I was google searching to see if we had any drones that would go dark when being approached because of that reddit post where the helicopter is chasing the drone. As I was looking through the results I came across this comment in this post that describes exactly how these New Jersey UAP drones looked like months ago.

During today's hearing, Agent Robert Wheeler Jr., Assistant Director of the Critical Incident Response Group for the FBI, testified that the FBI's entire counter-drone budget is "about $500,000"

That's half a million dollars that the FBI has allocated (out of a budget of around 10 billion) to counter one of the most significant domestic security threats to our infrastructure today (according to other witnesses who testified today and in previous hearings) and one of the fastest-changing technological platforms for delivery of deadly force or kinetic payload.

Making some very rough assumptions, I believe that the FBI actually (not ironically and not an exaggeration) spends more on coffee than on counter-drone activity and platforms:

Assume the taxpayers are funding some basic Folgers grinds agency-wide:

One tub that makes about 240 cups is around 24 bucks if ordered through ULine

So that's about 10 cents a (small 6 oz) cup.

Assume half of the FBI's 35,000 person workforce are coffee drinkers, and on average they drink 2 cups (12 oz) per day.

That's 17,500 times 20 cents per day, or $3,500 per day (give or take). Let's say I'm overestimating and we'll round down to $3,000 per day.

Assume that each agent works about 250 days per year (they get weekends and holidays and vacation, right?)

So that's 250 x $3,000 = $750,000 per year.

Maybe I'm overestimating. Maybe they get a government high-volume discount. Maybe it's only $700,000.

That's still, very likely, in a very real world, hundreds of thousands more than they are spending on counter-drone technology and strategy.

For real.

I want a bigger tax refund. And I demand the FBI start buying the crappy generic coffee too.

This is maddening, right?

Right?

First time posting here. Please be kind.

I know a lot of people in this community are hoping for full on disclosure where NHI reveal themselves in a way that's undeniable.

Whether it's NHI preparing for catastrophic disclosure, or WWIII or maintaining the status quo of living in uncertainty, I am incredibly anxious. It's impacting my mood and my productivity among other things.

I love my family to death (as I'm assuming most of us do) and am legit worried I might lose them forever as a result of whatever becomes of all of this. It's fucking scary.

Before anyone asks, I'm seeing a therapist. I'm also involved pretty heavily in psychedelic medicine.

They're helpful to an extent, but my worldly connections are so strong, that the fear of losing them I feel as this point only be quelled by circumstancial factors (i.e. the "drones" going away and returning to regular boring life).

Anyone else feeling big feels and anxiety around this or reassuring words to share?

I'm considering uninstalling the reddit app for awhile, but that doesn't necessarily make the problem go away. Staying in the loop, while anxious, at least give me some semblance of control in preparing for the worst versus not knowing and getting a bomb dropped on my head.

Thank you for reading.

Edit: typo, but also thank you for the support and comradery. Very much appreciated!

So info was released at the hearing today that is pretty mindblowing:

The craft originate from and return to the water, in a straight line, all of them. A NJ representative sat on the beach and watched 50 come from the water in a line. A coast guard ship was trailed by 30 of them last night.

They have not found a ship releasing them with all of their best naval and surveillance technology

Deducing form here, with the power of our military and surveillance, this means there is no ship.. no ship large enough could sit out there for two weeks and not be found.

Which leaves..

Govt better start working on that disclosure speech because the public will not be happy with this

What the hell is happening here. Come on media, push our military to answer. It is not an understatement to say this is extremely disappointing as an American.

It doesn't matter if you believe it is NHI, a covert op, an enemy actor, a hobbyist gone awry, or simply mis-identified planes and helicopters.

Silence from those in charge is not an answer.

Original Title: Watch this to better understand in focus and out of focus cameras. This effect is universal for most optics. You can do this with Telescopes, phone cameras, etc. it's very common and this sub would do well to recognize out of focus light.

They predominantly show wtinesses on TV that hear drone noises and spam posts on social media showing images of drones, helicopters and planes.

Of course the military deployed planes, helicopters and drones all over the place as a counter measure against an airborne invasion of unknown objects, either to follow them or to capture them.

They qualified the UFOs as drones to muddy the waters so people don't know what are we talking about. The misuse of the word drones instead of UAPs or UFOs was intended to confuse the public because they instantly deployed their own military drones.

Nevertheless it can't be military drones or any human technology :

  • civilian/commercial planes were temporarily rerouted once the first sightings started and not before
  • these objects are unmanned and have no identifiable remote operators (the FBI just confirmed that)
  • they are silent
  • they have no visible means of propulsion
  • they have no navigational lights although produce unusual lights
  • they trigger a military response
  • they hover over sensible facilities in restricted areas
  • they make it all around the world (simultaneously reported cases India, UK, ...)
  • these similar events have already happened over nuclear plants in Sweden 2022 the US 2015, 2018 to 2020 and France 2014 or airports in the UK 2018, 2023 and Spain 2022. They all have been labelled as incursions of mysterious drones without any accountable party whatsoever. (For sources do your research "drone airport/drone nuclear plant + country + year" you'll find the articles)
  • they are elusive and can perform over a long period of time that doesn't correspond to the expected abilities versus their size (longer than the actual drones)
  • they don't have radio beacon for identification and position
  • they are only seen at night
  • the military haven't been able to determine the single takeoff site or landing destination

Edit : also a lot of gaslighting obviously

Original Title: Drone captured over Burnaby canada. They really do look like planes, but they are closer to the ground, quieter, and they just look off. One flew much lower before this one did, but I didn't capture it as I was not prepared. That one came so low I saw it pass in front of one if the towers.

Original Title: How stupid do they view the American public with regards to the NJ drones? The FBI has nothing to do with securing our airspace. Why bring them in to do some "aw shucks nobody knows" BS. How come the PENTAGON or FAA isn't answering questions about them?


The White House and Pentagon seemingly views the American people as stupid enough to believe that:

  • Despite the fact that in a post 9/11 world, as much as a Cessna doing an undeclared flight in NJ/NY coastal airspace would trigger F-18 escorts, that our military and the FAA is allowing just a bunch of slow, regular drones to constantly violate some of our most secure airspace.
  • That these "unknown" aircraft are also obeying FAA regulations on safety light colors.
  • That officials somehow simultaneously know they "pose no threat" yet still "don't know what they are". The most absurd of the seemingly unecessary lies.
  • That despite dozens of large "unknown drones" flying around densely populated airspace near airports, they haven't grounded any flights at any airports.
  • Most absurdly, that we don't immediately see a lack of clear statement from the Pentagon as a clear obvious sign of Pentagon involvement.

The USAF sent an F-22 to scramble a single spy balloon over the coast of South Carolina but won’t attempt to deploy similar measures in this case? The theory that they choose not to engage the drones because they are over people’s homes does not add up any more. The coast guard in NJ reported being tailed by 12-30 of these things.

Like many others have stated it’s embarrassing. Our foreign adversaries are likely drooling over how much of a nothing burger our homeland defense is. Unless they know exactly what they are and are choosing not to engage for a different reason, we really aren’t showing much capacity to protect our own soil.

Robert Wheeler shaking like a shitting dog while admitting to congress they aren’t sure what they are is also not a good look lmao.

It blows my mind that with over 3000 sightings above public residences and many others above restricted air space that this has somehow not peeked the interest of an agency or branch of military that has the ability to respond with a big stick.
