Pentagon denies UFO cover-up as whistleblowers share shocking claims

A House hearing on Wednesday focused on unidentified aerial phenomena (UAP) featured testimonies from several witnesses who made allegations about the U.S. government’s involvement with UFOs and possible alien technologies.

Report informs via Washington Times Former Defense Department official Luis Elizondo claimed that the U.S. and its adversaries are engaged in a secret arms race involving UAP technologies. He stated that advanced technologies of unknown origin are monitoring military installations globally, and both the U.S. and its rivals possess some of these technologies.

Michael Gold, a former NASA official, acknowledged that while most UFO sightings can be explained by conventional means like drones or weather phenomena, there remains a percentage that defies explanation. The witnesses alleged that the Pentagon and intelligence agencies maintain secret UAP research programs with off-book budgets and minimal oversight.

Retired Navy Admiral Tim Gallaudet shared his experience regarding the famous “GoFast” video incident from 2015, claiming that evidence of the encounter mysteriously disappeared from his email account. He also alleged being subject to government intimidation to suppress UFO discussions.

The Pentagon has consistently denied allegations of whistleblower intimidation and the existence of UFO crash retrieval programs. Their All-domain Anomaly Resolution Office (AARO) released a 60-page study last year refuting claims about government contact with aliens and reverse-engineering of alien spacecraft.

The hearing revealed bipartisan concern about government transparency on UAP issues. Representatives from both parties, including Rep. Nancy Mace and Rep. Jared Moskowitz, expressed frustration with government stonewalling on UAP-related inquiries.
