1/5) Sen. Marco Rubio (R-Fl.), acting chair, Senate Intelligence Cmte: "There are things flying over your military bases, and you don't know what they are... and they exhibit, potentially, technologies that you don't have at your own disposal -- #ufo
2/5) "that to me is a national security risk, and one that we should be looking into." Here is what the committee's top Democrat, Sen. Mark Warner (D-Va.), said following a classified Navy briefing on the same topic: "I think people are taking this much more seriously...
3/5) "One of the key takeaways I have is the military and others are taking this issue seriously, which I think in previous generations may not have been the case." (June 20, 2019)
4/5) Here is the pertinent language in the report on the Fiscal Year 2021 Intelligence Authorization bill (S. 3905), approved by the Senate Select Committee on Intelligence on June 17, 2020.

1/5) At link in #5, a new "gateway" page to all of my five years of investigative reports covering many UFO-alien claims of Ray Stanford-- claims spanning the 1950s right up to today. This new portal page contains short descriptions of, and
2/5) links to, my earlier articles:
-- "Ray Stanford's Alien-Claims Lifetime Achievement Award": An overview of Ray Stanford's six decades of grandiose, unsubstantiated claims related to UFOs and extraterrestrials--from purported contacts with the "Space Brothers" in the 1950s,

CONGRESS UPDATE:
U.S. SENATE PASSES MULTIPLE
UAP/UFO MEASURES
1) The U.S. Senate today (July 27, 2023) passed a National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA), 86-11, that contains multiple and far-reaching provisions related to Unidentified Anomalous Phenomena (UAP/UFOs). https://t.co/R5VHaBmtS1twitter.com/i/web/status/1…
2) The Senate added the entire Intelligence Authorization Act (IAA) to the FY 2024 NDAA, including UAP-related provisions earlier approved by the Senate Select Committee on Intelligence (with some revisions).
3) After approving the final NDAA-IAA package under the bill number H.R. 2670, the Senate sent it to a conference committee with the House of Representatives. There was only one minor UAP-related provision in the NDAA version that the House passed on July 14.
1/25) Deep-dive research by @SignalsIntelUFO shows that in 1980, Bob Lazar married a woman 16 years his senior, Carol, previously convicted of 2nd-degree murder for armed assistance to Hells Angels in committing a brutal slaying. Why is this pertinent? medium.com/@signalsintell…
2/25) The Knapp-Corbell fable of Bob Lazar, senior physicist, is very far removed from the sordid realities of the life of a serial scam artist during the 1980s, as revealed by research of Tom Mahood in the 1990s, and now in many interviews and document finds by @SignalsIntelUFO.
3/25) Lazar has claimed that he was granted a "Q" security clearance (equivalent to Top Secret) less than two years after his wedding, to work on secret stuff at Los Alamos National Laboratory. Lazar was not actually employed by LANL. Rather, he worked briefly AT the facility for
1/5) Here again is a link to the slideshow presented on January 11, 2023, by Sean Kirkpatrick, Ph.D., director of the DoD's All-domain Anomaly Resolution Office (AARO), to the Transportation Research Board, about AARO's "UAP Mission & Civil Aviation." drive.google.com/file/d/1Lln8JF…
2/5) "[The] consequence of UAP in the vicinity of strategic capabilities is high, potentially threatening strategic deterrence and safety of civil society. DoD [is] strengthening observations and reporting capabilities near US strategic capabilities and critical infrastructure."
3/5) "Unidentified Anomalous Phenomena are sources of anomalous spaceborne, airborne, seaborne or transmedium observations that are not yet attributable to known actors or causes...material, behavioral, or capability attributes perceived to be beyond known performance envelopes."
1/11) A PROPOSAL NASA WILL SURELY DECLINE: @JeremyCorbell is promoting a column by The Toronto Star's "pop culture columnist," @vinaymenon. Menon suggests that the recently constituted NASA UAP study team should bring on Bob Lazar as a consultant, asserting that #ufotwitter
2/11) "nothing Lazar said has ever been disproven," and "the man is a brilliant scientist." In the real world, however, Lazar is no scientist at all, but a man with only a high-school diploma, who brazenly fabricated claims to have earned Masters degrees from CalTech and MIT.
3/11) Lazar possesses some modest technical skills, and a disarming matter-of-fact manner of peddling manifest bullshit. Each remarkable claim collapses under critical investigation. Neither Lazar nor his promoters submit to sustained questioning or debate with informed skeptics.
1/13) The "United States Department of Naval Intelligence," an agency Bob Lazar claimed employed him for captive-UFO studies in 1988-89, has never existed, two key authorities on Navy intelligence history (both former 2-star admirals, one now the Navy's head historian) told me.
2/13) Bob Lazar, in muddled and conflicting statements, has claimed that a 1989 W-2 form from the IRS proved that he had worked for a "United States Department of Naval Intelligence." Lazar promotors such as Jeremy Corbell have made much of the document. #ufotwitter #BobLazar
3/13) But in a 10-19-22 email, Samuel J. Cox, Director of the U.S. Navy's Naval History and Heritage Command (NHHC), told me no such organization ever existed. "There has been no Department of Naval Intelligence, either external or internal to the Department of the Navy."
