    But the sources, who asked to remain anonymous and are all in a position to know, told Public that, in addition to the whistleblowers reporting wrongdoing, between 30 to 50 government employees or contractors have gone to the DoD’s All-Anomaly Resolution Office (AARO) to offer testimony about UAPs.

    Testimony has included both first-hand and second-hand reports of crash retrieval and reverse-engineering programs by US, Russian, and Chinese governments; the testing of materials obtained from retrieved craft; active and ongoing government disinformation operations; kinetic military action with UAPs; contact and collaboration with nonhuman intelligence (NHIs); and the successful reverse-engineering of a triangle-shaped craft with unconventional propulsion.

    Some more interesting things of note from the paid portion.

    • Secretary of Defense Lloyd Austin is trying to undermine Schumer’s UAP amendment, telling anyone who will listen that it will hurt national security
    • Rep. Mike Turner similarly has tried to kill the amendment, and block the congressional UAP hearings after Grusch’s July testimony
    • Senator Mark Warner has tried to shut down the possibility of any UAP hearings in the Senate

    Edit: If any of this reporting is true, this is wild.

    Sometimes I pause when I read about how hard some military leadership is trying to stop disclosure. If all of this is just weapons testing then, okay, that makes normal sense. If it’s because there is a ton of graft, then, wow, that’s still a story. But what if it’s just really disturbingly bad news and they really are trying to stop a well-founded risk of global panic.

    Still, call me Pandora, but i still want to know…

    This is pretty big news IMHO, especially the bit about the triangle craft, which to me is HUGE, because it has that been seen/rumored for years as a US made ARV(alien reproduction vehicle).

    If that turns out to be true, that means someone has been passively leaking this info for years, what else could be true?

      Leaking a same\specific lie over and over to keep tabs on the leak trails seems far more likely than Fermi winning the dice roll on this.
