ALIENS.....the Close Encounters variety? Or the Independence Day type?

Maybe if the media didn’t refer to balloons as UFOs.

if it were real UFO stuff, we wouldn’t even know about it.

but instead state media goes out of its way to tease and hint. so this gets things like Ohio environmental disaster and other unpleasant topics off the news.

how many people here know what is going on in East Palestine, Ohio? it is a huge incident and it is hard to find much of anything on it.

The reason for the secrecy is that the Biden pants pooper thinks the American people are a greater enemy than the Chinese.

RE: if it were real UFO stuff, we wouldn’t even know about it.

I gotta admit I never thought I’d see seemingly otherwise intelligent people seriously suggesting we’re being invaded by space aliens.

BUT THE BOTTOM LINE : What’s become clear in the public discussion is that we don’t really have adequate radar systems. We certainly don’t have an integrated missile defense system.

Could this be the primary reason the first downed ChiCom balloon carried high-tech equipment capable of collecting communications signals and other sensitive information?

Information, no doubt, that was sent back to China on a real-time basis, further exposing the inexplicable lack of reaction by woefully incompetent Joe Biden for at least a week before he finally succumbed to public pressure and shot down the first balloon only after it had traversed the entire U.S. mainland and headed out over the Atlantic Ocean.

The Republican House should push the issue of funding closing the gaps in the U.S. air defense infrastructure system, ASAP, to the max — and dare Senate Democrats and Joe Biden to oppose it.

Here’s the deal:

The ‘mothership’ concept is far from novel.

I can’t help but wonder if CCP - or the other country which immediately came to my mind last week - hasn’t been testing the mothership concept for intelligence gathering (of course, masquerading as ‘scientific research’).

I also can’t help but wonder if that balloon shot down off SC wasn’t a mothership and if this ‘object’ was its drone.

"And if it wasn’t a balloon, then what the heck was it?

Planned parenthood must have suggested the word, "octagon."

Certainly Louis Farrakhan believes in the ‘Mothership’ concept and has for a long, long time.

aside from the first balloon, it seems very likely that whatever they are shooting down every day was either launched by the US or china.

on the alien stuff, all reported contacts with military jets over the decades have indicated that we may well be unable to shoot one down, whatever it is they are seeing.

here we just have things floating along that quite nicely blow up or whatever.

and it dominates the news cycle for days.

Ohio, anyone?

That feller that attached balloons to his lawnchair better avoid that mode of transportation for a while.

Well if they shot down a VW bug it should be floating in Lake Huron.

Yes, it is the aliens. Those strange lights in the sky....I'm pretty sure they're looking at my house.

Maybe if generals didn't call them "objects" instead of balloons.

"We're calling them objects, not balloons, for a reason," says U.S. Air Force General Glen VanHerck.
