So the department of home land security is going to investigate themselves because it’s their drones.

[Obscured]

I wasn't concerned, but after hearing The White House say there's nothing to be concerned about, I'm a little concerned.

[sbrown]

Let's deploy advanced anti-drone technology a month late. Yeah right.

[UnstoppableYaris]

FBI and DHS are well aware of what this is. Hope Trump makes it to Jan 20th.

[sadieme]

Seriously? Should this be so difficult?

From all the clips i have seen, (like nearly 700), people are seeing three things, one is a just a plane, one is a drone and the other is an orb like object. Most of the clips are just regular planes and airliners some of the other clips show drones and orbs interacting almost like the government is trying to figure out what the orbs are, the orbs seem to have weird aerodynamics (physics major) and can decelerate and accelerate non linearly which is very hard for a drone or a plane to do if not impossible, there is also alot of bs online and fake clips so be careful on those. Stay safe stay vigilant!

An air force base was shut down due to drones. Has anybody been arrested? Did our military shoot the drone down? Anybody....

Biden proved to be stupid, bye himself.

The latest rumor is that it’s the US Military looking for lost nuclear material.

[margaretsmyth]

Kind of late been out there for over a month

[FlipDahlenburg]

'Going to'. Defines this Administration. Too little, too late.

[irisradinger]

Germany here. I can't believe that you aren't able to find out about the drones. I always thought America is so advanced in technology.

[KasketsD]

What about the AATIP? They know what they are 110%.

[brock]

They closed the airfield but want to know if they are a threat?

[jimdoe]

Imagine being at a base and its shut down because of a drone flying over

[zulqarnainnaseer]

Increased surveillance was the motive behind it.

[kpizzlemynizzle]

That is the most ridiculous thing i have ever heard!!!!

[youarebanned]

Why the President and the military already know what it is…. Why does the government take us for fools….

[roddavis]

I've been seeing them in Richmond VA why won't nobody believe me the hell man

[LTDanglen]

Don't tell me people are so stupid in New Jersey that they can't tell the difference between a drone and a commercial airplane
