President-elect Trump claims that President Biden’s administration “knows what’s happening” regarding unexplained drone sightings over New Jersey, New York and other states.

Trump made the statement Monday during a lengthy news conference with reporters at Mar-a-Lago, saying the U.S. military certainly knows the origins of the drones.

“The government knows what is happening. Look, our military knows where it started. If it’s a garage, they can go straight in. “You know where it came from and where it went,” Trump said.

“For some reason they don’t want to comment and I think they would be better off saying what it is. Our military knows it. Our president knows it, and for some reason they want to keep people on edge,” he continued. “I can’t imagine it’s the enemy, because if it was the enemy they would blow it up.”

A reporter then asked Trump whether he had received any classified information about the drone situation. He replied: “I don’t want to comment on that.”

Trump’s statement comes about a day after the Senate majority leader Chuck SchumerDN.Y., called on the Department of Homeland Security to deploy 360-degree radar systems to detect drones in the New York and New Jersey regions.

“Our locals who have questions about these drones shouldn’t have to shake an eight-ball to get an answer,” Schumer said, holding a magical eight-ball toy in one hand and a picture of a drone in the other.

“They want real answers, and Robin can provide those answers, and that’s why we want them here,” Schumer said, likely referring to the Dutch company Robin Radar Systems, which makes such systems.
