The fact that Congress is not moving heaven and earth to get answers is killing my ability to believe any of this.


Just go with me on this thought experiment:

Imagine that you’ve been told there is hard evidence of the most astonishing scientific, physical, and biological discovery in all of human history.

Imagine you work in Congress, and have the clearance and legal power to investigate this, to hold field hearings, to control the power of the purse.

And imagine you obviously realize that you could be one of the few people in government whose name would forever live on in History for exposing this to the public.

Would you be able to sleep for even a single night in this position, without personally purchasing a plane ticket, if you had to, to go hold a field hearing and SEE, with your own eyes, this earth-shattering evidence in person? When you read comments from reps like Burlison, who just give “Yeah that’s interesting, I’ll have to talk to an attorney and get back to you,” can you relate, at all, on even a human level?

The incentives are all there. Basic curiosity that no human could ignore. Personal fame and legacy. The legal power to pursue it.

Several people in Congress are paying lip service to the idea that they believe this. No one in Congress is *behaving* as if they believe it.

Which leads me to believe that this is far more likely to be some sort of psyop campaign, than it is to be real.
