Sorry, team Biden — Americans don’t trust you on the drones or anything else
Published Dec. 13, 2024, 7:10 p.m. ET
Gaslighting as usual, the White House is telling Americans freaked out by the drones hovering ominously over parts of New York and New Jersey: Everything’s fine! Just trust us!
Since the first known spotting Nov. 18, at least 3,000 sightings have followed in New Jersey alone, and it’s spread to Staten Island and The Bronx.
Guesses as to what’s going on proliferate, some more believable than others: more Chinese surveillance, launches from an Iranian mothership parked off the East Coast, and so on.
Is this a case for Fox Mulder and Dana Scully?
Pushed by local leaders to address exactly what the heck has been happening in US airspace for nearly a month, National Security Communications Adviser John Kirby had the nerve to brush off concerns.
“Many of the reported sightings are actually manned aircraft that are being operated lawfully,” he insisted, and there’s no evidence the UFOs pose a threat.
Which might be reassuring if he hadn’t just indicated that the White House has no clue where the drones are coming from.
Translation: Don’t believe your lying eyes. Believe us.
Says a communications shop that spent months (at least) hiding and denying the president’s growing mental challenges
Americans aren’t stupid; most people can tell the difference between an airplane or helicopter and the type of eerie, floating objects that have been reported.
And the Biden crew has absolutely blown its credibility on this front: Earlier this year, the White House stayed hush-hush about a Chinese spy balloon that it knew was taking a tour of American military bases.
They fully planned to keep it a secret forever, only to be foiled when civilians spotted the craft.
Who's sending the UFOs?
For that matter, why trust a White House that lied (again, knowingly) about how Joe would never pardon Hunter?
Not to mention years of gaslighting about the border being “under control” and months of bull about inflation being “transitory.”
If the US government actually has no idea what the drones are or who’s operating them, that’s a scandalous national-security failure.
But the feds have the resources to figure it out. Get on it.
People are scared: Car-sized objects that could be armed or equipped with surveillance gear are literally hanging over their heads.
Shame on Govs. Phil Murphy and Kathy Hochul, too: While other local pols clamor for more information from the feds, Hochul has been mum about the whole thing, and Murphy didn’t even attend a Wednesday briefing for local officials hosted by his office.
They should both be putting the Biden administration’s feet to the fire. Americans deserve real answers as to what’s going on in their skies. Their government owes them at least a plan for finding out.

The ClearanceJobs Guide to UFOs (and Where to Work to See Them)
Dec 13, 2024
So you want to hunt space aliens, but can’t find anyone to pay you to do it. You wouldn’t be the first.
While there are no listings on ClearanceJobs for “UFO hunter” (or “UAP hunter”—unexplained aerial phenomena), there are places where sightings happen often enough that hunting little green men may as well be in the job description.
The ClearanceJobs Guide to UFOs (and Where to Work to See Them)
Here are a few places known for UFO sightings, and a few jobs you can expect to find there.
You’ll need a clearance or (eligibility for one), because of course you need a clearance to work where they’re hiding the flying saucers.
-
Nellis Air Force Base
This entire article could consist of nine words: Just get a job at Nellis Air Force Base. Where do I even start. UFOlogists divide alien species by their distinct characteristics.
There are the Grays—the short, skinny creatures with giant, glossy eyes. The Reptilians, who might secretly control the government (if my brake lines fail mysteriously, you’ll know the truth).
And, among others, the Tall Whites, which are… well… tall and white. There is (allegedly) a Tall White base at Nellis.
I’m not saying for sure that there is! But if there is, you would do well to work there.
Because that cleared job for an administrative assistant might be for an Air Force officer.
But it might be for someone—or something—a bit more exotic. Among the companies hiring at Nellis are AECOM and Lockheed Martin.
As of June 2018, most jobs listed in the ClearanceJobs database are Top Secret (of course!) and orbit the aviation field—especially for aircraft engineers, mechanics, and technicians.
(The F-35 is responsible for many of these jobs. That’s a pretty advanced plane. Wonder where we learned to make it?)
-
Denver International Airport
The Reptilians live beneath Denver International Airport. Allegedly!
I’m not saying there are space aliens who live in subterranean airport bunkers connected by a labyrinth of tunnels, but there are definitely tunnels down there, and maybe bunkers.
Reptilians remains a question mark—for now. Get a job there and perhaps you can answer the greatest question to yet vex humankind.
The vast majority of posted Denver jobs are in the information technology field. Lockheed Martin alone employs over 9,000 in the state.
They first set up shop in Denver in the mid-1950s at the request of the Air Force, who wanted to bring its rocket capability inland, safe from enemy attack.
An hour south of Denver (if you want a long commute) is Colorado Springs, home of the Air Force Academy.
No branch of the military is more associated with flying saucers than the Air Force. It can’t be a coincidence.

Chicago O’Hare International Airport
Aliens love them some airports, and why not? How better to night-land your spacecraft than among the camouflage of 747s and A380s? O’Hare was home to a relatively recent UFO mass sighting.
According to excellent The Outsiders Guide to UFOs, by James Abbott, a dozen airport employees in 2006 witnessed a silver flying saucer hovering directly over Gate C-17.
It was reported to the tower, possibly photographed by a pilot, and the FAA very suspiciously failed to investigate.
I mean, the feds will investigate your dry shampoo now, but not an obvious alien spaceship? Interesting.
Either they already know, or they don’t want to know. But you can. And if you know computer hardware or software, you won’t hurt for job opportunities.
One of the largest companies hiring is Flash Technology Group, a woman-owned information technology and cybersecurity company with offices in Chicago.
The jobs uniformly require Top Secret clearance, so plan accordingly.
-
Tucson, AZ
Earlier this year, the following conversation occurred over Tucson, Airzona:
Pilot: Was anybody, uh, above us, who passed above us thirty seconds ago?
Air Traffic Control: Negative.
Pilot: Well, something did.
Co-Pilot: It was a UFO.
Now UFO doesn’t have to mean space aliens. But it could! One guy recently recorded a flying saucer zipping about.
Tucson in the last two years has had prodigious UAP activity. Something is going on out there. If you are hunting UFOs, this is the year to get to Arizona.
According to the ClearanceJobs database, the Tucson job market is hot with jobs from Lockheed Martin, Raytheon, and U.S. Customs and Border Protection.
It’s a great city for electrical engineers and aerial reconnaissance experts—the Air National Guard / Air Force Reserve Command Test Center, where weapons systems are evaluated for the Air Reserve Component, is located there.
And if the Air Force happened to acquire alien technology, after all, they would have to test it somewhere.
One more thing: If none of these areas are to your liking, you can always get a job at the FBI. Before Fox Mulder worked on the X-Files, he was in the Violent Crimes Unit. You can start as field agent and work your way up to space aliens.

Are drones over New Jersey alien tech? UFO expert says there's 'something nefarious about this'
Updated: 08:38 EST, 14 December 2024
The White House has ruled out foreign adversaries and hobbyists as the cause of the drone invasion in New Jersey, leaving many residents to speculate it could be aliens.
The internet has been flooded with images and videos showing bright orbs and triangle-shaped craft having in the night sky that move in bizarre flight patterns.
George Noory, host of Coast-to-Coast AM and a leading voice of the unexplained, told DailyMail.com: 'It's bizarre. There's something else very, very nefarious about this.'
The drones are avoiding capture, he said, adding, 'They shut their lights off, they are undetectable in some cases. It's very, very bizarre. This could be an act of war for all I know.'
But alien tech? Norry said it doesn't add up. 'I'm going to rule out extraterrestrial. It doesn't sound like that,' he said. 'It sounds more like a military effort than anything else.'
Pentagon Deputy Press Secretary Sabrina Singh said the initial assessment is that 'this is not the work of a foreign adversary or a foreign entity.'
The FBI and Homeland Security are investigating, and politicians have conflicting takes.
White House National Security spokesman John Kirby said this week that many of the reported drones are manned aircraft being operated lawfully.
'A congressman out of New Jersey believes that there is an Iranian ship parked off the East Coast of the US and it is sending these drones over certain military bases, Donald Trump's golf course, and strange strategic locations,' Noory said.
The drones were first spotted in northern New Jersey, near Morris County, in November.
Residents said the drones gather in clusters at night and fly with their lights off. They appear to avoid detection by helicopter and radio.
'There's some helicopters that have been seen in the area, and these things seem to avoid those,' said Noory.
A few spots drones have surveyed: military research facility Picatinny Arsenal, President-elect Donald Trump's golf course in Bedminster, and around critical infrastructure including water reservoirs, electrical transmission lines, police stations and military bases.
'Drones are legal as long as they're registered with the FAA and are allowed to fly around certain spots,' Noory said. 'But this is weird.'
There are some notable no-fly zones even for registered drones: around airports, military installations, certain landmarks, nuclear plants and stadiums during sports games.
The FAA issued a temporary ban on flights over Trump's golf course and Picatinny Arsenal Military Base after requests from federal partners.
Noory said the fact that there's been no official statement on what's going on could mean the government doesn't want to worry U.S. citizens.
'Maybe there's something that's a little more nefarious, a little more dangerous and they don't want to alert and panic the public,' he continued.
'I'm hoping to God that our government is investigating this very thoroughly. I have to assume they are — they're just not letting us all know what's going on.'
'The other thing you've got to be concerned about is, drones carry missiles in some cases. Hope to God that these aren't warfare.'
One of the strangest parts of this story is the size of the reported drones, Noory said.
'They obviously are not from hobbyists. There's not a bunch of kids flying these little toys around,' he added.
1/2
Sen. Richard Blumenthal of Connecticut is one of several politicians who have called for shooting down the drones if necessary.
Is that even possible? Would we have time to disable them? 'Oh, yeah, we've got the technology to take these out,' Noory says. 'There's no question.'
So, why is the government permitting them to stick around at this point? Will we get answers, or is this destined to remain another unexplained phenomenon?
'I think we may be watching them right now,' Noory says. 'But eventually, we're going to take action and probably start shooting these things down.'
Meanwhile, a Facebook group with 32.8K members and growing is buzzing with theories and concerns. One poster, Madison Leigh, said she'd heard reports the drones were leaving chemtrails.
For most folks, it's fear of the unknown that has them commenting and sharing stories on Facebook.
Jenna Diehl of Pohatcong, New Jersey posted that she saw hundreds of drones over her house in one night. 'These are not manmade drones. These are huge.'
'We are being watched and we are being invaded,' she wrote.
How to report a UFO
The more info, the better. If you're making a report be prepared with:
● The date, time, location, duration and a detailed description of the sighting.
● Photos or videos if you have them.
● Names and contact information of anyone else with you at the time who observed the event.
The National UFO Reporting Center (NUFORC) is a civilian organization that's been collecting UFO data for decades. NUFORC shares info with various agencies.
The Department of Defense's All-domain Anomaly Resolution Office (AARO) has a reporting tool available for U.S. government employees, service members or contractors with direct knowledge of U.S. government programs or activities related to UAP.
If you're worried there's an immediate threat, call your local law enforcement.

Joe Rogan reveals who he thinks is behind New Jersey drone invasion as he calls White House explanation 'sus'
Updated: 15:56 EST, 13 December 2024
Celebrity podcaster Joe Rogan said he's not buying the government's official explanation for the wave of mysterious drones UFOs spotted over New Jersey.
Rogan reposted a video of the White House's national security communications advisor John Kirby telling reporters that the sightings posed no 'national security or public safety threat' — but pushed back on Kirby's effort to allay Americans' fears.
'This is what the kids call "sus,"' Rogan posted to X.com, then floated his own theory.
'I want to believe it's adderalled up incels holed up in a basement f** with "the man" more than I want it to be aliens,' Rogan joked. '#iwanttobelieve.'
Long a trusted source for interviews with investigative journalists who cover UFOs, military witnesses and government whistleblowers, Rogan garnered over 1.8 million views for his X post on the ongoing drone crisis since he put it online Thursday night.

Moment mystery drones loiter over US airbase in Britain: Global alarm over UFOs after sightings in New Jersey as experts say they may be a prelude to Russian or Iranian ATTACK
Updated: 09:56 EST, 14 December 2024
This is the moment a swarm of drones fly over an American air base which is set to become home to US nuclear weapons.
The footage obtained by MailOnline features what is suspected to be four drones, brazenly flying with bright lights, in the early evening darkness above RAF Lakenheath, Suffolk.
Reports about American nuclear weapons being deployed to the base for the first time since the Cold War have heightened fears that Russia could be behind the drone activity.
While two of the drones to the left of the screen in the video appear stationary, the other two are shown moving and passing each other on the night of November 28.
The bright light at the top of the screen is believed to be the planet Venus which can be seen in the south-western sky in the month of November.
The planet which is the brightest in the earth’s solar system is often confused with being an aircraft or rocket.
The US Air Force admitted last month that drones had buzzed three of its UK bases – RAF Lakenheath and RAF Mildenhall in Suffolk and nearby RAF Feltwell, Norfolk.
The sightings which are said to have started on November 20 and continued for several days have followed similar drone ‘invasions’ in New Jersey.
Unknown craft are reported to have circled the US Army's Picatinny Arsenal in the state which manufactures and researches weapons including arms supplied to Ukraine.
Some reports have talked of 'car-sized' drones over New Jersey since mid-November, sometimes appearing in groups and often remaining in the same place for hours at a time.
They are also said to have been spotted around New York, Texas and Oklahoma.
A New Jersey police department sparked concern after it revealed that a drone it sent up to track a mystery aircraft 'easily' evaded their device before disappearing into thin air.
Ocean County Sheriff Michael Mastronardy said a drone was launched after one of his officers saw 50 unmanned aerial vehicles, 'coming off the ocean'.
The officer dialed 911 to alert state police, the FBI and the Coast Guard.The maritime agency then reported seeing spotted 13 drones following their boat, estimating that the devices had a wingspan of eight feet.
Matronardy told NewsNation's Rich McHugh the force put up an 'industrial grade' drone to follow one of the devices, but it quickly slipped through their grasp.
The incident is just one of many drone sightings concerning locals in the Garden State and beyond.
'If this is not our military, then it's even more scary,' McHugh said.
Intelligence analysts from both the US and UK have pointed the finger at interference by Russian despot Vladimir Putin.
The video at RAF Lakenheath was taken shortly after British authorities had announced that 60 soldiers were being sent to investigate the sightings at the three UK bases.
Two days after it was taken, an RAF Chinook apparently flew British special forces troops to join the probe at RAF Lakenheath which is home to the to the 48th Fighter Wing’s F-15E Strike Eagle and F-35A Lightning II aircraft.
Flight tracker records showed the Chinook leaving RAF Odiham, Hampshire, and flying to Poole, Dorset, to apparently pick up SBS troops before heading to Hereford where the SAS are based, and then on to the US base.
Earlier this month, villagers near RAF Lakenheath described seeing the drones on repeated nights, along with an increase in security patrols by MoD police. The base stated this week that there had been no new sightings in recent days.
A retired British spymaster yesterday claimed that Kremlin intelligence services were potentially gearing up for a fresh wave of incursions into UK airspace.

Philip Ingram, a former British military intelligence Colonel, said the recent drone sightings had 'all the hallmarks' of an operation by Russia's secretive GRU spy agency.
'It's a distinct possibility if not a certain probability this is all down to Russian intelligence,' he said. '
They and the GRU are just a bunch of petulant little boys. They're trying to suggest they have the ability to disrupt and influence through a level of nuisance action.'
He added: 'I would say we will see another flurry of activity in the next few months for sure. Whether drones or something else, I suspect something else.'
Col Ingram said Russians or their agents could also be using the UAVs (unmanned aerial vehicles) to test Western forces' responses and capabilities.
He suggested they were potentially carrying out such operations to massage Russian tyrant Putin's bruised ego, after his failures in Ukraine.
He also claimed the drones were part of a wider spate of small, 'seemingly isolated' incidents which could be part of a larger coordinated test of disruption tactics.
'There’s a pattern building up and from an intelligence perspective, I don’t like patterns,' Col Ingram added.
'Each one of these things in isolation won’t massively disrupt our way of life and none will potentially raise a big question mark but if you suddenly put them together and they all happen at once, then the level of disruption you could have could be really serious.'
The sightings follow a series of suspicious incidents worldwide, which have seen hackers carrying out cyber attacks, sabotaging underwater internet cables and bomb scares triggering chaos at Gatwick and in central London.
The FBI and other agencies are said to investigating the sightings in America, but the Department of Homeland Security said on Wednesday: 'We have no more information as to where these drones are coming from, where they're launching from, where they're landing.'
Britain this week unveiled its newest weapon in the war against drones - a high powered laser which is able to scorch the devices out of the sky in seconds.
The high-energy device, mounted on the roof of a Wolfhound armoured vehicle, was successfully tested at the Radnor Range in mid-Wales.
Soldiers from 16 Royal Artillery - an air defence regiment based near Portsmouth, Hampshire - were able to track and destroy hovering targets.
Retired police lieutenant and intelligence analyst Tim McMillan told DailyMail.com the descriptions of the UFOs in Jersey 'sound exactly like Russian Orlan-10 drones' — secretive craft that fly in packs of three to five.
The Orlan-10 craft comes with 'standard positional lighting' — a red light on the left (port) wingtip, a green light on the right (starboard) wingtip, and white taillights, similar to the lights seen on ordinary aircraft and Jersey's 'mystery drones.'
Experts suggest that Russia could be carrying out an intelligence-gathering mission known as 'ferreting', meant to intentionally trigger and test a rival's airspace defence procedures and response times.
Or the Kremlin could simply be spying on allies of Ukraine who are aiding the fight against Russia's invasion.
While experts could not rule out a theory that Iran was behind the attacks, argued by NJ Congressman Jeff Van Drew, but denied by the Pentagon, White House officials have long noted that Russia and Iran collaborate on military drone development.
'Russia has been very aggressive and reckless with its responses to Western support of Ukraine,' Lt McMillan told DailyMail.com. 'This isn't something I see discussed in US media, but it's well documented and openly discussed here in Europe.'

From underworld portals to UFO landing zones, 'lakes of blood' and 'undiscovered pyramids' in Egypt, the strangest Google Earth images
Updated: 04:10 EST, 14 December 2024
Google Earth, although a useful locator tool, has on occasion boggled the minds of internet users who have stumbled across images of objects and scenes which appear to hold no logical explanation.
People are free to explore the planet in a few clicks of a button on the site, but some users have found themselves accidentally discovering chilling and disturbing sights.
Some UFO hunters claim the tool has captured proof of alien life while others have used the world mapping feature to investigate some of the spookiest areas on earth.
From 'lakes of blood' to 'undiscovered pyramids' in Egypt - ancient mysteries have been quizzed and questioned as internet users scratch their heads trying to unlock the truth behind the bizarre finds.
And it's not just creepy scenarios that have been unearthed on the virtual maps, but man-made installations too, from multi-billion-pound companies to local artists.
In one strange discovery, a portal to an ominous underworld was spotted tearing through an unknown street as onlookers gathered to watch.
Meanwhile, in another, a suspicious door buried in the deep snow of Antarctica seemed as if it could transport a visitor to the home of Bigfoot.
And if those weren't mind-boggling enough, a giant pentagram found on the ground in Kazakhstan sparked wild theories around satanism - but the truth was eventually revealed to be far more innocent.

The lack of transparency from our White House and Pentagon on the drones in our airspace is more than shameful.
They don't trust us, we don't trust them.

It is incredibly messed up the Pentagon is not being straight forward with the American people.
@Congressman_JVD is informing very concerned citizens about the drones.
To be clear, I do NOT think these are not UAP’s.
Either way, these games end when Trump is sworn into office and those drones will be shot down.
