Not really. There is good evidence that sightings of Big Foot are actually linked to the same department responsible for dealing with extraterrestrials on earth.

Why would you not link to that "good evidence" to support your claim?

The hair samples with "non-earth origin" DNA, the fact that the FBI investigation suddenly got shut down and two of the agents literally disappeared. The countless whistleblowers over the decades that linked Big Foot to the super solider program. Even David Grush says it's more likely than not linked.

A whistleblower is alleging that information has been kept from Congress. Why do you expect Congress to know that information?

The various congressional committees are supposed to know everything the federal government is doing so they can provide oversight, AFAIK. Something big like UFOs should have come up I'd imagine

Supposed to know is not the same as know. If they learn from a whistleblower that a program exists and has been kept secret from them, the people that are supposed to know about it, what would you have them do? Publicly investigate the claims, right? That's what they're doing.

Congress holds hearing about claims US government has UFO evidence

Glad to hear that, not like there is nothing else important happening in the US. What next, hearings on Big Foot :)

I don't think any military captains, and colonels will be testifying on oath to the existence of Bigfoot in front of Congress. So no, that's not next.

What's actually happening is pretty crazy and anyone who has a small amount of curiosity should give it some consideration. It seems foolish just to dismiss this with a scoff.

In theory, Congress should already know about the existence or not existence of aliens/UFOs, so what's the point here? To show that congress isn't being informed?

They do already know. They've already gotten a full briefing, and won't ask any questions that they don't know the answer to.

The purpose of the hearing is to do that again in public. In theory, the idea is to get the information distributed more widely. In practice, it's usually about grandstanding, so that the politicians get to make speeches on TV.

For additional context, the 14N (Air Force Intelligence officers) community broadly does not support this person or his claims. Take that for what it's worth

Why would they, if they have no knowledge of material he's seen and is testifying about?

The hearing is utterly bizarre and surreal. Like theater but everyone is keeping a straight face. (also, 'Mrs. Luna' is asking questions and her character name seems too on-the-nose.) Former commander says he didn't believe in UFOs and defends himself with "I never watched history channel or anything like that" -- as though that's a source for UFOs rather than...history.

The history channel stopped showing history content years ago, it’s been crank ufo/ancient aliens bullshit and crappy reality tv for at least a decade
