US Congress doubles down on claims of illegal UFO retrieval programs
I’m not saying that I buy into these narratives, but in the interest of curiosity and for sake of argument…<p>Let’s say that there are real ET craft, and let’s say that the US government has indeed been retrieving and studying them for decades.<p>If such analysis unlocks technology breakthroughs of the kind that would solve say, energy problems, the government now has the problem of sitting on secrets that it has no legal pathway to introduce to the public, and no way to explain without somehow coming clean.<p>If any of this is real, the kind of legislation described in the article seems like one of the few ways they can start to introduce this information to the public. This makes it sound like they know what this is and they need to establish the channels and narratives to discuss it publicly (even if “this” is all a cover for misuse of funds that has nothing to do with ET craft).<p>Everyone is focused on “what is this distracting us from?”, and maybe that’s all that this is, but even if this is misdirection, there’s something going on that’s making elected officials and reputable military types speak publicly about UAPs.<p>That by itself is a pretty interesting signal if nothing else.<p>It could also all be bullshit, and either way, I’m pretty curious to see where this goes.
