The Spin

These drone incursions pose a serious national security threat. Foreign adversaries could be gathering crucial intelligence on America's most advanced military assets. The Pentagon's inability to effectively counter these drones exposes a significant vulnerability in our defense systems.

These could be harmless civilian drones or even misidentified natural phenomena. Overreacting could lead to unnecessary tensions with other nations.
