Some Believable People Are Reporting Unbelievable Things About UAPs

Even though it eventually becomes unavoidable, I hate the word ‘believe’ when talking about unidentified aerial phenomena (UAPs, also known as UFOs). You don’t believe that there is a plane in the sky above your head, you see it and say it is there as a matter of fact. For the past couple of years, as a matter of fact, many parts of the United States military have said they are observing unknown objects in the air doing whatever they want over very sensitive military installations. My own digging on this subject led me to a UAP source who told me to look into United States Air Force Plant 42, providing no additional details other than pointing me in that direction, and they did this right before The War Zone published a report about unknown “drone” incursions above Plant 42. Ohio’s vital Wright Patterson Air Force Base even shut down its airspace due to an unknown drone incursion last year. You can hear them do it for yourself “due to heavy unknown UAS activity” thanks to The War Zone’s reporting.

This is happening. There is nothing to believe other than the vast array of statements and evidence that have been presented to date by the most powerful government on earth. The military is admitting in public that unknown “drones” are violating some of our most sensitive military airspace at will right above and around nuclear weapons, Skunkworks and the CIA.

But that’s all old news for 2023 and 2024. This is 2025 now where fascism is en vogue and there are no rules to anything anymore and my brain hurts all the time. Unknown drones pale in comparison to the unbelievable statements and videos coming from credible sources through the first five-ish months of 2025.

Immaculate Constellation

I admit I still have a hard time accepting this as a name for a government UAP program. My eyes rolled so hard into the back of my head the first time I heard it I had to get surgery to move them forward again. Immaculate Constellation??? Come on, man. I get that our government likes to mess around with cute code names and such, but this is a bad attempt at a prank. Especially getting leaked to one of the lame Twitter files guys in Michael Schellenberger?? No way. This is bunk. Someone’s trying to delegitimize the real evidence at the base of this again by getting people to peddle bullshit, right?

Except a journalist who has released multiple UAP videos that the Department of Defense says are real (not that they are UAPs, but the Pentagon verifies that the video came from them) is going to war over Immaculate Constellation. Jeremy Corbell, who is the seeming protégé of the all-time great UAP journalist George Knapp, said he submitted twelve pages of sworn testimony to Congress at the November UAP hearing about Immaculate Constellation, a program that is allegedly sprawling across the government and collecting UAP data wherever it lies. Eleven pages were from a report on Immaculate Constellation written by his source, plus a twelfth cover page Corbell wrote detailing who he was and why he vouches for this source and the veracity of the next eleven pages.

Nancy “I check genitals at the door” Mace chaired that UAP hearing, and she submitted only eleven pages to the Congressional Record, despite saying under oath that Shellenberger supposedly provided Congress with “twelve pages about this unacknowledged special access program that your government says does not exist.” There are twelve pages in the Immaculate Constellation report filed to Congress.gov, but the only difference between it and Mace’s eleven pages is the blank sheet of white paper at the end serving as the twelfth page. Right in front of all the cameras just as it ended, Corbell said Nancy Mace and “about 50 Congressional staffers…lied” about Shellenberger submitting the report and not Corbell. While this may seem like a minor clerical error, Corbell alleges it is anything but due to the importance of chain of custody on this subject, and he reads it as a sinister attack on the sources and information he is trying to report on.

Of all the allegations in this recent crop of UAP reports, “Nancy Mace lied” is by far the most believable. That a Twitter files stooge was allegedly put in place of a journalist is also eminently believable because history may not repeat, but it does rhyme. If you accept both allegations, the natural question of why they would lie about something so seemingly small opens up a realm of much less believable possibilities and allegations.

Corbell and Knapp say the author of the Immaculate Constellation report submitted to Congress is Matthew Brown, who spoke on camera to them on their Weaponized podcast for three hours about how he came to find information on Immaculate Constellation. I am not going to summarize all of it here, (you can watch part 1, part 2, part 3 and Corbell and Knapp’s post-interview analysis at those links), but most of the interview is a look into the vast bureaucracy of the classified world, and how a man who was working in weapons of mass destruction stumbled over some “spillage” (the term used for classified information that is in a place it should not be) which revealed a UAP program called Immaculate Constellation where Brown says he saw former head of AATIP Luis Elizondo’s face on a slide.

This led Brown down a multi-year rabbit hole that sounds familiar to anyone who has tracked the public information we have on UAPs: there is a lot of data and documentation that goes back decades if not centuries if not millennia on this subject, things get very weird very fast, and private companies are a massive player in this realm and are probably the best explanation for how the secrecy of whatever this is has been hidden for so long. Brown told Knapp and Corbell that he became a whistleblower because he does not think this subject is under the control of the United States government, and whatever we do know about UAPs is held in private multinational hands. He ended a three-hour interview that was focused mainly on dry earthly and bureaucratic revelations with a quote that admittedly does sound like the work of a Hollywood writer: “You are not free, and this reality has far more to it than you have been allowed to believe…and God is real.”

I don’t know what to believe, which is part of my core belief system on this subject that helps lead me to the zanier aspects of it (which as I detailed in what I can say I do believe about all this madness, zanier explanations actually have more evidentiary and scientific merit to them than the common assumption of little green men visiting us from other planets). What I do know is that Brown is very explicit that coming forward and showing his face is an attempt to protect himself. This is nothing new for people who have said they worked on UAPs, like Bob Lazar talking to George Knapp in the 1980s. Fear is a part of all these alleged whistleblowers’ stories–David Grusch claimed under oath that people had been harmed to protect UAP secrets–and while it’s easy to roll your eyes at the dramatization of quotes like these, when one of them comes after a pretty sober three-hour granular look into the federal bureaucracy, it sounds a lot more notable.

And ultimately, this is where the word “believe” is unavoidable in this subject. I can scream until I’m blue in the face about how the Navy has changed reporting standards so pilots can report unidentified objects in the air, but that word ‘unidentified’ beggars belief. It is by definition something our supposed all-knowing society does not know, and therefore it cannot exist.

Yet it does, according to the most powerful government in the world and many others across the globe. You cannot accept that something unknown is in the sky without a guess as to what it is. That is the very nature of this subject and the point where it gets dangerous for those trying to apply journalistic and/or scientific principles to study it.

What it could be leads to unbelievable notions based on incredible descriptions of reality by legendary scientific minds like Jacques Vallée. His decades of scientific study on UAPs led him to believe he would be “disappointed” if they were just “interstellar SUVs.” In his 1975 book, Invisible College, Vallée wrote that he thought UAPs were part of a “control system” for humanity that has existed throughout millennia. He jokes that he’s the only UFOlogist who doesn’t know what they are, but he suspects that the mystery of this subject as well as paranormal, religious and cultural lore are all wrapped up in the broader mystery of consciousness.

Can You Control UAPs With Your Mind?

Stay with me here. I know, I’m asking a lot with this heading. But remember, it’s 2025 now and there are no rules to anything anymore.

As I detailed in what I think I think about this, UAPs are very clearly a playground for intelligence operations to spread very unique kinds of bullshit in order to track how other countries gather and digest intelligence, and so it’s eminently possible that David Grusch’s wild testimony could be a real story that happened to him, but it was made up by a three letter agency to further who knows what kinds of ends. Maybe that’s what happened to Matthew Brown too. Grusch himself admits that all his information is second-hand and told to him by people allegedly working in UAP programs, while Brown comes from the nuclear realm and his knowledge stems from the research he did with the classification he had after stumbling on Immaculate Constellation. Both are vetted military people who by all accounts, are who they say they are, but neither said they have actually touched this stuff, making both Brown and Grusch far from a primary source. As the famed saying goes, extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence, so when it comes to UAPs, anything past a first-person description or investigation of them has too much baggage between them and the truth to be the extraordinary evidence needed.

Enter Jake Barber, an elite Air Force and three letter agency operator with a career spent behind black budgets. Barber did an interview with Newsnation earlier this year and claimed to be part of UAP crash retrieval teams for the United States government. Crash retrievals have long lived more in lore than reality, but this recent generation of UAP investigators and whistleblowers have lent more credibility to this subject, like longtime government contractor and scientist Eric Davis telling the New York Times he gave a briefing to a Defense Department agency about retrievals of “off-world vehicles not made on this earth.” Given the lack of evidence around this subject, anyone can say they’re part of UAP crash retrieval teams, but a video accompanied Barber’s interview that was allegedly taken from underneath a helicopter of what Newsnation’s sources say is a crashed UAP carried underneath it.

Barber also told a story of a “dangerous” interaction his team had working in the private sector with a private entity over an attempt to recover what he thought was UAP information on a laptop. Like Brown, he said part of why he is coming forward to talk about this is to protect himself. Again, the private sector is an intrinsic part of this subject and perhaps the most alarming part.

But the most exotic portion of Barber’s interview was his very emotional description of the mental connection he felt with UAPs as a member of crash recovery teams. He described a life-changing experience he had where he feels an interaction with a UAP altered his thinking on the nature of reality. He goes on to detail teams of military operators who allegedly can call down UAPs from the sky with their minds, and Newsnation did a separate interview with Fred Baker, who served with distinction in the U.S. Air Force’s 24th Special Tactics Squadron, the oldest military special forces group, and Baker said he watched UAPs come down from the sky after operators who said they could do it said they were going to do it. Barber seems to understand how utterly batshit insane his and others’ claims sound, and they are attempting to back up their allegations though a scientific venture called Skywatcher.

Skywatcher has produced two roughly half hour videos so far, a first detailing how this project began, and a second a few weeks ago with plenty of UAP footage while operators were supposedly calling them down from the sky. Dr. Garry Nolan, who holds the Rachford and Carlota A. Harris Professor Endowed Chair in the Department of Pathology at Stanford University School of Medicine and who has created several multi-million-dollar companies specializing in testing cancer, joined Skywatcher’s effort to undertake a scientific investigation of this phenomenon (Skywatcher says they do eventually plan to try to profit from this venture, but they are not seeking to do so yet and said they will only release future videos if they have compelling data worth sharing). Dr. Nolan has long been very open about his personal beliefs in UAPs and his desire to scientifically study the unknown, which makes him a good fit to try to accomplish what Skywatcher says they want to do. Supposedly helping them to gather this data is Michael Battista, former U.S. Army Green Beret, who when asked when he thinks he can “summon something in the sky,” answered “anytime I want.”

Barber and others claim that calling UAPs down is done through interfacing with consciousness, echoing Vallée. There is room for that to be possible, mainly due to our ignorance on the subject which creates a seemingly infinite range of possibilities. Science has long struggled to understand consciousness, and new advancements are suggesting that it is a lot stranger and potentially literally weirder than we used to think. Skywatcher is explicit about their desire to publish a peer-reviewed scientific paper, and they are inviting critiques of their work, so we will hopefully see what kind of data and analysis this project yields over the coming years.

…what

I get it. I’m pretty open to wild stuff on this subject and I’m having a hard time accepting these claims, but I embedded those videos for a reason. These people making gobsmackingly audacious allegations are bringing alleged evidence with them to journalists with a wide network experienced in vetting this kind of stuff. There is also a pretty suspicious discrepancy on the Congressional Record that anyone can see for themselves, all emanating from one of the least credible and most cynical people ever elected to Congress. There is smoke that resides outside of the gigantic fires these alleged whistleblowers are setting.

I don’t know what to believe between Barber, Grusch or Brown, but I do know that when someone seems to be making an earnest effort to call out power, particularly private abuses of power in this day and age, and they say they are scared, the least you can do is hear them out–especially if they do it under oath where lying is no simple thing. I do not know if David Grusch was telling the truth two summers ago, but I do know that he’s not in prison right now, and according to Corbell, he was recently sitting in a SCIF with Congress overseeing a sensitive UAP briefing with AARO.

If you accept both Brown and the Skywatcher team’s allegations as true, they do lend credibility to one another. Brown tells a story about how a boring old nuclear bureaucrat became radicalized by UAP secrecy he stumbled upon, leading him to allege that “we live in a dream. A carefully constructed reality. We make use of a science that is tightly controlled, suppressed and distorted. People have been left behind. We are taught false science intentionally to prevent us from learning more. We live in the matrix.” While that is a very dramatic Matrix-esque quote which engenders a natural reaction of distrust, if the Skywatcher folks like Michael Battista are right that the human brain has the freakin’ ability to call UAPs down from the sky “whenever I want,” then yeah, someone’s been lying to us, and I don’t mind the guy who allegedly found out being dramatic about it.

And we know the CIA had programs looking into weird psychic stuff like remote viewing, and Project Stargate was devoted to investigating the potential for psychic phenomena in military and domestic applications nearly 50 years ago. The CIA said they got nothing out of those programs, but not to sound like a polisci 101 freshman who just hit their first blunt, but isn’t that exactly what you’d say if those programs did yield some sort of scientific discovery? I am far from a scientist, just some guy who read a Stephen Hawking book a decade ago and then fell down a UAP rabbit hole, but I can’t help but wonder whether quantum dynamics like the observer effect or quantum entanglement could help explain what seems “woo-woo” to us. Maybe it’s not some fancy psychic power embedded in the love and beauty of the mother earth goddess and blah blah blah, but instead, the human brain finding a way to tap into the extreme strangeness of consciousness to yank on electrons with the help of quantum entanglement.

No matter what you believe (there’s that wretched word again), UAPs are an important issue, and they belong on a political site (Knapp and Corbell’s podcast reaching number one in the science category is a good sign for the current state of journalistic inquiry into this subject, but I wouldn’t say that UAPs are at that level yet). Even if you think I’ve completely lost my mind and this is all utter bullshit, that means that there’s a bunch of whistleblowers saying that private entities have way too much influence over whatever this is, and Congress clearly believes they have been lied to over funds they appropriated. If this is all bullshit, it’s just pure theft based on lies so shameless they may make Trump blush. There’s no potential direction all these UAP allegations point towards where a crime isn’t being committed against us by a rent-seeking group of greedy private interests, and the more legitimate these allegations get, the more heinous that crime becomes.
