Mysterious Drones Over New Jersey Military Sites and Trump's Golf Club Spark FBI Probe, Calls for State of Emergency
Dec 11, 2024, 03:14 PM
Unidentified drones have been spotted flying over New Jersey, including over military facilities such as Picatinny Arsenal and former President Trump's Bedminster golf club. Reports began in mid-November, with sightings increasing, including dozens reported on Monday night, according to New Jersey Governor Phil Murphy. The U.S. military has stated that the drones are not theirs. The FBI is investigating the mysterious drone sightings, labeling them "concerning," and U.S. officials are unsure of their origin. The incidents have sparked complaints from lawmakers who say federal inaction makes the government appear incompetent. New Jersey State Senator Jon Bramnick has called for a "limited state of emergency" to ban all drones until the source of the sightings is determined. Some lawmakers, such as Congressman Jeff Van Drew, have alleged foreign involvement, though no evidence has been provided to support these claims. Security experts warn that the drones could pose a threat to critical infrastructure, and Homeland Security Committee Chairman Rep. Mark Green has expressed concerns over the potential for malicious use of unmanned aircraft.
