Whoopi Floats Strangest Theory Yet To Explain Drones Over East Coast

Whoopi Goldberg added to the already rampant conspiracy theories about recent drone sightings over the East Coast, suggesting that they would soon span the entire nation’s airspace in preparation for a large New Year’s Eve party.

Goldberg shared her take on Monday’s broadcast of “The View” on ABC, following days of sightings that seem to have centered over northern New Jersey — and multiple accounts from local officials who say they can’t identify what they are or where they’ve come from.

“I think they know what it is,” Goldberg said, referencing the federal government. “I think they’re not going to be able to say it.”

She then pivoted to offer a different theory, adding, “We’re going to get a really hell of a big party for New Year’s Eve. It’s going to be like a dome over all 50 states of these drones.”

Her suggestion prompted laughs from around the table, and she continued, “Well, why not? Stranger things have happened.”

Goldberg’s comments come after a series of Biden administration officials have addressed the situation, all suggesting that they do not know for certain what people are seeing but nevertheless insisting that there is no risk to the general public.

“We’ve deployed personnel, technology, and if there is any reason for concern, if we identify any foreign involvement or criminal activity, we will communicate with the American public accordingly,” DHS Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas told ABC News anchor George Stephanopoulos. “Right now, we are not aware of any. If we become aware of any, we will communicate accordingly and take appropriate action.”

The White House Press Corps received a similar statement from retired Admiral John Kirby, who is currently serving as communications adviser for the National Security Council.

Former Governor Chris Christie (R-NJ) pushed back, however, saying that he had lived in the Garden State his entire life and until recently, had never witnessed a drone flying over his home.
