US Moves to Recover Chinese Balloon While Weighing Retaliation​

(Bloomberg) -- The US sent divers to salvage what they believe is spy equipment from the Chinese balloon shot down off South Carolina, as pressure mounted on President Joe Biden to hit back at Beijing with new export controls on sensitive technology.


The government anticipates finding equipment capable of taking detailed photographs, along with other sensors, one person familiar with the matter said. US lawmakers are already demanding to know if the balloon’s payload contains technology from the US or its allies, another person said. Both asked not to be identified because the administration doesn’t want to reveal exactly what it suspects the balloon was carrying.

The balloon, said to be the size of at least two school buses, and its sensors are lying in 50 feet (15 meters) of water and scattered over a seven-mile (11-kilometer) area off Myrtle Beach. Divers and cranes operating from the surface were expected to haul it up in the coming days, potentially giving intelligence analysts crucial insight into Chinese spying capabilities.

While China says the device was a climate-research “airship” that strayed off course, the US argues it was part of a broader spying program by Beijing. With that in mind, Biden administration was calibrating how severely and swiftly to retaliate, people familiar with the matter said.

In a sign of more tension to come, the Chinese Foreign Ministry sharpened its tone Sunday after an American F-22 fighter jet popped the balloon with a Sidewinder missile and sent its payload crashing into the Atlantic Ocean. Beijing called the decision a “clear overreaction” and said it reserved the right to respond.

GOP leaders left literally speechless by Biden-era job growth​

For those rooting for the U.S economy, Friday morning’s report on job growth was worth celebrating. Not only did we learn that the economy created over 4.8 million jobs in 2022, we also learned that 2023 is off to a robust start: The Bureau of Labor Statistics’ preliminary tally showed 517,000 new jobs in January alone.

Adding to the good news was the unemployment rate: In January 2021, when President Joe Biden was inaugurated, the unemployment rate was 6.3%. It now stands at 3.4% — a level the United States did not reach at any point throughout the 1970s, 1980s, or 1990s. In fact, as we discussed on Friday, the last time the jobless rate was this low was May 1969. (We hadn’t yet landed on the moon and Woodstock was still a few months away.)

All told, according to the latest data, the U.S. economy has created over 12 million jobs since January 2021 — nearly double the combined total of the first three years of Donald Trump’s term, when Republicans insisted we were experiencing the single greatest economy in the history of Western Civilization.

It was against this backdrop that Republican National Committee Chairwoman Ronna McDaniel released a written statement in response to the January jobs report. “The Biden-Harris economic agenda has caused nothing but pain and misery for American families,” the RNC chair said.

In other words, the RNC was confronted with evidence that the unemployment rate has fallen to a 54-year low. McDaniel, who was born in 1973, has literally never seen a jobless rate this good. Her first instinct, however, was to respond to the good news by focusing on “pain and misery.”

But as odd as the RNC’s statement was, at least the part was willing to acknowledge the existence of the jobs report — which is more than we can say about congressional Republican leaders.

In keeping with the recent trend, House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy and Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell responded to the job numbers by saying literally nothing about the good news. No news releases, no tweets and no public comments. They literally found themselves speechless.

This wasn’t the first time. Revisiting our recent coverage, GOP leaders have spent nearly all of the Biden era pretending not to notice extraordinarily good job growth.

Four years ago, when the unemployment rate reached 3.6%, House Speaker Kevin McCarthy saw it as a triumph. Now that the unemployment rate is 3.4%, and the California Republican seems reluctant to even recognize the good news.

Imagine that.

MSN

We need job growth to rival the soaring prices of gasoline, groceries, oh, just about everything!

Yeah, they're trying to claim this happened 3 times with Trump, but that's false.

I have heard the same. They could also say , just about anything.

Fox & Friends Outraged General Milley Apparently Pushed Back on Biden’s Order to Shoot Down Chinese Spy Balloon: ‘Find a Way to Take it Out!’​

The aftermath of the balloon’s traversing the country was the A1 story for the curvy couch Monday morning, which involved Fox & Friends co-hosts taking turns to deride and mock recent reports that Chinese spy balloons also made their way into the U.S. during the Trump administration.

After Pete Hegseth took the lead in declaring “I don’t buy” the reports, Brian Kilmeade said it was “terrible” if news of these three incursions failed to make it up the chain of command during the Trump years. Kilmeade also noted how high-ranking former Trump officials (including the ex-president) are disputing the notion that Chinese spy balloons floated into the U.S. on their watch.

From there, Kilmeade turned his attention to when Biden spoke with reporters on Saturday about the timeline for his order to shoot down the balloon.

“When I was briefed on the balloon, I ordered the Pentagon to shoot it down on Wednesday as soon as possible,” Biden said at the time. “They decided without doing damage to anyone on the ground; they decided that the best time to do that was it got over the water outside within 12 mile limit.”

Biden’s comments refer to his national security team’s concern about the potential damages from shooting the balloon down over land. Nonetheless, Kilmeade proceeded to bash Milley and say it’s his fault that the balloon wasn’t shot down faster.

I neither agree nor disagree. I have yet to find a news report, dem or rep, that isn’t biased. It makes sense that the balloon wasn’t shot down in a place that it would cause harm to humanity, but weren’t there wide open spaces, prior to the ocean?

well....will admit alot do not want Biden to run again...be in his 80's.....and i doubt he will.....just talking right now......but we will have a dem up n running when the time comes.......even though biden has done a hell of a job considering what he started with....the people see n know that.....if they didn't you would have got your red wave......as it is your party is showing they can not govern....and we are getting ******* done


now....who you going to vote for?.....trump....he has already lost and out of anger...just like he did with the country before he left....he will trash your party................best you can hope for is 2032......

There are other Republicans! My guess DeSantis. Although, my hope, is that one day , our candidates, can move more to middle ground. Im sure we will still argue, that never stops.

all of your bullshit posts today.....from someone who got on here to remain neutral.....well you being a DeSantis off spring it all starts to come out now

 

[austingirl]

we wouldn't have a semiconductor industry to start with without government spending, so this is kinda dumb.

ditto for the airline industry, or the internet, or for wyoming being inhabited by white settlers

if government spending was so bad I'd expect Somalia to be an economic powerhouse

Lol. Yet it’s true. Except the chip industry is another ballgame. We really need our government’s financial support ,and espionage support.
Yes , certainly need government investment in big industries. EX: we lost an enormous bid that was open to the US and Europe ( for ongoing satellite production ). A French aerospace company won the bid, with inferior specs, simply because the French government offered financial backing, while the US government did not.
The chip industry is more complicated. We need the help of Taiwan’s chip manufacturers. Each chip encloses tiny computers, which offer themselves to hacking. Enough said.

I can’t wait for the State of the Union speech tonight and to see ole Debacle Joe pat himself on the back for being the Great Balloon Slayer of our time

Or will he even bring that embarrassment up - guess we’ll haveta wait and see.

Hmmm. Will McCarthy tear up Biden’s speech?

Well, for one, your boy, @m and d contracts with the government, and last he bragged, he was still employed.
You still delivering bread every morning, so Joe's move on stamping down the gas prices was helpful for you to keep up your subpar deliveries.

First you answer THIS QUESTION ... how in HELL can you justify frik'n demanding "proof" and "facts" and "documentation" of anything when you, yourself, NEVER provide a damn ounce of proof to any of the BS you spout from your PIE HOLE?
Maybe its because your PIE HOLE is the same as your BUTT HOLE ... or maybe those BIG WORDS up there are just too hard to comprehend. But one thing is a FACT ... we don't give a rat's ass whether you believe anything you read here. You're IGNORANT! You're so DAMN IGNORANT that you don't even know you're ignorant. A house fly buzzing around a pile of is smarter than you are.
You're nothing but a .... go find a job at Walmarts of something. You couldn't qualify to carry my briefcase during the day. You're just THAT IGNORANT!
