Yeah. Probably went like this:

SULLIVAN: Look, if you want information about our secret, secure, or military facilities, you don't need to send a damned balloon over where everyone can see it and get worked up into a lather over it. Just ask what you need to know, include a million dollars US for the Big Guy, and we can give you what you need tout de suite.

Its only a guess, but I believe China (correctly) sees Sullivan and Blinken as corrupt Biden lackeys, ideologues and smarmy political whores who have climbed the greasy pole of woke/DNC politics.

On the other hand, they may view Burns, who has been a career diplomat and is now head of America’s premier intelligence agency (and the real power in the USA) as a more serious figure.

More secrets that should not be secret.

I guess we didn’t know a balloon was over our head?

Many of these “secrets” are merely so they can make deals the public would reject (political deals), hide failure, criminal activity, or moral turpitude. It’s so that these bureaucrats can save face or do some political drug deal, using the red “secret” stamp to CYA from public or legal scrutiny.

There needs to be more transparency in government.

Since when does the CIA get directly involved in overt foreign policy? It’s obvious that they have too much time on their hands. When that occurs, they are simply wasting tax dollars. Cut the CIA budget by 75% and Americans will be safer and freer.

Burns went to Beijing to meet with his Chinese counterparts “to emphasize the importance of maintaining open lines of communication and intelligence channels,”

Maybe he really went there to pick up 'the big guys' cut of the action...There's too much heat on Biden to take large sums of cash and try to launder them. Besides, the CIA can use their 'kickbacks' from this deed - Biden keeps his payoffs word.
