As long as their sock puppet biden is in the WH the CCP can pretty much do as it pleases.

Big dogs about what?

All they do is talk about big talk.

They are about to get their asses kicked by a proven military.

Oh for goodness sakes, those are recruitment ads!

The problem isn’t the Air Force, it’s the political will at the top.

Proof:

What would Trump have done? Same Air Force, different leader.

The US lacks decisive leadership.

Too many thought mean tweets weren’t worth it.

They are obviously wrong.

"We dare not tempt them with our weakness."
US President John Kennedy

Allowing Biden to occupy the White House is a glaring expression of weakness.

The real weakness is the half of the US electorate who have allowed themselves to be brainwashed and thus willing to accept all the outrages of the Democrat Party, the woke movement, and all the evils that plague 21st century America! If America falls, it is THEY who will be responsible!

Yep. Check that out. I watch a lot of educational and informative videos and I speed through them, slowing down and backing up when I come across something interesting.

You can cover a lot of ground that way.

I share your doubts about Gordon, but I still find it worthwhile to listen to “some” of his comments...if it can be done quickly.

Perhaps the ballon was assessing US electronic airspace, seeking ways to get closer to military installations without triggering alarm and/or still communicate with China.

We also know the China government lies (as do all governments).

How do we deal with the people responsible for giving china everything?
We all know what the answer is but we will have to wait for the smoke to clear and we defeat china on the battlefield if it is not to late

It’s easy for china to fly a balloon into American airspace when the president of US works for china

The part you are not hearing about is how this went public. I am pretty sure the administration would never have told the public about this if they had a choice.

Bingo questioning of Hunter nearing fast Joey put up his house for $1000.00 an hour lawyers for cover smear bribe and any other dirty trick to make it all go away.

A lot of heat is going to be following the dots.

“Sends message that US isn’t willing or able to control its airspace,”

I thought that from the beginning.
