James Lee :
This whole UFO thing, idk, I’ll believe it when I see it I guess. Other than that, I think of how in the 50’s the US claimed there was a giant bomber gap between us and the Soviets, so we needed to increase the defense budget, then, in the 60’s they said the Soviets had way more missiles then us, so we needed to increase the budget again, then it was the war on terror, now it’s Iran and UFO’s. I’ve thought about why seemingly truthful people have come forward and given testimony and all I can think of is to put them into two categories, one, they’re being ‘patriotic Americans’ and they’re on board with lying to increase defense spending. Two, as in the case with David Grusch, I think he may be a useful idiot, he genuinely believes what his colleagues told him and he really does think something illegal is going on, which he’s not wrong about the illegal part, just the whole alien thing. The convenient narrative of UFO’s is the kind of money they can receive for a threat like that is massive and the Pentagon can then place that money straight into Special Access Programs that have zero congressional oversight. The GAO (Government Accountability Office) has put the Pentagon’s financial on its high risk list every single year since 1995. I’m more apt to believe in fraud rather than aliens tbh.
