Nothing Burger. While flying over the US and our missile sites...pictures taken were transmitted in real-time to the ChiComs.

Damage was done long before we shot it down.

Yeah, that's a strong message to the chinks. We let it over our borders, let it float around, let it float out of our borders ..... now, we shoot it down.

They know our country is led by castrated retards and next time, the balloon will have some "punch."

I wonder if they did it on their own, without the administration’s permission.

More likely Biden would not have given permission had the first one not become a huge embarrassment for him. So it was about him, but not the country.

With the complicity of the Biden Administration, the Chinese balloon was permitted to complete its surveillance mission over the United States before being shot down.

I thought it was impossible to shoot down?

Masks don’t work, then they do.

Chinese satellites gather even more intel. The real issue is the potential of pathogen or EMP delivery in the future.
