Former intelligence chief: 'Quite a few more' UFOs detected than public knows (John Ratcliffe, Trump's DNI)

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."

“It’s like we are being mentally prepared for something bigger.”

Got that right. They’re already here.

Maybe they haven’t contacted us because they’re an advance race that believes in peace and liberty.... Aka space libertarians.

What would the left do if the aliens came out of space ships and said, “Hello, I’d like to tell you about our friend Jesus Christ”.

And how are space aliens any more believable than God? We have way more proof for him.

Interesting. I’ve always there was probably life out there. As crazy as humans have gotten in recent years, they’re probably spying to figure out what happened to us.

I think disclosure is coming but at a point to do maximum damage or maximum damage control. Major emphasis will be placed on these are our friends, be dubious of the claim considering the deep state will be the ones saying trust these things and a maximum effort will be made to destroy organized religions except for Catholic faith, the Vatican had indicated they will work with all parties should something such as this happening.

Something to consider.

If our Government was aware of Actual Space Aliens that have come in any contact with the population, what would they do?

Acknowledge their existence?

Not likely, or at least, not directly.

Deny their existence?

Yes, but with a twist.

The idea would be to make people think they are hiding something, to let people create a conspiracy that there are in fact Space Aliens and the Government is concealing the evidence.

This puts the Government and super secret groups in control of the safety of our Planet and mankind.

When the Left runs out of ways to exert power, this will be next.

I was at a private dinner with a well-known former Secretary of Defense and in a private conversation with him I asked if UFO’s did indeed exist. He basically evaded answering the question.

I shared the conversation with a friend who also attended and his reply was “you got your answer”.

Some of the declass he promised would have been nice.
