    “We would have to have a conversation in a closed session, ma’am,” Elizondo said. “I signed documentation three years ago that restricts my ability to discuss specifically crash retrievals.”

    Rep. Jared Moskowitz, D-Fla., asked Elizondo about the document he signed with the Defense Department.

    “You specifically said the document said you can’t talk about crash retrieval,” Moskowitz said. “Well, you know, you can’t talk about fight club if there’s no fight club.”

    “>Correct,” Elizondo replied.

    Serious question for an unserious sub:

    Do you really believe it would be that easy to circumvent this super secret document?

    Like, the only way they’d let this go is if the paper was an “in case of emergency” thing.

    On the one in a billion chance you actually find a crashed alien spacecraft, you’re going to want to already have that paper signed, it’s not something you do after and people can just opt out of.
