Evidently, there was a balloon drifting over Montana. A Chinese balloon. Whut?
WASHINGTON – A Chinese spy balloon has been spotted drifting over the northern United States, and Pentagon officials have considered shooting it down, Defense Department officials said late Thursday.
Okay, so why not just shoot it down?
The decision not to shoot down the balloon was made because of concerns that debris could injure Americans on the ground or destroy property, according to a senior Defense Department official who briefed reporters on condition of anonymity
Okay, this story is officially weird now.

How to tell when someone is lying to you....
Yes, the debris could have fallen on a wolf or an endangered owl. THEN we would reap the consequences.
I'm wondering if this is just a distraction ploy. Keep the attention up there, while some WMD like a suitcase bomb or three is being smuggled in along the southern border, far from the balloon. Certainly resources are focused on the balloon.
The payload is the size of several busses. New delivery system for EMP?
It was just China coming to pick up more documents
Trump would have shot it down before the public even knew it was up there. He would have been like, "Yea, there was a Chinese spy balloon over America, so we shot it down."
Just saying...
You gotta remember that Ge. Mark (I'll warn China before we attack) Miley is head of the JCS.
And Mr . 10% for the Big Guy is CIC...
A Governor can't make the decision to shoot it down? Anyone local, hazard to air navigation?
Why a balloon? Payload? Just to mess with us?
