Amid hysteria over mysterious drones spotted over New Jersey, former CIA operations officer Laura Ballman presented her theory that probably this is a classified operation being executed by the Biden administration otherwise why the White House would assert that it was nothing illegal, she asked. The drone sightings have been continuing for the past few weeks with no scientific or logical explanation coming from the government. The administration also dismissed any apprehension over it.
“Deducing the statements from [National Security spokesman] John Kirby that these drones are not operating illegally, coupled with several op-eds that have been out there in the last 24 hours about the need to look at our detection systems, makes me think perhaps this is actually a classified exercise to test either evasion technology or detection technology in urban areas,” Ballman said. The former adviser said she would be “shocked” if the drones were related to the CIA as it is “not their mandate to operate in the United States”. She said it’s time for the government to be more forthcoming with information.
The first mystery aircraft were spotted flying above northern New Jersey in mid-November and then several of them were reported hovering over crucial establishments. The FBI said there was no evidence of large-scale unmanned drone activity and security officials called the public’s fear “a slight overreaction”.
New Jersey senator hunts drones
New Jersey Senator Andy Kim went out on a drone patrol with local police and said that some were actually aeroplanes. “After going out with police to observe reports of possible drones, I was with help of civilian pilots and others able to do deeper analysis and concluded that most of the possible drone sightings that were pointed out to me were almost certainly planes,” Kim wrote in a Saturday update on X. “While I didn’t observe a plane in the flight tracker at that moment that night, I was able to pull up more detailed flight data subsequently and spotted this one small plane taking the path of what was pointed out to me the other night as possible drone flying near us,” the Garden State senator posted, accompanied with a screen grab of the detailed flight tracking data.
