New Jersey House Rep Jeff Van Drew revealed the origin of drone sightings in his state live on Fox News. The newly-converted Republican says he spoke to serious and intelligent people with intimate knowledge of the situation. His goal is to get answers for his constituents who have been sighting the “SUV-sized” drones all over the state.
Van Drew says the Iranians launched a “mothership” off the East Coast of the United States. From this so-called “mothership”, they launched large drones into the United States. This is probably the same thing as the Chinese spy balloon incident. The drones are most likely gathering sensitive information but they may not be a physically violent threat.
Fox anchor Harris Faulkner was stunned by this revelation as he made it live on air. She asked a great follow-up question about the method in which these large drones are fueled and if it is safe to shoot them down without an explosion. Van Drew revealed that the military probably does not have technology equivalent to what is in the sky, so the method of shooting them down is probably unknown.
The drones are not violating any laws concerning airspace or anything else, which is clearly an exploitation of United States law to spy and/or intimidate.
