The DoD top secret clearance requires a polygraph and an extensive background check. They really don’t let just anyone join.
Polygraphs are nonsense.
I can’t speak for everyone but when I was younger (and a lot less confident) I got a job at the DoD and couldn’t get it because I couldn’t get through the polygraph. Background check (talked to everyone I have ever engaged with) was fine but I was way too unconfident / insecure to pass the polygraph. They say the polygraph is a lie detector test. It isn’t. It’s a nervousness detector test. And you lie if you're nervous.
For ts clearance it also needs to be renewed every few years. Which means going through the motions again:
Some skids may make it through. But it would be surprising if there is a ufo cult running the DoD in the leadership. Which is why this should be investigated.
Good job they're reliable and not absolute pieces of junk that mean fuck all. Oh, wait.
