The drone mystery engulfing the East Coast has MAGA in overdrive — and they’re sharing some truly bizarre theories about what is going on.
Since Nov. 18, strange flying crafts have been seen buzzing the skies — first in New Jersey, but also in New York, Connecticut, Pennsylvania, Massachusetts and Virginia.
In a statement last week, the FBI and the Department of Homeland Security said there’s “no evidence at this time that the reported drone sightings pose a national security or public safety threat or have a foreign nexus.”
But the country’s right-wing is not so sure — and the Daily Beast rounded up some of their most bizarre explanations of what's going on.
Comedian Roseanne Barr linked the flying objects to “Project Blue Beam,” a conspiracy theory that states the government in planning to stage a fake alien invasion to trigger panic and put in place authoritarian controls.
“Now you see why I mention Project Blue Beam every week on my podcast,” she wrote on X at the weekend.
Infowars host Alex Jones agreed, inviting a supposed UFO expert, Steven Greer, onto his show.
“They all have this agenda to want to control the world through one calamity after the other, and the big one they’ve been planning is the hoax of an alien threat from outer space,” he said.
Rep. Marjorie Taylor Green (R-GA) also believes the government is involved.
“The government is in control of the drones and refuses to tell the American people what is going on. It really is that bad,” she posted to X at the weekend.

In another post on Sunday, she wrote, “The government needs to come clean and tell the American people what is going on. That’s the most infuriating part to me. The government lies and hides everything while the people have to pay for it all.”
The Daily Wire’s Matt Walsh was not so sure of a government conspiracy, though.
"Anyone who merely thinks they’re aliens is stupid,” he wrote. “I know they’re aliens. There’s literally no other plausible explanation."
Rep. Jeff Van Drew (R-NJ), believes the crafts are coming from an Iranian “mothership.
“We aren’t being told the truth,” he told Fox News last week. “They are dealing with the American public like we’re stupid.”
