These drones were mysteriously flying over California a few nights ago right near one of our military bases:

Karoline Leavitt, the new WH Press Secretary just issued a statement from President Trump, stating that all the drones in NJ were "authorized to be flown by the FAA for research and various other reasons. Many of these drones were also hobbyists, recreational and individuals who enjoy flying drones. In time, it got worse due to curiosity. This was not the enemy."

"Green-lighted by the FAA for "research purposes"", tells us exactly nothing.

People somehow feel better now, though, despite knowing nothing more about these things than we did yesterday.

Well at least we know they're not from Russian, China or Iran which is what some people were speculating.

My personal favorite was a desperate search for suitcase nukes from the Ukraine. Big Grin

That’s what I was thinking. So either that was total b.s. or there was no communication with local law enforcement. Probably both.

I am going to wager, the FAA was working with various agencies and contractors in efforts to strengthen/harden airport facilities, and airpace(s).

Detection, possibly countermeasures and targeting and acquisition for starters.

Sure it does. It tells us it wasn't a foreign government or little green men. People were all over the map with their guesses. It was us. It was we, and not they. Klaatu barada nikto.

People feel better because it came from a credible source.

Report: Army Contractor Claims Responsibility for 2024’s Mystery Drone Scare

A private company at a high-profile Army conference demonstrated a unique aircraft and allegedly took credit for the mystery drone panic that gripped New Jersey and much of the East Coast in 2024, according to a source.

The New York Post reports that a private contractor at the Army’s UAS and Launched Effects Summit at Fort Rucker has claimed responsibility for the widespread mystery drone scare that swept across New Jersey in November 2024. During a live demonstration at the summit, the unnamed company showcased an aerial craft with an unconventional appearance and unorthodox flight movements, leaving attendees in awe.

According to a source who attended the event, an employee of the contractor approached a small group after the demonstration and stated, “You remember that big UFO scare in New Jersey last year? Well, that was us.” The employee further revealed that the company was testing their capabilities over the Garden State in November 2024 and was not obligated to disclose their activities to the public due to a private government contract.

The roughly 20-foot, four-winged aircraft displayed at the summit was captured in video footage provided to the Post. The craft was seen effortlessly navigating through the skies just above the tree line, capturing the attention of numerous soldiers on the ground. The military veteran and drone expert who witnessed the demonstration described the aircraft as having an “uncanny valley feeling” and noted that it seemed to disappear when turning, potentially explaining the reports of UFO sightings in New Jersey.

The mystery drone scare in New Jersey began on November 13, 2024, over the Army base Picatinny Arsenal in Morris County and continued throughout the state until early December. In January, President Trump’s FAA announced that many of the reported mystery drone sightings were attributed to hobbyists, recreational pilots, and private individuals. However, the revelation at the Army summit sheds new light on the true nature of at least some of these sightings.

The Army declined to comment on the matter, citing the ongoing federal government shutdown.

My guess is DARPA, and we are about to be told something stupid like a new tech toy for sale in time for black Friday.

Okay, this BS covers the New Jersey drones. What about the Colorado and Nebraska sightings? Or did I miss something?
