Trump Promises Report on New Jersey Drones

President-elect Donald Trump has promised to investigate a series of mysterious drone sightings over his Bedminster, New Jersey golf course, vowing to release findings shortly after taking office. During a Republican governors event, Trump criticized the Biden administration for not providing information about these drone activities, which have raised concerns among state leaders about security vulnerabilities. Virginia Governor Glenn Youngkin and Louisiana Governor Jeff Landry shared similar concerns regarding drone incursions over sensitive military and nuclear sites in their states. The FBI has investigated about 5,000 reported drone sightings, with around 100 deemed credible, but federal officials assert that these incidents do not pose an immediate national security threat. Trump alleged that the government is aware of the origins of the drones and plans to clarify the situation soon after his inauguration on January 20. The lack of transparency and the persistence of these incidents have prompted calls for enhanced state authority to address drone threats effectively.
