00:00:00.120 --> 00:00:04.639
This is UFO sightings today. A UAP expert told NewsNation
2
00:00:04.799 --> 00:00:07.480
sixteen hours ago that the people who come forward with
3
00:00:07.559 --> 00:00:13.480
sighting reports and classified memories need legal protections. Now, the
4
00:00:13.640 --> 00:00:18.519
expert argued, witnesses face threats, career damage, and retaliation that
5
00:00:18.679 --> 00:00:24.039
silence testimony and stall investigations. The plea comes against a backdrop.
6
00:00:24.079 --> 00:00:29.199
The community cannot ignore recent deaths and harassment of whistleblowers,
7
00:00:29.640 --> 00:00:33.600
including the April death of Air Force officer Matthew James Sullivan,
8
00:00:34.039 --> 00:00:38.359
which some members of Congress have called suspicious. The expert
9
00:00:38.560 --> 00:00:44.000
urged lawmakers to create secure channels and statutory safeguards so
10
00:00:44.200 --> 00:00:48.799
evidence can be collected without exposing witnesses to retribution. The
11
00:00:48.880 --> 00:00:52.079
New York Post reports there's a secret tape from nineteen
12
00:00:52.200 --> 00:00:56.479
fifty two of Washington insiders talking about UFOs, and that
13
00:00:56.560 --> 00:01:00.799
the recording will soon be made public. The tape, according
14
00:01:00.840 --> 00:01:03.679
to the report, dates to the era of the nineteen
15
00:01:03.759 --> 00:01:08.680
fifty two Washington Flap, when radar and eyewitness reports alarmed officials.
16
00:01:09.760 --> 00:01:13.680
Historians say hearing those voices could change how we understand
17
00:01:13.799 --> 00:01:19.959
early Cold War responses to unexplained aerial phenomena. Online, the
18
00:01:20.040 --> 00:01:24.680
conversation has turned to vivid community threads of February sixth
19
00:01:24.760 --> 00:01:28.760
sighting in Miami at seven forty four pm walking the
20
00:01:28.840 --> 00:01:33.040
dog cigar in hand, bright lights, hovering for half an hour,
21
00:01:33.719 --> 00:01:37.680
and to an original Lake Tahoe photograph dated October fifth,
22
00:01:38.280 --> 00:01:42.359
nineteen ninety five, and to newly released May eighth, twenty
23
00:01:42.439 --> 00:01:45.680
twenty six documents showing a forty seven Army Air Force
24
00:01:45.719 --> 00:01:51.719
sample labeled an unidentified substance. Official investigators urge caution many
25
00:01:51.719 --> 00:01:57.840
incidents resolved to drones, balloons, lanterns, or misidentified aircraft. The
26
00:01:57.879 --> 00:02:02.640
Pentagon's Anomaly Resolution Office coll lex reports and seeks physical evidence.
27
00:02:03.079 --> 00:02:07.159
Analysts say corroborated sensor data and a clear chain of
28
00:02:07.200 --> 00:02:12.319
custody are essential before extraordinary claims advance. We'll keep watching
