UFO debrief: Intel officials say US has retrieved craft of non-human origin

52

The federal government is being pressed to reveal evidence of unidentified flying objects, after a former intelligence official is on the record saying that the government is in possession of “intact and partially intact” vehicles of alien origin.

David Grusch, an ex-official who spearheaded the analysis of unexplained anomalous phenomena (UAP) for a Department of Defense agency, contends that these extraterrestrial crafts are known to the US government. Grusch shared his alarming revelations with the Debrief, declaring that information on these vehicles is being unlawfully withheld from Congress.

UAP is the new preferred government acronym for what most Americans know as UFOs.

Grusch’s 14-year tenure in US intelligence ended suddenly in April, following what he describes as retaliation for turning over classified information regarding the alien vehicles to Congress. His departure and subsequent revelations have fueled renewed interest in the study of UAPs and the potential existence of extraterrestrial life. He has become a whistleblower.

Corroborating Grusch’s claims, Jonathan Grey, a current US intelligence official at the National Air and Space Intelligence Center, confirmed the existence of “exotic materials” in an interview with the online publication called The Debrief. “We are not alone,” he said.

Robert F. Kennedy, a Democrat running for president, commented on the revelation in a Twitter post that jokingly referred to the movie “Men in Black.”

This information surfaces amidst a recent uptick in sightings and reports of alien ships, revitalizing the discussion around extraterrestrial visits.

But it raises questions about whether the government has been truthful about what it knows about extraterrestrials, or if this is an election-year distraction for political gain. If the government was untruthful before, what makes its information more credible now? With a presidential election on the horizon, will this be the new national emergency, as the Covid-19 virus was in 2020?

The reality is, this has been simmering for years among military pilots. In 2021, the Pentagon released a report documenting over 140 instances of UAP encounters that couldn’t be explained, including military footage showing apparently inexplicable happenings in the sky. Navy pilots have spoken of their frequent encounters with strange craft off the coast of the United States.

One of the authors of The Debrief article, David Blumenthal, spent 45 years as a writer for the New York Times. He said that he and co-author Leslie Kean took this story to The Debrief because the Washington Post was taking too much time and the authors were under pressure to publish it quickly,. This indicates the story was getting leaked out to other media and the two were fearful of getting scooped.

According to a report this year in Popular Mechanics, former U.S. Air Force personnel told the Pentagon about their encounters with UFOs back in the 1960s. The officers reportedly recently told the government’s “All-domain Anomaly Resolution Office” (AARO) that they had several encounters with the objects near U.S. military bases. The AARO office was set up by the Pentagon for investigating UAP sightings.

“Former U.S. Navy officer Sean Cahill, who claims to have witnessed the infamous ‘Tic Tac’ incident sighted off the U.S.S. Nimitz aircraft carrier in 2004, said on Twitter recently that he wants more information on UFOs. He urged his followers not to let ‘those [with] agendas and cognitive blocks … use the current balloon flap to muddy the water.’ He added: ‘Don’t take the bait; demand identification and evidence of each incident’s origin.'”
