    My question is: What’s in giving these interviews and making these statements for him? He’s exited the role, he’s made himself clear about the stance he took when he was in the role. Why continue to talk?

    When I leave a job and go somewhere new I’m not obsessed with dragging my old workplace.

      He’s still in a potentially relevant role. It seems that he immediately moved on to a role at Oak Ridge National Laboratory as Chief Technology Officer for Defense and Intelligence Programs. They do handle government contract work, so no telling if they have any projects that would benefit from his statements. I’m not one to delve into alleged government UAP programs, though I’ve seen Oak Ridge mentioned a lot. They have a lot of unique programs that are bound to stir curiosity.
