A House subcommittee is scheduled to hold next week the first open congressional hearing on unidentified aerial vehicles in more than half a century, with testimony from two top defense intelligence officials.
The hearing comes after the release last June of a report requested by Congress on “unidentified aerial phenomena.” The nine-page “Preliminary Assessment” from the Office of the Director of National Intelligence focused on 144 incidents dating back to 2004 and was able to explain only one.
The report declined to draw inferences, saying that the available reporting was “largely inconclusive” and noting that limited and inconsistent data created a challenge in evaluating the phenomena. But it said most of the phenomena reported “do represent physical objects.”
The assessment concluded that the objects were not secret U.S. technology and that “we currently lack data to indicate any UAP are part of a foreign collection program or indicative of a major technological advancement by a potential adversary.”
The hearing, scheduled for next Tuesday, is intended to focus on the work of a group within the Pentagon that is following up on the national security and flight-safety questions raised by the report.
“Since this is an area of high public interest, any undue secrecy can serve as an obstacle to solving the mystery, or it could prevent us from finding solutions to potential vulnerabilities,” said Representative André Carson, Democrat of Indiana and the chairman of the House Intelligence Committee’s subcommittee on counterterrorism, counterintelligence, and counterproliferation, which is holding the hearing. “This hearing is about examining steps that the Pentagon can take to reduce the stigma surrounding reporting by military pilots, and by civilian pilots.”

Let's get real boys and girls...Can you say Mexican Border??
Rep Tim Burchett describes how Congress is pissed off...
***********
LOL. Congress gets pissed off but never does anything to hold anyone accountable. No wonder the agencies ignore, stonewall and deceive them. No consequences.
The Deep State runs DC.
Sure.....because we need the idiots and hacks in Congress to look into the unexplained...……..
Aliens, waiting for the right moment to tip over Guam.
They should look into Bigfoot sightings while they are at it. The People have a right to know!
what a joke and waste of time. All of these sightings are classified aircraft and combat items that are called UFOs. Calling classified military aerial equipment UFOs relieves the Pentagon from having to explain what they are and their military uses. UFO nomenclature is a brilliant idea.
Please don’t tell Leaky Leahy about UFOs.
No one reads the bible. The answers they seek are in there
I agree that viewing this entire matter through a Biblical lens perfectly explains it. That said, I am keeping an open mind as the mystery unfurls just in case this is something else.
“We know nothing, we see NOTHING!”
How about the Navy trying to send up a helicopter check out the UFOs?
I see these things that is a threat try shooting one down maybe..
Navy tried anti-drone manpads multiple times. No effect on UAS.
If you do some research you’ll find historical cases where a fighter fired on a UAS and was subsequently lost.
A couple years ago a Phoenix (or was it Tucson?) TV station helicopter pursued a UAS for some distance. The UAS literally flew circles around the Jet Ranger
The Left is still trying to push the Fake News Harry Reid promoted before he died.
They want Americans to look the wrong direction again while they continue their march to Communism.
The Pentagon has been playing “hide the ball” on this topic for at least seventy five years—and Congress just figured it out...
Clever!
