The Red Thread Files is an independent, open investigation into the UAP, USO, and consciousness question — a living case file that maps the people, incidents, programs, and claims, links the evidence where it exists, and lets you weigh it for yourself. The whole point is the thread between things: who connects to whom, what's documented, and what is still only a claim.
An interactive investigation, not an argument. It gathers public information — government records, congressional testimony, reporting, and first-person accounts — into connected views: a connections board, a case-file cabinet, and a globe of sightings, tied together by search and an evidence-reels player. It treats the aerial phenomena (UAP), the sea-based reports (USOs), and the consciousness-research thread as one interlinked story, with consciousness a co-equal pillar rather than a footnote.
Evidence-first, and deliberately in the middle. This is not a believer's shrine or a debunker's blog. It takes claims seriously enough to source them, and skeptically enough to label them. It won't tell you what to conclude — it shows you what's documented, what's testimony, and what's contested, and leaves the verdict to you. On civic and political matters — see The Line — it is strictly neutral: it points to the mechanism and the record (how to file a records request, who your representatives are) and takes no position on candidates, parties, or conclusions.
Every claim is tagged by how directly it is sourced, and where a primary source exists, you can open it. The full provenance system — Official, Testimony, Documented, Claim, and Unsourced — is spelled out in Sources & Methods. A few standing commitments sit behind it:
The Red Thread Files is independent. It is not affiliated with, funded by, or speaking for any government agency, political campaign, company, or disclosure organization, and it carries no advertising that would compromise its neutrality. If that ever changes — a reader-supported model, for instance — it will be disclosed here, plainly.
This is a work in progress, and it will get things wrong. When it does, the fix is the job: corrections are made promptly and what changed is noted. If you spot an error, a mislabeled tier, a dead link, or a stronger primary source, that's exactly the kind of thing this project is built to absorb — write to sddgfeedback@gmail.com with the case or claim and, where you can, a source. Good-faith corrections are welcome and taken seriously. Every change is recorded in the corrections & updates log.
An independent project — please judge the work, not the author. The value here isn't a byline; it's whether each claim is sourced, labeled honestly, and open to challenge. Everything is built so you can check it for yourself, and disagree where the record supports it.
