A point I'd like to highlight, a possible silver lining:
"Trump is reminding a great many Americans why multilateral cooperation and interdependence are... generally to our benefit and that Trump doesn’t act as a faithful steward of them. Instead, he’s wrecking them out of incompetence and malice."
Not once does this story mention that offering a federal job in exchange for a political favor is a crime
We don’t often look for qualities like “self-efficacy” and “growth mindset” in our leaders, but I explain in my Substack why we should open.substack.com/pub/asharang...
Trump's playbook has a name: Strongman takes power
Crushes govt, buys the media & controls the arts
It worked for Putin, Orban & Erdogan
It's not working here
This week we fought back on all four fronts — here's how on @contrariannews.org -TN
Statutes current through all legislation from First Regular and Extraordinary Sessions, 75th General Assembly (2025). Colorado Revised Statutes Annotated > Title 1.

Encouraging withdrawal from campaign prohibited. No person shall offer or give any candidate or candidate committee any money or any other thing of value for the purpose of encouraging the withdrawal of the candidate's candidacy, nor shall any candidate offer to withdraw a candidacy in return for money or any other thing of value.
Also a Colorado state crime.
To all those who are saying "I did not vote for this, this is not what I voted for when I voted for him!" -
Yes, you did. Yes, you did. Yes, you did.
We told you. We warned you. You didn't listen.
By me: ICE’s new warrantless policy has made Trump the leader of the pro-invasion party now. Home invasions, that is www.ms.now/opinion/ice-...
Filmmaker James Fox suggests that the Varginha witnesses at tomorrow’s UAP press conference in D.C. will provide evidence directly to members of Congress.
“I think this is the case that’s gonna prove once and for all the crash retrieval witnesses involving the United States Government.”
No, I don't know him. I have friends who were in the documentary and have met others that were in it. I do not know Lue or any of his buddies. As an aside, that's why I take some of the criticism more personally than I should. It feels like smears against friends of mine.
I'm with you there. The process is exhausting and frustrating. Most days I just don't have the patience for it. It's hard to stay engaged with this topic and not just completely lose your mind.
Also, I want to make it clear that I really appreciate all the work that you and Garrett do. I just disagree with you on this one thing. I think we would agree on nearly everything else. You guys do really good work.
I agree with you about Lue. He's one of the biggest frauds in this field. Very little he says about his own experience is true and I can't wait for the truth to come out. He absolutely did not run "AATIP".
Agree 1000%. Let them all fry so we can move on.
I do agree with you that it would be very disappointing for people who were expecting much new to be found in this movie. That's a valid criticism, but I don't think that was the goal of the movie in the first place. The goal is to get the message to people who don't normally pay attention.
You're missing the point. This movie was not aimed for those of us who've been following this topic for years. We didn't get much new in it. But the people who haven't been following it are already starting to pay more attention. That is a good thing.
I agree that it does nothing if you ignore all the obvious evidence that it is doing something.
Physicists at the University of Albany have launched UAlbany Project X, a research initiative funded by an endowment focusing on studying unidentified aerial phenomena to advance scientific investigations, clarify misconceptions, and expand their approaches with add… #ufo #uap #aliens #ovni #ufosky
Again, show me the evidence. If you've got it, show me. If all you've got is speculation then I'm not interested in continuing this ridiculous discussion. But I do change my mind based on evidence. If you got it, I'm open to it.
I suppose the fact that people who don't even pay attention to the topic are now talking about it and it's in the news far more than it ever has been before is irrelevant?
I despise Thiel as much more than you guys do, but this is a stretch. You're speculating based on other people's speculation. Show me some evidence.
Still not seeing any evidence here pal.
I agree. And definitely not a bad idea.
Kirk McConnell, a longtime Congressional staffer, said that credible sources have told Senators in his presence that the U.S. government has run a classified UFO crash retrieval and reverse engineering program for decades.
Are you suggesting that Founder's Fund funding Density Inc. in the amount of $12M is the same as "Peter Thiel financed AoD"?
If you can prove otherwise, please do. I follow the evidence, so if you have the evidence, I absolutely would consider it fairly and confront my contacts with that evidence to get answers.
Except it wasn't. I personally know people involved in the making of AoD. I have asked them this directly. It's simply not true. Whoever told you that is lying to you. I despise Thiel, so I asked my contact about it months ago and got my answer.
What's really not healthy is people making stuff up, like suggesting Peter Thiel financed AoD. That simply isn't true, and I believe I told this to Klaus some time ago, but I may be misremembering who I had that discussion with.
The documentary was not funded by Peter Thiel. I don't know why people keep saying that.
Greer is so mad that the disclosure movement has moved on without him. lol
The confusion is unnecessary. AAWSAP was the official name, AATIP was a nickname because they were trying to keep the official name a secret. Years later, Stratton led an informal group that continued to investigate UAP, which they called AATIP, using the previous nickname for AAWSAP.
