Look at this. They're totally doing their job of anticipating future threats and acting to thwart the bad guys. It's a lucky coincidence that the anticipated drone show has happened shortly before the vote to finance that act.

The governor, then urged Congress to pass the Counter-UAS Authority Security, Safety, and Reauthorization Act, so that state police can continue to investigate the mysterious drone sightings.

The $12B/yr. funding that is set to expire on the 20th of this month.

"This bill would reform legal authorities to counter-UAS (Unmanned Aircraft Systems) and strengthen the FAA's [Federal Aviation Administration] oversight of drones, and would extend counter-UAS activities to select state and local law enforcement agencies," she said. "Extending these powers to New York State and our peers is essential. Until those powers are granted to state and local officials, the Biden Administration must step in by directing additional federal law enforcement to New York and the surrounding region to ensure the safety of our critical infrastructure and our people."

This is just how fucking dumb that they think we are.

Create a problem so you can offer a solution. It's so obvious and they don't even care.

Well, you do keep accepting their bullshit, and paying them for the privilege.

They are demanding $12B/yr to do something about it.
