Sounds like a lot of double talk to me.

Kind of like “We don’t know but we are looking into it.”

Even more like - we are gravely concerned, but at this point we don't know of any foreign nexus that is behind this. Funny how the solution is always, always, we need more money and more systems and more control to keep everyone safe and stop these things from happening. They keep happening and will keep happening. As the failures from the SS, bureau and so many other tons of 3 letter agencies plus now our military pile up, they always will need ever more money and control, for the good of everyone of course. Is anyone still fooled by any of this?

Gobbledygook. No authority or responsibility to defend our air space?! Even if services are responsible for air space above their facilities these things had to fly from somewhere. I remember in DC there were Patriot batteries deployed and an Arleigh Burke destroyer parked in the Potomac. Somehow I thinks these guys are incompetent, apathetic or both.

Try drifting into unauthorized air space over DC. My BIL can attest that they take that seriously, why not military bases?

For the same reason you can firebomb a federal building during a BLM “ peaceful protest” and politicians will take up a collection to bail you out, but if you march around inside the capitol building dressed like a Viking and do some minor vandalizing you’re going to prison.

Politicians believe themselves to be sacred. Voter fraud isn’t a threat to democracy, but speaking out about abuses of power by politicians is.

Just another do nothing response from this administration, like those chinese weather balloons.

 

[Shibadog]

Typical. A bad actor with a few dozen drones with a very small explosive each could play hell with our $$$$$$ fighters…

Things have changed a LOT since I served in NORAD (North American Aerospace Defense Command), not necessarily in a good way.

Considering the 50,000+ military-aged Chicoms that have been allowed to enter the country the last 4 yrs, and instances of illegals attempting to enter military bases, there is a clear & present danger to military bases and the energy infrastructure.

There was a time that any aircraft on landing approach to Ronald Reagan airport had a strict time limit on the approach and then land. If the pilot dallied around in that airspace it was assumed to be hostile. Said Patriot batteries and the destroyer were well within range.

Glad to see a 20’ drone is small. Maybe next time they will be armed and dive into the bunkers.
