I think something simply caused these recent balloons to drop altitude. They flew at less than 75,000 feet. Normally these things would be flying at closer to 100,000+ feet, and be much harder to see. That could explain why this was not known by the public before. An act of nature (or intervention?) caused the balloons to drop into sighting range, plus some lucky eyes to spot them.
It was reported that this Chinese balloon was observed to be at 75,000 feet. You seem to be knowledgeable about Chinese Spy balloons. Would you be kind enough to tell me how you know what height spy balloons fly at? How do know the difference in height would make any real difference to people viewing the sky with telescopic lens? What's your goal here anyway? Are you saying not to believe 'spotters' because of their lying eyes?
It is well documented that balloons of this type can fly in the 100k - 120k foot range, even civilian weather balloons in the $500 price range can do that.
At night, nobody would have much of a chance to randomly spot one, unless maybe a flicker of sun reflection caught it briefly. And even if a dot in the sky were seen, not many people own photographic equipment that could view it clearly at high altitude, day or night, even if they were curious enough to use such a camera to try to look at it.
I believe that it is entirely plausible idea that these CCP balloons have been violating our air space for years, unnoticed by the public, or noticed, and intentionally disregarded by the MSM, and establishment officials.
Secondly, there exists a clear potential motive for the CCP friendly globohomo establishment to hide balloon flyovers from Trump, as it would have fueled public calls for harsh sanctions against the CCP, and bolstered the America First agenda that Trump was leading.
For one, you don't know what the payload weight of a Chinese Spy balloon is. Secondly, you have no idea what this Chinese Spy balloon had on it for equipment. Purportedly, the 'Brandon Help Team' have concocted a story that it had the capability of self-detonation with ordinances onboard. That would tend to add weight to the payload, no? This seems to be the narrative for their excuse why it wasn't shot down when it flew over continental United States. Hmmmmm.... I wonder why it wasn't shot down over the Aleutian Islands and Alaska then? Anyone can deduct that this another phony BS LIE they're telling. Joe Biden is completely compromised to the CCP. How would our government know when it hasn't been recovered yet in the Atlantic Ocean? The answer is They don't know. This is yet another LIE.
The altitude of a Spy balloon would depend on a variety of factors. Weather balloons are not Chinese Spy balloons. So, your altitude factors are all speculation in this regard. This minutia you're putting forth is having the effect of diverting from the established fact this Chinese Spy balloon was observable to the naked eye from the ground, which was immediately spotted in Montana by several sources. It would certainly be a plausible case for the same to occur for their alleged "over Texas and Florida" Chinese Spy balloon BS too. However, no one ever observed one, which means it's proof positive there were no Chinese Spy balloons during the Trump Administration. Stop defending the enemy here and their BS narrative. The precedent of their LIES have been established overwhelming and incontrovertibly.
Stop defending the enemy here and their BS narrative.
I am most certainly not defending the enemy, or their BS narrative. I am punching a hole in the narrative.
While you are largely correct in what you are saying, you are missing a very, very important detail about the specifics of the enemy lie. They are lying by omission, and insinuation to smear Trump.
Notice- The article makes no claim that Trump knew of CCP balloons over the USA. If the allegation is supposed to smear Trump, why didn't they make it point to accuse Trump of allowing CCP balloons over the USA? Think about that.
That's not what they said though. They said balloon flights happened during the Trump years. That wording only insinuates that Trump had knowledge of that "happening" in US air space, and further insinuates that Trump failed to defend US air space.
My point is contending that the left is lying by telling a half-truth here. That being: Yes, balloons flew over the USA during the Trump years, BUT, (the omitted part of the lie) the military industrial complex hid that fact from Trump, because MIC didn't want Trump to slap the CCP with harsh sanctions.
I think whoever made that statement from the DoD fucked up badly, by 'spilling the beans' in hopes of smearing Trump with a "but he did it too!" allegation in a weak attempt to try to justify the Biden administration/military failure to deal with the threat. I see this DoD leaked statement as a major blunder from team globohomo, and one that we need to capitalize upon.
Let's watch and see who will jump up to demand an investigation of Trump for failure to defend US territory, and who tries to bury this notion real fast. I bet we don't see the democrats calling for Trump investigations over this allegation. Watch.

Just as I presciently interpreted it, it is now confirmed that General 'Chaos' Mattis -- Denies Reports – Says He HAD NO KNOWLEDGE OF CCP BALLOON Flying Over US During His Watch as Secretary of Defense under Trump – ANOTHER LIE EXPOSED! (VIDEO)
