On March 2nd, 2023, a federal contractor with a SECRET security clearance was handed a false identity.
He was directed to erase his own name from government systems.
He had spent months building UAP monitoring tools inside the FAA.
A thread. 🧵
Respectfully, my experience doesn’t match this. I’ve filed with DHS OIG, FAA, OSC, SAF/IG, DOT OIG, and DoD IG. Every one closed or declined, no findings explained. My DoD IG complaint closed last week with a case number and a FOIA pointer, nothing else. My UAP research reached ODNI, then I was directed to build a false identity, hospitalized days after filing a federal complaint, and an Air Force official denied any connection to me in writing to a US Senator, directly contradicted by two recruitment emails I have. If IC OIG is committed to protecting whistleblowers, I’d genuinely welcome that starting now.
The intelligence community as a whole can’t be trusted right now. Not ODNI, not the IG offices meant to hold it accountable. I’ve lived it. Whistleblowers are told to trust the process, then watched as that same process protects the institutions instead of the people who came forward.
Good question. SF-50 and eOPF are federal employee personnel records, I was a contractor, not a federal hire, so those wouldn’t exist for me regardless. What I do have: a PIV card issued directly by the FAA (full email chain with their PIV Administrator, June 2023), returned upon my resignation as required, and the underlying contract, NISC IV, contract number 693KA9-21-D-00008, awarded by the FAA to Leidos, under which I was assigned as GIS Software Developer supporting AJR-223. That’s the contractor equivalent of what you’re asking for, and it’s documented.
DoD Hotline closed my complaint today. No findings, no explanation, just a case number and a pointer to file a FOIA request if I want to know what happened.
That's six federal offices now: #DHS OIG, #FAA, #OSC, #SAF/IG, #DOT OIG, and #DoD IG.
Same outcome every time.
I can’t speak to AARO or PURSUE specifically, but I can tell you what whistleblower retaliation looked like in my case. My UAP research reached ODNI. Leidos holds a $375 million prime contract with ODNI, and separately, my work was contracted through the FAA. Shortly after my research reached ODNI, I was directed to build a false identity, financial exposure followed under that alias, and I was hospitalized days after filing a federal complaint. An Air Force official’s written denial to a sitting Senator is directly contradicted by two recruitment emails. That’s documented, not theoretical.
People ask how I can prove I was where I say I was, the day this started. My bank statement from March 2, 2023 does it for me: a Metro fare, small purchases at a coffee shop and a pharmacy, all within a couple hours. Nobody fabricates a coffee run to build a fake story.
That’s the kind of evidence behind this. Not interpretation. Receipts.
Fair question, it’s a lot to take in cold. Short version: I was directed to move my UAP research to an account under a randomly generated name, I was told to create an alias, and a muscle relaxer I’d canceled got refilled without me asking, the same day. It clicks together more as the episode goes.
Three years of documenting, filing, and being ignored by nearly every institution I turned to. Yesterday, for the first time, I got to tell the story out loud, to someone who actually read the documents first.
Thank you to @UAPFilesPodcast for the platform, the preparation, and for treating this like the documented case it is rather than a spectacle. It mattered.
If you want the full account, it’s in Plausibly Deniable.
The podcast was the introduction. The book is the record.
Here’s a taste of what’s documented: an official Air Force email chain, the same one a Pentagon official later denied existed.
@prncevincecares@FBI@DeptofWar@ODNIgov I filed a complaint with the FBI about UAP-related retaliation in 2023. No action was taken.
I’d ask the new UAP Governance Board directly: what happens to complaints already on file with the agencies now forming this board? I have the documentation. #UAP#Whistleblower
@ProfAviLoeb as a former cleared FAA contractor who built a UAP visualization tool that reached ODNI — abstract accepted at the 2023 ESRI User Conference — I welcome rigorous scientific oversight.
What I’d ask the council to consider: the gap between what field operators document and what institutional oversight acknowledges is where progress disappears.
I’ve lived that gap. I was hospitalized for whistleblowing. A GS-15 Air Force official made a false written statement to a U.S. senator about my case.
The documentation exists. Happy to share it.

This challenge coin was given to me personally by an #FAA System Operations Security – Special Operations officer at the 2022 #ESRI User Conference. Front: Federal Aviation Administration seal. Back: ‘System Operations Security – Special Operations.’
That same officer’s name appears in the alias identity package I was directed to construct on March 2, 2023. It’s documented in my filings and in my book.

The dismissal tactic has a name in intelligence tradecraft. It’s called plausible deniability. You don’t refute the evidence. You refute the person. I held a SECRET clearance, built UAP monitoring tools inside the FAA, and watched my work reach ODNI. Then every federal agency found a reason to look away. Something is going on. I wrote the book on it. Literally.
@prncevincecares@UAPFilesPodcast Thank you, I’d welcome the opportunity. My story is documented, not theoretical. Cleared FAA contractor, UAP research to ODNI, hospitalized for whistleblowing, bank fraud, false statement to a U.S. senator. It’s all in the record. @UAPFilesPodcast
@MrHustleMCR I was hospitalized after whistleblowing. Leidos retrieved my evidence-containing laptop while I was incapacitated. The hospitalization wasn’t a coincidence. It was the point. #PlausiblyDeniable
@GallaudetTim I came forward. Cleared FAA contractor. UAP research that reached ODNI. Hospitalized for whistleblowing. False written statement to a U.S. senator. Nobody called. Protections mean nothing if they only apply to witnesses with the ‘right’ information. #PlausiblyDeniable
@robjonesreports@TheUfoJoe@NewsNation I’m a cleared FAA contractor who was hospitalized for whistleblowing in 2023. I filed complaints with OSC, DoD IG, SEC, FAA, and DHS OIG. A GS-15 Air Force official made a false written statement to a U.S. senator about my case. Not one acknowledgment. #PlausiblyDeniable
@NewsNation@Ice_Alchemist11 I’m a cleared FAA contractor who was hospitalized for whistleblowing in 2023. I filed complaints with OSC, DoD IG, SEC, FAA, and DHS OIG. A GS-15 Air Force official made a false written statement to a U.S. senator about my case. Not one acknowledgment. #PlausiblyDeniable
@RepLuna Permanent immunity protections are needed. I’m a cleared FAA contractor who was hospitalized for whistleblowing. A GS-15 Air Force official made a false written statement to a U.S. senator about my case. Your office has my materials. #PlausiblyDeniable
@Ice_Alchemist11 I won't be there but I'll be watching. Real change means whistleblower protection laws with teeth not just disclosure moments. I filed complaints with OSC, DoD IG, SEC, and FAA this week alone. The system needs to protect people before they're harmed, not after #PlausiblyDeniable
