    I also don’t know what to make of this. I err on the side of, it’s all bullshit. But i do find it all very interested. Extraterrestrial aliens is almost a thought terminating cliche because of how extraordinarily improbable it is. The thing that i find lights my imagination on fire. Is that Grusch has said the crafts are “terrestrial non-human”. Which is just as unlikely but atleast its something kind of new.

      I’ll be honest, I think that Grusch is a UFO nut who managed to work his way up the ranks and eventually get into power in a govt agency that is nominally supposed to be investigating spooky stuff like the tictacs and got mad that the rest of the agency wasn’t onboard with his conspiracy theory nuttyness and is basically trying to weaponize a congressional investigation against his former colleagues because they wouldn’t believe him. I err on the side of believing Commander Fravor, as his tale has been verified by the other pilot in the flight, and apparently has like 6 seperate radar tracks backing it up. It’s Grusch who’s going full conspiracy theory.

        It’s super interesting to me that there are so many people who find it more believable that aliens invented hyperdrives or 4d space folding or wormholes or whatever and came over here to buzz our fighter jets…rather than believe that these guys are nuts, lol. Your paragraph is BY FAR the most plausible explanation I’ve heard. Although I do find this whole thing real interesting and in general I support more investigations into Weird Shit.
