@dsmethurst66 A lot of my skepticism comes from the fact that the legacy people have managed to manipulate really intelligent presidents. I just can’t imagine Trump being the one to outsmart them, as much as I’d love to see it.
@RepOgles The worst thing about being a UAP disclosure advocate is that most of our political allies in this space are absolutely awful people. Just like this guy.
@NancyMace Imagine having this level of contempt for survivors that you boast about questioning the irrelevant Hillary Clinton, but claim that Trump has been exonerated just because you’re afraid of him 🙄
@dsmethurst66 …or when Burchett is hating on immigrants, or Mace hating on too many people to mention 😁 I just find it almost impossible to trust people like that, but I admire your very sensible and considered approach, as always!
@dsmethurst66 Thanks Dave. I wish I was as measured as you. I initially embraced the bi-partisan side of things. But then it became so hard to take Luna seriously when she’s fawning over the Russia, or when Burlison is insulting Epstein survivors by boasting about interviewing Hilary Clinton..
@EricBurlison This is what partisan accountability looks like. Watching from overseas, where we jump on anyone who’s implicated in the files, it’s absolutely extraordinary to see people in the US trying to make political capital from this. It’s really sad for the survivors too.
@dsmethurst66 Totally agree 😂 I’m just concerned, as always, that so many of the UAP-sympathetic politicians are absolutely fruitcakes…Luna, Mace, Burlison, Burchett. Even though I like some of them, they can affect the credibility of the subject if the crazy-meter gets turned up too high 😁
@michaelshermer@JeremyCorbell Scientists aren’t well placed to adjudicate on gate keeping activities and threats and cover-ups. I personally think the first stage is about politics and economics and law. Then when the technical data are disclosed, scientists will have the pre-eminent role. But not until then.
@michaelshermer@JeremyCorbell I would respectfully say, as a scientist, that scientists need to stay in our lane here. The “evidence” that underpins science is freely obtainable and shared among investigators. The evidence at play here is more akin to that which would usually involve law enforcement etc
It’s a shame that some of the US politicians in the disclosure space are absolutely awful people, with some really abhorrent views outside of the #UAP#UFO stuff. I would say that most, but not all, politicians advocating for disclosure are in this category. Am I being unfair?
@dsmethurst66 I honestly think the way to get this done is to convince him of how much his family could profit from the tech and convince him that the gatekeepers are democrats. That would motivate him!
@ChrisKMellon My own very humble opinion is that Trump will be very easy to manipulate. They’ll throw him a few bones and that will be enough. I just can’t see him grasping the multi-generational cover up or dealing with it. I hope I’m wrong, though!
@thatuapgirl Yeah this idea of “scientific proof” is an unachievable bar. When we “do science”, we have unfettered access to all the data we need and can analyse it objectively. You can’t do that when one side is working with 0.5% of the available information, while also being threatened
@ADelarge60 I have never felt that we were going to get disclosure. Now I’m certain about that. There’s virtually no political will. There’s no public demand. So it’s gonna be easy to keep it hidden IMHO
@Disclosure202@GoodTroubleShow I remember when we were kids. In Europe everyone wanted to be like Americans. Now most people feel sorry for Americans. In Ireland, aside from the far right, it really is sympathy in a “look how far they’ve fallen” kinda way. Sad, as we used to have a very strong bond with the US
https://t.co/Kdghq0fOch so basically anyone who has had a #UAP experience should “go see a psychiatrist” and we “should just have someone go into area 51” 🙄 An awful awful interview #uaptwitter#ufotwitter
