joe asleep at the wheel again. smh.
The contents are known and the builders. USG doesn't want us to know. Wonder why ?
China does this to express dominance over Biden.
Biden is a powerbottom.
When they say it doesn't pose a threat..IT DOES POSE A THREAT
"We don't know who sent it or what it is doing or how it got here undetected, but we do know it isn't a threat".
??????
Makes ya wonder who is protecting AMERICA
Nothing to see here people……its just china sending more cash to biden
I feel so much better now that I watched this.
dont worry, its just inflation…
Balloon 2
"does not post a threat to national security" just like the south open border huh?? POS POTUS!
The old fear tactic 😂😂 how played out
😳 they only found out about it when it was over Utah ?? 😂
The Biden Administration, "keenly aware" ? Lol……
Ain't that strange that theres been cell phone outages also
Was it a boy or girl ?
It's an F22 raptor 🔥
And sleepy joe will do nothing and act like it didn't even happen 😂. Weakness
These balloons fly over all the time. It's politics that are shooting them down.
Are they going to let this one fly across the entire country like they did the last one?
China came back for round 2 💀💀😭😭🙏🏻
No photos at all?
Smoke and mirrors, Sorry I mean smoke and balloons.
Our own government is going to knock out the electrical grid to stop the election and for the great reset and then blame it on an emp from a Russian balloon.
Another Chinese spy balloon. Where is the deterrence?
OK! if no threat then why scramble jets? THE GOVERNMENT IS LYING TO PPL!!
Only under the Biden administration this is allowed. They are a part of the Chinese communist party. They hate America. Vote out the Dumbo-bratz in 2024!
how bored are we
LOL "Mystery Balloon" my a$$. I'm sure they knew about it before it even entered U.S. air space, just like they did the previous balloons. They only tell us after some civilian spots it and they are forced to address it publicly. Make every effort not to upset out Chinese overlords. Amazon needs to keep all that cheap crap coming over.
spy balloons? <<<<< Joe Biden did this !!!
high gas prices? <<<<Joe Biden did this !!!
Balloon szn
By the way, these aircraft fly over Utah daily. So basically nothing's different besides some balloon I guess…
All this news is fake, filled with fake stories.
Military: “it’s not a threat”
Also military: “a threat is about uncertainty”
Anything goes
If the contents of the payload isn't known, then how can someone say that it doesn't pose a threat????????? BAD ASSUMPTION
Only in America can you shoot a 12 dollar hobby balloon with a 2 million dollar missile. Americans don't have a good track record with balloons. Remember that balloon that landed in the desert of new Mexico and everyone thought the balloon was an inter galactic alien spacecraft! Ridiculous people.
Here comes another virus 🦠
Covid 24 in tanks
Steering a balloon…🤔, no propulsion, no flight control surfaces, totally at the mercy of the winds aloft. Typical dumbazz ignorant reporting. 🤨👎If these idiots can’t get the facts right, then there’s NO integrity, at all. Fact check people, it’s not difficult.
Since WHEN does the WHITE HOUSE or ANYONE IN THE WH HAVE ANY IDEA WHAT IS GOING ON, BESIDES WHAT TIME LITTLE JOEY LAST HAD HIS DIAPER CHANGED AND WHO HAD TO TUCK HIM IN AFTER READING HIM A STORY????
Clearly a UFO
Is china they get out of ideas what to copy next
Does this mean the F-22 is now a balloon Ace
