Just because they admit it isn't true doesn't mean their base doesn't now worry about it, and assume it's true.
Conservatives have killed more Americans with there anti-science bullshit than any foreign country has in the last 7 years.  They need to STFU and stop sabotaging America. >

But that’s literally what they get paid to do. They aren’t there to actually govern >

The first question of every interview of a GOP congressperson should be "Why isn't there a national GOP platform?" or "What are the specific agenda items your party has?" >

"Make the rich richer, kill people, and entrench one-party rule. Now, about that laptop..." >

"Make women, minorities, and LGBTQ+ people miserable" >

"Make gay male escorts in the vicinity of our conventions RICH." >

If he blew it up earlier over land they would be still complaining it potentially had bioweapons that could have hit populated areas and that it was a careless mistake to make without knowing its contents. >

Or that the federal government came in and confiscated the "salvage" from a Montana rancher, depriving him of his rights as a landowner. >

The only thing probably acceptable would be Joe, upon learning of the balloon,  conferencing in the Republicans   in congress and asking them for advice. >

False.
There's Biden could have done that would've been acceptable to Republicans, because Republicans just want to own the libs, and that means saying anything Biden did or does is wrong, no matter what it is, including coming to them.
They'd just call him weak, not a leader, etc. Look what happened when Obama tried to get Congress to declare war or otherwise give some explicit authorization before he would act on Syria.
Everything Republicans do is in bad faith. >

I, unfortunately, read an opinion piece from Fox News earlier that absolutely lambasted Biden for his handling of this. Yadda, yadda, yadda, I'm sure you can imagine it. The disgrace, the weakness, if he can't handle this how can you handle all of China, bullshit, bullshit, bullshit. 
Curiously enough, there was not a single mention of the three fucking balloons that meandered their way through our territory under Trump's watch without being noticed. Fancy that. 
There's nothing Biden can do that'll elicit any type of positive reaction from the GOP. He could cave tomorrow and give them every single thing they want, no questions asked, and Fox would be publishing stories about how weak he is. 
The GOP is incapable and uninterested in governing. >

Fox “news” is saying that the 3 balloons while Trump was president were much smaller than this last balloon . So I guess it’s understandable that Trump missed them. >

I really don't know why she didnt follow up with:
"You mentioned Wuhan and bioweapons.  It's now been reported that 3 similar Chinese balloons passed over the USA during Trump's administration.  Do you wonder if Trump ignored COVID releases by Chinese balloons in 2020, resulting in a million American deaths?  What steps  are you taking to find out?"
F'ing putz. >

How do they not have these kind of rebuttals ready to go? >

They sell advertising, not informational content. >

I'm sick to death of seeing that hayseed on TV every single day. >

Shhh 🤫 If we give him attention he’ll be in our lives like Ted Cruz and them >

Particulate released at 60,000 feet has little to no chance of going anywhere you want it to go. It could be stuck in the atmosphere, floating around the earth until we all die of old age. >

Not exactly relevant, but interesting to me. During world war 2 the Japanese harvest fleas from rats carrying the Bubonic plague, and dropped them over china. The fleas were light enough that they were not harmed by the fall and they caused a plague outbreak once they landed. I am pretty sure they weren't dropped from 60k feet, but your comment reminded me of that bit of history >

You realize that you could put a virus in a tube of toothpaste and fly into NYC without customs ever checking.  You could fly in from Paris and there would be no traceability offering a potential nuclear war. 
Balloons?  LMAO  Unless they know that we know that they know that we know that we would think they wouldn't use a balloon because they could fly in from Paris.  Ah let me get back to r/conservative with this one... >

the rube goldbergish quality to a lot of the right wing conspiracies truly confuses me. it's like, the more unnecessary steps the plan has the more reasonable it seems to these rubes. >

exactly.  Kaos in Get Smart >

perfect example. i wish mel brooks was writing this shit, at least it would be funny. >


The top Republican declared he was merely asking questions before insisting he “never said” there were bioweapons from Wuhan in the surveillance craft.

Oh that racist shit again. >

Merely asking questions…what a dumbass.
Is the balloon filled with bio weapons?
Is the balloon carrying COVID?
Does the balloon have a family?
Does the balloon speak Mandarin only?
Is the balloon aware of Jewish space lasers?
Has the balloon communicated with Comer?
What did the balloon say to Comer?
Did the balloon ask Comer about his sexual preferences?
Does the balloon think Comer enjoys beastiality?
Look, I’m just asking questions here… >


Is the balloon carrying COVID?

I assume this is what he was trying to imply by bringing up Wuhan.
Has the balloon seen the Hunter Biden dick pics? Why is the balloon hiding them from us? >

Blow it up, it has bio weapons! Republican logic at its finest. >

It’s so sad that these people are in positions of authority.
