How much will the hearings on UFOs take away from the J6 hearings?

We do not need any distractions for the J6 Hearings.
I. like so many other Americans, want to know about UFOs. I have been interested since I was a kid 75 years ago. However, what is happening right here, right now on earth and in America is much more important to me and my family.

I swear, it's all too much.

on and refuse to consider the consequences of this. I believe the election will be won on Roe.

I can follow the 1/6 investigations and still watch Gentleman Jack and Winning Time. People who are interested will still tune into the 1/6 hearings in June.

I really don't think the UFO stuff will affect the 1/6 hearings viewership. If they were held at the same time that would be a different thing.

And I think it is highly unlikely that the hearings would be held at the same time. I'm sure that the 1/6 hearings will be given priority over any other congressional hearings.

I locked him in my shed overnight, by morning he was gone.

I still have his spaceship a PXR-5, it's up on blocks.

Seriously, they will try anything to cover up J6!

5. I don't think UFOs are as political. Plus, I hope there are aliens out there, not just unidentified

I suppose however it would be a flying saucer if someone picked it up and threw it like a frisbee.

7. Never thought of that. I'm going t have to pay attention to how the evening news deals with this.

You may be right about this, especially if they are occuring simultaneously (are they?). The MSM will almost certainly show soundbites (which is typically all they do anyway) of the UFO hearing at greater frequency and length than the J6 hearings. Afterall, that's the more intriguing stuff that enquiring minds want to know about.

9. Our government has a history of using UFOs in their psychological operations.

Personally, I think the footage released by the Pentagon has more mundane explanations than "aliens".

They need to bring in experts in photography, lenses, and automated camera tracking.

12. They already have, other wise they wouldn't have said anything about the existing evidence

they have on hand already, presented the evidence to their scientists to analyze, etc. prior to being released.

18. I, like you, have been interested in UFO's since I was a kid

for me, that was 60+ years ago. Today, not so much. Well, no, that's not true. I'm interested, still... and I do wish for a big "The Day the Earth Stood Still" moment... anything to save us from ourselves, it seems. But today with all the drones, especially the new ones they're coming out with, my mind immediately goes to them and AI controlled flying objects. IOW, UFO's that can probably be readily identifiable with a little bit of thought. They can already do so much with AI, that it takes some of the "magic" out of the possibilities, for me. Strike another bit of imaginative innocence from my childhood, I guess (gryn).
