    “Spy Balloon” Is one of the dumbest things I’ve ever heard. What’s next? Fish with camera strapped to it?

          It would be an interesting series for sure, extreme survival in the American wilderness while being haunted by the American MIC

    The funny thing is, they managed to spot one air balloon deep into their own airspace, and struggled to shoot it down. Then, another Chinese balloon did the same.

    If these were actual enemies wanting to do damage, they probably could have lol. Embarrasing.

    How do they know these things are Chinese? Is each balloon equipped with a set of loudspeakers broadcasting the collected works of Li Bai?

      China responded. They said it did come from there, but it was just a civilian weather balloon and got to the US due to unexpected wind currents.
