Editor's note: In March 2025, Rep. Eric Burlison, R-Mo., hired David Grusch to work on his staff and advise on UFO investigations (https://x.com/BlakeBurman/status/1904...) NewsNation’s reporting on the unidentified anomalous phenomenon issue was followed by Congressional hearings, newly proposed legislation, changes within the Pentagon and reduced stigma for U.S. military personnel reporting unidentified object sightings encountered during missions and training. In June 2023, NewsNation aired an exclusive TV interview with retired Maj. David Grusch, a U.S. Air Force veteran who had top secret security clearance while working at the National Geospatial-Intelligence Agency, where he co-led the agency’s UAP portfolio. In the interview, Grusch discusses his investigation and his formal whistleblower complaint. He alleges, under oath, that his UAP Task Force was refused access to a broad crash retrieval program to secure technical craft of nonhuman origin. #uap #ufo #nonhuman Ross Coulthart's other whistleblower conversations Lue Elizondo TV special    • Confessions of a UFO Hunter: Ross Coulthar...   Lue Elizondo full interview    • UFO whistleblowers: Lue Elizondo calls Dav...   Jake Barber TV special    • Whistleblower reveals UAP retrieval progra...   Jake Barber full interview    • UFO whistleblower Jake Barber would '100% ...   NEWS ARTICLE: https://www.newsnationnow.com/space/u...
