What do you mean? We give them foreign aid so we are paying for their party balloons too.

Last few years has taught me if the press is chasing a shiny object like party streamers and balloons, it's a diversion from something stupid they don't want us angry over.
Anything that boosts the trillions spent on planes that went over budget but lined pockets seems to make the news. Hooray we shot down a balloon, what's the battle economics 100,000 to 1....

Like classified documents at a garage sale? Classic redirect.
All these balloon things have the country looking at them! What's going on elsewhere that should have everyone's attention?????

"The Federal Aviation Administration has abruptly canceled a "national defense airspace" over part of Lake Michigan, the organization announced Sunday."

Yep, 75 plus years ago, Harry S. Truman, gave a bit less air time, after he sent in a couple B-29's to drop a final sayonara boys, out of the hatches to bring an end to WWII.. Kinda makes ya wonder, all this fanfare, and smoke screenD logistics , to a bunch of 1/2 baked, wandering, yard sale, busted balloons. Ya couldn't make it up , to be be any less believable.

$20k balloons or $3mil AMRAAM missile to shoot them down…..which side runs out of money/will/resources first?
I wonder if Ukraine would let us start launching our own balloons to float over China? Are the weather patterns correct?

Remember when Rumsfield said there was 3 trillion dollars missing? Then the twin towers come down...
Think they used to call that cookN the books
Wonder why it didn't bounce off the 60' x 10' solar panel array hanging off the bottom? You would think that would make a good solid surface.
