“UFO’s”

A former national intelligence director under Donald Trump did not deny claims made in a recent hearing on the government’s alleged knowledge of alien life when asked about them, responding that “the government has more information than it’s sharing.”

Speaking on Fox News on Sunday, John Ratcliffe, who served as the U.S. intelligence chief between 2020 and 2021, declined to go into detail about the veracity of the allegations, citing national security restrictions, but called for greater transparency on the issues raised.

In honor of the recent UAP hearings that were held on July 26, I did a quick scan of some major news outlets (like The New York Times, CNN, Fox News, and more) to see how they were reporting this story. I read the articles, analyzed how they presented things, and gave them a grade. Of course, my assessments are not gospel; I invite everyone to read these pieces and interpret what they say about the media reaction to this topic going forward.

Recent UFO hearings have exposed our lack of foresight

It is not often that congressional hearings launch a golden week of memes. Last Wednesday, a subcommittee began questioning former Air Force intelligence officer David Grusch, who has accused the US Department of Defence of concealing a long-standing programme that retrieves and reverse-engineers alien spacecraft that crash on Earth. Congressmen are struggling to take him seriously. The tone of the chair, Wisconsin’s Glenn Grothman, was facetious, telling the capacity crowd that they were watching “the most exciting subcommittee in Congress this week”. But Grusch’s claims have inspired an enormous amount of interest, as well as a lot of jokes.

UFO Expert EXPLAINS The 40 First-Hand Knowledge Of Non-Human Craft AND Potential Bodies: Interview

For the first time ever, a team of Nasa scientists is taking unidentified anomalous phenomena seriously. But how will they sift out the incidents worthy of investigation?

It was just a normal day’s flying for Alex Dietrich – until it wasn’t. Streaking through the sky over the tranquil expanse of the Pacific Ocean near San Diego, the US Navy lieutenant commander was taking her F/A-18F Super Hornet fighter jet on a training mission with a colleague in another plane. Then came a voice through the crackle of the radio.

It was an operations officer aboard the warship USS Princeton, asking them to investigate a suspicious object flitting around: on several occasions, it had been spotted 80,000ft (24.2km) high, before suddenly dropping close to the sea and apparently vanishing.

The head of the Pentagon’s UFO office has slammed Wednesday’s shocking congressional hearing in which three whistleblowers claimed they had firsthand encounters or knowledge about secret government programs involving technology that is ‘non-human.’

Sean Kirkpatrick issued a statement Friday denying some of the witnesses’ claims – drawing a fiery rebuke from lawmakers.

The dubiously immoral, slimy wordplay coming from Dr. Kirkpatrick over the most important issue in history is on another level.

After US Congress held its first ever hearing on unidentified flying objects, we explore the allegations that are simply out of this world

Unidentified flying objects (UFOs) were once the preserve of conspiracy theorists: tinfoil hat-wearers who have, in recent decades, found their natural home in the dark corners of the internet. Despite our natural curiosity, scepticism has been our default response on this issue.

The doubts have persisted despite such esteemed figures as Lord Hill-Norton, once a Chief of the General Staff, and Vice-Admiral Roscoe H Hillenkoetter, the first director of the CIA, supporting theories of their existence.

A rare bipartisan hearing in Congress shows that there is much to learn

The Morning in America anchor of NewsNation, Markie Martin, said to me on Tuesday: “Avi, you are a Harvard astrophysicist and most of us do not have that education. How do you advise that we interpret the hearing at the US House of Representatives on Unidentified Anomalous Phenomena (UAP)?” My reply was simple: “Just pay attention to the factual information presented by the witnesses. Think of yourself as a juror in a courtroom and decide whether to believe the witnesses.”

If the truth is out there, the US Congress wants to know.

The House of Representatives convened a landmark panel on unidentified anomalous phenomenon (UAPs), known more colloquially as UFOs, on Wednesday, in the most serious acknowledgement yet that mysterious sightings deserve scrutiny at the highest levels of government.

US lawmakers were “not bringing little green men or flying saucers into the hearing… we’re just going to get to the facts,” Republican Tim Burchett said at the beginning of the meeting. Yet the testimony at times strayed into the unknown.

Five Key Takeaways From the Congressional Hearing on UFOs

A former Air Force officer and intelligence official told Congress Wednesday he believes the government is hiding captured UFOs — and claimed he could not reveal whether anyone was murdered to keep the secret contained.

David Grusch, a former national reconnaissance officer representative for the Pentagon’s Unidentified Anomalous Phenomena Task Force, made the startling remarks during a bombshell House Oversight subcommittee hearing on UAP — Pentagon jargon for UFOs.

Former U.S. Navy commander David Fravor describes the ‘tic-tac’ incident: “All four of us saw a white ‘tic-tac’ object with a longitudinal axis pointing north-south, and moving very abruptly over the water, like a ping-pong ball.”

A former top US intelligence officer says defense officials told him UFOs have been recovered — and that bombshell details about the extraterrestrial craft are set to be revealed to Congress on Wednesday.

“I’ve been told that we have recovered technology that did not originate on this Earth, by officials in the Department of Defense and by former intelligence officials,” said Christopher Mellon, the former deputy assistant secretary of defense for intelligence, to NewsNation’s Chris Cuomo Monday night.

People MURDERED To 'Protect' UFO Secret Programs, David Grusch Prepared To Testify

An alien spaceship crash landing cannot be ruled out as the cause of the strange pointy protrusions found on Mars, scientists have said.

In April, Nasa’s Curiosity Rover photographed what appear to be rows of spikes, plates and wedges protruding from rocks on the floor of the 96-mile (154 km) Gale Crater.

UFOs are a ‘matter of national security’: Ryan Graves

Rep. Tim Burchett (R-Tenn.) said he is 100% sure that the federal government is covering up documents about UFOs — and he’s not alone among members of Congress in trying to push for more information about what could be out there.

“We’ve requested documents, we’ve gone to interview pilots and been stonewalled by our Pentagon. It’s ridiculous, it’s been going on since the ‘40s,” Burchett said Saturday afternoon on Fox News. “We are taking the gloves off.”

The Phenomenon – Good place to start for anyone interested.

The scientist and military intelligence officer leading the Pentagon’s task force for unidentified anomalous phenomena (UAPs) — which the public calls UFOs — says being caught off guard by “intelligent or extraterrestrial technical supremacy” remains a top concern as investigators analyze more than 800 cases of mysterious sightings reported by U.S. military personnel dating back decades.

“Data and science has to guide where you go, and we will follow the data,” Dr. Sean Kirkpatrick said last month, in an exclusive first interview after his appointment to the All-Domain Anomaly Resolution Office, or AARO.

h/t DG – Videos are eye opening.

Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-N.Y.), along with a bipartisan group of five other senators, introduced extraordinary legislation on July 13, suggesting that the U.S. government or private contractors may secretly possess recovered UFOs and “biological evidence of living or deceased non-human intelligence.”

According to the legislation, “non-human intelligence” is defined as “any sentient intelligent non-human lifeform, regardless of nature or ultimate origin which may be presumed responsible for” UFOs.
