Lawmakers Demand Answers as Large Drones Near Trump's Golf Course in New Jersey Spark Investigation
Dec 13, 2024, 04:21 PM
Unexplained drone sightings over New Jersey have prompted concern among residents and lawmakers. Since mid-November, dozens of drones, some reportedly up to six feet in diameter and flying with lights off, have been observed flying overnight near sensitive locations, including military installations like Picatinny Arsenal and Donald Trump's golf course in Bedminster. The FBI, Department of Homeland Security, and other government agencies are investigating the incidents but have yet to determine the drones' origin or purpose. Retired Maj. Gen. John F. Wharton stated that the threat of terrorism is "not going away" and emphasized the need for preparedness. Rep. Mikie Sherrill is urging Secretary Austin and the Department of Defense to take action to protect national security and improve communication with New Jersey families. Senators from New Jersey and New York, including Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer, are demanding federal briefings on the mystery drones. While White House officials have downplayed any potential threats to national security or public safety, the lack of clarity has led to public anxiety. Similar drone sightings have been reported in New York, Maryland, and Pennsylvania. The FBI and DHS have issued joint statements on the drone reports, and flight restrictions have been implemented near affected sites. Residents are being urged to report any sightings or provide relevant information to authorities.
