Hearing begins at 10AM ET
Official channel: Subcommittee on National Security, the Border, and Foreign Affairs Hearing https://www.newsnationnow.com/space/ufo/luna-house-oversight-hearing-uaps-uly-26/ The House Oversight Committee has a UAP hearing on July 26th and this time, there will be whistleblowers speaking instead of us listening to another organization repeating the "we ain't found shit" narrative. David Grusch will be testifying as well as 3 other as-yet-unnamed whistleblowers. The rumblings were that things were going to be picking up steam and it's sure as shit happening. Ross Coulthart has stated there is a time crunch for disclosure because of some impending thing. He won't elaborate much and gives the caveat that he's getting it from a few different sources, along with a "skepticism is healthy" reminder. Some people jump to "the mothership is on its way" but a more reasonable possibility is that there's a desire to reveal some sort of beneficial tech OR the folks in congress want to get it done before the elections so a new group doesn't come in and reset the clock. It's definitely intriguing. NOTE TO ACTIVE TOPIC PEOPLE: This is not posted in GD. Know the CoC. ETA: The speakers will be David Grusch, Lt. Ryan Graves, and Cmdr. David Fravor. The hearing will be live on NewsNation starting at 10AM ET. |

Fravor's testimony here near the end reminds me of the hearing in Escape from the Planet of the Apes. There was actually audience reaction to some of his comments.

Rep. Ogle has stated that if the committee is not allowed to interview Grusch in a SCIF, he will personally invoke the Holman rule:
"The Holman rule is a rule in the United States House of Representatives that allows amendments to appropriations legislation that would reduce the salary of or fire specific federal employees, or cut a specific program." |

Adjourned. The hearing was almost 2.5 hours long. One for the history books.

Watched last half and it was very good and worthwhile. The cat is out of the bag so to speak.
My take is still that this is all planned out as the decision for partial disclosure has been made. The hearings are getting it all into the record. We are still around step #3 that I wrote about in another thread. Still 5-6 more steps to go but things are accelerating |
|
|
One of my fears is that they’ll take all further discussion on UAPs 100% secret due to it being “a threat”.

Even the retired CDR sitting to his left, whose testimony was at times jocular and tongue-in-cheek, was much more credible as he had personal knowledge of the events under question and never gave an evasive answer. ETA: let me put it this way. Were I a Congressman on that committee, I would urge action based upon the testimony of the retired USN CDR but not based on the testimony of Grusch. (Testimony in a closed door session may cause me to believe differently, however.) |

IMO Grusch did better today than he did in the interview he gave to those reporters a month or so ago. More credible this time, and his willingness to name names (of people and contractors) with direct knowledge added to that credibility.
I will need to watch the whole hearing this evening, but the portions I saw were way more compelling than I anticipated. |

My big question is, why was Clapper sitting directly behind Grusch? |

I don't think disclosure would be that impactful to most religions. Having said that, there are quite a few eyewitness accounts from people who claim to have met beings that look almost exactly like us. I would think that the chances of natural selection arriving at two almost identical looking beings on different planets is near zero. If true, I understand why governments would want to keep that hidden. |

I'm an Immigrant (was born here but grew up abroad and only came back years ago) so my view of certain typical American things is often incomplete and maybe too simplistic - but it all "looked" very good to me. |

View Quote I don't know why it would negate anything but the views of the "We're alone" atheists. We've been hearing about UFOs and other races (Nephilim or Aryan) since biblical times, just diminished in translations a bit and described oddly as there were no other flying machines to compare to (other than birds). Could be Humans are "The Chosen Ones" that were led out of Egypt, rather than Nephilim hybrids of some sort as a rough example of a ton of "wiggle room" for there to be other out there and potentially as a Creator. People that have driven into their minds existing iconography as "This is what it looks like" might have an issue but not because of the information, but their idolatry of symbols is broken. Those are the groups with an inflexible view of God/creator, which will be upset, as well as the atheists which use the absence of other races as proof (several "types" of atheists around out there, some militant) Multiple races of beings are not omitted though some practices are. |

Thinking about Grusch's testimony, something else bugs me. The "non-human biologics", appears to be a deliberately misleading answer - seems to lead a person to think, "if it's not human, it must be an extraterrestrial being!"
If somebody stumbled upon Sputnik 2 with no information as to the nature of that spacecraft, they would find a "non-human biologic" creature in the pilot's seat. Inside would be an example of canis familiaris, known to its owners as Laika, but most definitely, unquestionably a "non-human biologic", but a very common terrestrial being, nonetheless. Mace even specifically asks about extraterrestrials, Grusch answers that he's not going to answer that in open testimony. She backs off, asking if they were human or non-human, to which he responds "non-human biologics". So, the thing he seems unwilling to answer is if they're extraterrestrial or not, fueling speculation on the part of observers. I wonder why that is...is he trying to sensationalize his own testimony? |

View Quote Also, Grusch is very much a black and white, data type and he stated that he will not subscribe to a hypothetical origin, hence him using the very generic term "non-human biologic". He uses that term in his description but he clearly answers "yes" to the (paraphrased) question "have we recovered non-human pilots?". |

This has been an astonishing and historic event. I’m extremely happy with the entire bipartisan effort, the witnesses, and the tone of the event.
This is an unprecedented secret cracked open, greater than any clandestine program or conspiracy in known human history. |

View Quote More and more, I think an explanation along these lines is mostly likely. Their origin may be E.T. or it may be interdimensional and those may end up being the same thing, and I think they've been here far longer than we have and have a vested interest in us as a species. I've never been a forgotten civilization(s) advocate, but my thinking is moving more in that direction. One thing I do believe, is that mankind's history is VASTLY different than we currently believe. We may well be one of an infinite number of mankinds and humans or near-humans may be scattered across the galaxy. |

I don't know why it would negate anything but the views of the "We're alone" atheists. We've been hearing about UFOs and other races (Nephilim or Aryan) since biblical times, just diminished in translations a bit and described oddly as there were no other flying machines to compare to (other than birds). Could be Humans are "The Chosen Ones" that were led out of Egypt, rather than Nephilim hybrids of some sort as a rough example of a ton of "wiggle room" for there to be other out there and potentially as a Creator.

Religion will adjust and adapt. It always has and always will. The faith in Yehwey, for example, has survived a cataclysmic flood, enslavment in egypt, exodus, the fall of solomon, exile to babylon, persia, rome, Jesus, rome again, the dark ages, Martin Luther, Mohammed, Smith, Copernicus…. And so very many more changes and challenges to the world and it’s viewpoints. And that’s just what 1/2 of the world’s believe. Billions follow faiths that are ancient and seen the world change. It’s going to be OK. |

I was expecting a big fat nothing during this testimony. I was very wrong. Long way to go but the ball was definitely moved forward. I expect things to ramp up from here.
This “disclosure” small “d” was significant but it doesn’t shake my religious faith in any way. Even if we were created by EBE (which is a very large leap) who created them? At this moment it seems our World and our existence is being expanded exponentially. Shocking in one sense but if you have followed this subject for any amount of time it’s not surprising. Hang on for the ride……. |

I have done extensive research as many other members here and a growing number of people in general. The reporting from thousands of people, sometimes in groups (seeing the same thing) is at this point, self evident. These are 'intelligent craft', 'maneuvered intelligently' and it's been in various shapes and forms seen for decades. Decades. You can grab a number of books from a handful of credible, high level investigative journalists - we're not in 1973 anymore. These things are real, they're here and they're not ours. |

Many previous bits of information, accounts etc… are going to get second and third looks now. I expect additional whistle blowers to start flooding out. It’s going to get crazy for a bit with lots of noise but like everything it will settle down to a very new normal…. Whatever that means….. |

I think the Aliens might see the rate of progress of humans and recognize we will develop to their level enough to threaten them, so they are disclosing what the rules are

I don't believe anything coming from government. When I see an alien step out of a UFO in person I'll believe it

(Battle of LA is a factual event; it's just always been blamed on "war jitters"). I think both of those are candidates for what is being seen. As I've stated before, there are thousands of images and reports simply tossed aside in Project Blue Book with the flimsiest of excuses. Pulling some of those together and trends appear, forgot the site but there was a collection of several I'd not heard of prior to that which showed US and outside US footage in similar time frames. The project Blue Book is out there and a lot more is searchable but a lot is dry and I don't know how to pull all images from the report(s). Link to an image list of the report with just the text. I can't find the preliminary reports with images that was later "abridged". People asking about "why don't they contact us", maybe the Washington Invasion in 1952 and they didn't really receive a positive reception and is hardly ever even spoken of these days. |

The person who complains most, and is the most critical of others has the most to hide.
All truth passes through three stages. First, it is ridiculed. Second, it is violently opposed. Third, it is accepted as being self-evident. |

Grusch's testimony is exactly what I expected from someone with autism who has only been cleared to discuss certain information in a public setting. If you walked up on a crashed ship with dead bodies in it, could you say with certainty they're "aliens from another planet"? There is a very good reason they're using "Non-Human Intelligence" to describe these things instead of "Extraterrestrials" because my assumption is there is zero proof that they are beings from another planet in our universe but the layman jumps to that explanation because of Hollywood and a lack of open mindedness to other explanations. |
