So, what did y’all think?
I thought it was quite good for a first hearing. Rational discourse was had even across the aisle, and ultimately the topic was treated with the respect it deserves. I think everyone should actually watch the entire thing. Too many people are jumping on headlines or sound bytes, but that's the way of the Disinformation Age I suppose.
Although judging from reactions I'm seeing online, the liberal hot-take is that UFOs are a strictly Republican thing now and that questioning whether the gov't is hiding knowledge of UFOs is akin to being an anti-vaxxer QAnon disciple. Dana Milbank's shitty take in WaPo today exemplifies this trend. So fucking annoying.
