This is wild. I was at a consciousness conference in Sedona, and one of the speakers was Daniel Sheehan, the public interest attorney known for UFO/UAP disclosure work and for representing figures like Lue Elizondo and worked with Dr. Steven Greer. He gave a strong overview of UFO history, AAWSAP formation and the 2017 NYT article, Project Blue Book, and current UAP developments. One thing he said was that the same kind of bottleneck happening with the Epstein files is also happening with UAP disclosure: the same committees overseeing both UAP and Epstein are being overloaded, which could delay progress and lead to major redactions that conceal decades of illegal activity tied to UAPs. But then he went way further than I expected. Sheehan said the government is trying to weaponize consciousness. According to him, some of these craft are sentient and require telepathic, consciousness-based interaction to operate. He claimed traditional pilots often struggled because they were too analytical, so psychics were used instead. He then said the government eventually turned to gifted children, because operating the craft depended on being able to truly believe you could be transported somewhere else. The darkest part was his claim that the government targeted parents of gifted children by offering their kids spots at prestigious schools, when in reality they were being taken to Northrop Grumman-run facilities. He said these children were trained there and drugged with amphetamines to enhance their telepathic abilities so they could operate the craft. If I hadn’t heard this come directly from Sheehan in front of a room of several hundred people, I would’ve dismissed it outright. He did not seem hesitant at all about naming Northrop Grumman. That said, he did not provide documentation or evidence for any of this, so take it for what it is. I already know the “trust me bro” crowd is going to have plenty to say. submitted by /u/Perfy_McPerfersons [link] [comments]
