00:07:57,270 --> 00:07:53,680 listening to this podcast 240 00:07:58,469 --> 00:07:57,280 i i got involved in 1996 it's been 25 241 00:08:01,510 --> 00:07:58,479 years 242 00:08:02,150 --> 00:08:01,520 um i hadn't really engaged the issue 243 00:08:03,830 --> 00:08:02,160 prior to that 244 00:08:05,749 --> 00:08:03,840 but i was fully aware of it since i was 245 00:08:08,710 --> 00:08:05,759 a kid 246 00:08:09,589 --> 00:08:08,720 in 1996 i i volunteered to work for dr 247 00:08:12,950 --> 00:08:09,599 john mack 248 00:08:15,589 --> 00:08:12,960 in cambridge massachusetts the 249 00:08:16,309 --> 00:08:15,599 harvard psychiatrist that had taken that 250 00:08:20,790 --> 00:08:16,319 incredibly 251 00:08:26,469 --> 00:08:24,790 engage contactees and and talk to them 252 00:08:28,070 --> 00:08:26,479 and even began to try to develop some 253 00:08:30,230 --> 00:08:28,080 research around that 254 00:08:31,670 --> 00:08:30,240 he set up an organization called program 255 00:08:34,709 --> 00:08:31,680 for extraordinary experience 256 00:08:35,750 --> 00:08:34,719 research and i came there as a volunteer 257 00:08:39,029 --> 00:08:35,760 just to volunteer 258 00:08:43,430 --> 00:08:39,039 help out but it was a wonderful 259 00:08:45,030 --> 00:08:43,440 experience i was there for four months 260 00:08:47,030 --> 00:08:45,040 and then i made the decision to move to 261 00:08:48,150 --> 00:08:47,040 washington dc where i have family and 262 00:08:51,190 --> 00:08:48,160 where i've lived 263 00:08:53,190 --> 00:08:51,200 off and on for years i knew it well 264 00:08:55,030 --> 00:08:53,200 and set up an organization called 265 00:08:56,630 --> 00:08:55,040 paradigm research group and registered 266 00:09:00,870 --> 00:08:56,640 as a lobbyist 267 00:09:04,389 --> 00:09:02,389 because i knew that no one had ever done 268 00:09:06,470 --> 00:09:04,399 that 269 00:09:08,470 --> 00:09:06,480 there was no lobbyists registered on the 270 00:09:11,910 --> 00:09:08,480 issue of extraterrestrial phenomena 271 00:09:13,670 --> 00:09:11,920 period and i knew that the washington 272 00:09:16,949 --> 00:09:13,680 post would almost certainly 273 00:09:18,550 --> 00:09:16,959 come calling because that's interesting 274 00:09:20,949 --> 00:09:18,560 it's a story 275 00:09:21,750 --> 00:09:20,959 what's going on so they they wasn't that 276 00:09:24,150 --> 00:09:21,760 long 277 00:09:25,990 --> 00:09:24,160 they came out and interviewed me and i 278 00:09:30,230 --> 00:09:26,000 got a 279 00:09:33,269 --> 00:09:30,240 a big article on the front page of the 280 00:09:36,870 --> 00:09:33,279 business section of the washington post 281 00:09:37,829 --> 00:09:36,880 which is a big article and that's it 282 00:09:41,190 --> 00:09:37,839 that launched 283 00:09:44,870 --> 00:09:41,200 my how would you say career as an 284 00:09:47,910 --> 00:09:44,880 activist engaging this issue 285 00:09:48,870 --> 00:09:47,920 and the rest is history why did i choose 286 00:09:52,790 --> 00:09:48,880 that route 287 00:09:55,990 --> 00:09:52,800 because i came to realize 288 00:09:57,269 --> 00:09:56,000 that all those years i've been hearing 289 00:10:00,389 --> 00:09:57,279 about the issue but yet 290 00:10:03,350 --> 00:10:00,399 there was no resolution there was 291 00:10:05,430 --> 00:10:03,360 nothing coming from the government 292 00:10:07,350 --> 00:10:05,440 was all very strange didn't make sense 293 00:10:09,750 --> 00:10:07,360 but what do you do you go on with your 294 00:10:14,150 --> 00:10:12,630 i came to realize that the reason there 295 00:10:15,829 --> 00:10:14,160 was no resolution about what this 296 00:10:17,430 --> 00:10:15,839 phenomenon was 297 00:10:19,110 --> 00:10:17,440 in spite of the fact that plenty of 298 00:10:21,829 --> 00:10:19,120 things kept turning up that were quite 299 00:10:23,350 --> 00:10:21,839 compelling was not because there wasn't 300 00:10:25,829 --> 00:10:23,360 enough scientific evidence 301 00:10:27,590 --> 00:10:25,839 it wasn't about science it hadn't been 302 00:10:31,350 --> 00:10:27,600 for a long time 303 00:10:32,949 --> 00:10:31,360 the presence of the ets was confirmed to 304 00:10:35,829 --> 00:10:32,959 the united states government no later 305 00:10:38,470 --> 00:10:35,839 than 1947. 306 00:10:41,430 --> 00:10:38,480 so what's going on what's going on was 307 00:10:44,870 --> 00:10:43,910 there was a decision to embargo this 308 00:10:47,030 --> 00:10:44,880 issue 309 00:10:49,750 --> 00:10:47,040 for national security reasons a legal 310 00:10:52,870 --> 00:10:49,760 national security policy 311 00:10:55,269 --> 00:10:52,880 enforced strongly but not 312 00:10:56,710 --> 00:10:55,279 for coning in an endocrine fashion like 313 00:10:57,910 --> 00:10:56,720 you we see in some authoritarian 314 00:11:00,230 --> 00:10:57,920 countries 315 00:11:03,190 --> 00:11:00,240 they weren't shooting people they they 316 00:11:05,350 --> 00:11:03,200 just came up with some very clever ways 317 00:11:07,190 --> 00:11:05,360 working from within the military 318 00:11:11,030 --> 00:11:07,200 intelligence complex 319 00:11:13,030 --> 00:11:11,040 to simply keep it under wraps 320 00:11:15,509 --> 00:11:13,040 a political decision and therefore the 321 00:11:19,190 --> 00:11:15,519 resolution required a political 322 00:11:21,110 --> 00:11:19,200 solution and i said okay 323 00:11:22,949 --> 00:11:21,120 i'm gonna go to washington and and try 324 00:11:26,230 --> 00:11:22,959 to resolve the et issue 325 00:11:27,829 --> 00:11:26,240 through political means and there 326 00:11:30,550 --> 00:11:27,839 weren't 327 00:11:31,269 --> 00:11:30,560 well no one no one had really formally 328 00:11:34,310 --> 00:11:31,279 done this 329 00:11:37,509 --> 00:11:34,320 there there have been efforts off and on 330 00:11:40,630 --> 00:11:37,519 uh prior to 1996 to 331 00:11:42,550 --> 00:11:40,640 sort of engage the issue politically but 332 00:11:43,990 --> 00:11:42,560 it didn't go they didn't go anywhere and 333 00:11:46,470 --> 00:11:44,000 also they weren't they weren't 334 00:11:48,150 --> 00:11:46,480 formalized too much which is why there 335 00:11:50,150 --> 00:11:48,160 was not there there wasn't a 336 00:11:51,590 --> 00:11:50,160 a registered lobbyist i then and then 337 00:11:53,190 --> 00:11:51,600 founded the first political action 338 00:11:55,350 --> 00:11:53,200 committee addressing this issue no one 339 00:11:57,509 --> 00:11:55,360 had ever done that 340 00:11:59,110 --> 00:11:57,519 and so that's how i got involved why i 341 00:12:03,110 --> 00:11:59,120 got involved in a sense 342 00:12:06,710 --> 00:12:03,120 i was lucky in that i found a niche that 343 00:12:09,670 --> 00:12:06,720 was uh essentially empty 344 00:12:10,629 --> 00:12:09,680 no one was doing it so it gave me a 345 00:12:12,150 --> 00:12:10,639 opportunity to 346 00:12:14,310 --> 00:12:12,160 make a difference even though i had very 347 00:12:17,750 --> 00:12:14,320 little resources 348 00:12:20,150 --> 00:12:17,760 and was new and now it's been 25 years 349 00:12:25,910 --> 00:12:22,829 i don't regret it and i've met a ton of 350 00:12:27,190 --> 00:12:25,920 people and i believe that the resolution 351 00:12:30,310 --> 00:12:27,200 finally 352 00:12:32,470 --> 00:12:30,320 of the extraterrestrial presence the 353 00:12:34,790 --> 00:12:32,480 confirmation 354 00:12:36,310 --> 00:12:34,800 is very close and could very easily 355 00:12:41,750 --> 00:12:36,320 happen this year 356 00:12:44,069 --> 00:12:41,760 looking forward to seeing that 357 00:12:45,190 --> 00:12:44,079 now there's a lot to fill in in 25 years 358 00:12:45,990 --> 00:12:45,200 there and we're not going to have time 359 00:12:48,710 --> 00:12:46,000 to do all of that 360 00:12:49,670 --> 00:12:48,720 talking to you right now however going 361 00:12:51,829 --> 00:12:49,680 back to 362 00:12:53,350 --> 00:12:51,839 to 1996 and you're setting up the 363 00:12:55,590 --> 00:12:53,360 paradigm research group 364 00:12:57,990 --> 00:12:55,600 you you've said already about the the et 365 00:13:01,430 --> 00:12:58,000 presence or you know the et cover up 366 00:13:04,790 --> 00:13:01,440 what was it that made you then and now 367 00:13:08,310 --> 00:13:04,800 so certain is as et and 368 00:13:11,509 --> 00:13:08,320 not anything else again the the 369 00:13:14,310 --> 00:13:11,519 evidence is overwhelming 370 00:13:16,069 --> 00:13:14,320 and the way evidence works and this is 371 00:13:18,230 --> 00:13:16,079 something of course that the 372 00:13:20,550 --> 00:13:18,240 practitioners of the embargo were never 373 00:13:23,030 --> 00:13:20,560 going to acknowledge 374 00:13:24,069 --> 00:13:23,040 uh smoking gun is another classic 375 00:13:27,269 --> 00:13:24,079 example of 376 00:13:28,389 --> 00:13:27,279 a diversion and bogus thinking that they 377 00:13:30,949 --> 00:13:28,399 encouraged 378 00:13:33,030 --> 00:13:30,959 where's the smoking gun where's the 379 00:13:35,269 --> 00:13:33,040 latrine from a spaceship give me that 380 00:13:36,710 --> 00:13:35,279 and we'll move forward it's all nonsense 381 00:13:38,629 --> 00:13:36,720 the way evidence works is i think most 382 00:13:41,990 --> 00:13:38,639 people know now 383 00:13:45,990 --> 00:13:42,000 you've got a very complex murder trial 384 00:13:48,310 --> 00:13:46,000 and you're on the jury might take weeks 385 00:13:49,269 --> 00:13:48,320 and you listen to hours and hours of 386 00:13:54,230 --> 00:13:49,279 evidence 387 00:13:57,750 --> 00:13:54,240 of all types and you reach a conclusion 388 00:13:59,269 --> 00:13:57,760 of guilty which is the key conclusion 389 00:14:03,269 --> 00:13:59,279 beyond a reasonable doubt based on all 390 00:14:05,030 --> 00:14:03,279 the evidence all of it not just one part 391 00:14:06,870 --> 00:14:05,040 it's almost impossible for a single 392 00:14:07,750 --> 00:14:06,880 piece of evidence to convict somebody in 393 00:14:09,269 --> 00:14:07,760 a court of law 394 00:14:11,030 --> 00:14:09,279 very difficult i'm not saying it's 395 00:14:14,790 --> 00:14:11,040 impossible but boy it's all 396 00:14:16,389 --> 00:14:14,800 very difficult so you spend 397 00:14:18,230 --> 00:14:16,399 hundreds of hours listening to all this 398 00:14:19,269 --> 00:14:18,240 evidence you you go into a room with 11 399 00:14:21,430 --> 00:14:19,279 other people and you 400 00:14:23,910 --> 00:14:21,440 and you all decide yes this evidence is 401 00:14:28,069 --> 00:14:23,920 absolutely beyond a reasonable doubt 402 00:14:31,350 --> 00:14:30,230 the evidence for the e.t presence would 403 00:14:36,629 --> 00:14:31,360 fill a room 404 00:14:39,189 --> 00:14:36,639 a big room a huge room it's massive 405 00:14:41,030 --> 00:14:39,199 and if you examine that evidence if you 406 00:14:42,230 --> 00:14:41,040 examine a decent portion of all that 407 00:14:44,310 --> 00:14:42,240 evidence 408 00:14:47,430 --> 00:14:44,320 it's absolutely confirming of an 409 00:14:50,230 --> 00:14:47,440 extraterrestrial presence 410 00:14:52,389 --> 00:14:50,240 now we could spend the next hour or so 411 00:14:55,269 --> 00:14:52,399 running through 412 00:14:56,790 --> 00:14:55,279 a lot of this evidence but i happen to 413 00:14:57,990 --> 00:14:56,800 believe that most of your audience 414 00:15:00,870 --> 00:14:58,000 already knows this this is 415 00:15:04,230 --> 00:15:00,880 not something shocking to them or a 416 00:15:09,110 --> 00:15:07,590 and i i have invested the time to get a 417 00:15:11,350 --> 00:15:09,120 good sense of the totality of the 418 00:15:14,470 --> 00:15:11,360 evidence for this present 419 00:15:16,150 --> 00:15:14,480 and so i'm convinced i don't believe 420 00:15:18,550 --> 00:15:16,160 the whole term believer is another 421 00:15:20,710 --> 00:15:18,560 language issue believer is a term the 422 00:15:23,670 --> 00:15:20,720 truth embargo loved 423 00:15:23,990 --> 00:15:23,680 you're a believer encouraged it turns up 424 00:15:28,389 --> 00:15:24,000 in 425 00:15:31,110 --> 00:15:28,399 believer it's nonsense 426 00:15:31,670 --> 00:15:31,120 that's like saying an atomic physicist 427 00:15:35,110 --> 00:15:31,680 who 428 00:15:36,389 --> 00:15:35,120 is dealing with the atom believes in 429 00:15:40,949 --> 00:15:36,399 atoms 430 00:15:43,590 --> 00:15:40,959 it's absolutely ridiculous so 431 00:15:47,430 --> 00:15:43,600 the answer to your question is if the 432 00:15:54,110 --> 00:15:51,590 the and this is tough 433 00:15:55,590 --> 00:15:54,120 you know this is tough everybody if 434 00:15:59,030 --> 00:15:55,600 extraterrestrials 435 00:16:01,509 --> 00:15:59,040 were to hover over our major cities with 436 00:16:06,710 --> 00:16:01,519 massive craft 437 00:16:10,949 --> 00:16:08,790 pretty much though one could then say 438 00:16:12,550 --> 00:16:10,959 wait a minute no no no no these craft 439 00:16:14,230 --> 00:16:12,560 have been hidden inside the earth all 440 00:16:15,829 --> 00:16:14,240 these years these people are 441 00:16:17,829 --> 00:16:15,839 subterranean dwellers have been down 442 00:16:19,509 --> 00:16:17,839 there building fantastic technology and 443 00:16:22,550 --> 00:16:19,519 now they've just come out of the earth 444 00:16:24,550 --> 00:16:22,560 whatever but i very few people 445 00:16:25,910 --> 00:16:24,560 would not go that that's it that's 446 00:16:28,389 --> 00:16:25,920 confirming 447 00:16:29,269 --> 00:16:28,399 all right and that's like saying for a 448 00:16:34,949 --> 00:16:29,279 murder 449 00:16:38,949 --> 00:16:36,550 that person has got to bring in the 450 00:16:40,949 --> 00:16:38,959 victim 451 00:16:42,150 --> 00:16:40,959 or bring somebody into the courtroom and 452 00:16:43,430 --> 00:16:42,160 shoot them right there in front of the 453 00:16:46,069 --> 00:16:43,440 jury 454 00:16:46,949 --> 00:16:46,079 then you can convict them so so that so 455 00:16:55,430 --> 00:16:46,959 the 456 00:16:58,870 --> 00:16:55,440 twisted and distorted 457 00:17:00,710 --> 00:16:58,880 but this is not unusual when governments 458 00:17:02,870 --> 00:17:00,720 decide to 459 00:17:04,710 --> 00:17:02,880 undermine the truth and embark on 460 00:17:06,630 --> 00:17:04,720 massive information disinformation and 461 00:17:09,669 --> 00:17:06,640 propaganda campaigns 462 00:17:13,110 --> 00:17:09,679 they can put the citizens of a country 463 00:17:15,110 --> 00:17:13,120 into an absolute detached a state 464 00:17:18,549 --> 00:17:15,120 detached from reality 465 00:17:21,669 --> 00:17:18,559 this is what they do thus you 466 00:17:22,230 --> 00:17:21,679 and that when they do that you get north 467 00:17:24,309 --> 00:17:22,240 korea 468 00:17:25,669 --> 00:17:24,319 that's probably one of the worst cases 469 00:17:27,909 --> 00:17:25,679 north korea 470 00:17:29,430 --> 00:17:27,919 is one of the worst cases in all of 471 00:17:33,510 --> 00:17:29,440 human history 472 00:17:37,350 --> 00:17:33,520 on the manipulation containment 473 00:17:39,029 --> 00:17:37,360 of truth in order to create a completely 474 00:17:41,029 --> 00:17:39,039 detached from reality 475 00:17:43,590 --> 00:17:41,039 uh a set of human beings the north 476 00:17:44,870 --> 00:17:43,600 korean people it's terrible 477 00:17:46,870 --> 00:17:44,880 that's the extreme case the united 478 00:17:48,870 --> 00:17:46,880 states has done this too japan has done 479 00:17:51,750 --> 00:17:48,880 it germany's done it uk has done it 480 00:17:53,029 --> 00:17:51,760 this is what government can do people 481 00:17:54,950 --> 00:17:53,039 citizens of these nations 482 00:17:57,270 --> 00:17:54,960 need to take the necessary measures to 483 00:18:00,070 --> 00:17:57,280 stop that 484 00:18:02,549 --> 00:18:00,080 we need to develop a world in which the 485 00:18:05,270 --> 00:18:02,559 governments of nations do not embark on 486 00:18:06,470 --> 00:18:05,280 on disinformation and propaganda 487 00:18:08,630 --> 00:18:06,480 campaigns 488 00:18:09,750 --> 00:18:08,640 to detach their citizens from reality 489 00:18:13,590 --> 00:18:09,760 this never 490 00:18:15,750 --> 00:18:13,600 ends well it doesn't end well 491 00:18:17,430 --> 00:18:15,760 but until we do that we'll have to put 492 00:18:20,230 --> 00:18:17,440 up with it in the united states 493 00:18:21,990 --> 00:18:20,240 the leading example of this is the truth 494 00:18:24,070 --> 00:18:22,000 embargo on the extraterrestrial presence 495 00:18:28,390 --> 00:18:24,080 now in its 70 496 00:18:31,990 --> 00:18:28,400 least 74th year 497 00:18:36,150 --> 00:18:32,000 and so in that context 498 00:18:39,270 --> 00:18:36,160 what's the answer to your question um 499 00:18:46,070 --> 00:18:42,470 give a just a layperson 500 00:18:49,669 --> 00:18:46,080 one book that 501 00:18:52,789 --> 00:18:49,679 if they were to read with 502 00:18:56,230 --> 00:18:52,799 a certain amount of detachment and 503 00:18:58,310 --> 00:18:56,240 open-mindedness that 504 00:18:59,990 --> 00:18:58,320 again it's for a layperson it's not for 505 00:19:01,909 --> 00:19:00,000 a scientist 506 00:19:03,350 --> 00:19:01,919 it would be witness to roswell 507 00:19:06,390 --> 00:19:03,360 particularly expended 508 00:19:06,789 --> 00:19:06,400 expanded aversion the witness to roswell 509 00:19:09,990 --> 00:19:06,799 by 510 00:19:14,310 --> 00:19:10,000 don schmidt and thomas carey 511 00:19:17,590 --> 00:19:14,320 which they essentially bring to bear 512 00:19:19,190 --> 00:19:17,600 the the bulk of the enormous 513 00:19:21,909 --> 00:19:19,200 amount of witness testimony that they 514 00:19:27,990 --> 00:19:25,669 i think as many 600 witnesses were 515 00:19:29,350 --> 00:19:28,000 ultimately uh interviewed at one time or 516 00:19:33,590 --> 00:19:29,360 another by researchers regarding the 517 00:19:38,630 --> 00:19:37,350 they i know interviewed a couple hundred 518 00:19:40,950 --> 00:19:38,640 and they put this into the book the 519 00:19:43,110 --> 00:19:40,960 witness to roswell 520 00:19:45,590 --> 00:19:43,120 and i just do not believe that any 521 00:19:49,190 --> 00:19:45,600 reasonably intelligent person 522 00:19:53,190 --> 00:19:49,200 can read that book and at the end of it 523 00:19:56,470 --> 00:19:53,200 conclude i still don't know 524 00:19:59,830 --> 00:19:56,480 if there are extraterrestrials 525 00:20:01,830 --> 00:19:59,840 i don't know can't be sure 526 00:20:03,270 --> 00:20:01,840 i just think they have to conclude but 527 00:20:05,029 --> 00:20:03,280 it's obvious 528 00:20:06,390 --> 00:20:05,039 and that there were extraterrestrial 529 00:20:10,789 --> 00:20:06,400 beings 530 00:20:14,470 --> 00:20:10,799 that were involved in the roswell crash 531 00:20:15,830 --> 00:20:14,480 some were dead one was alive 532 00:20:17,750 --> 00:20:15,840 and at that point the government of 533 00:20:20,630 --> 00:20:17,760 course knew the obvious 534 00:20:23,350 --> 00:20:20,640 that we aren't alone and then the the 535 00:20:24,870 --> 00:20:23,360 truth embargo the embargo of that 536 00:20:26,470 --> 00:20:24,880 which was more like a cover-up at the 537 00:20:30,549 --> 00:20:26,480 time at that point but still 538 00:20:32,390 --> 00:20:30,559 embargo began so that would be my answer 539 00:20:33,590 --> 00:20:32,400 read the witness to roswell expanded 540 00:20:36,710 --> 00:20:33,600 edition 541 00:20:37,990 --> 00:20:36,720 and then just sit quietly and think is 542 00:20:41,110 --> 00:20:38,000 there another explanation 543 00:20:43,190 --> 00:20:41,120 for what these hundreds of people saw 544 00:20:44,789 --> 00:20:43,200 no i will come back to a question i've 545 00:20:47,270 --> 00:20:44,799 got on that but um 546 00:20:49,029 --> 00:20:47,280 that is very interesting let me ask and 547 00:20:50,710 --> 00:20:49,039 you're talking about something that i've 548 00:20:52,549 --> 00:20:50,720 mentioned a few times on the podcast 549 00:20:53,669 --> 00:20:52,559 that i feel when it comes to this topic 550 00:20:55,750 --> 00:20:53,679 or subject 551 00:20:57,669 --> 00:20:55,760 that it's not just one there's not going 552 00:20:59,270 --> 00:20:57,679 to be that smoking gun like you say that 553 00:21:01,430 --> 00:20:59,280 that terminology that's always out there 554 00:21:02,870 --> 00:21:01,440 that one piece of evidence doesn't exist 555 00:21:05,190 --> 00:21:02,880 and won't exist but 556 00:21:07,510 --> 00:21:05,200 there's a folder that is packed with 557 00:21:09,750 --> 00:21:07,520 testimony and witness accounts and 558 00:21:11,990 --> 00:21:09,760 experiences and you know all of that 559 00:21:13,430 --> 00:21:12,000 stuff do you remember a time where you 560 00:21:15,190 --> 00:21:13,440 first saw 561 00:21:17,110 --> 00:21:15,200 an investigation and you've seen 562 00:21:19,029 --> 00:21:17,120 multiple pieces of evidence and read 563 00:21:19,430 --> 00:21:19,039 multiple texts where you saw something 564 00:21:26,870 --> 00:21:19,440 that 565 00:21:31,190 --> 00:21:26,880 process of of taking an information 566 00:21:33,350 --> 00:21:31,200 oh it's worse than that i i did 567 00:21:34,710 --> 00:21:33,360 i didn't have that moment i knew there 568 00:21:37,110 --> 00:21:34,720 was extraterrestrials here when i was a 569 00:21:41,750 --> 00:21:37,120 teenager 570 00:21:50,549 --> 00:21:45,510 the way the way propaganda 571 00:21:53,430 --> 00:21:50,559 works the way lies work 572 00:21:53,990 --> 00:21:53,440 are repeating them over and over and 573 00:22:01,029 --> 00:21:54,000 over 574 00:22:02,870 --> 00:22:01,039 until people just go well it's got to be 575 00:22:06,470 --> 00:22:02,880 true 576 00:22:08,789 --> 00:22:06,480 it's a just it's a field distortion 577 00:22:10,870 --> 00:22:08,799 reality gets turned upside down okay 578 00:22:14,950 --> 00:22:10,880 that's how it works 579 00:22:17,510 --> 00:22:14,960 but in the early days uh 580 00:22:19,430 --> 00:22:17,520 so i'm a kid let's say let's take me up 581 00:22:24,830 --> 00:22:19,440 to being about 15 years 16 years old so 582 00:22:29,190 --> 00:22:26,149 uh 583 00:22:32,710 --> 00:22:29,200 and the early days 584 00:22:34,630 --> 00:22:32,720 it the truth embargo was certainly 585 00:22:38,149 --> 00:22:34,640 underway 586 00:22:41,110 --> 00:22:38,159 but it hadn't achieved its full glory 587 00:22:42,870 --> 00:22:41,120 so so what was happening back in those 588 00:22:44,549 --> 00:22:42,880 days in the 50s and 60s was 589 00:22:47,590 --> 00:22:44,559 that that things were happening and 590 00:22:49,590 --> 00:22:47,600 they'd be there'd be an article about it 591 00:22:50,789 --> 00:22:49,600 paper would write something up and so 592 00:22:56,070 --> 00:22:50,799 forth 593 00:22:58,230 --> 00:22:56,080 um and i was i was seeing these 594 00:22:59,510 --> 00:22:58,240 i was seeing these articles about this 595 00:23:02,549 --> 00:22:59,520 or article about that 596 00:23:06,310 --> 00:23:02,559 i read the look magazine article 597 00:23:08,789 --> 00:23:06,320 about betty and barney hill 598 00:23:10,549 --> 00:23:08,799 which is basically a a write-up of that 599 00:23:13,190 --> 00:23:10,559 case it wasn't a 600 00:23:14,310 --> 00:23:13,200 propaganda piece it was a write-up 601 00:23:17,350 --> 00:23:14,320 because back then 602 00:23:19,590 --> 00:23:17,360 if something was kind of in the news uh 603 00:23:21,110 --> 00:23:19,600 and you were a magazine or a newspaper 604 00:23:25,430 --> 00:23:21,120 of quality 605 00:23:28,470 --> 00:23:25,440 you could write it up and i read that 606 00:23:30,390 --> 00:23:28,480 and i went well clearly 607 00:23:32,870 --> 00:23:30,400 this was an extraterrestrial encounter 608 00:23:37,270 --> 00:23:32,880 by betty and barney hill 609 00:23:40,230 --> 00:23:37,280 i had no i had no uh bias 610 00:23:41,510 --> 00:23:40,240 i had no stake in that i was simply a 611 00:23:44,789 --> 00:23:41,520 citizen 612 00:23:45,510 --> 00:23:44,799 now a teenager reading this article this 613 00:23:48,789 --> 00:23:45,520 extraordinary 614 00:23:50,390 --> 00:23:48,799 barney hill 615 00:23:52,149 --> 00:23:50,400 and at that point i said well clearly 616 00:23:53,750 --> 00:23:52,159 that's what it is 617 00:23:56,230 --> 00:23:53,760 and then i would i would read another 618 00:23:57,430 --> 00:23:56,240 about this a citing event or what have 619 00:24:00,070 --> 00:23:57,440 you 620 00:24:02,630 --> 00:24:00,080 and simply as an unbiased person 621 00:24:06,630 --> 00:24:02,640 relatively intelligence reading this 622 00:24:09,750 --> 00:24:06,640 it was clear that the proper explanation 623 00:24:13,269 --> 00:24:09,760 was extraterrestrial 624 00:24:18,310 --> 00:24:13,279 now why am i why am i saying this 625 00:24:22,149 --> 00:24:18,320 look not everything has to go through 626 00:24:25,029 --> 00:24:22,159 ten thousand peer review papers 627 00:24:26,789 --> 00:24:25,039 all right and and the vast scientific 628 00:24:31,269 --> 00:24:26,799 rigor 629 00:24:33,669 --> 00:24:31,279 in order to arrive at a quote conclusion 630 00:24:35,269 --> 00:24:33,679 not everything has to have a 10-week 631 00:24:37,990 --> 00:24:35,279 trial 632 00:24:39,190 --> 00:24:38,000 to arrive at a conclusion those things 633 00:24:43,990 --> 00:24:39,200 are 634 00:24:46,230 --> 00:24:44,000 importance of science 635 00:24:47,510 --> 00:24:46,240 getting things right so you can move on 636 00:24:49,909 --> 00:24:47,520 to 637 00:24:52,950 --> 00:24:49,919 other phenomena or build on that 638 00:24:57,190 --> 00:24:52,960 information base is extremely 639 00:25:00,310 --> 00:24:57,200 significant for society 640 00:25:02,390 --> 00:25:00,320 and the importance of getting 641 00:25:04,710 --> 00:25:02,400 uh it right when somebody is on trial 642 00:25:06,950 --> 00:25:04,720 for murder 643 00:25:08,390 --> 00:25:06,960 is obviously significant which is why 644 00:25:12,870 --> 00:25:08,400 beyond a reasonable doubt 645 00:25:16,310 --> 00:25:12,880 is there and many many murders 646 00:25:17,190 --> 00:25:16,320 are acquitted that's our but that's all 647 00:25:18,950 --> 00:25:17,200 right 648 00:25:21,750 --> 00:25:18,960 that's these are criteria we use in our 649 00:25:24,870 --> 00:25:21,760 society for valid reasons 650 00:25:26,950 --> 00:25:24,880 that doesn't mean that 651 00:25:30,630 --> 00:25:26,960 all of that has to take place in order 652 00:25:34,149 --> 00:25:30,640 to arrive at a pretty solid conclusion 653 00:25:35,110 --> 00:25:34,159 so in my teens it was self-evident for 654 00:25:38,070 --> 00:25:35,120 me 655 00:25:40,070 --> 00:25:38,080 that this was extraterrestrial and i was 656 00:25:41,350 --> 00:25:40,080 dying to learn more and i think well one 657 00:25:43,269 --> 00:25:41,360 day we're going to learn more about that 658 00:25:46,230 --> 00:25:43,279 that's going to be cool what's going on 659 00:25:47,750 --> 00:25:46,240 and then i went about being a teenager 660 00:25:49,110 --> 00:25:47,760 and then going to college and living my 661 00:25:51,590 --> 00:25:49,120 life 662 00:25:53,190 --> 00:25:51,600 so i didn't need to see some profound 663 00:25:56,070 --> 00:25:53,200 piece of evidence later on 664 00:25:57,430 --> 00:25:56,080 i already knew and why do i when i say 665 00:26:01,029 --> 00:25:57,440 new 666 00:26:04,950 --> 00:26:01,039 status in other words my 667 00:26:08,149 --> 00:26:04,960 my intellect to whatever it was 668 00:26:09,750 --> 00:26:08,159 without any particular bias was 669 00:26:11,510 --> 00:26:09,760 pretty satisfied that that was the 670 00:26:14,549 --> 00:26:11,520 explanation now why 671 00:26:17,590 --> 00:26:14,559 why am i pointing this out 672 00:26:21,190 --> 00:26:17,600 because millions 673 00:26:24,710 --> 00:26:21,200 and millions and millions of people 674 00:26:25,990 --> 00:26:24,720 felt the same way even in the 50s and 675 00:26:29,350 --> 00:26:26,000 the 60s 676 00:26:32,950 --> 00:26:29,360 they they they they got it but again 677 00:26:35,510 --> 00:26:32,960 it was like what what can you do i mean 678 00:26:38,310 --> 00:26:35,520 you will eventually learn more the 679 00:26:40,070 --> 00:26:38,320 government will clearly 680 00:26:41,590 --> 00:26:40,080 the government's clearly looking into 681 00:26:43,110 --> 00:26:41,600 this of course 682 00:26:44,870 --> 00:26:43,120 and they're studying it and then they're 683 00:26:48,310 --> 00:26:44,880 going to be able to provide us 684 00:26:51,430 --> 00:26:48,320 hard information about what's going on 685 00:26:58,149 --> 00:26:56,070 and when i went to college in 1964 686 00:27:00,870 --> 00:26:58,159 i arrived as the vietnam war was taking 687 00:27:04,549 --> 00:27:03,269 and then that was another kind of 688 00:27:07,430 --> 00:27:04,559 interesting moment for me 689 00:27:09,430 --> 00:27:07,440 as the vietnam war took off in college 690 00:27:10,950 --> 00:27:09,440 with each passing month i began to be 691 00:27:12,630 --> 00:27:10,960 deeply suspicious 692 00:27:15,350 --> 00:27:12,640 that what the government was saying 693 00:27:16,870 --> 00:27:15,360 about that war wasn't true 694 00:27:18,630 --> 00:27:16,880 it wasn't there wasn't much i could do 695 00:27:21,590 --> 00:27:18,640 about that 696 00:27:24,070 --> 00:27:21,600 years later i would learn that it 697 00:27:25,430 --> 00:27:24,080 absolutely wasn't true 698 00:27:27,990 --> 00:27:25,440 that the government had used lies and 699 00:27:30,149 --> 00:27:28,000 propaganda in order to convince the 700 00:27:31,669 --> 00:27:30,159 people 701 00:27:34,389 --> 00:27:31,679 to support something they should never 702 00:27:37,590 --> 00:27:34,399 have supported 703 00:27:38,950 --> 00:27:37,600 and perhaps it then it began to dawn on 704 00:27:43,669 --> 00:27:38,960 me 705 00:27:45,909 --> 00:27:43,679 about a war 706 00:27:47,990 --> 00:27:45,919 that's killing hundreds of thousands of 707 00:27:50,630 --> 00:27:48,000 people and tens of thousands of american 708 00:27:53,110 --> 00:27:50,640 soldiers the u.s government is capable 709 00:27:56,789 --> 00:27:53,120 of lying about anything 710 00:27:59,269 --> 00:27:56,799 and so as time went by 711 00:28:00,149 --> 00:27:59,279 i think in the back of my mind at least 712 00:28:01,430 --> 00:28:00,159 when nothing 713 00:28:03,590 --> 00:28:01,440 was getting resolved about this 714 00:28:08,230 --> 00:28:03,600 phenomena 715 00:28:12,310 --> 00:28:08,240 that very likely the fix was in 716 00:28:16,310 --> 00:28:14,830 as we go forward and i get into the 717 00:28:17,669 --> 00:28:16,320 field 718 00:28:19,750 --> 00:28:17,679 i'm all i already know there's an 719 00:28:22,310 --> 00:28:19,760 extraterrestrial presence 720 00:28:23,110 --> 00:28:22,320 so nothing i'm going to see or read is 721 00:28:25,590 --> 00:28:23,120 going to go 722 00:28:26,789 --> 00:28:25,600 oh wow bang there's an extraterrestrial 723 00:28:33,830 --> 00:28:26,799 now 724 00:28:35,269 --> 00:28:33,840 so and 725 00:28:36,710 --> 00:28:35,279 for most people that's not the way it is 726 00:28:38,549 --> 00:28:36,720 most people are not paying attention 727 00:28:41,750 --> 00:28:38,559 just for your average person 728 00:28:42,389 --> 00:28:41,760 and so you could ask them right someone 729 00:28:44,710 --> 00:28:42,399 who has 730 00:28:45,430 --> 00:28:44,720 no idea about this never really thought 731 00:28:47,750 --> 00:28:45,440 about it much 732 00:28:50,230 --> 00:28:47,760 what what when they finally figure it 733 00:28:51,830 --> 00:28:50,240 out and they all will 734 00:28:53,350 --> 00:28:51,840 what was it that brought you there but 735 00:28:55,830 --> 00:28:53,360 i'll tell you 736 00:28:57,350 --> 00:28:55,840 for a significant portion of the human 737 00:28:59,750 --> 00:28:57,360 race 738 00:29:01,590 --> 00:28:59,760 the moment where they have that light 739 00:29:04,870 --> 00:29:01,600 bulb go off 740 00:29:06,630 --> 00:29:04,880 in their head that says oh 741 00:29:08,310 --> 00:29:06,640 we're not alone in the universe there's 742 00:29:09,909 --> 00:29:08,320 other civilizations there and they're 743 00:29:12,630 --> 00:29:09,919 actually engaging us 744 00:29:13,590 --> 00:29:12,640 will be disclosure day it will be the 745 00:29:15,350 --> 00:29:13,600 day 746 00:29:17,190 --> 00:29:15,360 that the heads of state starting 747 00:29:20,230 --> 00:29:17,200 hopefully with 748 00:29:20,950 --> 00:29:20,240 probably with our president it goes in 749 00:29:22,149 --> 00:29:20,960 front of the world 750 00:29:23,590 --> 00:29:22,159 goes in front of the public goes in 751 00:29:25,190 --> 00:29:23,600 front of a microphone and confirms the 752 00:29:27,750 --> 00:29:25,200 extraterrestrial presence that'll be it 753 00:29:29,750 --> 00:29:27,760 for them that would be wow 754 00:29:31,990 --> 00:29:29,760 all right hello steve that's my answer 755 00:29:33,510 --> 00:29:32,000 uh no that's a good answer listen it's 756 00:29:35,350 --> 00:29:33,520 just lovely listening to your talk as 757 00:29:37,269 --> 00:29:35,360 well i'm going to come to that in just a 758 00:29:38,549 --> 00:29:37,279 second about disclosure with a small d 759 00:29:40,470 --> 00:29:38,559 and a capital d 760 00:29:42,149 --> 00:29:40,480 just before i do i want to talk to you 761 00:29:44,310 --> 00:29:42,159 about someone else who 762 00:29:46,149 --> 00:29:44,320 um very much seems to be someone in the 763 00:29:47,350 --> 00:29:46,159 know or has always been talked about 764 00:29:49,909 --> 00:29:47,360 someone in the know 765 00:29:51,510 --> 00:29:49,919 and i heard you about four years ago um 766 00:29:52,149 --> 00:29:51,520 donald trump had just won the election 767 00:29:54,470 --> 00:29:52,159 in the us 768 00:29:56,710 --> 00:29:54,480 barack obama was the outgoing president 769 00:29:58,870 --> 00:29:56,720 and hillary clinton of course famously 770 00:30:00,630 --> 00:29:58,880 lost that election um now you were 771 00:30:01,750 --> 00:30:00,640 talking about hillary had the chance to 772 00:30:03,990 --> 00:30:01,760 play the the et 773 00:30:05,590 --> 00:30:04,000 card to her advantage and she could have 774 00:30:07,029 --> 00:30:05,600 blown the election wide open but 775 00:30:10,149 --> 00:30:07,039 obviously we know in hindsight 776 00:30:13,350 --> 00:30:10,159 she didn't do you feel now had 777 00:30:15,110 --> 00:30:13,360 hillary won that presidency that we 778 00:30:16,230 --> 00:30:15,120 would be in a different landscape when 779 00:30:19,430 --> 00:30:16,240 it comes to 780 00:30:22,070 --> 00:30:19,440 a potential e.t presence we would have 781 00:30:23,350 --> 00:30:22,080 had disclosure three years ago 782 00:30:26,070 --> 00:30:23,360 we'd be three years into the 783 00:30:27,590 --> 00:30:26,080 post-disclosure world 784 00:30:29,269 --> 00:30:27,600 and the last three years would have been 785 00:30:33,430 --> 00:30:29,279 a hell of a lot more 786 00:30:37,350 --> 00:30:35,590 uh how can i say how do you see that 787 00:30:39,350 --> 00:30:37,360 would have played out though how do you 788 00:30:41,110 --> 00:30:39,360 as a president how does hillary clinton 789 00:30:43,830 --> 00:30:41,120 as the president 790 00:30:45,190 --> 00:30:43,840 introduce that she's gonna it's gonna it 791 00:30:47,110 --> 00:30:45,200 would have happened under her exactly 792 00:30:50,549 --> 00:30:47,120 the way it's happening under 793 00:30:54,389 --> 00:30:50,559 biden um 794 00:30:58,389 --> 00:30:54,399 history is is tough history 795 00:31:00,870 --> 00:30:58,399 is like an ocean sometimes it's a calm 796 00:31:08,789 --> 00:31:04,070 light breeze very calm and whatever boat 797 00:31:11,830 --> 00:31:10,389 generally they get they can get where 798 00:31:13,990 --> 00:31:11,840 they're going 799 00:31:15,669 --> 00:31:14,000 so they want to go from here to there 800 00:31:16,389 --> 00:31:15,679 from this island to that island they set 801 00:31:19,909 --> 00:31:16,399 off 802 00:31:21,110 --> 00:31:19,919 and they get there on the other hand 803 00:31:23,029 --> 00:31:21,120 history can become 804 00:31:25,029 --> 00:31:23,039 like that the c can become quite 805 00:31:29,190 --> 00:31:25,039 difficult 806 00:31:31,830 --> 00:31:29,200 that c can make it almost impossible to 807 00:31:33,750 --> 00:31:31,840 to maintain a proper heading take you 808 00:31:35,350 --> 00:31:33,760 completely off course 809 00:31:37,029 --> 00:31:35,360 strip your sails and leave you in the 810 00:31:38,789 --> 00:31:37,039 middle of the ocean 811 00:31:41,430 --> 00:31:38,799 unable to move forward at all or just 812 00:31:43,909 --> 00:31:41,440 capsize you and sink your boat 813 00:31:45,430 --> 00:31:43,919 that's history so when you get involved 814 00:31:47,830 --> 00:31:45,440 in history 815 00:31:48,870 --> 00:31:47,840 not just existing living moving from day 816 00:31:50,310 --> 00:31:48,880 to day doing your life 817 00:31:51,830 --> 00:31:50,320 but when you get involved in history 818 00:31:53,110 --> 00:31:51,840 when you get involved in things that are 819 00:31:57,190 --> 00:31:53,120 operating at the level 820 00:32:00,789 --> 00:31:57,200 of significant historical implications 821 00:32:04,149 --> 00:32:00,799 then you are now sailing on that sea 822 00:32:07,029 --> 00:32:04,159 and boy it can change uh 823 00:32:08,389 --> 00:32:07,039 it can change in a moment one minute 824 00:32:09,669 --> 00:32:08,399 things are fine 825 00:32:11,590 --> 00:32:09,679 two hours later you're in the middle of 826 00:32:13,269 --> 00:32:11,600 a squall you've got you've got waves 10 827 00:32:15,830 --> 00:32:13,279 feet high 828 00:32:16,789 --> 00:32:15,840 this has happened many times it is a 829 00:32:19,190 --> 00:32:16,799 tough road 830 00:32:21,669 --> 00:32:19,200 that's why it's an awful lot of sailors 831 00:32:30,950 --> 00:32:21,679 at the bottom of the ocean 832 00:32:37,830 --> 00:32:34,070 i was able to successfully 833 00:32:42,549 --> 00:32:37,840 get the media 834 00:32:45,430 --> 00:32:42,559 to take up the rather important story 835 00:32:45,990 --> 00:32:45,440 of the connection between secretary 836 00:32:53,350 --> 00:32:46,000 clinton 837 00:32:56,070 --> 00:32:53,360 her campaign

a 844 00:33:09,990 --> 00:33:07,840 little help 845 00:33:11,269 --> 00:33:10,000 i was able to from washington able to 846 00:33:13,269 --> 00:33:11,279 generate 847 00:33:14,630 --> 00:33:13,279 the storyline about the connection 848 00:33:18,230 --> 00:33:14,640 between this 849 00:33:18,789 --> 00:33:18,240 candidate who was long favored favored 850 00:33:22,310 --> 00:33:18,799 to be 851 00:33:23,909 --> 00:33:22,320 president and the fact that there was 852 00:33:25,190 --> 00:33:23,919 this substantial historical connection 853 00:33:26,870 --> 00:33:25,200 to the e.t issue and they started 854 00:33:29,269 --> 00:33:26,880 writing stories 855 00:33:30,950 --> 00:33:29,279 uh they started contacting her and 856 00:33:33,110 --> 00:33:30,960 podesta 857 00:33:34,070 --> 00:33:33,120 uh about these stories about for 858 00:33:36,070 --> 00:33:34,080 commenting and 859 00:33:37,509 --> 00:33:36,080 and they weren't getting a response this 860 00:33:38,789 --> 00:33:37,519 forced their hand and they started 861 00:33:42,230 --> 00:33:38,799 coming forward 862 00:33:42,870 --> 00:33:42,240 limited way podesta made statements she 863 00:33:46,070 --> 00:33:42,880 went on 864 00:33:47,830 --> 00:33:46,080 shows brought up the uap issue and many 865 00:33:49,190 --> 00:33:47,840 other things about 11 times during the 866 00:33:50,310 --> 00:33:49,200 campaign never happened before in 867 00:33:52,470 --> 00:33:50,320 history 868 00:33:54,789 --> 00:33:52,480 and it was a huge story 400 articles at 869 00:33:56,549 --> 00:33:54,799 least that's just english language 870 00:33:58,630 --> 00:33:56,559 probably many hundreds more foreign 871 00:34:03,190 --> 00:33:58,640 language all about 872 00:34:08,550 --> 00:34:03,200 et's and secretary clinton so 873 00:34:11,990 --> 00:34:08,560 that clearly uh going to be 874 00:34:14,790 --> 00:34:12,000 followed up on if she won the election 875 00:34:16,470 --> 00:34:14,800 in other words not just her historical 876 00:34:17,510 --> 00:34:16,480 connection to the issue and her husbands 877 00:34:19,190 --> 00:34:17,520 and podestas 878 00:34:20,869 --> 00:34:19,200 but also everything she said during the 879 00:34:22,629 --> 00:34:20,879 campaign so it was totally successful 880 00:34:24,230 --> 00:34:22,639 effort out of washington dc very few 881 00:34:28,310 --> 00:34:24,240 people know about this 882 00:34:29,190 --> 00:34:28,320 um uh but i know and my public relations 883 00:34:31,669 --> 00:34:29,200 person knows 884 00:34:34,149 --> 00:34:31,679 maybe one day it'll get told so 885 00:34:36,790 --> 00:34:34,159 everything is going fine 886 00:34:38,470 --> 00:34:36,800 and one of the reasons it was it was 887 00:34:41,589 --> 00:34:38,480 going fine 888 00:34:43,669 --> 00:34:41,599 is because i'm convinced that secretary 889 00:34:46,389 --> 00:34:43,679 clinton fully intended to end the truth 890 00:34:52,389 --> 00:34:49,829 in order to seek justice 891 00:34:53,109 --> 00:34:52,399 for the fact that her husband tried to 892 00:34:56,790 --> 00:34:53,119 get 893 00:34:58,790 --> 00:34:56,800 was stonewalled by his own government 894 00:34:59,990 --> 00:34:58,800 and attacked i mean he was attacked and 895 00:35:02,230 --> 00:35:00,000 belittled his 896 00:35:04,550 --> 00:35:02,240 political capital was undermined i mean 897 00:35:06,870 --> 00:35:04,560 he was he was raked over the cold 898 00:35:08,470 --> 00:35:06,880 partially because of the e.t issue and 899 00:35:10,230 --> 00:35:08,480 it made her pretty mad when she left she 900 00:35:13,270 --> 00:35:10,240 was a very angry woman 901 00:35:14,470 --> 00:35:13,280 and so she was now going to get that 902 00:35:15,430 --> 00:35:14,480 legacy she was going to be the first 903 00:35:18,790 --> 00:35:15,440 woman president 904 00:35:19,190 --> 00:35:18,800 and the president who forced a bunch of 905 00:35:22,710 --> 00:35:19,200 men 906 00:35:26,390 --> 00:35:22,720 over at the pentagon to put up or be 907 00:35:28,230 --> 00:35:26,400 be gone deliver or you're gone 908 00:35:29,750 --> 00:35:28,240 your replacements deliver or they're 909 00:35:32,550 --> 00:35:29,760 gone 910 00:35:34,150 --> 00:35:32,560 so this her historical legacy is 911 00:35:35,109 --> 00:35:34,160 literally laying out before her it's 912 00:35:39,990 --> 00:35:35,119 going to be 913 00:35:43,030 --> 00:35:40,000 huge so all good and then history 914 00:35:45,910 --> 00:35:43,040 that that ocean ocean squall 915 00:35:48,870 --> 00:35:45,920 turned up and very soon the waves were 916 00:35:53,030 --> 00:35:51,109 wikileaks release there were two 917 00:35:54,950 --> 00:35:53,040 wikileaks releases both of them damaged 918 00:35:57,190 -->

00:36:00,640 campaign 922 00:36:08,230 --> 00:36:04,000 very upsetting and 923 00:36:12,470 --> 00:36:11,030 if she had and and everything changes 924 00:36:15,030 --> 00:36:12,480 and in other words 925 00:36:16,230 --> 00:36:15,040 she's lost the election my boats 926 00:36:20,390 --> 00:36:16,240 capsized 927 00:36:21,349 --> 00:36:20,400 we're upside down in the water sitting 928 00:36:24,310

president to take 932 00:36:35,670 --> 00:36:33,670 and when that president took over the 933 00:36:39,190 --> 00:36:35,680 storm came back 934 00:36:41,750 --> 00:36:39,200 and raged for four solid

--> 00:40:58,240 how do we get it how how do we get to a 1046 00:41:01,349 --> 00:40:59,040 place where 1047 00:41:03,670 --> 00:41:01,359 the president of any country can 1048 00:41:05,589 --> 00:41:03,680 actually do that 1049 00:41:07,510 --> 00:41:05,599 and that has been the disclosure 1050 00:41:08,950 --> 00:41:07,520 activist movement 1051 00:41:10,870 --> 00:41:08,960 right which is what i am i'm a 1052 00:41:14,790 --> 00:41:10,880 disclosure activist 1053 00:41:19,109 --> 00:41:17,829 or just a political activist trying to 1054 00:41:23,270 --> 00:41:19,119 get the government 1055 00:41:26,870 --> 00:41:23,280 to do something in fact all activism 1056 00:41:29,430 --> 00:41:26,880 i'm not aware of there aren't many 1057 00:41:30,870 --> 00:41:29,440 examples uh that that refute this but 1058 00:41:33,750 --> 00:41:30,880 i'm sure that there are a few 1059 00:41:34,790 --> 00:41:33,760 you can find a couple but the vast 1060 00:41:38,550 --> 00:41:34,800 majority of all 1061 00:41:41,750 --> 00:41:38,560 activism even at the local state 1062 00:41:44,950 --> 00:41:41,760 federal level global level 1063 00:41:46,309 --> 00:41:44,960 is they have one thing in common the 1064 00:41:53,109 --> 00:41:46,319 people 1065 00:41:56,950 --> 00:41:53,119 authority formal authority 1066 00:42:01,430 --> 00:41:56,960 to do something it doesn't want to do 1067 00:42:04,390 --> 00:42:01,440 it's not simple right 1068 00:42:05,910 --> 00:42:04,400 and well what is it that the authority 1069 00:42:07,030 --> 00:42:05,920 doesn't want to do in this case 1070 00:42:09,589 --> 00:42:07,040 it doesn't want to confirm the 1071 00:42:12,790 --> 00:42:09,599 extraterrestrial presence 1072 00:42:14,150 --> 00:42:12,800 and we need to get it to do that which 1073 00:42:15,670 --> 00:42:14,160 brings us to the probably the most 1074 00:42:17,910 --> 00:42:15,680 important 1075 00:42:19,109 --> 00:42:17,920 info i can provide your listeners in the 1076 00:42:23,270 --> 00:42:19,119 uk 1077 00:42:25,510 --> 00:42:23,280 many times spent months in london 1078 00:42:26,870 --> 00:42:25,520 been to scotland been all over the place 1079 00:42:30,150 --> 00:42:26,880 love the country 1080 00:42:33,510 --> 00:42:30,160 love the people it's a cool place 1081 00:42:40,550 --> 00:42:37,430 the way disclosure 1082 00:42:41,750 --> 00:42:40,560 needs to take place given how important 1083 00:42:45,589 --> 00:42:41,760 it is 1084 00:42:47,430 --> 00:42:45,599 given the implications it has 1085 00:42:50,150 --> 00:42:47,440 it will be the most profound event in 1086 00:42:53,750 --> 00:42:50,160 human history based upon 1087 00:42:56,630 --> 00:42:53,760 the number of people impacted in one 1088 00:42:59,270 --> 00:42:56,640 form or fashion and the amount of time 1089 00:43:02,069 --> 00:42:59,280 it will take for that impact to hit 1090 00:43:03,270 --> 00:43:02,079 nothing in history will even remotely 1091 00:43:07,030 --> 00:43:03,280 compare 1092 00:43:10,390 --> 00:43:07,040 it's a big deal so it has to be done 1093 00:43:12,309 --> 00:43:10,400 right when you do something big okay if 1094 00:43:13,750 --> 00:43:12,319 something that big has got to be handled 1095 00:43:16,790 --> 00:43:13,760 properly 1096 00:43:19,270 --> 00:43:16,800 like a royal wedding 1097 00:43:20,630 --> 00:43:19,280 you just can't decide out let's hold it 1098 00:43:22,630 --> 00:43:20,640 next wednesday and 1099 00:43:24,069 --> 00:43:22,640 i don't know somebody get a cater throw 1100 00:43:25,190 --> 00:43:24,079 it together whatever invite a few 1101 00:43:26,790 --> 00:43:25,200 friends you no no 1102 00:43:28,470 --> 00:43:26,800 no no no you don't you don't you can't 1103 00:43:32,230 --> 00:43:28,480 do that 1104 00:43:35,510 --> 00:43:32,240 so the way 1105 00:43:38,309 --> 00:43:35,520 that it always had to happen and i knew 1106 00:43:40,230 --> 00:43:38,319 this 25 years ago 1107 00:43:41,829 --> 00:43:40,240 was that in the united states though 1108 00:43:42,390 --> 00:43:41,839 this does apply i think to other 1109 00:43:45,910 --> 00:43:42,400 countries 1110 00:43:50,150 --> 00:43:45,920 way 1111 00:43:52,829 --> 00:43:50,160 appropriately happen 1112 00:43:54,230 --> 00:43:52,839 because it's the most positive 1113 00:43:57,349 --> 00:43:54,240 constructive 1114 00:43:59,270 --> 00:43:57,359 least upsetting disrupting process in 1115 00:44:02,710 --> 00:43:59,280 the united states 1116 00:44:05,750 --> 00:44:02,720 is that the congress needs to call for 1117 00:44:10,470 --> 00:44:08,230 for people for evidence and testimony 1118 00:44:13,990 --> 00:44:10,480 particularly testimony to be presented 1119 00:44:19,510 --> 00:44:17,510 so that the congressional committees 1120 00:44:22,069 --> 00:44:19,520 can make informed decision about 1121 00:44:25,270 --> 00:44:22,079 legislation that is how 1122 00:44:26,950 --> 00:44:25,280 our democratic republic works how to 1123 00:44:28,390 --> 00:44:26,960 deal with a particular issue they need 1124 00:44:32,470 --> 00:44:28,400 informed 1125 00:44:33,910 --> 00:44:32,480 and one of the way that one of the ways 1126 00:44:37,829 --> 00:44:33,920 that they do that 1127 00:44:40,150 --> 00:44:37,839 is they they take testimony under oath 1128 00:44:41,510 --> 00:44:40,160 uh the oath is a is to help ensure the 1129 00:44:43,829 --> 00:44:41,520 information is 1130 00:44:44,950 --> 00:44:43,839 is uh going to be valid because if it's 1131 00:44:49,589 --> 00:44:44,960 not those people 1132 00:44:52,950 --> 00:44:49,599 face penalties for perjury 1133 00:45:00,710 --> 00:44:57,349 and they need to be public in some cases 1134 00:45:01,430 --> 00:45:00,720 because if the public can watch the 1135 00:45:04,550 --> 00:45:01,440 process 1136 00:45:06,870 --> 00:45:04,560 unfold the republic is getting the 1137 00:45:08,150 --> 00:45:06,880 public the public the citizens are 1138 00:45:11,349 --> 00:45:08,160 getting that information 1139 00:45:14,950 --> 00:45:11,359 at the same time in most cases 1140 00:45:17,670 --> 00:45:14,960 then that further 1141 00:45:19,270 --> 00:45:17,680 supports the process and the confidence 1142 00:45:22,230 --> 00:45:19,280 of the people 1143 00:45:23,670 --> 00:45:22,240 no no mysteries here the committee 1144 00:45:24,710 --> 00:45:23,680 chairs and the committee members heard 1145 00:45:26,710 --> 00:45:24,720 just what we just saw 1146 00:45:28,069 --> 00:45:26,720 on camera that doesn't always happen 1147 00:45:30,069 --> 00:45:28,079 because the issues are not important 1148 00:45:32,230 --> 00:45:30,079 enough but the more important the issue 1149 00:45:33,430 --> 00:45:32,240 the more the need for the cameras to be 1150 00:45:38,069 --> 00:45:33,440 in the room 1151 00:45:43,589 --> 00:45:38,079 this is self-evident right and then 1152 00:45:50,710 --> 00:45:47,670 the executive branch 1153 00:45:53,349 --> 00:45:50,720 can all review it 1154 00:45:54,870 --> 00:45:53,359 discuss it with members of congress and 1155 00:45:58,230 --> 00:45:54,880 arrive at a conclusion 1156 00:45:59,910 --> 00:45:58,240 and arrive at a course of action this is 1157 00:46:02,390 --> 00:45:59,920 doesn't happen immediately but it's 1158 00:46:03,750 --> 00:46:02,400 again it can be it can take weeks 1159 00:46:06,309 --> 00:46:03,760 it might take a lot much longer could 1160 00:46:08,230 --> 00:46:06,319 take months but that's the way 1161 00:46:09,349 --> 00:46:08,240 something of this magnitude is supposed 1162 00:46:12,790 --> 00:46:09,359 to happen 1163 00:46:14,309 --> 00:46:12,800 which is why people 1164 00:46:16,390 --> 00:46:14,319 number of people some i know some i 1165 00:46:17,270 --> 00:46:16,400 don't have been trying to get those 1166 00:46:21,190 --> 00:46:17,280 hearings 1167 00:46:24,390 --> 00:46:21,200 for 52 years the last hearing on the 1168 00:46:28,790 --> 00:46:24,400 subject of extraterrestrials or ufos 1169 00:46:30,390 --> 00:46:28,800 was 1968 in a house lasted a single day 1170 00:46:32,230 --> 00:46:30,400 there were four i think four people 1171 00:46:35,430 --> 00:46:32,240 testified and there were some reports 1172 00:46:36,950 --> 00:46:35,440 that was it that was it the next year 1173 00:46:39,109 --> 00:46:36,960 they disbanded blue book 1174 00:46:40,829 --> 00:46:39,119 and basically said we don't need to 1175 00:46:45,750 --> 00:46:40,839 study this anymore 1176 00:46:47,430 --> 00:46:45,760 um that that wasn't a real attempt 1177 00:46:49,990 --> 00:46:47,440 to get information to make informed 1178 00:46:52,230 --> 00:46:50,000 decisions that was a show hearing 1179 00:46:53,109 --> 00:46:52,240 i'm not saying that the people testified 1180 00:46:55,109 --> 00:46:53,119 were doing that 1181 00:46:56,309 --> 00:46:55,119 but the congress in the white house that 1182 00:46:58,790 --> 00:46:56,319 was a show here 1183 00:47:00,309 --> 00:46:58,800 get it done close down blue book let's 1184 00:47:04,550 --> 00:47:00,319 move on 1185 00:47:06,390 --> 00:47:04,560 so in the 52 years since 1186 00:47:09,190 --> 00:47:06,400 every effort to get hearings has been 1187 00:47:13,670 --> 00:47:09,200 blocked cold 1188 00:47:16,069 --> 00:47:13,680 stop cold couldn't happen because 1189 00:47:17,589 --> 00:47:16,079 with each passing year the government or 1190 00:47:20,150 --> 00:47:17,599 the elements of the government that 1191 00:47:21,510 --> 00:47:20,160 dealt with this issue knew that hearings 1192 00:47:24,950 --> 00:47:21,520 like that 1193 00:47:26,710 --> 00:47:24,960 proper hearings over days many number 1194 00:47:28,230 --> 00:47:26,720 many committees many witnesses would end 1195 00:47:32,790 --> 00:47:28,240 the truth embargo 1196 00:47:36,069 --> 00:47:32,800 therefore there cannot be hearings 1197 00:47:40,230 --> 00:47:37,829 what clinton would have done almost 1198 00:47:42,470 --> 00:47:40,240 certainly 1199 00:47:44,230 --> 00:47:42,480 and there's there's it's not the only 1200 00:47:46,790 --> 00:47:44,240 way to end the truth embargo as i've 1201 00:47:49,030 --> 00:47:46,800 said if clinton won the presidency 1202 00:47:50,630 --> 00:47:49,040 she could have once he got the white 1203 00:47:53,510 --> 00:47:50,640 house set up and 1204 00:47:57,030 --> 00:47:53,520 everybody's uh in place she could have 1205 00:47:58,790 --> 00:47:57,040 sent an emissary over to the pentagon 1206 00:48:00,069 --> 00:47:58,800 uh to meet with the top pentagon 1207 00:48:02,950 --> 00:48:00,079 officials top

the truth 1211 00:48:12,230 --> 00:48:09,119 of this matter to the american people 1212 00:48:14,790 --> 00:48:12,240 and the pentagon working with what other 1213 00:48:18,230 --> 00:48:14,800 appropriate agencies are necessary 1214 00:48:19,990 --> 00:48:18,240 will provide to her in less than 30 days 1215 00:48:23,109 --> 00:48:20,000 no less than 30 days 1216 00:48:25,190 -->

disclosed 1239 00:49:12,069 --> 00:49:09,599 and that's one way 1240 00:49:13,829 --> 00:49:12,079 but she would have done that she would 1241 00:49:15,589 --> 00:49:13,839 have simply encouraged committee chairs 1242 00:49:19,349 --> 00:49:15,599 in congress to call 1243 00:49:20,710 --> 00:49:19,359 for hearings and those hearings 1244 00:49:22,230 --> 00:49:20,720 have gotten underway the focus would 1245 00:49:24,309 --> 00:49:22,240 have been national security that's the 1246 00:49:24,710 --> 00:49:24,319 logical focus for such hearings to begin 1247 00:49:27,430 --> 00:49:24,720 with 1248 00:49:30,069 --> 00:49:27,440 the witnesses would be predominantly if 1249 00:49:32,150 --> 00:49:30,079 not exclusively military 1250 00:49:33,990 --> 00:49:32,160 military witnesses men and women who 1251 00:49:36,470 --> 00:49:34,000 took an oath to serve and are now taking 1252 00:49:39,670 --> 00:49:36,480 another oath to testify 1253 00:49:41,270 --> 00:49:39,680 and those hearings would have presented 1254 00:49:42,950 --> 00:49:41,280 evidence in front of the american people 1255 00:49:43,990 --> 00:49:42,960 and by that i mean hundreds of millions 1256 00:49:45,270 --> 00:49:44,000 of people around the world 1257 00:49:47,829 --> 00:49:45,280 because these would be the most watched 1258 00:49:50,950 --> 00:49:47,839 hearings in all of history 1259 00:49:54,309 --> 00:49:50,960 with a the evidentiary 1260 00:49:57,349 --> 00:49:54,319 testimony until such time 1261 00:49:59,589 --> 00:49:57,359 as it was obvious to anybody who got 1262 00:50:01,349 --> 00:49:59,599 past junior high school 1263 00:50:04,150 --> 00:50:01,359 that of course the extraterrestrial 1264 00:50:06,549 --> 00:50:04,160 presidency is in fact the explanation 1265 00:50:08,790 --> 00:50:06,559 that then allows the president to confer 1266 00:50:11,829 --> 00:50:08,800 with members of congress or key 1267 00:50:15,349 --> 00:50:11,839 congressional leaders as well as uh 1268 00:50:17,750 --> 00:50:15,359 important important uh people in the dod 1269 00:50:18,710 --> 00:50:17,760 appropriate people in dod privately 1270 00:50:20,710 --> 00:50:18,720 confer 1271 00:50:23,349 --> 00:50:20,720 and arrive at the conclusion that yes 1272 00:50:25,349 --> 00:50:23,359 the evidence confirms the e.t presence 1273 00:50:26,549 --> 00:50:25,359 we have watched it the american people 1274 00:50:28,230 --> 00:50:26,559 have watched it 1275 00:50:30,150 --> 00:50:28,240 and so it's now appropriate that i go 1276 00:50:32,710 --> 00:50:30,160 before the american people and confirm 1277 00:50:35,349 --> 00:50:32,720 what that evidence presents 1278 00:50:36,470 --> 00:50:35,359 that would be exactly the way it has to 1279 00:50:37,670 --> 00:50:36,480 be done 1280 00:50:40,230 --> 00:50:37,680 and we would thus be in the 1281 00:50:41,510 --> 00:50:40,240 post-disclosure world there would be all 1282 00:50:43,109 --> 00:50:41,520 kinds of questions 1283 00:50:45,109 --> 00:50:43,119 public relations problems for some 1284 00:50:47,670 --> 00:50:45,119 people not for others 1285 00:50:49,190 --> 00:50:47,680 and that we would already be three years 1286 00:50:51,430 --> 00:50:49,200 down the line 1287 00:50:52,630 --> 00:50:51,440 let me ask you on that stephen the uap 1288 00:50:55,190 --> 00:50:52,640 task force report 1289 00:50:57,030 --> 00:50:55,200 is currently scheduled to be um 1290 00:50:58,470 --> 00:50:57,040 published in june although obviously 1291 00:50:59,829 --> 00:50:58,480 there's a lot of rumors coming up that 1292 00:51:01,990 --> 00:50:59,839 it's more than likely going to be 1293 00:51:03,109 --> 00:51:02,000 delayed none other than chris mellon has 1294 00:51:05,589 --> 00:51:03,119 confirmed that himself 1295 00:51:06,710 --> 00:51:05,599 not confirmed but he's he's stated no 1296 00:51:08,230 --> 00:51:06,720 he's not confirmed no but 1297 00:51:10,230 --> 00:51:08,240 more than likely he said it is going to 1298 00:51:11,190 --> 00:51:10,240 be delayed that would be the most likely 1299 00:51:14,069 --> 00:51:11,200 outcome 1300 00:51:14,790 --> 00:51:14,079 what do you see that report containing 1301 00:51:17,510 --> 00:51:14,800 when it does 1302 00:51:19,270 --> 00:51:17,520 if indeed come out in june i have no 1303 00:51:22,390 --> 00:51:19,280 idea what's going to be in it 1304 00:51:25,829 --> 00:51:22,400 however that brings me to 1305 00:51:29,829 --> 00:51:25,839 the second half of that response 1306 00:51:32,549 --> 00:51:31,190 that i believe would have happened if 1307 00:51:34,470 --> 00:51:32,559 hillary clinton secretary hillary 1308 00:51:37,430 --> 00:51:34,480 clinton won the presidency 1309 00:51:40,069 --> 00:51:37,440 is about to happen now under president 1310 00:51:46,950 --> 00:51:43,270 and while my 1311 00:51:50,470 --> 00:51:46,960 effort to get this done 1312 00:51:53,190 --> 00:51:50,480 was the election initiative 1313 00:51:54,870 --> 00:51:53,200 that i discussed generating all those 1314 00:51:57,510 --> 00:51:54,880 articles and coverage 1315 00:51:58,790 --> 00:51:57,520 and forcing the clinton political team 1316 00:51:59,990 --> 00:51:58,800 out of cover 1317 00:52:01,430 --> 00:52:00,000 where they did have to make some 1318 00:52:03,829 --> 00:52:01,440 statements statements that they were 1319 00:52:06,069 --> 00:52:03,839 always going to have to live with 1320 00:52:08,309 --> 00:52:06,079 john podesta herself her husband and 1321 00:52:11,589 --> 00:52:08,319 barack obama 1322 00:52:14,470 --> 00:52:11,599 uh didn't work didn't happen 1323 00:52:16,069 --> 00:52:14,480 and so when she lost the election i i i 1324 00:52:22,309 --> 00:52:16,079 had basically 1325 00:52:27,510 --> 00:52:24,870 and then i went to london and sort of 1326 00:52:30,549 --> 00:52:27,520 left the field of play 1327 00:52:33,910 --> 00:52:30,559 but a new entrant into this 1328 00:52:37,270 --> 00:52:33,920 disclosure process emerged in october of 1329 00:52:44,549 --> 00:52:41,030 and it's what they've done during 1330 00:52:48,710 --> 00:52:44,559 this past four years 1331 00:52:52,870 --> 00:52:48,720 that has created the situation where 1332 00:52:54,309 --> 00:52:52,880 what i discussed will not take place 1333 00:52:56,150 --> 00:52:54,319 and i'm talking about the to the stars 1334 00:52:59,990 --> 00:52:56,160 academy 1335 00:53:02,549 --> 00:53:00,000 and all that it has done and all of the 1336 00:53:03,349 --> 00:53:02,559 reactions to it and other things that 1337 00:53:06,630 --> 00:53:03,359 have happened 1338 00:53:07,829 --> 00:53:06,640 because of it and this whereas my 1339 00:53:11,349 --> 00:53:07,839 political initiative 1340 00:53:14,230 --> 00:53:11,359 took place between january of 2015 1341 00:53:15,430 --> 00:53:14,240 and the election of 2016 probably 20 1342 00:53:17,750 --> 00:53:15,440 months 1343 00:53:19,829 --> 00:53:17,760 they have been at this now for three 1344 00:53:23,750 --> 00:53:19,839 years a little longer 1345 00:53:25,910 --> 00:53:23,760 um from october of 2017 to 1346 00:53:27,270 --> 00:53:25,920 october 2020 that's three years so you 1347 00:53:31,910 --> 00:53:27,280 know it's about three 1348 00:53:36,630 --> 00:53:31,920 three years five months and 1349 00:53:39,109 --> 00:53:36,640 they they they had they had some uh 1350 00:53:40,549 --> 00:53:39,119 tools in their tool chest that i didn't 1351 00:53:43,270 --> 00:53:40,559 have 1352 00:53:44,390 --> 00:53:43,280 they they came forward as a group of 1353 00:53:45,990 --> 00:53:44,400 individuals from the military 1354 00:53:49,430 --> 00:53:46,000 intelligence complex with 1355 00:53:50,630 --> 00:53:49,440 long careers uh as private citizens and 1356 00:53:53,910 --> 00:53:50,640 an ngo 1357 00:53:56,549 --> 00:53:53,920 non-government organization and the 1358 00:53:58,870 --> 00:53:56,559 first act that they did was to 1359 00:53:59,589 --> 00:53:58,880 provide the new york times with uh the 1360 00:54:01,589 --> 00:53:59,599 uh 1361 00:54:04,950 --> 00:54:01,599 information that the new york times 1362 00:54:09,510 --> 00:54:04,960 eventually vetted and and published in 1363 00:54:11,910 --> 00:54:09,520 december 16 2017. these are the two 1364 00:54:12,710 --> 00:54:11,920 major articles on the front page of 1365 00:54:15,829 --> 00:54:12,720 which i think 1366 00:54:18,069 --> 00:54:15,839 most of your listeners know about then 1367 00:54:20,630 --> 00:54:18,079 they followed up with 1368 00:54:22,549 --> 00:54:20,640 a series on history channel called 1369 00:54:25,349 --> 00:54:22,559 unidentified 1370 00:54:27,109 --> 00:54:25,359 inside america's secret ufo 1371 00:54:30,710 --> 00:54:27,119 investigation 1372 00:54:34,069 --> 00:54:30,720 14 episodes they did that 1373 00:54:36,549 --> 00:54:34,079 and they started giving more interviews 1374 00:54:38,230 --> 00:54:36,559 and speaking to the issue writing op-eds 1375 00:54:40,309 --> 00:54:38,240 things like that 1376 00:54:42,230 --> 00:54:40,319 and that that's going on been going on 1377 00:54:46,710 --> 00:54:42,240 all the way back to 1378 00:54:50,069 --> 00:54:46,720 uh october of 2017. 1379 00:54:53,750 --> 00:54:50,079 and this what they did 1380 00:54:57,190 --> 00:54:53,760 significantly changed the 1381 00:54:59,990 --> 00:54:57,200 circuit this the situation uh 1382 00:55:01,750 --> 00:55:00,000 they have moved the ball well down the 1383 00:55:03,510 --> 00:55:01,760 field 1384 00:55:06,549 --> 00:55:03,520 uh and and there have been many 1385 00:55:08,069 --> 00:55:06,559 consequences of that but 1386 00:55:09,750 --> 00:55:08,079 they lowered the bar for witnesses to 1387 00:55:12,630 --> 00:55:09,760 come forward 1388 00:55:15,030 --> 00:55:12,640 they dramatically increased the 1389 00:55:17,990 --> 00:55:15,040 willingness of thai and media 1390 00:55:18,950 --> 00:55:18,000 to write about this issue appropriately 1391 00:55:21,430 --> 00:55:18,960 they drove 1392 00:55:22,549 --> 00:55:21,440 virtually all of the skeptics the 1393 00:55:25,829 --> 00:55:22,559 debunkers 1394 00:55:28,150 --> 00:55:25,839 the skepta bunkers and anybody else 1395 00:55:29,910 --> 00:55:28,160 with a bizarre desire to become the 1396 00:55:32,789 --> 00:55:29,920 field class of the 21st century they 1397 00:55:35,190 --> 00:55:32,799 drove them off the field 1398 00:55:37,910 --> 00:55:35,200 and things started happening we started 1399 00:55:39,190 --> 00:55:37,920 seeing reactions and so forth 1400 00:55:41,030 --> 00:55:39,200 and there's not enough time to go 1401 00:55:42,710 --> 00:55:41,040 through all that but i will 1402 00:55:44,470 --> 00:55:42,720 i will tell your listeners how they can 1403 00:55:49,349 --> 00:55:44,480 learn about all of that 1404 00:55:53,670 --> 00:55:49,359 in a second but the 1405 00:55:55,510 --> 00:55:53,680 the two things that were most important 1406 00:55:57,670 --> 00:55:55,520 that emerged from this project the to 1407 00:55:59,109 --> 00:55:57,680 the stars academy of arts and science 1408 00:56:01,589 --> 00:55:59,119 we just tend to call it the to the stars 1409 00:56:05,510 --> 00:56:01,599 academy or the ttsa 1410 00:56:06,069 --> 00:56:05,520 was this one of the members christopher 1411 00:56:08,789 --> 00:56:06,079 mellon 1412 00:56:11,190 --> 00:56:08,799 is a former deputy assistant secretary 1413 00:56:15,670 --> 00:56:11,200 of defense for intelligence 1414 00:56:20,630 --> 00:56:18,950 and luis elizondo long career with the 1415 00:56:24,230 --> 00:56:20,640 department of defense 1416 00:56:27,190 --> 00:56:24,240 as a uh 1417 00:56:28,789 --> 00:56:27,200 intelligence operative working in many 1418 00:56:32,549 --> 00:56:28,799 countries 1419 00:56:34,309 --> 00:56:32,559 uh highly educated highly skilled 1420 00:56:35,829 --> 00:56:34,319 a fellow seen it all done at all who was 1421 00:56:38,549 --> 00:56:35,839 also a populist and a very 1422 00:56:41,349 --> 00:56:38,559 nice guy i was approachable guy these 1423 00:56:45,349 --> 00:56:44,309 essentially pursued what i believe and 1424 00:56:48,789 --> 00:56:45,359 will continue to believe 1425 00:56:50,630 --> 00:56:48,799 until i'm told otherwise 1426 00:56:53,349 --> 00:56:50,640 what would the the fundamental agenda of 1427 00:57:02,150 --> 00:56:53,359 the to the stars academy 1428 00:57:05,670 --> 00:57:04,069 one of his key jobs was dealing with 1429 00:57:09,109 --> 00:57:05,680 witnesses military 1430 00:57:10,309 --> 00:57:09,119 men and maybe some women he interviewed 1431 00:57:14,069 --> 00:57:10,319 them 1432 00:57:17,990 --> 00:57:14,079 unidentified series 1433 00:57:19,270 --> 00:57:18,000 some in silhouette and when they did 1434 00:57:20,789 --> 00:57:19,280 that 1435 00:57:22,309 --> 00:57:20,799 they say they lowered the bar 1436 00:57:25,670 --> 00:57:22,319 substantially 1437 00:57:30,470 --> 00:57:25,680 for any military 1438 00:57:32,150 --> 00:57:30,480 people who have compelling stories 1439 00:57:34,390 --> 00:57:32,160 about the e.t issue of one form and 1440 00:57:35,990 --> 00:57:34,400 fashion to come forward 1441 00:57:39,109 --> 00:57:36,000 because it was clear the risk of doing 1442 00:57:41,430 --> 00:57:39,119 so was simply had evaporated 1443 00:57:43,750 --> 00:57:41,440 it wasn't going to be a problem and 1444 00:57:46,630 --> 00:57:43,760 there are thousands of them 1445 00:57:49,190 --> 00:57:46,640 we we know that because of the 1446 00:57:51,430 --> 00:57:49,200 unidentified show 1447 00:57:52,309 --> 00:57:51,440 and other appearances he made that 1448 00:57:55,910 --> 00:57:52,319 scores of 1449 00:57:58,230 --> 00:57:55,920 military were contacting him privately 1450 00:58:01,270 --> 00:57:58,240 and that and that's probably still going 1451 00:58:03,030 --> 00:58:01,280 on so it was going on for a couple years 1452 00:58:05,190 --> 00:58:03,040 at the same time we learned that 1453 00:58:08,309 --> 00:58:05,200 christopher mellon 1454 00:58:11,910 --> 00:58:08,319 had made a decision well 1455 00:58:14,950 --> 00:58:11,920 he he had decided to engage the congress 1456 00:58:18,549 --> 00:58:14,960 um we didn't learn about this until 1457 00:58:21,349 --> 00:58:18,559 mid in 2019 1458 00:58:23,030 --> 00:58:21,359 he wrote an op-ed in the hill newspaper 1459 00:58:25,750 --> 00:58:23,040 which is a very 1460 00:58:27,270 --> 00:58:25,760 important newspaper in washington people 1461 00:58:28,789 --> 00:58:27,280 outside of washington may not know about 1462 00:58:30,470 --> 00:58:28,799 it but the hill is they have they have a 1463 00:58:31,829 --> 00:58:30,480 very important website but the hill is a 1464 00:58:32,630 --> 00:58:31,839 very important political newspaper in 1465 00:58:36,309 --> 00:58:32,640 washington 1466 00:58:39,430 --> 00:58:36,319 he wrote an op-ed uh in 1467 00:58:41,750 --> 00:58:39,440 i forget maybe may of 2019 1468 00:58:44,309 --> 00:58:41,760 uh basically saying that the congress 1469 00:58:46,870 --> 00:58:44,319 needs to get involved here 1470 00:58:48,390 --> 00:58:46,880 congress needs to engage this he had 1471 00:58:50,549 --> 00:58:48,400 previously written an op-ed in 1472 00:58:51,990 --> 00:58:50,559 the washington post saying that the 1473 00:58:54,470 --> 00:58:52,000 pentagon needs to get 1474 00:58:55,829 --> 00:58:54,480 on the ball here right uh but now he 1475 00:58:57,510 --> 00:58:55,839 wrote this op-ed in a hill about 1476 00:59:01,430 --> 00:58:57,520 congress needs to get involved 1477 00:59:04,549 --> 00:59:01,440 later that year we got wind that he was 1478 00:59:06,309 --> 00:59:04,559 up on the hill holding meetings with 1479 00:59:08,069 --> 00:59:06,319 members of congress 1480 00:59:09,589 --> 00:59:08,079 almost certainly focused on committee 1481 00:59:11,510 --> 00:59:09,599 chairs 1482 00:59:12,870 --> 00:59:11,520 there are and ranking members there are 1483 00:59:15,430 --> 00:59:12,880 six 1484 00:59:16,630 --> 00:59:15,440 key committees that would would be 1485 00:59:20,309 --> 00:59:16,640 involved in hearings 1486 00:59:21,910 --> 00:59:20,319 of this regarding this issue the 1487 00:59:23,589 --> 00:59:21,920 two most important are the intelligence 1488 00:59:25,270 --> 00:59:23,599 committees of the house and senate 1489 00:59:27,349 --> 00:59:25,280 and the most important of that is the 1490 00:59:29,109 --> 00:59:27,359 senate intelligence committee 1491 00:59:30,789 --> 00:59:29,119 so we knew he was doing that how many we 1492 00:59:33,190 --> 00:59:30,799 don't know but some of the committee 1493 00:59:34,390 --> 00:59:33,200 chairs or congressional members actually 1494 00:59:37,430 --> 00:59:34,400 did 1495 00:59:38,230 --> 00:59:37,440 let it be known that they had had a 1496 00:59:40,789 --> 00:59:38,240 meeting 1497 00:59:41,589 --> 00:59:40,799 but not talking content these were 1498 00:59:44,390 --> 00:59:41,599 private 1499 00:59:46,069 --> 00:59:44,400 off the record briefings we learned that 1500 00:59:48,870 --> 00:59:46,079 witnesses were also 1501 00:59:50,150 --> 00:59:48,880 in those meetings for sure some of the 1502 00:59:52,150 --> 00:59:50,160 pilots from the nimitz and 1503 00:59:53,190 --> 00:59:52,160 other pilots but the total number of 1504 00:59:54,549 --> 00:59:53,200 witnesses that might have been there we 1505 00:59:57,109 --> 00:59:54,559 don't know 1506 00:59:58,390 --> 00:59:57,119 but there were meetings on the hill 1507 01:00:01,990 --> 00:59:58,400 about this issue 1508 01:00:06,069 --> 01:00:02,000 with committee chairs we learned that 1509 01:00:09,109 --> 01:00:07,670 eventually we learned that the president 1510 01:00:10,950 --> 01:00:09,119 also got one of these briefings 1511 01:00:12,630 --> 01:00:10,960 that's when i picked up stakes started 1512 01:00:14,470 --> 01:00:12,640 to raise the money to pick up stakes and 1513 01:00:17,109 --> 01:00:14,480 move back to washington 1514 01:00:18,950 --> 01:00:17,119 in order to get back on the field i'd 1515 01:00:20,630 --> 01:00:18,960 been sitting on the bench for a while 1516 01:00:23,270 --> 01:00:20,640 once i heard the president brief that 1517 01:00:28,870 --> 01:00:23,280 was it so i came back to dc 1518 01:00:35,030 --> 01:00:28,880 and did what i had to do and so 1519 01:00:37,910 --> 01:00:36,630 but they were doing things that i could 1520 01:00:38,710 --> 01:00:37,920 never have done i mean i did what i 1521 01:00:40,390 --> 01:00:38,720 could do because i 1522 01:00:42,630 --> 01:00:40,400 i had there were some things i could do 1523 01:00:44,870 --> 01:00:42,640 and i did them but i couldn't get a 1524 01:00:47,349 --> 01:00:44,880 history channel series 1525 01:00:48,710 --> 01:00:47,359 i couldn't meet with aircraft pilots 1526 01:00:50,710 --> 01:00:48,720 from the nimitz 1527 01:00:51,829 --> 01:00:50,720 i didn't have a i didn't have the career 1528 01:00:53,510 --> 01:00:51,839 of christopher malloy i can go on the 1529 01:00:54,549 --> 01:00:53,520 hill and talk to committee chairs they 1530 01:00:57,349 --> 01:00:54,559 could 1531 01:00:57,750 --> 01:00:57,359 they were using their their background 1532 01:01:04,950 --> 01:00:57,760 and 1533 01:01:06,710 --> 01:01:04,960 i've been talking about this now 1534 01:01:10,470 --> 01:01:06,720 extensively 1535 01:01:14,069 --> 01:01:10,480 uh since december of last year 1536 01:01:17,270 --> 01:01:14,079 is that the fundamental agenda 1537 01:01:18,390 --> 01:01:17,280 of that project forget everything else 1538 01:01:20,069 --> 01:01:18,400 that was said or done and what the 1539 01:01:22,549 --> 01:01:20,079 website says find all that may be 1540 01:01:24,150 --> 01:01:22,559 true it's not saying it's not a it's not 1541 01:01:25,829 --> 01:01:24,160 a single dimension thing but the 1542 01:01:26,789 --> 01:01:25,839 fundamental agenda the reason why they 1543 01:01:29,430 --> 01:01:26,799 took the risk 1544 01:01:31,109 --> 01:01:29,440 that they did forgo the income that they 1545 01:01:32,710 --> 01:01:31,119 had to forego 1546 01:01:35,030 --> 01:01:32,720 was they were going to get the hearings 1547 01:01:37,910 --> 01:01:35,040 that i was we're talking about 1548 01:01:39,670 --> 01:01:37,920 had to get the hearings and so where we 1549 01:01:41,670 --> 01:01:39,680 are now 1550 01:01:42,870 --> 01:01:41,680 is that luis elizondo has essentially 1551 01:01:47,190 --> 01:01:42,880 accumulated 1552 01:01:49,030 --> 01:01:47,200 a very long list of military witnesses 1553 01:01:50,549 --> 01:01:49,040 christopher mellon has set the stage for 1554 01:01:53,270 --> 01:01:50,559 the committee chairs to call 1555 01:01:55,109 --> 01:01:53,280 for hearings for these witnesses and 1556 01:01:56,549 --> 01:01:55,119 we're going to get those hearings 1557 01:01:59,589 --> 01:01:56,559 the hearings that we have been trying to 1558 01:02:02,630 --> 01:01:59,599 get since 1968 1559 01:02:03,910 --> 01:02:02,640 and when those hearings take place they 1560 01:02:07,029 --> 01:02:03,920 will be before 1561 01:02:09,510 --> 01:02:07,039 a number of committees 1562 01:02:13,270 --> 01:02:09,520 almost all if not all of the witnesses 1563 01:02:14,950 --> 01:02:13,280 will be military retired or active 1564 01:02:16,230 --> 01:02:14,960 those hearings will be seen by hundreds 1565 01:02:18,390 --> 01:02:16,240 of millions of people around the world 1566 01:02:20,230 --> 01:02:18,400 they will be televised 1567 01:02:22,390 --> 01:02:20,240 some things will be taken in private 1568 01:02:25,750 --> 01:02:22,400 session meaning some things will be 1569 01:02:29,510 --> 01:02:25,760 uh classified and and uh the witnesses 1570 01:02:31,910 --> 01:02:29,520 will testify about that in a classified 1571 01:02:33,349 --> 01:02:31,920 secret session that's that's fine but 1572 01:02:34,789 --> 01:02:33,359 the vast majority will be public 1573 01:02:38,390 --> 01:02:34,799 hearings 1574 01:02:40,390 --> 01:02:38,400 while but not 1575 01:02:42,710 --> 01:02:40,400 but after a relatively short amount of 1576 01:02:44,069 --> 01:02:42,720 time weeks 1577 01:02:45,990 --> 01:02:44,079 the president of the united states will 1578 01:02:47,109 --> 01:02:46,000 be able to do what i just said 1579 01:02:49,589 --> 01:02:47,119 and what would have likely happened 1580 01:02:50,870 --> 01:02:49,599 under clinton the president can confer 1581 01:02:52,069 --> 01:02:50,880 with the congressional leaders in the 1582 01:02:54,870 --> 01:02:52,079 pentagon 1583 01:02:56,549 --> 01:02:54,880 and say what do you think gentlemen 1584 01:02:59,910 --> 01:02:56,559 ladies and gentlemen and they will say 1585 01:03:01,750 --> 01:02:59,920 mr president i think it's compelling 1586 01:03:03,029 --> 01:03:01,760 uh clearly we have a non-human 1587 01:03:06,150 --> 01:03:03,039 engagement 1588 01:03:07,589 --> 01:03:06,160 by uh extraterrestrials 1589 01:03:09,430 --> 01:03:07,599 and then the president can go in front 1590 01:03:11,750 --> 01:03:09,440 of the american people and say i've seen 1591 01:03:13,750 --> 01:03:11,760 the evidence you've seen the evidence 1592 01:03:14,870 --> 01:03:13,760 i've conferred with my top leaders my 1593 01:03:17,190 --> 01:03:14,880 top officials and support 1594 01:03:18,710 --> 01:03:17,200 advisors and i think we can confirm to 1595 01:03:20,870 --> 01:03:18,720 you that yes that evidence confirms the 1596 01:03:24,870 --> 01:03:20,880 extraterrestrial presence 1597 01:03:26,390 --> 01:03:24,880 and that's the way it has to be done 1598 01:03:28,390 --> 01:03:26,400 that's the end of the embargo in the 1599 01:03:32,069 --> 01:03:28,400 beginning of the post-disclosure world 1600 01:03:35,510 --> 01:03:32,079 it's constructive it's public 1601 01:03:38,549 --> 01:03:35,520 everybody wins the president wins 1602 01:03:39,750 --> 01:03:38,559 he he he is like hey i've 1603 01:03:41,670 --> 01:03:39,760 i've seen the evidence you've seen the 1604 01:03:43,109 --> 01:03:41,680 evidence here it is as opposed to some 1605 01:03:44,230 --> 01:03:43,119 president coming forward and saying 1606 01:03:46,309 --> 01:03:44,240 i'm going to tell you today there's 1607 01:03:48,470 --> 01:03:46,319 extraterrestrials here i knew about it 1608 01:03:50,069 --> 01:03:48,480 hell 35 years ago but i decided to go 1609 01:03:50,630 --> 01:03:50,079 along with the truth embargo but here it 1610 01:03:54,230 --> 01:03:50,640 is today 1611 01:03:55,829 --> 01:03:54,240 if you don't like that pound sand no 1612 01:03:57,510 --> 01:03:55,839 it's it the president's in a comfortable 1613 01:04:00,710 --> 01:03:57,520 position all of the committee 1614 01:04:02,150 --> 01:04:00,720 members that that take this testimony 1615 01:04:04,150 --> 01:04:02,160 will be heroes around the world the 1616 01:04:05,589 --> 01:04:04,160 committee chairs particularly 1617 01:04:08,150 --> 01:04:05,599 both parties will be involved 1618 01:04:10,470 --> 01:04:08,160 non-partisan issue they are winners 1619 01:04:11,349 --> 01:04:10,480 the dod is participation and assistant 1620 01:04:14,549 --> 01:04:11,359 it's a winner 1621 01:04:17,910 --> 01:04:14,559 everybody wins now there is plenty of 1622 01:04:21,109 --> 01:04:17,920 real difficult questions 1623 01:04:22,870 --> 01:04:21,119 to answer ultimately and plenty of 1624 01:04:24,789 --> 01:04:22,880 difficult things the american people are 1625 01:04:26,950 --> 01:04:24,799 going to learn but this is his 1626 01:04:29,750 --> 01:04:26,960 win-win-win as it's ever going to get 1627 01:04:30,630 --> 01:04:29,760 and that's the way it has to be and now 1628 01:04:35,829 --> 01:04:30,640 you may say 1629 01:04:41,910 --> 01:04:39,029 first of all let me say this it ne 1630 01:04:44,150 --> 01:04:41,920 it needs to happen as soon as possible 1631 01:04:46,630 --> 01:04:44,160 in other words as far as i was concerned 1632 01:04:48,309 --> 01:04:46,640 once biden took office hell it could 1633 01:04:49,750 --> 01:04:48,319 have happened the next week 1634 01:04:51,349 --> 01:04:49,760 and there's some compelling reasons for 1635 01:04:56,630 --> 01:04:51,359 that 1636 01:04:59,829 --> 01:04:56,640 about 1637 01:05:01,029 --> 01:04:59,839 the storms are still raging the waves 1638 01:05:04,309 --> 01:05:01,039 are high 1639 01:05:05,349 --> 01:05:04,319 and so right now the number the things 1640 01:05:08,069 --> 01:05:05,359 that are 1641 01:05:08,710 --> 01:05:08,079 most impacting when these hearings get 1642 01:05:12,870 --> 01:05:08,720 underway 1643 01:05:17,190 --> 01:05:12,880 are one the 1644 01:05:18,950 --> 01:05:17,200 progress of covid19 mutations 1645 01:05:23,430 --> 01:05:18,960 and to what degree they're going to 1646 01:05:27,190 --> 01:05:23,440 spread particularly in the u.s 1647 01:05:27,510 --> 01:05:27,200 and how how yeah and how infectious they 1648 01:05:30,710 --> 01:05:27,520 are 1649 01:05:34,870 --> 01:05:30,720 and so forth that could extend this 1650 01:05:36,390 --> 01:05:34,880 pandemic further than we had hoped 1651 01:05:38,230 --> 01:05:36,400 i happen to believe that there's going 1652 01:05:39,589 --> 01:05:38,240 to be one more surge it's just starting 1653 01:05:41,829 --> 01:05:39,599 it's going to be the worst it's going to 1654 01:05:45,029 --> 01:05:41,839 be very very bad 1655 01:05:48,950 --> 01:05:45,039 but then there is the vaccine schedule 1656 01:05:51,670 --> 01:05:48,960 and so while the the mutation 1657 01:05:52,549 --> 01:05:51,680 variant problem is unfolding at the same 1658 01:05:56,309 --> 01:05:52,559 time 1659 01:05:58,710 --> 01:05:56,319 we are accelerating the vaccine delivery 1660 01:06:00,069 --> 01:05:58,720 and so if that continues at a strong 1661 01:06:03,109 --> 01:06:00,079 pace 1662 01:06:04,549 --> 01:06:03,119 that is going to help profoundly make it 1663 01:06:06,309 --> 01:06:04,559 possible for these hearings so these are 1664 01:06:07,109 --> 01:06:06,319 the two things and then there's a third 1665 01:06:11,109 --> 01:06:07,119 thing 1666 01:06:13,349 --> 01:06:11,119 in that some of the grotesque politics 1667 01:06:14,549 --> 01:06:13,359 is still with us now there's things just 1668 01:06:17,190 --> 01:06:14,559 didn't settle down 1669 01:06:18,230 --> 01:06:17,200 after the election in november it got 1670 01:06:22,150 --> 01:06:18,240 worse 1671 01:06:24,069 --> 01:06:22,160 happened and so 1672 01:06:25,430 --> 01:06:24,079 and in the politics in the senate 1673 01:06:27,510 --> 01:06:25,440 because of the fact that 1674 01:06:29,670 --> 01:06:27,520 things did not settle down the politics 1675 01:06:33,430 --> 01:06:29,680 in congress particularly in the senate 1676 01:06:36,309 --> 01:06:33,440 are toxic 1677 01:06:37,349 --> 01:06:36,319 um uh boy what's the word i'm looking 1678 01:06:40,549 --> 01:06:37,359 for it's 1679 01:06:43,750 --> 01:06:40,559 it's it's bad okay extremely bad 1680 01:06:44,630 --> 01:06:43,760 so these are the the ver the key 1681 01:06:47,190 --> 01:06:44,640 variables 1682 01:06:49,349 --> 01:06:47,200 all right there's four and i'm watching 1683 01:06:52,710 --> 01:06:49,359 them very closely 1684 01:06:54,870 --> 01:06:52,720 and as they begin to clarify 1685 01:06:56,309 --> 01:06:54,880 then the potential for hearings is there 1686 01:06:57,829 --> 01:06:56,319 now the advantage of that 1687 01:06:59,750 --> 01:06:57,839 is that as we go forward in the in the 1688 01:07:02,069 --> 01:06:59,760 coming weeks maybe months 1689 01:07:03,510 --> 01:07:02,079 i i just got lots of time to get in 1690 01:07:04,789 --> 01:07:03,520 front of every freaking camera and 1691 01:07:07,190 --> 01:07:04,799 television camera and 1692 01:07:08,710 --> 01:07:07,200 microphone and talk about this at 1693 01:07:11,029 --> 01:07:08,720 infinite 1694 01:07:12,789 --> 01:07:11,039 i've already booked 69 interviews just 1695 01:07:14,549 --> 01:07:12,799 this year 1696 01:07:16,870 --> 01:07:14,559 i'll book another 100 over the next 1697 01:07:19,510 --> 01:07:16,880 month or two easily maybe more 1698 01:07:20,470 --> 01:07:19,520 uh so we we and others are joining in 1699 01:07:23,589 --> 01:07:20,480 you've got 1700 01:07:26,630 --> 01:07:23,599 doing things and 1701 01:07:28,470 --> 01:07:26,640 and and and a lot i'm posting about this 1702 01:07:29,670 --> 01:07:28,480 on facebook and twitter and podcasts and 1703 01:07:31,270 --> 01:07:29,680 everything else so the 1704 01:07:32,950 --> 01:07:31,280 the movement is actually building 1705 01:07:36,069 --> 01:07:32,960 momentum 1706 01:07:37,589 --> 01:07:36,079 as we wait for these variables to to 1707 01:07:41,589 --> 01:07:37,599 change 1708 01:07:43,190 --> 01:07:41,599 so what's the time frame 1709 01:07:46,230 --> 01:07:43,200 now it can't there's no way it can 1710 01:07:49,270 --> 01:07:46,240 happen before may 1711 01:07:51,109 --> 01:07:49,280 probably not even before 1712 01:07:52,549 --> 01:07:51,119 june june might be the absolute soonest 1713 01:07:55,750 --> 01:07:52,559 at this point 1714 01:07:58,230 --> 01:07:55,760 july is definitely a possibility 1715 01:07:59,750 --> 01:07:58,240 so i'm looking in that june july time 1716 01:08:02,789 --> 01:07:59,760 frame 1717 01:08:04,470 --> 01:08:02,799 and i'll finish with this 1718 01:08:05,910 --> 01:08:04,480 if you're looking for one thing that 1719 01:08:07,829 --> 01:08:05,920 might be a 1720 01:08:09,349 --> 01:08:07,839 one next thing i've seen plenty of 1721 01:08:12,950 --> 01:08:09,359 things but one next thing 1722 01:08:16,149 --> 01:08:12,960 that might be a really strong tip off 1723 01:08:18,950 --> 01:08:16,159 that these hearings are coming 1724 01:08:21,110 --> 01:08:18,960 watch for a very significant 1725 01:08:24,149 --> 01:08:21,120 investigative piece to drop in the new 1726 01:08:27,269 --> 01:08:24,159 york times 1727 01:08:29,110 --> 01:08:27,279 okay as you know they helped to launch 1728 01:08:31,269 --> 01:08:29,120 this issue 1729 01:08:34,149 --> 01:08:31,279 uh or this new phase with those articles 1730 01:08:36,390 --> 01:08:34,159 in december of 2017. 1731 01:08:37,829 --> 01:08:36,400 they've had three years they haven't 1732 01:08:39,030 --> 01:08:37,839 done any significant follow-up they've 1733 01:08:40,550 --> 01:08:39,040 been a few articles 1734 01:08:42,470 --> 01:08:40,560 but they haven't done any investigative 1735 01:08:44,550 --> 01:08:42,480 follow-ups the new york times has had 1736 01:08:46,070 --> 01:08:44,560 three years to pick any aspect of this 1737 01:08:47,430 --> 01:08:46,080 field this issue rather 1738 01:08:49,110 --> 01:08:47,440 and and and put some serious 1739 01:08:51,030 --> 01:08:49,120 investigative reporters on it 1740 01:08:53,430 --> 01:08:51,040 and dig and come up with some 1741 01:08:55,430 --> 01:08:53,440 interesting stuff 1742 01:08:57,430 --> 01:08:55,440 i think they have done it and i think 1743 01:08:59,269 --> 01:08:57,440 they've got some reports ready to go 1744 01:09:00,470 --> 01:08:59,279 and the question is when do they launch 1745 01:09:02,789 --> 01:09:00,480 them 1746 01:09:04,950 --> 01:09:02,799 uh if one of those big reports turns up 1747 01:09:08,390 --> 01:09:04,960 in the new york times that will be 1748 01:09:11,749 --> 01:09:08,400 everyone's i think notice 1749 01:09:22,010 --> 01:09:11,759 that the hearing process is still 1750 01:09:22,020 --> 01:09:32,709 [Music] 1751 01:09:32,719 --> 01:09:46,070 it wasn't
