Suspected Chinese spy balloon shot down over Atlantic was taller than the Statue of Liberty

The Department of Defense on Monday revealed the size of the suspected Chinese spy balloon that the U.S. shot down over the Atlantic Ocean this weekend – and it turns out it was bigger than the Statue of Liberty.

VanHerck said the massive debris field left behind by the destroyed balloon is about 4,921 feet by 4,921 feet –"more than 15 football fields by 15 football fields." "There was a warhead in the missile," he said."You can see that explosion on TV as it goes through the lower part of the balloon and right there through the superstructure."

GOP: It could have had nukes! Or Wuhan virus! Also GOP: He didn’t shoot it down!

yet dementia joe let it collect info from military bases all over the US when he could have shot it down in the Pacific. Now that's Leadership

I don’t believe it was a Spy balloon. I think it was a platform that could’ve been used for an EMP. I think it was just a test run to see if they can make it across the US without getting shot down. I won’t be surprised if we see more but will probably have an EMP.

✅ Yep! We recovered a Russian sub from 4 miles deep in the Pacific … but appear to be having trouble recovering a floating shredded balloon in 40 feet of water. Just goes to show what a lotta woke can do.

Doing the Lord’s work!

We don't care about the size... We care about the inaction from our government. Why was it allowed to spy in the first place?

Still wonder why the Chinese would use a spy balloon when they have spy satellites in space. Joe blames the military for not taking it down sooner and the military blames joe, I tend to believe the military over a pathological liar like joe

And there are conservatives suggesting it should have been shot down while over a city, and the resulting harm or casualties, if any, would be manageable….seriously 😳

Seems like the tech and eyeballs should be able to measure it

пускай они его теперь и собирают.

What is faster: a Japanese zero or a Chinese balloon? Commander in Chief my A$$

I believe we should be calling it the 'lunar balloon' Calling it a Chinese balloon is only further vilification of Asian Americans activeasian ACRWatchdog AsianDawn4
