    Just be glad I didn't post the Barstool tweet that made me find that video. The article in it links to Rogan, the Washington Examiner, AND Tucker Carlson.

    So the video is probably fake anyway

    Was there a visible splash? The sun dives into the Pacific Ocean every evening and nobody says anything about that.

    He addressed the pentagon’s phrasing of his involvement in AATIP being “assigned” duties and how that was a bullshit way to make it seem like he wasn’t working on the stuff when he was working on the stuff. Basically said assigned is doing a lot of heavy lifting in their statement on his involvement since there weren’t really explicitly. He also said they’ve gone back and forth on the exact phrasing first saying he had no duties then amending it to assigned duties but that they’re not telling the truth about it or that it’s some technicality that I don’t remember like they didn’t have assigned duties or it was run out of a different department or something.

    It’s a common thing for disgraced former military to say but also attempting to discredit people is sort of the defense department’s MO and he gave other ways they’ve lied in the narrative over the years like for instance them denying the existence of these craft for years and then being like well Jk guys we’ve been seeing them for decades surprise. He didn’t say anything about Tom Delong or to the stars academy.

    What about generally hanging out with conspiracy theorist whackados? I generally don't find sane and credible people to regularly hang out in those circles.

    But for argument’s sake Fravor, the other pilot, Chris Mellon, and the pentagon have all said similar stuff even if Elizondo isn’t credible

    I find Dietrich (the other pilot) to be as credible as it gets.

    Even skeptic Mick West had a hard time explaining away the eyewitness accounts of the 4 pilots who saw what they saw.

    Chris Mellon also seems like a reasonable guy with an extensive resume in government. And he’s someone who doesn’t subscribe to the lunacy of like bob lazar and other weird conspiracy circles.

    Jammers can do a lot to block that kind of thing, but it works both ways. If you’re broad-spectrum jamming you can’t communicate either (especially because e ermine uses roughly the same spectrum of microwaves to communicate these days). So even the threat of drone swarms is bad news.

    I think they are anomalies of every sort of whichever inperfect algorithm you are using to sense something. People see things on drugs because they interrupt their visual processing algorithms, cameras and stuff on military air craft I definitely dont trust because all that stuff is only as good as the software and the software aint really shit not accounting for all the electromagnetic and environmental effects on the hardware from being in those damn vehicles, bound to get some weird conditions of feedback that is unexplainable. Now a sober person seeing one that to me is the hardest to give a reason or cause to why someone 'saw' something that are infinite, starting with the skeptics favorite: they are just lying. Anyway I am sure some is real, some is fake, and to me I dont think the government has really been shady about UFOs just in the fact that the term UFO isnt alien related it is simply an unidentifiable object that appears to be resisting gravity... unidentified as in literally the military term is that you dont know what the hell it is.

    Have we talked about this pic just released apparently from a 1971 National Geographic survey of Costa Rica? The camera was automated as they flew over and nobody saw it. They only found it after they later pulled the footage out of storage for review.

    Nate Bargatze has a really great joke on his latest special filmed in 2020ish that’s like you know the year is fucked up when the government is like ufos exist and everyone is like I don’t care.

    So admittedly I’m used to significantly more modern satellite imagery but this doesn’t look like an airborn object to me. It’s a near-nadir shot and the “object” loses quality on the “up” side of the image, which doesn’t make sense. No shadow on the ground either, and shadows are up so we’d probably see something. My guess is a film error since these were wet-film cameras that ejected their payloads into the atmosphere and were recovered by aircraft, or something weird in the water.

    this looks like every 1950s ufo movie spaceship

    also, the term flying saucer is due to a misquote from one of the earliest “sightings” in the US

    People on the reliable platform of Twitter were saying that some “Miller Notes” were entered into evidence. There are conversations and details about meetings that are outlandish, so to be talked about in the hearings (if the documents actually were) raises questions.

    Could be another satellite at a different orbit. You get similar changes in observed planetary movements and that’s why you get the “mercury in retrograde” bullshit.

    So I whipped this up in 5 minutes so it's rough, but yellow is the ISS orbital pathway, red is the "UFO". Red looks like it's slightly lower in altitude so it's going to be traveling a little faster (orbital mechanics: closer to gravity well = faster orbit)), and I've drawn it roughly in a normal orbit from a Florida launch. Obviously this is conjecture but I think something like this is probably what we're seeing. Keep in mind it's a few pixels moving in a 3D space on a low quality 2D camera, so the "hovering" section is probably missing a lot of Z-axis movement.
