Three witnesses unveiled for UFO hearing next week (House Oversight Committee hearing)

Rep. Tim Burchett, R-Tenn., confirmed Thursday that there will be three witnesses who will testify during next week’s hearing: Ryan Graves, Americans for Safe Aerospace executive director; David Fravor, a former commanding officer of the Black Aces Squadron with the U.S. Navy; and David Grusch, a former national reconnaissance officer representative of the Unidentified Anomalous Phenomena Task Force with the Department of Defense.

Grusch had told NewsNation in an exclusive interview that the Pentagon is covering up proof of alien life. Graves had reported multiple UAP targets and warned the Pentagon these encounters are putting us at risk.

Burchette said this year’s hearing is going to be different from last year’s, where everyone who testified claimed the information sought was classified. With the three whistleblowers sharing their experiences, the American public will finally receive a resemblance of an answer.

He said the committee has received a tremendous amount of pushback from other members of Congress, the Intelligence community and the Pentagon. Even NASA backed out on them.

“This is ridiculous, folks. Either they do exist or they don’t exist,” Burchett said. “They keep telling us they don’t exist, but they block every opportunity for us to get a hold of the information to prove if they do exist. We are going to get to the bottom of it, whatever the truth may be. We are done with the coverup.”

[...]

The House Oversight Committee hearing on UAPs/UFOs will be held on July 26 at 10 a.m. ET.

“ I 100% believe in UFO”

I certainly believe people have detected objects in the air they can’t identify. I have no reason to believe they are alien craft from another world.

“There are people who deny that Apollo landed on the moon, tons of physical evidence and crystal clear photographs notwithstanding. Ultimately, everything hinges on accepting witness testimony.”

The fact that there are some people who refuse to believe any standard of evidence does not mean that people who demand a certain standard of evidence are irrational, nor does it mean that claims for which there is no physical evidence must be accepted despite that lack.

“There are more witness to UFOs alive right now than people who met Jesus.”

Now hold on now, let’s unpack that. First, these supposed witnesses did not all see the same thing, and they do not all agree on what they saw, and their details are not all consistent. To just lump them all in as “UFO witnesses” is a bit simplistic, no? Some just witnessed a light in the sky and don’t know what it was. Some witnessed a light in the sky moving strangely. Some claim to have witnessed an actual vessel, and many have reported vessels that look similar, but many have also reported vessels that do not look similar at all. And some have reported actual contact with living beings inside these vessels, and again, some of those reports match up in the details and others do not.

If this was a court case, a prosecutor would not want to even try to call all of those witnesses, and in fact, some of them would end up being called by the defense, since their conflicting testimony would impeach the witnesses the prosecution did call. So just saying “so many witnesses” may sound convincing, but once you look at what the witnesses are saying and how that testimony actually contributes (and detracts from) the veracity of the claim, it’s not so simple.

“It is always a matter of faith and the desire to believe or disbelieve.”

No, it’s really not. For something supernatural like God, then yes. For something real in the physical world, then no, it is not normal or even rational to expect anything to be taken on faith. Asking people to take a supposedly real, physical phenomenon on faith is a habit of hucksters, cult leaders, and con artists, not a habit that rational people engage in.

Good news—a step in the right direction even if it is just a baby step.

First contact with aliens could end in colonization and genocide if we don’t learn from history

Those multitudes did not act as direct witnesses to this age, therefore, what is in the Bible is what is called hearsay evidence. The "second hand" witnesses are already classified as hearsay, but over 100 generations in the past.

The real difference between these two topics is the intervention of the Holy Spirit. Even your Faith is a Gift from God.

I suppose it depends upon how deeply you have gone into UFO lore.

So, do we have 100 people claiming “fairies are real”? No, we don’t. What might the difference be? Actual observation?

No, in both Matthew and John we have first hand accounts of Jesus meeting with scores of people. If both were alive to testify it would not be hearsay.

If both were alive to testify it would not be hearsay. The multitude did not get interviewed when the Bible was written, nor did they materially participate in the writing. Matthew and John made an account of the other people witnessing Jesus. They could not prove that in a court of law.

The lore has it that the greys do not have gender.

“There are people who deny that Apollo landed on the moon, tons of physical evidence and crystal clear photographs notwithstanding.”

At least one of the Apollo crews left a mirror on the moon and you can bounce lasers off of it to prove it was put there.

The deniers deny that as well. They are a pathetic lot.

“The deniers deny that as well. They are a pathetic lot.”

I agree. And the UFO deniers are starting to come off as pathetic too. While I won’t say these things are proof of aliens there’s enough evidence and testimony now that it’s safe to conclude that whatever they are they are real.

I’ll start there and hopefully we can all find out more about them. Or we can find out what our government has been hiding from us.

Matthew and John personally saw Jesus interacting with multitudes. For them to say that is not hearsay.

It sounds like you think the things must be extraterrestrial, but that has yet to be established.

I think they are either extraterrestrial or inter dimensional, yet to be established. I am sure that some humans know the exact answer.

Yes, they seem to be preparing the public for something.
