White House Consulting Religious Leaders on “We Are Not Alone”

Ross Coulthart reported on NewsNation that the Trump administration is actively soliciting advice about how to tell the public that “we are not alone.” White House officials are consulting with religious leaders and seeking guidance on managing the ontological shock of disclosure.

Chris Sharp (Liberation Times) corroborated the report: “This is pretty big from Ross. However, he is someone I trust and this broadly corresponds with the excitement I am hearing.”

This tracks directly with earlier reports that pastors were briefed to prepare their congregations – and with Corbell’s Friday claim that White House comms staff contacted him about preparing presidential language on UFOs. The pattern suggests the administration is laying groundwork for a formal public statement.

Burchett: Trump Officials Facing Resistance – “If They Don’t Kill Him First”

Rep. Tim Burchett escalated his rhetoric, saying Trump’s top officials told him directly that they are facing resistance on the UFO files:

“If they don’t kill him first, he’s gonna turn the tables on this thing.”

Burchett also said the Deep State is intentionally releasing videos of objects that are clearly not UAP as disinformation: “I have a hard time with a Federal Government that thinks they’re so arrogant that Americans can’t handle what’s going on with this.”

The comments extend his Friday criticism of Release 02 as “the Deep State classic” – but the “kill him” language marks a new level of alarm about internal resistance to disclosure.

Knapp and Elizondo Debrief Release 02

George Knapp interviewed Lue Elizondo hours after the second PURSUE drop to get his assessment – “the good, the bad, the ugly aspects of this odd process and where it might lead.”

Separately, Elizondo posted a Memorial Day reflection on military camaraderie and the bonds between veterans – a reminder that many of the people driving disclosure are themselves career military and intelligence officers who served.

Burchett on Underwater UAP Hearing: “We Need More Than One Guy”

Asked why Congress hasn’t held a hearing on underwater UAP encounters, Burchett told Ask a Pol:

“You got one guy that’ll come in and talk about it. We need more than that.”

The comment suggests Congress has at least one willing witness for USO (unidentified submerged object) testimony but is waiting for additional corroboration before scheduling a hearing. The submarine-proximate UAP footage in Release 02 may help build that case.

Burlison Presses MITRE for Answers on UAP Records

Rep. Eric Burlison sent a formal letter to MITRE Corporation demanding answers about its suspected long-time role in the legacy UAP program. The letter presses MITRE on UAP records, FFRDC (Federally Funded Research and Development Center) accountability, and compliance with federal declassification mandates.

Ross Coulthart flagged the move: “Rep Burlison has turned up the heat on MITRE corporation, regarding its suspected long-time role in the legacy UAP program.” Jeremy Corbell added: “If UAP records, sensor data, materials analysis, crash-retrieval history, or reverse-engineering program evidence was parked inside contractor/FFRDC networks, this is how you smoke it out.”

This is the second specific FFRDC Burlison has targeted – after his MIT Lincoln Labs request for a 1952 “flying saucer talk” briefing.

Trump: “We’re Releasing a Lot of Information Having to Do With Extraterrestrial Things”

President Trump used the word “extraterrestrial” publicly for the first time when discussing the PURSUE file releases:

“We’re releasing a lot of information having to do with extraterrestrial things and people are totally fascinated by it. It’s amazing, I wasn’t sure they would enjoy it. It’s literally trending number 1, could you believe it.”

Ross Coulthart flagged the quote with one word: “Extraterrestrial?” – noting the significance of a sitting president using that specific term rather than the carefully neutral “unidentified anomalous phenomena.” Chris Sharp added: “Political momentum is everything. UFOs used to equate to political suicide. Now that politicians realise its popularity, there is now real momentum on transparency.”

McCasland: Detective Audio Reveals Space Force Meeting Before Disappearance

Detectives released audio of an interview with a woman who had dinner with missing Gen. Neil McCasland the night before he vanished. The interview reveals that McCasland met with an unidentified woman and members of the U.S. Space Force just hours before he disappeared on February 27.

Collin Rugg reported: “According to new bodycam footage, McCasland, who was linked to classified UFO programs, had a meeting with an unidentified woman and members of the US Space Force.”

The revelation deepens the mystery around McCasland’s disappearance – the retired AFRL commander named in the Podesta-DeLonge WikiLeaks emails as a central figure in UFO disclosure efforts.

Corbell: White House and Pentagon Asked Him How to Tell Americans the Truth

Jeremy Corbell provided more detail on his earlier claim that White House officials contacted him. Both the White House and Pentagon comms departments reached out to ask how they should disclose the truth about UFOs to the American public:

“You have to say why you’ve kept this hidden. Who you’ve hurt to keep it hidden. Why would you hold back the nature of reality from humankind?”

Chris Sharp said Corbell’s claims “broadly correspond with the excitement I am hearing.” Separately, Corbell pushed for the next step in disclosure: “David Grusch testified to bodies. Non-human intelligence bodies. So there’s got to be autopsies, photographs and footage. If people keep the pressure on, the records will come out.”

Sharp endorsed: “Should credible imagery of non-human bodies arise – then it puts the government in a very difficult position.”

Corbell Tells NBC: Satellite Footage Shows UFOs Coming From Space, Going In and Out of the Ocean

Jeremy Corbell appeared on NBC News and told anchor Gadi Schwartz that satellite footage exists showing UFOs coming in from space and going in and out of the ocean. The claim was made on national television – a significant step up from podcast or X commentary.

Schwartz himself disclosed a personal UAP sighting, describing a childhood experience in the New Mexico desert with his father that was “eerily similar” to the 2021 Syria instantaneous acceleration video from PURSUE Release 02.

White House Posts Crop Circle “Loading” Teaser

The official White House X account posted a high-production video showing a spotlight illuminating a massive crop circle pattern with “loading” text – amid the ongoing wave of PURSUE releases. Ross Coulthart noted: “Someone in the White House seems to have a thing about crop circles now.”

Coulthart’s read: the White House is “using mysterious, high-production social-media tactics to get people talking and paying attention. It doesn’t explicitly say what’s coming, but given the timing and recent UAP declassifications, the strongest read is that it’s teasing” something related.

Jeremy Corbell was more skeptical: “I suspect tonight the White House is going to punk the American people. They’ll use the massive public interest in UAP – in ‘aliens’ – and weaponize that curiosity for a political message that has nothing to do with the global mystery surrounding UFOs.”

Sharp: “Release the Photograph!”

Chris Sharp (Liberation Times) posted a pointed demand: “Release the photograph!” – referring to a specific piece of UAP evidence whose existence has been discussed in disclosure circles. Sharp’s latest Daily Mail piece also explored the religious dimension, noting that while disclosure could strengthen some believers’ faith, “there will be others who will view any disclosure as a threat.”

Former White House NSC Aviation Security Director: “This Technology Is Not Man-Made”

A former White House National Security Council Director of Aviation Security went on record stating that UFOs are not built by humans:

“This type of technology is not man-made. It’s nothing that we can build, or have. Things that physics has inhibited us from.”

The official described bright orb UFOs that show no propulsion but “instantaneously take off.” Ross Coulthart called it “quite an extraordinarily significant admission from a former White House National Security Council director of aviation security.”

This is one of the most direct statements from a named former White House security official – someone whose job required evaluating aerial threats in the national airspace.

Burlison Pushes for Independent Body to Handle UAP, JFK, and Epstein Files

Rep. Eric Burlison is now advocating for an independent body to take over UAP, JFK, and Epstein file transparency – stripping that responsibility from the agencies and administrations with a motive to conceal their own misconduct. Ross Coulthart reported Burlison wants this entity to operate outside the intelligence community’s control.

The move reflects growing frustration with agencies self-certifying their own compliance with declassification mandates – the same dynamic Burlison targeted in his MITRE letter earlier this week.

The White House’s cryptic crop circle “loading” video from Wednesday night turned out to be a political messaging stunt, not a UAP disclosure teaser. The video was used to promote unrelated policy content.

Jeremy Corbell had predicted exactly this: “I suspect tonight the White House is going to punk the American people. They’ll use the massive public interest in UAP – in ‘aliens’ – and weaponize that curiosity for a political message.” Chris Sharp called it “hugely disappointing.” The Good Trouble Show added: “Nice to see the Trump administration thinks national security is a laughing matter.”

The episode underscores a growing tension: the White House is simultaneously releasing genuine UAP files through PURSUE while also exploiting public fascination with the topic for engagement bait.

Military Pilots Reporting UAPs Nearly 5 Times a Day

Ross Coulthart flagged data from Safe Aerospace showing that military pilots are now reporting UAP encounters nearly five times per day. Coulthart called it a reason “this should be a major national security priority for the President, not something the White House uses for social media engagement.”

June 9 Capitol Rally: Grusch, Congress Members to Demand Full Release

A major disclosure event is scheduled for June 9 on the steps of the U.S. Capitol. David Grusch, Leslie Kean, James Fox, and multiple members of Congress are set to demand the public release of all classified UAP materials. The event is being organized as a “call to action” for full transparency.

Stephen Miller Discussed Whistleblower Amnesty With Burlison

White House Deputy Chief of Staff Stephen Miller discussed amnesty for UAP whistleblowers with Rep. Eric Burlison. Burlison proposed a 60-day window for those with information about classified UAP programs to come forward without legal repercussions.

This is the first report of a senior White House official actively engaging with the mechanics of whistleblower protection for UAP disclosure. It moves the conversation from abstract calls for transparency to concrete policy: who gets amnesty, under what terms, and for how long.

Separately, Burlison tweeted that people connected to federally funded research and development centers are reaching out to his office and pointing Congress toward files it should review: “These entities may hold key pieces of the UAP puzzle.”

Liberation Times: Trump, The Vatican, and the Market Shock

Chris Sharp published a major piece for Liberation Times examining the growing disclosure debate across three fronts: religion, markets, and whistleblower testimony.

Key points from Sharp’s thread:

A 2026 Deloitte paper treated UFO disclosure as a possible Black Swan event, warning it could hit global markets with a shock similar to a major geopolitical crisis
Whistleblower Dylan Borland told Liberation Times: “I would applaud President Trump for pursuing truth, the building block of the Constitution”
Lue Elizondo told Liberation Times the greater danger may not be the information itself but “the vacuum created by withholding it” – “What creates anxiety in people on any topic, any issue, really, is uncertainty”
A forthcoming preparedness plan from uNHIddenhealth, a non-profit examining the public health implications of NHI disclosure, sets out why this would not simply be a scientific announcement but a civilizational event

NY Post: Ex-Pentagon Official Says UFOs Have Been Real Since the 1940s

The New York Post ran a piece quoting a former Pentagon official stating the new PURSUE file batch proves UFOs have been real since the 1940s – spanning the entire modern era from the first wave of sightings through the present day.

The framing is significant: a mainstream tabloid with massive reach treating the cumulative PURSUE evidence as proof of a decades-long phenomenon rather than isolated incidents.

Good Trouble Show: Northrop Grumman Employees Retaliating Against Whistleblowers

The Good Trouble Show reported that “a handful of Northrop Grumman employees, operating under dual hat roles tied to the UAP legacy program, are coordinating retaliation against individuals the program considers threats.” The claim specifically names a major defense contractor and alleges active, ongoing retaliation – not just historical obstruction.

Melissa Casias Found Dead – Handgun Recovered Beside Her Remains

Melissa Casias, the Los Alamos National Laboratory employee who vanished from her Taos home on June 26, 2025, has been found dead. A handgun was recovered next to her remains.

Casias is the latest name in the growing pattern of defense aerospace personnel who have died or disappeared. Roughly half the cases in the pattern have been ruled suicides. She left her home on foot, leaving behind her car, purse, and two phones – both found factory-reset.

Boebert: Classified UFO Briefings Revealed “Supernatural” Things – “A Lot of Underwater Activity”

Rep. Lauren Boebert said classified UFO briefings she attended revealed “supernatural” things and that there is “a lot of underwater activity.” Ross Coulthart noted that Boebert “acknowledges the best UAP stuff is still being hidden from the public.”

Boebert joins Burchett (“miraculous”) and Luna (Book of Enoch) in describing classified UAP material in religious or supernatural terms – a pattern that connects to the White House consulting religious leaders about disclosure’s ontological implications.
