Rep. Jeff Van Drew, R-N.J., fired back after high-ranking officials dismissed claims he gathered from “very qualified” and “reliable” sources linking mystery drones flying over New Jersey airspace to an Iranian “mothership” parked off the U.S. East Coast.
“They’ve been incredibly stupid and incredibly weak with this,” Van Drew said Thursday on “America’s Newsroom.”
“We know they’re not backyard drones that some hobbyist is using because they’re much more sophisticated than that. We know that they’re not a commercial company within the United States because we don’t even have this level of sophistication yet. We are a full decade behind where China is with drones. The government claims it’s not them. They say it’s not them, so who is it?”
He continued, “I have credible individuals who have high security ratings, and they came to me and again, these are dependable, credible individuals that have security clearance that felt that they wanted to clear the air. They were, in essence, whistleblowers, and they believe there’s a real possibility it could be Iran, that there could be a ship not right on the coast of New Jersey. These drones, as cited by the Coast Guard, are coming in and out of the ocean. They’re going to the ocean. They’re not pontoons. They’re not landing on the water. They’re landing on something. We’re not being told the truth. They are dealing with the American public like we’re stupid.”
Mystery drones have been populating airspace over the Garden State for approximately a month, soaring over residential areas with flashing lights and no clear motive, prompting officials and state residents to demand answers regarding their origins.
Van Drew, who sits on the Transportation Committee and the Aviation Subcommittee, initially claimed Wednesday that confidential but “responsible” sources told him the mysterious aircraft came from an Iranian mothership, though the claim has not been verified. He also called for the drones to be “shot down.”

The natural follow up question would be “what does the work-up consist of for you to make the claims you do? What methods have been used so far and what did that tell you?”
All fake hype build up to most likely a false fake invasion, wake up and smell the coffee
That guy knows we are about to be murdered like those people in Maui. This administration is pure evil and we pay them to be. Its sickening
What a goofball administration. Throw Joe and everyone else out of office now and put Trump in. Joe and his henchman are lying to the people.
The president usually is not notified about the real threat analysis because he would have unpredictable human reactions that could conflict and supersede the decisions of lower 'specialized' military organizations like the pentagon. John is obviously protecting his own job…:) These press conferences are bedtime stories for kids.
Biden has sold out to China. These drones can take out the entire US power grid. If you think a hurricane is trouble wait until power goes out for the next 2 years for everyone.
Throw this administration out NOW
We all know less after watching this report
If they failed to explain what unidentified flying objects are,how can they know that it's not national security threat? They must be hiding something,they the satanics administration know
Joking with own citizens… What a bunch of….
This is the same country who without hesitation shot down a weather balloon because it was a threat due to being too close to military facilities
Fast forward to today when there is literally physical entities scattered all over the country and mocking the military with the satisfaction on cloaking abilities and they are literally turning their nose like it’s not their problem, like dude even if they is from a country and not uap related that is a full on act of war. You can see how the American people feel like they have been let down in times like this. Lots of show boating about having the confidence before it happens but when it’s actually here they literally look powerless against an actually threat, it’s actually embarrassing.
My guess is that the government is getting ready for widespread unrest! How the heck does the US, with all its capabilities, not know what these are?! THEY KNOW!!!
Someone tell this nob to put some government assets up there , they have military airfeilds that these things r flying over , and get some proper understanding of where these things r going , where they landing , and for gods sake u have spy satellites that can read a news paper from up there and ur telling us u dont know what , where and whos controlling these things , get off the stage muppet
What is Trumps opinion here?
They do not have radio transponders on, so they are in fact "Criminal"
I just saw a video on youtube: China just launched new generation transport shocking
Maybe this is what people keep seeying. They made many flying objects even flying cars. Maybe other countries are making these things too.
Drones are releasing the next pandemic SEERS into atmosphere. Just ask Bill Gates.
This guy Sooo full of Bull Hockey. Air Force Personnel have Stated there have been incursions on US Military installation Restricted Air Space!!
L I A R !!
Thanks for the information. We are in the End Times. Interplanetary ships are ready to go out to rescue all those people who are eliminating their psychological defects. The key is in the book "Hercolubus or Red Planet" by V.M. Rabolu. You can read it in PDF in several languages.
It's obviously Dr. ROBOTNIK
This administration is pathetic
He said whitehouse is not restricted space. LOL
Serious question, folks:
How can people be so sure they are drones?
I know waaay too many people do not believe in UFOs but…. what if?
Too many sightings have been reported in the last few months and too many former officials from several countries have come out and said THERE ARE FLYING AIRCRAFTS OUT THERE THAT ARE NOT MAN-MADE and that cannot be explained.
Maybe it's "them" about to reveal themselves full disclosure now.
Has anyone actually seen one in broad daylight and confirm that they are indeed drones?
Obviously this guy is a paid liar
This is like Trump not being a convicted criminal about to enter the white house house house after he tried to take over government and 37 criminal felony convictions.
What if I fly a drone over whitehouse, wouldn’t they just cause it to crash.
It is obvious they have no control over these drones. The world as we know it will soon end because a criminal is about to enter the White House. The watchers are tired of people in this government and many others.
Who really controls our government. It is obvious Trump cannot be allowed to be president and they are saying it is time to show themselves and soon much more.
The watchers now see that USA is about to fall.
They are lien them orbs are not drones they are not from this planet
Its wise to make peace with them.
Imagine this being your grandpa? I’d be embarrassed to admit I’m related to this clown
Liar liar pants on fire
Can you imagine being related to this guy how embarrassing
MOST backward 4th world Nation USA. Takes 4 mths to transfer power to new GOVT. Actually USA must 1st settle rising DEBT on itself. Hypocrisy
You can’t make those two statements in the same context. If you know that they are not adversarial then you know what they are. You can’t not know what they are and KNOW that they are not adversarial !! Only the US government thinks we’re that dumb
He is sleeping in the basement
3:29 OMG i can't belive how this man can say this whitout lose his face
He doesn't know what it's going on
They can say no security threat because they’re ours!
BIG PSYOP… DON'T FALL, There is a FALSE FLAG effort to pass H.R.8610, COUNTER-UAS ATHORITY SECURITY, SAFETY, AND REAUTHORIZATION ACT. Using Blue Beam to project orbs so drones can chase them around to scare the vote. You shouldn't be so concerned with orbs and and drones, and more with why the 3 letter agencies aren't telling us what's in the sky when they use the IR Imaging GeoSync Satellites that can scan the knat on a Russian's but cheek.
I think it military getting ready for drone warfare just a guess
they are lying their arses off!
That's it girl, Jackie call him out. Exactly, he states there's no threat. He sure is fumbling around with his response. Ha!!! Of course
This is the beginning, dont kid yourselves, they've been on earth for 1000's of years now…this is not a foreign country but in fact a foreign lifeform ..I have seen these "drones" up close and it will haunt my memories for whats left of my life, they've watched our society pull each other apart long enough now and this is an interplanetary intervention . Mark my words this will begin when one of the world's governments decides to shoot one from the sky . . . This isn't just happening in the u.s ! This is happening all over the world and our governments are hiding it from us. . Call me crazy all you want but this is not going to end well for all of the citizens of this world. Spend as much time as you can with all of your loved ones , make peace , mend broken relationships, just enjoy and appreciate everything you have.
