Depending on the exercise, you may not want people knowing or you may just give them minimal information to keep people from being injured.But why wouldn't they fill in local military bases and local police or maybe the governor? What is so secretive that you have to keep Senators in the dark? Why possibly cause mass hysteria? I can't see this being any kind of training exercise. They wouldn't do it in this manner.
Also, if the military didn't shoot them down is because someone higher up in the chain of command told whoever was in charge of that base to stand down when the request for permission to engage was made.
