The Republican party has led the initial charge, with a series of claims about extraterrestrial life that, until recently, would have been seen as career-ending.

LOL, more distraction from one party's inability to do their freaking job. It's funny that 1) alien visitors cross unfathomable distances using what must be technology far, far, in advance of anything we have, yet "crash" and 2) These "crashes" only happen in the US, or the US quickly swoops in to take all evidence of this from foreign countries.

tl;dr Americans are so self-centered and narcissistic it's painful at times.

My interpretation is that it's mostly half-truths.

Do I think governments and militaries around the world have plans for such scenarios? Like retrieving UFOs? Yes, this seems reasonable. Do I think they have run exercises and tested those scenarios for real? Probably, yes. Most likely successfully so. Do I believe that someone with a lot of hearsay could interpret those things as "holy shit, they actually found something"? Yes, yes I do.

Is any of this proof? Nope. Extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence.

show me proof. the talking is fine but I need evidence.

Non-human, so it could be a dog or a monkey?

Not only clickbait, but also:

There's nothing new to discuss.

This is weird. Like, so weird.

The aliens look just like us but are attracted to positions of power and clearly have no idea how their job works.

I have a few interpretations if this based on my limited understanding if it.

I think the oversite committee has to hear him out. Ignoring a complaint from multiple members of military about potential misappropriation of funding would be egregious on their part. So they are listening to everything and trying to be professional about it.

Now the cynic in me believes this is actually a genius way to push pulp. If this guy writes a book (assuming he hasn't already) he's just given himself enormous credibility and advertising at little to no cost. Loud enough to be heard but vague enough that he can't be disproven or take on any accountability.

But the conspiracy theorist in me just sees this as an attempt to discredit and humiliate this and other sub committee's. Ammo that can be used to try and shut it down or prevent them from more serious work.

Though I'm a Candain and only getting bits and pieces of this story so I'm probably way off base here.
