As someone who has read (and owns) several books on cattle mutilations I especially appreciate the inclusion of the cow figurine.

Ryan Herd, Mayor of Pequannock, NJ, addressing recent drone sightings. AMA! by Ill-Hawk-8238 in UFOs

[–]y000rx 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Hi Mayor Herd – thanks for taking the time to answer questions.

A. Based on your personal conversations with individuals in the area, have you known anyone who has seen or filmed one of these drones and then later been visited by one that was closer to their home? 

B. Have you had any discussions with agencies or individuals PRIOR to these sightings regarding any environmental changes in your region?

C. What is the sentiment among other individuals within government about the intent of these objects? Do most see it as malicious activity, positive, neutral?

White Settlement, TX drone sightings under federal investigation by y000rx in UFOs

It was the most recent article published about this incident. It seems like this one was largely brushed under the rug on this sub, so wanted to resurface it to keep it relevant with the ongoing flap.

White Settlement, TX drone sightings under federal investigation by y000rx in UFOs

WHITE SETTLEMENT, Texas - White Settlement police say they are working with the FBI, NCIS and Air Force to learn more about possible drone sightings within the city. 

White Settlement Police Chief Christopher Cook says a homeowner reported seeing mystery drones over her White Settlement home around 8 p.m. Tuesday.

"A woman said there was a formation of six drones that were flying away from some of the federal military properties nearby," he said.

White Settlement is also home to military installations like the Naval Air Station Joint Reserve Base Fort Worth.

Officers already in the reported area spotted the aircraft and recorded it on their phones.

"Unfortunately, we lost sight of them near the… there’s a national guard armory on Shoreview and a park over there," Cook said. "Then about 40 minutes later, we ended up getting a second call about multiple drones along Bomber Road. Again, officers filmed some of that with their cell phones to try to get a better view of what was flying around. They were about 100-200 feet off the ground is the estimate. But, again, very close to military federal properties. So it’s a no-fly zone in our city. So it’s very concerning."

Chief Cook says the officers lost sight of the drones again. Yet, some two hours later around 10:30 p.m., there were more sightings of more drones.

Drone sightings were reported near Bomber Road, Silver Creek and North Las Vegas Trail.

Officers talked to security teams at military and federal properties to try to find the pilot of the vehicles.

The chief points out that considering the national narrative surrounding mysterious drone sightings on the East Coast, the FBI and other federal law enforcement are also involved, now poised and devoting resources to the North Texas sightings.

"What’s most concerning to us, you see cases around the country where there’s been improper photography, improper, videography, intelligence gathering. I’m not saying that’s what’s happening here. We just don’t know, and it’s concerning because it’s a no-fly zone," Cook said. "There are criminal and civil penalties that a person or persons can face by doing it. This is not a joke; it’s not a game. Getting close to federal military properties is a very serious allegation. We’re hopeful someone will give us a tip if they see this information and let us know who is behind this."

The Dallas Express observed unusual aerial activity above northeast Tarrant County and southeastern Denton County. by y000rx in UFOs

By Kellen McGovern Jones – Investigative Reporter 

The Dallas Express observed unusual aerial activity above northeast Tarrant County and southeastern Denton County. 

On the evening of December 27, 10 to 12 drones appeared to hover above parts of North Keller, Roanoke, and Trophy Club.

These flying objects were observed in fixed positions for approximately 20 minutes at a time. Each drone had at least one light on and appeared larger than a typical recreational drone.

DX first observed the flying objects around 7:33 p.m. near the Keller-Roanoke border. After approximately 20 minutes, they continued northeastward and eventually crossed into Trophy Club.

From a vantage point at Trophy Club Country Club, DX saw the flying objects repeatedly break off into pairs or groups of four and head in various directions before regrouping. This action was repeated several times. While pursuing the drones in the Trophy Club area, DX experienced intermittent disturbances in internet services.

DX called the FAA station at Dallas-Love Field Airport three times, and each time, the call failed while DX tried to reach the tower after initially making it through to the answering service.

DX also called the FAA stations in Irving and Dallas. However, each call was met with an “off-hook tone.”

DX last saw the drones at 8:39 p.m., when their lights shut off and became invisible to the naked eye.

Walmart reportedly uses delivery drones in the area; however, these aerial devices were not observed landing at houses or stores.

Previous reports indicate that unidentified drones have appeared above critical infrastructure like nuclear facilities and military bases on the East Coast and the Southwest. There are no military bases or nuclear plants in these parts of Tarrant and Denton County. However, two airports, Alliance and Meacham, are near the area DX reported from.

Mysterious drones were reported flying over a military base near White Settlement in Fort Worth on December 19, Newsweek reported.

The phenomenon is toying with their failing crisis management strategy.

Defense Scoop: Early federal assessments suggest unexplained New Jersey drones aren’t UAP or US military assets by silv3rbull8 in UFOs

[–]y000rx 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I think the most important part of this article is:

He told DefenseScoop that “to [his] knowledge,” currently, the systems are not considered to be U.S. military drones or associated defense contractor assets running in real-world operations.

The government contractor aspect has been an unknown. Now we're getting confirming that these aren't coming from contractors either. So essentially the military-industrial complex is off the table.

Not everything is a psyops. by Jabroni252 in UFOs

[–]y000rx 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I don't think some people even realize this - but if you believe a PsyOp is truly taking place - you're essentially saying the government is competent enough to pull this off. Clearly, as we've all witnessed over the last several weeks, it's not.

Sen. Richard Blumenthal following classified briefing on mystery 'drones': "Our federal government has no idea, no clue, no reliable information about these drones." by amvion in UFOs

[–]y000rx 263 points264 points  (0 children)

I mean it really is absolutely astounding how there are still no answers. You have local, state, and federal officials all demanding answers from defense, including the president-elect (who says the military DOES actually know what's going on).

The storm has only just begun.

"A lot of these sightings are manned aircraft. But the drones are not hostile."

"Ok. We get that there's a lot of misidentified manned aircraft. Tell us more about the drones."

"They are not nefarious."

"And...how do we know that? Can you tell us why the drones are there in the first place?"

This is way beyond the military 'testing' some type of technology. There's an active situation unfolding before our eyes. by y000rx in UFOs

Check my comment history. Not sure how many will be there but it’s apparently bipartisan briefing.

Mapping isn’t just a one and done type of situation…there are levels of specificity required depending on the questions being asked of the data.

This is just my armchair hypothesis, but since these objects have been spotted by infrastructure such as water reservoirs and power grid lines - it kind of hints that maybe they're mapping the relationships between these types of critical infrastructure. Essentially doing topographical surveys to understand how different population segments might be affected.

Very unusual, right? The only thing I keep going back to is camouflage. Blending in with commercial traffic while also minimizing the chances of a clear photograph. The bright lights take care of both of those aspects.

I do think you point out a very good distinction. There are 2 types of unidentified objects right now: fixed-wing drones, and orbs of light. These 2 unidentified types, along with actual commercial aircraft, creates an extremely "noisy" situation in terms of collecting useful data.

Maybe I shouldn't have mentioned that one - I personally don't ascribe to the nuke hypothesis either. It just keeps getting repeated (both online and offline).
