The fact that every prez and VP has a garage or shoebox full of #ClassifiedDocuments isn't (merely) evidence of political impunity - it's also the latest absurd turn in the long-running true scandal: the American epidemic of #overclassification and excessive #secrecy. 1/ A photograph of the Militar...

CONGRESIONAL UPDATE: Contrary to earlier pessimistic assessments, it now appears that the long-stalled Intelligence Authorization Act (IAA), with its UAP-related cargo, will be enacted after all.
#ufotwitter
This is the bill to which the Senate Select Committee on Intelligence (SSCI) last June linked a call for an unclassified UAP report in 6 months. The IAA now has been incorporated into a massive end-of-session bill, containing coronavirus-relief provisions, funding for
federal agencies through Sept 2021, etc. This 5,593-page package is referred to as "the omni." Unless something goes badly awry, it should be signed into law within days.

UFOs 2020: This thread is intended as a catch-up for people whose attention is newly drawn to recent published revelations regarding interest, by some organs of the U.S. government, in certain UFO events. This thread touches on some significant developments of the past 3 years.
Credit for expanding interest in the subject owes much to groundbreaking journalists, chief among them Tim McMillan of @debriefmedia. Check out his remarkable 12-2-20 piece on classified UFO reports and photos being circulated among intelligence agencies.

Big news from Tim McMillan at The Debrief: A classified 2018 U.S. government agency intelligence report regarded “non-human” tech as one real possibility for UFOs encountered by military pilots. An "extremely clear" photo of a large, triangular UFO

was included in a second classified UFO report issued just a few months ago. All that follows are direct quotes from McMillan's @Debriefmedia article:

Several current and former officials with the DoD and individuals working for multiple U.S. intelligence agencies
told The Debrief that there was much more going on behind closed doors. Multiple sources confirmed for The Debrief that the UAPTF [Unidentified Aerial Phenomena Task Force, operating out of the Office of Naval Intelligence] had issued two classified intelligence position reports,

Playing with #DigitalFire:

1/7: In martial arts, one of the best moves is to take an attacker's weapon and turn it back on them. In 2016, that's just what #Beijing did – in #cyberspace:

2/7: After #American operatives used a particular bit of code to attack #Chinese computer systems, Chinese hackers took it, repurposed it, and used it to attack a bunch of US allies.
3/7: The Chinese simply seem to have spotted a #US #cyberintrusion and snatched the code, often developed at huge expense to #American taxpayers.

#President @realDonaldTrump's words, whether you accept his apology and his explanation, do not comport with his actions and his foreign policy toward #Russia. He has been one of the hardest presidents on Russia in recent memory.

#Trump #IntelligenceCommunity #Collusion
Where was the outrage when @BarackObama told Medvedev to inform #Putin "After my election I have more flexibility,"? I think much of the outrage being expressed- especially by #Republicans- is politically motivated.

#Trump #IntelligenceCommunity #Collusion #Russia
However, what @realDonaldTrump said was not right. It DID undermine our #IntelligenceCommunity, and it was a mistake. He has since corrected it and walked it back.
