Ross Coulthart on UFO Whistleblowers, Government Secrecy, and Media Failures

The History of UFO Secrecy

• 🚀 The US government's official investigation into UFOs began 77 years ago with Project Sign, aiming to assess potential national security threats.
• 💡 Despite initial investigations, a decision was made to cover up findings, a policy that has largely continued for 80 years, with public explanations often relying on mundane causes.
• 🔍 Early reports, like Captain Edward Rupelt's in 1956, revealed buried Air Force reports, such as "The Estimate of the Situation," highlighting a long history of government denial.

The Cover-Up and Disinformation Campaign

• ⚠️ An institutional cover-up has been in place, employing strategic disinformation, deception, threats, ridicule, and stigma to prevent public belief in UFOs.
• 💰 This campaign has involved using national security laws, the invention secrecy act, and threats to livelihoods, with recent whistleblowers alleging murders to protect the secret.
• 🌐 The existence of a deep state or a self-interested internationalist cabal is suggested, concealing efforts to reverse-engineer non-human technology and restricting access to potentially world-changing advancements.

David Grusch: A Courageous Whistleblower

• 🎖️ David Grusch, a former senior intelligence officer, made the courageous decision to go public with his knowledge of a covert program involving recovered non-human technology.
• ⚖️ Grusch acted on principle, honoring his oath to the US Constitution, and faced significant personal suffering and attempts to discredit him, including attacks on his mental health and the tragic death of a friend.
• 📰 Despite facing disinformation tactics and attempts to smear his credibility, Grusch's revelations are considered historic and world-changing.

Mainstream Media and Gatekeepers

• 📺 The mainstream media has largely failed to inform themselves about the reality of the UAP cover-up, often engaging in "access journalism" where stories are fed by the national security state.
• 🗣️ Gatekeepers have used compliant media outlets to push narratives downplaying Grusch's claims, labeling those who take UFOs seriously as grifters or snake oil salesmen.
• 🚫 Many in the White House press corps and government spokespeople, including Admiral John Kirby and Karine Jean-Pierre, conspicuously declined to comment or deflected questions about Grusch's allegations.

Government's Limited Responses and Future Hope

• 🏢 The Department of Defense's response, confined to the AARO office, is seen as an insult to public intelligence, as AARO has limited power and budget compared to the vastness of the Defense Department.
• 🔍 While the FBI is seen as conducting a more transparent investigation, there's a strong sentiment that the Defense Department and intelligence community should not be trusted with UAP data control.
• 🇺🇸 Despite the lack of a bipartisan coalition in Congress or action from the President on UAPs, there is optimism that truth will prevail, and a reckoning is coming for those who failed to investigate the UAP cover-up.
