161: The Great UFO Conspiracy, Part 1: Snippy the Mute
Manage episode 372032987 series 2848241
CW: Animal Death
On June 5, 2023, The Debrief published an article titled “Intelligence Officials Say U.S. Has Retrieved Craft of Non Human Origins.” Written by Leslie Kean and Ralph Blumenthal, the article details claims brought forth by whistleblower David Grusch, a former Air Force officer and intelligence official, concerning documents he had been shown.
And what was in these documents? Evidence of a crash recovery program responsible for retrieving alien spaceships that had embedded themselves into Earth’s soil. In subsequent interviews, Grusch claimed that the Pope informed the American Army of a UFO that had crashed in Italy in the mid 1940s, that we’ve recovered alien bodies, and… that aliens have killed humans!
Here’s the thing… This is all old hat, and it was Grusch’s claims that prompted the beginning of this series. All UFO conspiracies can be traced back to the 1980s. Before we get there, however, we need to take a trip back to 1967, to the mutilation heard round the world. The death of Lady, Nellie Lewis’ prize horse, garnered national press attention, forever linking the phenomenon of livestock mutilation to UFOs.
