“But out of an abundance of caution, we have taken additional mitigation steps,” the official noted further. “I’m not going to go into what those are. But we know exactly where this balloon is, exactly what it is passing over. And we are taking steps to be extra vigilant so that we can mitigate any foreign intelligence risk.”
WorldNetDaily added in its report:
The balloon transited over Montana Wednesday. The state houses Malmstrom Air Force Base, where U.S. Minuteman III nuclear missiles are stored, according to the base’s website. North American Aerospace Defensive Command (NORAD) scrambled aircraft, including F-22 Raptors and early warning aircraft, from Nellis Air Force Base when the balloon flew over a remote area of Montana, NBC News first reported. The Billings airport conducted a ground stop, citing a “special military mission,” which was later lifted, according to the defense official. There have been similar instances a “few” times in recent years, including under both the Biden and Trump administrations, the official added. “I think the thing that is different is the altitude and of course, the willingness that put it in the continental United States for an extended period of time,” he said. China is scoping out its biggest enemy, and Biden is doing nothing but watching.
