President Biden defended the decision to shoot down unidentified objects following bipartisan criticism about not telling Americans more. He said there’s nothing to suggest the objects shot down were connected to China’s spy balloon program. NBC News’ Peter Alexander has more on the president’s remarks.

Great job Joe!
Productivo es que si tu necesitas lapidas las lapudas de asen con cubo
Well what else is he going to say about those balloons? He and Hunter are employed by China, if he calls them out they might fire "the big guy" and the crackhead and lose their paychecks.
First he’s a sh*t bc he doesn’t shoot them down. Now he’s a sh*t bc does. This is just Republican cr*p again!
Love how the media puppets are trying to make Old Sloppy Joe look strong. We all know he is a turd 💩 balloon 🎈 made in China.
He used a $ 400,000 missile to shoot down $12 to $100 balloons 🎈 =$1,200,000 total, not counting the one that shot down the China spy balloon or the one that missed the private balloon on the first try.
I now always turn on the captions when mumblin Joe speaks as it's hilarious to see what it says. Unidentfrfrfralojects 🤣
Biden takes credit for shooting down the spy balloon… once it was done spying and over the ocean lol oh also the new objects are not believed to be balloons… Good job Joe lol I can't wait for him to be like they weren't round, they aren't balloons 🤣
Biden doesn't need to defend himself. He did it because Republicans and their useful idiots in the media whipped up a hysterical ****storm over the balloons.
This is how the military will always see this if they get, No transponder, no reserve space, no markings, no engine, no comms… in a flight path.. post 9/11 rules say to give anything with that description some freedom.. every time.. thank you for following post 9/11 intercept protocol as you should under the rules… we should be buying the pilot a beer.
Was planning on taking the wife for a hot air balloon trip as an anniversary gift…..im thinking as long as joe is on the trigger…ill take her to dinner instead!
💪👔👞👞🇺🇸🎤🌟🌟🌟🌟💙💗.right💗😀👌
I would have shot those balloons down for half the 5 million+ dollars they spent.
May be that those Balloons were delivering Eggs
He’s such a joke and so very incompetent
Worst president in history
I'm of the opinion that president mr.biden in this situation did the right thing !!!as commander in chief of the armed forces has given the order & allowed the air force to take the balloons down because though it was in the best of interest of the country !!! & The continuation of operation of these objects proved that was justified his action !!! Because china have to respect the country's national territory !!! That have to stopped for once & for all !!! Flying objects comes in then gets out & taking photos of sensitive installations !!! Then let's find out what is all about !!! If really is a threat & how much of that is that !!!
Worst president ever
BRO LLLLMMMMFFFFFAAAAAOOOOOOO
On top of this nonsense, they dont feel the need to address this sudden string of train derailments…all with environmentally toxic chemicals. Not one green earth liberal protesting against the drinking water and air contamination. They just blame it on Republicans, wipe their hands, then go walk their pretentious dog outside of their condos. Perhaps ride their bicycles and eat vegetables because they are just too good to worry about the harm of others unless its them. This stuff is about to reach a boiling point. The pendulum will inevitably have to swing back against the wealthy at the top. Including most liberals.
He's a CLOWN….
Dear POTUS please acknowledge East Palestine OH, thanks
Seriously 😒 THE PILOTS KNOW THEY ARE NOT BALLONS, WE KNOW THAT THEY ARE NOT BALLOONS, TIME FOR DISCLOSURE!!!!
Maybe he shot the balloon thinking that it would decrease egg prices
Where's the MAGA outrage over the multiple Chinese balloons that crossed the US, unimpeded, during 45's presidency? Nowhere, that's where.
We spent a half million dollars shooting down…a hobby, recreational balloon. Great job.
This is all such a mess. People, please do not buy any of what these people are saying. We have been duped in the worse possible way. We have to push back now! Do not comply with any government mandate that goes against what we know to be ethically, medically and morally wrong.
OPEN BORDERS & OPEN AIR SPACE 👍
Republicans: Why hasn't Biden shot down the balloon yet????
Also Republicans: Why did Biden shoot down the balloon???
Wth 🤦🏻♂️ so we dispatch military resources… Fighter jets… And shoot missiles… At balloons? These people are either extremely stupid and incompetent… Or treaters to the American people for lying so much like they always do.
Ted Cruz saying "for a week JB did nothing" lol cancun
He took Jackie's advice and radio'd corn pop for the green light to strike
He a coward POS!
Ohio, not the balloon, is the real threat to American lives.
God were all fu**Ed with this dumba*s in charge .. how much did the doctor get to say he was fit for duty .. my doctor I see talks about it all the time and many other doctors say he is loosing his mind and has problems . You can see it from everyrime you even see him .. wonder where they found this back yard doctor..
On the balloons the world was watching what we did and now every country knows we will just let people spy on us and it won't be a issue .
The fake news is just spineless…. Can you imagine if trump was president these same news people would be crucifying … a pelosi Congress would be starting impeaching trump for the 15 th time… the news is just a joke
Didn’t he also say the fall of Afghanistan was a huge success?
Biden did not take it down the used took it down Biden has no balls to order it cause it was chinese
