Chairwoman mace, Chairman Grothman, Ranking Member, Connolly, Ranking Member, Garcia, members of the subcommittees. Thank you for inviting my testimony. One of Congress's most important responsibilities is oversight of the executive branch in general and the military and intelligence community in particular. Unfortunately, there is a growing body of evidence that the US government is not being transparent about what it knows about unidentified anomalous phenomena, and that elements within the military and the IC are in violation of their constitutional duty to notify Congress of their operations. President Elect Donald Trump and former President Barack Obama have both said that the government has information about UAPs that it has not released current there are other explanations for UAPs than that. They represent a new form of life or non human life. Current dominant alternative theories, including those put forward by Arrow, are that UAPs are some kind of natural phenomena we don't yet understand, like ball lightning or plasma. They could also be part of some new US or foreign government weapons programs such as drones, aircraft, balloons, CGI, hoaxes, or birds, whatever UAPs are, Congress must be informed as as must the people of the United States. We have a right to know what UAPs are, no matter what they are. However, we now have existing and former US government officials who have told Congress that arrow and the Pentagon have broken the law by not revealing a significant body of information about UAPs, including military intelligence databases that have evidence of their existence as physical craft. One of those individuals is a current or former US government official acting as a UAP whistle blower. This person has written a report. This is the report that says the executive branch has been managing UAP NHI issues without congressional knowledge, oversight or authorization for some time, quite possibly decades. Furthermore, these individuals have revealed the name of an active and highly secretive DOD, unacknowledged Special Access Program, or usap. The source of that document told public me that the usap is a Strategic Intelligence Program That is part of the US military family of long standing highly sensitive programs done with various aspects of the UAP problem. The new UAP whistleblower claims that the US military and IC database includes videos and images taken using infrared, forward looking infrared, full motion video and still photography. The report that was just shared with Congress says immaculate constellation serves as a central or parent usap that consolidates observations of UAPs by both tasked and untasked collection platforms. Immaculate constellation includes high quality imagery intelligence and measurement and signature intelligence of UAPs. The whistle blower's report adds the sources of this intelligence are a blend of directed and incidental collection capacities, capabilities, position in low Earth orbit, the upper atmosphere, as well as military and civilian aviation altitudes and marine time environments. The report to Congress details in detail, various UAPs, including spheres, orbs, discs, saucers, ovals, triangles, boomerang, arrowhead and irregular organic report describes various incidents found in the human intelligence databases. One involved orbs surrounding and forcing an F 22 out of its patrol area. In another incident, the crew of a Navy aircraft carrier watched a small orange, red sphere rapidly descend from a high altitude of 100 200 yards directly above the flight deck of the CVN, or aircraft carrier. And since my reporting on this immaculate constellation last month, another source came forward who told me that they saw a roughly 13 minute long high definition, full color video of a white orb UAP coming out of the ocean, approximately 20 miles off the coast of Kuwait. It was filmed from a helicopter. Then halfway through the video, the person said the orb is joined by another orb that briefly comes into the frame from the left before rapidly moving again out of the frame. The person discovered the video on sipper, the secure Internet Protocol router network which the DoD uses to transmit classified information. A leading UAP researcher who utilized. Is the Freedom of Information Act to find out what the government knows. John Greenwald told me last year that the US government had been increasingly denying his respect his request for UAP information. He has been doing FOIA requests for 27 years and has an archive of 3 million pages. The government has for decades, denied any interest in UFOs, he told me, but the documents that he has assembled show that behind the scenes, it was a completely different story. Contrary to the hopes of many advocates of transparency, the government has been restricting more information since the leak of three UAP videos in 2017 the DoD organization, Arrow has been labeling many documents with A, b7 exemption, which Greenwald says does not make any sense. They're stating that anything arrow does is involved in law enforcement investigation which allows arrow to not release it. Greenwald says the DOD has denied the existence of a UAP and a tip related records on multiple occasions, only to acknowledge them after an appeal was filed. He added that the Naval Air Systems Command in March 2022 stated they found no additional UAP videos. It seemed strange that they had three and only those three, but other requests had been filed by the black vault, that's John Greenwald's group, to seek out more places UAPs might be hiding. Then in September 2022 the Navy admitted that the UAP related videos and photographs existed, but denied the request in full for their release, saying that the requested videos contain sensitive information that are classified and exempt from disclosure. The DoD will deny things on a Monday and then admit to it on a Friday. Said Greenwald, he said, the government can and does release videos that protect secret methods of capturing it. They fall back on a sensitive platform excuse a lot. He said, however, the on screen information can be blurred and scrubbed. The metadata can be removed. I'll show you this example here. This is a presentation from the U ATP Task Force. This is completely absurd. It's nuts. This level of censorship, of redaction on a document. It shows the redaction of how many reports they've collected for how many years. Two of the three potential explanations are blacked out. The Pentagon, the intelligence community is treating us like children. It's time for us to know the truth about this. I think that we can handle it. Thank you very much.
