And Russia took notes...
The Chinese prefer an EMP attack over Nukes because there is no damage to crops or infrastructure with an EMP. Just dispose of the bodies after about 6 months.

Thanks, free traitors. I hope that $.10 you saved on communist made paint brushes is worth what you did to this country.
I don’t know about an EMP attack, or biological weapons, etc., but as a propaganda weapon it has succeeded. China has shown that Biden’s American is impotent.
This is right out of James Bond. In this scenario, the US officials all the way to the top have been bought off.
Stolen elections have consequences..
Aaahhhhhh…..
Kung Fu
Nancy Pelosi and others made their pilgrimages to Taiwan last year.
China was bound to respond.
China is getting the Japan 1941 treatment right now.
There is a message in this balloon.
Keep going after China invading it’s turf (Taiwan) and there will be a response with more punch in it.
Dumb article.
But I can't help but wonder about this being all-too-convenient.
I am not as “excited” about this as some seem to be given that China Airlines and others fly all over our nation for both passenger and air cargo operations.
However, many nations have lasers that would be very capable of destroying a balloon since they are designed to destroy satellites in low-earth orbit (far higher than this).
The Russians successfully put one in a cargo aircraft and I believe we had the same thing or were trying the same capability and we have tested these from modified aircraft as well.
I would believe that our Air Force has this capability because anti-satellite operations are crucial to modern warfare against a near-peer adversary. Space Force for the win?

Two cigarettes, two blindfolds are in short order, for Pedo-Joe and the Burisma-kid.
I love good fiction. This is not good fiction.
It’s just silly.
Biden didn’t decide to leave the Chinese balloon alone. And that’s because Biden doesn’t decide anything.
Some puppet master made that decision. A bulldog press would demand to know who. They would demand answers. But of course we no longer have a bulldog press. So let’s all go back to investigating Trump’s tax returns from 1980.
Any sufficiently powerful EMP weapon would require detonation of a specific type of nuclear explosion. This would be extremely heavy and would emit a radiation signature that would be easily detected by our own satellites long before it crossed our shores. Using a slow, large, visible balloon to carry such a device would be ridiculous. Time to knock off the comical hysteria which no doubt has the Chinese ROTFLOL.
As far as I know only China has the Neutron Bomb and has twice tested it over Uyghur villages back in the late 80s, early 90s. Worked just fine.
B Clinton did away with our prototypes, and the Russians, who knows?
Links are from the early 90s so I no longer have them.
