The FAA has issued a ground stop at Myrtle Beach International, Charleston International and Wilmington airports. The Chinese spy balloon drifted over the Upstate and Western North Carolina Saturday morning. Video captured by 7News shows the object high in the sky over the Blue Ridge Mountains.

Biden knew about the spy balloon but kept in under wraps because he didn't want Blinkin cancelling his CCP arse kissing visit.

Never mind what data it collected. Or installations it flew over. Or what possibly could be recovered at a crash site. Nope. Ignore ALL that and instead pick the safest, most remote, least likely to yield OUR military and CIA guys any chance to find useful information - preferably over salt water - THEN shoot it down.

US air defense did not know there was a balloon til a commercial plane pilot told them. That is why it did not shot it down earlier.
Canada protested to China 5 days later after news broke out. This shows Canadian did not know the balloon either.
in 2021, the balloon was flying in several cities in Japan. The Japanese thought the balloon was used by local cities workers. Then the balloon disappeared and nobody talked about it any more.
This shows you how bad the air defense system is in several most advanced countries.

if the remnants of the balloon lands in someone's woods. How long before the men in black arrive?
also in the video of the shoot down I posted ;there is a blinking light on a mini mini parachute?

What is the CIA doing with F-22s?
why use F-22s? F-15s can fly as high as necessary (65,000 officially but F-15 pilots will tell you, off the record, they can fly much higher) and have a great cannon.
F-22s are overkill by a lot

What are the chances China will retrieve the debris before the US? And is there any worthwhile debris to collect or was it destroyed?

Sidewinder is a heat-seeking missile. I’m calling bullshite that it was a Sidewinder.

Go with data on how to do that.

One of the worst takes I’ve heard so far.

How do you think weapons systems work?

JUST IN - The US Navy have already gathered up most of the debris. They just released the last transmitted image while the balloon traveled through South Carolina.

frick China and frick Biden for allowing this to go on as long as it did. Shoot it out of the sky as soon as it crosses US airspace. The cost of doing so be damned, you don’t allow this shite to be tolerated from any country.
The President is sworn to protect this country. Do your damn job.
There isn’t a Hell hot enough for that bastard and his administration.

Yeah not only do we wait until it’s completed its mission and is off the coast after traversing the continent we blast a fricking missile right through the equipment. Instead of taking out the balloon to keep the equipment intact and recoverable we blast the equipment into a million pieces.
Incompetence of the highest order. Almost makes you think we were in on it and they’re covering their tracks. Until you remember they’re all retarded.

Send an F-22 after it so the Chi-Coms get good intel on the radar signature of an inbound Raptor before their intel equipment is splashed. Icing on the cake that Biden has been serving up to the CCP for at least a decade.
It's time to impeach this f***er. Queen Kamala-mala is a freaking idiot, but I don't think she's willingly and overtly supplying intelligence to foreign governments like Biden and his family and cohorts.
My congressman has already received my letter. Unfortunately, any letters to either of my senators from Georgia will probably fall on deaf ears.

I thought maybe it was first shot at at 58,000 then again shot at?

Senior US military official says 1 air to air missile fired by F22 at 58,000 feet (an A9X missile) brought down China spy balloon. The balloon was at 60-65,000 feet when shot.
