    It's unidentified. And it was flying. And it was an object.

    You all do know that we're going to war with China right?

    Feds are still saying they don't know who owned it or what it was. If we believe them, they are hoping to figure it out from the wreckage.

    I’m actually excited to watch Fox News talk about how no president has been worse at intergalactic diplomacy than Biden.

    Am loving the balloon stories -- nobody had this on 2023 bingo.

    Plus NPR used "99 luftballoons" in segment bump music yesterday. That stupid fat keyboard line, hahaha.

    This is such ridiculous fear mongering. They're military is in no position for a war and biden just cut them from all semi conductor production. The last thing they need is a war with taiwan when all of their chips could be cut off. Until China has a way to produce advanced chips <3nm then they aren't invading.

    Usa has already said well bomb TSMC at the beginning of any invasion. They can't afford it. Quit reading click bait fear mongering stories.
