The Pentagon demonstrated questionable leadership Friday as concerns mount over mysterious drone activities across sensitive American locations, including military installations.

Recent reports indicate unidentified drones were observed across New Jersey, with sightings in twelve counties prompting local mayors to seek answers from their governor.

The situation has generated nationwide concern about potential foreign involvement. Representative Jeff Van Drew (R-NJ) cited credible sources claiming Iranian involvement, stating, “I learned from very high sources, from very qualified sources, Iran launched a mothership a month ago that contains these drones. It’s off the east coast of the United States.”

The drone phenomenon extends beyond New Jersey. Former Maryland Governor Larry Hogan confirmed personal observations of multiple drones near his residence recently, while similar sightings have been reported around U.S. military facilities.

The Defense Department’s lackluster response to these incidents has sparked criticism. Adding to the confusion, the agency published an incomprehensible test message on their website Friday, triggering widespread social media reactions.

The peculiar message prompted numerous social media responses:
