Biden shot down our balloon flying over the Yukon, say hobbyists

Joe Biden may have ordered the US Air Force to shoot down a hobbyist group’s small balloon by mistake, it has emerged.

US officials said yesterday that efforts by the military to recover the remnants of a large object that was shot down off the South Carolina coast had ended and that analysis of the debris had reinforced suggestions that it was a Chinese spy balloon. They also said the search for a small airborne object shot down over Lake Huron had ended without recovering anything. The US and Canada have also failed to recover any debris from two objects shot down over the Yukon and northern Alaska.

But there is a further balloon that remains unaccounted for. The Northern Illinois Bottlecap Balloon Brigade (NIBBB), a group based in Illinois, said one of its pico balloons went “missing in action” on Feb 11. It disappeared on the same day and in the same area the US military shot down three unidentified objects near Alaska.
