Just how much do we pay for each of those missiles we use to shoot them down?

There is probably harmful new viruses in these things. We wait until they invade our territory. Such wisdom.

“ Have they been positively identified as unidentified?”
******************************************************

Not yet. As of now the official American intelligence assessment is that there is a 95 PERCENT PROBABILITY THAT THEY ARE UNIDENTIFIED,

What, make sense? I think it makes sense and governments are denying it.
Releasing a transmissible virus, while international travel is open, doesn’t make sense for war. If you want a bunch of people from everywhere to die it does, but not targeted.
Releasing a balloon, or whatever structure, from a known origin that releases a deadly virus is a purposeful WMD.
We would kill a billion Chinks for it. Even with the retard as POTUS.

Are we not able to get our satellites up in orbit to locate these unidentified balloons and see every millimeter of it? Why or why not? Seems like we should be able to

Our COVID response would suggest otherwise.

They wanted to destroy the evidence. Biden doing Xi’s dirty work and bending over for him for the 10%

Real radiosonde balloons to confuse the issue?

Yeah that would be way better. Can we make you a general? You’re making better decisions than these career hacks

...OR most likely Trudeau called USAF begging and crying like a little girl to have us shoot the big scary balloon down.

Yes, Trudeau is not a real leader. But I have a slightly different take. Trudeau saw the bad press Biden got from this incident. Also, the original balloon went over Canada on its way to the lower 48 states. With this new one (or more), he wanted to avoid appearing as feckless and cowardly as Biden, so he probably asked his Air Force about shooting it down. When they said it was not a sure thing, he asked the Biden administration to shoot it down with his blessings. Then he looks like a strong leader and gets good press for this incident. A doughty politician to the very end...

Did you miss the last 3 years of Covid 19? What do you think that was? A directed biowarfare attack…

Please post the proof it was an attack by China against the US.
It started in China. You don’t attack with a bioweapon by releasing it your own country.
Maybe our government is in bed with Chinese researchers because gain of function is illegal in the USA. It could have easily gotten out through an internal researcher. It’s not even remotely near purposeful aerosolized release over our country.

Proof?
Who attacks another country by releasing it in their own country first?
