Since these drones obviously didn't fly here from Europe, and there don't seem to be any mother ships off the coast, it seems these are launched from America.  Since the Biden administration either won't, or is reluctant, to shoot them down, I have to wonder if they aren't government issue spying on Americans and flying over military bases as a cover for what they are actually doing, :pondering:
Why could they not be dropped off by a large plane or simply a balloon?

Could be thousands dropped in no time at all and controlled by the thousands of Chinese who came across the border.

  • I was a "conspiracy theorist". Now I'm just right.
Incredible!
If drone swarms can be programmed to do this sort of display, they (with a touch of AI for autonomy) can be programmed for military purposes, be that recon, attack,or defense.
Picatinny Arsenal is a testing area for weapons tech, and these may just be flying out of there.

Seventeen Techniques for Truth Suppression

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

When did the Biden administration start caring about having "authority" before it could do anything?

Exactly. They are trying to hide behind “technicalities”.

Briefers see though this ruse.  I am guessing the left would like to keep the general public's attention occupied with UFO's every news cycle, instead of reporting what Kash, Elon, and Pam find the first half of 2025.

His bovine is working overtime.

F-16s were scrambled to (if need be) shoot down civilian airliners on 9/11.
Either we've been lied to about Flight 93 or the story is one of genuine heroism, (I'll go with the latter), but at the point where that aircraft got too close, it would have gone no farther.

He can't authorize downing UAVs? Bullshit. He knows whose they are.

So now the government can just Willy-nilly shoot at private property without proof of an actual threat, just because the internets have gotten their panties in a twist?

But of course, God forbid the government should try to prevent private cows from being grazed on government property.

Buzzing active airports is an actual threat.

Perhaps that is a precise and narrow interpretation of the matter but I can assure you, if elements within our vast national security complex expressed threat concerns to the Commander in Chief (shhh… he’s asleep), the order would go out to bring the UAV’s down.
