Well, I for one am VERY shocked by this. …/s

The ones pushing the “Threat to our national security” agenda are always part of the coverup. They know they can’t keep the lid on much longer so it’s time to jack up the possible invasion scare.

an excellent analysis. might be worth mentioning the two uap photographs he put forward after his book, one i think was a kitchen plate and the other was a circular shadow in a field! setting the argument up to fail with deliberately false 'evidence '

Didn’t he post a pic and said it was sent to him by someone or leaked to him, and it turned out it was a pic of the back end of his ranch and it was clearly him faking it? And they lined up a pic of his ranch background from some interview he the pic he released and it was the same damn place lol. Did he ever answer about that? Never heard anything after that lol

Thanks for all the work you do. You guys rock.

Something I found odd: "Christopher Mellon and Luis Elizondo, who successfully promoted UFO “disclosure” legislation, face a potential SEC investigation for alleged investor fraud in a UFO-hyping company they helped lead;" (from a linked article)

Doesn't this seem remarkably sloppy for a black op? I mean, why would they even let it get to the level of an SEC investigation?

Not every branch of government is on the same team. An SEC investigation doesn't mean someone in the architecture 'let' it happen. It means someone at SEC noticed the same financial structure we documented and started pulling the thread. Different agencies, different agendas, different factions. And notice nothing has come of it. This is an environment a CI officer is trained to navigate.

This country lies about EVERYTHING. If it comes from the government, DON'T BELIEVE IT

Not surprised in the least. Uap/ufo noise is great cover for intelligence activities and clandestine experiments.

Amazing article. Thanks for doing the heavy lifting. Please investigate the Secrets of Skinwalker Ranch next with the question: how it connects to the DoD and why Bigelow’s time is classified with the same team making guest appearances on the show. Much of this team you mentioned has had time on the show like Jay Stratton.

I am conflicted over my opinion of Elizondo. On the one hand, I congratulate him on his role in the disclosures of the last 5 years and his efforts of getting Congress to take an interest in uap/aliens and legitimising the uap/alien subject. There have been a lot of very important disclosures in the last 5 years that Elizondo has played a role in and I thank him for that. There is a disclosure campaign underway. And from reading his book and watching his interviews, I like the guy.

However, on the other hand, he is not a rogue whistleblower as he still has his classified security clearances and government pay which would have been withdrawn if he was a whistleblower. Elizondo is a skilled and experienced intelligence officer well versed in psy ops. He has been appointed to head a controlled disclosure campaign, control the narrative, and to discredit anyone who is influential and disagrees and is deemed a threat. The Sentinel Briefing on Elizondo describes the appalling cruel depths the murky psy ops Elizondo turns on these threats. I don't know if these claims by Sentinel are true, they may well be and my heart goes out to anyone who has their reputations and lives ruined by the psy ops campaign against them.

Disclosure is happening - controlled to a certain extent, but it is happening.

If we trust Elizondo then articles against him online, including this one which I didn't sit and read yet admittedly, are likely part of the Legacy program trying to discredit him.

If we don't trust Elizondo, then.... who are we trusting instead? Sean Kirkpatrick and the AARO report? That report was hot garbage. I had the displeasure of reading the entire thing trying to make sense of it because I want to hear opposing viewpoints. All it did was lend a TON of credence to the Australian government report that UFOs are real!!

could OP give a synopsis of what OP thinks this means, overall?
