There's actually a legal framework. Aircraft (and a lot of other things) have to announce to the FAA when they plan to enter U.S. airspace, but lightweight balloons do not. So if NORAD was looking for a "scramble the interceptors" type of situation, the balloons would be under the radar...

Dramatic necessity. The actors should be seen to do something.

If I were to hoax this, I would use a rectangular piece of blue filter, tape it to a glass pane, and hold it in front of the camera at some distance. If I didn't align it very carefully, the filter would clip a beam it wasn't supposed to clip (or partially miss a beam). Or, you know, select a...

All of it shines through. Light throws no shadow.

@Ann K 's quote from mediabiasfactcheck already sorted The Federalist as "far-right biased". I expect you equating that with "Republican" could be considered a slight to Republicans? And no, "the Federalist is Republican" is not supported by @John J. 's post. Do the work and find the quotes...

It makes me think Kirkpatrick nailed the operation in the historical AARO report (and his essays), their government influence has evaporated as a result, and they know it. Or maybe it's because of the upcoming election.

NO. The article is NOT "factually correct". Excerpted falsehoods: In 2020, the World Economic Forum (which promotes C40 Cities on its website) introduced “The Great Reset,” which seeks to use the Covid-19 pandemic as a point from which to launch a global reset of society to supposedly combat...

The energy remains the same, it just spreads out more. But if the area it spreads to is still smaller as what we'd perceive through atmospheric diffraction and glare, then it might as well be a point source.

I grabbed this from one of Stephen Greenstreet's videos.

Just to state the obvious: the idea behind having a progressive target and an ambitious target is ostensibly to frame the progressive target such that people think, "look, that's not too bad". As such (and as stated), the ambitious target is impossible and not intended to be reached (in that...

Louis Elizondo's t-shirt size isn't large, it's .

From the Harris Poll newsletter: What’s going on here? Personal finances skew economic perceptions: Two-thirds (66%) say it’s difficult to be happy about positive economic news when they feel financially squeezed each month. Wary eyes cast distrust toward the media: Nearly two-thirds (62%)...

I contend that for an observer close to the laser (say, an arm's length), a point "a few hundred meters" along the beam is visually indistinguishable from the beam's vanishing point, where it would appear to end due to perspective. This is because the vanishing point is always the same distance...

It would work like civil forfeiture does right now. "Nice technology you got there, can you tell us where it's from? No? Well, that's an unknown origin then, and we're keeping it." If Avi Loeb says his spherules are melted-down alien probes, the UDG can seize them; if he says they're geological...

I have a suspicion that this is going to be another easy debunk for y'all, but I can't quite put my finger on what's wrong with it... Source: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cX4X_xIMP_g

Essentially, fishing for birds.

People who don't believe in UFOs don't care. UFO lobbyists don't want to hand their "metamaterials" and other mysteries to the USG/AARO (that's the "eminent domain" bit). I think the AARO historical report, and their ongoing mission, has made the records review panel largely superfluous. Any...

part of the reason why "the economy" is doing so well is that companies have been raising prices and their profits with it. If the economy is doing well, it doesn't necessarily mean consumers are.

With other bunk, like Covid vaccine safety or the 2020 election, belief in bunk varies strongly by party association. With this economic bunk, the response is still slanted by party, but not by a lot. From the above article: That means the cause runs deeper than Donald Trump or Fox News.
