    The corruption is clear as day with these people. I still have hope for the amendment, since there seems to be strong support for it outside of these individuals. Though you never know what kind of pull they may have over others.

    Regardless, this amendment is already at least a small win. Their fight to keep the amendment out against the support for disclosure throughout Congress serve as indirect confirmation of Grusch’s claims. First being that the government and its contractors are in possession of technology of unknown or NHI origin. And, most evident here, that these programs operate outside the control and oversight of Congress.

    A side note, this article’s author, Marik Von Rennenkampff, seems to do a great job with citation throughout their articles. Even though they may be listed as opinion articles, the facts presented speak for themselves.

      Any forward progress is progress nonetheless. I agree with your frustration, however, I believe that regardless of this amendment, we have already reached the tipping point. Too much has come out and too many within the govt are aware.

        The latest That UFO Podcast with Steve Basset goes into some detail about how the vast majority of the bill will probably make it through (with reasonable explanations).

        Worth a listen!

          That’s great news. I’d like to know his source. I’ll give it a listen. You should post it in the community!
