“The sheer number of reports, whistleblowers and stories of unidentified anomalous phenomena should raise real questions and warrant investigation and oversight. And that’s why we are here today,” Rep. Robert Garcia, the top Democrat on the subcommittee, said in his opening statement. "UAPs, whatever they may be, may pose a serious threat to our military or civilian aircraft. And that must be understood."
"With all this shit, there has to be a pony in here somewhere."
I wonder if they're staring at rainbows, and calling them UAPs because clearly it's some Gay Alien Agenda.
Comments like these make me feel like HN is turning into Reddit. Not a good thing.
AOC was there and did ask a question that provided the only name of a possibly involved department.

If anyone's reading this, I would recommend watching the hearings. It was very serious for everyone, on both sides of the aisle. The partisanship was left at the door, and the allegations were serious.

People probably don't believe the whistleblower, I understand. Regardless, accusations of serious government fraud from someone of his tenure should be investigated. You don't give up your whole career over a possibility of fraud or more.

If the US government had actual information about this, Trump would have tweeted about it years ago.
You think the kind of people who know about things like this would have told Trump?
You think this is more critical to national security than the classified documents he was caught taking home with him?
Not necessarily, but I do think that if there's a big UFO coverup dating back half a century, it's obviously highly compartmentalized, and probably more tightly controlled than your run-of-the-mill top secret (or even SCI) documents. Trump's a clown, it's obvious he's a clown, and the people who control such a hypothetical UFO program would do everything in their power to prevent such a clown from 1) becoming aware of their program, and if necessary 2) gaining access to information about their program.
I have often wondered what the definition of "need to know" (one of the requirements for being read into classified information) is for a President, a temporary government employee.
Two presidents claimed to have seen a UFO. Both never declassified it. One even ran on that promise. Barack Obama and his wife are producing a documentary about a famous UFO event currently. If there is a UAP program, the presidents are not told about it, probably because of the possibility of a mishandling of that information, that's what I think. If, of course, you think it exists at all.

Your clear bias and overly emotional responses makes me dismiss want you’re trying to say. Can you try rephrasing everything in a clear and data driven approach?
For some reason USA government fuels this. Why? Some intelligence operation possibly.
