Jesse Watters said Biden wanted to shoot it down but DOD said no.

Pivot to China from Ukraine? And are these really "balloons", or swamp gas, or what?
Partly kidding but, it may be time for the ultimate distraction.

I think we are going to simply watch this thing do whatever it was sent up to do without interference.

Should've been shot down before anyone even knew about it

What data is a balloon going to gather that a satellite can't?

I am not an expert on spy balloons.
What can they see from this purported spy balloon that they cannot already see from a satellite?

I guess we should check to see how many members of Congress are onboard.
Then we should shoot it down.

If they wanted to shoot it down they would.

Hell yes. It's in American airspace and isn't there for any altruistic reasons.

Spy balloon just sounds like the most delightfully Chinese thing.

Is it a rainbow pride balloon or sething?

Maybe we should send our own balloon over China and see what they do? I bet it gets the air let out with a quickness.
