This is pure propaganda. It's been astroturfed on 4chan and mainstream social media for weeks, though to great skepticism on the former. The UFO nut community (people who make their interest/belief in UFOs into their entire personality, to the neglect of all other considerations) is being weaponized for political leverage, just like the anti-vax and chemtrail communities were.

Okay here we go. I think this was two winters ago. They floated, sometimes would briefly hold position. Third time in the past decade I encountered them. I pulled to the side of the road. Nobody else pulled over or noticed. Encounter lasted maybe 5 minutes. I honestly don't remember. https://files.catbox.moe/05tysy.jpg https://files.catbox.moe/g46n6f.jpg https://files.catbox.moe/xz7bux.jpg

They will never release them. The distraction will morph into all the electoral subterfuge they will attempt as they increasingly fear losing power at the polls. They know what's in those files and what will happen to them if they lose in 2028. Thus they will be even more incentivized to behave badly. If gas prices double from here it will be less stupid distraction and more overt authoritarianism... the ICE question…

He doesn't seem to explain the recently popular "transients" though.
I think it takes time. I can only imagine the hours required to research, develop and shoot such well-evidenced explanations, given that part of his audience is true believers searching for any gap through which they can sustain their beliefs. But look at his website: https://www.metabunk.org . A quick search there for "Transients" returned several pages of posts, some from Mick himself. Frankly, I don't follow it th…
That's right. Not sure why you sound a bit unhappy with this.
In particular, a source can become more untrustworthy over time if the source is repeatedly proven to lie or be reckless about the truth. I'm not sure you can apply the same logic to "categories of claims". What is the rationale behind your implied frustration that people are not "learning" that some "categories of claims" tend to be untrue? (not to mention the arbitrary grouping of totally disparate ones like Chem-Trails and Flat Earth)

Because he legally was not allowed to as they were still in active use in legal proceedings.
Which legal proceedings and what date did they end? I looked into this and found no facts to support it.

#357According to US congresswoman Luna this is the first of several releases that will be coming out in the following weeks. Edit: I had a look at a bunch of the videos and didn't find anything remarkable, in my opinion. The witness testimonies read like so many others.
They may read like so many others, but what I don't understand is why special agents in the FBI would take it upon themselves to report strange phenomena. This seems like it would be a CLM, as the authority of their testimony is central to their function as federal LE. For example, see this document: https://www.war.gov/medialink/ufo/release_1/western_us_event... (from series of documents from incident data 9/1/23)

According to the resolution criteria, I would say that that market should trade much much higher than OP's hypothetical market. Any governmental agency stating that "Extraterrestrial life exists" would count. NASA/Seti finding evidence of algae on an exo planet or Io or something counts.
Which has already happened. Clinton basically announced the discovery of life on mars back in the 90s. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pHhZQWAtWyQ
This real announcement (with some edited visuals to make it look like he was delivering it inside the White House press room) was used in the movie Contact to seem related to the more extraordinary discovery of alien intelligence that was portrayed in that movie.

The White House objected to this use at the time, but never took any sort of legal action to have it removed or anything AFAIK.

Nothing can be known for sure, but I'd say directionally we are moving closer to these conclusions over time, especially as more evidence is released.
It is understandable for most people to still be skeptical because this topic is probably one of the most well kept secrets (thanks to psyops, stigma, proximity to other high strangeness phenomenon) in human history.

Or as one late-night host put it: "The Trump Files, featuring Jeffrey Epstein."
Kimmel does the Trump-Epstein Files (TM), but as we've been repeatedly told, he's not funny and has abysmal ratings and should be fired. He's so bad, he's put his entire parent company's broadcast license up for review. You realize how bad you must be for that to happen?
Colbert and Jon Stewart are more my flavor. Shame Colbert is coming to an end.
