The Chinese statement that it is an errant weather balloon is plausible. McCarthy and the Hawks are acting like it's a Death Star. Blinken's trip got postponed. Biden and Xi should just do a few balloons and chill.
Hopefully they're studying the telemetry it's sending (satellite? ground? etc), and all the great Tom Clancyesque goodness that goes with international pissing contests!
Anyway, pilots are now reporting it's down to 50k feet
I'm not linking to faux news entertainment but that's the only "news" source I have seen reporing the US jammed the bawoon's ability to transmit signals earlier in the week.
