Florida has called a special session of the state’s congress to tackle issues like illegal immigration, Disney groomers and other things. One of the things on the agenda is a $12 million plan by Ron DeSantis to fly illegal migrants who wind up in Florida thanks to Biden’s open borders policy to left wing cesspools. Remember last summer with Martha’s Vineyard? DsSantis’ $12 million plan will give him the power to send illegals back to Martha’s Vineyard and other rich, snob left wing crapholes like Nantucket. I can’t wait until the state senate passes this.
A top general said Monday that the U.S. is investigating whether the Chinese spy balloon was carrying explosives, describing it as 200-feet tall, weighing thousands of pounds and with a payload the size of a jetliner.
‘So I can’t confirm whether it had explosives or not. Anytime you down something like this, we make an assumption that that potential exists,’ said Air Force Gen. Glen D. VanHerck, commander of U.S. Northern Command, on a briefing call with reporters.
His description followed a briefing by National Security Council spokesman John Kirby, who defended President Joe Biden’s decision to wait and shoot down the Chinese craft until it was over South Carolina’s coastline on Saturday.
‘Because the president decided they wouldn’t shoot it down until he could do so safely, and that meant over water, that afforded us a terrific opportunity to gain a better understanding, to study the capabilities of this balloon,’ he told reporters on a call.
Biden ordered the balloon shot down Wednesday, but under the advice of the U.S. military it was held off until Saturday, with the Air Force sending an F-22 fighter jet armed with an AIM-9X Sidewinder missile to do the job.
