Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas downplayed the wave of drone sightings in the tri-state area and emphatically argued the feds can’t just “shoot” them down amid calls by some lawmakers to do just that.

Mayorkas, appearing on CNN Friday night, insisted many people are simply seeing drones that can be purchased at “convenience stores” and most instances are “cases of mistaken identity.”

The Homeland honcho insisted to CNN host Wolf Blizter that his agency has seen no evidence of anomalous activity.

I don't know what convenience stores he shops at that would carry flying drones the size of a car.

Of all the dickweeds in the fjb administration I think I will be most happy to see this one go. Where he goes I don’t care so long as it it out of sight. My fondest hope is that he soon goes to hell where I think he belongs.

You can’t shoot them down because they are all civilian passenger aircraft. I have yet to see video of one that isn’t. Every.Single.One.Of.Them. The hysteria is getting out of hand.

That man is a traitor, plain and simple, with many examples to clearly substantiate it. Indict him, arrest him, try him for treason and hang him.

Using Occam’s Razor, the only logical reason for all his actions of the past four years is he is totally on board with the destruction of America and possibly the world. A more sinister figure in charge of our security can hardly be imagined.
Prayers that we survive another month. He needs to be fired two minutes after 12 Noon on the 20th of January.

Mayorkass does not understand that a laser jack-up is not a shoot down. It’s just a thermal analysis.
