If it wasn’t as ‘bad’ as today’s incursion, that everyone in the world has seen, then what is ‘classified’ about it?.....................enquiring minds want to know.

I suspect that the ‘classified’ part is an order by someone in the DOD ‘DO NOT INFORM POTUS TRUMP’ of this incident....................Smiley Miley?..............

NOW they tell them!

Maybe General Milley conferred with his CCP contacts and they agreed the Trump Administration should not be informed.

The narrative keeps changing by the hour.

++++++++++

Kind of reminds me of the document thingy. Only in reverse. Balloon happened to us (biden), happened to him too (Trump). They got caught, we got caught (documents). No big deal.

You remember the document thingy, right? We are being played.

Wait, how can you tell a Former President Classified Information when he is under investigation for not handling Classified Information correctly? This is absurd, on one hand he cannot be trusted with Classified Information and now they want to give him more! Do they think we are complete morons?

“The morons running the military used a 400k missile when something 40 times cheaper could have been used. Why? Because they want evidence destroyed the lying bastards. THEY DON’T WANT YOU TO KNOW.”

The Balloon Apocalypse is just another false flag by Swampy DoD to make both Biden and Trump look bad, and try and get funding for their own balloon-related stuff to make up for losing their satellites to Space Force.

Biden did say that he wanted the balloon shot down earlier, but DoD rebuked him...And who’s to say that the DoD didn’t launch the spy balloon themselves and merely *said* it belonged to China?

Yep, just like Afghanistan & Syria & Soliemani and every appropriations opportunity in between. Air Force appropriations will now want to pay contractors hundered of millions of dollars to neutralize this ‘threat’. Won’t be surprised if it is a turf war with Space Force either.

Trump gave Space Force all of the Air Force’s assets in space. like their satellites. So the Air Force wants high altitude balloons so it has it’s own competing assets & funding streams. And of course they will need a few more General slots to run those programs...

People wonder why the Swamp gets away with spending trillions every year. But all they have to do is leak some fake news & suddenly the triggered tax payers demand government shovel money at the problem to make this ‘threat’ go away.

Same Dem MO as with the documents. Even though the Biden documents are YEARS before the Trump documents...Tump is on the hook...not Biden.

The balloon...The Dems have had to invent balloons that happened during the Trump administration.

I'm sorry....They're friggin' lying.

So the military did not inform the CIC of foreign incursions into the US? That is frightening.

This is rich. Biden doesn’t know what is going on in his administration because, well he isn’t aware basically of anything.

Trump didn’t know what was going on in his administration behind his back, because, well it was being done behind his back . . .

“So Biden knew of the dangers ahead of time and still did nothing.”

**********

Which begs the question “knowing the threat what are they going to do about it?”.

All I can think (if these balloons really did fly over the US back then), is that they were afraid to tell anyone in the Trump Admin. because they thought Trump would order them to be shot down, and they were afraid that it would start WW III or something.

Other than that, there’s just no explanation for not telling anyone in Trump’s Admin., unless it’s just totally fabrication to cover for Biden’s hesitation to destroy it over the Aleutians.

Please, Lies... flat out lies..

Even the ones from the “anonymous” sources try to claim flying over US assets in the pacific as equivalent to over the continental US.

Wholesale lies, to protect the illegitimate administration and doddering puppet.

So up until 2 days ago the incursions were “undetected”.
Welcome to the deep state, DEEPFAKE USofBS!
