and say they are taking steps to “protect against foreign intelligence collection.”

I think the best way to protect against foreign intelligence collection, would be if it wasn’t there in the first place.

Maybe it’s delivering thousands of little white cartons of Chinese food.

What is our manufacturing and technology doing in China?

Have I thanked you free traitors for what you did to this country yet?

Balloons are transitory. We have dozens of spy satellites parked over commie China most of the time.

This is really a nothing burger news piece, China probably has half a dozen satellites looking at us at all times, and a few thousand spies working in the USA at any one time. My gut feeling is the spies on the ground is where the bulk of their intelligence probably comes from.

What is more news worthy is the little snippet of news included in Story is the USA might be in war with the Chinese in the near future, basically our government, or the swamp dwellers want us to believe the Chinese are a big threat to America (whether they are or not) so Americans will become MORE dependent on our government to protect them from the real evil country for good or bad.

Since this has happened before, the interesting question is why this is being publicized in the mainstream media now—

Did the National Security Council decide to publicize it for some reason?

Did some hawkish Air Force General send up some fighters and close Billings air space knowing that it would become a media story?

Remember when China sent all those free seeds to us 4 or 5 years ago? Were we ever told what that was all about? No telling what the balloon is filled with, and Xi is counting on us to bring it down and releasing the stuff.

It’s not a spy balloon. Xi read Jules Verne and is trying to make it around the world in 79 days.
