  1. Yeah you could have given that money to Ukraine with the rest of it

  2. Would it be considered National Security if you were to let American people now? At the same time your letting the offenders know your every move. Operation Security isn’t really a thing anymore, stop trying to appease slick tongued senators. Let the Military access what’s going on first an stop trying to rush the process. When you rush you get faulty Intel.

  3. Missiles for a ballon? Should have just used the cannon.

  4. How about instead of “insights” they provide pictures and video?
    Why would I want scripted insights?

  5. The White House in almost as inept as NBC News.
    Watch out, the people are leaving your network in droves.
    Sick of liars and manipulators- and NBC covering their crimes up.

  6. This more and more seems like a distraction. Look elsewhere for the news we’re missing.

  7. Ever feel like you are being punked🥱

  8. The American people pay for those missiles being used in this misinformation campaign to draw attention away from the Classified Documents.

  9. Question on violation of privacy, contact Assumption university. Not only hiding recorder in every office, AU stole and uploaded teachers’ voice chat for years on social media. This uni also sold stale education, hundreds of teachers have no right degrees.

  10. They could have used that 2+ mil to clean up palestine ohio instead of using it for a distraction, but then theyd have to pay up EVERY TIME theres a toxic spill disaster

  11. we sent billions to ukraine no one care, a missle that cost 400k goes to waste trying to protect our airspace and the media is quick to point out the cost lol

  12. Use million dollar missiles instead of cheap bullets 🤣😂🤣 they are literally balloons 🤣😂🤣

  13. Why haven’t this network talk about Ohio toxic train issue?

  14. As usual Americans are too impatient to wait for their government to actually find out what is going on so the have to invent a whole lot of frightening B.S. to scare each other with. It is probably just some weather balloons or University research projects that now have been blown to bits but no one will believe that now – it's too ordinary.

  15. It's all a diversion… Let's talk about the hunter Biden laptop

  16. What I find strange is that all three of these objects were found in northern parts of the US rather than southern or western parts. I believe these objects are foreign.

  17. Balloons after saying them self one was tic tac and the other a black metal octogan come one and now balloons 😒😒😒😒

  18. Thats why they call them "miss"les

  19. If it's not a big deal, why are they making it a big deal? What's really going on?

  20. In the past two weeks MSM and US politicians were all using the balloons as warmongering tool. All MSM were calling them 'China spy balloons'. This is why in a capitalist country especially the US, you can never believe these corporate propaganda machines.

  21. Could be this, spy balloons, metal cylinders, ufo, too many conflicting stories and it needs to be addressed truthfully by the president! 💯

  22. Imagine spending millions of dollars to shoot down a kid's science project…I suppose that's something the kid will be able to brag about with his peers though.

  23. All they are doing a s making the American population lose trust in the US government

  24. Even if they are saying they're telling the truth, we still aren't going to believe them. Politics and the truth are like oil and water.

  25. propaganda. if it is an unidentified flying object, how do they know that it's chinese right off the bat.

  26. the usa army was clear it cant handle -40 tempature water

  27. Is it cold n where's Alaska, stupid speech.
