Intel Official Turned UFO Whistleblower Claims the U.S. Possesses Craft of Non-Human Origin - Problems With The Story

Who cares about investigative fact-checking when you can get loads of clicks!

Over the past 5 and a half years the subject of UFOs and UFO Disclosure has gone mainstream, beginning with the New York Times opening the can of worms with their “Secret UFO Program” stories in December 2017. Now it seems every week or two we get a new story that ripples across the legacy media - whether or not these stories are true is subject to debate. It seems that for such “journalistic” outlets they tend to drop the fact-checking ball when it comes to anything UFO/UAP related, and the same could be said for many individuals themselves. Two weeks ago we were dealing with a story from Jeremy Corbell and George Knapp alleged to be a “Black 'half-football-field-sized' triangular UFO seen hovering over California military base”, yet further inspection showed that these were mostly likely simple military flares from a Marine training exercise. That didn’t strop the mainstream media and a bunch of UFO buffs from running with the idea that these were aliens spacecraft. Gotta get them clicks!

This week we have another story breaking and currently being copy and pasted across the media landscape. It comes from a website called The Debrief with the headline, “Intelligence Officials Say U.S. Has Retrieved Craft of Non-Human Origin”, alleging that “a former intelligence official turned whistleblower has given Congress and the Intelligence Community Inspector General extensive classified information about deeply covert programs that he says possess retrieved intact and partially intact craft of non-human origin”.

I have some reservations about this one, and it seems other UFO enthusiasts across social media, the ones who seem to be more logically minded and healthily skeptical, do too.

My first reservation is the sources. The Debrief media start-up was founded in late 2020 by writers from VICE News and other mainstream media outlets, and the particular authors of our “UFO Whistleblower” article, Leslie Kean and Ralph Blumenthal, are long-time New York Times writers. In fact, they were the ones who wrote those original “Secret UFO Program” articles for the New York Times that broke in December 2017. This does not mean the claims contained within The Debrief story are false, I am simply noting the messenger - could some sort of psy-op be at play, here?

The next issue I have with this story is that our intelligence officer turned UFO Whistleblower, David Charles Grusch, is mostly running on hearsay. The Debrief, News Nation, who was able to get Grusch for a sit-down interview, and even Grusch himself have not shown any photographic, video, or document evidence regarding the government’s alleged crash retrievals and program overseeing them. The excuse given by the reporters is that he cannot do so “because they are classified” and for “national security reasons”. Ah, the always useful national security excuse, and while that may be a legitimate excuse, that means we still don’t have verifiable proof to see for ourselves.

Listening to Grusch in his News Nation interview, he continuously talks about “officers who confided in him” about these UFO programs, saying he was not actually a part of the program or has seen any photos from it, he had only heard about these crash retrieval from his colleagues and was shown purported documents about it from them. So, Grusch could be telling the truth from his perspective, and wouldn’t technically be lying to Congress by telling them what he was told, but that doesn’t mean what Grusch thinks and believes is factual in nature. Grusch could have had disinformation given to him, without his knowledge, to be shared with the world as a part of the grander disinformation campaign. And there are many appeal to authority fallacies being presented with this story by the reporters. “We can trust him, he worked for the intel community”, “this official vouches for him, that official vouches for him”, “he’s honest and moral, what he’s saying must be true”. Most of what we have been given at this point is based on conjecture and he said/she said rumors.

It’s also notable that the Department of Defense cleared Grusch to share all of this with the world. As The Debrief noted, “in accordance with protocols, Grusch provided the Defense Office of Prepublication and Security Review at the Department of Defense with the information he intended to disclose to us. His on-the-record statements were all cleared for open publication on April 4 and 6, 2023". One must ask, why would the D.O.D. be clearing this for the public? And why is the media jumping on board this whistleblower with such vigor? Usually whistleblowers who divulge truly sensitive info that the establishment doesn’t want out there get the Julian Assange treatment, silenced and suppressed. While Grusch may be honorable in his intent, I believe it’s possible he’s being used as a part of the grander UFO Disclosure psy-op by the Deep National Security State.

There’s more to this point. John Greenewald from The Black Vault contacted Susan Gough, a Pentagon spokesperson who makes public statements regarding UFO/UAP issues for the Department of Defense. In her statement she says, "To date, The All-domain Anomaly Resolution Office (an office within the United States Office of the Secretary of Defense that investigates unidentified flying objects) has not discovered any verifiable information to substantiate claims that any programs regarding the possession or reverse-engineering of extraterrestrial materials have existed in the past or exist currently.” So while The Debrief tells us that the D.O.D. cleared Grusch’s statements for public release, Pentagon spokespersons are essentially denying his claims. I suppose it is possible the AARO has not come across the information or programs that Grusch is bringing forwards, although I’m not sure how plausible it would be that they wouldn’t know about said programs or alleged crash retrievals. The D.O.D. (supposedly) cleared his statements for public release two months ago, so how did AARO not come across this information by now? And I think my point still stands about the nature of the whistleblower - how is it that this gentlemen is bringing out such revelatory and sensitive information, yet instead of silencing him the establishment is platforming him?

Another red flag that jumps out to me is the legal counsel for UFO whistleblower Grusch, and that is Charles McCullough from the Rose Compass Rose Legal Group in Washington D.C. McCullough was an Obama appointee in 2011 as the Inspector General of the Intelligence Community, and he reported directly to James Clapper at the time. Rose Compass Legal Group appears to be a standard D.C. swamp nest, they represented the activist whistleblower Eric Ciamarella in 2019 when this supposed Ciamarella was making allegations that Trump was using the office of a presidency for personal gain in calls to Ukrainian leader Volodymyr Zelensky. This phony allegation was the basis for Trump’s impeachment proceedings that year, which Trump was later acquitted of by the Senate for. Compass Rose Legal Group represented Eric Ciamarella for that, particularly partner Mark Zaid. Zaid is an absolute D.C. swap rat. So the fact that Compass Rose is representing our UFO whistleblower makes me wonder.

One last red flag I’ll write about was noted by Steven Greenstreet, an investigative journalist for the New York Post. He came across the detail that David Grusch actually tried to come out with this story a year ago, and first approached Jeremy Corbell and George Knapp to do so. The interesting part is that he approached them... at a Star Trek convention. If I were an intelligence official looking to blow the whistle on one of the biggest stories of our time regarding government cover-ups, a Star Trek convention would be the first place I would think of to go to. This also begs the question, if Grusch got in contact with Corbell and Knapp a year ago, why did this story not come out sooner? Why didn’t they report on this? There may be legitimate answers for this, but these are questions that are begged here.

As with any UFO story, especially ones that come from the establishment media, more investigation is required to confirm or debunk before we blindly believe something just because a headline says so. I do believe that the CIA has very much been managing this mainstream “UFO Disclosure” over the last 5.5 years in a limited hangout fashion, with many useful idiots involved who believe they’re doing the right thing - time will tell whether that’s what we’re seeing here or not.

I do believe the military-industrial complex possesses black projects with electro-gravitic craft and likely reverse engineered technologies within them and this has been covered up for decades - but I am highly skeptical as to why the government/media/intelligence complex is deciding to bring all these UFO stories out now. Distraction? More cover-up? What’s the real agenda? As the definition of a “limited hangout” suggests, if they are volunteering these pieces of the information for the public, what are they trying to hide otherwise?

That’s what I want to know.
