Flightradar24 is showing a half dozen KC 46 and an English Airbus 330 off the coast of central Baja but no fighters in the area to refuel.

Hmmmm

Never mind. Based on how close they are to each other I'd guess practice refueling each other

They do training there often, and I don't think the fighters will show up on flightradar.

We’re going to make it rain immigrants on Cinco De Mayo. Gotta practice giving immigrants their independence from America.

Some of our spy planes have been doing recon flights along the Baja peninsula. The cartels are getting plotted.

In the snippet about the plane going down in San Diego, they mentioned a large training exercise happening this week off the coast. Maybe all part of the same?

The U.S. Air Force-led air combat exercise is already underway and taking place from airbases along the California coastline. It’s a spin-off of Exercise Red Flag that was just held at Nellis Air Force Base this month. The participants from the latest iteration of this exercise, Red Flag 24-1, including U.S., Australian, and British squadrons, decamped from Nellis between January 26-27 and made the short hop to the west coast in preparation for Bamboo Eagle.
