Whistleblower calls for government transparency as Congress digs for the truth about UFOs

Retrieved on: 
Thursday, July 27, 2023

A congressional subcommittee met on June 26, 2023, to hear testimony from several military officers who allege the government is concealing evidence of UFOs.

Key Points: 
  • A congressional subcommittee met on June 26, 2023, to hear testimony from several military officers who allege the government is concealing evidence of UFOs.
  • By holding a hearing on UFOs – now called “unidentified anomalous phenomena” by government agencies – the subcommittee sought to understand whether these UAPs pose a threat to national security.

UFO oversight so far

    • In June 2021, the Office of the Director of National Intelligence released a report on the phenomena.
    • In November 2021, the Pentagon formed a new group to coordinate efforts to detect and identify objects in restricted airspace.
    • Then in May 2022, a House Intelligence subcommittee held the first congressional hearing in over half a century on military reports of UAPs.
    • So the subcommittee is using its overall charge of oversight and accountability to get some answers.

Eyebrow-raising testimony

    • Three witnesses, all ex-military officers, gave sworn testimony to the subcommittee.
    • Video of the encounter was released by the Department of Defense in 2017 and publicized by The New York Times.
    • Fravor testified that the technology he witnessed was far superior to anything human beings have.
    • He described objects with no visible means of propulsion carrying out sudden maneuvers that no known technology could achieve.
    • He recounted a situation in which two jets had to take evasive action as they encountered a UAP.

Calls for transparency

    • Lawmakers from both parties called for more government transparency.
    • The push for government transparency will likely intensify, and subcommittee members hope to have a classified briefing to evaluate the claims made by Grusch.
    • If Grusch’s claims of crashed UAPs are ever verified, that will be the first UAP hearing with a truly dramatic outcome.
