Another day, another bizarre episode from the Biden administration, this time involving a swarm of drones hovering ominously over New Jersey. Karoline Leavitt, the new White House press secretary, wasted no time in clarifying the source of these high-flying gadgets at her first briefing. According to a statement relayed from President Trump, the drones were sponsored by none other than the FAA—because who wouldn’t want to spice up their daily drone-flying with some good old-fashioned federal oversight?
Interestingly, this sudden revelation comes after weeks of speculation that these mysterious drones might be the harbingers of an alien invasion or, more likely, an attack from a foreign power like Iran. One could easily imagine a Hollywood blockbuster plot unfolding, with drones careening across the skyline like harbingers of doom. But alas, it turns out they were mainly operated by hobbyists and curious locals—probably showcasing their latest drone-capturing techniques or attempting a new form of birdwatching with flying robots.

The situation has left many scratching their heads, not only because of the drones themselves but also due to the sheer chaos created by the Biden administration’s handling of the entire affair. If the FAA approved these drones without informing the public, then why the radio silence? Panic ensued as many everyday Americans feared a secret military invasion was occurring right above their heads, all while the federal government sat back and sipped on their soy lattes. The Biden White House really knows how to keep everyone on their toes, or perhaps more accurately, on the edge of their seats.
Even FBI Assistant Director Robert Wheeler was caught off guard, stating that the agency was “actively investigating” the matter. This leads one to wonder whether the government is taking its cues from the “If we ignore it, maybe it’ll go away” school of thought when it comes to urgent national security issues. Despite the calming words from Trump and a quick denial about the existence of a so-called “mothership” off the coast of the East Coast, it seems the public is still left with more questions than answers about these high-flying contraptions.
In what can only be described as a masterclass in miscommunication, the federal response has undoubtedly left the nation wondering who really is at the helm of this ship—or rather, who is supposed to be keeping the skies clear. The drone debacle exemplifies the kind of confusion that plagues the Biden administration, where clarity is about as rare as a snowstorm in July. One thing is for sure: Americans would love a little less drone drama and a lot more straightforward leadership.
