For me, in my humble opinion, its just another step towards going home. This administration has done nothing but show the world that our leadership is weak, a laughing stock on the world stage. "Big scary America" is no more. Agree Todd. If the Lord has us here still after the 2024 election "Tammie says, Sonya – it was a joke" Oh! Hahaha. ROFL! "It is always dangerous to just shoot in the air, you never know where the bullet might land. And yes, you are correct, I would not put it past them to have it rigged as a bomb as with the Montana one — was the blast or explosion from the aircraft that shot it down or from the balloon. Also they could very easily put some of their poison covid variance in the balloon or some other poison…" It could be any poison! They just shot down the balloon! I wonder what it left behind!! Canada Says It Is Monitoring ‘Potential Second Incident’ Linked to Chinese Alleged Spy Balloon: The Canadian Armed Forces revealed late Thursday that it is monitoring a “potential second incident” related to the discovery of a massive Chinese balloon over Montana that the Communist Party claimed had drifted off course and coincidentally landed near American military sites of high importance. The Pentagon confirmed late Thursday that it had identified what it suspected was a Chinese surveillance balloon over Montana, near an area housing nuclear missile silo fields. The Canadian government waded into the fray with a statement confirming that it is working “with American partners and continue to take all necessary measures to safeguard Canada’s sensitive information from foreign intelligence threats.” It also suggested the existence of either a second Chinese alleged spy balloon or of a second incident involving the same balloon. Ottawa has yet to provide any more details regarding the “potential second incident.” Canada’s Globe and Mail reported on Friday that the Canadian government had summoned the Chinese ambassador to protest the balloon’s presence in the country – a move that, at press time, Biden has reportedly yet to make. The Canadian newspaper of record also indicated that experts believe the same balloon over Montana may have spent significant time drifting over British Columbia, Canada, after entering Alaskan airspace. The expert, Steffan Watkins, said Canada appeared to have used its air force to intercept the balloon in late January. The balloon did not become a source of public alarm in either America or Canada until locals in Montana filmed it flying overhead. Many public officials in the United States are openly questioning the Chinese government’s explanation, particularly in light of Beijing’s history of using meteorology as an excuse to spy on and infiltrate the sovereign territory of its neighbors. Chinese officials routinely refer to illegal artificial islands that it built in the South China Sea, located in territory belonging to Vietnam and the Philippines, and their facilities as “research” or “meteorology” related. In reality, satellite images and studies of the region indicate China has built an intricate military and surveillance infrastructure in the region. Secret CCP Overseas Police Station In NYC Closed After Reported FBI Raid: “The FBI has confirmed that the ‘overseas police station’ in New York linked to Fuzhou has closed,” a State Department spokesperson said in an email to The Epoch Times. According to two reports published in October 2022 and December 2022 by Safeguard Defenders, a nonprofit organization, the overseas police outposts are used to collect intelligence and even forcibly repatriate Chinese dissidents to the mainland to be imprisoned. . . . the stations have been linked to the CCP’s United Front Work Department, an agency that works to advance the regime’s interests abroad by spreading propaganda, conducting foreign influence operations, suppressing dissident movements, gathering intelligence, and facilitating the transfer of technology to communist China. As such, many nations have voiced concern that the facilities are a threat to national security and a violation of sovereignty.
maybe it will be big scary Trump once again (so to speak.)
