I mean. It keeps happening. China keeps losing control of their weather balloons. It's the darnedest thing.

It's even happening in South America. I hope we're not buying our weather balloons from China.

That same dumbass is not passing anything along about "this object." Not even confirming that it's a balloon. Just "an object" smaller than last week's balloon.

Supposedly what was shot down was what they believe is over ice? Size of a small car?



Who knows what they shot down?

This gas bag is far more likely to be filled with methane and hydrogen sulfide than helium or hydrogen.

Anyone else wondering what the Biden administration gave to China so they would send another ballon across so Biden could look tough this time around?

US military shoots down 'object' flying in territorial waters over Alaska

The U.S. military shot down an "object" at the request of President Biden that was flying in territorial waters over Alaska, John Kirby said.

www.foxnews.com

"I can confirm that the Department of Defense was tracking a high altitude object over Alaska airspace in the last 24 hours. The object was flying at an altitude of 40,000 feet and posed a reasonable threat to the safety of civilian flight. Out of an abundance of caution and the recommendation of the Pentagon, President Biden ordered the military to down the object. And they did. And it came in inside our territorial waters," Kirby said."

Just heard that Kirby was 11 minutes into his press conference, when a reporter asked about "the object" shot down. Looks a lot like he was not gonna volunteer this info, had he not been questioned.

Did they want this to disappear in the weekend news cycle?
