The tl;dr on what I just said is STFU.


Well they’re now backtracking that spin, so you look dumb.

Yep. So much for the desperate whatabouting.

Ha! Even Political says Dems are lying about this. Thank you for the link, PP.


Yep. We have multiple officials ON THE RECORD saying this never happened.

We have unnamed defense officials claiming it did. Until they go on the record and provide details, they are not to be believed.

The difference, Defense Department officials said, is that those balloons never stayed above U.S. territory for a significant period of time. When pressed for specifics, such as the date, location and duration of those instances, Biden administration officials refused to provide them citing the classified nature of that information.

Some officials did speak in generalities, however. DoD tracks “hundreds” of balloons every day, but they are typically not deemed a threat. Their presence close to or over the United States would not be brought to the attention of senior leaders unless their behavior was “completely out of the ordinary, like this one,” said one senior Pentagon official.

At lower levels, officials have tracked multiple instances of balloon activity over U.S. territories in recent years. One of the Trump-era balloons hovered over Guam, according to two U.S. officials. And in 2020, the intelligence community assessed that far-smaller balloons detected off the coast of Virginia were Chinese radar-jamming devices, according to a former senior DoD official.

Rep. Michael Waltz (R-Fla.), a member of the House Armed Services Committee, tweeted Sunday that the office of Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin had informed his office that “several Chinese balloon incidents have happened in the past few years - including over Florida.”

“Why weren’t they shot down?” he added. “And according to several Trump Admin national security officials - they were never informed of these intrusions by the Pentagon.”

Blinken should go on a very public trip to Taiwan this week.
And, carry with him the remnants of the balloon.

Exactly. Most of the world knows the WH should have taken down the balloon BEFORE it hovered over our country. This administration does nothing when it’s friends ignore our laws. Would China allow us to do this? Of course not.


These Chinese balloons have now flown over dozens of countries. Yet how many shot them down? Right now the US is the only country I'm aware of that shot one down.

Or better yet, any sketchy surveillance tech brought up by our divers.

Precisely. The door is wide open with Biden.


OMG, Under Biden the US military shot it down, jammed their transmissions and studied it all week.

Trump, who had a bank account and was on the China dole during his presidency, never even acknowledged, much less did anything, about the same thing when it happened under his watch.

They aren't backtracking. They are claiming ignorance under Trump's watch. That is worse.

You seem confused. They are challenging Biden officials who claim the same thing happened during Trump's administration - yet the Biden officials can't provide any proof of such.

You know nothing about how this was handled. Watching the balloon on Fox and listing to Carlson and Crew yammering on ignorantly does not make you an expert on any aspect of this.


Calm down sweetie, I’ve never watched Fox News in my life.


I'm not your sweetie, you sexist pig.

Liar. Even Politico said this is a blatant lie.

False. Trump had millions in undisclosed Chinese bank accounts. He also paid more in taxes to the CCP than he did to the US treasury.
