Several of these look like balloons and birds. Two of them have already leaked before. Both of those are missiles being viewed with an infrared camera. One of them shows a missile passing through the field of view rapidly with a motion blur streak behind it. The other shows a missile performing maneuvers and a camera artifact showing a star-like diffraction+aperture artifact around the bright IR light source. None of…

I'll add that I had the impression that the star-shaped one resembles a distant missile but could even be something even less interesting than a missile, given that at a few points later in the video, a parachute is visible and the heat source appears to be attached to it, suggesting that it could be a parachute flare.

It's the next distraction. They have a new one queued up every week until November.

Ooh, like an advent calendar of crazy! Me? I'd rather just keep reading through mentions of Trump in the Epstein files.

Or as one late-night host put it: "The Trump Files, featuring Jeffrey Epstein."

Like clockwork, every time something bad is happening this UFO nonsense is used to distract the masses. Update: I guess I am on some kind of list now. And with list I mean Plantirs big brother database.

I notice these "list" jokes are becoming more frequent and I guess our intuition is telling us something.

Feels like America is slowly becoming a technologically inferior version of China.

Sponsors

It’s a wild web of alliances if Biden and the DNC had evidence of Trump impropriety with Epstein which would be the absolute defined end of Trump, and refused to play even that small bit in the event that it implicated a Sponsor too.

That would not end Trump in any way. Just as it has not ended any politicians at all.

Consider: if Kamala ended up on the files, would any liberals vote for Trump?

But, for a random wealthy donor it’d be rather inconvenient to be in the files and they’ll pay for not being included in the releases.

And: a sponsor? Think: most sponsors, and the establishment politicians.

For anyone else who has a UFO-crazy uncle, I've found Mick West's YouTube channel to be invaluable https://www.youtube.com/c/mickwest . Mick is a retired video game programmer (Spider Man, Guitar Hero, Tony Hawk), who does extremely well-researched videos analyzing UFO claims. He's not flashy or trying to be entertaining, just thorough, evidence-based and scientifically rigorous. He'll even do controlled experiments,…

He doesn't seem to explain the recently popular "transients" though.

As someone who had a tattered copy of Von Daniken's Chariots of the Gods? back when, this would be a lot of fun to read through.

Hate the political implication of my comment all you want but one does at some point seriously have to question the motivations behind any action that's in the realm of, "Wow I'm surprised they did this".

So with The War having ground to an unsatisfactory halt, they're now releasing distraction #2. I wonder how many will be needed between now and November? Convince me I'm wrong.

What are they distracting us from?

the government wants to control the people so they can control the government /s
