Makes sense to me......probably not the socialists on this board.

Rubio says China flew balloon over US to send 'a message': They think America is 'in decline'

"The key part here is they knew exactly what they were doing and there was a message behind it," Rubio told ABC "This Week" co-anchor Jonathan Karl.

"They understood that it [the balloon] was going to be spotted, they knew the U.S. government would have to reveal it, that people were gonna see it over the sky. And the message they were trying to send is what they believe internally, and that is that the United States is a once-great superpower that's hollowed out, it's in decline," Rubio said.

"The message they're trying to send the world is, 'Look, these guys can't even do anything about a balloon flying over U.S. airspace. How can you possibly count on them if something were to happen in the Indo-Pacific region? ... How are they going to come to the aid of Taiwan or stand with the Philippines or Japan or India when the Chinese move on their territory?'" he said.

They are probably laughing at the fighting they caused. They know how to stir up controversy and hysteria.

Pentagon testing mass surveillance balloons across the US

Exclusive: the high-altitude balloons promise a cheap monitoring platform that could follow multiple cars and boats for extended periods

Did you read the whole article?

I read that Trump's top security advisors said it never happen, which means Potatohead is a friggin liar..

You have a hard time understanding that? Typical for a stupid uneducated low IQ inbred Moon Bat.

If your saying they were making a point, the Rubio article says you are right.

Don't be such a child.

I don’t think it was a spy balloon. I think China is just trolling us.

 

[surada]

The Trumpies reacted just as the Chinese expected.

China is calling attention to its "superiority" to worry their enemies. Fortunately, the millions of people worldwide who have died of the virus they invented and then released the illness worldwide, I don't think they're going to get the response they so desire from people's whose loved ones, friends, partners, who are dying from the disease or its innoculations that make money for pharma sources, many of which are within China's borders, and others whose fellow employees contracted the disease by way of overexposure in trying to make sure no more people in their respective countries would contract the disease. Unfortunately for China, not all their acquaintances hate America who has had their backs through hard times and famine. God blessed America, and China can't stop it, because their hatred of Christians has turned many of the Chinese people into martyrs in the Kingdom of God. I am proposing we ignore the jealous Chinese who covet our standing in the world. It's true we are not perfect, but it's also true that God has and will continue to love the people in the US who generously come to the aid of whoever is starving, whoever is grieving, whoever is dying, as we're just doing our family's job of being kind to each other and giving up assets to turn international starvation and sundry pandemics to full tummies and better health when our fabulous medical people show up to defeat human illnesses with medicine and frequently, common sense solutions to prevention of further sickness. My prayer is for world peace, and the hope that the Chinese will go for helping each other, not mowing people down on account of their beliefs in God to be good and merciful travelers while on this planet. God has blessed the world with countries who pitch in to help, to hold, and to heal those who need food, help, jobs, and reinforcement.

If you're trying to link this to Trump, you shot yourself in the foot. The accusation was China did the spy balloon thing under Trump.

Why is that cute?

What information could they get from a spy balloon that they can’t get from their satellites?

Not to mention that a balloon is easily detected and easily shot down, which is exactly what happened.

You must not have read the link.

Pompeo
Barr
Wray
Meadows
Ratcliffe
Haspel


Just to name a few of the ones at the top

His advisors made recommendations?

Yep, it sure was shot down. AFTER a highly successful mission. The intelligence they could gather from a slow-moving balloon flying at 60,000 feet is immense.

Now we learn that another Chinese balloon crashed off Hawaii.

Better imagery resolution at low altitudes.

The next balloon will have a prominent portrait of Biden on it, let them shoot it down.

I did, I didn't notice anything where the Pentagon said their balloons were flying over China....only the US.

 

[Harpy Eagle]

How pathetic.

 

[Ringo]

Blinken in the balloon situation started mooing about "international law", while it was Blinken's country that substituted this "international law" for "rules-based order". And within the framework of these "rules" the balloon itself decided where to fly.
I think the balloon was shot down because it could have dropped either American secret documents scattered by Bidon or copies of Hunter's notebooks on America...

1) What intel can they get that they can’t get from satellites? You didn’t answer this. You just repeated yourself and dropped a funny rating.

2) If they were spying on us with those balloons, then we will determine that from the wreckage and it will escalate tensions between us and China. I fail to see why they would want to do that, knowing that we could just shoot it down and determine their intentions to spy on us if that were the case. Perhaps you can address this instead of spamming funny ratings.

 

[Delldude]

How pathetic.

Most likely is more like it. They tried to cancel Him during and after the campaign. Trump was upsetting the global apple cart and had to be kept in check any way possible.....Look at most of the people He ended up with, deep stater's....think it was by accident?
