Congressional UFO Hearing Turns Surreal with Singing Alien Witness
UFO HEARING by Rivers, politicalcartoons.com
The political cartoon shows a classic gray alien seated at a witness desk in a congressional hearing on UFOs and aliens, belting out lyrics from 'Be Bop a Lula' as the caption notes the proceedings getting weirder by the minute. Subcommittee members in suits sit in rows, holding papers, facing the alien. Tags like UFO, UAP, whistleblower, congress, testimony, and surreal highlight the satirical take on recent hearings involving claims of nonhuman biologics, Roswell, Area 51, military intelligence, superior technology, and Tic Tacs.
