And we have these reports where they're saying, oh, yeah, this drone was hovering in the same spot for six hours. And, you know, drones and planes can't really do that that easily. I'm going to say maybe someone does have an uninterrupted six hour video of a drone doing that. But my guess is that's not the case.

I strongly suspect what's going on is someone, for example, is looking and they see a thing there and they're watching it for a while. And then maybe they look somewhere else and talk to someone for a bit or eat dinner. And they come back and they're like, wow, that drone is still there. But it might actually just be a different thing.

And if a plane is flying away from you or towards you, it's going to look like it's hovering in place. And lastly, I'm just going to say, if you look at some of the images people are posting, It is obviously a private jet. It has the FAA lights. It has the wings. It has the, you know, the engines on the tail. They're obviously just private jets.

And, you know, not all of the videos look exactly like that. But the fact that people are sharing those and thinking, oh, man, this is a drone from Iran, is not reassuring for people's deductive capabilities with this story.

When they say over, keep in mind, this is northern New Jersey. It is a densely populated area. I think people say over, and it implies hovering 300 feet off the ground over one spot. But if it's just flying in the sky nearby... Over 1,000 planes a day land at Newark.

I guess I don't see something terribly mysterious. He said, guys, first of all, a lot of those are obviously planes, which I don't disagree with. I think they're obviously planes. And then he's saying, the stuff we would have that would corroborate

The, you know, the reports from the public, which is, you know, we have the Coast Guard is the Coast Guard finding any evidence of drones, you know, coming in from from the from the ocean that would go back to that mothership. No, he says they haven't seen this. Do we have commercial pilots supporting like, whoa, there's a ton of planes in the air that aren't on our air traffic control.

They're not supposed to be here. Apparently, no, we haven't had commercial pilots saying that. Do we have reports of them actually going into the restricted airspace around military facilities and so forth? No, we don't.

Like, I think the Pentagon is is they're actually trying to, you know, play easy with people where, you know, maybe if this was 2020 and they were maximally arrogant, they would just say these are conspiracy theories and disinformation that is being promoted by disinformation actors, including Russia on social media. They're not doing that. They're just sort of saying, guys,

That's true. But again, I would encourage people to think about how sort of a popular... Panic can take place where it's like Havana syndrome. I like to make fun of Havana syndrome. That's where you had the CIA guys who were in Havana when we reopened the embassy there or reopened the office there, I guess. And so we had those guys there and one of them's like, I've got a weird headache.

Could it be like a weapon used by the Cubans? and suddenly everyone was getting sick and you had State Department officials who thought they were being shot by like a heat ray in the DC suburbs because their deputy undersecretary of something stupid was clearly super important for Russia to attack. And you started getting reports from all around the world for this.
