Tom DeLonge stage banter at October 2 Angels and Airwaves show in Anaheim, CA:
Well, one of the stories I wanted to make movies about and sing about was a very controversial story. See, one year ago I was pretty sure I would never play music again on the stage, I was really sure of that.
Because I went around into uh…I made my way into the US government. [chuckle] I know it sounds wild. There’s probably a few people here like ‘What did he just say?’
Well, I walked around and I knocked on a few doors. And I said, ‘Hey — I have this idea. I think young people are ready for the conversation of a lifetime. I think they can take it.’ Cuz we have this idea that we’re all so separate from each other but we’re not. All the people your age in different countries across the world. I felt that if the government would have this one conversation it might pull us all together.
So I begged and I begged and I talked about all my ideas. And all these guys with all these stars on their shoulders would look at me and say ‘We don’t believe anything you’re saying but we wanna hear more.’
Well, guess what? — it worked. A couple weeks ago you might’ve seen a few articles with my name in it. If you thought that was a big deal — it’s not. There’s some big # coming.
I took a bunch of these people that I met from the CIA to the DOD to the OSD to some other places I can’t say. [chuckle] And they’ve all come together, and To The Stars…became To The Stars Academy of Arts and Science. And some #’s about to drop that’s gonna change your life, that’s gonna pull all of us together.
To celebrate all these things that I set myself out to do, for all of us — it worked — I’m gonna ask you to sing this song for me, goes like this…”
He begins “Aliens Exist”, though steps back and allows the audience to take over. He does interject “No they’re not” following the crowd singing the iconic line “We all know conspiracies are dumb”.

One thing I do agree with Lue on, is a point that many that support TTSA should also take heed of... more data is needed before anything can be concluded. Which ironically, will more than likely never be released. Whats interesting here is the FLIR1 video from wayback in 2007 - who downgraded that? - Or is that why there are differing versions of that original video floating around?

Work politics are the same in DC as they are anywhere else.
When someone leaves a job the new people tend to piss on what the previous incumbent did, particularly when that person put them in the spotlight. When Lue left he caused them a # storm.
The navy giving Greenwald the infamous/boring "UAP are UAP's" safe statement was a shot across the bow to the man/men who deliberately filled out forms sloppily and promoted Naval footage without due process. They were ok while it sat quietly in the dusty archives of a nutjob conspiracy site, it was no threat to them. He was one of theirs and he shone a very big light on them, (and probably still is one of them somewhere else) told the world they have been lying to us, that our DOD isn't as advanced as the Russians and Chinese are in researching and defending against this "false threat".
The betrayal of publicizing the Navys footage painted him a whistleblower, but that wasn't their motive, we are still trying to work that out here. That footage was SAFE in essence, someone else knew that and gave the blessing for it to go out the way it did. Somewhere there was someone else inside that okd the safe videos to go back out in public.But like all juggernauts not everyone in the DOD knew that. The rockstar and crew were naive to think the untameable juggernaut that is the DoD would embrace that. So now they have to peddle slag and promise more nothing, their only fallback is entertainment. It will do well for them though.
They'll get no more information from the DoD, that door is closed clearly.
Interestingly Hynek was all about the data too. they are doing his model lobbying congress and trying to outsource the data. Data was Melons initial involvement and Leselie Keen (UFO DATA).
Data is king, why? I have no idea, yet
Tindal is industrious , am sure we shall be seeing much more of her in the future.

DeLonge is the boss according to everyone on the TTSA staff. He is leading this operation. That's what most of the people on your list have said publicly. You can't just discount what he says and quarantine it because it sounds nutty.
And does AATIP even exist any more?

Whatever one believes this knocks TTSA out of the box. At least one faction of TTSA. Most of them have declared they don’t want to hear anything about aliens.
When have most of them declared that?

They aren't doing any FOI requests, which appears to be the most effective thing to do.

Coursecatalog...I know you don't believe what you stated.....
As everyone knows TDL shoots of the mouth, has no security clearance, and everyone in his company knows he has a big mouth and can't be entrusted with a secret. You know that after the Joe Rogan and multiple other interviews that TDL simply makes # up.
And you of all people know that AATIP still exist.....

Me of all people doesnt't even know if AATIP ever existed!
Yes, AATIP existed, and it “did pursue research and investigation into unidentified aerial phenomena,” Pentagon spokesperson Christopher Sherwood confirmed. However, he added: “Mr. Elizondo had no responsibilities with regard to the AATIP program while he worked in OUSDI [the Office of Under Secretary of Defense for Intelligence], up until the time he resigned effective 10/4/2017.”

If you’ve seen the cable shoe Mellon said something along the lines about, he didn’t want to get into the alien thing. Zondo also has expressed his scientific credentials that wanted to start all over and not get into things like that.
These are paraphrases, but the gist was that TTSA wanted scientific proofs, not bizarre theories.

Good point Zazzer - why do they not give a hoot about mandatory classification reviews (are they just lazy)?
Why Aren't DeLonge and the Rest of TTSA filing FOIAs/MDRs?
A lazy mitigation would be that he knows what 'they' know already. If so, why doesn't he bother to lift a single FOIA finger to establish those facts for everyone else?

Why would TTSA FOIA anything? Anything that has come through FOIA has contradicted their narrative.
TTSA; Zondo was head of AATIP
DoD; he had nothing to do with it
TTSA: DoD released the videos
DoD; the videos were not cleared for public release
Need I say anymore?
Ufology‘s short memory.
They wrongly claimed: -AATIP was aviation
-AATIP never studied UAP
-The videos weren’t of UAP
-Elizondo never worked for AATIP
-Congress was never briefed on UAP
-TTSA has nothing to do with the congressional UAP briefings
-TTSA hasn’t any UAP material
