMhGmR7lA=).

Pay Up: New York Mayor Eric Adams wants the federal government to pick up the tab for immigrants flooding his sanctuary city.
