Tucker Carlson:
“ The Pentagon has been conducting classified hearings on UFOs for more than a decade. We know very little about what they found, but apparently just recovered are off-world vehicles not made on this earth. That's a direct quote."

No Longer in Shadows, Pentagon’s U.F.O. Unit Will Make Some Findings Public
For over a decade, the program, now tucked inside the Office of Naval Intelligence, has discussed mysterious events in classified briefings.
"Eric W. Davis, an astrophysicist...said that, in some cases, examination of the materials had so far failed to determine their source and led him to conclude, 'We couldn’t make it ourselves.'"
"Mr. Davis, who now works for Aerospace Corporation, a defense contractor, said he gave a classified briefing to a Defense Department agency as recently as March about retrievals from 'off-world vehicles not made on this earth.'"
"[Senator] Rubio said some of the unidentified aerial vehicles over U.S. bases possibly exhibited technologies not in the American arsenal. But he also noted: 'Maybe there is a completely, sort of, boring explanation for it. But we need to find out.'"

Pentagon's U.F.O. Unit to Disclose Some of Its Findings to the Public
Although the Pentagon has previously announced that they disbanded programs concerning unidentified flying objects (U.F.O.), reports show that it is not the case. UFO programs apparently reside within the Office of Naval Intelligence.

The Healing Power of Proper Breathing
How we inhale and exhale has profound effects on our health—and not just during a crisis like the pandemic
That’s the first step in healthy breathing: extending breaths to make them a little deeper, a little longer. Try it. For the next several minutes, inhale gently through your nose to a count of about five and then exhale, again through your nose, at the same rate or a little more slowly if you can. This works out to about six breaths a minute.
When we breathe like this we can better protect the lungs from irritation and infection while boosting circulation to the brain and body. Stress on the heart relaxes; the respiratory and nervous systems enter a state of coherence where everything functions at peak efficiency. Just a few minutes of inhaling and exhaling at this pace can drop blood pressure by 10, even 15 points.
Breathe through your nose. Nasal breathing not only helps with snoring and some mild cases of sleep apnea, it also can allow us to absorb around 18% more oxygen than breathing through our mouths. It reduces the risk of dental cavities and respiratory problems and likely boosts sexual performance. The list goes on.
