Apparently, the Chinese surveillance airship has been taken out of commission inside the 12-mile range of U.S. territorial waters on the South Carolina Atlantic coast.
Delivering remarks to the press pool, Joe Biden confirmed the Chinese dirigible was taken down. According to his statement, Biden ordered the airship to be shot down last Wednesday (lol sure), but the military advised him to wait until it crossed the U.S. and could be taken down over water.
Several U.S. jet fighters were seen circling the coastline, and the FAA had shut down the airspace above the Atlantic near Myrtle Beach prior to the operation to remove or destroy the surveillance airship.

That’ll show ‘em.
Made a significant portion of our country look like Karens……
Brilliant strategy, wait until it’s over water so it’s contents will never be known and we can continue to speculate with no data just what it was and what it was doing. Any guesses?
Well now isn’t that a surprise they now say they think that China will reach the debris before we do.?
But never fear our side prevented them from transmitting the data back to China. Fun and games?
Apparently the American public being in an uproar, forced the decision with or without Biden’s approval
A Constitutional Republic, where the government’s job is to serve the will of the people. Savor the moment folks, as this is how it’s supposed to work. What we say, they do.
Which means we should have hissy fits more often along with giving ridicule
“… where the government’s job is to serve the will of the people … What we say, they do”
What a charmingly naive delusion
Do you also have little bluebirds merrily chirping away all the time in your world?
“……this is how it’s supposed to work.”
You missed an important point with your editing. I’m well aware of our government’s accidental, and more often than not intentional failings.
I am not so cynical to understand EXACTLY what you meant. We make what ought to be, what is. This is a never ending challenge. And it always starts with describing what ought to be.
God Bless America
Nah, the public was fascinated with it. Sorry to see it go.
“Fascinated” is not the word I would use to describe the situation. If you want another one to be fascinated with, there have been no reports/updates on the one in Latin America for 13-17 hours or so.
i think americans were pissed – real Americans that is.
The public was OBSESSED with the guessing and it was getting tiresome.
7 days later or so after it traversed the whole country surveilling and transmitting the data back to China.
What a f##*ing joke!
The entire government and senior leadership of the military are incompetent, traitors, or both!!
Ha – this comment appeared just after I typed mine.
I’m honored to be thinking along the same lines as this particular commenter! 😉
DITTO!!
Just about to type the same thing. China’s already gotten all the intel they needed so the balloon being taken down now doesn’t mean anything.
COMRADE! What are you doing noticing such things?!
What are you doing writing lies about our glorious, peace-loving People’s Democratic Republic of Ameriduh under the error-free and all-fair leadership of Comrade Mao-Tse Biden?!!!
Doncha know, “I give you my word as a Biden,” is written in concrete. No room for critics.
On target, B.K. Balloon shot down after it collected all the intelligence info
it wanted and transmitted it back to China.
That’s why the Big Guy gets his 10%.
With the job completed, Xi allows Joe to destroy the balloon so ‘You can rook strong at your state of the union address’.
JoeBama gave it the Cornpop treatment.
Interesting stragety (for all you fans if Bugs Bunny) there. Let it travel entirely across the continental Unite States THEN shoot it down. AFTER it collected all the information the ChiComs needed.
Looks like I’ve been foiled again!
I found that in a discussion where people are just sticking the decals on instead of repairing the dent
I LOLd, as the kids say
Wile e coyote was one of my favorite cartoons as a kid! Those, as they say, were the Good Old Days!
Better than Charlie Brown and the football…just sayin’
Advised to wait?
Wait until it had traveled across the entire USA and gathered/transmitted all the data it wanted before stopping?
What a brilliant strategy… /s
Yes, advised to wait by his Chinese handlers.
General Mi Li
I understand that the Chinese embassy brought Milley an order of
Kung Pao Chicken to say thank you. But NO fortune coolie.
Joey let’s them get all the data over 3000 miles of the continent. Then destroys it after mission for Chinese is accomplished. The check is in the mail Joey. Thanks.
US DOJ freeze, seize, transfer. Long range weapons aimed at Crimea. China spy balloon in Cyprus. U/1 (rumble.com)
At the 22.45 min mark Alex Christoforou discusses the balloon. Do watch it to the end of this segment. There is even a balloon in Cyprus over his left shoulder. Fancy that.
I think this is all being concocted (among some future make-believe provocations the US will point at China) to justify another US war since Ukraine is clearly on its last leg.
It is speculated that if we are gonna do a war with China, it needs to happen by 2024 because of the upcoming election. Let’s watch and see if the neocons continue to ramp up the rhetoric in the upcoming months. Personally I don’t see us going to war with them, but with this gang of thieves, you can never know.
I was thinking this way until the information that it was definitely a Chinese balloon and not home grown. This isn’t simply a false flag or a distraction. It’s serious.
I follow truth backed by facts, not some balloon distractions.
58 minute’s worth of each one’s time.
Thanks for that. But we already knew this.
We have known about the committee of 300 for a very long time. King Charles is head of the round table as always.
This whole story is STRANGE. If it was a threat why did they even let it in US airspace?
If it was spying then the military can listen to whatever is being transmitted…what did they hear?
Because it was ours. Now we have to figure out why.
“I give you my word as a Biden…I’m not a “foreign agent.”
Makes sense. The Bidens can only be brought to justice by God, and that will probably happen after they die.
Not true, congress can take him out.
Sheesh. If it were ours, why would the Chinese be saying it was one of their rogue weather balloons? Wouldn’t it make more sense for them to keep quiet? As is currently going around, “C’mon, man!”
it was not ours
it was the Chinese and they admitted it
called it a weather balloon
and one has to be very dumb to believe that
Well, very dumb to believe it was a weather balloon especially after some “general” said it was carrying a payload.
Joe is a foreign agent. But, this balloon originated in China and was made in China. Calling it a false flag is a stretch, seems more like the real deal to me.
They heard nothing. They were listening to Moochelle Obama read from her book instead of doing their job.
Just in time for the Sunday Morning propagandists to fawn over COOTUS’ bold and decisive leadership while advertising electronics frothing with spyware.
Clearly the “Chinese Spy Balloon” discovery was a totally organic event that was in no way exploited to shore up one sagging interventionist adventure and lay the groundwork for the next one.
Dang, gonna miss the balloon…
😉

Don’t fret. They have some more psyops lined up for us.
Remember, Miley told the Chinese “he would let them know first” & ” He would
not let Trump get crazy”
They don’t need a balloon they got Miley!
Monorchid Potato shamed into action talks tough like the Midget of Kiev.
Total incompetence. Impeach this imbecile.
How’s the effort to clean up elections going?
Glad you asked. See that balloon?
Everyone sing…
“Up, up and away, in my beautiful barroon. Way up in the sky in my Chinese-made barroon!…”
I just figured the government would wait until it was over a Southern state so whatever toxic sludge was in there would infect us horrible rotten southerners.
That being the case, I should be right in the thick of it, but I’m still here. Sorry.
In that case, it was OUR balloon.
It was not our balloon… though we do have surveillance balloons according to Monkey Werks…
A meteorologist tracked it back to point of originL
It was launched specifically in a western chinese high altitude region IN A SPECIFIC WEATHER PATTERN, to give it the highest probability of riding the jet stream over a US CONUS track that is of interest to CCP military.
the real question many are not asking:
how many “balloons” were launched in or around the same time line that did not “make it”…
said differently: was the southern latin american “balloon” a bad shot?
(reason: there really is no valuable military intelligence gathering in latin america..certainly nothing that rise to any sort of threat to CCP…hmmm?)
God Bless America
No, the real f*king question is why the hell did the military not take the balloon out over the Pacific before it entered US territorial airspace?
Especially, since some general or something said it had a f*king payload, which means it was armed. It was not a weather balloon.
It was also a message to Biden et al. If Congress can’t remove Biden from office over THIS. What exactly can they do other than harrass the plebes?
Thanks for the info.
that’s not hard to believe. it should be totally clear to any sentient American that our government is doing everything in their power to destroy us and the country.
They share the same Victorian wet dream of transcendent wealth, control and Empire.
Just in the nick of time for all the Sunday Talk Shows.
State of the Union. Now joe can try and look tough.
Did they really shoot down the balloon over South Carolina, or was that an American-made decoy?
Honestly, I wouldn’t put it past Biden and co. to fake this.
If they were to have faked it then they would’ve used a live missile to get rid of the evidence. They punched a hole in it and it fell just offshore in shallow water for easy retrieval. I watched the whole thing from my front porch.
They have satellite humint and electronic spying up the wazoo.
The barroon is not primary intelligence gathering oriented. It is a delivery device not a ‘pick up’ device.
Not to mention that huge new bureaucracy Space Force.
As Russia prepares to crush it in Ukraine, food plants continue to spontaneously combust, hunter admits his laptop is his, and Project Veritas further exposes bigFarm, this balloon crap floats in & has conveniently sucked up all the fake news air…
A lot of us can walk and chew gum at the same time.
Yes, the timing is likely to provide cover for other issues, but in my opinion, both the balloon exercise and the Hunter laptop reveal the Biden’s are CCP agents. Project Veritas reveals that big pharma is complicit in the deaths of millions. All of the above indicate enemy action.
Better Russia squashes Ukraine now without using nukes than later by using nukes.
Or pick a few random names from the phone book. Higher quality personnel for sure.
Miley was supposedly one of the Generals that talked Joe Diapers out of having it shot down.
This is the same general that went behind President Trump’s back and was working back room deals with the Chinese.
According to the current narrative, COOTUS wanted it shot down immediately,over land. The Pentagon wanted it shot down over water, because of the risks posed by fall debris.
If that is true, the takeaway is the Pentagon advised the White House to not do something stupid, or at the very least wait for a better opportunity. I consider that different from what Milley did to Trump on a number of issues, including the backdoor talks with Chinese officials and having a military convey ready to enter Syria the moment of COOTUS’ inauguration, and within scope of the JCOS’ advisory role.
I would agree with you, if it were not for the FACT that the Pentagon KNEW this balloon was coming while it was still over the Pacific and had not yet entered US airspace, more than a week ago. Plenty of time to figure it out.
So…..if they just shot down the balloon over the Atlantic, what was the explosion and debris coming down in Billings, Mo?
That was yesterday.
and we were told it didn’t happen.
At the time we were being told the balloon was over Missouri.
🤷🏻♀️
It happened. Perhaps a test (Very small) blast which could be translated to into a potential large
EMP explosion to fry our electrical grid. Don’t need atomic bombs. Use biological weapons,
poison water supplies, EMP to fry the grid, etc.
China is only following what Sun-Tzu stated in the 5th century, BC. The master stated,
“Go on the offense against a vulnerable enemy.” And with our current “Leadership,” we
are very vulnerable. The balloon fiasco proves it.
The area was very much Billings Montana looking.
I have no clue what the explosion was. I do think others had to
have noticed, if it was that bright. I don’t know.
I do know I don’t trust anything being reported.
By the way, are you in Montana, by chance?
Apparently, that might be a video of something that happened in the UK a while back.
Still waiting to see if that pans out. But Montana says there was no explosion…
Report from local sheriff:
https://www.kulr8.com/news/another-object-has-been-spotted-in-the-sky-over-the-billings-area/article_ccacbd16-a429-11ed-ad17-b380aa32a87c.html
“UPDATE: 9:45 PM
Sheriff Mike Linder says the sheriff’s office has made contact with the woman who shared the video of the object over Billings late Friday afternoon.
Linder says while they believe the video is legitimate, it is difficult to tell what exactly is seen in the video.
He goes on to say that there is no evidence that an aircraft went down or that there was an actual explosion over Billings.
The Sheriff says there have been no other reports from anyone to law enforcement who may have seen the incident.
He says the Sheriff’s Office will continue to investigate any additional leads or information.”
Linder’s covering.
I trust ad rem’s questions a LOT more than FJB-crew’s answers-
whatewver Milley/says, suspect the opposite…
P45 is USA’s president ! Who is FJB working for ? ( answer is pretty CLEAR)
Yup.
I don’t believe a word from the “official” sources.
An anti-balloon missile that went wrong?
Install a clown, expect a circus
hence the balloons
The look on the Governor of Montana while he was on Tucker looked very legitimate.
Truly, that looks like the jet trail of a fighter that hit his afterburners. There was no explosion (the video cam overexposed a couple of times). People reported an explosion, but more likely it was a sonic boom.
Remember that something travelling away from you looks like something coming down, when it’s not.
Good points.
With the mockingbird media setting this narrative and pointing at China….
makes me wonder what event is being planned that they want us to assume it was China…
the scapegoat is ready.

Surprise! Shady Communist China Firm Financially Involved in Biden’s Luxury Camp for Illegal Alien Children in North Carolina; Chinese Took Over School’s Board in 2019

By Kristinn Taylor
Published July 9, 2022 at 2:10pm
The 100 acre, $84 million luxury campus of the American Hebrew Academy in Greensboro, North Carolina, site of the Biden administration’s five-year lease for a new camp for illegal alien migrant children, is being backed by a communist Chinese company, Puxin Limited, that loaned the school $26 million dollars in 2019 and continues to be a lender to this day. Top ranking academy board members were replaced by Chinese figures after the 2019 loan, according to reports. Two months ago the New York Stock Exchange suspended trading in Puxin and moved to delist the firm.
A September 19, 2019 press release by Puxin Limited announced the loan.

BEIJING, Sept. 19, 2019 /PRNewswire/ — Puxin Limited (NYSE: NEW) (“Puxin” or the “Company”), a successful consolidator of the after-school education industry in China, today announced that it has entered into a loan agreement, deed of trust note and other ancillary documents with American Hebrew Academy, Inc. (“AHA”), a North Carolina non-for-profit corporation, pursuant to which Puxin extended a loan in a principal amount of US$26 million to AHA to fund its operations of an international college prep boarding school in North Carolina, the United States. The loan bears an interest rate of 18.0% per annum and becomes due on September 6, 2020. The loan is secured by AHA’s interest in certain real property located in North Carolina.
About Puxin Limited
Puxin Limited (“Puxin” or the “Company”) is a successful consolidator of the after-school education industry in China. Puxin has a strong acquisition and integration expertise to effectively improve education quality and operational performance of acquired schools. Puxin offers a full spectrum of K-12 and study-abroad tutoring programs designed to help students achieve academic excellence, as well as prepare for admission tests and applications for top schools, universities and graduate programs in China and other countries. The Company has developed a business model effectively combining strategic acquisitions and organic growth achieved through successful post-acquisition integration, which has differentiated the Company from other after-school education service providers in China.
Judicial Watch reported the positions taken by the Chinese:
“The American Hebrew Academy has deep Chinese connections, according to records uncovered by Judicial Watch. Its president, vice president and treasurer are Ni Zhang, Shong Gao, and Wei Yang. A few months after closing in the fall of 2019, the school took out a $26 million mortgage from Puxin, a Chinese education company. It planned to open under a new name, but never did. The money HHS is paying in rent will likely be used to pay back the Chinese company.”
WFMY-TV reported at the time in 2019 the Puxin deal involved more than a loan:
Public records available with the Guilford County Register of Deeds show that on Monday, September 9, American Hebrew Academy (AHA) transferred financial liability of its 100-acre property in Greensboro NC, to Puxin Limited, a publicly-traded Beijing-based firm. The documents were prepared in Orange County and signed an notarized by a Durham County Notary Public on September 6th.
Puxin Limited is a Chinese K-12 after-school educational services provider based in Beijing. The Company offers study-abroad tutoring programs that help students to prepare for admission tests and applications for top schools, universities, and graduate programs. The documents also showed Puxin entered a lease agreement with AHA and the Deed of Trust amount of $26 million.
Excerpt from Floridian Press:
After securing the loan from Puxin, AHA went through a similar restructuring and rebranding process. Ditching the religious aspect, it renamed itself AHA International School — a secular college preparatory high school geared toward international students. It announced its anticipated reopening for the 2020-21 year.
A source familiar with the transition rebukes claims that Puxin’s role was strictly financial in nature. Puxin was deeply involved in the rebranding efforts and may have even pushed for the school to reserve 1/3 of its future student population for Chinese students.
Just as Puxin issued the loan, 8 AHA board members either stepped down or were removed.
Ni Zhang, Shong Gao, and Wei Yang stepped in to serve in the highest ranking roles.
The school’s registered agent on its business registration documents changed from former CEO Glenn Drew to a woman named Qinghua Zhao.
Puxin’s financial records to its shareholders indicate the company’s income from the interest-bearing loan increased drastically from 2018 to 2019 as well as from 2019 to 2020 and attributed the growth to AHA.
William Scarborough, who oversees AHA’s property and represents the board did not respond to requests for the names of current board members but did confirm Puxin refinanced the school’s debt in 2019 when it was the verge of default. He also confirmed that Puxin remains a lender to the school.
North Carolina’s eight Republican Congressmen, Richard Hudson, Ted Budd, Madison Cawthorn, Patrick McHenry, Virginia Foxx, Dan Bishop, Richard Rouzer and Gregory Murphy have been raising a stink about the Biden administration’s plans to house illegal alien children at the luxury campus.
The Washington Examiner reported Friday the Biden administration signed a no-bid contract worth $177 million with New York-based Deployed Resources to manage up to 1,100 illegal alien children and underage teenagers in the lap of luxury at the academy.

Replace * with :
“Days ago”, Joe? And they didn’t obey the Commander-in-chief?
“Go ahead” and “Do it right now” do not mean the same thing.
It is entirely possible the authorization was given on Wednesday with discretion to carry out the action when appropriate, and the media factions are spinning.
Either way doesn’t matter to me, biden gives permission to destroy on Feb 1. I read elsewhere the balloon breached US airspace on January 28th. So, it took the braintrust 4 days to determine the balloon must be eliminated?
Too hokey for me.
Indeed, the military KNEW of its approach long before Jan 28th. It takes a long time for a balloon to cross the Pacific. The military should have requested and received permission to shoot it down before it entered US airspace. This is totally hokey.
Who in the MSM will be the first to cheerfully praise China that “they’ve gone green”.
“China’s spy surveillance has gone green”
The environmentally friendly balloon completely disengages upon hitting water.
What Heroes!
haha
After all Sigint and Military installation mapping completed.
Check’s in the mail Big Guy.
Only my opinion, but I believe this balloon was nothing more than a way to stick it to Joe Biden. As an added bonus, demoralize our Military and hand Tony Blinken his butt for a second time. I could be wrong, maybe
Better late than never. Gee once someone invents low earth orbit satellites, and the internet, than data can be uploaded in real time from “weather ballons” to the satellites. But thats a long way off in the future. For now Joey Showers With Kids will have to settle for interrogating the little man in there with the stone tablet and chisel/ hammer. These Bolsheviks really think the American people are stupid.
And how many military bases to it go over?
The Keystone Cops masquerading as our Government and military have captured the empty getaway car.
Film at 11.
lol “BREAKING NEWS” or something
After receiving the orders to shoot it down, General Milley immediately called his cohort in China to get approval.
Days later- it was approved. Gosh! Thanks China!
FYI- Under President Trump
Milley admits he would tell Chinese general if US launched an attack
https://nypost.com/2021/09/29/milley-admits-he-would-tell-china-if-us-launched-an-attack/
Now —about those Biden Family documents.
Mighty Joe Biden, he huffed and he puffed and he blew that existential threat balloon down!
Might Joe doesn’t huff and puff at his prey, he sniffs and paws at it.
Yup. The US has become a total laughingstock.
Important to understand that China makes the bulk of our transformers for our power grid along with Germany.
THIS is a very critical thing to understand.
It takes 2 years to get one of those transformers shipped in. We don’t make them domestically.
Some alert people have been screaming from the rooftops about this for at least 10 years.
An EMP exploded at the correct height in the correct spot would fry the power grid over most of the continent.
Loss of those key transformers would then take out 90 percent of the US population through starvation, violence, and disease in less than 12 months.
China and Russia have both hardened their power grid against such an attack.
FERC just says it’s too expensive to address.
Our leaders hate us and want us dead.
We need to start making them on CONUS immediately. .Gov has plenty of money to fund it.
So the 72 hour balloon scare is over.
Cool.
Whats next?
Im getting bored just trying to pay my mortgage and feed my family.
Just silly stuff like that.
If you actually believe a single bit of useful information is ever recovered from the balloon wreckage … then you aren’t paying attention. Our US President just PROVED that he is a PARTNER with the ChiComs. Let the balloon traverse the entire US … then shoot it down in the middle of the ocean where no bits will ever be recovered. Doing the bidding of Dear Leader Xi
Any real US leader would have taken care of business over the Pacific, this waiting for it to reach the Atlantic is BS.
Only if the possibility of recovering stuff from the water is better than the land does taking this down over water make any sense.
Maybe it does. Maybe it doesn’t.
In any event — this whole circus has really shown the world what a clown Biden is, and what a freak circus his Administration is.
Why wasn’t it shot down with the 12 mile ocean border of the Pacific coastline?
Did they miss it coming in? Were they unable to see it?
There’s story there. Perhaps an important one.
What else could be dangled with malign intent to cause harm and death?
I assure you, the military tracked it across the Pacific and yes that makes this story unbelievably important. I mean who are they and Joe actually working for? Certainly, not the taxpayersof the USA. Remember this. This part is important. Everything else is window dressing.
This was just a demonstration by China to the world as to how weak Biden is and/or how much China has Biden under their thumb.
Details omitted coming shortly!!
Bioweapon?
Let them try an invasion. I’m all about killing commies where they stand. As the old saying goes, the only good commie is a dead commie!!
Please enlarge the faces on the picture below. Do you see great big smiles? Clearly, they are concerned.
Biden’s have “personal business” at Camp david
Look , Balloon!
Documents? What documents?
Jones is nuts. It takes a nuclear event to produce an EMP pulse strong enough to knock out electronic stuff on any kind of large scale.
Yes, and a balloon can carry a nuke. The bigger issue is, the best EMP comes from quite a bit further up. But this would do the trick.
Seriously, it’s silly to worry about EMP. A shipping container missile can launch one off of any of the thousands of ships that are near our shores all the time. Why use a balloon, the course of which you cannot control?
The concern is not silly. We should have locked down our ports long ago to prevent shipping container’s from containing/launching weapons. We should not continue shipping stuff from China. We can make it all here.
Yes, and someone with a rifle is trying to show proof of how easy it is, starting in North Carolina. Which is why I’m wasting no time getting prepared.
Wise woman.
😎
Accepting the narrative that the shoot down occurred where and when the .gov claims, I find myself wondering if there was some concern that was rigged with some sort of pathogenic payload designed to release with a sudden drop in altitude or crashing into the ground.
Could be why they waited untill it was off shore with prevailing winds going away from land.
Even if not the case at all, it certainly shows the danger posed by such a device deliberately designed to deliver pathogens into the US.
one again
the first off shore was the pacific ocean
it wasn’t shot down until the atlantic ocean
