    The facts are that the Brigadier General you love so much didn’t even claim that the balloon is a spy balloon, so…

      @zephyreks Not directly, he just said that the countermeasures the US took contributed to stopping it from doing so, so…

      …this is where you inserted your bullshit about it being because he was trying to justify the budget because of the training he had and that all military leaders in the US are trained to lie and mislead the press because you know… the military budget that literally no one in Congress is concerned about and increases every year regardless if they even ask for it.

        He hasn’t made any claim that the satellite collected data, either.

              @zephyreks You poor thing. You lost this debate days ago and just can’t seem to let it go. I wish you the best. I really do.
