"Talking" with the ETs, they pointed out they could cause the geopolitical and international media system to collapse within days now, if they chose. It wouldn't be hard. Enough potential crises are currently happening, that a simultaneous serious turn in all of them could happen. They're just choosing not to do it yet. There's sort of little bit more time that could pass to let the pressure build more...but yeah it could crash now. The Middle East crisis certainly isn't resolved; it was never just about the release of 20 more hostages and this will flare up again soon. Russia and Europe have no off ramp. The American economy keeps jackhammering itself, getting ever closer to a socioeconomic meltdown...but not yet. Another pandemic could happen very quickly. The grid could go down in many maybe most regions. China could jump in against Taiwan in chaos.
An advanced ET race could make any and all of these things happen tomorrow. The crises have clearly been lined up close to each other as Courtney predicted.
I don't think it will all happen tomorrow though. But it could. Some of these things will pop on their own due to other humans, without any ET intervention. Then, the clock runs down on the rest in a strained world.
