Whoa, whoa, whoa ... we were emphatically preached to that the Brandon administration COULD NOT SHOOT DOWN LARGE, HIGH-ALTITUDE OBJECTS FLYING OVER THE UNITED STATES because THAT WOULD BE WAY TOO DANGEROUS!!! No, Brandon's administration categorically said they had to wait until it crossed the U.S. and was over the Atlantic Ocean.
Yeah, they wouldn't bring down the Chinese balloon, earlier this week, over sparsely populated Montana ... so why are they shooting this one down over sparsely populated Alaska?!
