Large drones invade New Jersey skies and the Biden Administration ignores it

In November 2024, numerous reports of large drones, some the size of small cars, began surfacing in New Jersey and the East Coast of the United States. By mid-November, sightings were also reported near US military bases in the UK, raising questions about potential security risks. Various agencies, including the FBI and Homeland Security, assured the public that the drones did not pose a threat to national security or public safety, emphasizing that many sightings could be misidentified commercial aircraft or hobbyist drones. Local authorities have struggled to determine the origin of these drones. Some reports came from concerned residents noticing unusual flying objects, which seemingly operated under dark conditions, complicating detection efforts. Despite extensive investigations, including over 3,000 tips to the FBI, officials could not ascertain whether one or multiple drones were involved. Speculation has circulated online, with some suggesting the drones could be linked to foreign agents. However, government officials firmly stated that there was no evidence supporting these theories. As sightings in New Jersey linked to similar occurrences in the UK gained traction, state officials like New Jersey Senator Andy Kim and New York Governor Kathy Hochul called for further investigations and clearer communication from federal entities. Concurrently, the Biden administration has maintained its stance, asserting both domestic and foreign safety were not compromised. Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas defended the federal response, downplaying the urgency of the sightings. He indicated that the federal government lacked the authority to engage approaching drones unless they posed an immediate danger. This decisive clarity is intended to reassure a concerned public, though many continue to question the sources and intentions behind these mysterious drone flights.
