Biden, his administration, and the entire U.S. military and political establishment humiliated by a balloon.
There are sites which regularly publish President Biden’s verbal gaffes. When he’s not hiding in his basement these perilous days, those gaffes are one of the few things you can reliably count on.
Townhall.com published one Biden flub this week that is among my favorites.
BIDEN: "More than half the women in my administration are women."
If you doubt the accuracy of this there’s a video they’ve published which captured it.
Now that I think of it, given the way that Biden staffed his administration, perhaps this wasn’t a gaffe, but a rare moment of honesty from someone so consistently dissembling over many years that he makes Congressman George Santos look like an amateur.
In a break from the focus on Russia and Ukraine this week, a Chinese spy balloon was captured on film over Montana as it traveled across the country, viewing and transmitting home -- from a 90-foot array of equipment -- who knows what. There was a claim that it exploded over Montana, but that claim seems to have been credibly debunked.
The military claims it cannot do anything about it, that the balloon currently does not pose a "military or political" threat. They’ve also contended that in their assessment shooting it down could create debris that might hurt people on the ground.
The Chinese claim it’s a weather (meteorology balloon) that strayed into our territory. That seems unlikely, so you can expect there’s a great deal of speculation about its purpose. Is it to taunt us? Humiliate our demented president and his administration? Is it a trial run for something worse?

This single balloon had FJB totally baffled. The Chinese got their psychological data point.
Clarice ping
At Biden’s speech all Republicans should carry a red Balloon!

What Westerners don’t understand about mainland China - civilian, military its all the same. The principle is Military-Civil Fusion: What is learned in the military is immediately used by the civilian; what is learned by the civilian is immediately used by the military.
In China today there is only a paper separation between things military and things civilian.
Watching Biden getting off the plane...with Hunter. Really ticked me off. Can you say conspiracy?? They have to get there stories straight on this document stuff.
Why didn’t Canada shoot it down?
Turdough? .Communist privilege.
The Department of Defense official statement describes this as a Chinese platform sent to spy on our strategic infrastructure.
There is no “quiet part”. Our official position is stated and
openly published.
So we have cast China as liars.
Now…what are we going to do about it?
Prob more stupid stuff.
Like send the House Speaker or more chicken hawk politicians to Taiwan.
Conduct more military exercises.
Ramp up more sanctions.
Pressure our struggling allies to do the same.
What is important to know is WHAT EQUIPMENTS are in that balloon. Have we even tried to retrieve them? Or are they now under the deep blue sea, to be abandoned and forgotten.
Did our radar pick up this aircraft when it was over the Bering Sea?
How, when did we discover that it was a Chinese aircraft?
Why was it not immediately shot down as it moved into US airspace over Alaska? Why was the US population not informed about its existence until it was over Montana?
Did it have a transponder?
Was a flight plan filed for its potential path?
As with everything with this extended Obama administration, there is total honesty and transparency with this incidence!
Or have the Chicoms gotten to the wreckage before we did? If so, that’s gross incompetence on our part.
So we have cast China as liars.

We did not cast China as liars - the CCP always lies about everything. They do it to themselves - no help needed.
Can we retrieve any equipment from the wreckage? Or have the Chicoms gotten to the wreckage before we did? If so, that’s gross incompetence on our part.
China showed all Americans that Niden is their slut
Rule: Never believe what our government-media complex says.
Rule: If it sounds ridiculous, think it through even more. Use Occam’s Razor, logic, etc. See Climate Change, WMDs, Covid, Russiagate...

In short, this is all fiction.
Trial balloon showed just how WEAK AND PSTUPID WE ARE!
They probably don’t have any jets or missiles !
Why are there so many apologists like Johnson and Wauck for our adversaries? The CCP is an enemy of the United States, period.
