Exploring UAP Discussions: A Thanksgiving Conversation Starter
Written on
Thanksgiving Table Talk
Thanksgiving in the U.S. can often lead to awkward moments as families and friends gather, waiting for the turkey to finish cooking. While football can entertain, it doesn’t appeal to everyone. Discussing politics? Definitely a no-go these days. Religion? That's a hard pass too. So what else is left to talk about?
At the risk of igniting a new family feud, why not share some insights about the latest developments in the realm of Unidentified Aerial Phenomena (UAP)? It's worth noting that what we used to call UFOs are now referred to as UAP, and there are significant updates to discuss.
The 2022 National Defense Authorization Act
The language included in the 2022 National Defense Authorization Act (still awaiting a vote) raises crucial questions and presents opportunities for transparency and research related to UAP. Numerous representatives from both the House and Senate have expressed keen interest in acquiring advanced UAP technology and have proposed legislation aimed at uncovering the truth.
For instance, the Act stipulates that by October 31, 2022, and annually thereafter until 2026, the Secretary, in collaboration with the Director, must submit reports to Congress about UAP. Each report is to include updates on attempts to capture or utilize any discovered UAP.
This language could be interpreted in a couple of ways. It might suggest that Congress believes foreign adversaries have surpassed the U.S. in possessing unassailable first-strike capabilities, marking a significant intelligence failure. This could explain the sudden surge of interest in UAPs.
However, it's puzzling that the U.S. has not faced any attacks from adversaries equipped with such advanced technology. Lawmakers also recognize that these phenomena are not of American origin. A report from The New York Times cited unnamed officials who stated that UAP incidents over the past two decades were not derived from any U.S. military or advanced government technology.

Recent statements indicate that government officials have found no evidence of advanced technology from Russia or China, nor from extraterrestrial beings. As it stands, UAPs appear to be neither American nor adversarial technologies, leaving us with a dwindling list of potential explanations.
Dr. Eric Davis and Congressional Briefings
Dr. Eric Davis, a former consultant for the Pentagon's UFO program, recently briefed congressional intelligence committees about what he described as "off-world vehicles not made on this Earth." This aligns with reports from The New York Times regarding the government's ongoing research into extraterrestrial technology.
Ralph Blumenthal, during an appearance on Jimmy Church's Fade to Black, stated that Eric Davis had provided crucial briefings to Congress, complete with slides showcasing the recovery of materials from UFO incidents.
Clearly, some members of Congress have been aware for some time that the U.S. possesses exotic materials and possibly vehicles. This reinforces two key points: neither the U.S. nor its adversaries currently utilize this advanced technology, and mastering it is vital for national security.
The Question of Engagement
While it may sound absurd, the idea that the U.S. might attempt to shoot down UAPs cannot be dismissed entirely. Any attack on a potentially peaceful entity could provoke an immense and justified retaliatory response, leading to dire consequences.
One might wonder if Congress would consider capturing an alien craft to gain an advantage over adversaries. Or could it be that unraveling this technological mystery requires further pieces of the puzzle?
The Ultimate Gamble
As discussed previously, Ross Coulthart mentioned on a podcast that there has been serious consideration of offensively trying to bring down UAPs. In a recent interview, he elaborated on claims made by former U.S. SCI communications officer Bob Fish, who mentioned that frequencies from UAP entering Earth's atmosphere were detected as far back as 40 years ago.
Coulthart explained that multiple sources informed him that not only has the U.S. made attempts to shoot down these objects, but it continues to do so, even in space. Allegedly, the U.S. military is exploring ways to use these frequencies to bring down UAPs, a strategy that raises ethical concerns.
It’s conceivable that a peaceful civilization, provoked without cause, might retaliate, perhaps by demonstrating their capabilities at sensitive military sites.
While this may be a heavy topic to bring up during Thanksgiving, if framed thoughtfully, it could spark meaningful discussions among your fellow diners. After all, there’s much to be grateful for — including our continued existence amidst such mysteries.
