Concealing in his jacket?

Nope that not the drones we are looking for. The one's we want are the size of small cars.

I always conceal them in my pants. No one asks me what that is.

Vandenberg’s detection system spotted the drone on Nov. 30

So no detection systems on the East coast eh?

Why would the corrupt disciples of deceit running this government care about what the Chinese spies are doing here?

What we have here is a government sponsored violent invasion of ours border, where these corrupt individuals who’ve hijacked government are providing criminal aliens with tax paid gifts, prizes, housing, food, hotels, gift bags and credit cards.

“traveled to an altitude of about a mile above ground level and began in the Ocean Park public area close to the base”

.

A mile?

5,000 feet with a drone camera?

Some of them are pretty good but that is about 10 times as far as the intended altitude (therefor distance) of a drone one could hide underneath a jacket.

If he was busted in a park with the drone why was he free to get on a flight to China?

Also, no info on what happened to his handler that arrived in the US on Nov 26.

Sounds like the progs are trying to stack up some BS about drones since they got a 1 year setback in the 2025 NDAA.

It's the buzzing sound that gets their attention.

SMERSH, for short.

When I first saw the James Bond movie From Russia With Love as a youngster, I mistakenly thought SMERSH was some stupid Hollywood Acronym, say, trying to one-up the TV show THe Man from U.N.C.L.E..

True story.

Mass deportation can’t happen soon enough. Start with people that represent the biggest threat. Start with Chinese and Muslims. Then get the dreamers. All the while deporting everyone as they are encountered. Any Chinese that were permitted to come are all spies and sabatuers. We should be ending the Ukraine war and aligning Russia and India against China and getting the Abraham states Israel Saudi Arabia Egypt aligned to fave down the Persians.

Here’s the craziest thing. He was caught at the airport, about to leave back to China.

So after court the judge sets bail at $0.

In other words judge says to just let him out.

It was appealed and he wasn’t released yesterday but the judge decided to just let him out and trust him to show up at future court dates.

This after he was caught trying to leave with the photos taken.

Vandenberg base (about six or seven miles outside Santa Maria, California) is in a primarily rural area from which it is very easy to take pictures, especially if a person used a small drone as described in the article. Plus, there are several well-known vantage points wherefrom folks watch space and missile launches.
I’m uncertain just what useful military secrets one could learn, since everyone on earth knows that USA launches both space rockets and missiles from Vandenberg. Like, it is no secret. And Communist China already knows how to launch these things, anyway. Still, yes, if he’s an enemy agent he has to bve shut down! For sure!

I fail to see what the issue is here..

The Chinese can read license plates on that base from orbiting satellites already. What is to be gained from a drone?

The other guy capturing signal intelligence (radio calls), the response on site, response times…all the thing a satellite can’t capture.
