Former intelligence chief: 'Quite a few more' UFOs detected than public knows (John Ratcliffe, Trump's DNI)
washingtonexaminer.com ^ | Daniel Chaitin,

Posted on 03/20/2021 4:43:21 PM PDT by RoosterRedux

A former top intelligence official raised expectations on Friday for a forthcoming U.S. government disclosure on what it knows about UFOs.

John Ratcliffe, who served as director of national intelligence under former President Donald Trump, was asked on Fox News by host Maria Bartiromo what he knows about unidentified flying objects that have captured people's imaginations for generations.

"There are a lot more sightings than have been made public," Ratcliffe said. "Some of those have been declassified. And when we talk about sightings, we are talking about objects that have seen by Navy or Air Force pilots, or have been picked up by satellite imagery that frankly engage in actions that are difficult to explain. Movements that are hard to replicate that we don’t have the technology for. Or traveling at speeds that exceed the sound barrier without a sonic boom."

After saying that there have been sightings all around the world, Ratcliffe insisted that reports of "unidentified aerial phenomena" already in the public eye are only part of the bigger picture.

"When we talk about sightings, the other thing I will tell you is, it's not just a pilot or just a satellite, or some intelligence collection," Ratcliffe said. "Usually we have multiple sensors that are picking up these things, and ... some of these are unexplained phenomenon, and there is actually quite a few more than have been made public."

Maybe we’ll be told Democrats are actually alien to this world, sent here to cause chaos and destroy the U.S.☺


Its the Democrats who will be reviling that white people are aliens who have been despoiling the environment for the past 6000 years

I think those videos are not of ships but living beings. I get the impression they have no interest in communicating with us.

" have been picked up by satellite imagery"

What? He might be breaking some news here. I don't recall seeing any stories from official or unofficial sources that describe UFOs being detected by 'satellite imager.'

Does anyone else know what he's talking about?

I’ve never see a UFO, as far as I know,but I have seen a wisp a couple of times and I dud see planes flying in formation across the sky, in patterns, and leaving contrails behind.

I think we'll find out that the senior officers of the FBI are reptilians.;-)

At least Peter Strzok is. And that's pretty big news about the DS.

The toxic waste angle isn’t a story. That happened. Jonathan Turley worked on that case for years on behalf of several former airmen and (I believe) contractors that became sick from burning that material.

I don’t think there are any allegations the toxic waste was ‘not of this earth.’ Instead, it was just routine hazardous waste that should have been properly disposed of by people with training and the right equipment which none of these service members apparently had.

Muslim Cows would have a suicide bomber vest on instead of sensors.

We’ve had earth orbiting military spacecraft up there, not much bigger than a large satellite, and they won’t even discuss the mission objectives.

Amen. Trust no one’s narrative.

Not saying the truth isn’t in there somewhere, but the superficial narrative is probably a lie, whether coming from a government, our scientists, or a so-called alien himself.

I heard that the material they use to cover the wings of the stealthy planes is part of the toxic problem.

Yes. One woman reports seeing a round image on a satellite photo.

She said that looks like a bubble on the film. (This was a while back!)

The guy who shouldn’t have showed it to her but did, pointed to another feature and asked her if bubbles cast shadows...

...and then the SOB stonewalled her!

There’s a YouTube channel that focuses on watching video taken by the ISS and every time the video goes dead they highlight the part just before it went dead to show potential UFO activity.
