In The News Today...

The Administration claimed they didn't shoot it down over land, because the military said the debris field would have covered five and a half miles. It was a freaking balloon.

"China has been playing us for chumps"

It's coming to a show down with Taiwan over semiconductors.

Hopefully, we can build our plants before they get crazier.

Apple switched some production to India.

South Korea production is considerable.

So it could be worse.

Iconic.

I don't know if you saw the close up video, but when it was hit pieces of the payload went flying. From 60,000 feet that will definitely be many miles of debris.

So let me get this straight. We waited until it had traversed the entire country on its data collection mission, and were patiently waiting for it to go out to sea before we shot it down? So….. if it had controls that kept it over land we wouldn’t have ever shot it down? How stupid can the Biden administration look? I mean really…. Was Joe digging through his trove of old top secret documents to find out a plan? As usual, when Biden/the Democrats do something this blatantly stupid they resort to the only answer they have…. but Trump was worse!

Um….. you are aware he let it bob around unfettered throughout our skies? Waiting days to let it finish its mission and THEN shooting it down is NOT defending our skies. Your posts show a lack of even rudimentary critical thinking.

Large quake.

We can jam the signal. No reason to think anything got back to China once it was detected.

An example of when fans go too far. Way too far.
Max Shulga, who is from Ukranie was taking a foul shot for the Utah State Aggies.
Some Coloroda State Rams fans started shouting:

"RUSSIA RUSSIA RUSSIA "

So very, very disgusting, and just way, way out of bounds.

Biden’s BLS 517K jobs number are government propaganda. Biden needed some good news for his State of the Union speech tomorrow and the BLS provided it. The ADP payroll numbers posted two days before the BLS, were only 106K. BLS numbers are usually higher because they include government jobs. But not 400K higher.

The unemployment rate of 3.4% is likewise more government propaganda. The broader U6 unemployment rate, surged to 7.4% in January.

Record number of Americans worse off financially, since Biden took office.
