Yet, MacCallum wasn’t buying it. She called out the absurdity of the administration’s stance, pointing to photographic evidence and asking Kirby to examine it. In a bizarre moment, Kirby admitted he had turned off his monitor, saying, “It distracted me.” This refusal to engage with direct evidence left MacCallum and her audience stunned.
The administration’s handling of this issue draws uncomfortable parallels to its response to the infamous Chinese spy balloon incident in 2023. At the time, the White House delayed action until the balloon had traversed the entire U.S. and gathered intelligence over sensitive military sites. Secretary of Defense Lloyd Austin later confirmed the balloon had compromised communications and movements at several bases, yet President Biden downplayed the incident as “not a major breach.”

MacCallum highlighted this troubling precedent, likening it to the current drone mystery. She questioned why, despite an $824 billion defense budget, the administration remains unable—or unwilling—to provide clear answers about objects flying over U.S. soil. “This is shocking,” she declared. “We have the greatest intelligence capability in the world. How can you stand there and say to the country right now, ‘Gosh, darn, we just don’t know what these are’?”
Kirby maintained that safety was a key factor in the administration’s hesitance to shoot down one of the drones, even when they were observed following a U.S. Coast Guard ship in the ocean. He claimed, “You’re not going to want to shoot something down where it could hit somebody’s house or hurt somebody.”
MacCallum pushed back, pointing out the absurdity of not taking action over open waters where public safety wouldn’t be a concern. She also raised the possibility that these drones could be linked to private companies or even military projects, referencing speculation that the drones might be Taradynamics transwing models. Despite this avenue of inquiry, Kirby could only offer vague assurances that the administration was investigating.

This lack of transparency has only deepened public mistrust in the Biden administration. From the chaotic withdrawal in Afghanistan to the mishandling of domestic security issues, critics argue the administration has repeatedly prioritized damage control over decisive action. Kirby’s inability to provide a timeline for answers during the interview underscored this perception. “When are we going to have answers?” MacCallum asked pointedly. Kirby could only promise, “We are working on this very, very hard.”
For a nation grappling with a growing sense of insecurity, vague reassurances are no substitute for leadership. As MacCallum rightly noted, Americans deserve clear answers—not excuses.
Americans (mainly the Conservative Voters): Hello. To reflect on the previous spying opportunity permitted by obiden (the infamous balloon across our entire Country)…the drones across much of our Country, but mostly on the East coast, New Jersey…it is another deny and evasive deflect (called a lie) by obiden. the obiden on-the-treasonous take to countries hostile to our Country.
A disgrace ! Obviously obiden will do nothing up to 20 Jan 2025…as he surely makes more on-the-take cash the longer this lie goes UNanswered.
Some American will manage to take a drone down and we will get answers that way. obiden WILL be held accountable for the mountain of lies throughout his regime…but the BIGGEST is the sheer insanity of…how DARE he violate our Country with the 4 years of our border sovereignty that caused deaths that should never have happened if our borders were closed, and the wanton, cavalier uncaring hardship to and destruction of our economy, our lives, and dramatic increase in the cost of living. This all MUST be made accountable with severe consequences that will cause obiden to live the rest in prison. THAT is your “legacy”…good riddance.
