head of President Biden’s first address in the Oval Office since announcing he was dropping out of the presidential race, the North American Aerospace Defense Command Public Affairs (NORAD) says it sent out fighter jets to intercept two Russian Tu-95 "Bear" bombers and two Chinese H-6 bombers off the coast of Alaska.

Probing for weakness
They should just send in alien UFOs.
NORAD personnel are under orders to ignore them.
Lol.
This happens all the time since the 1950s....
And now we just send Raptors and Eagles up for photo bombs.
Or more of those big white balloons, glittering with itty bitty spy cameras and devices as it floats over American mountain ranges. Joe says don’t worry about it.

Dropping off The Big Guy’s cut?
Kissinger and Nixon figured out in the early 1970s, the best way forward for the USA in a multi-polar world was to play Russia and China against each other.
Stupid and corrupt DC neocons threw that strategy out the window.
