I'll have a better angle to hit it from where I am in Florida. I'll use a supercharged high altitude bullet with expanding blades.

Somebody else is going to have to handle the second balloon. I'm going to save Mar a Lago.
I told you I was going to do it yesterday.
I just had to wait until the sun was behind me.


I let Joe take the credit.

I think we all know Trump would have told them better... so much better.

I thought Biden was supposed to be in Xi's lap.

MAGA can't even lie believably anymore... not that they ever could.

Rigged witch hoax balloon commie pervert lizards are trying to get their hands on my money... or take over the world... or turn my grandkid into a drag queen.

They've been buying bottom priced bullshit for so long that they can't even recognize what absurdity looks like.

I have long said the issue with Hunter's Laptop is chain of custody. Nobody knows who has had their hands in there between Hunter and the FBI, who supposedly has the laptop now.
Well we do know some of the people such as Giuliana and Bannon and the repair store owner, none of which are above suspicion of tampering the contents. Then there is the fact that at the time there were more of the scummier people that were in Trump's orbit still who also would be likely to tamper wiith the contents. All that aside though there is just the issue that the store owner felt that simply because Hunter didn't pick it up on the day it was supposed to be picked up that meant he was free to take it and monitize it any way possible. I mean I know a few people in that line of work and what he did with someone else's property is way out of line for someone wanting to be seen as a reputable business man in that line of work, even if the customer was late, especially if as I suspect there was little to no effort to contact the customer and remind them that they were late. I mean what if a customer brought something in for repair and then had a bad car accident that left them in a coma and that's why they were late? I guarentee you if it was just some average customer the store owner wouldn't have done what he did. He only did it because he was a supporter of Trump and knew that Hunter Biden's private, personal data might be of interest to Trump and he might score some points as well as money by turning it over to Trump's people. Then beyond that there is the actual accessing of someone's private personal data I mean surely there are laws on the books that protect people from that sort of thing?

Allegedly, the balloon was the first air-to-air kill for the F22 Raptor

Nearly 30 years of development and billions well spent!
the first, but likely not the last. things like that are "insurance" that you purchase and hope you never need, much like my CC pistol. the 10 gauge shotgun beside the bed gets used quite a bit...ducks, geese, turkeys, coyotes...

10 Gauge? Why do you hate your shoulder?
it's not that i hate my shoulder, but that i detest turkeys and geese more...how DARE they be delicious! recoil really not that bad. it's a nine lb plus single shot. i did note that there are NO trap & skeet competitions for the 10...i shoot it 8-10 times in a great year! 25 at clay birds i can't eat? i don't think so, lol...

What is really ridiculous about the spy balloon thing is that there was all this fear mongering that it might have contained some virus or nerve gas that it was gradually releasing above the US. This thing was floating around at 60K feet which is roughly twice the height of the typical passenger jet. At that height by the time anything released, made it's way to ground level it would be so widely dispersed and dissipated that it would have no chance at having any effect on anything. Not to mention that even if it stayed in an effective concentration, the time it would take to get to ground level would make it virtually impossible to hit any targeted area. I mean just look at the balloon and equipment itself which would obviously be much denser and heavier, by the time it hit ground level it was dispersed over a 7 mile area. It's really scary when you hear people believing this sort of thing and you realize just how little critical thinking skills so much of the population has.

wreckage spread across 7 mile wide debris field. boats, divers etc on the job
I heard that too. It looked like they just shot the balloon and the the three city bus part came straight down.
It doesn't make sense that they would blow the crap out of it 12 miles up and then look for pieces to figure out what the Chinese were up to.
