Despite the recent release of numerous declassified files, whistleblower David Grusch and several lawmakers claim the Pentagon knows far more about UFOs and extraterrestrial life than it has revealed.
Grusch, a veteran of the National Geospatial-Intelligence Agency (NGA) and the National Reconnaissance Office (NRO), was joined by Congresspersons Anna Paulina Luna, Tim Burchett, Eric Burlison, and Jared Moskowitz, in a press conference on Tuesday.
During the event held on the lawn by the U.S. Capitol, the group demanded that the government release files it reportedly has detailing encounters between humans and non-human alien life.
“There are serious homeland security and airspace safety issues,” said David Grusch, who spent 14 years in the Air Force before working in intelligence and testified before Congress in 2023. “For decades, unknown objects have freely operated in restricted airspace, in large metropolitan areas and critical infrastructure, and the agencies responsible for securing the homeland cannot adequately defend against it. This is a serious national security issue.”
Grusch added, “Classification exists to protect the nation. Embarrassment, hiding funds, criminal activity and basic information about scientific information in the universe is unlawful classification.”
He added that multiple government officials are aware of “several” forms of extraterrestrial life. “The topics that we’re discussing here today go beyond life in the universe,” Grusch said.
