UAPer/UFOlogist dies & goes to heaven. God says "you were such a pious person that I will grant you the whole truth about any question you have." UAPer/UFOlogist: "Have aliens ever visited Earth?" God: "No." UAPer/UFOlogist: "This cover-up goes even higher than I thought."

"If Rubio cannot determine whether highly cleared officials are telling the truth or lying, that raises questions as troubling as those around UAPs." Indeed @shellenberger and good on you for redirecting the conversation from aliens (for which we have no evidence) to government
Secretary of State Marco Rubio told Fox News last night that the interview he gave for the new documentary film, “The Age of Disclosure,” about unidentified aerial phenomena (UAP) or what used to be called UFOs, was “three or four years ago when I was in the Senate,” that “I was

Hey Michael Shermer, for someone that preaches transparency, why do you not enumerate the individual donor amounts for your non-profit The Skeptic Society? $765,000 in revenue for 2024, a little birdie told me you have some very large donations. @michaelshermer

I'm pro-disclosure @OliverWood2017 But what if disclosure = there are no aliens here, no back-engineered ships, etc.? That is, at what point will UAP disclosure proponents change their belief that the US gov. has ETI? If the answer is "never" then this is religion not science.
This is not necessarily a blow to Disclosure, but it wasn’t what I had hoped for from Marco Rubio. I was disappointed, how could anyone who is pro-Disclosure not be. BUT, it MIGHT just mean that Marco Rubio doesn’t want to get ahead of any official statements that might be

What is being disclosed is that UAPers are fabulists pushing a religious-like belief in aliens as deities watching over us, saving us from ourselves, and even giving us unlimited free energy! If only. Here's the full quote from Marco Rubio on Fox News last night, negating

UAPers insist sightings are: 1. Foreign assets 2. U.S. secret tech 3. Extraterrestrials They're leaving out: 4. Ordinary terrestrial (from UFOlogist Leslie Kean's book UFOs, on what 95% or all sightings are): weather balloons, flares, sky lanterns, planes flying in formation,

Here's the Marco Rubio quote I read on WGNTV "I was describing what people had said to me, not things that I have firsthand knowledge of in that regard. Little bit of selective editing, but it's okay, because, you know, you're trying to sell a show there." https://t.co/ZIFZGNuoL9

On WGNTV Chicago this morning I explained why I remain skeptical that the US government has aliens & spaceships & read the quote from Marco Rubio that The Age of Disclosure film selectively edited him 3-4 years ago & he knows of no such program. https://t.co/KGjJYVrplM

Rubio says the creators of "The Age of Disclosure" did "some selective editing" to take his words out of context "to sell a show". Curious if @Dan_Farah will respond to this.

. @MiddleOfMayhem my modifier "mainstream" was to signify people like Elizabeth Vargas on News Nation, Anderson Cooper on CNN, New York Times editors, etc. You are a first rate independent journalist who has been fearless in challenging UAPers. If only MSM would follow your lead!
@michaelshermer "I know of no mainstream media journalists who have challenged him to answer the Pentagon’s denial of his employment." Uh... what? Let me introduce myself. https://t.co/k4z5ugg2dx

And there it is. Marco Rubio finally discloses... he has no knowledge of aliens. Listen-up everyone: there is no disclosure of aliens coming. There never was and never will be. But, please, prove me wrong with evidence: show us all the alien bodies & spaceships!
🚨 BREAKING: Secretary of State Marco Rubio distances himself from "The Age of Disclosure", a new UFO documentary which he appears in. Rubio says his interview was shot "3-4 years ago", he has no knowledge of aliens, and thinks UFO whistleblowers might be "liars or crazy"

. @shellenberger : a "senior advisor" to @marcorubio says “We are headed toward massive disclosure" of a government program to back-engineer alien spaceships. Who is this person and why, oh why, is the UFO/UAP topic always informed by unnamed sources? https://t.co/Dz7tYJx4pY

Another failure of the educational system, with untold implications. From our 2024 survey of ~3000 American adults:
Over 1/3 of white women in America, and over 2/3s of black women, believe "white people invented slavery." 55% of Millennial liberals believe "white people invented slavery." These data are from our latest representative study of Americans, conducted in Fall of last year. More

Bret Baier at Fox is an exception to my complaint about journalists. In this segment (link below) he is fair in listening to the UAPers, while also making it clear that there STILL no clear evidence of a government cover-up (President Carter: nothing. President Trump: nothing.
A few thoughts I offered to a journalist today on why journalists are so soft on UAPers/UFOlogists: In my review of The Age of Disclosure I include two quotes from Pentagon officials (included in the film), stating that Lue Elizondo never worked on their UAP program AATIP. Why

Best analysis of Nick Fuentes I've read by @coldxman But why any podcaster would want to talk to him at all is baffling. He's just spouting David Irving talking points. Know what these guys hate more than being challenged by journalists? Being ignored. https://t.co/JdPF9wuKVI

Nick Fuentes has slipped into the mainstream by presenting one version of himself to popular podcast hosts and another to his base, writes Coleman Hughes for The Free Press.

Another triangular UAP. The aliens were smart enough to add blinking lights matching those of commercial airliners so as to dupe dogmatic skeptics into ignoring what is really going on. Disclosure of the truth is coming soon…
