Hi Everyone,
I was in the home stretch of a substantially enlarged article on the history of Russian ufology (to be posted here soon) when I learned of the 4th Trump White House UAP tranche (as they are calling it). So of course I stopped everything I was doing to review the files.
And I did go through every one of them. 39, by my count. Smaller than the others, but I have to say, not useless. Both editions of the very historically important Air Force intelligence report on flying saucers from December 1948 (revised in April 1949). It’s difficult to overstate the importance of that document, and I did take some time to explain just why it matters. Several other very significant historical documents in there.
I realize some people don’t care very much about the old history. They want photos of bodies or craft. Well, there wasn’t anything like that, obviously. But along with the documents were some (to me at least) genuinely interesting videos. Of course, the same problem as before: no metadata or other technical information required to make a proper analysis. So ultimately not all that helpful. Still, interesting and worth at least a quick look.
Some duds in there, too. Overall, I found this release to be similar to the others: interesting, for sure, especially from a historical point of view. Disclosure? Of course not!

Shout out to Donald Keyhoe. Also I’m happy to have someone probably more qualified than anyone else to talk about the history of the green fireballs and the flap in the 40s. I read volume 1 of national security and UFOs and it’s like I’m reading it again with government approval this time! Last time it was a conspiracy! Now it’s like ok we lied you got us! It’s been that way since the beginning of this process re reading your book. By the way I don’t think the Russians had this tech but I think the UFOs were somehow interested in the Cold War and our drama that we had from 47 to the collapse of the Soviet Union.
The next big UFO reveal may relate to structured objects on the moon.
On Apollo 16 Charles Duke saw a structured wall which NASA officials ignored when he excitedly informed them of it: https://www.bing.com/videos/riverview/relatedvideo?q=astronaut+that+saw+a+structure+on+the+moon&&mid=D45E75DC4724A03A1BA1D45E75DC4724A03A1BA1&churl=https%3a%2f%2fwww.youtube.com%2fchannel%2fUCJ1SxEaxrC5RTLs8OPq0iuQ&FORM=VAMGZC
NASA has data from several satellites that indicates the possibility of artificial structures on the moon: https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/technology/nasa-reveals-data-suggesting-artificial-structures-on-moon/ar-AA1NdTXx
Luis Elizondo indicates photographs exist of monolithic structures on the moon that may be revealed soon: https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/other/ex-pentagon-ufo-honcho-claims-photos-show-monolith-like-structures-on-moon/ar-AA27I70Y?ocid=BingNewsSerp
These may come together to paint a picture that intelligent alien life exists capable of space travel which may in turn break wide open the UFO topic in a manner that even the most optimistic ufologist could ever anticipate.
This new release is good for the UFO industry. The Noobs who make up the clicking audience upon whom the money depends in the UFOSphere are the vast bulk of interested persons, and some of this will be interesting news to them. The Noob-herders will run their BOMBSHELL clickbait and “the conversation will be advanced.”
The “releasing authority” and their superiors are saying to themselves– “That ought to hold the little bastards for a while!”
We have entered Orwellian territory where any real knowledge of UFOs can mean that you are an “Oldthinker” whose actual knowlege only gets in the way of their narrative.
Well of course we’re not going to get any disclosure from the powers that be it’s just a fact unless somebody can tell me how it benefits the powers that be to give that information not only to the Americans but I for every government in the world to see and that seems to be missed a lot when people talk about the subject who are in the UFO field. I have no idea why or how but I don’t see it mentioned anywhere.
I take that back I’m sure Richard has I don’t remember in particular but I know he must have.
I don’t know maybe you’re right about newbies I never hear anybody talking about this stuff and I ask. To be honest anyone who even is aware of this stuff coming out like once a month tells me that what they saw looks like the usual dots in the sky etc that they’ve been seeing forever. I think it’s only the people better totally into the field that are paying attention if you want my opinion but that’s based on my own sampling.
I think something else that’s going on is we’re about to have a crash of economy that is going to make 1929 look like nothing. And there’s a new fronts now in the war as of today and it’s just ramped up 100%. By the way I think Donald Trump is probably the president that cared the least about the whole topic. But I know the community thinks differently.
Oh I just heard that Donald Trump is taking over the straight now and charging 20% to all boats going through. I wonder if UFOs will have to pay a fee?
Peace out.
I love seeing Richard with historian hat on!
What was it?
A critter.
You showed an object that chaged shape into a straight line. It looked like what was know since about the 1960s as “critters”- living beings.
Also, Richard Zen Buddhism is the wrong path- the Mahayana. 35 years ago I was a Mahayana Buddhist and the biggest issue in my life was what did the Buddha teach? Scholars say that Theravada is the closest thing to that. I’ve taught Buddhism since 1996 and I am trying to help you, as you do not have time to study the true history.
The Mahayana arose about 500 years after the Buddha and it is a serious betrayal of the Buddha. It created 1000s of pages of fake discourses on the Buddha so Zen rejected them and even threw out the Buddha’s real teachigs. They don’t have the Buddha’s proper instrucitons on how to meditate.
I want to share with you my two favourite western Theravada Buddhist monks.
Ajahn Sona, I have known personally for 25 years and I keep getting fresh insights from him. He’s in the interior of British Columbia. On Sundays at 9:00 am he usually has a live YouTube talk with questions you can type in for him, to answer live. He has a great collection of Buddhist talks on all subjects at: https://www.youtube.com/@AjahnSona

And Ajahn Nisabho in Seattle
https://www.youtube.com/@ClearMountainMonastery
https://www.clearmountainmonastery.org/
He and Ajahn Kovilo are gifted young American Buddhist monks who do live Zooms where you can talk with them on Saturdays. Also they do Sunday and Wednesday Zooms.
It is precious to have living teachers you can listen to.
I’m here for you, old friend!

I just finished watching a video on Eyes on Cinema of astronaut Gordon Cooper talking about a video recoding of UFO landing at Edwards air force base and taking off . That’s the type of videos they should be releasing. You can’t make heads or tails of what these objects are except for the one that I am pretty sure a bunch of balloons.But I am pretty sure that is the purpose. I think who ever is giving this information to Trump for his approval knows exactly what they are doing, because they know he is ignorant on the matter. Trump probably has no clue as to what is really going on. I just think Trump is absolutely clueless on the matter. In a positive note I will state that the pdf documents does show that there is some other type of intelligence or intelligences operating here, although I believed as much before the tranche drops thanks to brilliant researchers such as yourself Richard ,and doing my on research. Hopefully these drops will inform the cluess and sway the skeptics.
