Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) wants to bring a prop to this year’s State of the Union address.

In a video posted to Twitter just a few hours before remarks from President Joe Biden, Greene can be seen walking through a House of Representatives office building with a large, white balloon.

“It’s just an innocent balloon… #SOTU,” Greene wrote.

The balloon is likely a nod to the recently downed Chinese spy balloon, also large and white, and the air of mystery around the situation.

“I just spoke with our GREAT America First President Trump,” Greene tweeted on Feb. 4. “He would have never allowed China to fly a spy balloon over our country and our military bases and assets. Pres Trump would have shot it down before it entered the US. And so would I.”

However, officials indicated that similar balloons had entered U.S. airspace at least three times during the Trump administration.

Upon learning this, Greene called for an investigation into why Trump was not informed of the balloons.

“If it’s true the Pentagon purposely did NOT tell President Trump of Chinese Spy Balloons during his administration then we had a serious breach in command during the Trump admin,” Greene tweeted. “The POTUS is the Commander in Chief. We must investigate and hold accountable those who broke rank.”

In an apparent slight to Greene, Rep. Lauren Boebert (R-CO) reportedly said Tuesday, “Well, I won’t be bringing a white helium balloon, if that’s what you’re asking,” in reference to possible State of the Union protests or gestures.
