White House says ‘thousands’ of objects in skies could be used car lot balloons not aliens

There are hundreds, “if not thousands,” of unknown objects soaring in the skies — but they’re likely just used car balloons or other benign crafts and not aliens visiting Earth, White House officials said Monday.
“There are no UFOs. This is not an invasion of the aliens,” White House Homeland Security Adviser Liz Sherwood-Randall said in a virtual briefing with governors after the US military shot down three flying objects last weekend, according to Fox News.
“I mean, it’s funny, but it’s not funny because people are communicating this on platforms that are widely viewed,” Sherwood-Randall said.
But despite Sherwood-Randall’s assurance to the elected officials, the government is still unable to identify the trio of recently-downed objects.
The first was shot down off Alaska’s Arctic coastline Friday, the second over Canada’s Yukon Territory Saturday and the third over Lake Huron on Sunday.
On the call to governors Monday, Sherwood-Randall said there are “hundreds, if not thousands” of objects in the sky.
Most are believed to be mundane and could be things like “used car lot balloons” to aircraft launched by commercial businesses, she added.

So is she implying that we’re spending $500k & closing airspace to shoot down used car lot balloons?
This gets better & better…

Such a laughing stock

This admin is so bad. Info released to the press is completely self serving.
No accountability.

I recover a dozen or more balloons from my property every year.

Used car lot balloons? At the biggest those are what? 6 feet in diameter.

So why did Trump create the Space Force? Was this to monitor the used car balloons, filled with swamp gas, to float around the Stratosphere? Or was it for something else?
WTF is going on?

“It’s true that there are things that are being identified that don’t resemble anything else, that largely don’t present a threat, and we have to figure out what to do about them,” the White House advisor told governors. “And it turns out, there are hundreds, if not thousands, of them.”
They don’t resemble anything else.
Which means among the things they don’t resemble - used car lot balloons.
The narrative simply contradicts itself.

This thing has a higher IQ than anyone in the Brandon administration

These hundreds of used car lots need to secure their damn balloons better. We need common sense balloon tie down laws.

“SUNDAY! SUNDAY!! SUNDAYYY!!! Come to the lot and get your pick of a selection of over 40 used models of all shapes, sizes and colors…. We’re not just talking about cars. We are talking about balloons too.”

They realize the general public flies on airlines millions of times a day and seeing a large balloon is not normal?
Furthermore we don’t have to shoot a t a ballon without doing a flyby to get a visual first? I mean come on

Seems highly unlikely. I didn’t click the link, but did they provide any data or evidence to support this theory. Are car lots really releasing that many balloons that they are a constant presence in the skies numbering in the hundreds or thousands?
