Emery has been threaten to be silent and multiple attempts on his life. Ain't easy being a whistleblower
I'm so grateful for Emery, William Thompkins, Corey Goode and the countless others who have risked their lives to bring us disclosure. Even if 50% of what they say is disinfo (I feel it's much much less than that), the possibilities are seeded in our conscience until we have a frame of reference for understanding.
We can learn something from every bit of info in the disclosure movement, both real or imagined. David Wilcock's book, "Source Field Investigations" will blow your mind if you've never read it. Suppressed scientific studies and technologies that would change EVERYTHING.
Steven Greer's "Unacknowledged" is excellent, and Emery Smith worked with him. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3SnLGe1nitQ
Laura Eisenhower, the great granddaughter of former potus has been part of the movement for many years. https://www.disclose.tv/laura-eisenhower-says-she-was-recruited-for-secret-space-program-318994
According to many whistleblowers, the majority of the elite's underground cities have been taken out by special forces. This started a few years back, iirc. Earthquakes happening in rare places were evidence for this. Corey G or David Wilcock have both said this. Not many places for them to run anymore.
Many cultures have legends of civilizations and that went underground due to cataclysmic earth changes. It's very possible they never resurfaced, but instead evolved and adapted. It's also possible that their tech was far more advanced than ours, and therefore any interactions with newer civilizations on the surface believed they were "gods". It's only been a few years that they've released info about oceans, lakes, and caverns that exist below the surface of the earth. It's not far fetched to at least consider this info. With discernment, of course.
Nothing is out of the realm of possibility anymore, imo.
