Santa, Please Bring Me A War For Christmas<\/span><\/p>\n

“Understand this deeply – you nearly lost your country and your freedom to a deranged, totalitarian-leaning enemy of our nation’s soul and destiny. Take this personally.” <\/em><\/p>\n

– Mel K<\/em><\/p>\n

So, you expected \u201cJoe Biden\u201d to serve up a neat little Christmas-time World War Three, lobbing ATACMS into Russia and all, but instead, surprise surprise, you got The War of the Worlds: mysterious drones hovering on-high over the endless muffler shops, manicure parlors, mafia palazzos, and mosques of New Jersey. <\/strong><\/p>\n

But there seems to be more to this than, say, the stunt that Orson Welles pulled in 1938, scaring a few rubes over the radio.<\/p>\n

This ain\u2019t no foolin\u2019 around.<\/strong><\/p>\n

<\/a><\/p>\n

It\u2019s been going on for weeks. <\/strong><\/p>\n

And not just in New Jersey. But around New York City, up the Hudson River Valley above Stewart Airport, over in Massachusetts, down in Pennsylvania, and out in Ohio in the vicinity of Wright-Patterson Air Force Base near Dayton Ohio.<\/p>\n

Howls of \u201cWTF\u201d echo all over the cable news channels. The US government \u2014 that is, the twilighting \u201cJoe Biden\u201d admin \u2014 plays dumb.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Alejandro Mayorkas, our unimpeachably frank Homeland Security chief told ABC-News on Sunday \u201cthat there\u2019s no question that drones are being sighted.\u201d I\u2019m sure that told you a lot. He went on to explain that the FAA changed its rules last year allowing drones to fly at night. Are we to suppose that avid US drone-owners waited until the very last month of this year to start flying their pet aircraft after dark? Pentagon spox John Kirby, added helpfully at a news conference that federal investigators had been \u201cunable to corroborate reports of any unauthorized drones above New Jersey.\u201d<\/p>\n

(Translation: DARPA and other Pentagon ops are too busy figuring out new ways to surveil and kill you to bother with these drone swarms.)<\/em><\/p>\n

Theories abound and multiply.<\/strong><\/p>\n

One is that these are US Govt drones seeking signals of radioactivity emanating from a nuclear bomb supposedly purloined out of Ukraine\u2019s old Soviet arsenal \u2014 and possibly stashed in a shipping container or some-such other hidey-hole along our east coast. It\u2019s a good story. It\u2019s rumored that some-60 Uke nukes from that era have gone missing in the decades since. Of course, the theoretical owner of such a device would have to be pretty dumb to not stash his nuke in a lead-shielded casket to prevent detection. In the meantime, what else can be said or done? Standing by on that mushroom cloud. . . .<\/p>\n

Blogger \/ Author and former White House stenographer (2002 \u2013 2018) Mike McCormick had a neat theory: that shipping interests were testing drone deliveries of imported goods from offshore in an attempt to work-around the longshoreman\u2019s union contract negotiations currently underway<\/strong><\/em>.<\/p>\n

The union has been fighting against automation that would eliminate the good-paying jobs of 85,000 dock-workers.<\/p>\n

Any takers on that one?<\/p>\n

Of course, it\u2019s difficult to swallow the govt\u2019s statements that, basically, they\u00a0dunno nuffins \u2018bout no drones<\/em>. <\/strong>There are enough of them flying over enough varied terrain that surely the USAF could find a way to shoot one down over a cow pasture in, say, Orange County, New York. I\u2019m frankly a little surprised that some enterprising civilian marksman hasn\u2019t popped off a few 7mm Remington mag loads into the hovering lights. At least they haven\u2019t said it\u2019s Santa Claus testing a new high-tech delivery system that would put his old-timey sleigh-and-reindeer out of business.<\/p>\n

The theory I lean toward is the notion that \u201cJoe Biden\u201d (meaning the DC blob) is desperately seeking some way to obstruct or fend-off the January 20th\u00a0inauguration of Mr. Trump. <\/strong>Because, well, to put it bluntly, a whole lot of blobistas are worried about going to jail when the likes of Kash Patel, John Ratcliffe, Tulsi-G, and Pam Bondi get their mitts on the levers of power and start opening up the files. They\u2019ve got thirty-five days to. . . to do something! (Somebody, please do something!!!)<\/p>\n

There was a lot of chatter all year long about a coming space alien emergency.<\/strong> I know, sounds preposterous, and even more so when you consider that the military arm of the blob would be so dumb as to try to pass off drones as alien spacecrafts \u2014 like something out of a 1950s horror movie when the \u201cspecial effects\u201d had to be done with puppets and balsa-wood models flying on wires. Maybe it\u2019s actually come to that in this super dumbed-down age. (Are you aware that the main diminishing return of our magical computer tech is that it\u2019s made our society an order-of-magnitude dumber across the board? Well, it has.)<\/p>\n

The situation remains fluid, with ongoing investigations and public discourse about the implications and origins of these drone activities.<\/p>\n

The FBI is on-the-case (so never fear!) along with Mr. Mayorkas and his outfit, and maybe even the US military.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Chill.<\/p>\n

They got this \u2014 as Hollywood loves to say. Go shopping. Have a goshdarn eggnog. Shut up.<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div>\n
