To be clear. None of the news stories have been focused on ET disclosure.
In all the recent news coverage it has been "There is something out there, and it is not us. They appear to be much more technologically advanced than we are."
For now, the message seems to be; we need to prepare for a confrontation in case "they" prove hostile.
Seems more of a money/power grab, than an outright move toward disclosure.
Plenty of armchair researchers speculating, but it will be interesting to see what public official is first to advance ET as the likely source of UAPs in MSM.
