The key lie: this whole balloon thing started off like a version of “the first liar never has a chance.” No matter how good the first lie is the second liar will top it and so on thru the story. We’re about 600 liars into this one and it’s still the weekend. Bidum sitting on his hands (or whatever he sits on) in Delaware for the weekend should be reason enough to go 25th on him.

I’m surprised they don’t show this balloon libtards used to trash Trump, but then say this was proof Trump was colliding with Russia, Russia, Russia…. Spying on Americans.

From the daily mail-—

“””The Pentagon said on Saturday that at least three such aircraft were spotted above American territory under the Trump administration”””

https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-11715549/Trump-DENIES-Pentagons-claim-three-Chinese-balloons-entered-airspace-watch.html
Notice how the Daily Mail uses the word ‘aircraft’ and then the word ‘territory’ in their ‘lying thru their teeth’ headline.

Yeah, there are probably several instances of spy planes or balloons going over or near some obscure US territory in the vast South Pacific ocean like the Bikini Atoll.

The Pentagon is not our friend.

The three Chinese spy balloons were all seen flying over the USA on February 30, 2017. My source is CNN.

If there were balloons

And the military never said anything, those who knew should be brought up on charges of treason and shot within 24 hours.

The whole thing is a lie....somebody would have seen it.

Total lie from the jump............

Notice that the Trump camp is responding rapidly to this latest lie. Hopefully, they now have an infrastructure in place to shoot the fake news down as it occurs. Because it will occur, and you can’t just react to it. You have to be pushing your agenda, not just rebutting theirs.

You really will never know until the cackling hens of the View weigh in with their immense intelligence data.

If it happened during Trump’s watch then they should be able to provide specific dates, locations and photographs.

Don't rush them. They're writing the false narrative as fast as they can. Lies take more time and brain power than the truth.

"So the Russians in Moscow supplied the hookers for Trump....Oh, wait, that's on an old draft."

If this happened “briefly” it happened not so briefly in Canada. Let’s have Lil’ Justin come forth and confirm this. Come on, just do it lil’ puzzy!

Either it didn’t happen,or the Pentagon withheld such information from the Commander in Chief and his major cabinet members. Which is it? Both options look bad for those that are pushing this narrative.
