U.S. Fighter Jets Shoot Down Another ‘High-Altitude Object’ Over Lake Huron

EXCERPT:

ATWOOD: "Yeah, so this would be the third high-altitude unidentifiable object that's been shot down over the course of the last few days here. This one shot down just this afternoon, according to a Pentagon official and a congressional source briefed on the matter, over Lake Huron. Of course, that is in-between northern Michigan and Canada. This comes just after we've been talking about, in recent hours, the FAA had put a temporary flight restriction into place around the area of Michigan due to what they said were NORAD operations. They didn't identify those operations at the time. It now appears  it's because they were headed to shoot down this object. We really don’t know much about this operation. Right now we don’t even know exactly what kind of fighter jets carried out this operation. But it's significant because we have seen just this incredibly heightened sense of vigilance around U.S. airspace over the course of the last eight days or so, and it was prompted, of course, by that Chinese spy balloon that was taken down off the coast of South Carolina on Saturday. We've heard from Congresswoman Slotkin of Michigan saying that she had been in touch with the Department of Defense that is keeping an extremely close eye on the object above Lake Huron. And then we also heard, in a tweet from another member of Congress from Michigan, Congressman Jack Bergman, saying that he has been in contact with DOD regarding these operations, the military has, in his words, 'decommissioned another object over Lake Huron.' He said he appreciates their decisive action by fighter pilots. So, we're looking to learn a lot more from this. We expect to hear from the Pentagon or from the White House today. As I've said, this was the third object that has been taken down since Friday over U.S. airspace or Canadian airspace.”
