In an exclusive interview, Elizondo shares perspectives and personal observations in a way he has not yet done with anyone else. He gets candid and personal, sharing a side of himself I suspect he has kept closely guarded for years. At the beginning of our interview, Elizondo tells me without prompting that there's no going back from the Unidentified Anomalous Phenomena (UAP) disclosure process, which appears to have accelerated under the Trump administration. It's a process which he arguably kick-started in public. He adds: "I knew that there would come a point where there's no going back. Make no mistake about it. I realize I started this conversation for better or for worse. I started this train rolling down the tracks... https://www.sott.net/article/506697-Lue-Elizondo-Theres-No-Going-Back-on-UFO-Disclosure Thu, 04 Jun 2026 20:08:12 +0000 https://www.sott.net/article/506660-Remains-found-in-New-Mexico-national-forest-ID-d-as-those-of-Melissa-Casias-Los-Alamos-employee-who-vanished-last-year Casias, 53, had been missing for nearly a year after she didn't show up for work at Los Alamos National Laboratory. A gun was found near the remains, authorities said. Human remains found by a hiker last week in a New Mexico national forest are those of a Los Alamos National Laboratory employee who had been missing for nearly a year, authorities said. The discovery in the McGaffey Ridge area of Carson National Forest was reported Thursday, and the New Mexico Medical Investigator's Office identified the remains as those of Melissa Casias, authorities said. "Investigators also learned that a handgun was located alongside the remains," New Mexico State Police said in a statement Saturday. The Medical Investigator's Office is likely to determine the cause and manner of death, police said. https://www.sott.net/article/506660-Remains-found-in-New-Mexico-national-forest-ID-d-as-those-of-Melissa-Casias-Los-Alamos-employee-who-vanished-last-year Mon, 01 Jun 2026 22:01:34 +0000 https://www.sott.net/article/506651-Trump-the-Vatican-and-the-market-shock-Inside-the-growing-disclosure-debate Following recent reporting that White House and defense officials have sought advice on how to prepare the public for a possible announcement regarding UFOs and non-human intelligence, Liberation Times has spoken to additional sources who believe the consequences of such a moment would extend far beyond Washington. Those sources say any disclosure process would have to consider not only public reaction, but also religious institutions, financial markets, allied governments and America's strategic position in the world. The latest release of UFO files may therefore be significant not simply because of what the videos show, but because of what they may signal: a possible effort to prepare the public for a far larger announcement. In a recent Daily Mail article, investigative journalist Jeremy Corbell said officials from the White House and Department of Defense had sought his advice on communications strategy and terminology ahead of a possible announcement concerning UAP reality and... https://www.sott.net/article/506651-Trump-the-Vatican-and-the-market-shock-Inside-the-growing-disclosure-debate Mon, 01 Jun 2026 19:31:05 +0000 https://www.sott.net/article/506641-NASA-boss-reveals-unsettling-reality-behind-newly-released-UFO-files Released files include infrared footage, Apollo-era astronaut accounts and military pilot testimony from combat zones NASA Administrator Jared Isaacman said the Trump administration's newly declassified UAP files are exposing years of strange aerial sightings that government agencies failed to seriously dig into — even if the records do not point to recovered alien remains or ships. "What's being surfaced isn't crashed ships or alien bodies, but real unexplained phenomena," Isaacman told Fox News Digital in an interview Friday. The disclosures come after the Trump administration released two waves of declassified UAP files as part of a broader transparency effort directing agencies to search internal databases for decades-old reports involving unexplained aerial activity after years of public skepticism surrounding government secrecy and UFO investigations. Officials say additional file releases from agencies including the CIA could soon follow. https://www.sott.net/article/506641-NASA-boss-reveals-unsettling-reality-behind-newly-released-UFO-files Sun, 31 May 2026 23:31:09 +0000 https://www.sott.net/article/506593-Push-for-UAP-UFO-transparency-intensifies-as-members-of-Congress-and-whistleblowers-call-for-release-of-groundbreaking-conclusive-files Amid surging global interest, an unprecedented gathering of senior government officials and civilians will make a direct plea to the President to declassify specific files and for Congress to pass disclosure-related legislation As a defining moment in the escalating effort for full disclosure on UAPs, a bipartisan group of high level officials and civilians will convene on the steps of the U.S. Capitol on Tuesday, June 9 @ 1:00 pm to issue a call to action on behalf of the American people. UAP whistleblower David Grusch, a highly credentialed former intelligence officer who has testified under oath before Congress, will discuss specific UAP and non-human intelligence-related evidence he encountered in deeply classified channels. Grusch will explain why these records should now be reviewed and publicly released consistent with legitimate national security protections.

Eric Burlison's 10-page legislative correspondence, which includes dozens of production requests. The MITRE Corporation confirmed that insiders are reviewing its archives to comply with a recent production request from Rep. Eric Burlison, R-Mo., who pressed the not-for-profit organization for dozens of assets that would reveal whether it currently has or previously possessed information on unidentified anomalous phenomena and associated unexplained technologies. Dated May 22 and obtained by DefenseScoop Wednesday, the 10-page correspondence reflects concerns raised by whistleblowers alleging that the Pentagon and defense contractors are deliberately concealing sensitive UAP materials in private networks to bypass congressional and public oversight. "If any relevant material is found, we will coordinate with the federal agencies responsible for the work to determine how to best provide any assets," a MITRE spokesperson told DefenseScoop.

Gen. William Neil McCasland had a dinner meeting with US Space Force members the night before his unexplained disappearance, deepening concerns over experts tied to sensitive programs. McCasland, central to advanced aerospace and nuclear research, walked out of his Albuquerque home on February 27, 2026, leaving behind his phone, prescription glasses, and wearable tracking devices. He took his wallet, a .38-caliber revolver with holster, and a red backpack. Despite extensive searches in the rugged Sandia Mountains foothills with FBI assistance, no trace has been found, and a Silver Alert remains active. The newly surfaced video obtained by the Law&Crime Network captures officers interviewing a witness who dined with McCasland the night prior. The woman, connected through the Kirtland Partnership nonprofit, described a dinner meeting involving McCasland and US Space Force members around 6pm in Albuquerque. https://www.sott.net/article/506567-UFO-linked-Air-Force-general-met-shadowy-Pentagon-unit-hours-before-vanishing Wed, 27 May 2026 21:04:09 +0000 https://www.sott.net/article/506566-Latest-UFO-video-drop-solicits-baffled-explanations-ranging-from-angels-and-demons-to-jetpacks-and-balloons Bizarre videos from President Trump's latest batch of UFO disclosure files led to a host of speculation about the phenomenon's origins — with some insisting they're proof of biblical legends, while others dismissed them as little more than balloons or lens flares. Comments flooded social media comparing the wacky videos to angels and demons after they were released Friday, and some online posters claimed they were winged creatures and fiery wheels that appeared in the likes of the Book of Ezekiel. Among the most intriguing videos was one filmed over a body of water in June 2020, which captured a shapeshifting blob apparently hovering near a US military installation. https://www.sott.net/article/506566-Latest-UFO-video-drop-solicits-baffled-explanations-ranging-from-angels-and-demons-to-jetpacks-and-balloons Wed, 27 May 2026 20:42:50 +0000 https://www.sott.net/article/506548-CIA-accused-of-searching-Ancestry-and-23andMe-data-bases-to-hunt-down-alien-bloodlines-in-millions-of-DNA-tests The CIA has been accused of gaining secret access to the DNA information of millions of people as the intelligence agency allegedly searches for alien life on Earth. Jason Reza Jorjani, a philosophy PhD and science fiction writer, recently claimed that he spoke with a retired US Army sergeant who served as a 'psychic spy' and knew of the government's secret program to hunt down individuals with extraterrestrial DNA. Jorjani said on the American Alchemy podcast that the CIA, the nation's premier foreign intelligence agency, has a backdoor program that allows it to search through genetic testing companies such as 23andMe and Ancestry.com. According to the author, the purpose is to look for individuals who have DNA ancestry tied to a race of aliens known as the Nordics, who allegedly look like extremely tall humans from Scandinavia, with blond hair, blue eyes and fair skin. https://www.sott.net/article/506548-CIA-accused-of-searching-Ancestry-and-23andMe-data-bases-to-hunt-down-alien-bloodlines-in-millions-of-DNA-tests Tue, 26 May 2026 19:34:24 +0000 https://www.sott.net/article/506501-Joe-Rogan-Discusses-Aliens-Abducting-Americans-in-National-Parks Joe Rogan has revisited theories about mysterious disappearances in U.S. national parks — including the possibility of alien abductions — during a wide-ranging conversation about unsolved missing persons cases and UFO encounters. During an episode of The Joe Rogan Experience, author and investigator David Paulides claimed the National Park Service had blocked some of his efforts to obtain records tied to disappearances in remote wilderness areas. Paulides also discussed several cases he believes remain unexplained — including the disappearance of 14-year-old Stacy Arras in Yosemite National Park more than four decades ago. https://www.sott.net/article/506501-Joe-Rogan-Discusses-Aliens-Abducting-Americans-in-National-Parks Sun, 24 May 2026 17:17:31 +0000 https://www.sott.net/article/506490-Highlights-From-2nd-Batch-Of-Declassified-UFO-Files-Include-A-UAP-Shootdown The Pentagon's second batch of declassified UFO files released on May 22 includes videos such as Unidentified Anomalous Phenomena (UAP) being shot down over the Great Lakes and audio of astronauts witnessing a series of unexplained phenomena. ​Dozens of documents were cleared for release on Friday, adding to the previous document dump on May 8, which revealed that Apollo 11 astronauts reported seeing a "sizable" object near the moon. ​The Epoch Times' Jacki Thrapp offers the following highlights from a partial review of the newly released files. https://www.sott.net/article/506490-Highlights-From-2nd-Batch-Of-Declassified-UFO-Files-Include-A-UAP-Shootdown Sat, 23 May 2026 17:49:01 +0000 https://www.sott.net/article/506441-World-shaking-UFO-files-release-imminent-as-insider-Jeremy-Corbell-hints-at-much-bigger-secrets-in-next-disclosure-drop Americans are waiting with bated breath for the next wave of UFO files after officials promised the release will be 'very soon.' Chief Pentagon spokesman Sean Parnell announced Monday on X that the materials are currently 'actively being processed' for publication. While details about the imminent disclosure dump remain secret, investigative journalist Jeremy Corbell told the Daily Mail it could include 46 classified UFO videos requested by lawmakers earlier this year. 'There is something much bigger coming,' he said. Corbell claimed he personally provided officials with access to the videos via what he described as classified 'intel links' linked to hidden government servers, after unknown sources leaked the clips to him. 'Not just file names. If you put the underscores in, they're linked,' Corbell said, claiming the material led directly to classified systems that 'you and I can't access.' https://www.sott.net/article/506441-World-shaking-UFO-files-release-imminent-as-insider-Jeremy-Corbell-hints-at-much-bigger-secrets-in-next-disclosure-drop Thu, 21 May 2026 00:41:18 +0000 https://www.sott.net/article/506401-Eight-never-before-seen-UFO-videos-at-center-of-explosive-disclosure-battle-detailed-by-insider A battle over UFO transparency has erupted in Washington as 'certain intelligence agencies' have been accused of withholding evidence from the American public. Investigative journalist Jeremy Corbell told the Daily Mail there is a 'bottleneck' inside US Central Command where footage of unidentified flying objects is being blocked from reaching officials seeking access to it. Corbell said some members of Congress are now 'dead set' on forcing the release of the material 'come hell or high water,' with some lawmakers prepared to escalate the fight if agencies continue withholding records. The growing disclosure battle has now centered on 46 classified military UFO videos that lawmakers recently demanded from the Department of War last month, which have yet to be released. Eight of those highly anticipated clips appear in Corbell's documentary Sleeping Dog, where viewers are shown brief glimpses of what he described as unresolved UFO encounters collected by the US military. https://www.sott.net/article/506401-Eight-never-before-seen-UFO-videos-at-center-of-explosive-disclosure-battle-detailed-by-insider Tue, 19 May 2026 15:33:24 +0000 https://www.sott.net/article/506378-Ex-government-researcher-claims-4-alien-species-have-been-pulled-from-crashed-UFOs The US has recovered four distinct species of extraterrestrial life from crashed UFOs, a former CIA-funded government researcher sensationally claimed this week. Dr. Hal Puthoff, former Advanced Aerospace Weapon System Applications Program advisor and CIA-funded researcher, made the claim alongside Age of Disclosure director Dan Farrah on Steve Bartlett's The Diary of a CEO podcast on Thursday. "People who have been involved in recoveries have said there are at least four types. Four separate types," the 89-year-old said. "Now I have not had direct access to that but I believe the people who I talked to — four separate types of life." The Stanford-trained quantum physicist did not detail the supposed alien species — but his longtime collaborator and former AAWSAP colleague Dr. Eric Davis claimed last year that Grays, Nordics, Insectoids, and Reptilians are the names of the biological lifeforms pulled from the wreckage of downed or crashed UFOs. https://www.sott.net/article/506378-Ex-government-researcher-claims-4-alien-species-have-been-pulled-from-crashed-UFOs Sun, 17 May 2026 21:31:09 +0000 https://www.sott.net/article/506351-Retired-Navy-admiral-makes-bombshell-claim-about-UFOs-and-non-human-intelligence-controlling-them Are UFOs controlled by non-human entities? There are few topics in America that generate more attention and interest than UFOs/UAPs. One of the big reasons why is that there's no clear answer for what is going on up in the sky or down in the ocean. There are countless videos and stories about unexplainable sightings, but very few concrete answers. Well, prepare for things to get amped up. Retired Navy admiral alleges UFOs might have 'non-human' control. Retired Rear Admiral Tim Gallaudet is a leading voice in America when it comes to the UAP phenomenon, and he thinks whatever is going on...might not have a human explanation! https://www.sott.net/article/506351-Retired-Navy-admiral-makes-bombshell-claim-about-UFOs-and-non-human-intelligence-controlling-them Sat, 16 May 2026 14:46:50 +0000 https://www.sott.net/article/506350-Missing-scientists-shattered-car-discovered-in-remote-New-Mexico-mountains The mysterious disappearance of a scientist has been thrust back into the spotlight as cases involving missing and dead researchers tied to America's nuclear, aerospace and defense sectors continue to mount. Ingrid Coleen Lane, 37, vanished in October 2023 after leaving a meditation retreat in the remote mountains of New Mexico, where investigators later discovered her smashed Subaru abandoned near a volcanic hiking trail with no trace of where she went. Inside the vehicle, authorities reportedly found three laptops, an unactivated burner phone and Lane's keys still sitting in the ignition, while a massive boulder had mysteriously shattered the rear hatch window. Search dogs reportedly failed to locate any scent trail leading away from the scene despite forensic evidence indicating Lane had been near or outside the vehicle. https://www.sott.net/article/506350-Missing-scientists-shattered-car-discovered-in-remote-New-Mexico-mountains Sat, 16 May 2026 13:47:00 +0000 https://www.sott.net/article/506340-Lawmaker-requests-UFO-talk-from-private-contractor As lawmakers continue to pursue transparency regarding alleged secret UFO programs operated by the Pentagon, one member of Congress is now pursuing private contractors. Rep. Eric Burlison, R-Mo., announced on social media he has sent a letter to MIT Lincoln Labs regarding a "flying saucer talk" from 1952. "I sent a letter to MIT Lincoln Labs asking for a classified 1952 briefing video referenced as a 'flying saucer talk.' Their attorneys wrote back fast. They'll comply within 30 days. Congressional letters carry weight. We're going to keep sending them," he said. Whistleblower David Grusch, whose testimony regarding alleged secret UFO-retrieval programs kicked off a series of congressional hearings, has stated private contractors are being used to make it more difficult for lawmakers to obtain information on certain programs. https://www.sott.net/article/506340-Lawmaker-requests-UFO-talk-from-private-contractor Fri, 15 May 2026 21:32:46 +0000 https://www.sott.net/article/506330-Alternate-versions-of-you-from-parallel-universes-may-be-controlling-your-life-new-theory-claims A bizarre new theory suggests there may be countless alternate versions of your life playing out at the same time across parallel universes. According to Oxford physicist Vlatko Vedral, every tiny event in the universe could create a different version of reality, sending another 'you' down a completely separate life path. In one reality, you took a different job. In another, you married someone else. Somewhere else, you moved across the country or made one small choice that changed your entire future. The unsettling idea comes from a real branch of quantum physics known as the Many-Worlds interpretation, which suggests reality may constantly split into parallel worlds instead of following one fixed timeline. Vedral recently argued in Popular Mechanics that humans do not magically create reality simply by observing it, a belief that has spread online through manifestation culture and misunderstood interpretations of quantum physics. Instead, reality changes naturally through... https://www.sott.net/article/506330-Alternate-versions-of-you-from-parallel-universes-may-be-controlling-your-life-new-theory-claims Fri, 15 May 2026 19:22:55 +0000 https://www.sott.net/article/506329-Thousands-of-mysterious-underwater-UFOs-spotted-off-US-shores-report A popular UFO-reporting app has been making waves after reportedly recording tens of thousands of mysterious underwater objects up and down the United States' coastlines, raising eyebrows and leaving experts with more questions than answers regarding their origin. Enigma, a non-partisan organization that boasts its "largest queryable historical sighting database for global UFO sightings," has recorded roughly 30,000 UFO sightings since its launch in 2022, according to the company's website. However, users have turned their attention away from the skies in the hunt for proof that life may exist elsewhere. Since August, Enigma has documented more than 9,000 sightings of mysterious objects within 10 miles of United States shorelines or other major bodies of water, Marine Technology News reported. https://www.sott.net/article/506329-Thousands-of-mysterious-underwater-UFOs-spotted-off-US-shores-report Fri, 15 May 2026 19:21:49 +0000 https://www.sott.net/article/506316-Trump-admin-releases-highly-anticipated-files-documenting-UFOs-extraterrestrial-life The Trump administration on Friday released a batch of "never-before-seen" files and videos on Unidentified Anomalous Phenomenon (UAP) as part of an effort to increase transparency on government knowledge of extraterrestrial phenomena. "The latest UAP videos, photos, and original source documents from across the entire United States government are all in one place - no clearance required. While past administrations sought to discredit or dissuade the American people, President Trump is focused on providing maximum transparency to the public, who can ultimately make up their own minds about the information contained in these files," the White House said in a statement to Fox News. The release is a function of President Donald Trump's Presidential Unsealing and Reporting System for UAP Encounters (PURSUE) program.

I think I spoke too soon. There's probably no end to the fun a person can have with AI even if the topics discussed in that little series were rather serious and possibly depression inducing. Today, I'm going to make it worse. If you think those subjects were depressing, hold my beer! There's a little backstory to the fun we are going to have with AI today. A month or more ago I noticed that there was a significant uptick in the number of people searching my name and work on google.

Friday was a big day for aliens. The night before, the US Department of War (I think I liked it as Defense better) released a highly anticipated trove of documents related to UFOs and extraterrestrials. The "disclosure" came in the wake of President Trump reacting to former President Obama making waves with a misinterpreted comment about "aliens being real" So the documents get released and I get up early and starting pouring through them. I click. I read. I watch videos. I click again. And then I realize... There's nothing here. This highly touted disclosure amounts to just an endless parade of fuzzy images (or videos) and unverifiable personal testimony. Some of the documents go back 70 years but it's all basically the same. Taken as a whole, it's the kind of thing we've seen for decades: fuzzy images; unverifiable personal testimony; no hard evidence. There's even a laughable image of flashing "orb' in a wheat field made by photoshopping a bad... https://www.sott.net/article/506287-The-End-of-UFOs Wed, 13 May 2026 18:21:45 +0000 https://www.sott.net/article/506218-What-NASAs-Apollo-astronauts-actually-photographed-and-why-it-still-matters A look at newly surfaced lunar surface images and the declassified transcripts that go with them. The word "UFO" tends to trigger one of two responses: credulous excitement or immediate eye-rolling. But when the source material is NASA mission photography and declassified crew debriefing documents — some originally stamped Confidential — it becomes harder to dismiss out of hand. A set of recently surfaced images from the Apollo 12 (1969) and Apollo 17 (1972) lunar surface missions has been circulating alongside newly released government UAP files. The photographs show the grey lunar terrain, astronaut shadows stretching across the regolith, and — annotated with yellow zoom boxes — small, anomalous luminous objects in the black sky above the lunar horizon. The objects vary across the frames: a vertical blue streak in one, a tight cluster of white-blue points in another, a solitary bright orb in a third, and in one striking image, what appears to be a larger rectangular luminous... https://www.sott.net/article/506218-What-NASAs-Apollo-astronauts-actually-photographed-and-why-it-still-matters Sun, 10 May 2026 17:37:05 +0000 https://www.sott.net/article/506216-These-UFO-files-were-just-the-start-Government-insiders-reveal-holy-crap-moment-coming-next-and-their-bombshell-extraterrestrial-conclusive-proof The truth has always been out there. Americans are now closer than ever before to grasping it. On Friday, the Department of War, acting under President Donald Trump's direction, released more than 150 government files - many previously classified and some dating back 80 years - revealing information about unidentified flying objects and other unexplained phenomena. One NASA image from the Apollo 17 moon mission in 1972 appears to show three lights arranged in a triangular formation above the lunar terrain. A transcript of the astronauts' communications reveals one crew member describing the light as 'very bright particles or fragments,' another compared the scene to 'the Fourth of July'. It's only the beginning. https://www.sott.net/article/506216-These-UFO-files-were-just-the-start-Government-insiders-reveal-holy-crap-moment-coming-next-and-their-bombshell-extraterrestrial-conclusive-proof Sun, 10 May 2026 17:16:35 +0000 https://www.sott.net/article/506203-FBI-files-reveal-reports-of-four-foot-tall-beings-emerging-from-UFOs Newly released FBI files have revealed shocking details of mysterious four-foot-tall crewmen exiting a UFO in the 1960s. The documents, released Friday as part of the Trump administration's UFO disclosure, detailed how investigators reviewed reports that 1965 marked 'the year of the greatest number of UFO sightings' observed by multiple witnesses across the world. The FBI summarized reports of metallic craft capable of hovering silently, reaching 'fantastic speeds' and interfering with electromagnetic equipment. The files also referenced that wreckage from crashed saucers had been recovered on multiple occasions, including materials described as unknown metals containing microscopic spheres. But one of the most startling sections involved testimonies of encounters with apparent occupants of the craft. 'A few witnesses have reported seeing crewmen who had landed from the objects,' the document stated, describing the beings as 'three and a half to four feet tall, wearing what appear... https://www.sott.net/article/506203-FBI-files-reveal-reports-of-four-foot-tall-beings-emerging-from-UFOs Sat, 09 May 2026 18:30:27 +0000 https://www.sott.net/article/506201-New-UFO-declassification-website-launched-following-presidential-announcement The new webpage, which is hosted under the name "war.gov/UFO", represents a notable return to a term that had been considered for replacement by UAP (Unidentified Anomalous Phenomena) in recent years. It will serve as a portal to access newly released documents and videos, and bears the official title of "Presidential Unsealing and Reporting System for UAP Encounters (PURSUE)". As stated on the main page: the Department of War (DOW), with support from the Office of the Director of National Intelligence (ODNI), is overseeing government wide efforts to expeditiously find, review, identify, declassify and publicly release unresolved UAP-related records and historical documents in the federal government's possession. It is interesting to consider how this differs from the current initiative by the National Archives. They have already established a specific page under law to address the disclosure of documents related to UFOs. This is an unprecedented, historic undertaking that requires... https://www.sott.net/article/506201-New-UFO-declassification-website-launched-following-presidential-announcement Sat, 09 May 2026 17:33:48 +0000 https://www.sott.net/article/506168-One-of-the-11-disappeared-scientists-claimed-she-was-hit-with-Pentagons-top-secret-weapon-after-revealing-UFO-theory The Pentagon has announced that they employ specialized energy weapons for defense, seemingly vindicating researchers who'd long warned about the tech. The Department of War's Chief Technology Officer Emil Michael announced this development in an X post fittingly — or perhaps eerily — posted on May the 4th, more popularly known as National Star Wars Day.

Dubbed directed energy weapons or DEWs, these advanced instruments of war use focused rays to disable electronic weapons such as drones and incapacitate — or even kill — enemy soldiers.

Ohioans are battening down the hatches as locals fear a not-so-friendly neighborhood Sasquatch is making a comeback after a half-century of silence — with a new brood in tow. Northeast Ohio, the gloomiest corner of the Buckeye State, has been ripe with Bigfoot sightings since March. Some residents suspect a whole family of Sasquatches is moving into the region after a particularly brutal winter, Fox 8 reported. Many anonymous witnesses shared pictures of hulking footprints scattered primarily between Akron and Youngstown (about 50 miles apart) in Portage County. Most of the prints are an estimated 17 inches long — which can only match a creature that is 7 feet tall or more. https://www.sott.net/article/506106-Fears-of-mysterious-beast-spread-in-Ohio-after-locals-record-eerie-howls-enormous-footprints-I-know-what-I-saw Mon, 04 May 2026 15:23:16 +0000 https://www.sott.net/article/506052-The-UFO-Question-Demons-and-High-Strangeness Demons Out! When I was a young boy, my family often enjoyed watching and laughing at televangelists — especially Ernest Angley, who would regularly cast out demons for us on TV. Suffice to say, demons were considered a humorous component to my slight evangelical upbringing, not something to be considered seriously. Chevy Chase captured the zaniness perfectly in Fletch Lives-The Preacher J.D. Vance-Aliens are Demons Tucker, too Turns out, lots of quite well-known people, and several commenters on The Unz Review believe these UFOs are demons. I would like to take a stab at seriously looking at this possibility. There is a version of the UAP problem that is safe to discuss in polite company. It involves military pilots seeing objects that outperform known aerospace technology, radar systems confirming what the pilots saw, and a government that has spent decades lying about its level of interest in the subject.

The Pentagon has recently said it is reviewing and consolidating related records before any public release, citing security concerns. Trump signed an executive order in February instructing the Department of War to disclose "any and all information" related to UFOs and unidentified aerial phenomena (UAP). "I think we're going to be releasing as much as we can in the near future... some of it is going to be very interesting to people," Trump told reporters during a White House briefing late Wednesday, adding that public interest in the topic had built up "for a long time." "I interviewed some pilots - very solid people.

Reporter Jeremy Corbell claims in the upcoming flick "Sleeping Dog" that he received the valuable classified documents from the son of the deceased ex-cybersecurity chief at the highly secretive New Mexico lab. "Throughout my work as a journalist, I have become a central clearinghouse for sensitive [Unidentified Aerial Phenomena] material in my reporting," Corbell said to The Post. https://www.sott.net/article/505949-Trove-of-leaked-documents-prove-US-lab-where-missing-scientists-worked-was-studying-UFOs-documentary-claims Sun, 26 Apr 2026 16:14:02 +0000 https://www.sott.net/article/505947-Would-be-UFO-whistleblower-died-of-accidental-drug-overdose-after-agreeing-to-testify-to-Congress An Air Force veteran who agreed to testify before Congress about secret government UFO programs died just months before the hearings of an accidental drug overdose, The Post has learned. Matthew James Sullivan, 39, died at his home in Falls Church, Va., on May 12, 2024 from a lethal mix of alcohol, alprazolam, cyclobenzaprine and imipramine, according to the Northern District Office of the Chief Medical Examiner. Alprazolam is generic Xanax, an anti-anxiety medication; cyclobenzaprine is a powerful prescription muscle relaxant that works on the central nervous system; imipramine is a drug for children used to treat anxiety and bedwetting. The mysterious death is of "grave concern" to Rep. Eric Burlison (R-Mo.), who referred the matter for investigation to the FBI due to "implications for national security," according to a letter obtained by The Post. https://www.sott.net/article/505947-Would-be-UFO-whistleblower-died-of-accidental-drug-overdose-after-agreeing-to-testify-to-Congress Sun, 26 Apr 2026 13:22:47 +0000 https://www.sott.net/article/505933-Famed-UFO-researcher-dies-unexpectedly-in-US Ruled a suicide, David Wilcock's demise comes amid a probe into a string of suspicious disappearances and passings of US space scientists. David Wilcock, a self-styled American UFO researcher and a prominent paranormal content creator and author, has been found dead in what has been ruled a suicide. The incident happened days after US President Donald Trump ordered an investigation into a string of mysterious deaths and disappearances of nearly a dozen American scientists starting in 2023. The researchers had access to some of the nation's most closely guarded nuclear and space secrets. In a statement on Monday, the Boulder County Sheriff's Office reported that at approximately 10:44 AM, a person called 911. The dispatcher suspected that the caller "was experiencing a mental health crisis." When deputies reached the residence northeast of the town of Nederland, they encountered an armed man, who "used the weapon on himself" within minutes of their arrival, the statement said.

Sullivan, two weeks after being asked to testify regarding UAP, has rekindled the already infamous investigation into the disappearance of high profile figures. As previously reported by Sentinel News, the disappearance of scientists working on space technologies has forced President Trump to take action. Is it a statistical illusion or a conspiracy? On August 28th, 2025, 48-year old Steven Garcia left his house in Albuquerque, New Mexico with a gun, and never returned. Mr Garcia was a government contractor with top security clearance at Kansas City National security campus, a major US Nuclear weapons facility with a covert role in US national defense. Like General McCasland, Garcia was working at a very high-level, overseeing all the assets, reportedly worth in the hundreds of millions of dollars.

"I hope it's random, but we're going to know in the next week and a half," he told reporters, adding that "I just left a meeting on that subject." The reports, he added, are serious, because "some of them were very important people, and we're going to look at it over the next short period." The president provided an update a day after White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt told reporters that the Trump administration is investigating. A reporter asked Leavitt about 10 scientists who died or disappeared over the past several years, with some of them having access to nuclear or aerospace material. "I haven't spoken to our relevant agencies about it. I will certainly do that, and we'll get you an answer. If true, of course, that's definitely something I think this government and administration would deem worth looking into." https://www.sott.net/article/505837-Trump-says-admin-investigating-deaths-disappearances-of-US-scientists Mon, 20 Apr 2026 18:12:08 +0000 https://www.sott.net/article/505818-Near-mid-air-collision-between-an-airliner-and-a-UAP On May 8, 2021, a Boeing 737 crew departing from Houston Hobby Airport encountered an unidentified object during initial climb. The incident, documented in a report by the nonprofit organization Americans for Safe Aerospace, raises questions about flight safety. As the aircraft climbed past 14,000 feet (4,260 m), air traffic control urgently ordered it to level off at 15,000 feet (4,572 m), reporting unknown traffic in their sector ahead, two nautical miles (approximately 4 km) away, rapidly approaching. The controller noted that this radar echo had "already appeared intermittently throughout the day." A few seconds later, both pilots visually identified an object that was described as an oblong spheroid lacking wings, windows, and navigation lights. They described its surface as metallic and resembling molten mercury. It had a translucent appearance, shifting shape, and seemed to pulsate and vibrate. The co-pilot estimated that the object was about the size of a Boeing 737.... https://www.sott.net/article/505818-Near-mid-air-collision-between-an-airliner-and-a-UAP Sun, 19 Apr 2026 17:14:49 +0000 https://www.sott.net/article/505810-Former-top-nuclear-official-says-feds-likely-to-uncover-crazy-stuff-about-11-missing-or-dead-scientists Federal investigators digging into the disappearances and deaths of 11 scientists and researchers are likely to find "crazy stuff" about their respective cases — but not a connection between them, a former top US nuclear official told The Post. Frank Rose, who served as the No. 2 at the agency's National Nuclear Security Administration until April 2024, said that having been "the deputy there for several years," nothing surprises him anymore.

US President Donald Trump has ordered an investigation into the mysterious deaths and disappearances of nearly a dozen American scientists with access to some of the nation's most closely guarded nuclear and space secrets. The cases have fueled online speculation ranging from foreign espionage to a government cover-up of classified UFO research. Speaking to reporters on Thursday, Trump stated: "I just came out of a meeting on this," noting that "It's pretty serious stuff. I hope it's random, but we're going to know in the next week and a half. Some of them were very important people, and we're going to look at it over the next short period."

The documents, described as containing internal memos, scientific reports and images, were allegedly discovered among the belongings of the former head of cybersecurity at Los Alamos National Laboratory (LANL). The lab, located in northern New Mexico, approximately 35 miles northwest of Santa Fe, is linked to UFO lore primarily through its proximity to New Mexico's 'Nuclear Triangle' and reported sightings of 'green fireballs' near atomic sites in the late 1940s. https://www.sott.net/article/505800-Dead-Los-Alamos-chiefs-secret-UFO-files-revealed-in-stunning-drop-100-proof Sat, 18 Apr 2026 15:40:31 +0000 https://www.sott.net/article/505781-UFO-cluster-spotted-over-mysterious-base-tied-to-missing-Air-Force-scientist A massive cluster of unknown flying objects was spotted near Wright-Patterson Air Force Base, a military installation long rumored to be linked to UFO activity. Witnesses near the Ohio base captured the craft on April 8, showing a silent triangle of glowing lights moving in perfect formation before splitting apart mid-flight. The lights appeared to drift slowly downward, flickering, pulsing and changing brightness individually as they hovered in the night sky. Reports described the sighting as having 'no sound, no standard navigation lights, movement unlike any known aircraft, drone swarm or satellite.' https://www.sott.net/article/505781-UFO-cluster-spotted-over-mysterious-base-tied-to-missing-Air-Force-scientist Fri, 17 Apr 2026 17:30:02 +0000 https://www.sott.net/article/505771-Disturbing-death-of-UFO-linked-anti-gravity-scientist-revealed-as-dark-pattern-grows-to-ELEVEN A scientist experimenting with anti-gravity tech was found dead at 34 after warning that her life could be in danger, marking another mysterious case of deaths and disappearances in recent years. Amy Eskridge was just 34 years old when she allegedly died from a self-inflicted gunshot to the head in Huntsville, Alabama on June 11, 2022. However, neither the police nor the medical examiners have publicly released any details of an investigation ever taking place. Before her death, she was openly researching and trying to develop anti-gravity technology, a way to control or cancel out gravity, which could revolutionize space travel and energy production. Anti-gravity propulsion has also been widely discussed by UFO researchers, who have claimed this advanced technology is what allows alien spacecraft to achieve impossible speeds. https://www.sott.net/article/505771-Disturbing-death-of-UFO-linked-anti-gravity-scientist-revealed-as-dark-pattern-grows-to-ELEVEN Thu, 16 Apr 2026 21:59:26 +0000 https://www.sott.net/article/505770-Missing-nuclear-official-becomes-TENTH-person-tied-to-dark-pattern-surrounding-US-secrets Another person with links to America's nuclear secrets has gone missing as the disturbing list of deaths and disappearances in recent years continues to grow. Steven Garcia, 48, vanished without a trace on August 28, 2025. He was last seen leaving his Albuquerque, New Mexico home on foot, carrying only a handgun. An anonymous source told the Daily Mail that Garcia was a government contractor working for the Kansas City National Security Campus (KCNSC), a major facility in Albuquerque that plays a key behind-the-scenes role in America's national defense. Specifically, KCNSC manufactures more than 80 percent of all the non-nuclear components that go into building the military's nuclear weapons. https://www.sott.net/article/505770-Missing-nuclear-official-becomes-TENTH-person-tied-to-dark-pattern-surrounding-US-secrets Thu, 16 Apr 2026 21:53:55 +0000 https://www.sott.net/article/505747-Rep-Luna-accuses-Pentagon-of-cover-up-after-failing-to-release-UFO-videos-by-deadline The US Pentagon has been slammed for missing a strict deadline to release Unidentified Anomalous Phenomena (UAP) videos, with critics calling it a 'cover-up.' Republican Rep. Anna Paulina Luna penned a letter to the US Secretary of Defense on April 1, ordering Pete Hegseth to deliver 46 specific clips no later than April 14, 2026. Lawmakers said the videos could reveal patterns of activity near sensitive military sites and help determine whether the objects pose a potential national security threat. The requested footage includes dozens of military-recorded encounters showing spherical, cigar-shaped and Tic Tac-like objects spotted over war zones, oceans and sensitive airspace around the world. Some clips reportedly captured UAP formations near Iran and Syria, incidents near US bases and airports and even a 2023 shootdown over Lake Huron. https://www.sott.net/article/505747-Rep-Luna-accuses-Pentagon-of-cover-up-after-failing-to-release-UFO-videos-by-deadline Wed, 15 Apr 2026 21:29:33 +0000 https://www.sott.net/article/505705-Watch-Rogan-Encapsulates-Why-Missing-Scientists-Are-No-Conspiracy-Theory In his latest episode, podcaster Joe Rogan lays out the massive financial motive behind the silencing of experts on zero-point energy and plasma tech, while his guest declares an apocalyptic convergence of UFO secrets, AI, and global chaos. Rogan encourages listeners to confront a pattern the establishment would rather bury: scientists with access to game-changing space, nuclear, and advanced energy secrets are dying or vanishing at an alarming rate. "People have to understand this missing scientist thing. It sounds a little conspiratorial. It sounds a little silly, a little tinfoil hatty," Rogan explained, clarifying "Until you start thinking about the amount of money that would be lost if a breakthrough tech came around that revolutionized the way they distribute energy." https://www.sott.net/article/505705-Watch-Rogan-Encapsulates-Why-Missing-Scientists-Are-No-Conspiracy-Theory Mon, 13 Apr 2026 17:04:24 +0000 https://www.sott.net/article/505680-Rep-Tim-Burchett-says-UFO-briefings-are-set-to-reveal-names-dates-people-and-locations Congressman hints Trump will force disclosure of secrets experts may have died protecting1 Rep. Tim Burchett (R-TN) says he is looking forward to what he has seen in classified UFO briefings be made public next week. In a clip that's ripping across X, Stephen A. Smith asked point-blank: "You've said you've seen UFO briefings that would, quote, set the earth on fire, end quote. And you also said publicly, you're not su*cidal. That's a serious statement. What exactly are you being told that the American people aren't allowed to hear, sir, about UFOs?" Burchett responded: "I've been briefed and seen pictures and talked enough...

The documents point to a spate of activity around critical infrastructure between September 2022 and February 2023. Among the most striking cases is an incident at the Susquehanna Steam Electric Station in Pennsylvania - a nuclear plant - where a triangular object appearing to carry a large spotlight was reported within the site's airspace and perimeter for more than two hours. The material, provided by the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) under the Freedom of Information Act, relates to records the NRC sent to the Pentagon's dedicated Unidentified Anomalous Phenomena office, the All-domain Anomaly Resolution Office, or AARO, between 1 January 2020 and 24 November 2025.

Rep. Anna Paulina Luna (R-Fla.) requested the long list of explosively titled files on Wednesday, which include 45 previously unreleased military clips. The presence of Unidentified Aerial Phenomena "in and around the sensitive airspaces of US military installations poses a threat to the security of the armed forces and their readiness," according to the April 1 letter addressed to Secretary Pete Hegseth. https://www.sott.net/article/505560-Congress-demands-Dept-of-War-release-46-secret-UFO-videos-You-re-gonna-see-some-weird-f-kingst Sun, 05 Apr 2026 15:02:53 +0000 https://www.sott.net/article/505524-GOP-Rep-Says-America-Would-Become-Unglued-If-Alien-Files-Get-Released Rep.

Speaking with Newsmax's Rob Finnerty on Wednesday, the GOP lawmaker said that the public would be "up at night worrying" if they knew what he knows about extraterrestrials. "I've been briefed by just about every alphabet agency there is, and I'll just tell you this, if they would release the things that I've seen, you would stay up at — you'd be up at night worrying about or — thinking about this stuff," Burchett said.

NASA scientist Frank Maiwald reportedly died on July 4, 2024 in Los Angeles at the age of 61, but the cause of death has never been made public and officials confirmed that an autopsy was never performed. Maiwald had been a prominent researcher at the space agency's Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL) since 1999 and worked on multiple projects tied to advanced satellite technology that could scan Earth and other planets. In June 2023, just 13 months before his death, he was the lead researcher on a breakthrough that could help future space missions detect clear signs of life on other worlds, including Jupiter's moon Europa, Saturn's moon Enceladus, or the dwarf planet Ceres. https://www.sott.net/article/505504-Mystery-of-scientists-dead-or-missing-rises-to-EIGHT-as-two-more-men-tied-to-Americas-most-coveted-secrets-join-the-list Thu, 02 Apr 2026 15:23:57 +0000 https://www.sott.net/article/505409-Another-official-tied-to-Americas-scientific-secrets-vanishes-web-linking-six-mysterious-deaths-and-disappearances The 53-year-old's belongings — including her car, purse, and phones — were found inside her home. The case of a New Mexico mother who vanished without a trace last year has now been connected to the mysterious deaths and disappearances of five other key scientists and defense officials throughout the US. Melissa Casias has not been seen since June 26, 2025, when her family said she uncharacteristically decided to work from home, but was last spotted miles from their house walking alone without her wallet, phone or keys. Casias, 54, was an administrative assistant at Los Alamos National Laboratory (LANL), a facility founded by the famed Manhattan Project during World War II. It has been tied to nuclear weapons research ever since. Her disappearance takes the number of people from the scientific community potentially holding highly sensitive secrets who have gone missing or died since June 2025 to six. https://www.sott.net/article/505409-Another-official-tied-to-Americas-scientific-secrets-vanishes-web-linking-six-mysterious-deaths-and-disappearances Sat, 28 Mar 2026 21:01:33 +0000
