US fighter jets intercept 8 Russian warplanes 30 miles from Alaska

U.S. F-22 Raptor fighter jets intercepted two Russian bomber formations, comprised of Russian Tu-95 bombers, Su-35 fighter jets, and A-50 airborne early warning and control aircraft, just 30 miles from Alaska.

The Russian Defense Ministry posted a video of their bombers taking off and later being intercepted.

The North American Aerospace Defense Command (NORAD) confirmed it intercepted the Russian aircraft early Wednesday morning in a series of tweets.

“North American Aerospace Defense Command F-22 Raptors, supported by KC-135 Stratotankers and E-3 Airborne Warning and Control System, completed two intercepts of Russian Bomber formations entering the Alaskan Air Defense Identification Zone early this morning,” NORAD tweeted.

Maybe they were heading to Seattle
If so why stop them
They are big boys and can fend for themselves
Remember the movie Red Dawn

We can handle MUCH more, but only if We get involved! My only concern is how soft most of the "right" has become. Why aren't Conservatives from all around WA, and surrounding areas going to Seattle and surrounding them "peacefully" to let them know WE THE PEOPLE are awake, prepared, and ready! We need to show our officials that we're not afraid of these delusional punks! If WE stand up, it will show OUR elected officials that THEY need to stand up, because all we need to do is "trigger" those idiots, and i guarantee they'll get stupid, and once they've done that, it will be shown to the country just how dangerous they truly are! Then out government can justifiably clear them out. If we do nothing, it just shows our elected officials how lazy we are, and that our anger goes no further than our keyboard. Every state that's having this crap, the conservative voters should should be right there in their face, because as long as we keep looking like we're afraid to stand face to face with them, they'll continue to do this!

Respectfully I disagree
The US is going down big time.
The virus was about preventing the currency collapse. Don’t forget the Fed was printing $300 Billion per Night in the Repo Markets during October through December 2019. The US Dollar was hyperinflating and China / Russia / India has emptied Fort Knox of gold.

The US ran this drill worldwide (COVID-19).
The US Military is so enormous the other countries can do nothing to stop the debasement of the reserve currency. The global economy of communism is collapsing. The US has been communist (Zionist) for a long time.

Who wants to take a bet? I’m betting the US is hit with at least two Category 4 hurricanes this season. I know the odds will be low, but I’d rather be right than rich.

Oddly this was not news during my navy days 1977-1981, though it happened occasionally. Must be not covering something else, like Stolts, Rice, Comey will be required to testify.

I agree the US has been communist for a long time. Hollywood was investigated decades ago and that is exactly where they have mind controlled the public.
