US Energy Secretary admits military involvement in UFO investigations
In a recent testimony before the Oversight Committee of the US House of Representatives, US Secretary of Energy Jennifer Granholm acknowledged the involvement of military special forces in investigating unidentified flying objects (UFOs) near nuclear facilities.
This revelation came during a pointed exchange with Representative Anna Paulina Luna on May 23.
Luna initially inquired whether the Department of Energy (DoE) had engaged federal counter-terrorism personnel in these investigations. Granholm’s initial response was evasive, but upon further pressing, she confirmed the DoE’s collaboration with the Joint Special Operations Command (JSOC).
“Yes, we do,” Granholm eventually admitted when asked directly by Luna about the DoE’s cooperation with JSOC.
Granholm’s testimony also included references to UFOs, now formally termed unidentified aerial phenomena (UAPs), being identified as drones around critical US infrastructure.
When Luna brought up reports of similar sightings dating back to the 1940s, Granholm promised to follow up, indicating no immediate response. Granholm also denied any knowledge of efforts to reverse-engineer technology from UFOs.
This admission is significant because JSOC’s involvement suggests high-level security measures and potential interest in the technological aspects of these phenomena.
UFO expert Jeremy Corbell emphasized the importance of this acknowledgment, noting JSOC’s reputed role in the retrieval and study of alien technology.
The exchange highlighted the ongoing complexity and secrecy surrounding the US government’s handling of UAPs. While the term UFO commonly invokes images of extraterrestrial craft, it broadly refers to any aerial object of unknown origin.
