President Donald Trump has weighed in on the mysterious drone sightings over New Jersey, claiming the military and federal agencies know where the drones originated but are deliberately keeping the information from the public.
Speaking to reporters from Mar-a-Lago in Palm Beach, Florida, Trump said the government likely has detailed knowledge about the drones. “Our military knows where they took off from and where they went.
