Honestly, just get to back to me when you figure it out

[chris]

anyone think it strange. these drones started show up right after the election

[RC-qfmp]

You know it’s bad when the best case scenario is aliens. 👽

[williamfoulk]

We have gone from Paul Revere to "Nothing to see here."

[silentmajority]

During the recent congressional UAP hearings Elizondo said something was going to happen really soon
This is it

[corsairman]

New Jersey, Connecticut, Pennsylvania, New York, Maryland, Virginia, Colorado, Minnesota, & California…, so far.

doesn't anyone have a telephoto lens???

[johnnyd]

Wonder why there are never any sighting during the day time?

[manofreedom]

And our government "officials" say, "Nothing to see here folks, move along... move along." The response proves that we don't have a functional government, what we have are dysfunctional bureaucracies.

I didn't know until this started appearing on the news a few weeks ago that drones the size of automobiles existed!

[gvcxvzt]

Should I thank CBS for covering this after almost one MONTH?

[patriciafeehan]

There should be no mockery until these Drone operators are identified. Local authorities have photos these are not Grover’s Mill fairytales.
Take this seriously.

[dawnshipp]

Could you all just tell the truth for once, the majority of the world is not that stupid

[MHangman]

They look like drones but they dont act like drones

[lindabriggs]

Not mention that these "drones" are starting to be seen in California it was reported earlier today.

[Tidefan]

As if anyone believes anything this administration says.

[iAmCompletelyNormal]

Why do all the drones have FAA compliant lighting? Has anyone wondered that small detail?

[PT]

The chinese balloons were just the first stage. Now, they're sending drones.

[TheIvyLens]

The government does not want to cause panic, so they probably won’t say anything

[JK-wipp]

Don't worry, Maydorkus says it's okay.
