Unknown "Drones" Over New Jersey/Military Sites
This has been kind of big thing on social media and there are news stories on it---though it hasnt really been all that huge a story so far in the legacy media. Odd---since a balloon floating over the nation was a massive story a couple of years ago. Kinda curious what folks here think is going on. Below are just a couple of the many stories you can find if you google the situation.
The drones were reportedly first seen over Morris County, New Jersey, in mid-November. Drones have since been observed regularly across the Garden State, including a recent uptick in Middlesex County and other areas.
"The FBI Newark, NJ State Police, and NJ Office of Homeland Security and Preparedness are asking for the public to report any information related to the recent sightings of possible drones flying in several areas along the Raritan River," the FBI said in a statement on Dec. 3.
"Witnesses have spotted the cluster of what look to be drones and a possible fixed wing aircraft," the statement continued. "We have reports from the public and law enforcement dating back several weeks."

Welcome to this special Black Friday installment of The Intelligence Brief… in recent days, sightings of “mystery drones” have been back in the news, following a concerning series of incidents reported over U.S. military bases in the United Kingdom. For all of our readers who stayed home to enjoy Thanksgiving leftovers instead of braving the Black Friday crowds (as well as those waiting in long lines while out shopping), this week we’ll be taking a look at 1) the latest mystery drone incursions over U.S. facilities, 2) what the USAF has said about the drone sightings, in Great Britain, 3) how these incidents became a recent media sensation, 4) the relationship (and lack thereof) between mystery drone incidents and the Pentagon’s UAP investigations, and 5) what most are missing about the recent drone incidents, and why they are legitimately concerning.

Sounds like the military is testing drones. That's why no one is saying anything.

The problem with it being the military is that these things have lights all over them. Would the military want to advertise testing? I think not. I don’t think a foreign entity is doing it either. At least not the ones that advertise their presence. It’s probably little smart asses getting a good laugh. Doing their best to pull one over on the generals.
Now the swarms over military bases with no light? They’re more likely to be some bad guys.

Thats the first thing I thought of. Why would a surveillance drone have lights?

Much noise about nothing. These drones are owned and operated by that guy in the Modelo commercials that gifts bottles of beer to loyal sports fans. However, he is having trouble finding such people, as the Jets and Giants are historically bad this year.

There are military sites in every state in the union. And they often own the best property, lol. I know. I've worked at a helluva lot of them.

The Navy, where I did most of my work, owns some of the best coastline property anywhere. Atlantic. Pacific. Gulf of Mexico. You name it.

Shoot them down. Drones can't fly over private property without permission.

My guess is if it wasn't military drones, the military would have already shot the drones out of the sky.

Its against the law to shoot any drone down, which I disagree with. If they are over your house, take them down.
Some people are speculating that they are UAPs... but its weird that no one really knows who they belong to.
Also, drones are programed to automatically come down if they fly over restricted air space.
