The article has lots of specific details... location, depths, etc.

Propaganda.. We probably left the area so China could pick it up.

Allowing this spy balloon to fly the entire width of the United States before shooting it down is an act of treason. The Pentagon is now nothing more than an arm of the CCP.

I heard the one down in Mexico has giant speakers that play Mariachi music and is covered with Mexican beer ads.

National security and sovereign dignity hardest hit.

[nuconvert]

Only 47 feet deep six miles out? Seem kind of shallow

[Rappini]

I’ll bet when they examine the spy equipment they’ll find that it probably looks like our stuff.

[no-to-illegals]

They blew the balloon up and want to study it. That's hilarious

[laplata]

This morning, John Ratcliff, Trump’s Director of National Intelligence said this is a disaster for the United States. He implied that Biden’s intelligence people are all compromised.

Considering China’s First Strike
Three Years ago.....

It’s in an area of the ocean known as the Continental Shelf, and farther out drops off to 16,000’ deep.

Seems odd they allowed it to fly cross country before acting.

[gundog]

Weird, huh? It’s like water levels rose as the ice sheets melted.

[newzjunkey]

China probably got all the data they needed from it and Ok’d the destruction to allow Joe to save face. They will saber rattle to make for a good show to the unwashed and the press will go hard on covering for Joe. It’s all a scam.

[Persevero]

yes, perhaps it’s time to call up the Cajun Army

Or maybe we should dither about it a few more days

In all reality they should have been in charge from the beginning it would have been handled.

[Sertorius]

More microplastic for the ocean. Thanks Biden.

[Brilliant]

I suspect we did not even know that the balloon was there until it was over Montana. Otherwise why would we not shoot it down over Alaska?

[GingisK]

They can reassemble aircraft that crashed on land and learn what caused the crash. I’m sure plastic film will look pretty much the same either intact or ripped all to hell and gone.

[spokeshave]

Only 47 feet deep six miles out? Seem kind of shallow

If so there should be a marine hazard chart for it

Its on the continental shelf....so could be that shallow.

[Wayne07]

Beware of the balloon of tonkin. Deep state wants war with China, which would be insane.

[pfflier]

They are not interested in the balloon envelope, they want to study the payload package suspended underneath.
