Here, here. Home, Trump. Thank you. Good to see you.

Trump: Good to see you.

Interviewer: Can you comment on the drones that are flying around New Jersey ports? It seems like the American people have a big distrust of the government. The government knows what is happening.

Trump: Look, our military knows where they took off from. If it's a garage, they can go right into that garage. They know where it came from and where it went.

For some reason, they don't want to comment, and I think they'd be better off saying what it is. Our military knows, and our president knows, and for some reason, they want to keep people in suspense.

I can't imagine it's the enemy because, if it was the enemy, they'd blast it out. Even if they were late, they'd blast it.

Something strange is going on. For some reason, they don't want to tell the people, and they should because the people are really— I mean, they happen to be over Bedminster. They're very— they're very close to Bedminster.

Interviewer: I think maybe I won’t spend the weekend in Bedminster. Have you decided to cancel my—

Interviewer (cont.): Have you received an intelligence briefing on the drones?

Trump: I don’t want to comment on that.

Interviewer: Have you been— do you have any reason to think they—

Interviewer (cont.): Two— two— two quick questions, first—

What I would like to hear from President Trump.

“I don’t take office until January 20. If the public has not been fully informed by that date I will fully brief everyone with a public statement. The American people have a right to know—and national security can no longer be an excuse to run government like a Communist Politboro.”

Bottom Line: Trump says we know they are U.S. Drones and the Government is not being transparent and SHOULD tell America what’s up.

I imagine the government has decided to “classify” the information.
They have shared this classified information with Trump.

As a mere “president-elect”, I think Trump would be in legal trouble if he revealed classified information to the media. I bet the Democrats would just love that. They could try to impeach him right away.

Once he’s president, he can declassify anything he wants, and he can say anything he wants. But his hands seem tied for about another month.

We are now living through the biggest problem with the Biden presidency. And that is, nobody is accountable. If the public has no idea who is in charge then they pay no price for being secretive or even incompetent. We can’t just vote someone out of office. We can’t sue someone we don’t know.

We should not worry about foreign drones. We should worry about a foreign presidency. By definition its not a democracy, if we don’t know who is running the country. Biden will spend the next few years in a home before he is finally laid to rest. He will never care what happens.

It sure seems like the USA is under the control of foriegn special interest groups deeply embedded in positions of power and authority.

the politicians, military officers and L.E. are just dimwitted actors playing a part in a staged play being produced by the enemy within

Trump is a minor threat, but I am sure they would like to have him killed by a drone or "lone nut" to get him out of the way

With Jill at his side and the ability to live in luxury with paid helpers, biden will never have to be in a nursing home! He probably won’t live very long anyway. clinton may well survive him.

It could be drug cartels: 1. They have experience moving drugs with airplanes, and have gained experience with drones on the border in the last four years. 2. Drones may be coming from the south to converge on the NYC area. 3. It explains why the government doesn’t want to tell the public.

This administration is like the Mafia. If you’re a “made” guy (a friend of ours) you have immunity to do anything you want. Hunter et Al are made guys.

He should ask Musk to comment if he really wants it known.

in his past presidency, his Administration bragged about withholding important intel and lying about other info, I highly doubt it will be any different this time and anything Trump does to try and replace enemy embedded cabinet and take the US government back will cause more vicious attacks from the FBI/CIA,DOJ and “news” media as well as continued assassination attempts by “lone nuts”

John Ferguson, of Saxon Unmanned posted a video with his theory. It does make sense.

"An MQ-9 can adopt various mission kits and combinations of weapon and sensor payloads to meet combat requirements. Its Raytheon AN/AAS-52[citation needed] multi-spectral targeting sensor suite includes a color/monochrome daylight TV, infrared, and image-intensified TV with laser rangefinder/laser designator to designate targets for laser guided munitions.[citation needed] The aircraft is also equipped with the Lynx Multi-mode Radar that contains synthetic aperture radar (SAR) that can operate in both spotlight and strip modes, and ground moving target indication (GMTI) with Dismount Moving Target Indicator (DMTI) and Maritime Wide-Area Search (MWAS) capabilities.[41]

The Reaper was used as a test bed for Gorgon Stare, a wide-area surveillance sensor system.[42] Increment 1 of the system was first fielded in March 2011 on the Reaper and could cover an area of 16 km2 (6.2 sq mi); increment 2, incorporating ARGUS-IS and expanding the coverage area to 100 km2 (39 sq mi), achieved initial operating capability (IOC) in early 2014. The system has 368 cameras capable of capturing five million pixels each to create an image of about 1.8 billion pixels; video is collected at 12 frames per second, producing several terabytes of data per minute.[43] " https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/General_Atomics_MQ-9_Reaper Either one of these, or an F-35A could track all the drones over New Jersey. So yeah, the US Government knows what is going on. Not only have they been dismissive of all the reports, in many cases they have officially and directly lied to the American people.

I saw a drone expert say that since the drones are flying low at night time, they must be one of two things:

1. sniffing for gas leaks.
2. sniffing for nukes.
