State leaders across America are raising urgent concerns about a wave of unexplained drone activity over critical infrastructure. Multiple Republican governors have revealed disturbing patterns of surveillance that federal authorities have failed to address.
“For two years running we have had drone incursion over secure air space and we still don’t know why,” Virginia Governor Glenn Youngkin declared during a meeting with fellow state executives. “And I think that’s absolutely unacceptable.”
Louisiana Governor Jeff Landry added his voice to the growing chorus of concern. He confirmed that drones have been spotted hovering over nuclear reactors in his state – with federal authorities providing no meaningful response to their reports.
If this sounds alarming, it should.
Trump Weighs In With Major Promise
Now, President-elect Donald Trump is promising to lift the veil of secrecy surrounding these mysterious incidents.
“I’m going to give you a report on drones about one day into the administration because I think it’s ridiculous that they’re not telling you about what’s going on,” Trump announced during a gathering at Mar-a-Lago on Thursday.
The widespread nature of these incidents has become impossible to ignore. From New Jersey’s military installations to Wyoming’s energy facilities, state leaders are reporting increasingly bold drone activities with no explanation from federal agencies. Since December 2024, the Federal Aviation Administration has issued temporary flight restrictions over 53 specific locations in New Jersey alone. This includes areas near Trump’s Bedminster property and the Picatinny Arsenal military research center.
“We have drones in Wyoming flying over our infrastructure as well,” Governor Mark Gordon reported. “And it’s incredibly frustrating that we not only have no way of knowing what it is, but nobody knows how to deal with them.”
Let that sink in – unknown aircraft are freely monitoring our nuclear facilities. You truly can’t make this stuff up!
The pattern of federal silence has particularly alarmed state officials responsible for protecting critical facilities. On December 12, 2024, Naval Weapons Station Earle reported multiple unauthorized drone flights near its 2.9-mile-long pier. Despite this, the FBI and FAA have provided no explanations despite opening investigations.
Unlike the current administration’s stonewalling, Trump’s approach promises transparency.
“The government knows what is happening,” he noted in his characteristic direct style. “Our military knows where they took off from…and for some reason, they don’t want to comment.”
Stark Contrast To The Joe Biden Administration
The President-elect’s promise stands in stark contrast to the current administration’s approach. While federal agencies claim to have investigated 537 reported sightings since November of 2024, they’ve offered no substantive explanations to state leaders or the public about these potential security threats.
“That could be us sending drones, I hope that’s the case, us doing it and doing research and maybe they don’t want to talk about it from that standpoint,” Trump acknowledged. “I hope it’s not an enemy, but we’re going to find out on the 21st.”
For state leaders like Governor Youngkin, who oversees a state housing significant military and intelligence infrastructure, the stakes couldn’t be higher.
“I think President Trump and the new leadership coming in will work diligently to understand who’s behind this and what we do in order to stop the digital surveillance of all our secure infrastructure,” he stated.
The promise of answers comes as state authorities struggle with limited options to protect sensitive facilities. The FAA’s flight restrictions carry potential penalties including certificate suspension, civil penalties, and criminal charges. However, such measures appear ineffective against unknown operators conducting what appears to be coordinated surveillance.
As January 20th approaches, Americans may finally learn the truth about who is behind these mysterious flights. For now, state leaders continue their vigilance, awaiting answers about who exactly is watching America’s most sensitive installations – and why federal agencies have maintained their silence for so long.
In the end, the American people deserve to know the truth. Trump’s inauguration can’t come soon enough!
