Those are not B-2s. Yes, I know that they are taking photographs from high altitude, but the planform is all wrong, and unless they have put a net paint scheme, they are a different color. Plus, the contrail position is all wrong, it's too close together.

Plus, the man who took the photos spoke to Whiteman Public Affairs and they said no B-2s were in the area when the Texas photos were taken.
