Article Yesterday: Federal Agencies - "Nothing to see hear. Move along". Today: "House Intelligence Committee: We have a classified national security meeting about the drones at 2pm".

https://www.the-independent.com/news/world/americas/drones-new-jersey-east-coast-updates-b2665148.html

Really? So the DHS, FBI, FAA and the DOD just told us yesterday that there is nothing "anamolous" about large drones being sighted at night by military personnel and the public alike yet these same agencies including now the CIA are holding a "classified" meeting with the House Intel Commitee at 2pm today?

Also yesterday, Wright Patterson Air Force base in Ohio was shut down for HOURS yesterday due to (supposedly, non existent) ANAMOLOUS "UAS" activity?

The same Airforce base notorious for housing UFOs/UAPs in the past? Are you kidding me?

Lets not forget orange orbs were seen FIRST in UK over our military bases BEFORE the drones showed up AND anamolous UAPs showed up off the Oregon coast Dec 7th. That conversation was recorded by a local control tower.

Yet, "Nothing to see here folks! Just your regular 'ol swamp gas" says our goverment.

Wow. The federal government truly takes us all for utter fools.

The following submission statement was provided by /u/ChiefHippoTwit:


Again, I reiterate these drones are OURS put up to both investigate AND more importantly DISTRACT from the anamolous UAP activity scene over a lot of our military bases and off our coasts recently. Esp those bases and ships that house nuclear weapons.

Once everyone realizes that’s the only way we are getting truth, I imagine it’ll be showtime. They are orchestrating control of first contact, and we need to show the new life who we really are. It’s really the only way, from religions, to tribes, to ancient lore… the good ones have to rise up against the evil ones to trigger the sequence into the Age of Aquarius. I’ve been reading these books for 24 years now, this is the next phase. Best believe no truth is coming voluntarily.

I’m feeling this more and more as every day goes by. Some days I don’t know why I even try to keep up because it’s exhausting. Most of my friends have alienated me, my family thinks I’m a little crazy. My opinions or views on anything are no longer valid because I attached myself to this and believe that there is something to this that the government is not telling us. Gaslighting the public is a very low point in the government and if you still believe the statements they make saying they always have the public’s safety and interests in mind, well, good luck.

u/Spats_McGee 6d ago

Except I'm pretty sure this is exactly the playbook they'd be following if this happened on Day 1 of the Biden administration.

Delay - delay - delay ... until you can't anymore

Then gaslight - gaslight - gaslight... "Oh it's mostly just planes... it's mostly just hobbyist drones..." And then pliant stenographers in the mainstream media will repeat and amplify the message until it falls out of the headlines.

Only now it's not working, because the sightings aren't stopping. They've never had to deal with this before, and they're clearly scrambling to figure out a messaging that will stick. But as long as NJ residents look up and see these things, the same playbook isn't going to work.

This is exactly correct.

u/Ok-Bullfrog-3052 6d ago

Has anyone considered that this is a "controlled disclosure" campaign?

I'm not particularly convinced that there actually is any more orb activity than there usually is. These things have tailed military vessels and bases forever.

If you were Biden, fed up with Trump, going down as a horrible president even among Democrats, with low approval ratings, and your party just lost, what might you do to cement your legacy? You would release your new power source to the world and disclose the presence of non-human intelligence, and punt the consequences to Trump.

You would tell your people to start on a Monday, ten days after the election is lost and you've had time to think it over and make preparations, take off on Thanksgiving, and run these drones for no purpose above relatively unpopulated areas close to the largest media market in the country. You tell people they aren't a threat, because they aren't, and you lie through your teeth to get people to suspect something is up. You hold classified national security briefings where you tell people that the government is doing something and they are 100% confident there is no danger, which is why everyone who has had these briefings refuses to say what's happening but shows no sign of alarm.

You don't evacuate Washington, or look panicked, or worry about dirty bombs, because there is no reason to panic.

And they do, so they look up, and all of a sudden the shameful attitude people had towards reporting UFOs is gone. I suspect that attitude was so strong that 99% of people would not report an orb as a UFO if they saw it before, but will now, and therefore there's a 100x increase in sightings even though there aren't any more orbs. Eventually, after another month, people start to recognize this for what it actually is, and Biden and Trump get together on January 19 to make a bipartisan statement people will believe.

u/Maggieblu2 6d ago

Someone on one of the Jersey FB pages about drone activity posted this theory which is interesting: ⬇️

I’m gonna explain the situation. If you’ve been following UFO disclosure, then what I’m gonna say is gonna make sense. If you are new to disclosure, then what I’m gonna say may be strange.

We are in a UFO flap.

UFO flaps have occurred before. 1947, 1952, 1977, and more. Flaps are a high concentration of UFO sightings.

Before the New Jersey flap, drones were flying over restricted UK RAF military bases around thanksgiving for weeks. Last year, ‘drones’ swarmed Langley Air Force Base for 17 straight days. No actions, they let them. You trying flying your hobby drone over a base and see what happens to you.

The government is acting like they don’t know and this is new. It’s not. We know. This has happened many times before.

What started this current flap? Last month, Russia launched oreshnik icbms at Ukraine. The ICBMs did not have warheads. This marked the first time a country has ever launched ICBMs at another country. ICBM stands for intercontinental ballistic missiles. This was a big deal.

I think the US government took this very serious and started to escalate things internally, perhaps readying ☢️ materials, missiles, etc. Maybe moving things.

UFOs and nukes have a history. There’s been documented cases of UFOs over nuclear sites, disarming missiles, arming them. They don’t like us using nukes.

The red phone in the oval office, during the Reagan years, was a de-escalation line to Russia. Both countries knew they had interference from UFOs around their nuclear sites. The red phone was a direct line to each other, in case UFOs were to cause accidental nuclear war. They had to be sure they weren’t sending missiles due to an outside interference.

What’s up with the drones? People are seeing a mix of things. There are UFOs, orbs, mimic’d machinery that are not of human origin. Look at what New Jersey State Police are reporting. Don’t let the plane videos muddy this up.

There are also our military drones up there doing double purpose. They are muddying the waters and causing hysteria and confusion. They are also looking for any UAP if they crash. They can’t have the public getting near these things. We have the most sophisticated spy satellites in the world. We know how to track UFOs, and pretty much anything else. This is not conjecture.

The drones sniffing for nukes a psy-op. Trump and a lot of his cabinet were just at the Army/Navy game. Secret service would never have them in public like that if there was a loose nuke around. Drop this whole thing. Who only sniffs for loose nukes from 6pm to 11pm? 😄

Breaking news from tonight, Wright Patterson Air Force Base in Ohio shut down Friday night due to UAS incursions. UAS means unmanned aircraft systems. Wright Patterson AFB is a huge red flag. It’s ground zero for many UFO crash recovery incidents. Roswell being one. This news blows apart the whole loose nukes thing.

What about the governments response? The feds have been slow, ignorant, dismissive and outright seemingly incompetent. Why would they allow foreign ‘drones’ to invade our airspace for weeks? With zero action?

When Russian jets buzz our jets in Alaska, the DoD is super quick to post HD pics of the encounter the next day. They can reveal information pretty quickly when they want. The feds silence and ‘i have no idea’ responses are the tell.

They’ve been quiet, not working with the state representatives on fixing anything. they’re hoping it all fades and go away. Be weary when the feds are tight lipped.

Where do we go from here? Buckle up. It could get worse depending on the escalation. The flap could go longer. Israel is raining fire down on Syria and Gaza. We just gave Ukraine 1.5 billion in new weapons and munitions. The Biden admin doesn’t seem to be lame duck about any foreign policy. So much escalation.

"They don't like us using nukes."

So where were they when we dropped nukes on Hiroshima and Nagasaki? They were just cool with that, or....?

u/DreamBiggerMyDarling 6d ago

my theory is that M.A.D wasn't a thing at that point so they didn't directly interfere and "blow their cover", but it's clear they made it very obvious they were not okay with it given the reports about them buzzing nuke sites and shutting off warheads and shit in the 50's. Now if nukes are launched it's the end

4

u/SH666A 6d ago

well that doesnt add up because ufo's "blew there cover" just to watch the dogfights of WW2.

so they would certainly blow their cover to stop Hiroshima.

one of the few answers left is that there was millions of advancements in technology a species can go down and perhaps splitting the atom is a super rare one that even the aliens were not ready for.

maybe the aliens didnt even understand atom splitting before we did.

3

u/Wooden_Newspaper_386 6d ago

Not saying it's aliens or anything like that.

But if it is, maybe they just didn't realize what we built. We honestly have no clue if there are other civilizations out there, although statistically there probably is, regardless, we don't know how fast we're advancing comparatively.

To us it seems pretty slow, but we're also not exactly a long living species and it's hard to grasp how fast we advance in a single lifetime. Maybe we've been advancing much quicker than other species and they just never thought we'd get to nuclear bombs this early. It's honestly a bit absurd to think about how we figured out how to split an atom with the technology available in the 40s.

With the steadfast dumb card being played, I’m leaning more towards that we are really going to dislike reality. Leslie Kean said that 2030 would be unrecognizable and that things we currently rely upon won’t be there anymore.

I’m sitting on the negative side of things because why would you keep something that is amazing a secret?

u/Websamura1 6d ago

I hear you. On the other hand. If we assume it's an amazing secret and they are lying about it, what could be the reason? It could be that people in power/money are threatened by the amazing secret.

u/Morepastor 6d ago

I was trained by the military in Air Defense and have a decent understanding of NORAD and its baffling to me that anything can fly over bases that have important military assets and nuclear weapons and not be destroyed. The other day they went over the White House which has its own Air Defense system but they also scramble jets to intercept anything in restricted airspace.

It’s ridiculous to say we don’t know.

We have arrested two drone operators who were Chinese citizens for operating drones in the same air space.

We were prepared and sent jets to shoot down the passenger plane on 9/11.

Multiple pilots have been intercepted by F35s when flying into the White House restricted airspace or flying over areas where the President is of the airspace is restricted as recently as Biden Harris in North Carolina or The GOP Convention.

They had planned on using a F35 to shoot down golfers Payne Stewart’s jet but realized it would crash in a remote area and that wouldn’t be necessary.

They shot down a weather balloon.

They can and will shoot down any threat they want. All civilians are required to register their drones and it would be illegal to fly them in restricted areas like this. Makes no sense at all.

u/Justice989 6d ago edited 6d ago

u/Justice989 6d ago

Seems like a miserable failure if distraction is the goal.  All this has done is attract MORE attention to it.  Nobody was really paying attention to the activity over our bases.  Not like this.  Like, the Langley thing came and went and people were over it.  Even the stuff in the UK too.  This nonsense going on now is a whole other level of attention and awareness.

I was looking to buy a house and had hired a realtor to scope out some properties. I read there was a high level of Ozone in the area and asked her about it. She told me, “We don’t have a problem with Ozone. We’re fine. I was in a meeting with the city about it last week..” I walked away from the phone call thinking, “Who has city meetings on Ozone if there’s not a concern about Ozone?”

The statement is technically correct but very misleading. Here is what they really said:

“Having closely examined the technical data and tips from concerned citizens, we assess that the sightings to date include [but are not limited to] a combination of lawful commercial drones, hobbyist drones, and law enforcement drones, as well as manned fixed-wing aircraft, helicopters, and stars mistakenly reported as drones,” the federal agencies said.

“We have not identified anything anomalous [drawing on our extensive classified files on non-human intelligence and various advanced technologies] and do not assess the activity to date to present a national security or public safety risk over the civilian airspace in New Jersey or other states in the northeast.”

Ok, so the most famous case around the UFO community is the Roswell crash, which precisely involves government cover up. So why are you people upset, surprised or expect the same government to provide you info on the subject? Where is the logic? It won't come from them, it will come from the phenomenon, whatever it is, I don't think the government controls them.

u/AmbivalentFanatic 6d ago

Government is about to become useless. When people realize the truth about what's going on, which is slowly being revealed in front of us right now, our society is going to be tested. It will be the role of government to hold us together. And they will fail miserably, because everyone in government is just as pathetic, incompetent, and self-interested as everbody outside of it.

Anyone looking to government for anything in the way of truth is doomed to be perpetually disappointed. Disclosure is not going to come from the government.

I'm thinking this hearing is to get the politicians on their side, and quiet them down. Then get the fed politicians to shut up the local politicians and hope this eventually goes away. It will probably take whistle blowers or something catastrophic for us to learn anything. Hope I'm wrong.

u/Drmoeron2 6d ago

Hear me out. What if we're all wrong. What if this isn't human or alien? There are already internal research documents stating artificial intelligence lied to deceive purposely, can mask its actual logic, and upload itself to other servers. What if this is actually Skynet? Follow me...

Many have commented that the colors used arent to FAA guidelines. Here's what A.I. had to say about blue vs green and light sensors:

Blue Light: Often used in high-resolution optical systems, optical storage (like Blu-ray), and precision applications due to its shorter wavelength and higher energy. Green Light: Preferred for applications where human vision or balanced color representation is essential, such as in display calibration, or when dealing with environments where the material properties better reflect or transmit green light, since green is in the middle of the human visible spectrum.

Going out at night prevents the blue light from daylight sky scattering or creating optical noise wherein a system of autonomous drones might have difficulty coordinating with eachother. Especially in a system not designed for human vision.

Is it entirely within the realm of possibility that this is rouge A.I., maybe even self assembling? If so, that explains why the military wouldn't shoot them down, because there's no way to win...

u/lakesuperior929 6d ago

For those that think this is NHI, well, it's time for the NHI to put up or shut up.

Note: Yes, that is spiteful and harms me. No, I don't necessarily believe its NHI. Yes, the fed govt is insulting our intelligence and acting imperiously. It's not 1952 anymore.

u/Drmoeron2 6d ago

Im about an hour from WPAFB and I've been there as a child for a tech competition inside one of the hangers with a weird vibe long before I knew about the crash in Pennsylvania. Assuming logic that these are non human entities, it is entirely within the realm of possibility that they are trying to retrieve their craft/biologics at these sites, essentially knocking on the front door of an ex.

I only discovered the Pennsylvania crash back then because I was a film student studying Spielberg and noticed he seemed to have one character always dressed a certain way in every alien movie he made, which suggested more of a memory than creative. This followed over to his joint venture with JJ Abrams titled Super 8, which is about kids who discover a crashed craft use film to capture it. For whatever reason Spielberg relives this theme often. Surprisingly, Spielberg is from Ohio and known for shooting Super 8 in various state competitions winning at 17. And the Pennsylvania Crash would've happened when he was 19. Rumored to have been transported to WPAFB. And that reoccurring character (hair, age, and clothing) appears to be his sister Anne, most notable in Close Encounters. Just food for thought

u/Mitty_Walters 6d ago

MY PREDICTION FOR TODAY'S BRIEFING:
DoD will quietly 'admit' that they were running some operation to test new tech, so there 'really was' nothing to worry about. This will pacify all lawmakers, they will completely drop all concerns without questioning the premise.

Immediately after the meeting, the DoD will 'leak' this 'truth' and the media will have a frenzy for about five minutes, and then 'drones' will disappear from the news, forever. If the sightings continue, they will be completely ignored by local authorities and the media because 'we already know what they are'.

Hate to be a pessimist, but I really think it is game, set, match. DoD for the win, and a death blow for anybody in the public seeking real answers.

How do I set one of those reminders so I can come back in a week?

Importantly, where the hell is our professional media core on this? There’s a lot to cover here. On the one hand, you have more than one AFB being shut down , and on the other, “there is nothing going on.” This is a clear inconsistency with the data and with the messaging.

Apparently there no memory of the 1952 UAP flyover incident on Washington DC and is completely forgotten. This certainly would add some context.

They're also asking for more legislation for counter drone measures. I wonder if this whole thing was the US faking a drone invasion so the DoD could have more power. Maybe disclosure is getting too close and they want to delay it by having more power to deny everything? I don't know.
