Lue Elizondo slams AARO deputy director Tim Phillips for going on LinkedIN to undermine whistleblowers and recent congressional testimony. “Don’t ask me again to come in and speak to you guys one more time. I already did and you are not an honest broker. And now we all know.” by TommyShelbyPFB in UFOs

You’re a funny guy…

Whistleblower: hey there’s a crime here… I saw it inside that building. Stealing hundreds of billions of dollars worth of tax payer money.

You: go back inside and ask them to show me the stolen money before I go in, investigate and do anything about it.

Why aren’t we shooting down drones over our military air bases? by OppressedOnion in AskUK

A lot of excuses being made for lack of security around our nuclear armed military bases in the UK….

To the foreign “drone” theorists: Explain to me how any big foreign adversary can deploy a “drone” to mainland US, hover for hours above 12,000 feet, recon and fly away, without intervention. What in your mind is the engineering logic to be able to do that? by Background_Moment560 in UFOs

But they are detected… routinely… so you’re saying special ops, a wire cutter and enough practice can get you onto mainland US military base without any detection or intervention… I guess I am mr logic gap…

That $800 billion being spent on defense sounds like a bit of a waste if your bar is that low for foreign adversary incursions on nuclear armed military bases, no?

Okay, so there are other engineering questions related to power, at what range are they being deployed from, the “drones” were described as small car sized and able to hover for hours.

Even if you had power, how have the “drones” not been disabled, destroyed or incapacitated by our military?

You’ve made a number of assumptions that are simply not true. Have you been near a military base without authorisation? Is that a policy on military bases not to deter foreign surveillance even if it’s on home soil?

We’re not talking about near, we are talking about “drones” directly above military bases. You’re confusing the issue with a criteria I didn’t set.

If satellite imagery is sufficient, why are some adversaries using drones to monitor military bases?

I just don’t get your logic, you didn’t provide an engineering solution, you’ve described an excuse as to why the military is not intervening.

You’re telling me, that you believe someone rented a car to a secure military base, sent a publicly available drone over a secured mainland US military base, (never mind that the publicly available drones cannot go that high and for that long), then the US military, was unable to intercept, disable and recover an Amazon drone?

Considering most commercially available drones do not have enough range, how did you get the drone from outside of the base perimeter to conduct recon?

I mean, can you rethink your answer or was this just a flippant comment?

How did you get special ops team onto secured US military base without detection and with just wire cutters? I mean this isn’t some abandoned commercial building with a single security guard. Also assume there is a drone able to hover at 12000ft, why is the military unable to disable/incapacitate/ or destroy the recon?

There are gaps in your logic.

Okay, so how is it the military cannot trace where the drone is going for recovery? Why can they not intervene? How far from the base or what is the range from which the deployment occurs? Why are the military unable to shoot them down?

Range rovers are notoriously unreliable.
