Is no one curious that there is no gun footage? We sent a $90M+ fighter and  spent a several hundred thousand $ missile to shoot down a bag....and no pics???wtf?

We have nothing from this admin.   They know they got owned by China and the public and they are too embarrassed to admit China keeps poking us in the eye.

DC is paralyzed over this shit.  This admin scares me more than china.

I would love to see you in the Bully Pulpit.

Celebrating my birthday with family tonight and ON GOD we all just saw a UFO.  North Sky here in Boise. It was a red light that was stationary in the sky, I thought it might be the comet so got my mom but remembered the comet is supposed to be green. We went outside and it started descending at changing speeds, then finally shot down below the hills very fast.

I can't explain it.  

 

Suddenly, everybody is seeing UFO's.

Must be something in the air.

Unidentified objects: What's behind the rise in aerial shootdowns?

The rise in US fighter jets shooting down unidentified aerial objects over North America is no coincidence. Instead, it comes at a time when the US and Canadian militaries have intensified their scrutiny of all flying objects in the wake of an initial 4 February shootdown of a suspected spy balloon from China. This also comes after years of military reports on mysterious objects filed under the catch-all term unidentified aerial phenomena.

“This isn’t new – we just hadn’t been detecting them in the past,” says Brynn Tannehill at the RAND Corporation, a think tank based in California. “I suspect that filters on US systems had previously been ignoring things that were too slow, high or small to be considered threats.”

US military officials have not yet publicly confirmed the origin of the flying objects beyond the original Chinese-launched surveillance balloon. But in a press conference the White House dismissed any theories about aliens being involved. “There is no indication of aliens or extra-terrestrial activity with these recent takedowns,” said Karine Jean-Pierre, a White House spokesperson.

The Pentagon had been tracking unidentified aerial phenomena witnessed by US military personnel even before the shootdowns. The US Office of the Director of National Intelligence previously found that balloons accounted for 163 of 366 phenomena – the most common explanation by far – in its 2022 annual report.

Another 26 of those phenomena were characterised as drones, and six were described as “clutter” such as birds, weather events or plastic bags.

Way back in College meteorology class At Univ of Wyo we used to launch weather balloons every year.      I suspect many private and public organizations still do.   We are blowing up students science projects ;)

With some of this stuff, you are probably right.

Absolutely....I hope our military has figured this out rather than keep chasing their white supremacist hunt.

That’s a valid concern.

For the folks that know their WWII history, from 1944-45, Japan launched 9,300 Fu-Go incendiary balloon bombs with the hope of burning down the Pacific NW.
