White House: China Will ‘Likely’ Fly More Spy Balloons over U.S.

Ian Hanchett 6 Feb 2023

On Monday’s broadcast of “CNN Newsroom,” White House Senior Adviser for Public Engagement Keisha Lance Bottoms stated that “we know that this is not the first time and will not likely be the last time that the Chinese have sent surveillance balloons over the continental U.S., as we’ve learned.”

Bottoms said that during the State of the Union, “I think what you will hear from the President will be a number of things that are of concern to the American people…you will hear about the economy, you will hear about the President’s desire for us to work together in a bipartisan manner. And I don’t know if he will specifically address [the balloon], but what he will talk about is just the work that’s been done by this administration to restore our standing on the world stage, whether it’s competing with China for manufacturing jobs, the safety of Ukraine, the NATO alliance. So, you will hear a number of things addressed by the President, including those issues of international concern.”

She added that “we know that this is not the first time and will not likely be the last time that the Chinese have sent surveillance balloons over the continental U.S., as we’ve learned. We know that it was also done under the previous administration.”

Well, if they are below the 62-mile threshold for "space", and the Chinese didn't request - and didn't receive - permission to transit U.S. airspace, then shoot the g*d-damned things down.

Just when you though this White House couldn't act any weaker.
If a political party does not have its foundation in the determination to advance a cause that is right and that is moral, then it is not a political party; it is merely a conspiracy to seize power.

U.S. general: China likely to send more spy balloons over U.S.
 By Bill Gertz - The Washington Times - Wednesday, July 26, 2023

China’s dispatch of a suspected surveillance balloon over the United States earlier this year is likely to be repeated, the nominee to lead the Pentagon’s Northern Command told Congress on Wednesday.

Air Force Lt. Gen. Gregory M. Guillot, who also would head the North American Aerospace Defense Command, made the assessment in answer to policy questions asked by the Senate Armed Services Committee.

“The PRC will likely make similar attempts in the future to gather sensitive information that might provide a competitive advantage, including flight over sites that are critical to homeland defense,” Gen. Guillot stated, using the acronym for People’s Republic of China. “The keys to mitigating the PRC surveillance balloon threat are shared intelligence, improved domain awareness and streamlined information-sharing.” ...
Yeah, the Biden administration will get right on that.  :pigs fly:

China Will ‘Likely’ Fly More Spy Balloons over U.S. ... and ...?!

The balloons' gondolas would make for good target practice for F-15s', F-16s', or F-22s' 20 mm cannon. Or maybe F-35s' 25 mm cannon.
If, as anti-Covid-vaxxers claim, https://www.poynter.org/fact-checking/2021/robert-f-kennedy-jr-said-the-covid-19-vaccine-is-the-deadliest-vaccine-ever-made-thats-not-true/ , https://gospelnewsnetwork.org/2021/11/23/covid-shots-are-the-deadliest-vaccines-in-medical-history/ , The Vaccine is deadly, where in the US have Pfizer and Moderna hidden the millions of bodies of those who died of "vaccine injury"? Is reality a Big Pharma Shill?

Millions now living should have died. Anti-Covid-Vaxxer ghouls hardest hit.

The keys to mitigating the PRC surveillance balloon is to shoot them out of the sky and revoke China's Most Favored Nation Trade Status.
