back to the UFO Rabbit Hole 31 00:01:37,850 --> 00:01:36,299 podcast I'm your host Kelly Chase 32 00:01:40,850 --> 00:01:37,860 as I'm sure most of you are already 33 00:01:43,010 --> 00:01:40,860 aware we are just a few days away from a 34 00:01:45,350 --> 00:01:43,020 major milestone in the fight for UFO 35 00:01:47,810 --> 00:01:45,360 transparency with a hearing set to take 36 00:01:49,730 --> 00:01:47,820 place in the house next week we've seen 37 00:01:51,710 --> 00:01:49,740 startling progress over the past few 38 00:01:53,990 --> 00:01:51,720 weeks with regards to elected officials 39 00:01:56,270 --> 00:01:54,000 speaking openly about the seriousness 40 00:01:59,090 --> 00:01:56,280 and the urgency of the allegations made 41 00:02:01,130 --> 00:01:59,100 by various UFO whistleblowers who have 42 00:02:03,649 --> 00:02:01,140 already spoken under oath to Congress 43 00:02:06,709 --> 00:02:03,659 and with a new hearing date set for next 44 00:02:07,969 --> 00:02:06,719 week it certainly feels like the dam is 45 00:02:09,949 --> 00:02:07,979 beginning to break 46 00:02:12,350 --> 00:02:09,959 and with this momentum has come a 47 00:02:14,630 --> 00:02:12,360 certain frenetic energy confirmation 48 00:02:17,869 --> 00:02:14,640 bias and emotions are high while good 49 00:02:20,210 --> 00:02:17,879 quality new information has been low and 50 00:02:22,610 --> 00:02:20,220 into that space has arisen an escalating 51 00:02:25,309 --> 00:02:22,620 wave of wild news stories and theories 52 00:02:27,110 --> 00:02:25,319 fueled by a toxic combination of 53 00:02:29,630 --> 00:02:27,120 opportunistic trolls looking for their 54 00:02:31,610 --> 00:02:29,640 72 hours of Reddit Fame and more 55 00:02:33,650 --> 00:02:31,620 vulnerable folks who have a hard time 56 00:02:36,470 --> 00:02:33,660 separating out their own head cannon 57 00:02:39,229 --> 00:02:36,480 from the facts in short it's been Wild 58 00:02:41,270 --> 00:02:39,239 on UFO Twitter these last few weeks and 59 00:02:43,190 --> 00:02:41,280 so I've been endeavoring to protect my 60 00:02:44,990 --> 00:02:43,200 peace and mind my business until there 61 00:02:47,630 --> 00:02:45,000 was something of substance to comment on 62 00:02:49,309 --> 00:02:47,640 and so frankly I wasn't expecting to do 63 00:02:51,350 --> 00:02:49,319 an episode on the lead up to the 64 00:02:52,430 --> 00:02:51,360 hearings because I didn't want to add to 65 00:02:54,290 --> 00:02:52,440 the noise 66 00:02:56,030 --> 00:02:54,300 but all that changed on Thursday morning 67 00:02:58,490 --> 00:02:56,040 with a press conference about the 68 00:02:59,990 --> 00:02:58,500 upcoming hearing as expected the 69 00:03:02,270 --> 00:03:00,000 witnesses for the hearing were announced 70 00:03:04,309 --> 00:03:02,280 during this press conference what wasn't 71 00:03:06,650 --> 00:03:04,319 expected were the stunning allegations 72 00:03:09,170 --> 00:03:06,660 made by a bipartisan group of House 73 00:03:11,270 --> 00:03:09,180 Representatives about the extreme levels 74 00:03:13,070 --> 00:03:11,280 of pushback in stonewalling that they 75 00:03:14,930 --> 00:03:13,080 have encountered while trying to do 76 00:03:17,030 --> 00:03:14,940 their jobs and investigating the claims 77 00:03:19,970 --> 00:03:17,040 made by whistleblowers regarding secret 78 00:03:22,250 --> 00:03:19,980 UFO crash retrieval programs the 79 00:03:24,470 --> 00:03:22,260 significance of what's being alleged by 80 00:03:26,930 --> 00:03:24,480 members of Congress as we head into next 81 00:03:29,030 --> 00:03:26,940 week's historic hearings really can't be 82 00:03:30,710 --> 00:03:29,040 overstated and I think it's important 83 00:03:33,050 --> 00:03:30,720 that we take some time to talk about 84 00:03:34,970 --> 00:03:33,060 what it all might mean and what we can 85 00:03:37,009 --> 00:03:34,980 expect both from next week's hearings 86 00:03:40,070 --> 00:03:37,019 and from the ongoing disclosure movement 87 00:03:41,630 --> 00:03:40,080 in the months ahead so I promise that I 88 00:03:43,430 --> 00:03:41,640 will get part three of the waking up 89 00:03:45,530 --> 00:03:43,440 inside the cave series to all of you as 90 00:03:47,390 --> 00:03:45,540 soon as possible but for right now 91 00:03:49,910 --> 00:03:47,400 especially with so many new people 92 00:03:51,530 --> 00:03:49,920 coming to this conversation every day I 93 00:03:52,550 --> 00:03:51,540 think it's important to put first things 94 00:03:53,990 --> 00:03:52,560 first 95 00:03:55,070 --> 00:03:54,000 so let's talk about this press 96 00:03:58,970 --> 00:03:55,080 conference 97 00:04:01,610 --> 00:03:58,980 congress's most outspoken advocates for 98 00:04:04,070 --> 00:04:01,620

press 176 00:07:09,950 --> 00:07:07,919 conference I want to take a minute to 177 00:07:11,870 --> 00:07:09,960 talk about the witnesses after 178 00:07:13,909 --> 00:07:11,880 timberchet teased last week that the 179 00:07:15,950 --> 00:07:13,919 hearing would feature an All-Star lineup 180 00:07:18,469 --> 00:07:15,960 of witnesses and that he planned to call 181 00:07:20,450 --> 00:07:18,479 as many as six of them there's been a 182 00:07:22,010 --> 00:07:20,460 ton of speculation about who these 183 00:07:24,589 --> 00:07:22,020 Witnesses might be 184 00:07:26,809 --> 00:07:24,599 obviously grush has always been presumed 185 00:07:29,150 --> 00:07:26,819 to be one of the witnesses but in light 186 00:07:31,010 --> 00:07:29,160 of Marco Rubio's recent Revelation that 187 00:07:33,050 --> 00:07:31,020 more high-ranking whistleblowers with 188 00:07:35,749 --> 00:07:33,060 first-hand knowledge of special access 189 00:07:38,210 --> 00:07:35,759 crash retrieval programs had spoken to 190 00:07:41,029 --> 00:07:38,220 Congress and corroborated grush's claims 191 00:07:42,770 --> 00:07:41,039 many had been hoping to see one or more 192 00:07:45,050 --> 00:07:42,780 of these individuals go on the record 193 00:07:47,510 --> 00:07:45,060 with the American public other names 194 00:07:49,550 --> 00:07:47,520 were being tossed around as well in 195 00:07:52,189 --> 00:07:49,560 particular former atip director Lou 196 00:07:54,529 --> 00:07:52,199 Elizondo who tweeted that he would be in 197 00:07:56,450 --> 00:07:54,539 DC later this month in short 198 00:07:58,550 --> 00:07:56,460 expectations around who might be 199 00:08:00,230 --> 00:07:58,560 testifying have been running High 200 00:08:02,210 --> 00:08:00,240 so when the Witnesses were announced 201 00:08:04,610 --> 00:08:02,220 there were inevitably a lot of people 202 00:08:06,589 --> 00:08:04,620 expressing that they felt let down and 203 00:08:08,990 --> 00:08:06,599 even outright concerned about the names 204 00:08:11,270 --> 00:08:09,000 that were given and the usual voices 205 00:08:12,890 --> 00:08:11,280 from the debunker crowd were quick to 206 00:08:14,570 --> 00:08:12,900 claim that this was evidence that the 207 00:08:17,330 --> 00:08:14,580 case made by the whistleblowers wasn't 208 00:08:19,969 --> 00:08:17,340 that strong after all if it's a slam 209 00:08:22,430 --> 00:08:19,979 dunk why not put them on the stand 210 00:08:25,189 --> 00:08:22,440 obviously the importance of this hearing 211 00:08:27,290 --> 00:08:25,199 can't be overstated it took us 80 years 212 00:08:29,390 --> 00:08:27,300 to get to this point and there's a 213 00:08:31,189 --> 00:08:29,400 genuine fear in the community especially 214 00:08:33,230 --> 00:08:31,199 among those of us who are well versed in 215 00:08:35,510 --> 00:08:33,240 the history of this field that if we 216 00:08:38,029 --> 00:08:35,520 miss this opportunity to drag the truth 217 00:08:40,190 --> 00:08:38,039 about UFOs into the light that it could 218 00:08:43,310 --> 00:08:40,200 be buried for another 80 years or more 219 00:08:44,570 --> 00:08:43,320 the stakes are high and so I do think 220 00:08:46,550 --> 00:08:44,580 that it's important for us to 221 00:08:48,410 --> 00:08:46,560 acknowledge and understand the concerns 222 00:08:50,449 --> 00:08:48,420 that have been raised and if we're going 223 00:08:52,009 --> 00:08:50,459 to be objective we need to be able to 224 00:08:54,710 --> 00:08:52,019 ask ourselves the uncomfortable 225 00:08:56,690 --> 00:08:54,720 questions that inevitably arise 226 00:08:57,889 --> 00:08:56,700 so what is it exactly that has people 227 00:08:59,690 --> 00:08:57,899 concerned 228 00:09:01,790 --> 00:08:59,700 one of the main points of frustration 229 00:09:04,130 --> 00:09:01,800 for many in the community is that grush 230 00:09:05,930 --> 00:09:04,140 favor and graves are all individuals 231 00:09:07,790 --> 00:09:05,940 that we've heard from before 232 00:09:09,230 --> 00:09:07,800 gresh has obviously been in the media 233 00:09:11,570 --> 00:09:09,240 over the last month with his claims 234 00:09:14,570 --> 00:09:11,580 about alleged secret UFO crash retrieval 235 00:09:16,370 --> 00:09:14,580 programs David fraver and Ryan graves 236 00:09:18,170 --> 00:09:16,380 are both well known in the UFO Community 237 00:09:20,090 --> 00:09:18,180 having been featured in multiple 238 00:09:22,790 --> 00:09:20,100 documentaries television shows and 239 00:09:25,250 --> 00:09:22,800 appearing on podcasts so the question is 240 00:09:27,230 --> 00:09:25,260 will their testimonies add to the 241 00:09:29,570 --> 00:09:27,240 conversation or will it just be more of 242 00:09:31,490 --> 00:09:29,580 the same another concern that's been 243 00:09:33,470 --> 00:09:31,500 raised is that none of these Witnesses 244 00:09:35,810 --> 00:09:33,480 has first-hand knowledge of the alleged 245 00:09:37,550 --> 00:09:35,820 crash retrieval programs as much as 246 00:09:40,130 --> 00:09:37,560 people have been excited for grush to 247 00:09:41,509 --> 00:09:40,140 testify in this hearing the reality is 248 00:09:43,370 --> 00:09:41,519 that he's only claimed to have 249 00:09:46,009 --> 00:09:43,380 second-hand knowledge of these alleged 250 00:09:47,690 --> 00:09:46,019 programs The Hope was that some of the 251 00:09:49,850 --> 00:09:47,700 other whistleblowers with first-hand 252 00:09:52,070 --> 00:09:49,860 knowledge would be stepping forward to 253 00:09:53,570 --> 00:09:52,080 corroborate his story and it feels 254 00:09:55,009 --> 00:09:53,580 unlikely that we could gain much 255 00:09:57,470 --> 00:09:55,019 traction with this current push for 256 00:10:00,050 --> 00:09:57,480 transparency if we don't at some point 257 00:10:02,630 --> 00:10:00,060 get that corroboration so the question 258 00:10:04,910 --> 00:10:02,640 is why would they wait 259 00:10:06,590 --> 00:10:04,920 for their parts fraver and Graves have 260 00:10:08,930 --> 00:10:06,600 never indicated that they had knowledge 261 00:10:10,610 --> 00:10:08,940 of Crash retrieval programs at all they 262 00:10:13,070 --> 00:10:10,620 were both present for Infamous and 263 00:10:15,050 --> 00:10:13,080 well-documented UAP sightings and both 264 00:10:17,269 --> 00:10:15,060 have spoken out to advocate for greater 265 00:10:19,070 --> 00:10:17,279 transparency around the issue but it 266 00:10:20,329 --> 00:10:19,080 seems unlikely that anything that they 267 00:10:22,490 --> 00:10:20,339 would have to share in the hearings 268 00:10:24,470 --> 00:10:22,500 would be able to directly corroborate 269 00:10:27,590 --> 00:10:24,480 grush's specific claims about these 270 00:10:29,389 --> 00:10:27,600 programs so the question is why aren't 271 00:10:30,829 --> 00:10:29,399 they calling Witnesses who can move this 272 00:10:32,990 --> 00:10:30,839 story forward 273 00:10:34,990 --> 00:10:33,000 and perhaps the greatest concern has 274 00:10:37,790 --> 00:10:35,000 been what happened to the whistleblowers 275 00:10:39,710 --> 00:10:37,800 just a couple of weeks ago Marco Rubio 276 00:10:41,389 --> 00:10:39,720 and others confirmed that multiple 277 00:10:43,130 --> 00:10:41,399 high-level whistleblowers with 278 00:10:45,590 --> 00:10:43,140 first-hand knowledge of these alleged 279 00:10:48,110 --> 00:10:45,600 secret programs had spoken to Congress 280 00:10:50,769 --> 00:10:48,120 and corroborated Russia's claims 281 00:10:53,329 --> 00:10:50,779 so the most glaring question of all is 282 00:10:54,710 --> 00:10:53,339 where are they why aren't they 283 00:10:56,810 --> 00:10:54,720 testifying 284 00:10:59,150 --> 00:10:56,820 and these are all extremely valid and 285 00:11:01,430 --> 00:10:59,160 important questions and to answer them 286 00:11:03,110 --> 00:11:01,440 we need to put all of this into context 287 00:11:04,970 --> 00:11:03,120 from what was said at the press 288 00:11:06,190 --> 00:11:04,980 conference to the recent developments 289 00:11:08,990 --> 00:11:06,200 we've been hearing out of Washington 290 00:11:11,269 --> 00:11:09,000 let's start by talking about the goal of 291 00:11:13,430 --> 00:11:11,279 this hearing and why Tim burchett says 292 00:11:15,650 --> 00:11:13,440 that this one is going to be different 293 00:11:19,069 --> 00:11:15,660 thus far we've had two public hearings 294 00:11:22,069 --> 00:11:19,079 on UFOs one in May of 2022 and one in 295 00:11:24,170 --> 00:11:22,079 April of 2023 and while both of those 296 00:11:26,329 --> 00:11:24,180 hearings marked major milestones in the 297 00:11:28,730 --> 00:11:26,339 push for disclosure neither of them did 298 00:11:30,350 --> 00:11:28,740 much to move the needle burchett said in 299 00:11:32,930 --> 00:11:30,360 Thursday's press conference that the 300 00:11:34,610 --> 00:11:32,940 goal is for this hearing to be different 301 00:11:36,829 --> 00:11:34,620 specifically he called out past 302 00:11:38,569 --> 00:11:36,839 Witnesses calling them bureaucrats from 303 00:11:40,670 --> 00:11:38,579 the Pentagon who answered every question 304 00:11:43,190 --> 00:11:40,680 with either I don't know or that's 305 00:11:44,870 --> 00:11:43,200 classified this hearing is going to be 306 00:11:46,910 --> 00:11:44,880 different he said we're going to have 307 00:11:49,310 --> 00:11:46,920 witnesses that can speak frankly to the 308 00:11:51,110 --> 00:11:49,320 public about their experiences 309 00:11:52,790 --> 00:11:51,120 another reason that these hearings are 310 00:11:54,530 --> 00:11:52,800 likely to be different is that they are 311 00:11:56,449 --> 00:11:54,540 taking place at a time when Congress is 312 00:11:58,730 --> 00:11:56,459 taking this issue seriously in a way 313 00:12:01,130 --> 00:11:58,740 that they frankly haven't before 314 00:12:02,870 --> 00:12:01,140 just in the last week Senate Majority 315 00:12:04,870 --> 00:12:02,880 Leader Chuck Schumer along with a 316 00:12:07,670 --> 00:12:04,880 bipartisan group of five Senators 317 00:12:09,829 --> 00:12:07,680 introduced new legislation intended to 318 00:12:11,690 --> 00:12:09,839 require greater transparency with regard 319 00:12:13,310 --> 00:12:11,700 to the UFO phenomenon 320 00:12:15,350 --> 00:12:13,320 clearly influenced by the recent 321 00:12:17,870 --> 00:12:15,360 whistleblower allegations by Gretch and 322 00:12:19,790 --> 00:12:17,880 others this bill goes as far as to 323 00:12:22,069 --> 00:12:19,800 suggest that the U.S government or 324 00:12:25,490 --> 00:12:22,079 private contractors May possess 325 00:12:28,310 --> 00:12:25,500 recovered UFOs and quote biological 326 00:12:29,569 --> 00:12:28,320 evidence of living or deceased non-human 327 00:12:31,370 --> 00:12:29,579 intelligence 328 00:12:33,470 --> 00:12:31,380 the legislation states that a 329 00:12:35,750 --> 00:12:33,480 comprehensive investigation has revealed 330 00:12:37,970 --> 00:12:35,760 numerous individuals and groups who 331 00:12:40,790 --> 00:12:37,980 claim knowledge of secret UAP related 332 00:12:42,710 --> 00:12:40,800 programs some lawmakers believe this 333 00:12:45,410 --> 00:12:42,720 points to the U.S government concealing 334 00:12:46,970 --> 00:12:45,420 substantial UAP information not just 335 00:12:48,889 --> 00:12:46,980 from the public but from the 336 00:12:51,829 --> 00:12:48,899 constitutionally required oversight of 337 00:12:53,509 --> 00:12:51,839 Congress to address this the proposed 338 00:12:55,850 --> 00:12:53,519 legislation calls for the establishment 339 00:12:58,850 --> 00:12:55,860 of an independent nine-member agency 340 00:13:02,389 --> 00:12:58,860 that would gather review and declassify 341 00:13:04,069 --> 00:13:02,399 UAP records all government UFO documents 342 00:13:06,530 --> 00:13:04,079 would be subject to immediate public 343 00:13:08,389 --> 00:13:06,540 disclosure if the bill passes 344 00:13:10,850 --> 00:13:08,399 the legislation goes beyond just 345 00:13:13,129 --> 00:13:10,860 transparency as it also stipulates that 346 00:13:15,590 --> 00:13:13,139 any recovered UFOs and non-human 347 00:13:17,810 --> 00:13:15,600 intelligence held by private entities 348 00:13:19,629 --> 00:13:17,820 must be transferred to the U.S 349 00:13:22,009 --> 00:13:19,639 government in the public interest 350 00:13:24,530 --> 00:13:22,019 additionally a quote controlled 351 00:13:26,329 --> 00:13:24,540 disclosure campaign Plan was introduced 352 00:13:28,250 --> 00:13:26,339 which would schedule the release of 353 00:13:30,110 --> 00:13:28,260 sensitive UAP documents with the 354 00:13:31,310 --> 00:13:30,120 president holding the final Authority on 355 00:13:33,949 --> 00:13:31,320 disclosure 356 00:13:36,350 --> 00:13:33,959 in short this is serious legislation 357 00:13:38,750 --> 00:13:36,360 being brought forward by a bipartisan 358 00:13:41,030 --> 00:13:38,760 group of senators who have created very 359 00:13:42,470 --> 00:13:41,040 pointed legislation in response to the 360 00:13:43,970 --> 00:13:42,480 information that's being brought to them 361 00:13:45,650 --> 00:13:43,980 by whistleblowers 362 00:13:47,690 --> 00:13:45,660 that's a level of Engagement and 363 00:13:49,129 --> 00:13:47,700 investment that we simply haven't seen 364 00:13:51,710 --> 00:13:49,139 from all but a handful of 365 00:13:54,290 --> 00:13:51,720 Representatives in Congress until now 366 00:13:56,150 --> 00:13:54,300 and so there's reason to hope that these 367 00:13:57,650 --> 00:13:56,160 hearings could have the kind of impacts 368 00:13:59,990 --> 00:13:57,660 that could really move the needle on 369 00:14:02,269 --> 00:14:00,000 disclosure but if we're seeing this kind 370 00:14:03,710 --> 00:14:02,279 of momentum from Congress then why 371 00:14:06,410 --> 00:14:03,720 aren't we seeing more whistleblowers 372 00:14:08,210 --> 00:14:06,420 testifying after all aren't there 373 00:14:09,170 --> 00:14:08,220 supposed to be whistleblower Protections 374 00:14:11,810 --> 00:14:09,180 in place 375 00:14:14,030 --> 00:14:11,820 in December Landmark legislation was 376 00:14:16,610 --> 00:14:14,040 passed as part of the 2023 National 377 00:14:18,650 --> 00:14:16,620 Defense authorization act which offered 378 00:14:20,090 --> 00:14:18,660 protection to UFO whistleblowers who 379 00:14:22,490 --> 00:14:20,100 wanted to come forward to talk to 380 00:14:24,350 --> 00:14:22,500 Congress about what they know the law 381 00:14:26,150 --> 00:14:24,360 Shields these individuals from legal 382 00:14:28,069 --> 00:14:26,160 action that could arise from breaking 383 00:14:30,230 --> 00:14:28,079 confidentiality agreements related to 384 00:14:32,389 --> 00:14:30,240 these secrets and it covers both 385 00:14:34,490 --> 00:14:32,399 government employees and people working 386 00:14:36,889 --> 00:14:34,500 for private companies involved in UAP 387 00:14:38,389 --> 00:14:36,899 research and development one part of the 388 00:14:40,250 --> 00:14:38,399 law creates a safe way for 389 00:14:42,170 --> 00:14:40,260 whistleblowers to share information with 390 00:14:44,509 --> 00:14:42,180 members of Congress who have a legal 391 00:14:46,250 --> 00:14:44,519 right to this knowledge the law also 392 00:14:48,050 --> 00:14:46,260 includes a provision that protects 393 00:14:50,030 --> 00:14:48,060 whistleblowers from retaliation or 394 00:14:51,949 --> 00:14:50,040 punishment such as losing their jobs or 395 00:14:53,090 --> 00:14:51,959 security clearances for revealing this 396 00:14:55,250 --> 00:14:53,100 information 397 00:14:57,769 --> 00:14:55,260 and yet according to timberjet and 398 00:14:59,569 --> 00:14:57,779 others in Congress whistleblowers are 399 00:15:01,970 --> 00:14:59,579 still dealing with intimidation and 400 00:15:03,650 --> 00:15:01,980 threats in Thursday's press conference 401 00:15:05,269 --> 00:15:03,660 he alleged that whistleblowers had 402 00:15:07,490 --> 00:15:05,279 backed out of testifying after the 403 00:15:09,290 --> 00:15:07,500 Pentagon opened inquiries into them that 404 00:15:11,629 --> 00:15:09,300 could threaten their jobs and clearances 405 00:15:13,730 --> 00:15:11,639 he also alleged that so-called 406 00:15:15,769 --> 00:15:13,740 debriefings of whistleblowers who had 407 00:15:18,710 --> 00:15:15,779 spoken to Congress involved eight-hour 408 00:15:21,530 --> 00:15:18,720 long interrogations and later on news 409 00:15:23,629 --> 00:15:21,540 Nation he told Chris Cuomo that some 410 00:15:25,790 --> 00:15:23,639 Pilots had destroyed evidence after 411 00:15:28,069 -->

00:18:33,890 --> 00:18:31,080 are made by the FCC other restriction 492 00:18:39,110 --> 00:18:36,470 first of all if there's truly nothing to 493 00:18:41,330 --> 00:18:39,120 see here folks with regard to UFOs and a 494 00:18:43,010 --> 00:18:41,340 potential government cover-up then why 495 00:18:45,350 --> 00:18:43,020 are whistleblowers being retaliated 496 00:18:46,970 --> 00:18:45,360 against for speaking up the fact that 497 00:18:49,010 --> 00:18:46,980 they are being silenced after already 498 00:18:51,169 --> 00:18:49,020 speaking to Congress speaks to a much 499 00:18:54,049 --> 00:18:51,179 larger pattern of Deceit 500 00:18:56,630 --> 00:18:54,059 secondly and of even greater concern is 501 00:18:58,789 --> 00:18:56,640 that if these allegations are true then 502 00:19:00,890 --> 00:18:58,799 it means that there is an element within 503 00:19:03,710 --> 00:19:00,900 the Pentagon that is operating Above the 504 00:19:06,529 --> 00:19:03,720 Law above the oversight of Congress and 505 00:19:08,210 --> 00:19:06,539 therefore above the Constitution not 506 00:19:10,909 --> 00:19:08,220 only does this element have no problem 507 00:19:13,070 --> 00:19:10,919 with brazenly disobeying the law but the 508 00:19:14,810 --> 00:19:13,080 whistleblowers who have come forward not 509 00:19:16,970 --> 00:19:14,820 only deem the threats against them to be 510 00:19:19,070 --> 00:19:16,980 credible but they seemingly don't 511 00:19:21,110 --> 00:19:19,080 believe that Congress currently has the 512 00:19:23,510 --> 00:19:21,120 ability to protect them 513 00:19:26,510 --> 00:19:23,520 and those fears at least at this point 514 00:19:28,430 --> 00:19:26,520 don't appear to be unfounded Congress is 515 00:19:30,409 --> 00:19:28,440 currently facing substantial obstacles 516 00:19:32,270 --> 00:19:30,419 and stonewalling in their efforts to 517 00:19:34,730 --> 00:19:32,280 investigate whistleblower claims related 518 00:19:37,250 --> 00:19:34,740 to UFOs and alleged crash retrieval 519 00:19:39,169 --> 00:19:37,260 programs in Thursday's press conference 520 00:19:41,570 --> 00:19:39,179 Tim birchett alleged they'd receive 521 00:19:43,669 --> 00:19:41,580 pushback from members of Congress the 522 00:19:46,970 --> 00:19:43,679 Pentagon members of the intelligence 523 00:19:48,289 --> 00:19:46,980 community and even NASA burchett alleges 524 00:19:50,570 --> 00:19:48,299 that the opposition that they are 525 00:19:52,070 --> 00:19:50,580 encountering is so considerable that its 526 00:19:53,390 --> 00:19:52,080 impeding progress on legislative 527 00:19:55,669 --> 00:19:53,400 measures 528 00:19:57,350 --> 00:19:55,679 one such instance is the failed attempt 529 00:19:59,090 --> 00:19:57,360 to introduce an amendment that would 530 00:20:01,610 --> 00:19:59,100 have mandated the Federal Aviation 531 00:20:03,830 --> 00:20:01,620 Administration to report sightings of 532 00:20:04,730 --> 00:20:03,840 UAP by commercial airline pilots to 533 00:20:07,190 --> 00:20:04,740 Congress 534 00:20:08,810 --> 00:20:07,200 the amendment met significant resistance 535 00:20:10,549 --> 00:20:08,820 and burchett claims that it was 536 00:20:11,630 --> 00:20:10,559 ultimately shut down by the intelligence 537 00:20:13,190 --> 00:20:11,640 community 538 00:20:16,190 --> 00:20:13,200 in Thursday's press conference 539 00:20:17,450 --> 00:20:16,200 representative Anna Paulina Luna also 540 00:20:19,070 --> 00:20:17,460 alleged that they have faced 541 00:20:21,710 --> 00:20:19,080 considerable resistance from military 542 00:20:24,169 --> 00:20:21,720 officials when seeking details on uaps 543 00:20:26,330 --> 00:20:24,179 in response to whistleblower allegations 544 00:20:28,130 --> 00:20:26,340 the Pentagon reportedly thwarted an 545 00:20:30,350 --> 00:20:28,140 arranged meeting with Pilots about their 546 00:20:32,330 --> 00:20:30,360 UAP encounters at a Florida Air Force 547 00:20:34,630 --> 00:20:32,340 Base where members of Congress were 548 00:20:37,610 --> 00:20:34,640 promised access to sensitive information 549 00:20:39,169 --> 00:20:37,620 Luna made a firm stand stating if the 550 00:20:40,549 --> 00:20:39,179 department of the Air Force if the 551 00:20:42,590 --> 00:20:40,559 Pentagon thinks that they're above 552 00:20:43,549 --> 00:20:42,600 Congress they have something else coming 553 00:20:46,130 --> 00:20:43,559 to them 554 00:20:48,470 --> 00:20:46,140 all right so now that we have all that 555 00:20:50,870 --> 00:20:48,480 important context let's talk about what 556 00:20:52,549 --> 00:20:50,880 might be going on here we know that 557 00:20:54,289 --> 00:20:52,559 several high-ranking whistleblowers with 558 00:20:56,210 --> 00:20:54,299 first-hand knowledge of Crash retrieval 559 00:20:58,310 --> 00:20:56,220 programs have already spoken to Congress 560 00:21:00,110 --> 00:20:58,320 and corroborated the claims made last 561 00:21:02,029 --> 00:21:00,120 month by David grush 562 00:21:04,310 --> 00:21:02,039 this information was compelling enough 563 00:21:06,650 --> 00:21:04,320 to prompt an exceedingly rare bipartisan 564 00:21:08,870 --> 00:21:06,660 push for greater transparency with the 565 00:21:10,970 --> 00:21:08,880 introduction of new legislation and the 566 00:21:13,130 --> 00:21:10,980 scheduling of next week's hearing 567 00:21:14,870 --> 00:21:13,140 however in investigating these claims 568 00:21:16,730 --> 00:21:14,880 members of Congress have experienced 569 00:21:18,350 --> 00:21:16,740 significant pushback and whistleblowers 570 00:21:20,450 --> 00:21:18,360 continue to be intimidated and 571 00:21:22,070 --> 00:21:20,460 retaliated against despite the 572 00:21:25,730 --> 00:21:22,080 legislation in place that's meant to 573 00:21:28,010 --> 00:21:25,740 protect them if true this represents a 574 00:21:30,409 --> 00:21:28,020 clear and existential threat to both our 575 00:21:32,750 --> 00:21:30,419 country and to our democracy 576 00:21:34,789 --> 00:21:32,760 but Congress is facing an even bigger 577 00:21:36,890 --> 00:21:34,799 Challenge and it's one that they're 578 00:21:39,230 --> 00:21:36,900 going to need to overcome before they 579 00:21:41,330 --> 00:21:39,240 have a prayer of taking on this shadowy 580 00:21:43,190 --> 00:21:41,340 Rogue element within the government that 581 00:21:44,810 --> 00:21:43,200 has managed to evade constitutionally 582 00:21:47,090 --> 00:21:44,820 required oversight 583 00:21:49,730 --> 00:21:47,100 and that problem is that for the vast 584 00:21:52,789 --> 00:21:49,740 majority of Americans this story isn't 585 00:21:54,770 --> 00:21:52,799 even on their radar in an era defined by 586 00:21:56,750 --> 00:21:54,780 unprecedented challenges the challenge 587 00:21:59,090 --> 00:21:56,760 currently before us might be the 588 00:22:01,250 --> 00:21:59,100 greatest we faced as a nation so far 589 00:22:03,409 --> 00:22:01,260 and the reality is that Congress is 590 00:22:05,630 --> 00:22:03,419 going to need the collective will of the 591 00:22:07,610 --> 00:22:05,640 American people behind them if they're 592 00:22:09,950 --> 00:22:07,620 going to have any hope of dragging these 593 00:22:11,450 --> 00:22:09,960 secret programs and the truth about UFOs 594 00:22:13,850 --> 00:22:11,460 into the light 595 00:22:16,190 --> 00:22:13,860 but again most people have no idea this 596 00:22:18,350 --> 00:22:16,200 is even happening and sure that I don't 597 00:22:20,149 --> 00:22:18,360 need to tell that to any of you I hear 598 00:22:22,010 --> 00:22:20,159 from listeners and other people in the 599 00:22:24,169 --> 00:22:22,020 community every day and although our 600 00:22:26,149 --> 00:22:24,179 numbers are growing rapidly the thing I 601 00:22:28,610 --> 00:22:26,159 hear most from people is how frustrating 602 00:22:30,409 --> 00:22:28,620 and isolating it can be when most of the 603 00:22:32,390 --> 00:22:30,419 people in your life are not ready to 604 00:22:34,669 --> 00:22:32,400 have a discussion about the presence of 605 00:22:35,510 --> 00:22:34,679 UFOs and non-human Intelligence on this 606 00:22:38,330 --> 00:22:35,520 planet 607 00:22:39,590 --> 00:22:38,340 and as frustrating as that can be I 608 00:22:41,090 --> 00:22:39,600 don't think that we can really blame 609 00:22:42,649 --> 00:22:41,100 people for their lack of interest and 610 00:22:44,930 --> 00:22:42,659 willingness to engage on this subject 611 00:22:47,810 --> 00:22:44,940 for our entire lives we've been told 612 00:22:49,789 --> 00:22:47,820 that UFOs aren't real that stories about 613 00:22:51,890 --> 00:22:49,799 contact with non-human intelligence were 614 00:22:53,930 --> 00:22:51,900 ridiculous and that anyone who 615 00:22:56,630 --> 00:22:53,940 entertained these ideas as being in any 616 00:22:58,909 --> 00:22:56,640 way legitimate is either mentally ill or 617 00:23:00,830 --> 00:22:58,919 a liar and it's not like people don't 618 00:23:03,110 --> 00:23:00,840 have any other existential threats on 619 00:23:04,909 --> 00:23:03,120 their plates right now anxieties over 620 00:23:07,010 --> 00:23:04,919 everything from the economy to the 621 00:23:09,529 --> 00:23:07,020 election to nuclear reward climate 622 00:23:11,870 --> 00:23:09,539 change to the rise of AI are at all time 623 00:23:13,730 --> 00:23:11,880 highs it's not surprising that people 624 00:23:14,930 --> 00:23:13,740 aren't exactly rushing to take this 625 00:23:17,330 --> 00:23:14,940 seriously 626 00:23:19,010 --> 00:23:17,340 but it leaves Congress in a serious bind 627 00:23:20,149 --> 00:23:19,020 in terms of making progress in their 628 00:23:22,610 --> 00:23:20,159 investigation 629 00:23:24,830 --> 00:23:22,620 how do you talk about secret UFO crash 630 00:23:27,590 --> 00:23:24,840 retrieval programs and the dangers of 631 00:23:29,570 --> 00:23:27,600 asymmetric technological advantages with 632 00:23:31,789 --> 00:23:29,580 people who don't believe that UFOs exist 633 00:23:34,250 --> 00:23:31,799 and who carry a bunch of inaccurate 634 00:23:36,590 --> 00:23:34,260 ideas instilled by the media about what 635 00:23:38,270 --> 00:23:36,600 they might be even if they did 636 00:23:40,669 --> 00:23:38,280 imagine you're a member of Congress 637 00:23:42,649 --> 00:23:40,679 who's trying to game this out what would 638 00:23:44,690 --> 00:23:42,659 you do given this set of challenges and 639 00:23:45,710 --> 00:23:44,700 constraints how would you move the ball 640 00:23:47,570 --> 00:23:45,720 forward 641 00:23:49,669 --> 00:23:47,580 when you start to think about it this 642 00:23:51,169 --> 00:23:49,679 way the choices being made about the 643 00:23:53,810 --> 00:23:51,179 witnesses for next week's hearings 644 00:23:56,210 --> 00:23:53,820 suddenly start to make a lot more sense 645 00:23:57,890 --> 00:23:56,220 the whistleblowers besides Rush aren't 646 00:23:59,570 --> 00:23:57,900 in play right now and they are likely 647 00:24:02,210 --> 00:23:59,580 going to need more assurances to come 648 00:24:04,070 --> 00:24:02,220 forward publicly that means that they're 649 00:24:06,590 --> 00:24:04,080 going to be looking at Congress and to 650 00:24:08,870 --> 00:24:06,600 the American public to see how these 651 00:24:11,029 --> 00:24:08,880 hearings are received if these 652 00:24:13,010 --> 00:24:11,039 Revelations are met with crickets and if 653 00:24:14,390 --> 00:24:13,020 Congress isn't able to signal that they 654 00:24:15,890 --> 00:24:14,400 are going to be able to hold those 655 00:24:18,409 --> 00:24:15,900 retaliating against whistleblowers 656 00:24:20,390 --> 00:24:18,419 accountable then there is no motivation 657 00:24:22,250 --> 00:24:20,400 for them to come forward they'd be 658 00:24:23,990 --> 00:24:22,260 risking their careers and perhaps even 659 00:24:25,549 --> 00:24:24,000 their lives for an initiative that's 660 00:24:28,010 --> 00:24:25,559 destined to fail 661 00:24:30,950 --> 00:24:28,020 so Congress needs to do two things with 662 00:24:33,049 --> 00:24:30,960 this hearing first they need to make as 663 00:24:35,210 --> 00:24:33,059 much noise as possible and do everything 664 00:24:37,310 --> 00:24:35,220 in their power to get the reality of the 665 00:24:38,510 --> 00:24:37,320 UFO phenomenon on the radar of the 666 00:24:40,850 --> 00:24:38,520 American people 667 00:24:42,770 --> 00:24:40,860 and secondly they need to show that 668 00:24:44,630 --> 00:24:42,780 there is enough Collective will within 669 00:24:46,370 --> 00:24:44,640 Congress to effectively pursue this 670 00:24:48,710 --> 00:24:46,380 investigation and to hold people 671 00:24:51,289 --> 00:24:48,720 accountable in terms of Point number one 672 00:24:53,990 --> 00:24:51,299 I'd argue that David grosh David fraver 673 00:24:56,450 --> 00:24:54,000 and Ryan graves are the right witnesses 674 00:24:58,310 --> 00:24:56,460 to be taking the stand next week and I 675 00:24:59,870 --> 00:24:58,320 think that remains true even if the 676 00:25:01,010 --> 00:24:59,880 other whistleblowers were willing to 677 00:25:03,590 --> 00:25:01,020 participate 678 00:25:05,210 --> 00:25:03,600 hear me out while it's true that the 679 00:25:06,950 --> 00:25:05,220 legislation that was passed in December 680 00:25:08,270 --> 00:25:06,960 makes it possible for whistleblowers to 681 00:25:11,149 --> 00:25:08,280 come forward with what they know to 682 00:25:13,010 --> 00:25:11,159 Congress what it doesn't do is allow for 683 00:25:15,049 --> 00:25:13,020 people with classified information about 684 00:25:17,090 --> 00:25:15,059 special access programs to share that 685 00:25:19,130 --> 00:25:17,100 information directly with the public 686 00:25:21,409 --> 00:25:19,140 as Tim burchett said in Thursday's press 687 00:25:23,149 --> 00:25:21,419 conference it does them no good to put 688 00:25:25,970 --> 00:25:23,159 people on the stand who can only answer 689 00:25:27,950 --> 00:25:25,980 questions with its classified that would 690 00:25:30,169 --> 00:25:27,960 only further money the waters and would 691 00:25:32,390 --> 00:25:30,179 likely fail to get anyone's attention 692 00:25:34,549 --> 00:25:32,400 what we need right now are people who 693 00:25:37,310 --> 00:25:34,559 can speak frankly and openly to the 694 00:25:39,169 --> 00:25:37,320 American people about what they know and 695 00:25:41,330 --> 00:25:39,179 while the secret UFO crash retrieval 696 00:25:43,789 --> 00:25:41,340 programs are the primary focus of the 697 00:25:45,890 --> 00:25:43,799 larger investigation what's most 698 00:25:47,750 --> 00:25:45,900 important in terms of this first hearing 699 00:25:50,090 --> 00:25:47,760 is that the case is made to the public 700 00:25:51,649 --> 00:25:50,100 that UFOs are real and that the 701 00:25:53,210 --> 00:25:51,659 government has been engaged in an 702 00:25:54,769 --> 00:25:53,220 extensive cover-up 703 00:25:57,230 --> 00:25:54,779 unlike the whistleblowers that have 704 00:25:59,570 --> 00:25:57,240 spoken to Congress David fraver and Ryan 705 00:26:01,850 --> 00:25:59,580 graves are able to talk about what they 706 00:26:04,430 --> 00:26:01,860 know they have first-hand experience 707 00:26:06,710 --> 00:26:04,440 with uaps interfering with U.S military 708 00:26:09,649 --> 00:26:06,720 operations and with how the government 709 00:26:11,570 --> 00:26:09,659 responds to such incidents and best of 710 00:26:13,490 --> 00:26:11,580 all the incidents that they witnessed 711 00:26:15,710 --> 00:26:13,500 and the associated videos that have been 712 00:26:18,350 --> 00:26:15,720 released to the public aren't classified 713 00:26:20,390 --> 00:26:18,360 so they can go on the record 714 00:26:21,769 --> 00:26:20,400 for members of the UFO Community who've 715 00:26:24,110 --> 00:26:21,779 been following this story for a while 716 00:26:26,570 --> 00:26:24,120 fraver engraves are known quantities 717 00:26:28,070 --> 00:26:26,580 we've heard their stories but it's 718 00:26:31,250 --> 00:26:28,080 important to remember that most 719 00:26:32,630 --> 00:26:31,260 Americans have it and if they have they 720 00:26:35,149 --> 00:26:32,640 certainly haven't heard them in the 721 00:26:36,950 --> 00:26:35,159 context of a congressional hearing the 722 00:26:38,930 --> 00:26:36,960 accounts of these two men are compelling 723 00:26:41,570 --> 00:26:38,940 and important to laying the necessary 724 00:26:43,909 --> 00:26:41,580 foundation for this larger conversation 725 00:26:45,529 --> 00:26:43,919 and as for David Crush as we discussed 726 00:26:47,330 --> 00:26:45,539 in the initial episode about his 727 00:26:49,850 --> 00:26:47,340 whistleblower allegations which you can 728 00:26:51,710 --> 00:26:49,860 find linked in the episode brief he is 729 00:26:53,870 --> 00:26:51,720 uniquely positioned to speak frankly 730 00:26:56,210 --> 00:26:53,880 with the American people as well 731 00:26:58,250 --> 00:26:56,220 a few months ago grush submitted his 732 00:27:00,409 --> 00:26:58,260 statements regarding information that he 733 00:27:02,149 --> 00:27:00,419 received about secret UFO crash 734 00:27:04,130 --> 00:27:02,159 retrieval programs operating without 735 00:27:07,070 --> 00:27:04,140 oversight to the Department of Defense 736 00:27:08,090 --> 00:27:07,080 and in April the dod cleared his 737 00:27:12,289 --> 00:27:08,100 statements 738 00:27:14,049 --> 00:27:12,299 the dod wasn't saying that they approved 739 00:27:16,430 --> 00:27:14,059 of his statements or that they were true 740 00:27:17,690 --> 00:27:16,440 it just means that nothing in the 741 00:27:19,669 --> 00:27:17,700 statements that he intended to make 742 00:27:20,930 --> 00:27:19,679 publicly were a threat to National 743 00:27:22,610 --> 00:27:20,940 Security 744 00:27:24,649 --> 00:27:22,620 now this was a brilliant move on 745 00:27:27,350 --> 00:27:24,659 Russia's part because it forced the dod 746 00:27:29,690 --> 00:27:27,360 to make a tough choice they could choose 747 00:27:31,310 --> 00:27:29,700 not to clear his statements but in doing 748 00:27:32,510 --> 00:27:31,320 so they would have had to say that his 749 00:27:35,149 --> 00:27:32,520 statements were a threat to National 750 00:27:36,169 --> 00:27:35,159 Security if they're not true then how 751 00:27:38,750 --> 00:27:36,179 could they be a threat to National 752 00:27:40,490 --> 00:27:38,760 Security so the Pentagon instead chose 753 00:27:42,950 --> 00:27:40,500 to clear his statements which allows 754 00:27:45,110 --> 00:27:42,960 them to maintain plausible deniability 755 00:27:47,210 --> 00:27:45,120 but it also gives gresh the ability to 756 00:27:49,310 --> 00:27:47,220 speak openly about the allegations that 757 00:27:51,049 --> 00:27:49,320 he had cleared by them and for those 758 00:27:53,029 --> 00:27:51,059 that continue to Grumble the grush 759 00:27:54,950 --> 00:27:53,039 doesn't have first-hand information of 760 00:27:56,510 --> 00:27:54,960 these crash retrieval programs and was 761 00:27:58,970 --> 00:27:56,520 only told about them by intelligence 762 00:28:00,409 --> 00:27:58,980 officials who were in these programs I 763 00:28:02,450 --> 00:28:00,419 think it's important to point out that 764 00:28:04,610 --> 00:28:02,460 it's very likely that the only reason 765 00:28:06,590 --> 00:28:04,620 that this plan worked is exactly because 766 00:28:09,289 --> 00:28:06,600 grush wasn't claiming to have firsthand 767 00:28:11,510 --> 00:28:09,299 knowledge there is no mechanism by which 768 00:28:13,250 --> 00:28:11,520 members of special access programs can 769 00:28:14,510 --> 00:28:13,260 share classified information directly 770 00:28:17,269 --> 00:28:14,520 with the public 771 00:28:19,490 --> 00:28:17,279 but being one degree removed grush is 772 00:28:21,350 --> 00:28:19,500 able to say things that they can't 773 00:28:23,029 --> 00:28:21,360 what's going to be important to watch is 774 00:28:25,850 --> 00:28:23,039 how Congress and the public at large 775 00:28:27,710 --> 00:28:25,860 respond to grush after this hearing if 776 00:28:29,450 --> 00:28:27,720 he's taken seriously and if Congress 777 00:28:31,549 --> 00:28:29,460 continues to Signal their willingness to 778 00:28:33,529 --> 00:28:31,559 move in an aggressive and bipartisan 779 00:28:35,510 --> 00:28:33,539 manner to ensure greater transparency on 780 00:28:37,130 --> 00:28:35,520 this issue then hopefully the other 781 00:28:39,289 --> 00:28:37,140 whistleblowers will be more willing to 782 00:28:40,549 --> 00:28:39,299 come forward and one more thought on the 783 00:28:42,590 --> 00:28:40,559 whistleblowers 784 00:28:44,870 --> 00:28:42,600 even if they were willing to speak 785 00:28:46,669 --> 00:28:44,880 publicly in next week's hearing I can 786 00:28:48,529 --> 00:28:46,679 think of a couple really good reasons 787 00:28:49,789 --> 00:28:48,539 for why Congress might want to slow play 788 00:28:51,649 --> 00:28:49,799 that hand 789 00:28:53,510 --> 00:28:51,659 there's the most obvious point which is 790 00:28:55,490 --> 00:28:53,520 that if the whistleblowers were to all 791 00:28:57,529 --> 00:28:55,500 come forward next week but the American 792 00:28:59,269 --> 00:28:57,539 public still wasn't in a place where 793 00:29:01,010 --> 00:28:59,279 they were ready to hear it and the 794 00:29:03,110 --> 00:29:01,020 hearing didn't have the intended impact 795 00:29:04,370 --> 00:29:03,120 which I personally think would be a real 796 00:29:05,690 --> 00:29:04,380 possibility given the current 797 00:29:08,210 --> 00:29:05,700 environment 798 00:29:09,890 --> 00:29:08,220 then what the story would be buried 799 00:29:11,330 --> 00:29:09,900 within a couple of news cycles and it 800 00:29:13,370 --> 00:29:11,340 would be impossible to protect the 801 00:29:15,169 --> 00:29:13,380 whistleblowers and the likely result 802 00:29:16,190 --> 00:29:15,179 would be that this story gets buried 803 00:29:18,649 --> 00:29:16,200 again 804 00:29:20,630 --> 00:29:18,659 but beyond that risk there's also the 805 00:29:22,669 --> 00:29:20,640 reality that if members of Congress are 806 00:29:25,430 --> 00:29:22,679 investigating secret programs operating 807 00:29:27,110 --> 00:29:25,440 within the dod without oversight and we 808 00:29:29,450 --> 00:29:27,120 have every indication that this is being 809 00:29:31,070 --> 00:29:29,460 seriously investigated then they 810 00:29:32,990 --> 00:29:31,080 probably wouldn't want to put their key 811 00:29:35,269 --> 00:29:33,000 Witnesses on the stand to reveal what 812 00:29:37,010 --> 00:29:35,279 they know at least not until they are in 813 00:29:39,350 --> 00:29:37,020 a position to act 814 00:29:41,930 --> 00:29:39,360 so given all of this what can we expect 815 00:29:43,909 --> 00:29:41,940 from next week's hearings to be honest 816 00:29:45,769 --> 00:29:43,919 while I'm hoping that we'll get some new 817 00:29:47,750 --> 00:29:45,779 information and new evidence out of this 818 00:29:50,269 --> 00:29:47,760 process I'm not going to be holding my 819 00:29:53,090 --> 00:29:50,279 breath for it what I'm personally hoping 820 00:29:55,070 --> 00:29:53,100 to see are two things I want to see that 821 00:29:57,289 --> 00:29:55,080 all three of the Witnesses are able to 822 00:29:59,810 --> 00:29:57,299 give their full and explicit testimony 823 00:30:01,370 --> 00:29:59,820 about what they know to Congress and to 824 00:30:03,350 --> 00:30:01,380 the American people 825 00:30:05,990 --> 00:30:03,360 and I want to see that Congress is 826 00:30:07,669 --> 00:30:06,000 telegraphing strongly and clearly that 827 00:30:09,350 --> 00:30:07,679 they are taking this matter seriously 828 00:30:11,029 --> 00:30:09,360 and that they want to get to the bottom 829 00:30:13,190 --> 00:30:11,039 of why the whistleblowers that they've 830 00:30:14,210 --> 00:30:13,200 already heard from backed out of this 831 00:30:16,850 --> 00:30:14,220 hearing 832 00:30:19,490 --> 00:30:16,860 as much as I'm absolutely salivating for 833 00:30:21,470 --> 00:30:19,500 any shred of new information if Congress 834 00:30:23,570 --> 00:30:21,480 can just get those two things done in 835 00:30:25,070 --> 00:30:23,580 the hearing and if we get a new set of 836 00:30:27,529 --> 00:30:25,080 hearings scheduled for when Congress 837 00:30:30,110 --> 00:30:27,539 reconvenes in September I think we 838 00:30:32,450 --> 00:30:30,120 should consider it a win and I really 839 00:30:33,950 --> 00:30:32,460 hope that we get that win and I think 840 00:30:35,149 --> 00:30:33,960 it's important to remember what's at 841 00:30:37,190 --> 00:30:35,159 stake here 842 00:30:39,049 --> 00:30:37,200 this is not just about getting the 843 00:30:41,029 --> 00:30:39,059 government to admit to the reality of 844 00:30:43,370 --> 00:30:41,039 the UFO phenomenon or the presence of a 845 00:30:45,710 --> 00:30:43,380 non-human Intelligence on this planet 846 00:30:48,049 --> 00:30:45,720 frankly we don't need the government for 847 00:30:49,789 --> 00:30:48,059 that as anyone who has spent any amount 848 00:30:51,889 --> 00:30:49,799 of time studying this topic can tell you 849 00:30:54,889 --> 00:30:51,899 the evidence for these things is 850 00:30:56,570 --> 00:30:54,899 overwhelming it's all around us and you 851 00:30:59,570 --> 00:30:56,580 don't need anyone's help or permission 852 00:31:02,690 --> 00:30:59,580 to engage with this reality all you need 853 00:31:04,610 --> 00:31:02,700 is curiosity and an open mind try as 854 00:31:06,470 --> 00:31:04,620 they might the nature of our reality 855 00:31:08,149 --> 00:31:06,480 isn't something that the government can 856 00:31:11,090 --> 00:31:08,159 own or control 857 00:31:12,710 --> 00:31:11,100 but something bigger is at stake here if 858 00:31:14,510 --> 00:31:12,720 there is an element of our government 859 00:31:16,789 --> 00:31:14,520 that is in possession of advanced 860 00:31:18,470 --> 00:31:16,799 non-human technology that has the 861 00:31:20,990 --> 00:31:18,480 potential to give them an asymmetric 862 00:31:23,690 --> 00:31:21,000 technological advantage not just over 863 00:31:26,750 --> 00:31:23,700 our adversaries but over our own 864 00:31:29,029 --> 00:31:26,760 military and if this shadowy group is 865 00:31:30,710 --> 00:31:29,039 operating outside of constitutionally 866 00:31:32,990 --> 00:31:30,720 required oversight 867 00:31:34,789 --> 00:31:33,000 if they are threatening and intimidating 868 00:31:37,430 --> 00:31:34,799 members of our military and intelligence 869 00:31:39,049 --> 00:31:37,440 Community who try to come forward if 870 00:31:41,210 --> 00:31:39,059 they are shutting down inquiry 871 00:31:43,669 --> 00:31:41,220 investigation and even attempts at the 872 00:31:45,110 --> 00:31:43,679 most basic safety protocols in response 873 00:31:49,130 --> 00:31:45,120 to this reality 874 00:31:51,169 --> 00:31:49,140 then we are in big big trouble if this 875 00:31:53,210 --> 00:31:51,179 is true it's not just an existential 876 00:31:55,669 --> 00:31:53,220 threat to our country and our democracy 877 00:31:57,950 --> 00:31:55,679 it potentially means that our free and 878 00:32:01,490 --> 00:31:57,960 Democratic country is in a very real 879 00:32:04,190 --> 00:32:01,500 sense already lost to us because we the 880 00:32:07,730 --> 00:32:04,200 people are no longer in control and 881 00:32:09,470 --> 00:32:07,740 likely haven't been for nearly a century 882 00:32:11,870 --> 00:32:09,480 so what can we do 883 00:32:13,549 --> 00:32:11,880 first and foremost we can continue to 884 00:32:15,049 --> 00:32:13,559 contact our representatives in Congress 885 00:32:16,850 --> 00:32:15,059 to thank them for the work that they've 886 00:32:20,210 --> 00:32:16,860 done so far in moving this issue forward 887 00:32:21,769 --> 00:32:20,220 and to encourage them to do more at the 888 00:32:23,930 --> 00:32:21,779 end of the day these people are public 889 00:32:25,970 --> 00:32:23,940 servants but they are also politicians 890 00:32:27,889 --> 00:32:25,980 and if they're going to take up a 891 00:32:29,870 --> 00:32:27,899 potentially messy fight such as this one 892 00:32:32,450 --> 00:32:29,880 especially while heading into a 893 00:32:34,070 --> 00:32:32,460 contentious election cycle they need to 894 00:32:35,690 --> 00:32:34,080 know that they have the collective will 895 00:32:38,630 --> 00:32:35,700 and support of the American people 896 00:32:40,010 --> 00:32:38,640 behind them and that we expect them to 897 00:32:41,630 --> 00:32:40,020 do everything in their power to 898 00:32:43,190 --> 00:32:41,640 investigate this issue and to hold 899 00:32:45,409 --> 00:32:43,200 people accountable 900 00:32:47,090 --> 00:32:45,419 and the other thing that we can do is to 901 00:32:48,350 --> 00:32:47,100 talk to the people in our lives about 902 00:32:50,870 --> 00:32:48,360 this issue 903 00:32:52,789 --> 00:32:50,880 as we've discussed everything about the 904 00:32:54,769 --> 00:32:52,799 situation is riding on the American 905 00:32:57,049 --> 00:32:54,779 people beginning to wake up to the 906 00:32:59,450 --> 00:32:57,059 reality of the UFO phenomenon 907 00:33:01,490 --> 00:32:59,460 we need to have that breakthrough moment 908 00:33:03,230 --> 00:33:01,500 and we need to continue to push for it 909 00:33:05,450 --> 00:33:03,240 until we get there 910 00:33:07,549 --> 00:33:05,460 next week's hearings likely won't be 911 00:33:10,190 --> 00:33:07,559 that moment but it can be a major 912 00:33:12,409 --> 00:33:10,200 inflection point this thing is like a 913 00:33:14,330 --> 00:33:12,419 snowball rolling downhill public 914 00:33:17,210 --> 00:33:14,340 awareness of UFOs will likely happen 915 00:33:18,889 --> 00:33:17,220 slowly at first and then all at once and 916 00:33:20,750 --> 00:33:18,899 we can't know where we are in that 917 00:33:23,269 --> 00:33:20,760 process and how close we are to the 918 00:33:24,769 --> 00:33:23,279 Tipping Point until we get there so the 919 00:33:26,450 --> 00:33:24,779 best thing that we can do is just to 920 00:33:29,029 --> 00:33:26,460 keep talking about it 921 00:33:31,430 --> 00:33:29,039 now granted not everyone is ready for 922 00:33:34,009 --> 00:33:31,440 this conversation everyone's situation 923 00:33:35,570 --> 00:33:34,019 is unique some of you might have lots of 924 00:33:37,730 --> 00:33:35,580 people in your life that are open-minded 925 00:33:39,470 --> 00:33:37,740 enough to consider these ideas and some 926 00:33:41,930 --> 00:33:39,480 of you might wonder if there's anyone 927 00:33:44,690 --> 00:33:41,940 you can talk to at all and as important 928 00:33:46,250 --> 00:33:44,700 as this issue is if talking about it is 929 00:33:48,769 --> 00:33:46,260 going to alienate you from the people 930 00:33:50,269 --> 00:33:48,779 closest to you or God forbid cause you 931 00:33:52,310 --> 00:33:50,279 to lose your job or something like that 932 00:33:54,470 --> 00:33:52,320 then you should not feel guilty about 933 00:33:56,870 --> 00:33:54,480 keeping those thoughts to yourself 934 00:33:58,430 --> 00:33:56,880 but if you are in a position to talk to 935 00:34:00,830 --> 00:33:58,440 certain people in your life about this 936 00:34:03,529 --> 00:34:00,840 I'd encourage you to do so 937 00:34:05,690 --> 00:34:03,539 start slowly at first don't throw anyone 938 00:34:07,789 --> 00:34:05,700 into the deep end just start by feeling 939 00:34:09,409 --> 00:34:07,799 them out ask them if they've heard about 940 00:34:10,790 --> 00:34:09,419 the upcoming hearing or about the 941 00:34:13,490 --> 00:34:10,800 government's admission that the UFO 942 00:34:14,990 --> 00:34:13,500 phenomenon is real don't try to push the 943 00:34:18,290 --> 00:34:15,000 conversation where you want it to go 944 00:34:20,389 --> 00:34:18,300 instead follow their curiosity if they 945 00:34:21,889 --> 00:34:20,399 don't ask follow-up questions maybe just 946 00:34:24,649 --> 00:34:21,899 let it go for a while and come back to 947 00:34:26,450 --> 00:34:24,659 it but if they do ask questions then do 948 00:34:28,250 --> 00:34:26,460 your best to answer them clearly and 949 00:34:29,629 --> 00:34:28,260 directly while sticking to the facts as 950 00:34:31,609 --> 00:34:29,639 much as possible 951 00:34:34,190 --> 00:34:31,619 try to avoid the urge to tell them what 952 00:34:35,570 --> 00:34:34,200 it means and instead help them get to a 953 00:34:37,730 --> 00:34:35,580 place where they're asking themselves 954 00:34:39,409 --> 00:34:37,740 what it means and then point them in the 955 00:34:41,389 --> 00:34:39,419 direction of some resources that might 956 00:34:43,730 --> 00:34:41,399 be able to help them frame things 957 00:34:46,430 --> 00:34:43,740 if you get pushback do your best not to 958 00:34:48,230 --> 00:34:46,440 be defensive not everyone is ready to 959 00:34:50,089 --> 00:34:48,240 talk about this stuff and it can be easy 960 00:34:52,430 --> 00:34:50,099 to take someone's skepticism on this 961 00:34:54,169 --> 00:34:52,440 topic personally to take it as a 962 00:34:55,250 --> 00:34:54,179 judgment of your objectivity or 963 00:34:57,410 --> 00:34:55,260 intelligence 964 00:34:58,730 --> 00:34:57,420 trust me I know that when you bring up 965 00:35:00,109 --> 00:34:58,740 something like this to someone that you 966 00:35:02,930 --> 00:35:00,119 love and respect and they look at you 967 00:35:04,550 --> 00:35:02,940 like you're crazy it can sting but try 968 00:35:06,410 --> 00:35:04,560 to remember that everyone has their own 969 00:35:08,450 --> 00:35:06,420 Journey with this and that nothing about 970 00:35:10,730 --> 00:35:08,460 someone else's worldview is personal 971 00:35:12,890 --> 00:35:10,740 we're all just here trying to figure 972 00:35:14,270 --> 00:35:12,900 things out and if you do get some 973 00:35:16,069 --> 00:35:14,280 interest from the people that you talk 974 00:35:18,050 --> 00:35:16,079 to and are looking for resources to 975 00:35:20,569 --> 00:35:18,060 share with them please consider sharing 976 00:35:22,430 --> 00:35:20,579 the UFO rabbit hole and done my best to 977 00:35:24,470 --> 00:35:22,440 create resources that go deep on the 978 00:35:26,150 --> 00:35:24,480 current push for disclosure while also 979 00:35:28,730 --> 00:35:26,160 being accessible to people who don't 980 00:35:30,349 --> 00:35:28,740 have any background on this topic I have 981

so that someone with no 987 00:35:43,910 --> 00:35:41,940 background on the topic can start on 988 00:35:46,370 --> 00:35:43,920 episode one and get up to speed with the 989 00:35:47,930 --> 00:35:46,380 most seasoned ufologists and if the 990 00:35:50,390 --> 00:35:47,940 people you're talking to aren't podcast 991 00:35:52,010 --> 00:35:50,400 people I'll also share a list of books 992
