The Chinese spying on the Queen City. I think the US plans to shoot this balloon down once it is over the ocean.

A joint China/United States military exercise?

Lok at the upper air currents on the NOAA site, at 900+ millibars it could not have been carried by the upper air wind currents alone.

IMO, the balloon is pinpointing exact locations of strategic energy reserves and military installations with the blessings of the BIDEN administration.

China only copies technology. I would bet these balloons came from American designs of purpose and hardware. There may be really good reason American government doesn’t want that thing coming down in whole or in pieces where inquiring minds and hands begin onion peeling.

“U.S. officials have been tracking the balloon”
What a relief we are taking this seriously.

Worse than Biden’s inaction, is how many red states did that fly over?
Hello Republican governors, are you not in control of your National Guard units?

No. The enemy always has a "probe" to ascertain our defenses. Or, in this case, our willingness to defend.
The chinks are gauging how easy it will be to send another balloon, at the right time, armed with an EMP, germ warfare, etc. And their co-conspirators, the slimy Bidens, Gates, etc, will all be safely ensconced in a five star bunker somewhere.

It’s not off course. Is the other balloon over SA also off course? I don’t think so.

Shoot it down over international waters. Minimal damage to the payload upon recovery. Then see what the Chicom’s do.
To: princess leah
The Pentagon has said It is not to be shot down for fear of that it might hurt people on the ground.
Or not that’s what they want us to believe.
