Having had our own version of Uncle Joe elected in Australia recently, as our very own Rainbow Albatross, it’s obvious they have been recruited from the same three ring circus.

A very good reason not to vote. I am not responsible!

Risible rubbish and hardly worth the read. Of course, the balloon should have been shot down as soon as it entered US air space. Ditto the other UFOs.

And without any fanfare or rebuke of China. All simply written off as military exercises.

No visible means of propulsion? How about the jet stream?

It has been reliably reported that the object which shot down was a balloon which had been launched by a group of Radio Amateurs. It had previously done seven trips around the world.

Oh great lets write a story about the story they used to distract us from the real stories.

Don't write a story about Sy Hersh's Nordstream Revelations.
Don't write a story about the Ohio train derailment, the biggest environmental disaster in US history where reporters were being arrested or the state of US infrastructure.
Don't write a story about the release of names associated with Jeffrey Epstein.

Give us Marvin the Martian to keep us all as dumb as dog shite.
Maybe next week you can write another useless nothingburger story about how all these people these days aren't paying attention to the real stories and how the news media is complicit in this and their minds are like goldfishes and how all the people nowadays are as dumb as dog shite.

Hooray! Thanks for wasting my day.
And by the way, the US balloon story you opened with was a distraction story too, china's got 500 satellites with which it can read US numberplates.
The weather balloons were just that weather balloons, and most of them did not come from China.

MSM come out with a story - scream it out to everyone,
Then update and correct the details in a few days in small print when the news cycle as ended.
Pay attention.

Chinese spy balloon may have been blown off intended course – report
http://www.theguardian.com/world/2023/feb/15/japan-says-aerial-objects-spotted-in-recent-years-were-likely-chinese-spy-balloons

"The US is reportedly examining the possibility that the Chinese spy balloon was pushed off course by strong winds when it entered US airspace, having tracked it since its launch days earlier..."

"Of the four flying objects shot down by the US in recent weeks, only the first has been attributed to Chinese surveillance efforts."

"The deviation has prompted analysts to explore whether China meant for it to enter US airspace."

- ONE weather balloon, that likely went off course, and was never intended to go over the continental US"

Maybe another story you could write is:
