If people had any doubts that the Democrats are simply not a serious Party anymore that apprehension should dissipate after one ranking member offered a ridiculous explanation for the SUV sized drones that have been seen in New Jersey and other locations in the northeast.

Rep. Jim Himes, the ranking Democrat on the House Intelligence Committee, spoke to “FOX News Sunday” host Jacqui Heinrich that the massive drones are just teenagers playing around.

“Let me say something that I know with — with confidence. It is not the Iranians. It is not the Chinese. They aren’t Martians. I know that’s very unsatisfying for people who want a Hollywood movie out of this,” he said.

“And you know what they don’t do is put a bunch of drones that we could easily recover over the continental United States. The Chinese learned that lesson, of course, with their spy balloon,” Himes continued.

“And you’re right. I can’t say with 100% probability. But to Nicole’s point, you know, it’s just the military is amazing at what they do. An aircraft carrier has 6,000 amazing people on it who will defeat the Iranians. What they’re not very good at doing is identifying if there’s 12 teenage boys in Montclair, New Jersey, flying Walmart drones. The military is not very good at identifying that and dealing with that. So again, it’s a deep breath moment,” he said.

“But you’re right. The federal agency has got to be putting a lot more information out there about the nature of the problem, even if they don’t know what any given specific blinking light over Asbury Park is this morning,” Himes added.

“I’ve got two 20-something daughters, right? Either one of them could walk into a Walmart, spend a little bit of money, get a drone, you know, fly it next to somebody’s window with a camera and start taking pictures of what’s happening inside that house or worse, by the way, that’s probably not going to be a Department of Homeland Security problem to solve,” he said.
