The Pentagon comes out in a rush to deny the 'alien' revelation of ex-official Grusch: "Your information cannot be corroborated"

INTERNATIONAL / By Luis Moreno

UFOs and alien life are in the news again. In a four-hour hearing, members of the Oversight Committee of the United States House of Representatives heard testimony from three ex-servicemen on Wednesday about the activities of the American government with objects from other worlds.

David Grusch, a former Air Force intelligence officer, even recounted under oath that the Pentagon has been working and experimenting with unidentified aerial phenomena (UAPs) of alien origin for decades.

These statements have been denied by the US government.. Susan Gough, a spokeswoman for the American Defense Department, explained to Fox News Digital that there is “no verifiable information to corroborate claims that there are programs related to the possession of extraterrestrial materials.”

In a statement to NBC, Gough has appealed for collaboration to clarify any type of sighting: “We welcome the opportunity to speak with any government employee who believes they have relevant information.”

However, there are classified government documents on UFOs and aliens, which is why the hearing was called in the Capitol. Senator Chuck Schumer has told the Wall Street Journal the importance of declassifying these documents: “It will be very useful for the American people to see exactly what is there. Because otherwise, there will be all kinds of rumors going around.”

Gough, referring to government workers, has stressed the importance of these documents remaining classified. “Every individual must protect classified information and must not share it with the media, the public or anyone who does not have access to it,” he said.

The famous Swiss 'ufologist' Giorgio Tsoukalos has shared on his Twitter profile an extensive reflection on the information uncovered by Grusch, assuming that his statements are true: “Unless we have all been deceived by a group of madmen, Planet Earth has learned that we're not the only intelligent beings in the Universe. It's ridiculously exciting.”

The 'ufologist', protagonist of an iconic 'meme' several years old, has tweeted a new version of the joke, in which “I told you” is written.
