UFO Daily is brought to you with the help of AI.

2
00:00:03.919 --> 00:00:08.560
This is UFO Sidings Today. A former intelligence officer told

3
00:00:08.560 --> 00:00:11.960
a national audience this week that the late Vice President

4
00:00:12.000 --> 00:00:17.679
Dick Cheney oversaw what he called a detainment situation involving

5
00:00:17.760 --> 00:00:23.519
live occupants pulled from crashed unidentified craft. The claim comes

6
00:00:23.519 --> 00:00:26.519
from David Grusche in an interview on the Doctor Phil

7
00:00:26.600 --> 00:00:31.239
podcast and was reported by The New York Post. Grooche,

8
00:00:31.399 --> 00:00:35.399
who testified before Congress in twenty twenty three about alleged

9
00:00:35.479 --> 00:00:40.600
crash retrieval programs, said officials even attempted telepathic communications with

10
00:00:40.640 --> 00:00:43.439
some of the pilots, and that he believes the government

11
00:00:43.479 --> 00:00:48.520
holds between twenty five and one hundred such craft. If true,

12
00:00:48.880 --> 00:00:52.640
the allegation raises stark questions about who had authority and

13
00:00:52.719 --> 00:00:56.679
what oversight existed. In a separate report, the Department of

14
00:00:56.719 --> 00:01:00.840
War says it is actively investigating two cell phone videos

15
00:01:00.840 --> 00:01:04.959
that allegedly show a one hundred foot triangular craft over

16
00:01:05.000 --> 00:01:08.560
a Colorado military base. The New York Post says the

17
00:01:08.560 --> 00:01:11.519
clips were recorded on successive nights in twenty twenty three

18
00:01:11.599 --> 00:01:15.920
by a service member. Acting Pentagon Press Secretary Joel Valdez

19
00:01:16.000 --> 00:01:18.799
told reporters. The department will release what it finds under

20
00:01:18.840 --> 00:01:23.519
the Presidential Unsealing and Reporting System for UAP encounters, known

21
00:01:23.560 --> 00:01:29.120
as PURSUE Online. The conversation has split between embarrassment and ingenuity.

22
00:01:29.840 --> 00:01:32.159
One user admitted a favorite clip turned out to be

23
00:01:32.200 --> 00:01:36.359
a missile test after community debunking, writing it doesn't look

24
00:01:36.439 --> 00:01:40.400
like an A ten warthog deploying flares, while another posted

25
00:01:40.439 --> 00:01:44.519
a tool indexing all five twenty twenty six PURSUE releases,

26
00:01:45.000 --> 00:01:48.799
listing five hundred and seventeen files with searchable viewing and

27
00:01:48.879 --> 00:01:52.480
a map room. Officials remind the public that released files

28
00:01:52.480 --> 00:01:56.719
are being vetted. The Pentagon's UAP office, after five batches

29
00:01:56.760 --> 00:02:00.079
of declassification since May, says it has found no so

30
00:02:00.239 --> 00:02:04.719
verifiable evidence that any investigated case was of non human origin.

31
00:02:05.280 --> 00:02:10.560
Investigators continue to consider conventional explanations first, We'll keep watching

00:02:10.599 --> 00:02:16.840
