There has been no official announcement from government regarding this Council yet.
To what extent will the White House take ownership of this Council and how will it be communicated?
I am currently awaiting comment from DoW.
BREAKING: The Pentagon released a third volume of UFO files on Friday morning. The volume includes more than 70 files, including six videos. https://t.co/5BQ0DfrPrT
While chatting with a friend yesterday, we discussed what might happen to astronomy funding after Disclosure. In my view, there is a tension between a scenario in which the first recognised evidence of extraterrestrial life comes through SETI or conventional astrobiology, and one in which Disclosure arrives through the White House, or through the small amount of academic UAP research currently being conducted.
Let us consider a scenario in which there are zero indications of UAPs in astronomical data, and astrobiologists proudly announce that planet Huntabunta-32b exhibits a rich array of biosignatures, perhaps even accompanied by a small radio-emitting moon. News of that kind would almost certainly lead to a major increase in funding for astronomy.
Now consider the alternative, and in my view, the far more realistic scenario: the White House publicly acknowledges contact with non-human intelligence (NHI) within the coming years, and confirms that UFOs are real. Given the longstanding stigma surrounding the subject within academia, and how far ahead military and intelligence communities appear to be on the UFO question compared to academic researchers, such an acknowledgment would likely trigger a significant reshuffling of research priorities and funding.
I suspect that a significant fraction of resources would shift away from traditional civilian astronomy and towards more public-facing military programmes dedicated to studying UAPs. At least during the first few years, civilian astronomers would likely struggle to adapt to the new reality and have relatively little to contribute to the discussion. The public would also inevitably ask how astronomers could have missed something so obvious as extraterrestrial presence. At the same time, certain organisations, particularly independent organizations that have supported Disclosure efforts, would become increasingly important, serving as a bridge between civilian and government research and helping to maintain scientific transparency.
For this reason, I believe many astronomers are motivated to dismiss anything related to UFOs or Disclosure. Whether consciously or not, they may recognise that a confirmed UFO reality could eventually compete with existing research priorities and funding structures.
Lawmakers Urge Trump to Grant Immunity to UFO Crash Retrieval Operatives as Whistleblower Repeats Non-Human Body Claims

Anthony here! While @sineadaw sadly could not make it down to DC today for @jamescfox & @lesliekean’s UFO/UAP press conference with David Grusch and bipartisan lawmakers (although she’ll be here with me in a few weeks for the @disclosurefound forum!), there were some notable takeaways from being there in person!
The media contingent was historic for this field (at least 10 different outlets reporting, including a livestream by @reuters)! I met correspondents filming for @el_pais (one of Spain’s most prominent newspapers) and @AlArabiya. The latter’s @houssainetaud had a great chat with me about his own metallic sphere experience flying out of my city of birth—Beirut—that got him interested in this field! He even spoke with Grusch on camera (see photos).
I also had 3 teenage girls come up behind me from outside the fence as Grusch was speaking, without knowing what was going on, and I overheard them as they realized this was “about aliens,” and the geeked out: “OMG that’s David Grusch!” They were absolutely giddy this was happening.
If the above are a microcosm of what’s happening in society on this topic, we are entering uncharted and amazing waters. Hope is in the field. 🙌🏼✨
Exec Orders regarding amnesty and immunity for whistleblowers from the White House are on the agenda.
House Reps have now placed the ball firmly in the President's court.
🇪🇺 Primer evento UAP en la Unión Europea
🔴 Varias de las declaraciones más significativas.
(Podría haber algún error dado que la transcripción se realizó en el momento)
▪️ Europarlamentario Guerreiro: “Debería ser como un movimiento político internacional. Deberían combinarse las herramientas y la metodología”
▪️ Piloto Ryan Graves: “(UE)… tiene un papel significativo que desempeñar en cuanto a coordinar la colaboración a través de Europa para poder informar esto (UAP) desde la perspectiva de la aviación y la seguridad”
▪️ Piloto Christiaan Van Heijst: “Es importante también crear conciencia sobre el tema entre los profesionales”
🔵 Sobre la financiación para investigar los UAPs. Financiación de la UE:
▪️ Europarlamentario Guerreiro:
“Estamos debatiendo los presupuestos del próximo año y acabamos de aprobar las directrices. Así que las prioridades políticas del próximo presupuesto de la UE ya están definidas en cantidades”
“Hay profesionales creíbles, especialmente en la comunidad científica, que quieren debatir este asunto de una manera científica”
Sobre el debate político acerca de los UAP:
“Hice una enmienda, sobre la ley Espacial Europea/UAP y la posibilidad de tener financiación. Estos son movimientos para intentar hablar políticamente del tema”
▪️ José Penedo, jefe de asuntos políticos de la Agencia Europea de Seguridad Aérea de la Unión Europea: “Hay una regulación donde los pilotos y otros profesionales ya pueden informar. Está abierto para todos los profesionales, y esto ya existe. Decir que la UE ha estado activa en eso”
🔴 ¿Una Audiencia UAP en la UE?👇
- Creo que lo ha dicho Guerreiro:
“Creo que el siguiente paso sería obtener algunas perspectivas adicionales si esta moción se aprueba. Por ejemplo, podríamos llevarlo al comité específico y realizar una audición con las partes interesadas clave, para luego realizar un análisis más profundo sobre cómo podemos construir, reformar o mejorar las regulaciones existentes”
▪️ Christiaan Van Heijst: “Necesitamos presupuestos para educar a los pilotos sobre los UAP y también para eliminar el estigma”
▪️ Ryan Graves: “Estamos buscando adjuntar esa legislación (proyecto de ley ya propuesto sobre pilotos civiles en EEUU) a algunos proyectos de ley que se presentarán más adelante este año para, con suerte, acelerar ese proceso”
