On Thanksgiving Day, an elaborate and high-stakes operation involving U.S. Navy SEALs was reportedly launched with the goal of apprehending President Joe Biden during his holiday stay at a prestigious Nantucket estate owned by billionaire David Rubenstein. The mission was designed to either capture Biden on charges of treason or expose a possible body double or clone if Biden was not present. According to various sources, the operation encountered unforeseen complications upon arrival.

The mission was a complex endeavor, requiring a coordinated use of advanced military assets. This included a Navy SEAL team, a Los Angeles-class attack submarine, and a Special Operations aircraft equipped with the Fulton surface-to-air recovery system, commonly known as “Skyhook.” Developed by the CIA in the 1950s and depicted in the film *The Dark Knight*, the Skyhook system allows for the retrieval of individuals from the ground using a harness and sling.

The submarine, which had been stationed at Guantanamo Bay for security reasons following a prior attack, embarked on a challenging journey to Nantucket. Equipped with SEAL Delivery Vehicles (SDVs), the submarine navigated through narrow, shallow channels off the coast of Nantucket, where the depth was only 70 feet, near the submarine’s minimum operational depth. This required precise maneuvering to avoid sandbars and other underwater hazards.

Upon reaching the area near Nantucket late on Wednesday evening, the submarine’s crew had to maintain a low profile, staying just below periscope depth to avoid detection. The SEAL team, equipped with specialized gear, prepared for their mission, which involved deploying from the submarine and making their way to Rubenstein’s estate.

The plan called for the Special Operations aircraft to perform a low-altitude maneuver into restricted airspace, scoop up Biden, and then drop him into the ocean near the submarine. A recovery team would then bring the individual aboard the submarine. However, upon arriving at the estate, the SEALs were met with an unexpected and puzzling sight: the property was entirely deserted.

The estate, which should have been bustling with activity due to the high-profile visit, showed no signs of Biden, his family, or any Secret Service personnel. The SEAL team conducted thorough infrared scans of the buildings but found no heat signatures or signs of recent human activity—no cars, no tire tracks, and no visible presence.

This absence was particularly confusing given the media reports and social media activity suggesting that Biden and his family were indeed on Nantucket. Photographs circulated by mainstream media showed Biden and Jill handing out pumpkin pies at the Nantucket Fire Department earlier that day. Additionally, Biden’s niece had posted images on social media of the family participating in the “Cold Turkey Plunge,” a holiday swim in the bay. These reports appeared to contradict the SEALs’ observations of the deserted estate.

Faced with the absence of their target and growing concerns that their operation might have been a setup or trap, the SEALs considered the possibility that their mission had been anticipated and prepared for by adversarial elements. Fearing an unwinnable confrontation and the potential compromise of their submarine or aircraft, the SEAL team decided to abort the operation. The submarine and aircraft then made their way back to their respective bases.

The aborted mission, which reportedly cost taxpayers several million dollars, has led to speculation about the true nature of the Thanksgiving visit to Nantucket. Some have suggested that the reported holiday activities might have been a carefully orchestrated deception, with the reasons behind it remaining unclear. Despite the mission’s failure to achieve its objectives, sources reported that all military personnel and equipment involved were returned safely.

The aftermath of the operation has prompted ongoing debate and speculation about the intent and authenticity of the events surrounding the alleged Thanksgiving visit, as well as the broader implications for those involved.
