So "whistleblowers" like David Grusch were clandestinely hazed -- never realizing it?

U.S. military fabricated evidence of alien technology and allowed rumors to fester to cover up real secret-weapons programs

EXCERPT: [...] It turned out the witnesses had been victims of a bizarre hazing ritual.

For decades, certain new commanders of the Air Force’s most classified programs, as part of their induction briefings, would be handed a piece of paper with a photo of what looked like a flying saucer. The craft was described as an antigravity maneuvering vehicle.

The officers were told that the program they were joining, dubbed Yankee Blue, was part of an effort to reverse-engineer the technology on the craft. They were told never to mention it again. Many never learned it was fake.

Kirkpatrick found the practice had begun decades before, and appeared to continue still. The defense secretary’s office sent a memo out across the service in the spring of 2023 ordering the practice to stop immediately, but the damage was done.

Investigators are still trying to determine why officers had misled subordinates, whether as some type of loyalty test, a more deliberate attempt to deceive or something else... (MORE - missing details)

Chieftains of the "UFO true believer" sect still hoping Trump will fully jump on the bandwagon? From a doxastic standpoint, the latter has mixed conceptions about the issue, or is a partial skeptic.

And thereby unnecessarily direct the same kind of ire at Trump himself. Opportunists weigh the risks.

The next day, Elizondo wrote in an apparent veiled reference to Kirkpatrick on social media: “I left my job in protest, others leave in shame.” [...] After Trump’s election, Elizondo took his message back to Washington.

“Advanced technologies not made by our government, or any other government, are monitoring sensitive military installations around the globe,” he told a congressional hearing in November.

In January, he got an audience with the incoming president’s son, Donald Trump Jr., who devoted an episode of his podcast to the topic of a government alien coverup. “It seems that there’s evidence of nonhuman intelligence out there engaging with our planet,” Trump posited.

“Your dad’s going to go down in history as being the one who actually brought truth and transparency to this topic,” Elizondo said. “Or they’re going to go ahead and stonewall him.” (MORE - missing details)

Forget the military.

What about reports from those like Betty and Barney Hill, Whitley Streiber, Travis Walton the soldiers at Bentwater and many others. All close-up interactions with non-humans.
