      So am I, but I wonder how ready we are. I think this kind of thing should only be done when we understand what threat uaps actually present, else unchecked fear. So maybe it would have been better for us to do this later

        Well also there’s a distinct possibility that most of these “off the books” programs are just basically embezzling money from the US government.

        It blows my mind that the three most likely outcomes are both “conspiracy theory” level crazy. Either we have crash wreckage (bonkers), have people embezzling through secret programs (somehow even more bonkers), or huge swathes of the DoD/intelligence community are completely batshit (also bonkers).

        No matter how things go, I will be glued to those hearings.
