Alright, UFO sightings—the military can't explain them. Congressional hearings, Pentagon whistleblowers, and armadas of strange aircraft flying over, of all places, New Jersey. What does it all mean?
Since last year's groundbreaking interview with whistleblower David Grusch, NewsNation has been leading the coverage on this story. And now, we have another major exclusive. A whistleblower is coming forward, not just claiming he's heard about a secret government program to retrieve UFO crash remains—he says he's worked on it.
He claims to have video evidence, credentials, and colleagues who back him up. He’s also caught the attention of at least one senior lawmaker. NewsNation's Ross Coulthart has been working on this story for over a year and conducted the interview for a special report airing this Saturday at 8:00 PM Eastern. NewsNation correspondent Joe Khalil is here with a first look. Joe, these are pretty stunning claims.
Joe Khalil:
Yeah, they are, Elizabeth. The man in the video, Jake Barbour, is an Air Force veteran coming forward with shocking claims. He’s the first person to publicly state that he directly participated in a secret military program to retrieve UFO or alien craft.
Barbour says he was contracted as a helicopter pilot to retrieve all kinds of crashed craft. While some were top secret but explainable, he believes others were of non-human origin. And he’s not alone—three other military veterans are backing up his story, on the record and on camera. Take a listen to part of Ross Coulthart’s conversation with Barbour.
Ross Coulthart (interview):
So, tell me about the moment when you realized you were involved in a retrieval.
Jake Barbour:
It became very clear the first time our communication process was modified. And visually, just looking at the object on the ground, you could tell it was extraordinary and anomalous. It was not human.
Ross Coulthart:
How close did you get?
Jake Barbour:
Well, I was a helicopter pilot, operating with 150- to 200-foot-long lines, so I got within 150 feet of this object.
Ross Coulthart:
What did you see?
Jake Barbour:
I saw a shiny white object. There was no visible propulsion system, no engine, no signature. I was operating at night under night vision goggles, and it was quite clear. I flipped them up and down and looked at it in a couple of different ways.
Ross Coulthart:
How did you know it was of non-human origin?
Jake Barbour:
After seeing all kinds of things in my career, it was clearly something ridiculous, something inconsistent with anything I’d ever seen before. The reaction from my team confirmed it—we all knew we were dealing with something extraordinary.
Joe Khalil:
Barbour also claims that this experience has been confirmed to him by ranking members of the UAP Task Force, who told him the object was indeed a UFO. He adds that this wasn’t a unique experience.
This Saturday at 8:00 PM Eastern, you’ll see the special report, including exclusive video of one of these retrievals—footage that has never been shown before. We’ve also confirmed that Barbour has met with high-level Senate staff.
Host:
Wow, that’s a blockbuster. Alright, Joe Khalil, thanks so much. Everyone can watch the special report, *Hunting UFOs*, this weekend.
The Cargo cult people are a good example of that, but we aren’t Amazonians or Cargo cult people.
The question is how you build such a complete entire coexisting physical race and side by side physical world out of nothing.
Why would they prefer living underground anyway, and how did they grow so much more advanced down there without ever moving to the surface, is it that great a place for growth, were they ever a primitive people?
Those are all good questions.
Supposedly the planet has had a long history of cataclysms of various kinds.
Any truly ancient civilization could have lived above ground for thousand of years and then been badly harmed by such cataclysms—and forced to survive underground for a period of time.
At some point they may have developed good enough technology to build paradises there not subject to bad weather, astronomical objects whatever.
(That said—earthquakes could be a big problem for such settlements.)
We have only been a technological society for a few hundred years—imagine what we might be able to do given ten thousand years.
The biggest question of all is why create all those detailed explanations about people and cities and perhaps even countries, that aren’t even there, that do not exist?
How does one decide that these people are there and have always been there, and then start building an entire history and reality of why and how they are there, as though they are real?
Their population must be vast, their cities immense, their needs and waste vast, their global imprint huge, their government and politics incredibly complex, yet they remain invisible to our science and probing, monitors and sensors, except for those clumsy flying machines of theirs with no reasonable purpose that keep wanting to look at the same things and probe the same people.
I did not create this version of history.
This has become the consensus of folks who have spent a lot of time trying to explain what is happening out there.
It may not be 100% correct—but I suspect it is in the ballpark....
Thanks for the explanation and descriptions.
If the subject is nonsensical, why do you even bother with it?
You don’t seem to understand what you read, and you still can’t say what it is you believe about the UFO stuff.
Again, with the personal attacks.
Belief in anything other than God is for retards. I have already reported on what I observed. I have no idea what they were. I am skeptical about the theories presented so far, including your own flapjack theories.
Ponder that.
Your ramblings still don’t make sense, you have been on attack all day in an angry and confused fashion and I still don’t know why or what you think of the topic of the thread.
Great. We're done here. I made a mistake violating my tag with you.
You said you saw something but the possibility that it would be man made set you off and you think it is a goofy ‘flapjack theory” and clearly angers you, but you won’t reveal what you think it was or what the UFO stuff is about.
So far the theories are man made advanced aircraft, space aliens, underground world earthlings, but you imply that you have another one that you won’t reveal.
The burden of proof is not on me but those who claim these instances to be extraterrestrial.
The proof is not really necessary. The true test will be the ability to cope.
But I haven't checked with the expert on these matters:
OK, what about gowns and head coverings...?
