New Jersey Mayor Connects Missing Radioactive Material From Port Newark to Mysterious Drones

Mayor Michael Melham of Belleville, New Jersey, revealed that radioactive material had gone missing in the context of the mysterious drones over his state.

The stunning revelation is a new clue in the ongoing mystery that has captured the imagination and caused something of a hysteria and came during a Tuesday morning appearance on Fox5’s Good Day New York,

“Information has not been forthcoming,” Melha opened, “and it’s this lack of transparency, in my opinion, that’s doing nothing but fueling conspiracy theories online.”

One major conspiracy came to light over the weekend when a TikTok video from a self-described military drone expert went viral for suggesting that the drones were part of some sort of surveillance operation for either a gas leak or nuclear-radioactive material, which gained traction when Joe Rogan promoted it.

“I think they’d be better off saying what it is our military knows and what our president knows,” President-elect Donald Trump said during a wide-ranging press conference at Mar-a-Lago, suggesting a lack of transparency at the highest levels of the US Government. “And for some reason, they want to keep people in suspense.” Melham shared details that the federal government has not yet made public.

“I know that we were told by our state police that we have assets over our critical infrastructure,’ he said. “Now, depending on your point of view, that’s either concerning or comforting. I think it’s comforting because it’s probably us listening and watching. We also know that we have drones that are flying in a grid like pattern.”

“In my opinion, they’re looking for something,” continued. “What might they be looking for? Well, potentially, we’re aware of a threat that came in through Port Newark. Maybe that’s radioactive material. There was an alert that’s out right now that radioactive material in New Jersey has gone missing. On December 2nd was a shipment. It arrived at its destination. The container was damaged and it was empty. So we’re looking.”

He then confirmed that this revelation “came from the US government” before going into more depth and providing more details.

“It was lost in New Jersey in transit,” he said of the alleged missing radioactive material. “And again, this is just an example of what I think that we’re sniffing for. I think we do have the assets that can go up and fly around and and sniff thing, which is why we’re not seeing the uptick we used to see in Belleville anymore. It’s kind of moving, but we’re seeing alerts and it’s happening now in Pennsylvania.”

When pressed on why the federal government wasn’t forthcoming, Mayor Melham said, “That’s the crazy part about this. And we’ve gotten very little information even yesterday on that call with the White House. Literally, mayors were told, you guys are seeing things — there’s no credibility to this. We have one mayor, like I said, had drones over his house. I mean, we’re no longer going to stand for not hearing the truth. I mean, our state government is failing us. They’re not getting the answers from the federal government. And even though yesterday they told us that there’s nothing to see here today, there’s a top-secret briefing going on in Congress. What are they being told? That we weren’t told yesterday?”
