Don't stay clear of that.

That's someone's agenda, trying to sink your ship.

Right.

But I had a lot of folks helping.

The Senate Intelligence Committee and the Senate Armed Services Committee were extremely supportive.

And I really don't think I would have been able to pull off making the film I did if not for their help.

And Rubio, when I started my process, was the vice chairman of the Senate Intelligence Committee.

And he had already learned a lot about what has been hidden from Congress.

And thought that what I was doing was really the only way to bring it out.

Because none of these people on their own would go out on a limb by themselves and become subject to ridicule.

They didn't want to be the one guy out there saying all this extraordinary stuff, right?

Not only because there's this antiquated cultural stigma where they can be made fun of or their reputation can be damaged.

But there's also this security system around the deeply hidden Crash Revealed program that for years has just targeted anyone who speaks up.

And so...

What I basically put together was a way for them to safely do it and have strength in numbers and be arm in arm with several Doves and other people.

And once Rubio leaned into that, I just started getting tremendous support from the Armed Service Committee and the Intelligence Committee.

And then Senator Rounds became very helpful behind the scenes.

Intelligence officials who worked this topic like Jay Stratton and Lou Elizondo and Hal Pudoff were extremely helpful behind the scenes, opening doors, introducing me to people.

And yeah, I think that I think this is really the only way this is this.

We were going to we were going to get this level of information out by giving people that safety in numbers.
