In an interview with Askapol, she elaborated on the focus regarding UAPs:
“We’re looking at USOs and UAPs, and this task force is set for six months—uniquely focused. I hope to establish a congressional delegation to a friendly nation that has an existing disclosure program. We also aim to investigate what the Pentagon may declassify. Secretary Rubio has been very supportive.”
She also expressed the hope of presenting this information to acknowledge, from a governmental standpoint, that “we are not alone.”
February 11 – Tuttle Capital Launches “UFO Disclosure Fund”
