• On April 30th, as part of an in-depth investigation into UFO/UAPs, former Senator Harry Reid (NV-D, pictured above) revealed in The New Yorker that he “was told for decades that Lockheed (Martin) had some…retrieved materials”, ie: fragments of a crashed UFO. (see here for the amazingly accurate summary of the UFO phenomenon thus far in The New Yorker)
• Reid, 81, admitted that he had never actually saw the extraterrestrial remnants allegedly in the possession of the US defense contractor – but he tried, unsuccessfully, to get approval from the Pentagon to find them. “And I tried to get, as I recall, a classified approval by the Pentagon to have me go look at the stuff. They would not approve that,” Reid said. “I don’t know what…kind of classification it was, but they would not give that to me.”
• Earlier the same day, The NY Post ran an article on Luis Elizondo who ran the Pentagon’s AATIP UFO program (see previous ExoArticle here). Elizondo believes that the bombshell government UFO report that is expected before the end of June will address what UFO believers have been clamoring to discover – the Tic Tac-shaped objects the Navy saw in 2004, the strange “cubes within spheres” seen by Navy aviators in 2014, and the mysterious black triangles reported around the world. Elizondo hasn’t been able to get the DoD to act on what he describes as a serious national security risk, and believes the federal government has been covering up the UFOs existence.
• Senator Reid defended the Pentagon whistleblower for taking the heat in the exploration of UFOs.”Mr. Elizondo has spent his career working tirelessly in the shadows on sensitive national-security matters, including investigating UAPs as the head of AATIP,” the former Senate Majority Leader said in a recent statement. “He performed these duties admirably.”
Former Nevada Sen. Harry Reid believes U.S. defense contractor Lockheed Martin
may have once had fragments of a crashed UFO in its possession, it was revealed Friday.
Reid, 81, told The New Yorker that he had never actually seen proof of the remnants — but tried, unsuccessfully, to get approval from the Pentagon to find them.
“I was told for decades that Lockheed had some of these retrieved materials,” the Democrat told the magazine.
“And I tried to get, as I recall, a classified approval by the Pentagon to have me go look at the stuff. They would not approve that,” Reid continued. “I don’t know what all the numbers were, what kind of classification it was, but they would not give that to me.”
His comments were part of an in-depth New Yorker story on U.S. government investigations
into unidentified aerial phenomena (UAP).
Earlier Friday, The Post revealed that an ex-Pentagon official who says he ran the program probing UAPs believes the feds have been covering up their existence.
The controversial whistleblower, Luis “Lue” Elizondo, said he hasn’t been able to get the Defense Department to act on what he described as a serious national security risk.
Elizondo, the former head of the Advanced Aerospace Threat Identification Program, spoke out ahead of a bombshell government report on UFOs that is set to be released before the end of June.
He said the highly anticipated report will address what UFO believers have been clamoring to discover about Tic Tac-shaped objects the Navy saw in 2004, the strange “cubes within spheres” seen by naval aviators in 2014 and mysterious black triangles reported around the world.
