Kudos to Jesse Michels, that was an excellent interview he just published with Dylan Borland on American Alchemy. I have been suspicious about Michels in the past but this one changed my view somewhat.

For a start, Borland is one of the whistleblowers with the most integrity. And if he agreed to talk to Michels, and to seem very warm towards him in general and to put him in the same category as Knapp and Corbell (journalists he trusts completely), that raises Michels' integrity more broadly in my view. The link to Thiel isn't enough to say he's all bad.

Among the various topics they touched on in the new interview, I wanted to talk about one: the meaning of 'imminent', which they addressed in regard to Elizondo and the post-TTSA, post-2017 disclosure push, and why part of the legacy program has chosen to push disclosure now.

Michels was asking Borland if he knows of any upcoming event that might be behind the urgency Elizondo has hinted at in regard to UAP disclosure. Elizondo had refused to talk about this with Michels in their interview some time ago, aside from some gloomy opaque comments. Although Borland wouldn't be drawn on it, he knew what Michels was talking about, and it seemed evident that they were talking about the foreboding prediction at the end of the 'Important Memo'.

The 'Important Memo' was leaked at the end of the MJ-12 saga to Ryan Wood (as far as I remember). It is assumed to have been written by Newton "Scotty" Miler, a confidant and assistant to former CIA Director of Counterintelligence James Jesus Angleton. It purports to give a transparent overview of the entire NHI presence on earth and the developments post-Roswell.

The memo ends with a prediction that the NHI intend to escalate their presence on earth in the coming decade. That supposedly means stepping up in an aggressive way in relation to humanity.

Jesse and Dylan spoke a lot about the cosmology/theology behind what's going on, and the link to simulation theory, and that the NHI are part of the control system of our reality. They both seemed to view the 'drone' incursions as part of this stepping up by the NHI.

What are people's thoughts on all this? To be honest, the first time I read the 'Important Memo', I found it convincing until I reached the last few pages, when it seemed to descend into LARP. However, having watched this American Alchemy interview with someone who I believe is of the utmost integrity, I am reconsidering. Borland seems to think this is indeed quite possibly what's coming down the pipeline.

What are people's thoughts?
