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.
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?
