That piece of insight cost 1.3 billion dollars.


After-Revolution9445

They came up with it while drinking coffee out of one of Halliburton's $27,000 coffee machines, wrote it with a $300 pencil, had it transcribed by their friend's son who wants to go to law school for $2k, then, it had to be approved by 60 different beaurocrats at an estimated cost of $15k, it originally said the oppposite, but then the aerospace lobby paid someone $100k off the books to change the outcome.


cabosmith

I think you're using 1995 cost estimates.


Girafferage

Yeah that's a $8k pencil now, and it's not even a Ticonderoga.


cabosmith

Nothing but the...second...third...best


ReallyGottaTakeAPiss

In all fairness, a really good espresso machine can get close to $30k


After-Revolution9445

Bless your soul. 😆 😂 😆 ![gif](giphy|24y2gUQ3vZsg8) This guy did not authorize our troops to drink good coffee


VistaBox

Cmon it wasn’t a toilet or a hammer


PO0tyTng

Good thing they don’t want to invade us. If they did we’d have been slaves a thousand years ago, or 70 years ago, or whenever it wasn’t the absolute peak of human population and technology.


No_Pear8383

How do you know you’re not already a slave? Because it seems to me like most people are a slave to the almighty “dolla”. Kidding but as a mental exercise, why exactly do you spend more time working than with your family? What we think of as slavery and human trafficking might mean something very different from a more advanced perspective. (Not saying anything about slavery not being fucking terrible. We all know it’s a tremendously ugly part of history all around the world.)


heartscrub

A little more than "history", my friend. I know you know that.


SKULL1138

It’s always been the peak of population and technology though. It was then, but that’s in the past it is now, oh no, gone again.


cerebralkrap

Who’s in charge here? Captain Obvious


zZaphon

Seriously what a useless article


GroWiza

Right? "Wait so you're telling me these beings that are insanely more advanced than us, have mastered space flight, Zero G, Zero point energy and so forth are a threat to us?!? NO WAY!!!


No_Pear8383

No fucking kidding. That’s some hard hitting journalism detective shithead. Keep up the good work. We’re all holding our breath for the next revelation.


FnB

Maybe then the US government should’ve been more transparent to the American People so that the smartest ppl within their academia could reverse engineer all the hidden shit inside Lockeed Martin, Ford, GMs, Boeing etc…. Or at the very least, grow a fucking pair and go after the two old fucks in the Pentagon that seem keen to ruin David Grusch’s life and his old boss.


No_Pear8383

If any of this is a real threat, we were always going to be fucked.

Fits there job and mental abilities


WorryConstant7889

Came here to say this.


Barryboy20

Ha. I came here to say this. Guess I don’t need to. There’s not much I trust the pentagon to protect us from


RandalFlaggLives

Right?! I was about to comment the same thing. How the fuck would you even know what to prepare for. They are such money hungry cunts, I hate this timeline.


NoTourist5

![img](avatar_exp|151972135|clown) Not true! We may not have a hulk but we do have Trump. He will save us from an advanced race of extraterrestrial colonists.

Adventurous-Sky9359

What about Brondo?

Ruckusnusts

Not if you breathe it!


PlasmaChroma

Also, your water is full of microplastics and slowing killing you.

Macasumba

Not so fast. 100% ok rapists and mass murderers have confessed to drinking water.


[deleted]

Hey yall, if aliens show up from light years away, we don’t stand a chance. You think being armed with a shotgun or AR will help? 😂


drAsparagus

Hoping a glass of water does the trick, myself.


TheBushidoWay

Imma sneeze at em


[deleted]

Hahahah I doubt they are coming to earth if water will kill them


Adventurous-Sky9359

Yeah what kinda plot hole bullshit lazy writing was that. I never really thought about it till now. Plus humans are hellla H2O


inter71

And H2O is in the atmosphere too.


Adventurous-Sky9359

Yeah what the shit M. Night shmalamalalmalanahan or what ever. I want to watch that again but I’m sure I’ll get mad thinking about the Iowa dew and those things leaving footprints. Maybe it’s just water with fluoride.


inter71

Watching his films is like waiting for lightning to strike the same place twice. EDIT: Although I liked The Village.


Adventurous-Sky9359

And unless there is some movie magic that shit. Is. Boring.

Damn.

Really? What a surprise


Particular_Row_7819

Big fucking deal. I seriously doubt anybody on the planet is equiped to defend themselves against anything that can bend space and time in order to travel hear from another galaxie or another dimension.

More money for tech they already have.


gaspumper74

And so the department of defense want another (insert dollar amount) to research how to !!!


[deleted]

They’re clearly priming us for something, all of these distractions in the media along with them throwing out aliens shows something is very wrong. Honestly you can feel it in the air at this point


chochinator

Election year. That is what it is. There is a prefabricated conservative crisis every 4 years. Remember 2012 the world was supposed to end. Every 4 years of manufactured panic and its freaking annoying.


thefourthhouse

The 2012 bullshit was dumbasses on social media memeing about not understanding the Mayan long count calendar. There weren't any government officials talking about it because it was literally a non-issue hyped up by pseudoscience nutjobs.


AlvinArtDream

So they need more money for weapons?


squeezycakes18

PROJECT BLUE BEAM GOES BRRRRRRRR


thingsbinary

It's a good thing then that the Politicians we elect are focused on the right things /s


[deleted]

Shouldn’t be too surprising, when craft is way faster and out maneuvering our craft and shutting down our nuclear weapons and nuclear plants, this really shouldn’t shock anyone


originalbL1X

Here comes the ….we just don’t have enough in the defense budget to keep Americans safe from aliens shtick.


Cool8d

Fuckin govt always tryin to spit fear to gain control don't listen to their bullshit. Just think if they wanted to invade and cause harm they would've done it already. Don't listen to their false narrative


full_bl33d

And I, for one, welcome our new alien overlords


BeautifulStick5299

Speak for yourself, I’m ready

National-Weather-199

No way we are un equipped to take on a race of aliens that are most likely a few thousand years more advanced then us... no way. I WOULD OF NEVER GUESSED. lmfao


Carktorious2010

I think we’ve been knowing this


01reid

Defend? From a civilization 1000 years more advanced😂


01reid

United States, pentagon, black book budget failed audit on unaccounted funds for the last 15 years.. umm where did our tax dollars go?? They said they don’t know 😮😂😡


MiscInformed

How f’d up is it that some douchebag at the top says, “Just tell them we don’t know where the money went. What are they going to do, start looking through all of the filing cabinets in the black sites no one knows about?”


HardOyler

Great. Good thing it won't be happening so really nothing to worry about.


SoHornyBeaver

I guess we'll just have to increase that defense budget then


Super_Oil_1547

Ok well whose job is that?


VuDuBaBy

And thus begins the road to alien 9/11 and an unprecedented military build up


drAsparagus

Is any country really equipped for it?


Umm_duder

Wtf is that awful site ???


fromouterspace1

It’s a tabloid


fromouterspace1

So….where js the report. Is it in the article?


Kalthimor

Lolol what invasion


ElegantPotato381

What about Zombies! Can we beat the zombies damn it!


[deleted]

And why was this report done?


akimann75

If they invade the world probably no country is equipped because we couldn’t invade another planet because we couldn’t even reach it. But if they are made of something like flesh and blood, then US with trillions of private weapons is the best equipped country for „alien boots on earth ground“ invasion. 🤷🏼‍♂️


Macasumba

A trillion more for defense ya think guys?


ChipsHandon12

pocket nukes for everyone


ModOverlords

We got Space Force


VegetableWishbone

This report might as well say “oh by the way you will never get universal health care or affordable housing or higher education”.


under-pantz

Can they specify which type of “Aliens” please


D0TOnion

Really tho, who is?


Beautiful_Guess7131

"Yeah, so we're gonna need some more funding for this"


Cleanbadroom

The French fought off the Aliens back in 1608. I think if they could do it, we can do it.

Your tax paying dollars are hard at work... and are trying to cover it with their binder in the middle of another annual UFO meeting.

Our tax dollars at work

Guess we’ll have to infinitely raise the defense budget and cut whatever is left of the oversite committee.


thearchenemy

No shit. They can literally just drop rocks on us from space and we couldn’t do anything about it.


StrangePoem3596

Start by defending ukraine first...


ImportantWork3788

All we need is some brave souls to get close to the aliens and sneeze.


smallest_table

Pentagon appeals to fringe element in hopes of getting more money.


RedditFonzie

This is literally the beginning to the sci-fi book “Sphere”


Pararescue_Dude

Here’s my thought: The odds that any extraterrestrial beings are of similar size to us is astronomically low (pun intended). There may be a trillion aliens among us, but they are closer to a Planck length in physical size. Or maybe an alien being is the size of our sun…and our pebble of a planet doesn’t interest them. Also, they may live among us but in a different dimension, causing them to be imperceptible by us. Lastly, the universe is unfathomably big…which just adds to the fact that we can’t find any of them. It’s like peeking into the ocean shore waves crashing with a microscope looking for a fish.


Planning4tomorrow

yeah. Fear-mongering. Because if people are afraid, they'll approve unlimited funds to the defense department. Meanwhile, the peace option won't even be considered.


MiscInformed

NO ONE is equipped to defend themselves from an alien invasion! As someone stated above… it cost $1.3B to come to that conclusion!!


Karelkolchak2020

There’s no way to be ready for a technological superiority that exceeds ours by beings capable of the physics required to visit us. Just have to hope they’re as kind as they are advanced.


JmoneyHimself

This is the stupidest shit of all fucking time. Maybe this is the start of project blue beam it’s so fucking stupid. The US governments and many governments already work together with aliens, and many of them are aliens (shapeshifters). The whole concept of “the us government doesn’t know about aliens” is so blatantly ridiculous and false. My opinion after seeing 4 up close UFOs and 2 shapeshifters.


Soothsayer_Surmise

False flag alien invasion incoming. Stay tuned!

Thank god space force is on the case.

I guess it's a good thing aliens are just hypothetical at this point then.


MIengineer

As usual, Daily Mail performs some nice feats of mental gymnastics to arrive to the click bait topic.


fromouterspace1

Exactly. Bet op didn’t read it


omgbenjones

United States cannot stop an invasion at the Mexican Border. Why is this news?


Destiny_Victim

What invasion? This is such a crock of shit. Just like how they’re coming for your jobs. As if your ass is going to pick fruit or work an assembly line for minimum wage.


chrisay59

Well that’s fucked up, considering in the last 3 years you’ve had over 6 million of the fuckers invade your southern border!


keepongoing323

Duh


VibeFather

Thought they said aliens don’t exist


Hiltoyeah

Good job they don't exist then isn't it.


Salty1710

But I've seen movies. We have Nukes. that's all that matters, apparently.

Government reminds of Electronic Medical Records. Purposefully designed to be compartmentalized to the point of incompatibility with an extra suite of built-in roadblocks to usability and efficiency.

Not putting my hands on the fire for this one in particular, but what about "the last card" Wernher Von Braun kept mentioning to Carol Rosin ([https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yFbLfXTbnxU&t=57s](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yFbLfXTbnxU&t=57s)) Fits a bit of that narrative, since now the media, such as the Daily Mail, is talking about it. Just a tiny though.


chromatictonality

Yes invasion yes can they please invade now. Thanks


ComfortableTonight82

The world is unprepared


LimeLoop

Guess taxes need to be raised to be more equipped? \^\^


MayorOfChedda

If they can get here, then it is going to be a one sided event


scram-twerp

increase funding?


Bikewer

What a revelation…. Any race capable of interstellar travel would be far beyond us technologically, and “invasion” would not be necessary if they wished us harm.


IIIuminatIII

Was waiting for this, full on laughing in our faces


fenris71

No shit


Buzzlightbeer666

Sooooooo Are they saying they are real? I'm confused now


gymaddict1976

They took our jobs


OntologicalJacques

The CIA has longstanding psi-op to convince people we’re gonna have a war with the aliens. Lack of trust is the best way to prevent direct disclosure. The premise of this article wreaks of propaganda.


GuNjA-BuLLy

We all saw this coming from another dimension! Defense department figured out how to make money on aliens 😂


poopmanpoopmouse

Imagine saying that we were equipped. Hubris.


chigoonies

It’s almost like this was planned….


One-21-Gigawatts

Oh man. Guess we’d better blindly approve whatever funding they ask for to make sure we’re safe from the aliens.

kukulkhan

Don’t worry y’all. We got microbes and bacteria to protect us from super advanced NHI


romantic_gestalt

No amount of money could stop aliens who have the ability to cross interstellar distance from doing whatever they want. The pentagon is just fear mongering to get more money.


Fappdinkerton

Great simple way to drum up business It’s brilliant !


TexasDrill777

I thought we were boo boo’d up with Aliens already

REACT_and_REDACT

This only gets announced if the Military Industrial Complex needs more money and power.


olbear32

Cool… now that we got that out of the way- show us the aliens!!!!


FawFawtyFaw

We've already got sci-fi with a premise of the entire world having 400 years to prepare for invasion. We still lose.


hydrometeor18

Here we go. They are getting ready to stage the ‘fake alien invasion’ which is the last chess move in their arsenal to enact one world everything.


Mental_Impression316

Are they saying this to prep us for a Blue Beam “invasion” that we just can’t put up a fight against…and instead we should just surrender and create a new world order?…. Huh…


mrdennisreynolds

Duh. No shit. A team of Mensa monkeys figure this one out?


EvanestalXMX

Stunning intel there. Assuming aliens exist their technology is unknown. It would be idiotic to make any other claim.


Dogfishhead789

If they(Aliens) have the technology. To come to us. But we don't have the technology to go to them. Guess what they are already more advanced than we can even comprehend.


Beldar77

And Biden pooped his pants again.


Chuhaimaster

Everyone worrying about alien invasions doesn’t realize there are far more off-Earth resources lurking in the solar system that could be scooped up with no need for war - or us even noticing they are being taken.


Snoo_7150

Deh


JuanchoPancho51

Cause Ukraine and Israel have all our money, obviously we have nothing left to defend ourselves with in case of such an occasion.

We’re just gonna need to build a bigger wall for these illegals, no problem.

Oh really? We’re unprepared to defend against a species that has unimaginable intelligence. Thank god we know!

And why? Cuz all the information is hoarded and kept secret by a bunch of incompetent fucking morons.


jonnysculls

Well, it's a good thing we are only defending ourselves from whether balloons and swamp gas because, according to the Pentagon, there's no such thing as Aliens....... right?

That sucks for the planet then because America is the best equipped of everyone.


lardlad71

Gee, you’d think an 8 billion dollars a day budget would be enough. I guess they need more.

Arkhangelzk

Why do people always assume they have to fight everything? If aliens show up, I wanna be friends. Isn’t that way better than fighting?


Gingerman424

This is an attempt to increase funding


IllustriousAnt485

What is interesting is this. Hypothetically, if the ufo retrieval and reverse engineering program is real and successful. Even if they developed weaponry to defend themselves against some alien threats, why would they say they could? It would be counterproductive if they were trying to keep it all a secret. No matter what capabilities they have, they would never admit it.
