Frustration Builds: Lawmakers want Answers on UFOs

I’ve never been one to pay attention to the UFO talk. But when top U.S officials, documents and even videos from military pilots became known, it would be ignorant to close your eyes and pretend there’s nothing to see here. More information is definitely needed.

And Congressional members feel the same way and their frustration is palpable.

“My primary interest in this topic is if there are … object[s] operating over restricted air space, it’s not ours and we don’t know whose it is, that’s a problem that we need to get to the bottom of,” said Sen. Marco Rubio (R-Fla.), vice chairman of the Senate Intelligence Committee.

“If there’s an explanation for it that’s being kept from Congress, then we need to force the issue. We’re not getting answers,” Rubio told The Hill.  

The Senate has adopted an amendment to an annual defense bill that would require the federal government to collect and disclose all records related to UFOs and UAPs unless a special review board determines they must be kept classified.  

The amendment was sponsored by Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-N.Y.) and Sen. Mike Rounds (R-S.D.), a member of the Senate Armed Services and Intelligence committees and is backed by Rubio and Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand (D-N.Y.), the chairwoman of the Armed Services subcommittee on emerging threats, as well as Sens. Todd Young (R-Ind.), a former Marine intelligence officer, and Martin Heinrich (D-N.M.).

Getting Elected is Trump’s “Get-out-of-jail-free-Card”

None of my friends have ever been indicted multiple times. As a matter of fact, none of my friends have never been indicted. I would like to think that’s the case for most Americans, but the sad fact is many Americans are getting ready to vote for someone with not one or two, but potentially a third indictment in Georgoa.

Trump has not been convicted of any crime yet, nor is it certain he will be. 

But as he faces a potential third criminal indictment, with an additional state-level probe into his actions ongoing in Georgia, the stakes for Trump to win the 2024 election are ratcheting up, with a victory next year perhaps the best way to insulate himself from conviction or jail time.

“It’s a huge factor,” said Sean Walsh, who served in the White House press office in the Reagan and George H.W. Bush administrations. 

“At a minimum, if he wins the presidency again then he can say he was vindicated in the public eye,” Walsh said. “No. 2, legally if he is president of the United States, he could potentially pardon himself …Trump’s best bet at getting out of all his legal issues is becoming president again. That’s his get out of jail free card.”

The lines between Trump’s political fortunes and his legal ones are steadily blurring as the cases pile up.
