Donald Trump has ideas on the growing variety of stories of thriller drones flying over the Northeastern U.S., claiming the federal government, the army — and President Joe Biden — know precisely what is going on on.

Talking at a press convention Monday, Trump defined the army is aware of precisely the place the drones took off from, the place they got here from, and the place they went — however for some purpose, they will not remark.

Trump stated he didn’t consider the drones have been from enemy forces, as a result of they might have been blasted out of the sky by now. However, he made it clear that maintaining individuals in suspense feels odd, suggesting there’s one thing uncommon happening as a purpose they do not need to inform the general public.

He even discovered some humor in it, joking that he’d in all probability skip a weekend go to to Bedminster, New Jersey — one of many locations the place the drones have been noticed, together with New York, Pennsylvania, Ohio, and Virginia. This weekend airspace over a U.S. Air Drive base in Ohio was briefly closed to air visitors as a result of purported drone exercise, however there was no hazard to the placement or the general public, officers later introduced.

Donald was open about his confusion, however refused to remark when requested if he had obtained an intelligence briefing on the matter.

Trump first spoke concerning the drones just a few days earlier, posting on Fact Social that he wished to shoot the thriller drones out of the sky if the federal government cannot begin giving straight solutions.

The FBI and DHS launched an announcement final week saying most sightings have been really manned plane or interest drones, assuring there’s no hazard to the general public. One other official instructed CNN that over 90 p.c of the stories have been misidentified manned plane or objects like satellites or planets.
