YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

A newly-released Pentagon document offers a peek behind the curtain at how military officials reacted to a former employee going public about UFOs.

In December 2017, a front page New York Times story about a secret $22 million Pentagon UFO program went viral around the world. The main source in this article was Lue Elizondo, a former Department of Defense intelligence officer who had recently resigned. Elizondo claimed to have run this UFO program for nearly a decade.

Our previous reporting has revealed that this New York Times article was mostly wrong: Elizondo was not the director of a Pentagon UFO program. And the Pentagon didn’t even have a UFO program.

Confusing, right?

Well in 2017 when the New York Times story broke, senior officials at the Pentagon were also confused, scrambling to figure out just what the heck this Elizondo guy was talking about.

And that’s what this new document is. An accounting of how the Pentagon initially dealt with the UFO story.

It was acquired via a Freedom of Information Act request filed by John Greenewald. Greenewald is an expert in government documents and he runs the The Black Vault. The Black Vault contains millions of pages of government documents released via the Freedom of Information act.

Steven Greenstreet spoke with Mr. Greenewald about this new revelatory document.
