Rep. Gaetz makes some startlingly direct UAP related comments on a live appearance on the Benny Show:
“It’s now open source information that the CIA has a program around [UFO] craft recovery. It’s not a question anymore”
He also indicates a separate video will be forthcoming to dive into the UAP topic in more detail.
Oct 10 – NARA publishes memo requiring Federal agencies to provide releasable UAP records by Sep. 30, 2025
As per the FY24 NDAA stipulations, the National Archives and Records Administration today published a memo requiring Federal agencies to provide any releasable UAP records to the National Archives by Sept. 30, 2025.
Things to look out for in the near future:
September/October/November
- According to Senator Gillibrand – a public hearing in line with AARO’s latest report can be expected soon, saying –”I’m hoping July, and if not then September. But I’m trying to do July.” This has more recently been confirmed to be happening in November.
- Speaking with Askapol, Reps. Luna and Burchett indicated that the next UAP hearing is likely to come after the August recess. More recently, this UAP hearing has been penciled in for November 13th.
- The Sol Foundation is holding its second, 2024 symposium on November 22-23 in San Francisco
Beyond/currently unknown
- Following the UAP hearing on the 26th of July, Members of Congress have called for a select committee with subpoena authority, to “go about the task of collecting information from the Pentagon and elsewhere” on unidentified flying objects. There have been conflicting messages from various Members of Congress on whether this is likely to happen anytime soon. Note – a select subcommittee was formally requested on March 13th.
- Reps. Moskowitz, Luna, and Burchett have repeatedly stated their intent to hold field hearings to overcome stonewalling from the Pentagon and military establishment “I think we [Congress] should try to get into one of these places [housing UAP evidence]…and if they won’t let us in I think we should have a field hearing right outside the building…and the military will have to explain why that is.” – Rep. Moskowitz (D) It is currently unknown when exactly we might expect that to occur, however as of Jan 12 – Rep. Luna confirmed: “I feel confident that we have enough evidence to move forward with our first field hearing. We will be announcing details soon.“
- Several journalists have indicated that first-hand witnesses of the alleged UAP legacy programs are in the process of providing testimony/evidence to the relevant authorities (e.g. the IC IG) and/or are on the verge of making public statements in the near future (Example 1, example 2, example 3, example 4)
- David Grusch has received additional clearances through DOPSR to discuss some of his (alleged) first-hand knowledge of Legacy programs. He has mentioned he may be covering more of this information in an upcoming Op-Ed
