Military whistleblower goes public with claims US has secret UFO retrieval program: ‘Terrestrial arms race’

An Air Force veteran is blowing the whistle on alleged secret U.S. military programs which he claims have been retrieving craft of "non-human origin" for at least several decades.

David Charles Grusch, a 36-year-old decorated former combat officer in Afghanistan, served the National Reconnaissance Office, acting as their representative to Congress’ Unidentified Aerial Phenomena Task Force from 2019-2021. At the National Geospatial-Intelligence Agency, he also served from late 2021 to July 2022 as co-lead of unidentified aerial phenomena (UAP) analysis and its representative to the task force, which was recently renamed the All Domain Anomaly Resolution Office.

[...]

"We are not talking about prosaic origins or identities," Grusch said of the information he submitted to Congress and the ICIG. "The material includes intact and partially intact vehicles."

Grusch also sat down for an interview with NewsNation, claiming that many senior and former intelligence officers, many of whom he knew nearly his whole career, began confiding in him and provided documents and other "proof" that they were part of a secret craft retrieval program that the UAP Task Force "was not read into."

"These are retrieving non-human origin technical vehicles, call it spacecraft if you will, non-human exotic origin vehicles that have either landed or crashed," Grusch said.

"Well, naturally, when you recover something that’s either landed or crashed. Sometimes you encounter dead pilots and believe it or not, as fantastical as that sounds, it’s true."

"We’re definitely not alone," he said. "The data points, quite empirically that we’re not alone."

[...]

Per protocol, Grusch notified the Department of Defense of the information he intended to disclose to The Debrief, and the Pentagon cleared those intended on-the-record-statements for open publication in April – just days before Grusch left the government.

Thank God. I was worried that this thread wouldn’t have any squirrels.

So what are they distracting everyone from now? Ukraine debacle? Bankrupt USA? Treasonous government?

CRT, BLM, Trans hysteria all dying... so what?

If this is a distraction, it might be a distraction from the Marxist revolution that is underway in the country.

I think the question is, is this a distraction or is it UFO/UAP disclosure...or is it something else entirely?

It probably makes good sense to look at the evidence before deciding (even if the evidence that the government is going to show us is only circumstantial).

I miss Art Bell.

but I am a little skeptical of these claims.

if there are ‘alien’ craft and artifacts where did they come from ? Most will agree that someplace outside the solar system is unlikely, so that leaves one of the other planets in this system, or maybe the moon if you believe it is hollow and was some kind of ship and used in teraforming the current Earth.

otherwise there is some interdimensional travel going on in which case everything might make a little more sense, and would explain why the alien craft do not seem to be really advanced.

If there was an extra terestral race I at least would expect their tech to be so confounding we could not reverse engineer it.

Can you imagine benjamin franklin trying to reverse engineer an intel i7 chip ? how about an apple Iphone or a flatscreen tv

As much as I find this whistleblower's claims mindboggling (and it takes a lot of courage to blow the whistle when you know the government is going to destroy your career), I think it makes sense to be skeptical.

If what this whistleblower is claiming is true (and he's not making these claims without solid sources and support), reality as we know it is about to change significantly.

It's probably a good idea to take a deep breath, keep a clear head, and proceed cautiously.

I think you're right about peeling the onion. From what I've been hearing, this announcement has been in the works for a few months now (at a minimum). And we're seeing only the tip of the iceberg.

Ross Coulthart, the well-known Australian journalist, interviewed this whistleblower for 7 hours and the release of that interview is the next step.

I have no idea what comes after that...but hopefully there's some evidence on the way.

What is even more interesting is that he is technically not a whistle blower. The DoD authorities reviewed what he was going to say and OK’d it. Which means that at the very least, the authorities believe that this would not compromise National Security. Interesting indeed.

“cleared his statement in advance (as accurate).”

Cleared as accurate? I doubt it. Their job is to clear statements as not including classified or sensitive national security information. They are not fact checkers.

Bob Lazar talked about this years ago and the powers that be made some pretty laughable attempts to discredit him.

I talked to an interesting guy several years ago who said his dad was one of the guys trying to reverse engineer some of the alien technology. I really wouldn’t be shocked that my dad might have been working or at least quizzed about some of it when he was working on the Test Site.

The writer has forgotten more about this topic than the vast majority of Freepers will ever know.

You raise a good point.

That said, as I understand it--and I may be wrong--the information Grusch released to the public is included with information included in his classified testimony to Congress and in a classified complaint to the Inspector General of the Intelligence Community. Obviously, the information he released to the public was unclassified but was part of his classified testimony.

Though his testimony of classified and unclassified evidence was not, per se, a DOD work product, it was cleared for accuracy (the DOPSR does clear Work Products for accuracy) because it was testimony made about his work as an official.

This is a point that was made in one of the interviews with Ross Coulthart.

Let me repeat, because there was so much material, I may have misunderstood this point.

It’s always the government that finds them. Always.

Wonder why.
