Balloons: The perfect delivery vehicle for an EMP attack?

Watching Tucker --- he had MT's gov on who said the feds never alerted him..... had he known about it he would have given the orders himself for the NG to take it out. Reports are that MO senator asking its gov to take action now that it is over their state.
On a side note --- china really blew an opportunity here.... they should have painted the balloon with pride colors and/or ukrainian flag ---- that way if anyone were to shoot it down, all the leftist aholes would go ballistic and scream 'white maga supremacy'!!!! _________________ Plan B is actually repeating Plan A.... it just involves much more alcohol. Of the ten voices I hear in my head, only three keep telling me NOT to shoot.... Do I go with the majority or common sense? |

There's been an explosion over Billings.

I was being tongue-in-cheek about the border…
But… You can do a search yourself on the myriad of things, but one thing is that pops up, is that the “balloon's slower speed also allows it to loiter over and monitor the target area for longer periods. A satellite's movement, on the other hand, is restricted to its orbital pass.” So, hovering over where we have nuclear silos doesn’t seem like a good thing… |

I heard surmize that it's a dry run using balloons as the perfect platform for an EMP attack.... ack... ack... ack  _________________ “Finding ‘common ground’ with the thinking of evil men is a fool’s errand” ~ Herschel Smith "The “A return to First Principles in a Republic is sometimes caused by simple virtues of a single man.
