Biden White House announces Interagency Team to address 'Unidentified Aerial Objects'

WASHINGTON β€” The Biden administration is forming an interagency group to address the recent spate of objects in the skies above North America, the White House announced Monday.

"The president, through his national security adviser, has today directed an interagency team to study the broader policy implications for detection, analysis and disposition of unidentified aerial objects that pose either safety or security risks," National Security Council spokesman John Kirby said at a White House briefing.

"Every element of the government will redouble their efforts to understand and mitigate these events," he said.

Kirby said the national security team's task is to "dig into this deeper from an interagency effort and to see what if other improvements" need to be made.

Administration officials are expected to provide an all-senators classified briefing about the unidentified objects Tuesday morning, a spokesman for Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer, D-N.Y., said Monday. They will also get a classified briefing about China Wednesday.

The U.S. has shot down four objects over North America this month, beginning Feb. 4, when the military took down a suspected surveillance balloon owned by the Chinese government. The three others were unidentified objects that Kirby said Monday the administration is still working to learn more about, particularly from recovered debris.

"We have not yet been able to definitively assess what these most recent objects are," said Kirby, who also noted that the U.S. does not know their origins.

I saw the headline as saying he appointed a “transgender” group to study this.

Have they recovered the last two shoot-downs yet?

What if these Chink balloon pops are just one of their Tik Tok challenges. So far, anything is possible.

At first, Joe-blob identified the object first, then shot it down (long after he should have, and the spy damage was already done), then for the others, he decided to shoot first, then identify them later. Β  That is reminiscent of the old "you have to vote for the bill first, in order to find out what's in it".

(On Tucker's show tonight, he mentioned that there are (so far) unverified rumors going around which claim that a least one of those shot-down balloons was a US Weather Service weather balloon.)

They did the same thing with Bright Star and Blue Book. And both were there to try to make the public think the incidents didn’t happen or were swamp gas.

But I feel the problem here is they are trying to offset something we actually have in hand. Hard to prove something doesn’t exist when it makes the front page of every major paper in the world with people pulling it out of the water and saying this is it. It’s more than the National Enquirer.

New idea: Lockdowns all over the country and mandatory tinfoil hats at all times, home or if allowed outside by authorities.

The resistance to alien and Chinese rays from the overhead objects will defuse the threat within maybe two years.πŸ€ͺπŸ‘½πŸ€–

‘Unidentified Aerial Objects’?

Perhaps just practice intercepts because of DEFCON 2?

The skeptic guy who headed up Project Blue Book investigations, J. Allen Hynek, in the end became a believer in UFO’s.
