Gens. James Mattis and Mark Milley have yet to disclose whether they knew of past flyovers

So who at the Department of Defense leaked this? In journalism ethics, an “anonymous source” loses it protection as soon as it lies.

“they were not discovered until after President Joe Biden took office in 2021”

Keep pounding this into their tiny brains.

.........not telling Trump sounds very much like something Mattis, in his frame of mind back then, could have done.

"I would be shocked if General Mattis knew about it and hadn't shared that with either the CIA director or the secretary of state," he said.

Notice Pompeo didn't add Trump's name to his “shocked” comment?

The top ranks now are filled with commie freaks and sexual deviant scumbags. The Woke Brigade.

If it is true, that this information was withheld from President Trump, it is admission (additional?) that there was indeed a coup taking place within the government intelligence agencies (military and civilians).

There is no way anything like this huge Chinese spy balloon passed over the US without military and public reaction.

I suspect the reason nobody of significance was informed is because unlike this incident, those balloons were of no significance. Probably small, disposable balloons with a radiosonde or some other lightweight instrument package that are launched all over the world every day. It’s possible a few make it from China to the US. I know our weather guessers launched them from my ships all the time. After a few hours, they were lost and forgotten, and nobody really cared where they went...

Its a two-fer for the dems.

The dems will claim that not only did Chinese balloon incursions happen on Trump’s watch but that our military didn’t dare tell Trump about it because everyone knows Trump is nuts.

It becomes clearer each day that military and intelligence agencies work on behalf of their own political agendas. Eisenhower is still correct.

There needs to be a serious housecleaning. Given the number of intelligence agencies there is a huge duplication of effort and cost. Our national security depends on efficiency and effectiveness. A major component to that is effective communications. It is not possible to have effective communications with so many intelligence agencies. That was supposedly a lesson learned from 9/11. I completely suspect our intelligence operations are magnitudes worse today than they were prior to 9/11.

Redundant intelligence operations need to be eliminated and then combined into one agency. The deep state needs to be eliminated. There should be zero spying on American citizens. All of the NSA should be abolished.

At this point, our government is a greater threat to freedom than any foreign power.

I find no problem believing that fully Modern Milley was colluding with the Chinese. Call me when he is convicted of treason and sentenced to the guillotine. I will pay to pull the cord. Of course, I’ll probably be outbid by millions of fellow citizens who were actually faithful to the country and would love to give that fat ass justice.

The typical goons kept it from Trump because they didnt want Trump to hurt their beloved Xi’s lil balloon and besides, if Trump had had the balloon shot down, they didnt want him to get credit for it

The entire narrative is a bold face lie in order to deflect blame from Biden. This is how these people operate. Nothing honest about any of them.

The latest story now is that nobody knew about the other three balloons until puddinghead personally increased our nation’s ability to detect chinese balloons. No joke, this is their latest version.
