(NewsNation) — UAP whistleblower Luis Elizondo is responding to allegations he was part of a government group that covered up evidence on unidentified aerial phenomena.
The claims came from NewsNation special correspondent Ross Coulthart, who recently said on his “Reality Check” podcast that many are not pleased by the news Elizondo may be tapped by the Trump administration for an official role to disclose what the government knows about UAP.
“There are people who bitterly resent and don’t think it’s a good idea that Lou be appointed to a position of power in UAP transparency,” Coulthart said, “because they think that he was part of a previous agenda that was essentially to try to control the narrative, to restrict what the public is entitled to know about the UAP disclosure.”
Elizondo used to be the director of the Advanced Aerospace Threat Identification Program, or AATIP, a Pentagon unit that studied aerial threats including UAP. He resigned in 2017 in protest of how much the government kept secret about UAP.
Speaking with NewsNation’s Chris Cuomo on Monday, Elizondo said while he respects Coulthart and has been a frequent guest on his show, his current claims are wrong.
“I find it interesting that just weeks ago, according to some on social media, I had nothing to do with the UFO program or the Pentagon or AATIP,” he said. “And now, apparently, I ran everything involving UFOs and the legacy program. So, I don’t know exactly where Ross is getting his information.”
