    These are drones with 6-foot span, not the regular recreational drones, and they are reported to by flying in a sort of a grid, and on a regular schedule, as well as flying near people and buildings.

    I'm surprised that some of the rural population hasn't opened fire on 'em. :D

    Trump's guys ? ? More likely it is Colorado Governor Pelosi oops Polis (who bought the governorship with 23 million of his own dollars and voted the way Pelosi told him to) and the now Democrat controlled Colorado legislature who are keeping track of the lives of Colorado citizens. Or, maybe they are trying to find the illegal marijuana fields so they can collect more taxes.

    The Air Force Academy has over 500 drones (check out their Christmas drone show on YouTube). Maybe they're having training maneuvers in Nebraska?

    There are lots of YouTube videos about these drones, and so far, they either do not know who is doing it, or they do know and are not saying. Obviously, it can’t be some secret training mission very well, since the whole state (and most of America) has now heard about this activity. The reports say that the drones are flying in formation, and there are a lot of them; so it is not just a few people who got a drone for Christmas out there flying them together.
    These people have experience in order to do flying formation with that many drones.

    The news has had reports for at least the last week of this happening, and apparently there is even a facebook page for it now. Here is one report and it says that next, Homeland Security will look into it, but the drones are not in protected airspace. They are not doing any damage or threatening anything; so apparently it is legal, except that they do not have the FAA permission to be flying them at night.

    You may have heard about the drones over New Jersey. There are now sighting of drone swarms over Philadelphia. Iranian? Chinese? Here are a couple disturbing short videos about the problem. They may be practicing for an attack.

    I hope I am not the only one thinking of the possibility of a drone attack on the inaugural of Donald J. Trump.

    I am now hearing from so-called whistle-blowers that these may be nuclear sniffer drones run by NEST, a division of the Department of Energy. I haven't heard if this is a drill or if these are being used because someone heard of a threat in the area around NYC, and New Jersey. Unable to confirm any of this of course, but it would explain unknown drones flying with lights on to avoid aircraft. The lights alone make me think they are not a threat. It would also allow them to publicly say they are not U.S. military-based.

    They are also saying that it is something that SpaceForce is doing. It seems really strange to me that neither President Trump or Elon Musk ….The Space Guy…. Has even mentioned these drones, or whatever they are.
    This makes me think that both men already know what is happening and it is either something they are doing for some reason, or they have to keep it quiet for security reasons.

    Maybe the aliens are really here ?
    We have been hearing about aliens coming, alien invasion, and fake alien invasion, for at least a year now; so maybe one or the other of those is happening for real.

    They are over Dallas as well. The government says "We determined that the ones we identified are manned aircraft." Whatever you say, comrade.

    As far as I'm concerned, if our government is saying "Not ours," the drones are the instruments of foreign entities.

    There's a fresh Next Door post about repeated sightings in the Charlottesville area as well as over the opposite side of the county. No one seems concerned. "Hobbyists" "Real Estate Photos [at night]" "The government's trying to figure what this is"

    edit to add link for those of you who have ND accounts

    I was gonna say that if the Fed disavows any knowledge of their actions, who's gonna file a complaint?

    I cannot imagine they are of foreign origin with evil intentions. Why would you have lights on them if you were attacking someplace?

    Yup. And unless I misunderstand the technology, the operator must be in reasonably close proximity of them.

    On the other hand, there were nefarious balloons floating around unmolested not all that long ago.
