MAGA congressman says Americans would become ‘unglued’ if they hear the same briefings on aliens he gets

More likely that our enemies have much stronger military capabilities than the average citizen would believe and that we are 100% not safe from mainland attacks.

IDGAF about aliens unless they are here to kill the rich.

>I do not need to further expand the list of the achievements of the second half of our century. What I do want to do is to discuss some generalities about their history and the sociology which spawned them. My first point is that this period of rapid expansion was also a period of centrifugal fragmentation of physics. A somewhat self-appointed elite had already broken off in the 1930s from the study of atoms and molecules to focus on the nucleus; this was the group who formed the Manhattan Project and its offshoots during the war. After the war they had the choice of two paths. Many remained primarily concerned with weapon design and military technology, and with advising the government, primarily in military matters. Possibly the most visible and controversial example has been Edward Teller. Many others returned to their universities or to national laboratories and followed the natural evolution of their subject from nuclear physics to mesons and other subnuclear particles, or into modern astrophysics, in either case learning to spend money in gigantic amounts and to build giant accelerators. A large coterie followed both paths in different mixes, and formed a most influential group of scientist advisors, including, for instance, a considerable number of members of such groups as JASON and the Institute for Defense Analysis. >was less than a decade after the war that a definite culture which could be called "Big Science" grew up, largely out of this nucleus which had been involved in the Manhattan Project. There were other contributors: for instance, the hope of fusion energy by magnetic or inertial confinement came to claim large subventions from the US, British and Soviet Governments. And, at least at first, the large research fission reactors at Brookhaven, Oak Ridge, Harwell, Chalk River, and eventually Grenoble were seen as "big science" because they cost on a comparable scale, but they were soon taken over as "user" facilities by large coteries of "small" scientists. The military fission program, now known to have been callously misrun, fell out of the hands of nuclear physicists, although it still taints their reputation. Finally, so-called "space science" developed rather independently as a creation of the "**military-industrial complex**" on the coat-tails of which many physicists came eventually to ride, with microgravity experiments of uniformly dubious value as well as some quite meaningful astrophysical probes and investigations into solar system physics. >That Big Science culture in the USA, and similar groups else- where, tended to have separate, direct access to government and hence to funding sources. It was independent to a great extent of the rest of science, of which it was never a majority component except in funding. In the USA NASA, the Department of Energy (earlier the AEC), and military support operated outside of the standard peer review mecha- nisms. (The DOE funded other science, but from a separate budget.) The sums involved precluded private support, either by industry, universities, or private foundations; the former came to view Big Science not as an investment but as a "cash cow", a source of very helpful overhead charges and of enlargement of the bureaucracy, if not of actual profits.

Yep

>...  supporting and advocating the closet thing possible to the biblical description of the anti-Christ. while comparing him to Jesus

Yep. Mentioned this to my family a few hours ago. It’s not JD Vance’s belief that UFOs are demons that I have an issue with, but that he wants to establish an American Theocracy.

I hope they exist and take over. Can't be worse than what we have.

The aliens are demons, according to [alien and Jesus expert J.D. Vance](https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2026/mar/30/jd-vance-alien-ufo-are-demons).

I dunno, it might work on MAGA, but MAGA has shrunk by at least 10% in the past year and that 10% plus the entirety of literally everybody to the left of MAGA wants the Epstein files released Edit: added context

Yeah, this is likely it. A new diversion for their base.

"It's amazing. That demonic UFO looks *just* like an ottoman with a hole in it, and some strange stains."

I did not know about the waffle house teleportation claim. My god. What the actual f***.

Minnesotans braved freezing temperatures to stand up for their fellow man. Even after killing/"detaining" a few citizens, they show up, day after day, blowing whistles so people can get to safety, walking kids to school, taking their neighbors meals or groceries. The Epstein class needs a enemy to rally people behind, and enough Americans are saying "Not my neighbor". So now there is talk of aliens as demons, and aliens as a threat and them testing the waters to see if they can rally us to hurt ourselves for them on that threat. Fascism always needs a threat. Always. Someone has to be the reason why the non-ruling class has a hard, awful life.

"Please stop thinking about the Epstein files!"

I just want to know what’s the whole point of said scam. 

"Talk about aliens instead of all our fuckups!! Please!!!!"

I kinda miss when UFOs and aliens were a fun bipartisan thing. John Podesta and Harry Reid were into this stuff too. Podesta even wrote forewards on UFO books and appeared on "documentaries."

I want that job so badly. 😆

Mulder and Scully's day off.

It's also a bunch of scientifically illiterate weirdos presenting to a bunch of scientifically illiterate weirdos who are impressed by terms like "unknown aerial phenomenon" and "non-human biologics" and dazzled by videos of camera artifacts and lens smudges.

Why not, let start a war with ET while we are at it.
