UFOs are supposed to be the stuff of conspiracy theories and fringe documentaries. And yet many high-ranking government officials believe some of the most explosive claims about UFOs to be true. How would this potential reality affect the conservative worldview?
On December 13, 2023 Majority Leader Chuck Schumer took to the Senate floor to deliver remarks which can only be described as incredible. He was speaking about his amendment to the National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA). Remarkably, the subject of this amendment was not Ukraine or China, nor Russia or Iran, but rather UAP (Unidentified Anomalous Phenomena, or what used to be called UFOs). Schumer lamented that
The United States government has gathered a great deal of information about UAPs over many decades but has refused to share it with the American people. That is wrong and additionally breeds mistrust. We have also been notified by multiple credible sources that information on UAPs has also been withheld from Congress, which, if true, is a violation of laws requiring full notification to the legislative branch.
These claims—that the executive branch of the government has gathered a “great deal of information” about UAP over “decades” but has refused to share it with the public and has even violated the law by withholding information from congress—are quite simply extraordinary.

well this one responds... seeing is believing. If I no see, I no believe!
I'm one of those who have actually seen one fairly close. A huge glowing green ball in a very remote area doing things that defied the laws of physics. Of course the few people I told about thought I was making it up and one person confidently told me that I must have seen an Air Force stealth jet. I told him I didn't realize the Air Force had stealth jets that looked like giant green glowing balls that could silently fly straight up out of a narrow remote canyon and zig-zag across the sky a 100 feet above ground before descending back into the canyon.
Well said my UFO friend. :)
It isn’t for very ignorant people. You think you can argue with Commander David Fravor? You can’t. You think you can assign what he and others gatherer on their FLIR weapons systems, you can’t. They can’t identify what they are either and he pursued a craft up close with verified objective evidence. Several other Navy pilots have also followed Fravor saying exactly what I’ve stated here. We don’t know their intent and that should create a concern for us to find out.
Many of us have and still work in this business and it’s clearly nothing any of us have ever seen, it’s completely new propulsion technology.
It’s only not decided for people who want to remain ignorant by their own choice. Sticking one’s head in the sand because they can’t or don’t want to face the facts of the reality worked for the Catholic church when Galileo was alive but it’s not a viable option today.
Sounds something like the WWII ‘Foo’ fighters.
“I’m one of those who have actually seen one fairly close.”
I have seen them three times now, third experience just a few weeks ago.
They are real...
They are demonic entities.
“This was a fabrication invented by Harry Reid just before he died to distract voters.”
Lol, then he went back in time quite aways to set this one up... It really is not new at all:

If they are natural phenomenal there’s nothing we can do about it
If they are extraterrestrial visitors there’s nothing we can do about it.
Just what we need: more illegal aliens... FROM SPAAAAACE!!!
You win, hands down!
“They are demonic entities.”
Before you get completely sold on that idea, you might want to take a look at these “Christian” holy paintings...

I have never witnessed one, but I don’t doubt that they are out there. I wouldn’t be alarmed if they are, if they wanted to harm us they would have done so long ago. I think that they just watch us and leave us to our own demise, as I think we would do if we were discovering a habitable planet in another solar system. We would most likely leave the local life alone, or share our knowledge. Any life form that can get here from another solar system must be far, far advanced. Would make no sense for them to destroy us. Besides we’re doing a pretty good job of destroying ourselves.
I too have seen more than the one I mentioned in my post #42. That was the only witnessed close up. I live in a remote area with very dark skies and have seen several inexplicable objects moving at incredible speeds suddenly come to a complete stop and change direction in the night sky. Yes, they are real.
And their propulsion systems are stone cold. The make no interface with our
atmosphere in terms of plasma that should exist for objects traveling at those speeds. They turn without any centrifical force at right angles that would crumble any craft and kill its occupants. Yes it’s a different physics. What their intent is should be a top priority in any conservative’s mind.
She is more than just an idiot she is a threat to everything that is good and wonderful.
The crazy words though were a lead up to the song Martian hop.
as a child, i saw what i saw and that’s what i saw.
otherwise, why would a six foot by six foot air force officer with all the salad come to convince me i did not see what i saw!
Have they been vaxxed? Do they taste like chicken?
I have not and am not really sure I would want to get close to one. There is data being developed now that demonstrates human biological damage at a distance of 150 ft (I think).
I was born in Missouri, so I can say, “I am from Missouri. Show me.” I want to see real evidence of what they are claiming. If I am convinced by the evidence that there has been contact with some other life form, then I would need to consider what exactly that life form is. As an Orthodox Christian, I would have to take seriously the teaching of theologians and clergy who say that these are demons.
I have become very distrustful of pretty much anything coming from the government, media, and much of the culture, because a lot of it is designed to manipulate people. In this age of AI, I can look at an image or see a video or listen to audio and not really be certain whether it is real or manufactured. Until they show me, then I am not going to waste any time on speculation. There are other issues much more pressing for me.
