    I'm a little confused why everyone is so surprised.

    The Biden administration and the CCP are two sides of the same coin. For all intents and purposes the two countries are cooperative governing mafias. But even that explanation may be giving the Biden administration too much credit.

    It should be commonly understood by now the United States is a captured nation, a vassal at best, and certainly a fallen sovereign.

    Mike Adams weighs in supporting your comment, T Smith. It really should be obvious to everyone by now.

    (For me personally, the Pentagon stating they are not taking down the balloon "out of an abundance of caution" for the safety of the people on the ground is laughable. They do not care one iota for the safety of their population, they have demonized their own population as domestic terrorists. They used the term "out of an abundance of caution" over and over again when they all went into lockdown for the "pandemic". That term jars me, it sounds like a code phrase to signal to their allies that they are in on the operation.)

    Anyhow, Mike Adams brings up a number of points to consider. 31 minutes:

    I suspect that the big picture here is fear mongering, adding to the anti-China psyop agenda. The anti-China agenda was never meant to end in war, but the protracted fear of war. That fear is the basis for the trillion dollar military industrial complex contracts. The military industrial complex (owned and controlled by Deep State players), takes 2/3rds of the US budget.

    The USA imports billions of dollars of Chinese goods each year, and that would end with an effective EMP attack on the US - the Chinese would destroy their own economy. The Chinese government setting off an EMP burst over their main importer is therefore laughable (to me.)

    We can assume the balloon has been determined not to have a nuclear payload.
    And we can assume it is not for reconnaissance because they have satellites that do that.
    So...

    What if:

    The payload is a bio-chemical weapon?
    The payload is an EMP weapon?
    The payload is a weapon we have never heard of before?

    Then:
    Is it a threat?
    Is it a mistake?
    Or has it been deployed with a purpose?

    My advice:
    Shoot it down right NOW!
    Ask questions and offer speculations after!


    These dirigibles have massive payload capabilities.
    The only portion of the weapon that needs to be visible is the communications/targeting array.

    It is the visible payload that is the size of three buses.
    The balloon itself is far larger, like fifty times that size!

    What is contained within can easily be completely invisible to any detection. That means they do not know what it contains.
    And, the area inside that balloon is very large.

    Draw your own conclusions.
    Is it a direct threat?
    Is at least an existential threat?
    Or did some child in China lose their birthday balloon?

    Perhaps China’s "test" balloon was to gauge American resolve.

    If so, they failed. America's enemies are emboldened.

    America's enemies own Joe & Hunter.

    Happyuk , don't think there isn't a bunch of us concerned here in the states on the inaction of our government, so what they shot it down after it scanned the United States. I,'ll bet people in the Pentagon and Biden administration are all sipping champagne at what a great job they did . I'm a veteran and I think this is the first time in my life where I think our military leadership and elected officiaals all have skirts and pom Poms and are worried about breaking a nail during their decision activites. I have no confidence in them at all. This is truly the most fuxxed up i,'ve ever seen our country and i,m not the only one.

    ...

    ... from Jim Stone about that balloon:
    I don't think the balloon was shot down

    It was probably self detonated.

    UPDATE: If you watch the video close up, a charge on the balloon itself detonated and released the payload, and a half second later the payload exploded. Auto destruct was used, obviously.

    That exact balloon type was done by America's own DOD and I don't think China copied it that closely. And it looked exactly like a souped up version of Google's Project Loon.

    Watch the videos of the "shoot down". There should have been an obvious missile trail complete with final maneuvering swirlies as it did the final approach all the way to the balloon, and nothing got within a mile of it.

    It's totally obvious.

    I think it self detonated.


    AND JUST LIKE OSAMA, THEY BURIED IT AT SEA. You mean to tell me they let that thing go ALL THE WAY across the U.S., only to shoot it down SIX (6) SIX miles after it left the American coast?

    Did I say SIX? Why six???

    ==================================================

    ... "They" wouldn't let something like that go on and on unless there was something(s) in it for "them".

    Particulate matter from the balloon will not reach the ground for a week...

    Was it spraying something out the whole time it was over the continent?

    I guess we'll know in a week.
