New Jersey Sen. Andy Kim went out on drone patrol with local police on Thursday night and believes some lights in the sky he came across were possibly drones, but most others — after “deeper analysis” — appear to have just been planes. Despite his findings, the Democrat, who was sworn in earlier this month, didn’t discount the possibility of drone activity in his state and called out the federal government for not offering answers to the civilians who’ve been reporting sightings for the past several weeks.

Comments:

The truth isn't very exciting. No boogey men, no space men, just aircraft and maybe, perhaps a few drones run by individuals doing nothing much.

What is suspicious is that Kim reported seeing "red blinkers" in the sky. Aircraft use red/starboard, green-port with white strobes for lighting, but I'm not aware of any manned aircraft that display "red blinkers."

I thought they were errant "weather balloons"(at times flying figure-eight formations) flying over sensitive military sites.

If no one claims them, shoot them down! It's a matter of self-defence, because they could be carrying some type of chemical or the dreaded Wuhan virus. Even worse, the clot shot medicine!

If the Feds had done their own ‘deep analysis’ instead of leaving it up to a newly appointed politician it might be more believable. There is obviously a lot more air activity than normal and the only answer provided by the Biden Administration is ‘We don’t know’. What do they expect the reaction to be? It’s not like they have a history of truth telling.

I think we're testing our own defense systems to be sure they will do what they're supposed to if attacked by unknown drones/aircraft. The government won't disclose what's happening because that would defeat the purpose, wouldn't it? Maybe that's why there's similar action in the airspace around US bases in foreign countries as well. When you think about it, how else would we test our defense capabilities?

If the feds don't claim them, anyone should be able to shoot them down.

#2~ As informational, according to a pilot with 2000+ hours as a pilot regarding “an object in the sky over northern New Jersey” this week that flew in a straight line low, slow and loud and headed directly for Newark Airport that had two red lights, a green light, and a white light, pilots love those lights because they are a great help when trying to avoid hitting other airplanes. “The FLASHING RED LIGHT in the center is the 360-degree beacon on the bottom of the fuselage. The STEADY RED LIGHT is on the left wingtip, and the green is on the right. The white light is on the tail, facing rearward. This light pattern, used by airplanes flying every night in the world, has its history in nautical navigation. Coast Guard regulations have mandated a green light to starboard, a red light to port, and a white stern light on most boats for more than 100 years. Some of the pictures captured by the panicking public also show two bright bulbs lighting what appears to be a large tube at the front of these feared flying machines. Those are the landing lights illuminating the forward half of the fuselage. Observers also claim these “huge drones” make a lot of noise. They are correct. Jet engines are thunderous.” For anyone interested in a somewhat reassuring and interesting explanation of the drones: https://radiopatriot.net/2024/12/15/the-drone-question-explained/ “The Drone Question Explained”

People in NJ know the flight paths.They know what a plane in the night sky looks like. And what it doesnt look like. Day time air traffic is heavier than night. Why no drone sighting during the day?

It was a moment I’ll never forget: Friday afternoon, November 15, 2019. After spending Veterans’ Day week in snowy, freezing Leavenworth, Kansas, I returned to Charlotte for a court appearance that morning in neighboring York County. I was talking to a friend on my cell phone, driving eastbound on Pineville-Matthews Road, when my phone beeped with an incoming call. The screen flashed: The White House. I pulled off the road into a Panera Bread parking lot and answered the call. It was the president’s military attaché. “Mr. Brown, I’m here with the president. The president wants to know if he has permission to call your client.”

Even before Donald Trump ascends to the presidency on January 20, his appointees should ask themselves the questions that follow — all of them simple and straightforward. With Christopher Wray stepping down from the FBI directorship, they will have a much better chance of getting straight answers quickly. Trump’s team should then share those answers widely. This information will make President Trump’s pardon of more than 1,500 Americans much more comprehensible to the American public and much less controversial. –Although now the FBI admits to having 26 confidential human sources in the crowd on January 6, how many total “assets” did the FBI
