Ross Coulthart says White House sources told him President Trump authorized a Department of War operation to down unidentified craft at White Sands – and across the border near Juárez. Avi Loeb wants the materials. Lue Elizondo calls a shoot-down a provocation. The White House has not confirmed it.
Avi Loeb has assembled a 15-member UAP Science Advisory Council that reports to the White House, Pentagon, FBI, and intelligence community. The council has submitted its first request for data. But it can only see unclassified material – and the real evidence may be locked behind walls the council cannot reach.
Principal Deputy DNI Aaron Lukas signed July 31 guidance putting Trump's UAP NDA directive into effect: any NDA blocking disclosure to the President or AARO/PURSUE designees is 'no longer in force.' All intelligence agencies have 30 days to comply.
Fox News reports President Trump ordered the Department of War and the intelligence community to abrogate nondisclosure agreements for former employees and contractors who bring UAP information to AARO or PURSUE. Officials say it is not a public declassification order.
In a Fox News interview, David Grusch says the president is deeply knowledgeable on UAPs, confirms he saw photos of non-human remains, and names Dick Cheney as the last person to centrally oversee the programs.
Liberation Times names Aaron Lukas, the Principal Deputy Director of National Intelligence and former CIA station chief, as a key figure blocking the Trump administration from accessing stronger UFO material. Multiple sources say he is protecting CIA legacy programs and undermining his own boss, DNI Tulsi Gabbard.
The fifth PURSUE tranche drops 41 files and 16 official videos: AC-130 cold orbs over the Gulf of Oman, 2026 FBI infrared, Middle East and Pacific sensor clips, FBI Form 302s with bureau digital renderings including the 2002 Bagram triangle, plus a Brazil/Bahia cable and Hegseth transparency statement.
The fourth PURSUE tranche includes three NASA photographs from Space Shuttle Columbia's STS-80 mission showing an unidentified object in low-Earth orbit, plus 19 military videos, a 1949 Los Alamos green-fireball conference, Yellow Sea and East China Sea sensor tracks, and a Pantex nuclear-site incident. The archive is now at 334 files.
The White House says the Department of War has released the first batch of unresolved UAP records under PURSUE, a new rolling disclosure system. The initial files include DOW/AARO videos, Apollo-era imagery, FBI photos, Gemini audio, and source documents.
Rep. Tim Burchett told Planet Tyrus he spent more than two hours in a high-level Pentagon UAP meeting this week – and that unelected officials are still blocking disclosure, even claiming the president is on a need-to-know basis.
Vice President JD Vance told a podcaster he believes UFOs are demons, not aliens. His comments echo a pattern of religious objections that have been used inside the Pentagon for years to block UAP research – even as physical evidence mounts.
NASA Administrator Jared Isaacman says the space agency has captured imagery of objects it cannot explain, credits Trump with ordering the material released, and says he has not seen evidence of crashed craft or recovered bodies – while predicting humanity will conclude 'there's life everywhere' within our lifetime.
The first PURSUE tranche includes a 130-foot bronze ellipsoid, a UAP making 90-degree turns over Greece, an FBI interview describing a military encounter, a memo about 4-foot beings, Apollo imagery, Gemini audio, and 2025 infrared stills. Here is what each file is, why it matters, and what's still missing.
Perry Stone, Alan DiDio, and Tony Merkel say Christian leaders were privately warned to prepare congregations for UFO disclosure. The claim points to a bigger question: who is shaping the religious response before the public sees the files?
Ross Coulthart reports the President has received a direct briefing on the legacy UAP crash retrieval program – deeper than anything from his first term. AARO showed Congress 30 videos that 'made everyone gasp.' The question is no longer what the government knows. It's what the President will tell the public.
The Pentagon's second UAP file drop includes video of an F-16 destroying a UAP over Lake Huron, submarine-proximate footage, Apollo 12 audio, a senior intelligence officer's orb encounter report, and a 116-page Cold War sightings dossier. War.gov/ufo passes 1 billion hits. A third release is already being prepared.
President Trump escalated his UFO rhetoric during an Oval Office event with Artemis II astronauts, promising 'a lot of things' will be released and that Americans will be 'reading about' what officials have seen.
In under 48 hours, the White House went from 'we'll look into it' to 'I just left a meeting on that subject.' The President's personal involvement marks a turning point in the pattern of disappearances and deaths among America's nuclear and aerospace elite.
Former Pentagon intelligence official Christopher Mellon says Trump's order to release UFO files is significant but warns that real disclosure won't come from an archival data dump – it will come from the White House.
On February 19, 2026, President Trump directed Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth and federal agencies to begin identifying and releasing all government files related to UFOs, UAPs, and extraterrestrial life. No timeline was set.
