Documentary Exposes Decades of UFO Cover-Up by Secrecy-Loving Bureaucrats

A new documentary fronted by Luis Elizondo throws down a gauntlet at the feet of the permanent bureaucracy, arguing that decades of secrecy about unexplained aerial phenomena have been nothing short of a cover-up. The film stitches together testimony from insiders and former officials and insists the American people deserve answers about what our own institutions have been hiding. This is not the soft-focus speculation of late-night cable; it is a direct challenge to career bureaucrats who’ve treated national security like an inside game.

Congressman Eric Burlison stunned the recent House hearing when he played video footage that he says shows an MQ-9 Reaper firing a Hellfire missile at an orb off Yemen on October 30, 2024 — and the projectile apparently fails to stop it. The clip, released by a whistleblower and shown publicly for the first time, is chilling because it suggests our most precise weapons may be ineffective against whatever this technology is. Patriots should be alarmed that footage like this sat in a classified drawer while the country’s leaders pretended everything was under control.

Luis Elizondo, appearing on Newsmax’s Saturday Agenda, cautioned that the clip needs proper metadata and provenance before definitive conclusions are drawn, but he also made clear the video raises urgent questions about capability and accountability. His point is simple and reasonable: if the military won’t or can’t produce the full sensor data, then Congress must compel that transparency immediately. For conservatives who believe in robust, competent defense, demanding metadata isn’t conspiracy — it’s common-sense oversight.

Even as explosive footage circulated, the Pentagon publicly declined to authenticate the material, offering nothing but silence when asked to verify time, place, or chain of custody. That shrug from the Department of Defense — “we have nothing to provide for you” — reads like the classic bureaucratic dodge, and it only fuels the case that Americans are being kept in the dark. If our fighters and unmanned systems are encountering unknown craft, we have a right to know whether those encounters threaten lives, ships, or commercial lanes.

This moment should be a turning point for conservatives who care about both security and government accountability: protect whistleblowers, subpoena the data, and stop letting career officials decide which questions Americans can ask. The left will try to turn this into sci-fi entertainment or a call to panic, but responsible conservatives see it as a checklist — evidence, oversight, and capability. Washington’s reflex to hide and stonewall must be replaced by a clear, constitutional obligation to inform the public and secure the nation.

Elizondo has been pushing this story for years; his book Imminent and now the documentary push one message repeatedly: the system failed to treat these phenomena as the potential national security risk they may be. Whether you think the answer is foreign tech, adversary exploitation, or something stranger, the solution is the same — Congress must use its powers and the Pentagon must stop playing games with data. The American people fund our defense; they deserve full accounting and evidence, not dismissive PR lines.

This is a patriotic moment: stand with those who want transparency, back representatives who demand the truth, and insist that our military be honest with the people they serve. We cannot afford a sleepy, complacent leadership that treats unexplained danger with opaque silence while our sailors, pilots, and citizens face the unknown. If we love this country, we demand answers — and we will not rest until the truth is in the light where it belongs.
