“A Learning Lesson Where No One Got Hurt”

“According to a U.S. official, the directed energy/laser counter drone technology was in CBP's control when the balloon was mistakenly shot down near El Paso, Texas earlier this week,” per Fox’s @Liz_Friden

“In January, Defense Secretary Hegseth signed an agreement for the Pentagon to loan the directed energy counter drone platform to DHS, the U.S. official tells Fox News. The official said the agreement was signed sometime in the last 30 days.

Following the shoot down is when FAA closed the airspace, the official said.”

EDIT: A U.S. official could not go into specifics about what exactly the technology used by the U.S. military is, but said directed energy/lasers is accurate to use.
So, why did DOD let the clowns at DHS have their “pew-pew” toy? Because Kegsbreath thought it would be kewl. Bozos all the way down.
U.S. military source just told me the same: this was DHS: “Every General and Admiral at NORTHCOM is pissed that DHS did an operation and told no one because homeland defense is what NORTHCOM does. Even the base commander at Ft. Bliss called the Pentagon and NORTHCOM furious about the airspace thing because he had nothing to do with it -- and the Pentagon and NORTHCOM also didn’t know anything about the airspace closure. It’s like DHS is trying to hide the fact that their spec ops group is there with the laser gun.”
And DOD now wants to obscure the fact they gave it to DHS. DHS has said the weapon was always under DOD control. πŸ€”
Confirming earlier reporting: Airspace was closed by the FAA near El Paso late Tuesday after CBP personnel launched a counter-drone laser weapon without full inter-agency integration, officials say. That weapon had recently been transferred temporarily by the Pentagon to DHS.

Airspace was re-opened this morning. Despite numerous news agencies confirming this today, the Trump administration is saying virtually nothing. Officials believe the weapon was used on something innocuous, probably a mylar balloon.

The Pentagon is not answering questions about the transfer of the weapon.

DHS referred questions to the Pentagon.

There's some frustration among military officials that they're taking a hit for this in the public square, even though they did not use the weapon. That said, this is also seen as a learning lesson where no one got hurt.
Okay then… 🀦‍♂️
BREAKING: El Paso Airport had an unexpected TFR issued for the next 10 days.

We are now at DEFCON Reddit.

All At-Home Detective Units are hereby activated.

Sleeper Cells – Couch Intelligence Agency (CIA) are to report immediately to Telegram and X and initiate Engagement Protocols:
