@zephyreks Out of curiosity… who exactly do you think you’re hearing from when you hear from the Pentagon? Joe Smoe from down the street? No, it’s a member of the military just like the Brig. Gen.

@zephyreks Dude, you’re a fucking idiot. Here’s the press release from the Pentagon where Brigadier General Pat Ryder says exactly what I’ve been pointing out… that US countermeasures certainly contributed to the balloon not collecting any information. So there you have it, from the official Pentagon press release by the same guy I’ve been telling you about repeatedly but you refuse to believe. 🤡 https://www.defense.gov/News/Transcripts/Transcript/Article/3444912/pentagon-press-secretary-air-force-brig-gen-pat-ryder-holds-a-press-briefing/

@zephyreks 😂 😂 I love how you twist reality to avoid seeing what’s literally right in front of your face.

@zephyreks I’ve already read it. The countermeasures the US took certainly contributed to the lack of data collection.

@zephyreks That means it wasn’t able to collect data in part because of the countermeasures that contributed to preventing it from collecting data. If that was not the case, why wouldn’t the BG have just said, “no it wouldn’t have mattered because it wasn’t trying to collect data.”?

@zephyreks lol I can’t imagine the mental gymnastics you have to jump through to arrive at your worldview. For you to think that in that moment, while being questioned by a reporter about a Chinese balloon and the collection of data that his immediate thought was I need to justify the budget… It’s just astounding.
