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.

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

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

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

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.

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?

"The senior military official who spoke to reporters Saturday said, "The debris is in 47 feet of water, primarily -- the recovery, that will make it fairly easy".

Damn those NE winds nearly pushed it all the way back to shore.

“No one was hurt”

FU!!

We we’re all hurt now and into the future as China uses the sensor data to map our vulnerabilities.

First it puts a lie to the idea our military could not shoot it down over Montana, second rather that shoot it down over land where recovery would be easier they waited until it was over salt water which will on its own destroy any electrical connection that may remain.

It is almost as if they did not want to recover the balloon and it’s payload.

THE CORRECT RESPONSE IS FOR bidet TO SEND A FOUR STAR GENERAL TO MEET WITH PRESIDENT XI.

I doubt they’ll find anything, China expected this balloon to be shut down

Another CCP virus delivery system? Maybe that is why Joe let it float across the United States before dealing with it.

“hello, Xi? This is Joe, er, your employee. Things are getting a little hot in the document case against me, do you think you could send a little diversion, for the press to latch on to? Thanks boss!”

What ever the reasons this event took place, it was undeniably a test of military response to a threat in its actions. The resulting inaction of Canada and the United States speaks volumes about the people currently in charge in both countries.

It is time for our military to step in and remove the people plotting the demise of this country and hold new elections.
