Feb 15th – Rep. Glenn Grothman (R-WI), the chair who oversaw Grusch's July Hearing, teases upcoming follow-ups
In a conversation with Askapol, Rep. Grothman suggested additional follow-ups with David Grusch are on the cards.
ML: “Any — do you have any follow up questions for David Grusch on the hearing you had last summer?”
GG: “Oh, we may do something else, yeah.”
ML: “Yeah? But…?”
GG: “That’s a tip! Nobody else knows that. We may do something else.”
Feb 16th – Rep. Ralph Norman says Lue Elizondo "absolutely" corroborated David Grusch
Rep. Norman attended a UAP-related briefing hosted by Lue Elizondo at the Conservative Opportunity Society, and made some interesting statements to Askapol when asked about it.
Rep. Norman: “I had heard — well, I’d heard about [Lue Elizondo]. One, he's an expert. And that's another thing, I'm gonna bring him back. Everybody, you young people over here, particularly, because we've got a real problem. This isn’t playland. He told us about the facts of the matter about what's happening. And that too, was concerning. And he wouldn't give any classified things, as you would expect, but my God, it's, I guess, we're just gonna be unprepared and just take it. This isn't political. This isn't politics for you, young people. Of course, it affects all of us, young and old."
Feb 16th – Pentagon spokesperson confirms February 2023 UAP shootdown incidents are still undergoing declassification & public release process
Susan Gough, the Pentagon's UAP spokesperson, made the following comments on the February 2023 UAP shootdowns to Christopher Sharp:
"Those cases are still undergoing the declassification & public release process. Until that is complete I cannot comment on what will be released; nor can I say when the process will be completed"
Things to look out for in the near future:
February
- In a podcast appearance with Jimmy Church, Danny Sheehan claims the Senate is working behind the scenes to put eminent domain (amongst other provisions) back on the table. He suggested we'll likely know quite a bit more about these efforts by the 9th of February. As of February 20th, no concrete update has been provided.
- According to Senator Gillibrand – a public hearing in line with AARO's latest report can be expected soon, saying –"I'll probably have another hearing aligned with that public report.”
- Dr. Kirkpatrick had claimed Volume One of AARO's historical review would be published by the end of the year...so keep your eyes peeled for that. There has been no update on why it has been delayed, or when specifically we can expect to see it published.
Beyond / unknown
- Following the UAP hearing on the 26th of July, Members of Congress have called for a select committee with subpoena authority, to “go about the task of collecting information from the Pentagon and elsewhere” on unidentified flying objects. There have been conflicting messages from various Members of Congress on whether this is likely to happen anytime soon.
- Reps. Moskowitz, Luna, and Burchett have repeatedly stated their intent to hold field hearings to overcome stonewalling from the Pentagon and military establishment
"I think we [Congress] should try to get into one of these places [housing UAP evidence]...and if they won't let us in I think we should have a field hearing right outside the building...and the military will have to explain why that is." – Rep. Moskowitz (D)
It is currently unknown when exactly we might expect that to occur, however as of Jan 12 – Rep. Luna confirmed: "I feel confident that we have enough evidence to move forward with our first field hearing. @mattgaetz @JaredEMoskowitz @timburchett . We will be announcing details soon." - Several journalists have indicated that first-hand witnesses of the alleged UAP legacy programs are in the process of providing testimony/evidence to the relevant authorities (e.g. the IC IG) and/or are on the verge of making public statements in the near future (Example 1, example 2, example 3, example 4)
- David Grusch has received additional clearances through DOPSR to discuss some of his (alleged) first-hand knowledge of Legacy programs. He has mentioned he may be covering more of this information in an upcoming Op-Ed
- Some commentators have speculated that the architects of the UAPDA (e.g. Sens. Schumer/Rounds et al) are working diligently behind the scenes to continue furthering serious legislative UAP transparency efforts

I recently started hosting longer-form conversations with relevant figures in the UAP disclosure space to go beyond the headlines and provide more context on the broader discourse. These conversations are available on YouTube and Spotify:
