According to the Biden administration, the balloon's have been flying since the Trump administration. So why wait 2 years?

    They are masters of the Art of War.

    They aren't targeting China. They're targeting the USA public.

      You suspect the "Chinese balloon" is a trial balloon to get a read on the public's opinion of China as a potential enemy?

      The public is waking up to the overwhelming harm from the injections, and is increasingly opposed to war with Russia.

      This story came out of nowhere, and now it's everywhere.
      They're running out of distraction narratives, so you may be right over the target.

        I doubt it is to see if people hate China only.

        Chinese balloons crossed over the U.S. at least three times during the Trump administration.

        This time is was jammed and studied:

        VanHerck said the military took “maximum protective measures” to “prevent any intelligence collection” while the balloon flew across the United States.

        “We did not assess this balloon posed a significant collection hazard beyond what already exists in actionable technical means from the Chinese," he said, and officials believe they learned more by monitoring the balloon itself.

        It "gave us the opportunity to assess what they were actually doing, what kind of capabilities existed on the balloon, (and) what kind of transmission capabilities existed," VanHerck said. "We were able to get significant analysis throughout this process."

        It was shot down where it would not cause any damage. If you don't understand that you need to picture that structure below the balloon was the size of a couple of busses, and it was 12 miles up.

        I pointed out that and got banned on reddit but why did they wait till the weather balloon was over the gulf of mexico to shoot it down.
