“Unidentified Anomalous Phenomena Disclosure Act of 2023”: Non-Human Intelligence

July 16th, 2023

I made an absurdly large amount of green tea and started going through Schumer’s, “Unidentified Anomalous Phenomena Disclosure Act of 2023.” (Chucky, it’s UFO, not UAP. It’s never going to be UAP. Got it? Good.)

I’m having a great time reading this. It’s hard to believe this legislation exists at all. After over four decades of looking at this topic, I never thought I’d see anything like this coming out of the government. Even if it’s all just another scam, this is worth going over for entertainment value alone.

Check out some of these terms. My word processor indicates that the phrase, “Non-human intelligence” occurs 14 times, “Technologies of unknown origin,” occurs 15 times and, “Legacy program,” occurs five times.

Sadly, from long experience, I know that John Greenwald is probably right:

But I love it anyway!

Via: U.S. Congress:

All Federal Government records related to unidentified anomalous phenomena should be preserved and centralized for historical and Federal Government purposes.

All Federal Government records concerning unidentified anomalous phenomena should carry a presumption of immediate disclosure and all records should be eventually disclosed to enable the public to become fully informed about the history of the Federal Government’s knowledge and involvement surrounding unidentified anomalous phenomena.

Legislation is necessary because credible evidence and testimony indicates that Federal Government unidentified anomalous phenomena records exist that have not been declassified or subject to mandatory declassification review as set forth in Executive Order 13526 (50 U.S.C. 3161 note; relating to classified national security information) due in part to exemptions under the Atomic Energy Act of 1954 (42 U.S.C. 2011 et seq.), as well as an over-broad interpretation of “transclassified foreign nuclear information”, which is also exempt from mandatory declassification, thereby preventing public disclosure under existing provisions of law.

Close observer.–The term “close observer” means anyone who has come into close proximity to unidentified anomalous phenomena or non-human intelligence.

Controlling authority.–The term “controlling authority” means any Federal, State, or local government department, office, agency, committee, commission, commercial company, academic institution, or private sector entity in physical possession of technologies of unknown origin or biological evidence of non-human intelligence.

Legacy program.–The term “legacy program” means all Federal, State, and local government, commercial industry, academic, and private sector endeavors to collect, exploit, or reverse engineer technologies of unknown origin or examine biological evidence of living or deceased non-human intelligence that pre-dates the date of the enactment of this Act.

Non-human intelligence.–The term “non-human intelligence” means any sentient intelligent non-human lifeform regardless of nature or ultimate origin that may be presumed responsible for unidentified anomalous phenomena or of which the Federal Government has become aware.

Technologies of unknown origin.–The term “technologies of unknown origin” means any materials or meta-materials, ejecta, crash debris, mechanisms, machinery, equipment, assemblies or sub-assemblies, engineering models or processes, damaged or intact aerospace vehicles, and damaged or intact ocean-surface and undersea craft associated with unidentified anomalous phenomena or incorporating science and technology that lacks prosaic attribution or known means of human manufacture.

Inclusions.–The term “unidentified anomalous phenomena” includes what were previously described as– (i) flying discs; (ii) flying saucers; (iii) unidentified aerial phenomena; (iv) unidentified flying objects (UFOs); and (v) unidentified submerged objects (USOs).

Disclosure of unidentified anomalous phenomena records or particular information in unidentified anomalous phenomena records to the public may be postponed subject to the limitations of this title if there is clear and convincing evidence that–

(1) the threat to the military defense, intelligence operations, or conduct of foreign relations of the United States posed by the public disclosure of the unidentified anomalous phenomena record is of such gravity that it outweighs the public interest in disclosure, and such public disclosure would reveal–

(A) an intelligence agent whose identity currently requires protection; (B) an intelligence source or method which is currently utilized, or reasonably expected to be utilized, by the Federal Government and which has not been officially disclosed, the disclosure of which would interfere with the conduct of intelligence activities; or (C) any other matter currently relating to the military defense, intelligence operations, or conduct of foreign relations of the United States, the disclosure of which would demonstrably and substantially impair the national security of the United States;

Exercise of Eminent Domain.–The Federal Government shall exercise eminent domain over any and all recovered technologies of unknown origin and biological evidence of non-human intelligence that may be controlled by private persons or entities in the interests of the public good.

    The last paragraph is the best! Though the word ‘eventually’ gave me a laugh, too. The choice of ‘anomalous phenomena’ isn’t funny, just dumb. ‘Something unusual’ means the same and is easier to say over and over without getting tongue-tied.
