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."

Drip, drip, drip...
I’m not overly surprised.
I’m with Joe Rogan on this. The fact is that the official recognition of events is gaining momentum. It’s like we are being mentally prepared for something bigger.
I've see of few of these unexplained, "Things".

There was a sighting, confirmed by many people, last week in a north Atlanta suburb. Now I’m no UFO nut, but many folks have confirmed the same sighting. Now that Biden is in office and this country is going to hell in a hand basket, I wouldn’t be surprised if UFOs were confirmed.
Who knows?
We know that they are unidentified, hence the name unidentified flying objects.
Is there anything to legends of places such as Area 51, where in the movie “Independence Day”, they went to Area 51 and depicted research work on captured UFOs?
I’ve heard of cases where multiple witnesses to unidentified aircraft tell similar stories of what they saw, and also cases in which radar systems pick up the movements of unidentified entities.
Maybe someday we will know answers to the questions people have.
I have a brother who lives in East Cobb. Did it occur near there?
I watched that movie last weekend. Much fun.
Full disclosure is happening......at a snail’s pace.
Wow....all this time....we were waiting on this guy to produce damning declas info, on the DS....and, this is what we get?
Color me unimpressed.
Disclosure is coming. We are not alone. We have never been alone :>)
Oh boy. Maybe we'll be told Democrats are actually alien to this world, sent here to cause chaos and destroy the U.S.☺

I was told 30 years ago that all the ‘good stuff’ had been moved to some secret base in either Utah or Idaho. What remains at Groom Lake is just our stuff being tested.
The government bureaucracy moves very slowly.
I read some years back that people who worked in Area 51 were coming down with sicknesses doctors couldn't diagnose. When they asked the military there what their patients were exposed to, they were stonewalled. The Las Vegas Review Journal had a lot of stories on that.
Elsewhere, I read that the real secret of Area 51 was that the ground there was so polluted by toxic chemicals they were using for fuel, they hid everything so the EPA wouldn't go ballistic (no pun intended).
