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.
After it already collected the flight patterns over the US.
Meanwhile, China Joe Biden is quiet. He is a TRAITOR.

The British members of Parliament raise hell with the British leader who has to sit with them to explain his policies during sesssions of Parliament.
If that balloon isn’t shot down, the Republicans should do that at the State of the Union speech and we can see how the prissy old idiot reacts.
Oh for the good ol’ days when President Trump hosted Xi Jinping at Mar-a- Lago.
No, this one is included in the 10% paid to the big guy. From what I read here last night, the Chinese tried to get a freebie in by sending in a second balloon. That one was shot down over Montana? Brandon is not going to stand for that! If you want a second balloon, you better pay up front, with a nice amount to mah boy, and a lil some for General She/They so he keeps quiet about it.

I’m up in the Hickory area. I never could see it.
But won’t that hurt the whales? Oh my! When will the eis be done?
This whole affair is silly.
What happens if we send a baloon to fly over China?
FYI: The warhead on the US Sidewinder missile did NOT detonate when it impacted the Chinese War Balloon. It could be because the target was too soft to cause the missile’s impact fuse to work, and maybe its proximity fuse could not “see” the thin floating balloon enough, that it was unable to reflect enough of a signal to “read” its proximity. But more likely? I believe the US Air Force removed the explosive warhead from the missile, so they were basically firing a supersonic dart at the balloon, so as to take no chances of damaging the technological apparatus it was carrying!
