President-elect Donald Trump made a bold claim about the ongoing New Jersey drone mystery, stating that 'the government knows what is happening' despite official denials from federal and state authorities. This contradicts previous statements from officials who have admitted to not knowing the reason behind the mysterious drone sightings.
President-elect Donald Trump stated 'the government knows what is happening' when questioned about the New Jersey drone mystery during a wide-ranging Monday morning news conference. This contradicts official statements from federal and state authorities who have said they don't know why mysterious drones have been reported flying over New Jersey , Staten Island and elsewhere in recent weeks. The Pentagon has stated that the aircraft are not U.S.
military drones, and officials have refuted claims that the drones spotted are part of a nefarious plot by foreign agents.

'I can’t imagine it’s the enemy because if it was the enemy, they’d blast it out, even if they were late, they’d blast it,' the president-elect said Monday. 'They know where it came from and where it went, and for some reason, they don’t wanna comment, and I think they’d be better off saying what it is,' he added. 'Our military knows, and our president knows, and for some reason, they wanna keep people in suspense.' Drones have even been spotted over Trump’s golf course in Bedminster. 'I won't spend the weekend in Bedminster. I've decided to cancel my trip,' Trump joked Monday. When asked if he had received an intelligence briefing on the drones, Trump said 'I don't wanna comment on that.' This isn't the president-elect's first comment on the drone mystery. 'Let the public know, and now. Otherwise, shoot them down!!!' he posted on his social media site Truth social on Friday. Meanwhile, New Jersey Gov. Phil Murphy, as well as law enforcement officials, have stressed the drones don’t appear to be a threat to public safety, but many state and municipal lawmakers have nonetheless called for stricter rules about who can fly the unmanned aircraft. Dozens of witnesses reported seeing the drones in the state beginning in November
