so you you mentioned drones and I want
to I want to talk about this because
I've been disappointed by the coverage
in the Press about the drones over New
Jersey the drones over the Northeast the
the only reason this wasn't earlier
because I'm glad we're talking about it
only reason it wasn't earlier is by the
time this airs I hope we know what these
are uh so yeah but say more so it okay
so when we talk about the drones that
are happening right now over the
northeast or the drones in recent
history over the Northeast y there are
two things happening simultaneously but
they're not being differentiated in the
Press first there are legitimate
reports of drones operating over areas
of interest in Germany in the UK in
military bases on the East and the West
Coast going all the way back to 2019
whoa all the way back to 2019 reported
by the US military reported and
investigated by the FBI I've been called
in to do investigations to support both
to help them try to understand what
they're
seeing when the military talks about
drones they're not talking about what
the [ __ ] media is showing on TV a
military drone does not have generally
four
propellers a green light and a red light
a front white light and a top white
light that flashes that's not a military
drone that's a civilian drone or that's
an airplane or that's a helicopter
that's all standard FAA lighting
configurations so yes there is truth to
the current reports and the recent
reports that say the majority of ident
the majority of drone sightings are are
what we call false positives right it
looks like a drone it sounds like a
drone because it's coming from somebody
who has no [ __ ] idea what a drone
looks or sounds like they're actually
seeing a private Cessna at 2,000 ft that
sounds like a lawn mower and has all the
right lighting configuration not a drone
right but the reports that the military
has seen over Ramstein over the UK BAS
over Langley Air Force Base in Virginia
the most significant sighting of all
happened in 2019 was a swarm of between
75 and
150 drones that are military style
drones think about your Reaper right
fixed Wing blacked out no lights moving
at more than 100 miles an hour in swarm
configurations that fly over an area of
interest and then fly back right we're
talking about a normal drone has a range
of
30 miles 70 miles maybe a commercial
drone a Reaper has ranges in the
thousands of miles right they have
drones for the US military that are
recharged by sunlight so you just launch
that son of a [ __ ] above the clouds and
it can go on for days and it can just
loiter wow and it can collect infrared
it can collect signals intelligence it
can collect whatever and then it can fly
back what the military has reported
going back to November of this year is
those drones blacked out drones not
operated by a man pilot operating on
code and signals and transmitting a
radio signal that's usually reserved for
satellite technology but coming from the
air from the space above our heads
that's what they're talking about that's
what's in Virginia that's what's in
California that's what's in Maryland
that's what's been reported multiple
times over that has never really made
headlines because of the way the media
works not it's not government controlled
but media just does do care about
actually interesting things they care
about what's happening with the
Kardashians yeah so there are real
drones that are really suspect that are
really being collected by the military
and then there's Tom Dick and Nancy your
dumb voter out there with a [ __ ]
camera out there with a camera who are
capturing air traffic and Reporting it
to the police and the police don't know
what the [ __ ] to do with that so now
you're burying the real Intel in all
this chaos right FBI has known and
they've been investigating through the
increasing UAP research groups that have
been funded by DOD and funded by the
Congress they've been researching what
these things are because it's scary it's
actually scary it is a legit foreign
intelligence collection platform very
similar to the China spy balloon in 2023
it's a capability that exists it exists
for us too no everybody's known we've
had that drone capability since the
global war on terror but others are
producing the same capability and nobody
knows what to do with it so there's two
things happening the media only talks
about the first and the more that I see
reports from people saying oh it's just
it's just residents reporting on air
traffic that's not completely incorrect
but they're glazing over the fact that
this whole thing
started when the UK reported drones that
had no lights and transmitted radio
signals flying over American military
bases in the UK that's where this
started on November 20th it wasn't
December 1st when there was December 5th
there's a Manhunt for Luigi mangion the
guy who shot Brian Thompson from United
Healthcare there's a Manhunt happening
for him on the northeast guess what it
includes drones so the skies above New
York and Pennsylvania and Maryland light
up with drones at the same time that the
police are reporting that they're on a
Manhunt using drones I'm not surprised
here folks of course you're seeing
drones overhead
but don't don't lose the signal in the
noise so what do you think it is I think
that there's a foreign intelligence
collection happening against the United
States that has been happening against
the United States but that is now at
risk of coming to light so that's why
you see a unified messaging from the US
government that says you don't have to
worry because they know they can't do
anything about it why can't they shoot
them down what happens if you shoot down
a drone over a populated city like
Maryland like Baltimore uhhuh uh meaning
it'll crash on the city so what do you
think Americans are going to accept a
lie from the federal government saying
they don't have to worry
or five people dead because it crashed
into an apartment complex but it gave
them a chance to collect the technology
that was out there no not only that but
when you shoot it down some point it has
to go back to wherever it came from why
not track it that's what they're doing
if you shoot the [ __ ] down you can't
track it back they're collecting
information about how the SAT how they
communicate with each other they're
tracking the locations they're tracking
the altitude they're tracking the
distances what people don't understand
is that all the technology out there
from from missile Shields to counter uas
technology it has parameters you don't
just look at everything happening in the
sky you have to tell things what
aperture to look at what altitude to
look at what time of day what speed like
you have to you have to give parameters
to the tool so if you tell the tool to
look at 5,000 ft anything moving faster
than 100 miles hour something could be
moving less than 100 milph and not
trigger the system our adversaries know
that and the [ __ ] adversaries know
exactly what our settings are because
that's why they've been committing
industrial Espionage and corporate
Espionage and government Espionage for
the last 30 years against us so this is
their chance to see if we pick them up
if we don't pick them up and the United
States always has the opportunity to
just call it a UFO or a
UAP again I'm not making this [ __ ] up if
you just look at look at the news
reporting the week before the China spy
balloon and look at the news reporting
for about the next two months after the
China spy balloon there were UFOs in the
sky until we said oh actually it's a
Chinese spy balloon then people lost
their [ __ ] we blew up the Spy balloon
and then guess what there were three
more balloons that flew overhead over
the next three months what' we call them
UFOs and we didn't budge from that
they're just UFOs we don't know what
they are folks they're just UFOs and the
UFO Community was like oh there's aliens
visiting us the government was just like
America can't handle if we tell them
it's another it's
spy balloon and then the government shot
down science balloons from like what was
it the University of uh Auburn and
somebody else they were shooting down
science balloons because the technology
that we had couldn't identify the
payload on the
balloon like the government is not as
well equipped as we all think it is it's
not Mission Impossible it's not James
Bond it's always adapting to what the
adversary is throwing at us and the
adversary is always adapting to what
we're not looking for right so swarms of
of UA of UFOs of uaps of uas whatever
they want to call them now swarms of
drones flying on the outskirts of
American airspace making incursions and
excursions collecting what they can from
signals intelligence imagery analysis
infrared technology collecting
everything they can autonomously flown
using only sat why would they use
satellite radio signals because guess
what they're communicating with
satellites to get back to their home
station because you don't even need
groundbased relays if you have something
flying high enough at
altitude we've known this in military
circles we've known this in intelligence
circles we've known this in open source
circles for a long time it's just never
made mainstream news now that it has
started to make mainstream news your
dumb voter has intervened and has buried
the story which is very convenient to
what the government needs to be able to
get out of this wow that is uh very
shocking that we would rather be aliens
than uh foreign intelligence why is that
shocking why is that shocking though
think about it if you know that it's a
foreign adversary over your head that
scares the [ __ ] out of you when you know
when you believe it's an alien overhead
you're mixed could be hopeful could be
bad could be neutral we want to feel
safe that's
[ __ ] that's actually [ __ ] I'm
very angry right now it really does make
me um feel like we're not doing the
right thing if we're not addressing it I
do default to keep the public informed I
know though that that's naiv at scale
and so I want to acknowledge that but
what what is the play here I think the
play is wise unfortunately and I don't
have many me keep lying to the to the
public wow and I mean hate me if you
want to hate me but the truth is when
you keep the secrets you have the power
you can always release a secret but you
can't ever put it back in its box so if
you have secrets keep them it's why
business owners know this instinctively
you don't tell your competition your
secret sauce there's no benefit to you
in doing that the federal government
knows there's no benefit in telling the
people the public what they're actually
seeing in the sky there's a benefit in
telling them what the public is seeing
in the sky but there's no benefit in
telling them what they the military and
the government are actually seeing in
the sky that is worth further research
because when you acknowledge a secret
yes you tell the public which you may
have a responsibility for but you also
tell the
adversary and if you're trying to
protect the public you can't tell the
adversary so until we have some kind of
technology that lets us inform American
citizens but not inform everybody else
we have to keep the
secret yeah okay uh I get that I need to
think through it more to have an
official opinion but when we're seeing
them sort of nakedly out in the open God
continually lying to the public anyway
I'm gonna plant a flag in that as
something I need to contend with in my
own mind and I think it's a good flag to
plant I think we should all be flagging
ourselves to say are we comfortable
being lied to I am comfortable being
lied to my time in the government my
time at CIA made me very very
comfortable with being racial profiled
it made me very comfortable with not
having the levels of privacy that we're
all told we have it made me very
comfortable with the government keeping
secrets from me because I can see the
benefit for me in all three of these
areas that isn't just blind
ignorance like racially profile me
absolutely I'm a brown guy with black
hair I got a shady ass looking you don't
know whether I'm [ __ ] Palestinian or
Israeli or Sunni or Shia or or Indian
you don't know what I am so pull my ass
over let me show you my driver's license
because I'm [ __ ] American it's going
to be a five-minute inconvenience to me
and then I'm done and especially if it's
like a local cop if I live in a place
where there's only 12 or 15 cops of
police me anyways they all know who I am
and then they stop suspecting me of
being whatever the [ __ ] they think I am
because they know what I am I have zero
problem with me being racially profiled
I understand if other people don't like
it you want to listen to my phone calls
you want to read my emails go right
ahead cuz you know what I'm not doing
cheating on my taxes cheating on my wife
or stealing from my own company not
doing it so you're going to waste your
time but you're also going to confirm
that I'm not the suspect you're looking
for somewhere out there there are bad
people doing bad things disguising
themselves as good people doing good
things you're never going to find them
unless you have a chance to rule me out
so I'm completely okay with that and now
that I've been part of CIA and I've seen
the secrets that we have to keep not
just from ourselves but also from other
intelligence agen
when there's a spy at
NSA you can't tell NSA who you suspect
their spy to be you have to tell FBI so
FBI can look into it because if you tell
NSA it might leak back to that person
there's always a reason to keep a secret
and I benefit when the government keeps
the right Secrets when the government's
keeping secrets because they're
inefficient or or uh corrupt or uh or
whatever incompetent that's a whole
different story but I still understand
the value of Secrets if you like this
