This week the House of Representatives held a hearing in which they heard David Grusch repeat his claims that he heard from unnamed individuals that the United States has retrieved and studied crashed flying saucers and knows where the ships are stored. Representatives seemed to accept the claims with little pushback, even as the hearing turned into a gathering of dubious ufologists, paranormal researchers, and UFO media figures, working together to promote sensational and dubious claims. Jeremy Corbell, who attended the hearing as a guest of Grusch, claimed in an interview afterward that he had been given access to the secret locations where allegedly highly classified technology was kept--despite not being a government employee or having a security clearance. The fix is in. Congress and ufologists are working together to legitimize old hoaxes from the 1940s about crashed saucers.
I discussed some of the historical background for Congress's foray into dubious UFO lore today for CNN. Read it here.

The United States is after all the preferred destination for aliens.

Rockefeller was a major Party Political Contributor (that led to the 1990s Roswell crash "reviewed", though of course the defense department still refused to expose classified information for the sake of UFO buffs)..

If you really think the 1947 Roswell photos are genuine....

Where is the equipment that was supposed to record the Russians testing A-Bombs? It wasn't shown simply because even that "explanation", given during the 1990s would have been wrong because it would have been classified information. And why should the defense department confess to something merely because of Flying Saucer kooks.

Let’s say real aliens land tomorrow (it’s not gonna happen, but just for the sake of argument).
