US Congress vs. UFO/UAP/USO Secrecy: Witnesses Ready to Expose the Truth

Military Testimonies: UFOs/UAPs and USOs

Numerous military personnel, including pilots, naval officers, and intelligence officials, have come forward with detailed descriptions of their experiences with both UAPs in the skies and USOs beneath the oceans. These accounts describe objects demonstrating extraordinary speed, manoeuvrability, and capabilities that challenge current technological understanding. In some cases, these phenomena have been observed transitioning seamlessly between air and water environments, further complicating efforts to explain them.

Such testimonies have been presented in public forums, including congressional hearings like those held in 2023 and those planned for 2024. These hearings have attracted bipartisan interest as lawmakers seek to understand the potential national security implications of these sightings.

Presidential Acknowledgments: Crossing the Rubicon

The most significant development in this ongoing saga is the public acknowledgment by two former U.S. Presidents - Barack Obama and Donald Trump - of the mysterious nature of UAPs/USOs.

Barack Obama’s Statements

In 2021, former President Barack Obama confirmed that "there's footage and records of objects in the skies that we don’t know exactly what they are." He elaborated that these objects exhibited flight patterns that defied conventional explanations. Even more strikingly, it was later revealed that Obama had received a top-secret briefing on UAPs during his presidency but was not given full access to all relevant information. This suggests a level of compartmentalization within government agencies, even at the highest levels of power.

Donald Trump’s Statements

Former President Donald Trump has also spoken publicly about UAP encounters during his time in office. He mentioned personally interviewing multiple Air Force pilots who reported being followed by spherical objects during their flights. According to Trump, these objects moved at speeds far beyond what even advanced fighter jets like the F-22 Raptor could achieve. While Trump expressed some scepticism about their extraterrestrial nature, he validated the credibility of military witnesses and emphasised that these encounters were real and concerning.

These admissions from two former Commanders-in-Chief represent a watershed moment in how UAPs/USOs are discussed publicly. For decades, official denials or dismissals dominated government discourse on this topic. Now, however, discussions about UAPs/USOs have entered mainstream political discourse at the highest levels.

The November 13, 2024 Hearing: Exposing the Truth

Adding to this momentum is an upcoming House Oversight Committee hearing titled "Unidentified Anomalous Phenomena: Exposing the Truth," scheduled for November 13, 2024. This hearing could mark another pivotal moment in UAP/USO transparency.

Hearing Details

The hearing will be conducted by two subcommittees within the House Oversight Committee. It will feature four key witnesses who are expected to testify under oath about their knowledge of UAPs:

• Lou Elizondo, former head of the Advanced Aerospace Threat Identification Program (AATIP), confirmed on social media that he will testify with the aim to "expose the truth."

• Former Rear Admiral Timothy Gallaudet will bring his expertise on naval operations to discuss submerged UAP sightings.

• Journalist Michael Shellenberger will testify about Congress’s need for greater transparency.

• Michael Gold, who was formerly with NASA and is now with Redwire Corporation. Gold has been involved in some fascinating work on space policy and partnerships. He is expected to provide additional insights into government secrecy and potential reverse-engineering programs.

Congressional Accountability

Representatives Nancy Mace (R-S.C.) and Glenn Grothman (R-Wis.), who chair these committees, have emphasised their commitment to transparency. They argue that the American public deserves to understand what the government knows about UAPs and any potential risks they pose to national security.

Key Topics

The hearing is expected to cover several critical topics:

• Potential Government Programs: There will be discussions on alleged government efforts to retrieve and reverse-engineer advanced materials from non-human sources.

• Submerged UAP Sightings: Testimony may focus on underwater phenomena similar to USOs.

• Challenges with Government Secrecy: Witnesses are expected to highlight difficulties accessing UAP-related data due to restrictions imposed by intelligence agencies. One particularly controversial topic may be an alleged program called "Immaculate Constellation," which reportedly manages access to sensitive information.

Building Public Awareness

The hearing is anticipated to increase public awareness about UAPs while encouraging more whistleblowers to come forward. Journalistic investigations into these phenomena may also gain momentum as more information becomes available through official channels.

Congress’s Role Moving Forward

There is growing support for establishing a process similar to the Church Committee of the 1970s, which investigated abuses within intelligence agencies. Such a process would ensure ongoing oversight over how UAP-related information is handled by government entities moving forward.

Official Denials vs. Growing Transparency

Despite mounting evidence from military testimonies and whistleblower claims, Pentagon officials continue to assert that there is no conclusive proof linking UAPs or USOs to extraterrestrial origins. They suggest that many sightings could be attributed to natural phenomena or advanced technology from foreign adversaries.

For example, allegations by whistleblowers like former Air Force intelligence officer David Grusch - who claimed that the Pentagon was operating a secret program to retrieve and reverse-engineer UFOs - have been met with official denials. The Pentagon maintains it has no knowledge of such programs or technologies.

Conclusion: The Rubicon Has Been Crossed

With two former U.S. Presidents openly acknowledging that we do not fully understand UAPs/USOs or where they come from - and now with Congress holding hearings aimed at exposing new truths - we may indeed have crossed a Rubicon in our understanding of these phenomena. No longer confined to fringe speculation or classified briefings behind closed doors, discussions about UAPs/USOs have entered mainstream political discourse at the highest levels.

As investigations continue and more whistleblowers come forward during hearings like those scheduled for November 13th, there may be a shift toward greater transparency regarding these unexplained phenomena - a shift driven not only by military testimonies but also by unprecedented presidential admissions and growing congressional scrutiny.
