In the Trump White House’s first press briefing, the President revealed that the drones spotted last year over the eastern United States were authorized by the FAA.
From App. A week after taking office, President Trump said in a statement that the thousands of drones that were seen over the skies of New Jersey were not from foreign adversaries, but were instead authorized by the FAA.

That statement raised numerous questions about why the FAA did not tell the FBI and law enforcement officers that the flights had been authorized by them, or why the FAA did not acknowledge that they had authorized the drone flights. …
What did President Trump say about drones?
Since his election, Trump had promised that he would get to the bottom of the drone mystery that gripped New Jersey since November, noting that drones had been spotted over his golf course in Bedminster. Here’s what he said in a statement he found after “research and study”:

“The drones that were flying over New Jersey in large numbers were authorized to be flown by FAA for research and various other reasons … this was not the enemy,” Trump said in a written statement read by Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt at the first press briefing of the new administration.
There was no further explanation as to what “research and various other reasons” the FAA had authorized.
In the statement, Leavitt said many of the drones spotted over New Jersey were also flown by hobbyists for recreational purposes. …
Why didn’t the FAA tell law enforcement or state officials it was them?
The FAA did not directly answer that question or say why the FAA did not admit the drones had been authorized by that agency. …
How is this different from what the Biden administration said?
The FAA never admitted during the uproar about drones last year that they had authorized the flights.
In December, White House Communications Adviser John Kirby said “many” drones were actually lawfully operated manned aircraft that pose no national security or public threat.
He did not disclose that the drones had been authorized by the FAA. …
Why the discrepancy?
There has been no official explanation as to why the FAA failed to tell New Jersey law enforcement, elected officials, as well as the public, that they had authorized all the mysterious drone flights before the White House statement Tuesday.
There was also no explanation why, if the FAA had authorized the flights, the agency then placed temporary flight restrictions over parts of New Jersey for “special security reasons.” …
What does law enforcement say?
When the swarms of drones were first reported over New Jersey in November, state police, as well as local law enforcement, scrambled to track and monitor the drones and often questioned why they were unable to find where the drones were launching from or where they landed. …
After Trump’s statement on Tuesday, Monmouth County Sheriff Shaun Golden expressed “extreme disappointment with the Federal Aviation Administration” in a post on Facebook, noting that the drone activity “caused widespread panic and fear among residents.” …

Although we now know that the drones were authorized by the FAA, we DON’T KNOW:
1. For what purpose the drones were authorized.
2. Why the FAA wouldn’t provide other government agencies any explanations.
Dear Heavenly Father,
We know that you know the answers to these questions and that You will use this situation to bring about Your perfect Will.
We pray that we will become able to trust those in governmental positions to be trustworthy.
In Jesus’ precious name I pray.
Amen.🙏🏻
You stated: “Although we now know that the drones were authorized by the FAA….”
I would correct that to: “Although, according to the Trump Administration, the drones were authorized by the FAA….”
The Biden Administration was the worst, or so it would seem, at being honest and transparent (about many things — not limited to the drones) with the electorate; however, the new administration might have its own reasons, too, for being less-than-forthcoming (number one, potentially: to placate the masses).
Bottom line:
1. We still know next to nothing about the drones (including who, for certain, might have “authorized” them). If nothing else, one positive outcome of the dark, disastrous Biden years: Many citizens are now much more awakened to being skeptical of what the government tells them (including when that government is headed by someone, President Trump, who appears, on the surface, to be a major upgrade from his predecessor — but time will tell).
2. Question everything.
I agree, Michael!
Lord, You know the possible uses and misuses of current technology better than any human being. Please grant us wisdom and discernment, so that we can entrust our safety and wellbeing to You in an increasingly unfamiliar and uncomfortable environment. Nothing catches You by surprise, nor finds You unprepared – so help us rest in You.
Please encourage and enable greater interagency communication and cooperation in our government, so that situations like this can be avoided. Public mistrust is at an all-time high, and doesn’t need extra fuel if it can be avoided as well.
This does not pass the “smell test” to me. I pray that God would reveal the full truth behind the drones’ appearance.
