UFO report reveals officials can't explain the mysterious sightingsThe report did not find any evidence to suggest the sightings were alien spacecraft but did not rule it out
By Thomas Barrabi | Fox News | June 25, 2021
UFO report does not confirm alien existence
U.S. intelligence officials have no explanation for nearly all cases involving UFOs encountered by military pilots since 2004, according to the findings of a highly anticipated report on the mysterious objects.
Of the 144 reported encounters with so-called unidentified aerial phenomena (UAPs) from 2004 to 2021, officials said they were able to identify just one with "high confidence," determining the object was a deflating balloon. The Pentagon task force said officials "currently lack sufficient information" to classify the other incidents with certainty.
Officials called on Congress to invest in standardized reporting and analysis of UAPs to aid efforts at reaching a conclusion on their origins. The report also found the objects could pose threats to flight safety and national security.
"UAP pose a hazard to safety of flight and could pose a broader danger if some instances represent sophisticated collection against U.S. military activities by a foreign government or demonstrate a breakthrough aerospace technology by a potential adversary," the report said.
Compiled by the office of the Director of National Intelligence, the report did not find any evidence to suggest the sightings were alien spacecraft or evidence of advanced technology possessed by a foreign power such as China or Russia. However, the report also did not rule out the possibility.
The report noted that observers saw "unusual UAP movement patterns or flight characteristics" in 18 of the incidents, including some cases where the objects moved "without discernible means of propulsion."
"For years, the men and women we trust to defend our country reported encounters with unidentified aircraft that had superior capabilities, and for years their concerns were often ignored and ridiculed," said Sen. Marco Rubio, R-Fla., vice chair of the Senate Intelligence Committee. "This report is an important first step in cataloging these incidents, but it is just a first step.
"The Defense Department and Intelligence Community have a lot of work to do before we can actually understand whether these aerial threats present a serious national security concern," he added.
Officials have identified five categories that are likely to explain the incidents once they are resolved: airborne clutter, natural atmospheric phenomena, classified U.S. technological development efforts, foreign adversary systems and a catch-all "other" category.
A portion of the report is expected to remain classified. Earlier this month, senior administration officials told the New York Times the classified material does not contain any information concluding the existence of alien spacecraft. They acknowledged that keeping part of the report hidden could prompt speculation otherwise.
Rep. Adam Schiff, D-Calif., chair of the House Intelligence Committee, said the report showed that encounters with UAPs are "not a rare occurrence."
"We should approach these questions without preconceptions to encourage a thorough, systematized analysis of the potential national security and flight safety risks posed by unidentified aerial phenomena, whether they are the result of a foreign adversary, atmospheric or other aerial phenomena, space debris, or something else entirely," Schiff said in a statement.

lifeinjonestown.substack.com/p/smells-like-victory-6-26-2021 "Smells like ... victory ..."by Billy Cox / lifeinjonestown.substack.com/people/27376895-billy-cox“I have fixed your doorbell from ringing, there is no charge” — Inspector Clouseau OK. So, late Friday afternoon – the go-to slot whenever officialdom wants to dump a load of skank in hopes of minimal exposure – the Office of the Director of National Intelligence releases the “analysis” of the UFO/UAP problem as ordered by Congress in December. Its “Preliminary Assessment: Unidentified Aerial Phenomena” is historic insofar as there have been no formal government analyses of the issue in more than half a century. And, given the insertion of “Preliminary” in the title, that should be enough to tide us taxpayers over until ODNI decides to drop the next installment of what’s destined to become a protracted serial doled out in constipated little marbles. And just get a load of the concessions. Over the course of a whopping nine unclassified pages, the UAP Task Force tells us it reviewed 144 cases logged by government sources/hardware from 2004-2021. It even includes a subhead titled “UAP Threaten Flight Safety and, Possibly National Security,” followed by a solution-oriented subhead: “Explaining UAP Will Require Analytic, Collection and Resource Investment.” Hmm — never thought of that. It also informs readers the UAPTF is looking for “novel ways” to gather more info with standardized methodologies, and cites the need to overcome “sociocultural stigmas and sensor limitations.” So it’s better than nothing, right? Well, that depends on how long you’ve been swallowing this crap. We get the same old song and dance about five “potential” explanations for UAPs, which could’ve been plagiarized from 1969 when the Air Force got UFOs off its back by terminating Project Blue Book: “airborne clutter, natural atmospheric phenomena, USG or U.S. industry developmental programs, foreign adversary systems, and a catchall ‘other’ bin.” Zero details, natch, about that “other” bin, the only one anybody gives a spit about. In fact, despite the not-ours testimony volunteered by everyone from seasoned fighter pilots to, just last month, the actual former DNI John Ratcliffe (who cited “objects that engage in actions … that we don’t have the technology for”), his successors still want us to believe, quote, “Some UAP observations could be attributable to developments and classified programs by U.S. entities.” Just … wow. Oh, and what’s up with the Air Force? Remember those guys? ODNI informs us “the majority of UAP data is from U.S. Navy reporting,” along with this genuine revelation: “Although USAF data collection has been limited historically the USAF began a six-month pilot program in November 2020 to collect in the most likely areas to encounter UAP and is evaluating how to normalize future collection, reporting, and analysis across the Air Force.” Jeez. Better late than never, I guess, but maybe we should let the Navy manage our air defenses from now on and turn everything else over to Space Force. Oh my achin’ back – in October 1969, a couple of months before the USAF washed its hands of UFOs, Brig. Gen. Carroll Bolender, Deputy Director of Development and Acquisitions under the USAF’s Deputy Chief of Staff, Research and Development, authored a memo that didn’t surface until it got expectorated by a FOIA in 1979. Hardcores can quote it by heart. In reassuring the brass that the USAF would keep an eye on the blind spots, Bolender wrote: “… reports of unidentified flying objects which could affect national security are made in accordance with JANAP 146 or Air Force Manual 55-11, and are not part of the Blue Book system (Atch 10). The Air Force experience therefore confirms the impression of the University of Colorado researchers that the defense function could be performed within the framework established for intelligence and surveillance operations without the continuance of a special unit such as Project Blue Book.” So ODNI goes all the way back to 2004 for cases to review in order to fulfill its legal obligation to Congress. It advocates “resource investment” in developing new detection modes, including “advanced algorithms to search historical data captured and stored by radars.” But hey, wouldn’t it be cheaper to just steal it from China? Apparently, the People’s Liberation Army has gotten a head start on that front. Also: In order to eliminate redundancies, wouldn’t it be smarter to first take an inventory of what our defense contractors have been sitting on? Maybe follow up on former Sen. Harry Reid’s hunch that Lockheed Martin is working with recovered UFO material? Maybe get former Defense Intelligence Agency Director Thomas Wilson and physicist Eric Davis in the same room, under oath, in order settle, once and for all, the controversy over whether or not the former really was rebuffed in his efforts to check out UFO research allegedly being pursued by a private corporation? Yep, it’s fine day indeed when Uncle Sam officially decides to hedge his bet on the Blue Book conclusions that UFOs a) aren’t scientifically interesting, b) don’t encompass technology better than ours, and c) don’t constitute a national security threat. But the ODNI report is all about starting from scratch, going forward, looking ahead, moving on. Ignoring the 20th century timeline altogether — the deceit, the igannance and the waste that got us into this mess — is a convenient way to duck accountability. Maybe, in another few years, after everybody from that era is good and dead, we can spend $$$ on a study to revisit it. lifeinjonestown.substack.com/p/smells-like-victory-

www.msn.com/en-us/news/world/so-the-ufos-are-real-now-what/ar-AALtZMG?ocid=msedgdhp&pc=U531National Review So the UFOs Are Real. Now What?by Jazz Shaw / 6-26-2021 Now that we’ve all had some time to absorb the release of the long-awaited UAP Task Force report from the Office of the Director of National Intelligence (ODNI), it’s probably a good idea to try to wrap our heads around what the report actually said. Perhaps even more to the point, we should make note of what it did not say, this being a subject that seems to elude some of the reporters who are relatively new to the entire UFO phenomenon. And yes, many of us are going to stubbornly continue to use “UFO” no matter how hard the U.S. government tries to get us to say “UAP” so everyone won’t sound quite so crazy. © Yuri Gripas/Reuters The Pentagon in Washington, D.C. The first thing to keep in mind is that the public version of the report was short. Painfully short when compared with some of the aspirational dreams of the faithful in ufology. The classified report given to appropriate congressional committees (Intelligence and Armed Services) is reportedly ten times longer and contains all manner of goodies, but we may never see those. Reliable testimony from former Defense Department officials suggests that even getting that slim report out of the Pentagon for the public was an exercise in pulling teeth. They really don’t like talking about this subject. None of this should be taken to mean that the report was a dud. There were important admissions made by the ODNI on Friday. One of the first was that the vast majority of “UAP” incidents they studied “probably do represent physical objects.” They draw this conclusion from the fact that most were picked up using multiple avenues of sensory data, in addition to testimony from pilots and technicians who watch the skies for a living. So it’s not just swamp gas, “ball lightning,” or birds. And if you’ve seen one, you may not be crazy. (Or if you are, it’s not because of this.) The next thing the ODNI conceded was that the vast majority of interesting cases they have been studying are truly “unidentified.” Out of 144 incident reports, they were able to conclusively attribute precisely one of them to a mundane event, specifically the downing of a deflating weather balloon. They don’t know what the rest of them are, and they’ve really been hunting for an explanation. Prior to the release of the report, the Pentagon had already stated that what people have been witnessing is not an example of secret United States government technology. (How much faith one places in their claims at this point is entirely up to the reader.) In the report, they went one step further, saying that they “currently lack data to indicate any UAP are part of a foreign collection program or indicative of a major technological advancement by a potential adversary. “ While some dedicated, skeptical journalists might latch onto the phrase “currently lack,” interpreting that to mean that the UFOs could still turn out to be Chinese or Russian, this reading seems dubious. As the report also notes, most of the reported sightings took place in controlled airspace, in the midst of our naval battle groups and even over military facilities in the middle of mainland North America. If there were the slightest indication that those things came from Russia or China and were showing up over our testing range in Nevada (it’s happened), there wouldn’t be a “concern over possible national security concerns.” We would already have the real-world, military equivalent of Will Smith up there in an F/A-18E Super Hornet shooting them down. Or at least trying to shoot them down. Unfortunately, in one of the most famous encounters yet revealed between our Top Gun pilots and these objects, those pilots claim that they left our Super Hornets in the dust. Commander David Fravor of the now infamous “tic-tac” incident has stated repeatedly that he never would have stood a chance against it if the object had become hostile. That brings us to another part of the report that should not be overlooked, and it involves the capabilities I just mentioned. The report states, “Some UAP appeared to remain stationary in winds aloft, move against the wind, maneuver abruptly, or move at considerable speed, without discernible means of propulsion.” It goes on to say they have “a small amount of data that appear to show UAP demonstrating acceleration or a degree of signature management.” (The word “acceleration” is an understatement. Pilot reports describe them as simply disappearing.) Let that sink in for a moment since it’s coming from Uncle Sam now. What is an object doing if it is hovering, impervious to the wind, or accelerating without any flight control surfaces, rotors, exhaust ports, wings, or any visible means of propulsion? You don’t have to say it aloud. I’ll do it for you. The possibility they are witnessing anti-gravity technology should at least be contemplated. Do you believe our military has anti-gravity technology and nobody else has figured it out? Or do you think our adversaries do? If so, pack yourself a bug-out kit and invest in a disused bomb silo. But I’m getting ahead of myself yet again. There is plenty of substance to the publicly released report, all of which is now on the record for everyone to see. Our government has been studying these things — on and off — for more than 70 years. The scrutiny has intensified over the past decade, despite the military’s traditional “no loose lips” policy up until 2017. New policies have been put in place to encourage the reporting of anomalous encounters rather than punishing those who mention them. Following the release of the report, the deputy secretary of Defense issued a memorandum instructing both military and government personnel to report any sightings and ordering the creation of better methods of receiving, recording, and analyzing such data. So where does that leave us now, and where do we go next? Unless you believe that the United States government has switched from a policy of denying the existence of UFOs to one of trying to gaslight us all into believing in them, the field of play is beginning to solidify. The UFOs — whatever they might be — are out there. They almost certainly are not the property of our government or those of any of our allies or adversaries. And if you largely eliminate all those sources, we’re running out of candidates quickly. I will simply say that I wasn’t disappointed in the report at all. Would I trade my eye teeth for a look at the classified report? You bet I would. But if that never happens in my lifetime, I’ll be satisfied with half a loaf before starving.

www.theufochronicles.com/2021/06/dont-dismiss-alien-hypothesis.htmlMonday, June 28, 2021 Don’t Dismiss the Alien HypothesisBy Chris Mellon / www.christophermellon.net/The UFO Chronicles 6-28-21 The United States has the most advanced aerospace capabilities of any country and spends more than twice as much on defense as Russia and China combined. The Administration and Congress concur that these objects are not classified U.S. aircraft. In the Nimitz incident and other cases, some of these vehicles have been observed doing things that we cannot replicate and do not understand. Official records from the U.S. and other countries indicate that this is a global phenomenon that has been occurring since at least WW2 and perhaps far longer. We have no reason to believe that many of these objects are from Russia or China, and in fact it seems improbable. Especially when we consider how long this phenomenon has been observed. Consequently, the “not invented here” hypothesis is the only theory currently consistent with the known facts. From any vantage point, we are more likely to encounter probes than signals from ET because probes are far safer, more efficient, and more effective for purposes of space exploration. The radical capabilities and mysterious appearance of some of the vehicles being observed are consistent with what we'd expect of probes or craft from a space-faring civilization. As Arthur Clarke famously observed, “Any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic." There is no scientific barrier to interstellar travel even if superluminal travel is impossible. My grandfather was born before the Wright brothers got off the ground. Now there are already a number of nations with robots on Mars and a consortium led by Yuri Millner is designing the first probe to visit another star system. It would take only a tiny fraction of the age of the Milky Way for a space-faring civilization, travelling at one-fifth the speed of light, to explore the entire galaxy. Our government should establish a cleared panel of UAP, intelligence and scientific experts to study this issue. Mainstream scientists currently lack any detailed understanding either of the phenomenon or its long history, nor do they understand the range of sensor capabilities available to the U.S. or have the knowledge needed to understand where to look within our vast national security apparatus for answers. This has been shockingly evident in recent months with astronomers expressing their igannance of the UAP topic by asking embarrassing questions such as “If UFOs are real how come commercial pilots never see them?” and “How come only Americans report UFOs?” To be effective, the panel therefore needs to include people familiar with the long but obscure international and U.S. Government history of the issue as well as the classified data and capabilities our government possesses that can be used to obtain more information. Large expenditures are not required; progress will largely be a function of leadership, intellectual integrity, data access and organization. Someone at a high level urgently needs to be assigned responsibility to find out where these objects are coming from, how they work and why they are here. Engineering and scientific efforts to replicate observed capabilities also require a high priority. We can no longer deny that someone has mastered technology beyond our understanding and is using it to monitor U.S. military forces and probably much else. In some cases, such as the famous encounters of the Nimitz Carrier Strike Group, non-human origin is presently the theory that best fits all the facts. Until a better explanation emerges it is time to squarely confront the data and accord this revolutionary discovery the attention it deserves. Regardless of the source, we need a serious national effort to understand and emulate the capabilities we are observing. Regardless of the origin of these craft, the stakes could not be higher. Igannance is not a national security strategy, and we have never before been a nation deterred by fear of the unknown. The benefits that might result could include massive technological breakthroughs and revolutionary advances and insights that might otherwise take eons to acquire. The only responsible course of action is to proceed expeditiously with open minds, perhaps jointly with other nations to make faster progress and mitigate growing international tensions and rivalries. How can we turn aside knowing what we now know? There is really no choice other than to press forward in pursuit of the truth with the hope and expectation that new frontiers of knowledge will be discovered for our nation and hopefully for the benefit of all mankind. www.theufochronicles.com/2021/06/dont-dismiss-alien-hypothesis.html

Video: British Parliament Discusses Pentagon UFO ReportJuly 1, 2021
ByTim Binnall
The much-discussed Pentagon Report on UFOs wound up becoming a topic of conversation in Britain's Parliament this week as multiple politicians questioned an official with the country's Ministry of Defense about the potential threat posed by the phenomenon. The enlightening exchange reportedly occurred during a House of Lords session on Wednesday when MP Lord Sarfraz detailed how the DoD assessment "does not rule out that these could be military aircraft with very fast capabilities or even extraterrestrial phenomena." He then asked defense minister Baroness Goldie if she could "reassure members of the public that the Ministry of Defense takes reports of unidentified objects in our airspace very seriously?"
In response, she acknowledged the findings of the report and indicated that the MoD "holds no reports on unidentified aerial phenomena, but constantly monitors UK airspace to identify and respond to any credible threat to its integrity, and is confident in the existing measures in place to protect it." Goldie went on to express what appeared to be a fairly skeptical take on the phenomenon, stressing that "the MoD deals with actual threats substantiated by evidence." The conversation continued when another MP, Viscount Ridley, argued that "the idea that in an era of mobile phone cameras, drones and frequent travel there could possibly be alien spaceships whizzing about undetected in our atmosphere on a regular basis is not, I think, very plausible."
Ridley finished up his remarks by musing that "it's much more likely that these blurred images have boring explanations." While Goldie did not offer an opinion on the quality of the materials that were examined by the Pentagon, she stressed again that "the UK air defense community detect and monitor all flying air systems 24 hours a day to provide an identified air picture as part of the UK's national security posture." The issue of UFOs being a possible threat was brought up once more by another MP, Lord Coaker, who asked Goldie if she agreed with the Pentagon's assessment of the phenomenon as a serious national security matter.
The defense minister noted the DoD's assessment, but indicated that Britain's Ministry of Defense "regard threats as having to exist in the first place. We regard them as having to be substantiated by evidence and that's because we need to know what we are addressing and how best we can address it." As for the possibility that Britain might launch its own investigation into UFOs akin to what the Pentagon just produced, Goldie said that "the MoD has no plans to conduct its own report into UAP, because in over 50 years no such reporting had indicated the existence of any military threat to the United Kingdom."

· DANNY'S PUBLIC STATEMENT ABOUT LUE ELIZONDO & CHRIS MELLON
On April 24th of this year, in my capacity as the 2001 General Counsel to the May 10th, 2001 Disclosure Project Event at The National Press Club in Washington, DC, I attended, in Scottsdale, Arizona, the 20th Anniversary Gathering of many of the Principals who organized that 2001 event. At that time, I granted an interview reflecting on the “progress” that I believed had been made, since 2001, in “bringing forward” the cause of getting our American Public - and our American Policy-Makers - to “take seriously” the fact that UFOs are real… and that the “most probable origin of many of these UFOs” is, indeed, some Extra-Terrestrial planet… very likely from elsewhere in our own Milky Way Galaxy. During that interview, I was asked if I believed that there existed some “extra-Constitutional” group of people who possessed a substantial amount of information about these UFOs and about the likelihood that the origin of many of these UFOs was Extra-Terrestrial.
I responded by providing a lengthy explanation of why I believed that there has been – and still presently IS, indeed, such an extra-“Constitutional” group restricting access to this knowledge. And I explained, further, that I suspected that it was likely that members of this same group were responsible for “secreting” other important information and activities from our American people - and from our democratically- elected Congressional and Executive Branch officials.
Unfortunately, THIS portion of my interview was extracted from what I understood to have been a “20th Anniversary Documentary about the 2001 Disclosure Event” and it was inserted into a documentary film dedicated to promulgating what I expressly stated, in that interview, was, in my judgment an incorrect theory on the part of Dr. Steven Greer (the Founder of The Disclosure Project) with which I most emphatically DIS-agreed. Moreover, that portion of my “20th Anniversary Interview” in which I criticized what I believed to be an un-Constitutional “Cabal” (as I referred to it) was “spliced into” the midst of a later-recorded interview of Dr. Greer in which Dr. Greer was aggressively attacking Mr. Lue Elizondo, the former Director of the entirely Constitutional, Congressionally- authorized, “Advanced Aerospace Threat Identification Project” - whom I happen to legally represent - and attacking Mr. Chris Mellon, the former entirely-Constitutionally-authorized Assistant Secretary of Defense for Intelligence for both President Clinton and President George “W.” Bush, Chris Mellon being a man whom I personally greatly respect for the courage he has displayed in joining with my client Lue Elizondo to “move forward” the strategic objective of revealing government information authoritatively verifying: (A) that a significant percentage of the reliably-reported sightings of UFOs over the past decades are, in fact, REAL, PHYSICAL vehicles; and (B ) that the “most likely origin of these real UFOs is Extra-Terrestrial.”
I am issuing this official public statement to make it unequivocally clear that I do NOT agree with Dr. Steven Greer’s theory that the recent confirmation, by our U.S. Defense Department, that a clear majority of the 2004 to 2017 reports of UFOs are “REAL physical vehicles” is part of some secret plan on the part of our National Security State Bureaucracy to stage some imminent “False Flag” “Fake Alien Invasion”.
Nor do I agree with Dr. Steven Greer’s public assertions that either Lue Elizondo or Chris Mellon are part of any such covert plan. I, instead, am firmly convinced that both Lue Elizondo and Chris Mellon are engaged in an entirely good-faith effort to expose the fact that some members of our United States Government are in possession of information that reveals not only that UFOs are REAL, but that the significant majority of the experts within our United States Government who are “briefed in” on any significant portion of the information that our government agencies possess regarding the UFO (or UAP) phenomenon hold a good-faith and well-founded belief that a substantial portion of the reliably-reported sightings of UFOs are, indeed, “off-world vehicles” of an “Extra-Terrestrial” origin. And I expressly stated my disagreement with Dr. Greer’s representations to the contrary in my April 24th Interview. But this statement was edited “out” of my interview.
And what I said about the “Cabal” that is secreting this information. Was inserted into Dr. Greer’s attack on Lue Elizondo and Chris Mellon – that made it look like I was attributing them some role in Dr. Greer’s projected “Planned Fake Alien Invasion.” I want it made clear that I am expressly publicly DIS-agreeing with Dr. Greer’s characterization of Luís Elizondo and Christopher Mellon. And I am publicly stating that my statements of April 24th, 2021 made about an entirely different “unconstitutional Cabal” were placed out of context in the documentary film entitled “The Great Hoax” which gave the false impression that I was indicating that I believed that my own client, Lue Elizondo, as well as Mr. Christopher Mellon were privy to – and part of – such an unconstitutional conspiracy. They are NOT.

With this privileged potential comes responsibility.” This statement would not be surprising in a sci-fi movie. What would you say if you learned it came from a NASA report led by the organization’s chief scientist? Is NASA getting us ready for some sort of SETI announcement? Would “Klaatu barada nikto” be an inappropriate greeting? “Establishing best practices for communicating about life detection can serve to set reasonable expectations on the early stages of a hugely challenging endeavor, attach value to incremental steps along the path, and build public trust by making clear that false starts and dead ends are an expected and potentially productive part of the scientific process.” In a paper published this week in the journal Nature, NASA Chief Scientist James Green and a group of other NASA scientists seem to be saying it’s not to early to start practicing how the discovery of extraterrestrial life forms should be made. In a sign of the strange times we live in, one objective of the paper is to admit that the announcement of the discovery of and possible encounter with ETs “has a high potential to be sensationalized.” Really? What Green and his team are striving for is proactive approach to approaching extraterrestrial life forms. Most science fiction relies on ETs showing up by surprise, which leaves humans with limited choices, and, at least in the movies, the one selected is usually wrong … sometimes violently wrong. “History includes many claims of life detection that later proved incorrect or ambiguous when considered in exclusively binary terms. If, instead, we recast the search for life as a progressive endeavor, we convey the value of observations that are contextual or suggestive but not definitive and emphasize that false starts and dead ends are an expected part of a healthy scientific process.” Science Alert had full access to the report and shows that NASA is considering all of the options for all of the possible types and levels of life forms humans may discover or encounter – especially life forms that may be completely unfamiliar to us. To do this (and to avoid doing something stupid during the first encounter), the team suggests developing what it calls a “confidence of life detection” (CoLD) scale to scientifically determine if something is a life form. Phys.org explains what the scale might look like. The lowest level would be detection of a biosignature, followed by eliminating a false sign, predicting how the signal was generated, ruling out non-biological causes, observing the via other means, eliminating the possibility the biosignature came from earth (like the recent discovery that a signal from Proxima Centauri was actually human-generated from Earth) and finally declaring it to be a life form and studying it as such. “Establishing best practices for communicating about life detection can serve to set reasonable expectations on the early stages of a hugely challenging endeavor, attach value to incremental steps along the path, and build public trust by making clear that false starts and dead ends are an expected and potentially productive part of the scientific process.” Again, our strange times forces NASA to be more concerned about the current distrust of science and the sensationalization of news than it is about the history-changing achievement the discovery of extraterrestrial life will be. Let’s hope Green and his team find the right way to announce it before they show up on our doorstep and wonder why we’re all saying “Klaatu barada nikto.” mysteriousuniverse.org/2021/10/nasa-scientists-are-planning-for-how-to-announce-the-discovery-of-alien-life/

www.mysterywire.com/ufo/uaptf-update/Deadline Looms for Pentagon UFO Reportby: George Knapp / www.mysterywire.com/author/george-knapp/Posted: Jan 14, 2021 / MYSTERY WIRE — The clock is ticking for the Pentagon’s hush hush program to investigate UFOs. It’s called the Unidentified Aerial Phenomena Task Force (UAPTF), and it has been ordered to prepare a detailed overview of the UFO mystery for submission to Congress. However, there are already challenges to meeting this deadline. The first public mention of the UAPTF came in June 2020 when the Senate Intelligence Committee formally asked the Pentagon for a comprehensive analysis of the UFO mystery. Over the previous three years, members and staff of key committees had received closed door briefings about startling encounters between the U.S. military and UAPs. Senate Intelligence Chairman Sen. Marco Rubio acknowledged to Mystery Wire that lawmakers consider this to be a serious matter. “This is a very simple equation for me,” Rubio told Mystery Wire. “There are things flying over our military installations. We don’t know what they are or where they’re from. We don’t know if it’s some other country that’s doing it and we need to know the answer to that question, simple.” In august 2020, the Pentagon formally announced the creation of the task force, and in late December, the massive bill containing government funding and covid relief was signed into law, as first reported by blogger Danny Silva. U.S. Senator says UFOs could pose a threat to national security A provision in the bill authorized the task force to prepare a comprehensive analysis of the UFO mystery and submit it to Congress within 180 days, meaning around June 1st. Getting a straight story out of the Pentagon about its interest in UFOs has always been a challenge, and the same is true of the UAPTF. For one thing, it is not exactly a new creation. Veteran intelligence officer Lue Elizondo spent years as the program manager for the Advanced Aerospace Threat Identification Program (AATIP), the Pentagon’s previous UFO investigation. Luis Elizondo has been speaking with George Knapp for several years about his involvement in a once secret Pentagon program to study UFOs. When the New York Times first revealed the existence of AATIP in December 2017, the Pentagon said the program had ended in 2012 and that it didn’t really have anything to do with UFOs. Neither claim was true. Elizondo said the program never ended. It continued even after he left the government as a loose confederation of personnel in different parts of the national security apparatus. Elements of that investigation formed the basis of the newly named UAPTF. In a June 2018 interview, Elizondo said the funding to keep the AATIP program going was used by another Pentagon office.

medium.com/on-the-trail-of-the-saucers/dark-days-night-fdd91c7b71a1Flashboom at the UFO CorralWe’re living through the end of society’s denial about UFO/UAP reality. What we’re about to learn may take us to a dark place. People get ready.by Bryce Zabel / medium.com/@brycezabelAug 9,2022 This image was created by Alicia Fernandez and used in the NBC promotional campaign for the Dark Skies television series.
I’m an optimist about most things. That’s not an easy mindset in the face of climate change, politics gone mad, and living in LA when Kim Jong-un acquires a nuclear weapon. Throw in a supply chain meltdown, Covid and Monkeypox and whatever comes next, gas prices that feel like we’re running out the oil economy, and inflation like it’s 1974. So, yeah, it’s a lot. Wait. I forgot to mention the ETs. Or whatever they turn out to be. For over a decade now, I’ve been living with what I consider to be near-certain knowledge that there is another intelligence interacting with us here on Earth. There may even be more than one. If so, some of them may be coming from a very dark place. Contact won’t be all mystery and wonder. There may be parts of the Phenomenon that are awesome and mind-blowing, plus some that are disturbingly impossible to fathom completely, and others that are horrorshows. Remember multiple choice questions? It’s going to take a lot to explain a Phenomenon that includes animal mutilations, human abductions, radiation burns, challenges to our military pilots and a close interest in our nuclear assets. Contact isn’t, however, an elective you can opt out of. It’s a core class that we all are going to have to take together. Ready or not, here it comes. Disclosure implies the giving of information. Official disclosure will be limited. This is going to be DIY. There are probably people alive today on Earth who have a fairly advanced idea of the nature of the challenge we’re living with. They know about a few of the players at least, some may have seen crash wreckage and actual craft with their own eyes, while others could have performed tests on the tissue of recovered bodies (and possibly on a few that were living). The stories we’ll be reporting in the future are likely to be quite strange. Those people obviously know more than I do. That’s why when Lue Elizondo says we’ll likely be somber when we learn the truth, it’s like a punch to the gut. What exactly do they know? Or what don’t they know? I’m in a game of cosmic ‘Beat the Clock.’ I remember first coming to Los Angeles as a CNN correspondent, then becoming a young screenwriter selling TV drama series. It felt like I was always the youngest guy in the room. Not anymore. If there are cards to lay down, I want to see them in my lifetime. No matter what they are. Don’t you? Coordinated or not, it appears now that elements in government, media, academia, military, science and religion are making constantly bolder moves toward looking for answers and involving the public. Not all of them agree with each other, and certainly within their own specialties there is division of opinion. Even so, it’s starting to seem like significant numbers of inside players assume some form of disclosure must happen. Don’t expect to get a terra-byte of photos and videos for your screen savers though. That’s big “D” Disclosure and it’s a ways off. Expect instead — Confirmation Over the next several years, we’ll confirm that not only is UAP a real thing but we have a strong idea of where they come from and who operates them, that the secrecy was invoked for a good reason that got out of control, and we still don’t know as much as we need to. All other verbiage aside, they will simply confirm that we are not alone. Then the games will begin. The militaries of the Earth will ask for and get even more money. Politicians will hold hearings. Funding will finally flow toward scientific studies. Journalists will wake up and start doing their jobs. Religions will incorporate these events into their beliefs. Hollywood ET content will be as popular as the old Westerns. There will be more than a few citizens who are *angry* off royal about the lies. Whether you lived through them or not, think the 1960s but with aliens. Do I know exactly when this new world is going to happen? Of course not. To be on the safe side, start hoarding toilet paper again, just in case. medium.com/on-the-trail-of-the-saucers/dark-days-night-fdd91c7b71a1

Classified UFO videos would 'harm national security' if released, Navy says
By Brandon Specktor published Sept. 7, 2022
The Navy admitted it has a lot more footage of UFOs — but won't share them anytime soon.
The U.S. Navy holds unseen videos of unidentified flying objects (UFOs) — or unidentified aerial phenomena (UAP), as the Department of Defense (DOD) prefers to call them — but will not release the footage publicly because it would "harm national security," a Navy spokesperson wrote Wednesday (Sept. 7).The admission came in response to a Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) request filed by the government transparency site The Black Vault, which has previously shared thousands of pages of UFO-related documents received via FOIA requests to the CIA and other government agencies. The Black Vault filed the FOIA request to the U.S. Navy in April 2020 — just one day after the Navy declassified three now-infamous videos shot by Navy pilots showing high-tech aircraft moving in seemingly impossible ways. The Black Vault requested that the Navy now turn over any and all other videos related to UAP.
More than two years later, the government responded with a letter that both confirmed that more UAP videos exist and denied the request to turn them over due to national security concerns.Interestingly, in its response to The Black Vault's request, the Navy did not make any attempts to conceal the existence of additional UAP videos. There are clearly more videos of inexplicable UFO encounters in the Navy's archives, but how many and what they depict will have to remain a mystery for now.It's clear, however, that the U.S. military takes the potential threat of UAP very seriously. In May 2022, the DOD held its first public hearing on UFOs since the 1960s. The hearing primarily discussed a June 2021 Pentagon report that revealed U.S. Navy pilots had reported 144 UAP sightings since 2004. More recently, the DOD announced that it will receive federal funding to open a new office focused exclusively on managing reports of UFO sightings by the U.S. Army, Navy and Air Force.

thedebrief.org/here-comes-the-october-surprise/#sq_h6gtuldrwmHERE COMES THE OCTOBER SURPRISEby Bryce Zabel / 9-23-2022 2022 may be poised to have the greatest political October Surprise in the history of United States elections. That’s right. Unidentified flying objects dumped smack into the middle of a national midterm election. UFOs as a political issue. Candidates were questioned about where they stand on the issue. It sounds crazy. It’s not going to happen. Right? I mean, right? In U.S. politics, an “October Surprise” is a news event that may influence the outcome of an upcoming November election, whether deliberately planned or spontaneously occurring. Because the date for national elections is in early November, events that take place in October have greater potential to influence the decisions of prospective voters; thus, relatively last-minute news stories could either change the course of an election or reinforce the inevitable.
