(NewsNation) — Americans could soon learn more about what many have long suspected regarding unidentified flying objects.
UFO whistleblower Luis Elizondo, a former Pentagon official, joined “CUOMO” on Friday to discuss the FAA admitting a UFO crashed into a fighter jet in 2023 and the Trump administration’s openness to discussing the subject.
“We’ve been saying for the last eight years … that there have been dozens upon dozens of these near-air collisions that have occurred with military and civilian and commercial pilots,” Elizondo said.
“This is not just happening with military aircraft.”
The whistleblower believes the Trump administration’s actions are due to the existence of UFOs being the “worst-kept secret in American history.”
“It’s been 80 years of suppression and misinformation, and we’re at the point now where I think … the administration realizes that America can handle the truth.”
Elizondo has been working with the FBI in some of their investigations and says the agency is “running laps around the Department of Defense’s” UAP program.
“I think we’re finally getting a congealing, if you will, of the right people, the right resources, the right authorities to finally shed some light on this incredible mystery and give the information not only to Congress, but the American people,” Elizondo added.
