But don’t worry, the Biden administration says it’s not considered a threat.
No need to shoot it down.
Democrats installed #ChinaJoe and now the CCP isn’t afraid of us anymore.

Okay China Joe.
Wait a minute, are you storing more boxes of classified documents in the balloon?
According to CNN,
The Pentagon has been tracking the balloon for several days as it made its way over the northern United States, Pentagon spokesman Brig. Gen. Patrick Ryder said.
While the balloon’s current flight path carries it over “a number of sensitive sites,” the official said it does not present a significant intelligence gathering risk. The balloon is assessed to have “limited additive value” from an intelligence collection perspective, the official added.
The president has been briefed on the balloon’s movements and requested military options on how to deal with it, according to a senior administration official.
Biden took Milley’s advice not to order the balloon shot down and the official stressed that it does not pose a military threat emphasizing that the administration acted “immediately” to protect against the collection of sensitive information.
Phew! I feel better now.
I know Milley has our best interest at heart.
It’s not like he ever told China there’d be no surprise attacks….
Gen. Mark Milley's admission that he called his counterpart in China while President Donald Trump was in office and told him that he'd warn of any impending attack is equal to treason, Reps. Louie Gohmert and Andrew Clyde said on Newsmax Saturday. https://t.co/16F4E6Q7OU

Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene took to Twitter, saying this wouldn’t fly with a Trump administration.
Biden should shoot down the Chinese spy balloon immediately.
President Trump would have never tolerated this.
President Trump would have never tolerated many things happening to America.

I’d have to agree, and it looks like I’m not the only one:
If Trump were president, there wouldn't be a Chinese spy balloon in American airspace.

This wouldn’t be happening under President Trump.
