Big LIE exposed: Pentagon finally admits Chinese "spy balloon" sent no military info!

by DLi
On June 30--on a Friday, typically a news-lite day--the Pentagon released a statement that the much-hyped Chinese "spy balloon" that was shot down by US air missiles back in February(costing more than $400,000 each, and it took 2 shots!) had not, after all, sent back any military information. Gee, did the US Government commit another one of those "Iraqi had WMD" moment?
Back in February, huge headlines across the entire "Corporate bin-laden" media mesmerized the entire USA airwaves about a Chinese "SPY" balloon that had drifted slowly across the North American continent. (Was the concocted media drama released as a diversion on the imminent national debt/default charade put up by a bipartisan CONgress? I'll leave that to readers to ponder...) Not a single "respectable" journalist nor newspaper dared to entertain China's assertion that it was merely a weather balloon that went off-course and drifted over US borders. Indeed, the absurd hyperbolic public outcry ensured that President Biden had to prove his "patriotism" by promising to shot it down. And the White House even boasted that it would collect the debris and eventually display evidence to the world that the balloon was on a spy mission to steal America's military secrets. Well, where's the evidence now, Mssrs. Biden, Blinken and Austin?
