What about if it's all trenchcoat wearing Keanu Reeves lookalikes with their pre-teen sidekicks?

I had a reply from the guy I know.
His credentials: https://www.open.ac.uk/people/telc3
My Question:
Hi Tom, hope you're doing well mate. Quick question, David Grusch, credible or not?
His reply:
Honestly, I don't know. Not the first to make this claim, though perhaps the one with the most credibility to lose. All publicly available info suggests there aren't any extraterrestrial intelligences in any "reasonable" travelling distance from us (assuming no faster than light tech) and if there were I find it really hard to believe radio astronomers have sat on that. My gut tells me this is a misdirect- the USAF in the 50s felt that letting the UFO mania become a thing was a sensible PR strategy (both to distract from testing their aircraft and in case any of these UFOs were soviet they'd prefer people think they were aliens rather than soviets) so a similar thing could be happening, and honestly I find that more likely than we're being visited by aliens and the government has kept that a secret but I can't rule that out.

Missed second part:
Will also say this is a perfect way to get some attention- you can't be proven wrong, how does the government prove they don't have secret alien materials sitting in Area 51?

Why would they bother trying to prove they haven't. It's a bonkers idea.Missed second part:

Not sure, I don't think they can really anyway which is as I understand what he's saying.Why would they bother trying to prove they haven't. It's a bonkers idea.
I haven't read this book but planning to and comes highly recommended:

The one thing that I find really off about David Grusch is his demeanour.
I’m not a fan of armchair body language experts but he just comes across like a guy following a script. There’s a certain lack of candour in the way he talks. Now, to be fair, he might actually be following a script because there’s a certain amount the DoD have cleared him to say.
Anyway it’s confirmed the House of Reps are going to have a public hearing:

If you’re following what’s going on in the House of Reps at the moment it’s not like they have a lot else to do with their time.
