ANECDOTE

Canadian UFO Files Were Mostly Wild Reports

  • BJ Dichter recounted that Canadian military files on UFOs were just "boxes and boxes" of reports from inebriated or unreliable witnesses.
  • He described being asked by a senior general to review thirty years of UFO reports and finding mostly drunk or hallucinating claimants, not alien technology.
INSIGHT

Foreign Money Shapes Domestic Policy Outcomes

  • BJ Dichter argued that foreign money and international lobby firms heavily influence U.S. politics through NGOs and think tanks.
  • He traced this laundering of influence into policy capture and said it explains why broadly popular measures (like voter ID) can still fail despite 90% public support.
ADVICE

Call Daily To Push Voter ID Legislation

  • Marcela Marjean urged listeners to call and leave voicemails for state senators, governors, and representatives to push the Save America Act.
  • She recommended daily calls or nightly voicemails so assistants pass constituent messages up the chain.
