Former senior defense officials issued stark warnings to lawmakers Thursday about intensifying threats posed by unattributed drone incursions and unidentified aerial phenomena (UAP) reported around the U.S. — particularly over military bases, assets, and nuclear facilities. “I don’t think the public is aware of the extent of our airspace vulnerabilities and failures, and the degree to which they’ve already been exploited and are being exploited today, and the challenge that we face in trying to sort this out,” Christopher Mellon, the former deputy assistant secretary of defense for intelligence, said during an event hosted on Capitol Hill by the UAP...

Rep. Tim Burchett (R-Tenn.) called for the government to reveal what it’s spending taxpayer money on relating to Unidentified Aerial Phenomena (UAP) amid growing calls from lawmakers for increased transparency on the issue. “They’re spending tens of millions of dollars on this subject. And then they turn around tell us they don’t exist,” the Tennessee Republican told NewsNation’s Blake Burman on “The Hill” Friday. Burchett stressed the need for greater government transparency on extraterrestrial life while discussing the recent hiring of former intelligence officer and UFO whistleblower David Grusch by Rep. Burlison (R-Mo.). “I think he can help us ask...

There was an official statement about the New Jersey Drones from the White House today. They say they were indeed FAA approved and done for research. Do we believe this? Do we like the statement made?

As 2024 comes to a close, so does the final celestial show for skywatchers of the year: the Ursid meteor shower. The Ursids will be most active between Dec. 21 and 22, peaking on the 22nd. This makes it a perfect focus for nighttime winter solstice skywatching in the Northern Hemisphere. The shower is expected to produce up to around ten meteors per hour that will be visible at most dark locations. Marc Dantonio, an astronomer and founder of Sky Tour Live Stream Observatories, told The Debrief that although the Ursids’ forthcoming appearance won’t technically peak on the solstice, they...

Amid FBI and state investigations into reports about several mysterious nighttime drone flights across central and northern New Jersey, sightings are now being reported in South Jersey. Evesham police said Thursday night that they were "aware of the recent surge in drone activity" in the skies above the Burlington County township. ---SNIP--- On Thursday, New Jersey Gov. Phil Murphy posted on social media he had met with Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas, members of the federal Department of Homeland Security, state police and members of the Garden State's congressional delegation "discuss reported drone activity over parts of North and Central New Jersey."

On Friday morning, Pentagon officials held a classified briefing with the House Oversight Committee on Capitol Hill reportedly to discuss the unidentified objects flying over military sites and President-elect Donald Trump’s golf course in central New Jersey. Nearly every night for the past few weeks, New Jersey residents have spotted mysterious objects flying at night and recorded them on video. Some find the size alarming reporting they're seeing objects the size of a small car. Officials are concerned because the objects are flying over a military installation, the Picatinny Arsenal, and over Trump's Bedminster Golf Club. In response, the FAA...

This interview by House Intelligence Committee Chairman Mike Turner is buckets of interesting and simultaneously very revealing. Playing along with the big club intelligence game as framed by Margaret Brennan, HPSCI Chairman Turner showcases his weasel nature and alignment with the worst actors in the Intelligence Community from the outset. Watch it closely and you will notice that Turner frames national intelligence activity as a political product. ..... Snip..... Representative Mike Turner really is one of the worst members of congress. I would rank Turner’s corrupt and Machiavellian status right next to SSCI Chairman Mark Warner. Turner will defend the...

Rep. Tim Burchett is introducing a new bill designed to force the US government to release all of its UFO files. Things could soon get very interesting for UFO disclosure advocates - that is, at least, if a new congressional bill introduced by Rep. Tim Burchett this week actually passes. At only 1.5 pages in length, the bill - entitled 'The UAP Transparency Act' - isn't exactly very large. If it did happen to pass, however, it would force the President of the United States to not only order all government agencies to release all of their UFO-related documents to...

The ex-US intelligence officer recently talked a bit more about his findings on the Joe Rogan Experience podcast. Grusch, who previously worked with the National Geospatial-Intelligence Agency and held top-level clearance at the Unidentified Aerial Phenomena Task Force, entered the public eye earlier this year when he made the startling claim that the US government had long been in possession of "intact and partially intact vehicles of non-human origin". He later appeared at the subcommittee hearing on UFOs at the US House of Representatives where, citing "extensive interviews with high-level intelligence officials", he maintained that "non-human biologics" had been found...

K. I’ve kept an eye on this Israel situation for the past few days. Here’s what I’ve learned, & here are my blunt & honest thoughts: 1. Israel chose to ignore intelligence from Egyptian officials about a major attack coming from Hamas. 2. Multiple former IDF soldiers & Israeli intelligence personnel have come forward online and said there’s a zero percent chance Israel was unaware of this attack beforehand or couldn’t have prevented it.

The U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) has recently released a batch of documents and videos related to Unidentified Aerial Phenomena (UAP), also known as UFOs. The documents and videos date back to 2013 and 2014, and show several instances of UAP encounters by CBP agents over land and sea. The videos were captured by infrared cameras mounted on CBP aircraft, and show anomalous objects that appear to fly at high speeds, change direction, and perform maneuvers that defy conventional aerodynamics.

Have you experienced an aerial phenomenon? You aren’t alone. According to the National UFO Reporting Center (NUFORC), roughly 2,000 unidentified flying object (UFO) sightings have been reported in the U.S. so far this year. NUFORC is a non-governmental, nonprofit corporation that investigates UFO sightings. The center says it receives, records, corroborates and documents reports from individuals who believe they have witnessed an aerial phenomenon. Since its founding in 1974, NUFORC says it has processed over 170,000 reports, which are listed online by date and location. The center explained that guaranteed anonymity to callers is a longstanding policy of the corporation....

UFOs are all over the news. The secrets are out, and the US government is finally confirming contact with unidentifiable flying objects or UAP (Unidentified Aerial phenomena). The report also details dozens of Soviet Union encounters as well. What does this mean for the future of the human race? Check out today's insane new video that details the crazy extraterrestrial encounters people have experienced in the Soviet Union era.

The pilots of US Air Force F-35 fighters sent to intercept the mystery object over Alaska on Friday say that whatever it was had been “interfering with the sensors of their aircraft” before they shot it down. Three unidentified objects have been spotted over North America in the past 10 days. The first, a giant airship “the size of three buses” is understood to have originated in China although the US and Chinese governments disagree about its exact purpose. While the Pentagon says it was a spy balloon, China says the monster airship was a civilian craft designed to monitor...

There’s more breaking news about that “object” that was just shot down over the Yukon in Canada by USAF F-22 Raptor.According to the description by the Canadian officials, the description of the object was very similar to that of the object downed over Alaska on Friday. “We have no further details about the object at this time other than it appears to be a small, cylindrical object” pic.twitter.com/ocB4FnEVTQ— Acyn (@Acyn) February 12, 2023The official described it as “small, cylindrical,” and smaller than the Chinese spy balloon that was shot down by the U.S. military last week.It also appears to have...

Senior Pentagon officials relayed this to reporters Friday in a briefing to highlight the broad review headed by the new All-domain Anomaly Resolution Office (AARO) working with other federal agencies to review unidentified aerial phenomena incidents. Unidentified anomalous phenomena or UAP's is the new term for UAP's and has itself gone a name change as it is no longer limited to aerial phenomena. UFO enthusiasts have been waiting since Oct. 31 for a long delayed first annual update by the Director of National Intelligence to their 2020 report that could explain only one of the 144 incidents it reviewed. Moultrie...

The FBI reportedly raided the home of the owner of a popular website that tracks everything related to Area 51. This is according to a report from a lead investigative reporter of KLAS TV, an affiliate of CBS. “FBI agents came down hard on the operator of a popular website devoted to all things Area 51–its programs, lore, and legacy. More than a dozen agents served a no-knock warrant on the Rachel, NV home of Joerg Arnu, owner of http://dreamlandresort.com…” investigative reporter George Knapp wrote. Joerg Arnu is the founder of Dreamland Resort and Webmaster. According to IMDb, Joerg Arnu...

A rather peculiar moment occurred during the Congressional hearings on Unidentified Aerial Phenomenal (UAPs, aka, UFOs) Tuesday (May 17). Congressman Mike Gallagher (R-Wis) asked a question about the 1967 Malmstrom Air Force Base incident, and got a rather astonishing, shall we call it, non-reply. Scott Bray, the deputy director of Naval Intelligence, responded that he knew nothing of the event, other than that it has received some publicity outside of official channels. Of course, we cannot expect that the foremost people leading the UAP investigations, especially at this initial stage, will know everything about every reported incident going back decades....
