IT IS BALLOON!
It was cheap.
It was simple.
It was unlikely to draw a harsh response.
Endless acres of wild speculation over this.
Lacking information, this is a pundit’s wildest dream.
EVERYTHING is intelligence gathering.
With just a couple of those and an EMP they could cripple the country.
We don’t see them launch, they just float away.
They are testing how reliably they can get it over the USA using just air currents.
If they attack Taiwan (very likely with Bidumb in office) they can use this against US to prevent a response.
IT IS BALLOON!
I wonder if the Visigoths sent a balloon over Rome first?
I’m considering a new tagline: “Don’t shop at Traitor Joe’s!”
Here is my motive. Russia is wrapping up the war as a win.
NATO generals met and are developing an army, preparing to go fight Russia in Ukraine.
Russia has said they will nuke the US if that happens.
China and Russia are bff.
They want to stop our nuclear capability to respond.
The balloon flew over two of our federal nuclear sites.
That’s all I have for now.
Third, Beijing could see Biden’s weakness and willingness to defer power to subordinates in the response to his order to shoot the spy satellite down three days later, February 1st, when it entered Montana airspace.
I don’t believe he gave this order on the 1st. I think he waited for the internal polling and focus group results before he acted.
Proven in a video released of his top advisor (a military veteran) speaking out! Tony Bobulinski, ex-Hunter Biden associate, on Joe Biden

Maybe, just maybe, China has sent a message.
Official US policy concerning China/Taiwan is “one-state” yet the US has troops and weapons in Taiwan and sends money to political groups that support separation.
The message could be that since the US is so fond of stirring up trouble in far away places “over there” that it might like a taste of trouble “over here”.
“China’s military capability may soon rival that of the United States.”
Hahahahahahahaha.
Demonstrate Biden Admin impotence.
Provides rationalization for taking out a U.S. Sat.
They expected for it to be shot down.... they just wanted to find out how far they could get into our air space.
Nobody has asked the question of what kind of propulsion system it was using that would function at 68,000 feet where there is little oxygen for a motor to function or the fuel capacity that would fuel it for the approx. 8 days that it was aloft. And likely very much longer if it hadn't been shot down.......
This has been nothing but a contrived diversion to take the focus off all the other crap that has been going on.
At the very least Milley should be removed
