Marco Rubio Claims Top U.S. Officials Coming Forward With UFO Claims
newsweek.com ^ | ALEKS PHILLIPS

Posted on 06/27/2023 9:44:27 AM PDT by RoosterRedux

Marco Rubio has claimed that those who have come forward regarding claims about the U.S. government retrieving alien aircraft "have held very high clearances and high positions within our government."

The senior senator for Florida and vice chair of the Select Committee on Intelligence was cautious not to reveal who had already come forward with information as part of an investigation by Congress into the matter when he spoke to NewsNation on Monday.

"Frankly a lot of them are very fearful," the Republican senator said. "Fearful of their jobs, fearful of their clearances, fearful of their career." Similarly, others involved in the investigation have been guarded about the details of the probe.

At the beginning of June, House Oversight Committee chair James Comer announced an investigation into allegations that a top-secret military program already had a fully intact UFO in its possession.

[...]

Asked about who was coming forward as part of the investigation, Rubio said some were public figures who "we've heard from" in the past, while others had not spoken publicly on UFOs. Others, meanwhile, "still work in the government."

When questioned about whether he found the assertions credible, the senator responded that some of the claims "are beyond the realm of what any of us has ever dealt with," but that the inquiry would "intake the information without any prejudgement or jumping to any conclusions in one direction or another."

Rubio said: "I will say I find most of these people—at some point, or maybe even currently—have held very high clearances and high positions within our government, so you do ask yourself: 'What incentive would so many people with that kind of qualification... have to come forward and make something up?'"

“Again, you clueless freaks pipe-up like you know what you are talking about.”

While you, a totally clued-in freak, knows everything about the capabilities of all potential beings in the universe, including those who might have been evolving for millions or billions of years.

“Most Freepers think this is all fake.
They are wrong—and it is gonna be very painful—for them.”

We must be up to at least 100 news items that - per FR experts - were designed to take the focus off of Biden’s economy/scandals/dementia/etc.

Exactly.

The potential for alien presence was never discussed prior to Joementia’s selection.

“Whistleblowers are providing testimony in classified hearings. The veracity of their testimony doesn’t hinge on what the public may or may not think.”

C’mon man...FR’s experts don’t want to hear that.

You are right, of course. I have quit caring about what is going to happen to those people.

“If it were actual psyops, you wouldn’t have to scream it with large, bold fonts.”

Not to mention that we’re up to about a terabyte of items that have supposedly been manufactured to distract from The Vegetable’s doings. It’s silly.

Lots of talk, but still zero physical evidence.

I believe you, but we don’t know what it was. There have been lots of UFO reports from credible people, but no physical evidence of UFOs.

I wonder how many filming takes on that scene, from the girl flubbing that line to other people cracking up during the scene?

“If a Republican is on National TV, and they’re not talking about the biggest scandal in Presidential History - you know they’re Dirty.
BSBR
Biden Shakedown & Bribery Racket”

I read here that the past 100+ news items were to distract from the biggest scandal in presidential history - the stolen election. Then it was to distract from Biden’s dementia. Then it was to distract from his border crisis. Now it’s the shakedown and bribery. Do you have a program to help keep track?

Have you been a jackass for the last 35 years? Have you not read any of my (supportive) responses to your other comments? It was sarcasm WRT comment #24. I guess I should never post a reaction to a comment without also including the original comment, since apparently you’re unable to check for yourself.

Not true. It’s been discussed for decades. Over 20 years ago a bunch of retired military, DIA, FAA officials and Air traffic controllers gave a long press conference at the National Press Club. Most of them were very serious, credible men.

Jeez...I’m well aware of that. It was a sarcastic reply to comment #24. Doesn’t anyone check what a comment was in reference to?
