Dem Rep. Himes: 'Unlikely' Alaska Object
Was 'a Threat' -- They Took it Down Due
to What We 'Went Through' with Spy Balloon

On Friday’s broadcast of MSNBC’s “Deadline: White House,” Rep. Jim Himes (D-CT) stated that he believes the object downed over Alaska “was unlikely to have been a threat of any kind, even of intelligence gathering,” and was probably something benign and “they just said, given what we just all went through for a week, better to just take this thing down.” He also stated that there was a risk to civilian aircraft from the object and that is a reason for the object being taken down. Himes said, “I don’t know a lot. The briefing was pretty summary, my understanding, there have been some briefings in D.C. for various committee

Per ABC News it was reported to be floating at the whim of wind, cylindrical, silverfish gray, and with no signs of propulsion.

This object was flying at 40,000 feet. so it was DEFINITELY a major threat to aviation -- commercial jet traffic such as Gulfstream jets often fly up to 45,000 feet (flight level 450). The bigger passenger and cargo jets generally fly as high as 41,000 feet (flight level 410). It's safe to say this object didn't have a transponder or TCAS so commercial traffic had no way of avoiding it unless by visual acquisition -- and it was the size of a small car, too small to see very far away, in time to avoid. It was far too small to show up significantly on airborne weather radar carried on airplanes. It's like putting a minefield in the sky for commercial traffic.

If an aerial object is going to be launched for an internet or other commercial service you would think that the DOD would be informed. If that is a requirement that wasn’t met then shoot it down. If not, then we have no control of our airspace. Explain this to the American people and stop lying. We’re not stupid.

Choice of weapon used to take down the balloon. F-22 or a BB gun from Target? I'd go with the latter to save on fuel costs.

This was just China's way of offering Senile Joe bidet a little "coverage" for obeying their orders and allowing the other real spy balloon to fly over US airspace for over a week and transmit all of its data back to China. This balloon wasn't doing anything but floating so that Senile Joe could shoot it down to save a little face.

"I don't know a lot"...in fact he doesn't "Know" anything, didn't even attend the briefing, his "staff" did....because he and the rest of the congresscritters have the weekend off, again. My question is...why use a $500,000 sidewinder instead of $50.00 worth of bullets? I can see the potential argument for using a missile on the 60,000ft one, it was well above normal operations ceiling even for the F22, this one at 40,000ft was low/slow enough to 'go to guns' for sooperdoooper top gun Mavric types Some years back I remember a parade balloon, a panda, or a penguin I think, getting loose and flying over the great lakes...spotted out the windows of passenger jets, eventually burst, or deflated enough to splash down in Lake Erie.

In World War II there were objects called Barrage Balloons. They just floated along to disrupt aerial bombing assaults.

Re #21. Barrage balloons were tethered, not free floating. The point was the steel cable that tethered them was a good way to slice off a wing of an attacking aircraft as a defensive measure.

My high flying days date back to the 50's. Tests proved that the shockwave from a Mach 1 airplane near the surface could destroy most objects. If an F22 passed near a high altitude balloon at Mach 2 would the shockwave collapse or destroy the balloon?

Asteroid explodes over English Channel

An asteroid has exploded over the English Channel after entering Earth's atmosphere in the early hours of this morning. The small 1m asteroid, currently designated as Sar2667, created a shooting star and an 'airburst' when it exploded. It was visible from across most of southern England and Wales - and as far south as Paris, France. American Physicist and airburst specialist Mark Boslough from the Los Alamos National Laboratory told Wales Online that while "airbursts of this size happen somewhere several times per year" they are "rarely discovered in advance." He said this was only the seventh time in history one had been discovered advance.

President Joe Biden’s (D) administration is reportedly allowing states to use Medicaid for food and nutritional counseling, according to the Wall Street Journal. The Journal reported Sunday that policy makers are trying to determine whether “food as medicine” programs can enhance health and also save money, the outlet said: A growing body of research suggests that addressing food insecurity can improve health as well as deliver savings by reducing medical visits, the need for medication, or by helping control serious illness. The programs have also appealed to some GOP lawmakers who believe states should have more control over their Medicaid programs.

Alright, maybe I was too quick to dismiss the possibility of aliens. The Pentagon gave a briefing on Sunday evening after yet another unidentified flying object was shot down, this time in US airspace over Lake Huron. Reports began to circulate that the object was an “octagon” and that it didn’t appear to be a balloon. That set off some speculation that the recent rash of UFOs were balloons, likely from China, but that they were simply shaped differently than one would expect. In a pretty shocking statement, though, Gen. Glen VanHerck made it clear that’s not the view of the US military. The UFOs not being balloons would be crazy enough,

The Kansas City Chiefs defeated the Philadelphia Eagles 38-35 Sunday in Super Bowl LVII in a thrilling back-and-forth affair that came down to the final seconds. Points were plentiful in a game which got off to a frenetic pace Sunday and didn't let up, with strong offensive displays showing why the Eagles and the Chiefs got to this highly anticipated matchup. Harrison Butker's 27-yard field goal with 11 seconds to play gave the Chiefs their third Super Bowl in franchise history. After going into halftime down 24-14, the Chiefs came roaring back in the second half to take a 35-27 lead midway through the fourth quarter.

The reason is that they’re not planning on taking action at the moment but will in the morning. What are they planning to take action on? There’s a third object, according to Rep. Matt Rosendale (R-MT). “I am in direct contact with NORCOM and monitoring the latest issue over Havre and the northern border,” Rosendale divulged. “Airspace is closed due to an object that could interfere with commercial air traffic — the DOD will resume efforts to observe and ground the object in the morning.”

He had made plenty of mistakes in the Oval Office, and yet his aides knew one big thing: If they stayed on the right side of a key issue—the income security of Americans—and could paint the Republicans as being on the wrong side of that issue, they’d be fine. In fact, Republicans, enjoying newfound power on Capitol Hill, chose to pursue an unpopular ideological agenda. They played right into the Democrats’ hands.

Actually, it’s not that funny, and although he’s made similar jests in the past, it points to a larger problem: many don’t believe the President is really in charge—including seemingly himself.

The ban in a town of about 15,000 people roughly 35 miles (56 kilometers) from Concord, New Hampshire's capital, was the culmination of a long debate about district rules about bathroom use and gender identity.
