For a while now, there have been drones popping up over New Jersey and other East Coast locations. The Biden administration has been either tight-lipped or dismissive of the aircraft, depending on which member of his staff you talk to (or if you ask Biden himself). New York governor Kathy Hochul called on Congress to do something about the drones, and one Congressman blamed the drones on Iran.

Now it finally seems the FAA is taking the drones seriously, calling them an ‘imminent security threat’ and threatening ‘deadly force’:

More from The New York Post:

The Federal Aviation Administration has temporarily banned drone operations over parts of New Jersey until mid-January and warned that the government may respond with “deadly force” against drones that pose a threat.

Beginning on Wednesday and through Jan. 17, unmanned aircraft are barred from flying within a nautical mile of specified airspace outlined in an FAA Notice to Airmen, or NOTAM.

The government may use “deadly force” against the drones if they present an “imminent security threat,” the NOTAM said.

We wonder what changed? The Biden administration was pretty blasé about these things until today, and now they’re an ‘imminent security threat.’

Weird, right?

The Department of Homeland Security doesn’t have the authority to act. The Department of Defense, on the other hand, did. And now the FAA has.

Should not have taken this long.

Okay, that made us chuckle.

Would this surprise anyone?

Make it make sense.

Could be related to the CR (and it’s failure).

The thing is: we’ll never know. We have an incompetent president, an absent VP, and a corrupt government on its way out the door.
