SEVEN STACKS ON THE RESOLUTE DESK ~ What Robert Bigelow Told the President About Non-Human Intelligence
Hybrid Genies | Episode Notes
The Bigelow Podcast with George Knapp, Episode One
Summarized by Janet Kira Lessin
Robert Bigelow opened his new podcast with a story nobody else in this field can tell. He spent months preparing reports on seven separate topics, asked for a meeting, and on February 6 walked into the Oval Office with the stacks in his arms. William Scharf, the staff secretary, helped him clear half the Resolute desk to make room. Bigelow had asked Susie Wiles whether to hold back and bring two or three papers instead of everything. She told him to bring it all, since the president would work through the pile at his own pace. The meeting ran about 75 minutes, which gave him roughly eleven minutes per subject. He says he could have used two days.
UAP, ET, and disclosure formed one of the seven topics.
THE SENTENCE HE WROTE
Bigelow went in with a single goal, and he wrote the words he wanted spoken. He asked the president to deliver them somewhere other than a podium, and he suggested the door of Air Force One, with a pause as he went through the hatch and a short statement to the press. The substance: a non-human intelligent presence has occupied Earth for a very long time, arriving in craft that perform beyond our capabilities and beyond human physics. Then silence. Nothing further.
He draws a hard line between disclosure and confirmation, and he treats confirmation as the first step. A president says they exist, and they are here, which clears eighty years of noise off the table in one motion. He calls that a large appetizer with the entrée still to come. No president has done it.
WHAT PRESIDENTS GET TOLD
His account of the information chain deserves attention from anyone who expects official rescue.
Harry Reid, a close friend for many years, confirmed something for him about Bill Clinton. A staffer wrote a book recording a Clinton remark about two things he wanted to know before leaving office: the truth about the UFO subject and the truth about the Kennedy assassination. Bigelow gave Reid the book and asked him to take it to Clinton and ask whether he said it. Clinton confirmed the quote and asked whether Reid would like the answers, which he never received. Webb Hubbell drew the assignment to dig and came back with nothing.
Bigelow states the structural problem plainly. A sitting president gets nothing on unacknowledged special access programs, and access to acknowledged ones runs on a narrow need-to-know. He points out that top secret with compartmented clearance falls far short of sufficient, which he knows because he held it. He suspects Bush senior knew a great deal through his CIA position, and he thinks Nixon and Eisenhower knew. Beyond that, the record runs hit and miss, and a president who declines to push learns nothing.
GATEKEEPERS
He spent much of the hour on people he calls heroes of a different kind, and he expects listeners to laugh at the phrase.
These are the men and women inside government facilities and private corporate sites who have held custody of the material for decades. They carry information he compares to diamonds in a coal mine. They go to their graves with knowledge their spouses never heard, their children never heard, and no friend ever heard. He believes the isolation becomes a burden over a lifetime.
He tells one story that shows its shape. He spoke with Sappho Henderson, whose husband, Pappy Henderson, piloted one of the cargo planes carrying material out of Roswell in 1947. The couple stood in a grocery checkout line and saw a tabloid headline announcing the truth about aliens. Henderson turned to his wife and said he supposed he could finally tell her what he had been doing all those years. The headline turned out to be a cover story rather than a revelation, and he asked her to keep quiet after all.
Bigelow wants preemptive pardons for these people, and he argues the government stands complicit in everything they did. He asks what cross anybody plans to nail them to, and he notes that any prosecution would run straight into the agencies that gave the orders.
CASES HE BROUGHT
He left historic material rather than personal material, since witnesses and documentation carry weight that private experience lacks.
He described his conversations with the Belgian air force chief, who chased triangular craft through a flap lasting about eighteen months and told Bigelow he was burning fuel for nothing. He included the 1997 Phoenix Lights, where Governor Fife Symington witnessed an enormous triangular craft and mocked the subject on stage with a man in an alien costume because fear took him. Symington confessed his own sighting ten years later. Bigelow notes that a credible governor could have forced confirmation in that moment.
He left out Skinwalker Ranch and the hitchhiker effect on purpose. He judged that a first conversation had no room for people bringing things home with them.
THE SPIRIT AT THE FOOT OF THE BED
Robert Kennedy Jr. opened a meeting on homeless treatment centers by asking about alleged gun battles with aliens at the ranch, in front of a dozen people. Bigelow denied the shootout story and then described what happened instead.
One security guard woke paralyzed and forced upright in bed, able to move his eyes, with a being in the room and something stopping just short of choking him unconscious. Another officer went through two similar episodes in his Las Vegas apartment after a hitchhiker followed him home. In the second episode, he saw the attacker: a blonde woman with short hair and blue eyes, dressed in clothing from a century or more ago, wearing a hostile expression, standing at the foot of the bed without touching him. She turned her head as though something addressed her, then released him.
Bigelow identifies her as a human spirit rather than an ET, and he describes a sister dimension coexisting with our own.
WHY THIS MATTERS TO EXPERIENCERS
Bigelow spent a fortune and half a lifetime to reach a room where he could ask for one sentence, and he came out unsure whether he made a dent. He tells us the president cannot get briefed, the custodians cannot speak, and nobody in the chain holds enough to answer a citizen’s question.
Meanwhile, the visitors have been sitting on the ends of beds for eighty years, talking to whoever wakes up.
