Fourth U.S. Military shoot down of an unidentified object in a week



The U.S. military shot down another high-altitude, unidentified object, now over Lake Huron. The Pentagon said in a statement that the object “flew in proximity to sensitive Department of Defense sites” and assessed it was “a safety flight hazard and a threat due to its potential surveillance capabilities.”

  1. They shot down a home made drone.

  2. Distracting us that’s all

  3. Let's hope this is not like the time Biden said it was a 'righteous strike' for 12 months when he knew he had killed 11 aid workers including 7 children and tried to hide it for 12 months until mounting evidence forced him to come out.

  4. Trying to distract from Ohio !! The chemical spill

  5. What the heck is going on ?!

  6. Pictures or it didn't happen

  7. This all feels orchestrated..like jan.6th CAPITOL hoax..show me these Aliens?

  8. Cylindrical shape, hexagonal? No wings, no balloon? How was it flying? This is not journalism. this is knee jerk to be the first with the story.

  9. why do the media is asking too much.. this events are classified, dont let know the enemy ,how good is american intelligence, THE USA WAS IN MORE DANGER WITH TRAITOR TRUMP IN THE WHITE HOUSE……………….,NOW WE ARE WELL PROTECTED

  10. Funny how they are all over water and there is never any evidence for the American people to do anything other than speculate and if you think it's aliens you should see a doctor and have your rights removed.

  11. Shout out to Joe Biden for authorizing military action 💯🤘🏻🔥on these foreign objects… Protecting our nation's skies and citizens…..🇺🇸❤️

  12. The future trolling us..They book tours in the future to travel back in time with a fly over tour.

  13. So now we call it “illegal” to cross our borders? Interesting.

  14. America has to be the center of attention soon the joke will be on you!

  15. The only thing making me scared is the amount of mass surveillance to the point where they can allegedly see a small object flying in the sky

  16. Thank you for a proper subject line that doesn't make it sound like they have downed a dozen objects by now.

  17. I was just thinking to myself only a few days ago that the only strategy to invade the U.S. is through Canada via the Great Lakes/land borders. Coming in from the south will not work.

  18. the northern "alien invasion" distracting from the southern alien invasion.

  19. Where are the Grey's?

  20. Hey y'all you have to find out who's putting people's life in danger in passenger air traffic fly zones this is unbelievable and very very very wrong shameful 😑

  21. Fake news!! Dont be distracted by fake ufo bs because Jeffrey Esptein list came out today!! Go look at the list!! Wake the f up!

  22. Why are people in government so ugly?

  23. All are balloons even with different shapes to test the American radars. Do you remember Nimitz California in 2004? The so called tic-tac shape ufo was an American super plasma hot balloon to simulate the under developing Russian hypersonic missiles. When that unfortunate US Nimitz pilot (due to a fault of his deck liaison officer) took off his F18 fighter to investigate the scene he reported some ufo (the secret test American balloon). Rapidly your CIA reared a campaign saying it was a flying saucer from the outer space (the "tic-tac" ufo).
    Well. In summary. I am a non American baby boomer from abroad. I lived in a period when there was no NORAD, no Cheyenne Mountain, when NSA was a really secretive agency. Instead there were the so called "Washington line", "Pine line" and "high Canada" lines of radar domes before NORAD (and NORAD surveillance satellites).
    If there were Russians coming from the East there were lots of interceptor missiles on the California shores ready to fire. If the Russians would come from Alaska, well, there was nothing to do except retaliate with nukes on board of the B52 squadrons. It was a game of pure adrenaline but remember that we (boomers) were allied during the second World war and there was respect (and I would say some mutual admiration) among all of us including communists and liberals or Republicans. We boomers didn't destroy the world. So praise your boomers all over the world including in Russia. Now Putin is considered a "bad guy" but he is the last Russian boomer… All we would think while facing this terrible perspective of a future nuclear militarized world without those old allies as leaderships (who came to be adversaries during the cold war) is bleak. Remember that old allies who came to be only adversaries (not true enemies) still is a safe international situation. But can you imagine a future without those old boomer leadership? Now they are sending balloons against the American territory. It is a clear message. They are saying "we can easily reach your territory as you reach ours" with himars, M77, M1 Abrahams and disguised harpoons or F16 maybe. Your own US territory is not safe. This is the message. Now I ask Americans. What the Western diplomacy is doing to stop this war in Ukraine?
    Brasil Brasil Brasil Brasil

  24. Why not just shoot small holes in them and let them decent in a control rate for tracking and retrieval.

  25. Between November 1944 and April 1945, the Japanese Army launched about 9,300 balloons from sites on Honshu, of which about 300 were found or observed in the U.S. and Canada, with some in Mexico. On May 5, 1945, Rev. Archie Mitchell, his pregnant wife, Elsie, and five children from Mitchell's congregation were heading for a picnic at Gearhart Mountain near Bly, Oregon. As Mitchell went to find a parking spot, the children came across a strange metal contraption attached to a large balloon. Suddenly, the contraption exploded, killing all five children and Elsie. They were the first and only victims of a Japanese Fu-Go balloon bomb, and the only Americans killed by enemy action in the continental US during the war.

  26. These "unidentified" objects are from an obviously "identified" country — CHINA, the most evil country on Earth!

  27. Rumor has it, one of those objects shot down was Nancy Pelosi riding on her broomstick.

  28. Anything in our air space is a threat . maybe they are dumping poisonous gas.on all of us . we Don t know . they say they Don t know . is int that there job s . to know and not play around with our live s .

  29. US shoots down 4 UFO's but they couId not put a ninja jet in the air
