Corbell: An Eglin Triangle Witness Completed Congressional Selection

Jeremy Corbell recirculated Daniel Gockerell’s account of a massive, silent triangular craft over Eglin Air Force Base, adding that Gockerell completed the congressional selection process and was authorized to testify in public. Gockerell is a former Army Ranger trainee; Corbell and George Knapp previously aired the 2006 sighting on Weaponized. This is not a new hearing. It is Corbell saying a named witness who did not appear at an open session had cleared the same vetting used for other UAP witnesses. Eglin is already on the congressional map from the 2023 visit by Luna, Burchett, and Gaetz.

Loeb: Galileo’s Next Observatory Should Image UAP Orbs

Avi Loeb wrote that orbs are the most mysterious class in the five PURSUE tranches – meter-scale glowing objects, some cold on infrared, some in hour-long encounters, some with alleged instant acceleration. His fix is a dedicated UAP Orb Observatory: all-sky radar (active or passive) to pick coordinates, then a meter-class telescope to resolve centimeter-scale detail at a couple of kilometers, plus a spectrograph to test composition the way a 2012 ball-lightning spectrum captured silicon, iron, and calcium. He says the Galileo Project will design its next site as an “orb imager.” Council article →

Burlison Tells Corbell He Entered UAP Thinking It Was “Hogwash”

Rep. Eric Burlison, on Corbell’s show, said he came into the UAP subject thinking it was “complete hogwash” and now says he knows something is happening – calling what he has seen “almost terrifying.” Corbell asked whether Burlison had personally seen material the public has not. The clip landed the day after Burlison’s Ask a Pol interview on Grusch’s clearances and CIA/FFRDC holdings.

MKULTRA Journalist: A Congressional Staffer Described Recovered Craft and Beings

Investigative journalist Tom O’Neill – in Washington to testify under oath about the CIA’s MKULTRA program – says a senior congressional staffer escorting him from Disclosure Forum 2026 told him classified UAP briefings include recovered craft, recovered beings, and technology exploited for U.S. defense. O’Neill recalled the staffer saying that if he knew what they knew he would not be agnostic, and that walking members into SCIFs is “terrifying.” The staffer was not named. The account was given on Andrew Gold’s Heretics podcast and reported by Liberation Times. Full article →

Burlison: Restore Grusch’s Clearances – and NARA Has Digitized a Named Recording

Rep. Eric Burlison told Ask a Pol’s Matt Laslo that an NDA waiver for David Grusch is not enough: “what he needs is his clearances all brought back.” He said he has been tenacious with Stephen Miller’s White House group, that the administration will admit they “probably went too far with him,” and that the CIA, FFRDCs, and private contractors – not just the Pentagon – hold the most UAP information. He also said he made sure DOE was not excluded. Separately, Burlison posted that NARA confirmed a recording named in his letter has been digitized, fully declassified, and is set for an upcoming Trump-administration UAP tranche. That is the 1952 MIT Lincoln Laboratory item his office requested in May as AF-ATIC-FILM, 03/52, a “flying saucer talk” associated with Edward Ruppelt. The recording itself is still not public.

Pentagon Moves to Buy Access to North America’s Largest Private UFO Archive

AARO posted a sole-source intent to award a multi-year data subscription to David Marler’s National Unidentified Flying Object Historic Records Center in Rio Rancho, New Mexico. The July 31 Washington Headquarters Services notice, NUFOHRC_20260731, says the nonprofit holds hundreds of thousands of unique case files – including APRO and J. Allen Hynek papers – that exist in no other repository, and that AARO needs them for pre-1990 analysis. A War Department official repeated that unique-source claim to DefenseScoop. Cost undisclosed. Volume II of AARO’s congressionally mandated historical report is still outstanding. Full article →

Luna Shows an FBI UAP Coin – and Says Grusch Is Talking to the White House

Rep. Anna Paulina Luna told Ask a Pol’s Matt Laslo that David Grusch is in direct talks with the White House about an NDA waiver, case by case, not a blanket lift. She then produced a challenge coin from an FBI unit she called SIG – Special Investigations Group. The coin itself reads Special Investigative Group, Federal Bureau of Investigation, and Ignotum Investigantes; the reverse says Unidentified Anomalous Phenomena. Luna said a Stephen Miller-led White House group works with her task force, the Pentagon, and AARO, that briefings have been extensive, and that recent file rollouts came largely from those meetings. She also flagged a possible later two-country investigation without naming the partner. Ask a Pol →

Knapp: A Live Shoot-Down Order Would Break How the Military Treats Unknowns

George Knapp, answering questions about Coulthart’s White Sands intercept reporting, said he has no beef with Ross’s piece and that it sounds like it came from multiple sources. His doubts sit elsewhere: President Trump has been briefed but has not shown much personal enthusiasm or dug into the weeds; an order to shoot down orbs or unknowns is a serious step with strict protocols; nobody shot down the objects that overflew Langley for 17 nights; and Navy crews who meet unknowns far at sea generally do not fire unless there is a clear threat. That does not disprove Coulthart’s sourcing. It is a veteran reporter putting the claim next to how the services usually behave.

Coulthart: A Serving UK Inspector Has Logged 250 Police UFO Accounts

Ross Coulthart’s latest Reality Check is Roy Teague, a serving West Midlands Police inspector and former soldier whose book Close Encounters of the Police Kind collects UAP accounts from more than 250 serving and retired British officers. Teague says he tries to knock cases down first – flares, meteors, aircraft – and that he left out stories that failed checks, including AI images and people who lied about rank. He argues police are trained to observe and to testify, which is why the ridicule around the subject has kept most of these reports in a drawer. All but nine of the officers who came to him agreed to be named. The book was already out in the UK this summer; the NewsNation interview is the U.S. amplification.
