My boomers are generally distrustful of government, but it's taken this stupid balloon story for my dad (ex-Navy) to see how flagrantly fake the media is.
For the unitiated, if the balloon thing was real you'd never have heard about it... It's have been dealt with probably before reaching out airspace.
Precisely! "Look over there! Shiny object!" Meanwhile something diabolically devious just went down. Anyone else also notice how quick Jhina was to say "oh, hey, that was our weather balloon. Oopsie poopsie"
The whole thing stinks of distraction
