HUGE CHINESE SPY BALLOON

According to the United States' Department of Defense, the Chinese reconnaissance balloon that flew over the United States for several days, before being destroyed just yesterday by the United States Air Force, was massive in size.

According to Glen Van Herck, who is the NORTHCOM general, the Chinese reconnaissance balloon was around two-hundred-feet in height, and with a payload that was the size of a jetliner, weighing "in excess of a couple thousand-pounds."

Apparently, according to the general, the payload included photographic material, and possible explosives that would had been used to destroy the balloon should a government or military capture the balloon.

According to Joe Biden, who is the United States President, "once it [Chinese reconnaissance balloon] came over to the United States—from Canada—I told the Defense Department I wanted to shoot it down as soon as it was appropriate."

However, "they [Defense Department] concluded we should not shoot it down over land, [because] it was not a serious threat."

When a reporter asked Joe Biden why China would conduct such a brazen action to float a reconnaissance balloon over the United States, Joe Biden replied, "they're the Chinese."
