The bizarre secret behind China's spy balloon

Earlier this year America's military defenses were put on notice against a Chinese balloon believed to be on an espionage mission. Gen. Mark Milley talks about what we've learned from an examination of the balloon's wreckage.

Nobody could have predicted this. I have my doubts even when they call it "spying equipment" or whatever considering Chinese claim it was a meteorological balloon, certainly no doubt they would try to paint those tools as such.

    I’m gonna send this article to some people I know, and I already know what they’re going to say: “well they said it wasn’t collecting any data but it was still a spy balloon”. China’s explanation that it was a weather balloon is obviously, objectively true but acknowledging that the US government lies all the time is too much for Americans to accept.
