Biden's Deep State Defenders Put Out New Official IC Lie That Chinese Spy Airships Were Always Over the US Under Trump
Note that they're saying the balloons "went undetected." They claim the balloons' existence was deduced retroactively, after they'd already gone from US airspace. This retroactive discovery is itself a very helpful retroactive discovery for Joe Biden and his evil,corrupt, and woke military leadership, who knew about the balloon for a week and tried to keep it a secret from the American People they definitely do not serve.
The report began spreading on Saturday that supposedly Chinese balloons had incurred into American airspace three times during the Trump Administration. Now, this report came right as Joe Biden was getting a lot of backlash for being slow to react and it came without any real details, allegedly from an unnamed Biden defense official. But there were no details apart from that none of the incursions were on the order of magnitude of the one this week in terms of length of time over U.S. territory. As we reported, the Trump team including President Donald Trump quickly shot the report down. Now there are more details of this story. According to a "senior administration official," it's apparently "U.S. intelligence, not the Biden administration" assessing that "PRC government surveillance balloons transited the continental U.S. briefly at least three times during the prior administration and once that we know of at the beginning of this administration, but never for this duration of time."
The official said this is "part of a larger pattern." "These balloons are all part of a PRC fleet of balloons developed to conduct surveillance operations, which have also violated the sovereignty of other countries," the official explained, adding that these activities are "often undertaken at the direction of the People's Liberation Army." The official said that over the past several years, Chinese balloons have been spotted over countries across five continents, including in East Asia, South Asia, and Europe. "Two things can be true at once: this happened and it wasn't detected," the official told Fox News Digital.
Biden knew China spy balloon was in US airspace for nearly a WEEK but kept it secret - fearing Blinken's planned meeting with Chinese President Xi Jinping in Beijing would be derailed Biden knew about the China's spy balloon before it's presence became public The president told about the existence on January 28 but he failed to act On Saturday, the balloon was finally shot down as it hovered over North CarolinaRichard Grennell says "bullsh!t, this never happened."
Republican are expressing outrage at the Biden administration's lack of transparency with the American public over the Chinese surveillance balloon that has been hovering over the US for days. The existence of the inflatable drone was first confirmed on Thursday when it was reported by the Billings Gazette after it was spotted over Montana, home to one of the US military's three nuclear missile silos. A subsequent report from Bloomberg found that the president was made aware of the balloon, and its dangerous threat, days earlier on January 28. The decision to keep the story quiet as officials were worried the hysteria caused by the balloon would derail Secretary of State Antony Blinken's upcoming meeting with Chinese President Xi Jinping. ... Republican Rep. Nicole Malliotakis told DailyMail.com 'Communist China's surveillance balloon violates international law and threatens our homeland. It's an outrage that the Biden Administration spotted this balloon days ago as it was flying over the Aleutian Islands and did nothing about it.' The recently reelected congresswoman added: 'The president has not even made a comment about this unacceptable act of aggression by the CCP, 'Whether it's our border or air space, Congress must take action to protect it, because it's clear this President won't,' she continued. While the House Judiciary GOP Twitter account tweeted: 'Joe Biden knew the Chinese spy balloon was coming. Tried to hide it from the American people. Let it fly across the ENTIRE COUNTRY.' The message added: 'And only after the entire country begged him to act, our great military shot it down. Embarrassing. Scary. Sad.'
Richard Grenell
@RichardGrenell Feb 5 Biden's DoD is shamelessly using an anonymous source to say that Chinese balloons flew over the US under Trump - and the Trump team allowed it. It is a lie. We never heard this - ever. Congress should demand @SecDef tell the truth. Shame on @JakeSullivan46 And shame on the DC media activists who continue to allow the Biden team to be so weak by giving them aid & comfort in their lies and weakness. @jonkarl @maggieNYT @JuliePace lead the coverup. @RichardGrenell Ask yourself why @jonkarl would quote an anonymous official when every senior national security official in the Trump Administration is on the record saying Jon Karl is wrong. @abc has a serious credibility problem with Karl.
Former Director of National Intelligence John Ratcliffe also says this simply never happened.
Here is former Director of National Intelligence John Ratcliffe, telling @MariaBartiromo the Trump-era Chinese balloon incursions claimed by an unnamed Biden administration official did not happen: https://t.co/741fPoaZ9A

It’s a hard no from me.
— Richard Grenell (@RichardGrenell) February 6, 2023
The entire Biden team has been lying and are now scrambling to get help in the coverup.
You shouldn’t have believed their anonymous source tale in the first place. https://t.co/gsYcaTtzeL
Now you understand the beauty of the anonymous Woke Army official claiming "We didn't detect the balloons, we just figured out they had entered the country after they'd left the country." They have an explanation as to why Grennell and Ratcliffe were never briefed about these alleged balloons. They can say, These things happened, as we are anonymously claiming, but we never briefed you about it, because we didn't actually ever detect the balloons when they were actually present, but only figured it out later. Later, as in, in the past week, perhaps? Meanwhile, NeverTrump is having a normal one. Bill Kristol, who, poignantly, is himself blimb-shaped and the size of three schoolbuses, and also poses a Threat to Ground should he stumble and fall, says that MAGA people would support the surveillance airship if it were more racist.
Should Biden have personally climbed into an F-22 & led the attack on the balloon like the president in “Independence Day”? Should he have launched nukes in retaliation? The GOP didn’t have a clear alternatives but that did not stop their hyperventilating. https://t.co/3BiOVaMqaD
— Max Boot 🇺🇦🇺🇸 (@MaxBoot) February 6, 2023
China's so afraid of Bill Kristol's and Max Boot's paymaster they're threatening retaliation over his belatedly ordering the shoot-down of a provocative surveillance airship. Your daily reminder that NeverTrump supported Biden, they said, to restore America's place of respect and leadership on the world stage. But really it's because they're liberal f*****s and they wanted money.
China responds with a threat after U.S. shoots down balloon After a Chinese balloon was discovered flying high in the sky in the U.S., the military shot down the balloon with a missile over South Carolina on Saturday. China responded to the military action threatening to "take further actions" and said it would be responding to "an obvious overreaction and a serious violation of international practice," Associated Press reported.

1) Three Chinese spying balloons flew over portions of the US during the Trump Administration.
2) We only discovered this after Biden took office.
3) It's still Trump's fault for allowing the Chinese balloons to fly over the US, even if he didn't know about it.
The more likely possibility:
4) The Pentagon knew about the balloons, but General Milley refused to tell the Trump Administration about them.
They were a bunch of warmongers, after all.

Then they said it was just a weather balloon. Nothing to worry about. Why shoot it down at all then?
Then they said they only detected it in MT.
But now we know they tracked it from China.
Then they said they couldn't shoot it down for fear of debris hitting people.
But, they saw it in US airspace over the Artic Ocean. And vast swaths of MT and the rest of the states it went over are unpopulated.
It's been one lie after another but the media has snapped up every new lie as true.
Posted by: People's Hippo Voice at February 06, 2023 03:23 PM (FvKrM)
One of three things must be true:
1. This is all a lie, and balloon incursions (my 2023 bingo card is already shot to hell) weren't happening under Trump
2. The former president and his senior officials are lying. They did know about it but chose not to disclose it or engage in any action against the incursion
3. The intelligence and/or military complexes chose not to brief the president or his senior officials about the violation of our airspace by a foreign rival
There is *no* good story to be told here. The only question is "who is the villain?" If it's true, my money's on a door other than number two.

1) Three Chinese spying balloons flew over portions of the US during the Trump Administration.
2) We only discovered this after Biden took office.
3) It's still Trump's fault for allowing the Chinese balloons to fly over the US, even if he didn't know about it.
The more likely possibility:
4) The Pentagon knew about the balloons, but General Milley refused to tell the Trump Administration about them.
They were a bunch of warmongers, after all.

If so, that's insanely stupid. Keeping it secret so Blinking can turn the screws on Xi and make demands or else we'll expose their little surveillance op and shoot it out of the sky in a tremendous marketing operation that will also find its way into Red China as open propaganda, though would be a foolish but rational explanation if the Xi meeting had anything to do with it.

If this had happened under a Trump admin. two things would have happened 1) Trump would have had it shot down in glorious fashion with himself on-site and the event televised, along with the Marine band playing the "Battle Hymn of the Republic" sung by the Mormon tabernacle Choir. 2) Marxist heads would be exploding at the evil, saber rattling Trump.

When Trump was POTUS son #3 was a helicopter pilot on the Reagan. On one cruise a pigeon had followed the ship from port, was found by some sailors and was adopted. The intelligence people got wind of that and confiscated the bird to see if it did in fact have any hidden electronics inside it. It didn't and the captain ordered the bird released. The sailors took it to the front of the carrier and dutifully released it. Said bird, totally not a spy, immediately flew to aft of the ship where my son was winding up the MH-60 to take off and the bird became pate ruining the rotors.

The improvement curve on dirigibles was flat, while airplanes was spiking into increased speed and safety.
VTOL and hovering were advantages, fuel usage might be less due to not needing to constantly move forward.
The need for large landing fields and huge sheds to protect the things were serious issues. Obviously dirigibles are far more susceptible to wind than a plane by surface.
I remember seeing a film after a liftoff where about 4-5 men were taken up to high altitude on the guide ropes until they fell off one by one. Never happened on a plane.

That is unfair to former Pres. Trump. He expected the Flag officers to obey the chain of command. It wasn't until close to the end of his term that we learned that the Flag officers were insubordinate.
I know I didn't expect the "perfumed princes" in the Pentagon to prefer allowing Antifa to run rampant, burning, looting and killing, rather than obey Pres. Trump but that's what happened.

Do we have no machine gun capabilities for high altitude planes? From the video it looked like they hit right at the ballast point and separated the cables from the balloon, leaving the instruments to free fall. I would have much preferred a couple holes in the balloon so it could drift down.

There is NO FUCKING WAY that the US did not know about this or any other balloon like it crossing US airspace. There are tons of radar looking for planes, missiles, satellites, and anything else. You could see this from the ground and you think all our radars missed it?
No, the past balloons either did not exist, or only barely touched US airspace and the military felt it was no bid deal and not worth making a federal case over.

“The Victim in this case was targeted for exercising the rights to which every American citizen is entitled. The Victim publicized the Iranian Government's human rights abuses; discriminatory treatment of women; suppression of democratic participation and expression; and use of arbitrary imprisonment, torture, and execution,” said Attorney General Merrick B. Garland. “The Department of Justice will not tolerate attempts by an authoritarian regime to undermine those protections and the rule of law upon which our democracy is based. We will not tolerate attempts by a foreign power to threaten, silence, or harm Americans.

You could see the dang balloon standing on the ground in the US. There's NO WAY balloons would have traversed CONUS over a full week (which this one took) and NO ONE NOTICED.

It's not like we have old school aerial observers out anymore...I'm sure most detection is done via radar...which I have to assume a big-ass balloon would register on. Maybe pilots would report it, too, to ATC, which would make its way to the NSA.

I've spotted a balloon going over ... had my zoom lens to figure out what it was ... could tell it was a weather (type) balloon. Could probably now tell if it was a China spy balloon (though might have spotted those big black panels this one had).

Every advanced military in the world is working on this GPS substitution technology - including us, but only the PLA is actively magnetically mapping the earth. The magnetic maps allow them to correct the terminal flight of smart weapons operating without GPS.
The PLA are using balloons for this mapping because vibrating metal on aircraft introduces unacceptable errors into the MAD signals. these new quantum magnetometers are several orders of magnitude more sensitive than anything used previously, but not able to produce sufficient resolution from a satellite due to the Van Allen radiation belt.
The Chinese have only had functional quantum-enhanced rubidium atomic magnetometers for about two years, so these PLA balloon overflights did not occur during the Trump Administration.

May God protect us. Even though Shambling Joe has the instincts and intellect of cottage cheese, some of our adversaries might still have a some reservations about full on adventurism against the US, given the veneer of gravitas from such a long tenure in the Senate, and Biden just being of a certain generation.
But our adversaries, being the full-on racists and misogynists that America haters project onto America, would undoubtedly have zero respect for our Historic First VP from Day One, precisely because of her First Historic-ness. We'd be immediately tested, everywhere and hard. And I could only see KH failing to grasp the situation, issuing nonsensical, dithering and contradictory orders, blaming her staff while fleets or cities disappeared in smoke. A clusterf*ck of nation-destroying potential.

Joe says a lot of things and likes threats, but he has no balls and I really doubt he would have approved. He only said that because it was discussed and he was being a bully.
The Poles, however. The only thing they hate worse than the Germans are the Russians. This was vital to their security, and it was right in their back yard. And they have balls.

When the DoD was first asked this very question they said the balloon was made using a very stealthy coating.
The only public evidence available that I have seen suggests the Billings man was first to see it, and the DoD was totally defensive in their early responses.

1. it's racist to shoot down the balloon
2. it's a good balloon
3. we're not sure it's a balloon
4. the military said not to shoot down the balloon
5. It's impossible to shoot down the balloon
6. we shot down the ballooon, ooowwwahhh, we're big boys.
7. you know, trump had many balloons.
8. actually trump was so bad, the military didn't even want to tell him about the balloon.
9. no, trump was so bad that the balloons didn't even go over american airspace.
10. hey, there's a white supremacist

Kamala's main defect, from their point of view is that she is *less* dependent on them physically and not necessarily smart enough to go along if the wrong person gets her ear. Plenty of 'powers behind the throne' have lost their position due to someone else getting control of the puppet and having them removed/executed.

There's lying, and then there's believable lying...this one fails the latter...
That's my position too. The balloon was easily visible to people on the ground as long as there weren't clouds in the way. So they're lying about there having been multiple balloons during the Trump administration.

one of the famous UFO incidents, where a pilot was sent to pursue a UFO in a Mustang and crashed, was because an airbase nearby was launching secret Skyhook balloons and people saw them. Pilot had no oxygen, blacked out and crashed.
Even though explained totally on both ends, UFO books bring this up as unexplained for many decades later, probably still do.

"actually, it turns out that trump had many balloons that were only detected after his presidency when we went through it with a fine tooth comb using a Binger enhancement technique. We believe this shows a felony could've possibly been committed by not detecting this and we're empaneling a special counsel and a grand jury in downtown Seattle composed of pink haired, top-surgery mentats."

The balloon itself might have been some ancient chinese secret, but the goldola under it and the giant solar arrays sticking out of it have the radar cross-section of a 747 viewed from the side.
