Publisher's Note: Following this noteworthy and infamous story regarding the Chinese Spy Balloon caper, an inarguable embarrassment for the feckless Biden Administration, will be this series of posts, an archival history, chronicling the Misinformational Misadventure that wholly embarrassed this leader of the Democratic Socialists' Authoritarian regime.

    U.S. Air Force General Glen VanHerck, the commander who oversees North American airspace, did not rule out aliens when asked about the unidentified objects shot down over North American airspace in recent days.

    The comments come after the U.S. military shot down an unidentified object over Lake Huron on Sunday, one over Canada on Saturday, and one Friday over Alaska.

    When asked if the U.S. military had ruled out an extraterrestrial origin for the unidentified objects, VanHerck responded: "I'll let the intel community and the counterintelligence community figure that out. I haven't ruled out anything."

    "At this point we continue to assess every threat or potential threat, unknown, that approaches North America with an attempt to identify it," VanHerck continued.

    A U.S. Air Force F-16 fighter jet shot down shot down the unidentified 'octagonal' object over Lake Huron using a Sidewinder missile.

    An anonymous U.S. defense official later told Reuters, "No indication of aliens or extraterrestrial activity with these recent take downs."

    VanHerck said that U.S. officials seemed confident that the objects were not balloons.

    "I'm not going to categorize them as balloons. We're calling them objects for a reason," VanHerck said. "I'm not able to categorize how they stay aloft. It could be a gaseous type of balloon inside a structure or it could be some type of a propulsion system. But clearly, they're - they're able to stay aloft."

    VenHerck said that U.S. officials considered trying to use the fighter jet's machine guns to shoot down the objects so that the objects would be better preserved after they were shot down.

    "We assessed taking a gunshot yesterday in that event, as well as today, and the pilots in each situation felt that that was really unachievable because of the size, especially yesterday in the altitude and also because of the challenge to acquire it visually because it's so small," VanHerck said.

    "We have taken extreme caution to ensure that we limit potential collateral damage, so today, we worked closely with the FAA to clear out the airspace," he added. "I gave direction specifically to the pilots to use their visual acuity to check for mariners on the ground, airplanes in the air to clear with their radars as well. And when they were comfortable, that we can minimize collateral damage, they selected the best weapon today that was the AIM 9x (missile). And they took the shot."

Among the many other lackluster performance standards by the Biden Administration - the most recent, allowing the Chinese Spy Balloon unfettered access to the skies above this Sovereign Republic - Joe Biden's foreign policy is considered by most true experts to be mediocre to abysmal at best. If one were to give a fair assessment of the quality of this apex duty of this Executive Branch: What would be your opinion of the Biden Administration's Foreign Policy initiatives and, or obvious faux pas?

  President Biden is a Foreign Policy expert of consummate skill just like his brother, Jim, and his son, Hunter.

  America's First Idiot President is corruptly committed to making the World far less safe, while surrendering OUR United States of America's sovereignty whenever, wherever possible.

  Mr. Biden is MY President because I pay close attention to only what rewards me, thus demanding as little sacrifice as is my nature to offer, or shrug.
