Richard Dolan Lecture #2

UFOs and Disclosure in the Trump Era

Rate this book
For as long as people have talked about UFOs, they have wondered about when and how the governments of the world will acknowledge them. Among people following the subject, that’s called Disclosure.
In this second volume of the Richard Dolan Lecture Series, Historian Richard Dolan tackles an enormous subject. After explaining why UFOs are taken seriously in national security circles around the world, he provides his best analysis to date as to how the secrecy on UFOs has taken form, how it has corroded our society, and how it works internationally. He gives a fresh analysis on the black budget breakaway civilization, on the weaponization of secret technologies, the intelligences behind the UFO phenomenon, and how Russia and China fit into the global UFO cover-up.
He drives his analysis home with four distinct disclosure scenarios: Fascist Disclosure, Premature Disclosure, Insider Disclosure, and People-Driven Disclosure. Finally, Dolan offers a unique view on how the UFO cover-up and possible disclosure could transpire during the presidency of Donald Trump.
One thing is clear: we live in a world that hangs in the balance.

UFOs And The Disclosure in the Trump Era
by Richard Dolan
This mixes the UFO, whistle blowers, politics in all eras, and how that affected any information released to the public over the years. This was written when Trump was just coming into the White House for the first time. It was not what I was looking for but it was well documented.

Disappointing!

While I have much respect for Richard Dolan as one of our most clear-minded UFO researchers & authors, I am greatly disappointed in what I thought would be an honest discussion of the entire Trump presidency & how the same band of elitists who hold the UFO story hostage, conspired to destroy the only man who made a public commitment to disclose the black ops space program files & with it make possible UFO disclosure.

The Norm

Every book Richard gifts us with is great, never a dip. Consistently great! His norm. You know you are going to learn and reading this for the first time in 2025, what he wrote concerning President Trump in 2016 was totally accurate.

His description of the Deep State as well. He identified Dick Cheney as a prime gatekeeper years ahead of everyone else.

Reading Mr. Dolan never disappoints. That is unlikely to ever change.

Blimey , are we all blind?

It is a good read full of pro and con on UFO disclosed..
It covers all the Areas of concern, after all we are most human mistakes are made..Till we all become half machine
We will have to deal with it all warts and all when the truth does hit the fan so to speak. Love the take on the subject
On secret space program..

He begins his narrative grounded in factual information, providing a solid foundation for his claims. However, as he progresses, he frequently diverts from established facts into a realm of unsubstantiated theories and imaginative conjectures. These tangents often lead to rather far-fetched conclusions that seem disconnected from the initial topic.

Dolan can do no wrong!

Dolan information and sources seem to be legit and on point to me. I appreciate an honest and intelligent voice in a field where hacks and crack lots are many.

Full on conspiracy theory

Not in a good way. His other books didn't seem as tinfoil headware-ish. Disappointing. Wouldn't recommend unless you want to reaffirm what you already "know".

This book is seriously dated. It came out during the first two months of the first Trump administration. I read it for the first time when it first came out. I don't remember being particularly impressed with it then. I really am not impressed with it all these years later.

Solid

Not much new here, but well-written and well-reasoned thoughts. I really liked the political analysis--eye opening for sure. A very clear thinker!

UFOs during the Trump administration.

Another fascinating read from Richard Dolan. In addition to his previous books he deals with some insight on possible disclosure scenarios.

Dated but insightful

I disagree with a lot Dolan said then but I agree a lot more especially now and where we are poised with imminent disclosure.

I like Richard Dolan but I think that he understanding
of Trump does not go deep enough. A more thorough
understanding of Trump comes from Bob Woodward's
book Fear: Trump is in the White House, or from Robert
Costa and Bob Woodward's book, Peril.
