Tracy Tormé has passed away... RIP
Tracy Tormé was born on April 12, 1959 in Los Angeles County, California, USA. Has passed away on January 4, 2024 in Escondido, California, USA. The writer and producer was known for Fire in the Sky (1993), I Am Legend (2007) and Sliders (1995). He was married to Jennifer Marie Tormé and Robin Tormé. He was the son of legendary singer, and actor "Mel Tormé" who at an elderly age was a often seen on the show Night Court playing himself as he was a hero to the main Judge on the show.
Tormé began his career in the 1970s, as a writer on SCTV.[1] From 1982 to 1983, he was a writer for Saturday Night Live. Later in the decade, he was a story editor and writer on the first two seasons of Star Trek: The Next Generation, but left over creative differences. In 1991 with Barry Oringer, Tormé wrote the screenplay for the miniseries Intruders which ran on CBS in May 1992. Intruders that was based on the book of the same name by Budd Hopkins. With Robert K. Weiss he co-created the television series Sliders, which ran 1995–2000 which I still am a BIG fan off.
Other series he wrote for included Odyssey 5 and Carnivàle. He was credited as a co-producer on the 2007 film I Am Legend, and wrote an early treatment for the project. Tormé wrote the screenplay for the 1993 film Fire in the Sky based on Travis Walton's book The Walton Experience. While it's a great movie in what it is the film has been a movie that left Travis upset with the outcome not being what actually happened as the studio made the Director change the story to make it more "SCARY" but the original treatment by Tracy was very good and more faithful. Overall Tracy was a hell of a good writer and very underrated. At least very under used as one in Hollywood for some reason or another I'm not sure about the workings as to why BUT this is all history now... He will be missed by not just myself here but by the Millions of people who loved his work.
End the UFO/UAP EMBARGO NOW!
While it's not clear how long the current people in people have known, and why they're still keeping this secret other than for the industrial mulitary complex which runs things to use these techonological advancements to themselves for future weapons against both our Earthly enemies, and those from other worlds. Some say that the reason this whole thing has been such a taboo subject and why the current people aren't being told the entire truth is due to the "fear" the truth would cause with both common folks and the power structures such as religions, governments and sciencetists. While this might have been true 100 years ago today's people are well aware for the most part that things are what it seems with the subject.
Now that we have been told by our own people that both "Area 51" is real, and "UFO's" or "UAP's" as they have been now labeled are real there has been for sometime a wait on more info coming out to us the people who have spent who knows how much of our tax money on secret projects, and an on going coverup which has lasted way too long. For me the "Truth is out there" but it's not about the "Aliens, UFO's" or anything like that but the "Truth" I'm talking about is the "WHY ARE THEY STILL COVERING IT UP?"
Time is not on the side of the older people in power as they will die like all humans one day do and so keeping the bit lie about this is beyond stupid at this point. Just to me there should be no more wait, and they need to just release all the data, files, pictures, videos, and all the bodies, and crafts to show the public. Time to end the embargo and time for the truth to come out... Now the book "Behold A Pale Horse" as you know is from William "Bill" Cooper whos been dead for decades now but he wrote that book in the 90s and it talks about a "false flag ufo invasion" so I hope that this isn't what we have instore for us in 2024 as I sit here writing this in 2023... The facts are what they are but what we don't need is a fake invasion or a pretend war. We need the facts and we need to know this in a peacefull way. I'm not going to ask for anyone to be sent to prison over them keeping this secret as this doesn't solve any issues.
Just let's drop the lies, and the act... Now we also know recently the congress and senate have been talking more and more about this subject and both sides seem to agree the time to reveal the truth is here but remember with these radical leftists democrats nothing is what it seems. Not even in the subjects like these. While Chuck Schummer says he's pro ending the embargo it seems Matt Gaetz is claming that is the current bill Schummer is trying to pass will not give us the answers we want but would place this in a place like the JFK files were we would have to wait 25 years and it would cost billions to just tell us what we already know.
This is a waste of time, and money... Time to just spill the beans, and let the people of Earth know the truth and get on with the show of engaging the world with these facts. Here is a tweet by Tucker Carlson with video talking about this very subject on his now big time X.com (Formerly known as "Twitter") show.
In July, Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-N.Y.), along with a bipartisan group of five other senators, announced sweeping legislation to declassify and release government information about unidentified flying objects.

Or perhaps there is something to hide. According to Schumer, a sweeping investigation “led some in Congress to believe that the executive branch was concealing important information regarding [UFOs] over broad periods of time.” This is corroborated by the inspector general of the intelligence community, who deemed a decorated whistleblower’s assertion that the government inappropriately concealed UFO-related information from Congress “credible and urgent.” Moreover, as Senate Intelligence Vice Chair Marco Rubio (R-Fla.) noted in extraordinary detail, several high-level officials with top security clearances have told congressional investigators of the existence of surreptitious government UFO retrieval and “reverse engineering” programs.
At the same time, 10 ex-government officials, military officers and scientists have alleged (or suggested) publicly that the U.S. government has recovered at least one UFO. In light of these remarkable developments, the overarching objectives of the Schumer-led Unidentified Anomalous Phenomena Disclosure Act (UAPDA) are government transparency and the restoration of constitutionally-mandated congressional oversight. At its core, the UAPDA establishes that all government UFO records “carry a presumption of immediate disclosure.” Any records deemed too sensitive for immediate release would be subject to review by an independent nine-member panel. Following a recommendation from the panel, the president would decide whether, and when, to release any such documents or records.

Following a recommendation from the panel, the president would decide whether, and when, to release any such documents or records.
Perhaps most importantly, the UAPDA’s “controlled disclosure campaign” would require a benchmark-driven plan for the eventual public release of all UFO-related records or information, no matter how sensitive.
Key Republicans appear to object to the UAPDA on two grounds: The possible leak of classified information, and the possibility that the review board would duplicate other government UFO efforts. Neither objection holds water. First, the proposed records review board would be composed of “distinguished persons of high national professional reputation.” Each, along with board staff, would be required to hold top security clearances. Second, the president would retain ultimate authority to release any record or information deemed too sensitive to release immediately. These safeguards make an inadvertent leak of classified information extremely unlikely.
More importantly, if key Republicans succeed in neutering or quashing the UAPDA in its entirety, they may inadvertently spur the leak of sensitive information that they ostensibly fear. As Rep. Mike Gallagher (R-Wis.), a member of the House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence, stated recently, new protections enacted by Congress resulted in “all sorts of [UFO whistleblowers] coming out of the woodwork.” These individuals, Gallagher said, are telling congressional investigators that “they’ve been part of this or that [UFO] program,” resulting in “a variety of pretty intense conversations.” Moreover, according to Sen. Rubio, “a lot of people… are starting to edge towards coming forward and we hear may be coming forward.” Without the UAPDA’s formal, controlled disclosure framework, frustrated whistle blowers may feel compelled to leak sensitive UFO-related information, potentially resulting in a “catastrophic” or “uncontrolled” disclosure. Separately, Republicans appear to object to the UAPDA on the grounds that the proposed review board would be duplicative of the government’s new UFO analysis office. For one, the office analyzes video and other data of UFO incidents reported by U.S. servicemembers. Such work is categorically different from the transparency-focused mission of the UAPDA-proposed review board.
More importantly, as former deputy assistant secretary of defense for intelligence Christopher Mellon aptly noted, asking the government’s UFO office to investigate allegations of illegality by the executive branch is akin to tasking intelligence agencies with investigating the Iran-Contra scandal. An independent body with presidential imprimatur is far better suited to the task of enforcing transparency, especially if an agency refuses to release relevant records. Moreover, any costs associated with the UAPDA’s nine-member review board would be minimal in the context of the entire defense budget. Ultimately, the dearth of sound objections to the bipartisan UAPDA raises several questions about the motivations of the Republicans now seeking to halt the legislation. Some of the most forceful opposition to the UAPDA appears to come from Turner, chairman of the House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence. Of note, Turner represents the congressional district that includes Wright-Patterson Air Force Base, which features prominently — and infamously — in UFO history.
As physicist and hedge fund director Eric Weinstein noted, if members of Congress were to make a hypothetical “last ditch effort to scuttle” the disclosure of secret government UFO programs, he would have guessed that a congressman from Turner’s district would be involved. Moreover, with Republicans generally distrustful of government and seemingly natural ideological allies of any efforts to expose undue government secrecy, GOP opposition to the UAPDA is particularly perplexing. But thanks largely to social media, citizen advocacy and engagement is surging.

Polished, nuanced guides to engaging Congress on the Unidentified Anomalous Phenomena Disclosure Act and calls to action have garnered millions of engagements. Rightfully so. With government secrecy potentially concealing the biggest story in human history, Americans of all political stripes should be vocal advocates for government accountability and transparency. Marik von Rennenkampff served as an analyst with the U.S. Department of State’s Bureau of International Security and Nonproliferation and was an Obama administration appointee at the U.S. Department of Defense.
Jordan On Cusp of Speakership as Biggest Critic Drops Opposition, Endorses Him
Finally Rep. Jim Jordan’s (R-OH) toughest critic has endorsed him for Speaker so a path now has emerged for Jordan to claim the gavel. Fingers crossed!
Rep. Mike Rogers (R-AL), chairman of the House Armed Services Committee and vocal foe of the eight Republicans who voted to oust then-Speaker Kevin McCarthy (R-CA), had reportedly been organizing members of the Armed Services and Appropriations Committees to vote against Jordan on the floor. Rogers reportedly had preferred working with Democrats to form a unity government over elevating Jordan to the Speakership, earning him significant criticism from conservatives and his Alabama constituency.
.@Jim_Jordan and I have had two cordial, thoughtful, and productive conversations over the past two days. We agreed on the need for Congress to pass a strong NDAA, appropriations to fund our government's vital functions, and other important legislation like the Farm Bill. (1/3)
— Mike Rogers (@RepMikeRogersAL) October 16, 2023
With Rogers on board, Jordan sees a much clearer path towards garnering the necessary 217 votes on the House floor. Jordan has pushed for a vote Tuesday. Other Republicans might still oppose Jordan, but Rogers’ endorsement sends a strong signal that holdouts should back Jordan. “Together, our Republican majority will be stronger to fight Joe Biden’s reckless agenda for America,” he wrote on Twitter/X.
