Trump reveals what New Jersey drones REALLY were as White House admits craft were conducting ‘research’

President Donald Trump has revealed the truth behind the mysterious drones over New Jersey, saying they were authorized to conduct ‘research.’

Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt read a statement from Trump on Wednesday, saying: ‘The drones that were flying over New Jersey in large numbers were authorized to be flown by the FAA for research and various other reasons.’

She continued to explain many of the drones were ‘hobbyists, recreational and private individuals’ and ‘in time, it got worse due to curiosity.’

The statements come months after the first drones appeared in November, soaring above military bases and Trump’s golf course in Bedminster, sparking fears of foreign threats watching American citizens. 

However, Leavitt assured the public that ‘this was not the enemy.’

Trump said on January 10 that he would share a a report on drones ‘about one day into the administration,’ predicting that it was likely ‘[the US] that’s sending the drones.’

This is a developing story… More updates to come.
