KIRBY: "[Chinese balloon program] was operating during the previous administration, but they did not detect it, we detected it. We tracked it."

This is offensive & he should be held accountable for lying to the people he works for. Tell me HOW they would know these were operating years ago if we never detected them before? Either way, this points to issues in the military brass, not with @realDonaldTrump. More lies from the demolition party.

blame trump? 😂🤣

Serial liar, which is a job requirement for the Biden Administration.

Perhaps I’m missing something obvious, but: if no one “detected” it at the time, how can you now definitively say it happened? Is there something you can go back and look at, and say, “Oh look, there was a Chinese spy balloon over Jabip Iowa in April of 2018”?

More propaganda by the Biden administration.

Kirby you are a hack! Are you telling me that our intelligence wasn't on the job during the last administration? There you have it folks! Instead of protecting our nation our intelligence was supporting the democratic attempt to overthrow a sitting president by bogus impeachments!

Weird that the dod never told trump about it..

That thing was detected by american citizens as soon as it hit Montana and you’re gonna tell me it went undetected by everyone for four years? Hell nah hahahha

"they did not detect it, we detected it." Funny. Isn't the same military that detected it this time, the same military that was on duty during the last administration?

2 years on and they still blame every issue on Trump. Enough. This is a tactical and logistical failure of such magnitude that someone should be removed from their post.
