Whoa antenna that's so scawyy 😱😨😭
President Biden acts just like me. Me after I have downed an 18 and moved on to shots.
How something that is sounding so "sophisticated" can look so barbaric.. 🤣 is so ironic to me. I mean.. A blimp .. lol 😀🤓
What about the trump balloons?
Even joe biden know what he’s talking about which is rare
republican are going to complain no matter what Biden did, and does. They would rather hate Democrats than do what is right for America.
You need only look at trump getting away with his failed coup and allowing an insurrection to breach the U.S. Capitol to see proof of that.
about the only thing that China manufactured well, unlike The Cheap Plastic Junk which China is known for 😎
All talks about shooting down fear would hit someone .. Why not just hook and drag it away …that would break the balloon and done!!
And they never will find it.
So they snooped on CELL PHONES? Ya that stuff is ENCRYPTED with AES-256 g'luck with that, Mr. Chin.
ALSO THIS GIVES U.S.A. A SENSE OF WHAT DIRECTION THIS IS GOING. WHAT THE REAL PURPOSE AND INTENTIONS WAS.
I TRIED TO SEE AND MAKE SENSE OF ALL THIS WITH A OPEN MIND.
TO BE FRANKLY HONEST IT DOESN'T LOOK GOOD ON WHERE IT STOPPED FOR LONG PERIODS OF TIMES AT MILITARY FACILITIES.
MY PERSONAL OPINION
205 ILLINOIS
China lies is caught
I want to know since when China has been using that similar kind of spy balloon on World tour? …and since when the American tries to capture one intack?
The key word is "capable", let me know when it is confirmed and stop wasting my time 👎
Love how China is acting like the victim.
Duh, it's a weather balloon
Intelligence couldnt expose 1 balloon in Bidens term but they investigated 3 during President Trump's term ,and they wonder why citizens dont trust this government full of liars .
If you could shut down a country and tell everyone to stay indoors for a few months due to covid you could shut down the country and tell everyone to stay indoors for the amount of time it takes for that thing to fall out of the sky
Suddenly Intelligence can give us all kinds of information on a balloon that a civilian exposed to the country
Biden is the biggest liar. He is in with the Chinese
C'est juste un Ballon. Le reste est de la propagande occidentale. Où il est ? On n'en sait rien ! Chinois ? Rien ne permet de le dire. Espion ? Vous en êtes sûr ? Le Pentagone tremble de peur ? Ah Oui ! Les médias occidentaux sont des malades mentaux ? Ah oui ! Les télévisions menteuses occidentales sont en pleine activité ? Comme la Justice Menteuse ! It's just a Balloon. The rest is Western propaganda. Where is it ? We don't know! Chinese? There is no way to say. Spy? Are you sure? The Pentagon trembles with fear? Oh, yes! Are the Western media mentally ill? Oh, yes! Are Western lying televisions in full swing? Like Liar Justice! Es solo un globo. El resto es propaganda occidental. ¿Dónde está? ¡No sabemos! ¿Chino? No hay forma de decirlo. ¿Espía? ¿Estás seguro? ¿El Pentágono tiembla de miedo? ¡Venga, sí! ¿Están los medios de comunicación occidentales mentalmente enfermos? ¡Venga, sí! ¿Están los televisores mentirosos occidentales en pleno apogeo? ¡Como la justicia mentirosa! 它只是一个气球。剩下的就是西方的宣传了。它在哪？不知道！中国的？没有办法说。间谍？是否确定？ 五角大楼吓得浑身发抖？哦，是的！ 西方媒体有精神病吗？哦，是的！西方说谎的电视正在如火如荼地进行吗？就像说谎者正义！ – Sale petit voyous, Biden Est un brute ! Nazi Américain, Biden Est le Chef de la Guerre Froide Dans le Monde. D'un Coté Biden Transforme la Guerre en Ukraine en la Troisième Guerre Mondiale en Europe au Printemps 2023, en Poussant les Pays Européens à Affronter Directement la Russie. De l'autre côté Biden Vient de Provoque la Troisième Guerre Mondiale Sur Son Sol et en Asie, en Faisant abattre le Ballon Civil. Biden n'est pas à son Premier Coup d'Essai. Biden a déjà Fait Déplacer De Nombreux Membres du Congrès Américain à Taiwan Pour Provoquer la Chine. Dirty little thugs, Biden is a bully ! American Nazi, Biden is the leader of the Cold War in the world. On the One Hand Biden Transforms the War in Ukraine into World War III in Europe in the Spring of 2023, by Pushing European Countries to Confront Russia Directly. On the other hand, Biden just provoked World War III on his soil and in Asia, by having the civilian balloon shot down. Biden is not at his first attempt. Biden has already moved many U.S. Congressmen to Taiwan to provoke China. Dreckige kleine Schläger, Biden ist ein Tyrann! Amerikanischer Nazi, Biden ist der Führer des Kalten Krieges in der Welt. Auf der einen Seite verwandelt Biden den Krieg in der Ukraine in den Dritten Weltkrieg in Europa im Frühjahr 2023, indem er die europäischen Länder dazu drängt, Russland direkt zu konfrontieren. Auf der anderen Seite provozierte Biden gerade den Dritten Weltkrieg auf seinem Boden und in Asien, indem er den zivilen Ballon abschießen ließ. Biden ist nicht bei seinem ersten Versuch. Biden hat bereits viele US-Kongressabgeordnete nach Taiwan gebracht, um China zu provozieren. 肮脏的小暴徒,拜登是个恶霸 ！美国纳粹,拜登是世界冷战的领导人。一方面,拜登推动欧洲国家直接对抗俄罗斯,将乌克兰战争转变为2023年春季欧洲的第三次世界大战。另一方面,拜登刚刚在他的土地上和亚洲挑起了第三次世界大战,把民用气球击落。拜登不是第一次尝试。拜登已经将许多美国国会议员转移到台湾挑衅中国。 – C'est un Acte de Guerre contre un Objet Civil. Un Acte de Guerre Sans Déclaration de Guerre. Dans cette Affaire il existe deux Bllons: le Ballon Civil et le Ballon Criminel. Ce dernier est la petite tête criminelle de Biden. It is an Act of War against a Civil Object. An Act of War Without a Declaration of War. In this Affair there are two Bllons: the Civil Balloon and the Criminal Balloon. The latter is Biden's little criminal head. Es ist ein Kriegsakt gegen ein ziviles Objekt. Ein Kriegsakt ohne Kriegserklärung. In diesem Fall gibt es zwei Bllons: den Zivilballon und den kriminellen Ballon. Letzterer ist Bidens kleiner krimineller Kopf. 这是针对民用物体的战争行为。没有宣战的战争行为。在这件事中，有两个球：民用气球和犯罪气球。后者是拜登的小罪犯头。!!!!!!!!!!…….

I don’t think I trust my government
lets send one to china and see how they react
Where were the intelligence and outrage when at least 3 Chinese spy balloons crossed the US during the Trump administration, according to the Pentagon?
Words to look for
capable
could
maybe
sources say
They had to say they couldn’t find it because there were too many texts and emails saying FJV
I don’t believe anything our government says. They lie so much about everything else.
So, you are saying our weather ballon doesn't have antennas too? smh.
They wouldn't have floated them over the country so many times over the past two administrations if they were not gathering useful information.
Anyone who has a brain would ask HOW LONG WAS THE BALLOON HOVERING OVER USA TERRITORY? DID IT FLOAT OVER MANY STATES OR HOVER FOR A LONG TIME OVER ONE STATE? When they get the answers, that is the time to use it against the Democratic party which the Republicans are doing today, right now.
This whole balloon fiasco makes no sense. US, under the Project Genetrix, flew more than 500 high-altitude balloons over China and Russia territories, and around the world. US insists that it is within its international rights to do so. National air space is usually around 30K feet above ground. And these high-altitude balloons fly 60K feet above. Granted, they are flying way lower than the low orbit satellites and the international laws are vague about this. But the real point here is that US is, in practice and in statement, accepts this as concensus.
In fact, China and Russia routinely fly these high-altitude balloons over US territories. During Trump administration, China flew 3 balloons over to US. And US military, politicians and media did not raise any concern. After all, US is doing exactly the same to the world. So this sudden rise of "outrage" by American media is puzzling. Is US turning back against its own practice? Or is it that US government wants to create tension between US public and China, so to distract its people from social unjust and economic stagnation at home? Or worse yet, is US Military Complex trying to create tension with "scary foreign enemy" to extract more money from its own country?
China supports The Biden family ,,,, The Big Guy multimillionaire. ,,,,, Who he thinks he's fooling ,,,,,,
Of course this was a blatant violations of US sovringty. Of course this was a surveillance balloon 🎈 not an ice cream delivery air unit to president Biden. China knows if war starts its ICBMs needs to travel long time and most of them will be brought down by US anti air systems because they will be detected from the first moments they are launched. Thus, the Chinese sees the balloon 🎈 case as the Trojan horse indeed. Imagine china sends 400 of such balloons 🎈 🎈 🎈 towards the US and each carrying 1nuclear rocket facing downward and drops them allover USA it means there will be 4 nuclear missile /rocket over each one of all US states I. E. China taking all of the US via such surveillance nuclear carrying balloon s. China last year did test on almost invisible balloons carrying such missiles facing downwards and each balloon carrying 4 rockets. Now china knows that USA can shoot down such big balloon flying at 60,000 feets. How about China will think if a wave of few hundreds of smaller balloons carrying nuclear bombs flies over Alaska and allover continental USA about 80,000 feets and this could mean the eradication of USA from 🌍 earth's map. I heard your general simis saying oh… We think before we shoot. Very strange and crazy words. Who knows maybe generals Austin and Milley told him so to let continue spying of American sensitive military sites from north to south east. This answer by this general of Norad is funny it resembles this joke… " a group of people visited a zoo. They saw all animals are happy jumping up and down and laughing but the donkey wasn't doing so. The donkey had his fore hand over his head while lying on the floor. However, the same group of people went again to the same Zoo and this time all the animals were quite while only the donkey was happy going up and down laughing. They asked him. Why you was silent yesterday while all the others were happy and laughing?.the donkey answers,… Oh… Yesterday that little monkey said a funny joke and all understood what the joke means yesterday not me. This is why it took me all yesterday and all last night thinking and I understood what the joke was. Not shooting the Chinese surveillance balloon at the point before it entered into the Canada and USA is treason.
What about a recap of "China balloons" spotted or shot down over South Asia, Southeast Asia, and Japan in 2015–2018?
You have no idea what they had in that baloon. It shouldn't have made it as far as it did. A baloon could most certainly carry biological warfare.
As a scientist and engineer with post graduate degrees in electrical engineering, I can assure you those were transmitter antennas, not receivers. The administration is flat out LYING
