👤 Mr. Alzando's Opening Statement: Greetings to Chairwoman Mace, Chairman Gothman, Ranking Members Connelly and Garcia, and members of the committee. It is an honor to testify on unidentified anomalous phenomena (UAP), formerly known as UFOs, on behalf of our military and intelligence community.

🌍 UAP Monitoring: UAP or advanced technologies not made by our government are monitoring sensitive military installations globally. The US possesses UAP technologies, as do some adversaries, indicating a multi-decade secretive arms race.

🔒 Secrecy and Accountability: Excessive secrecy has led to grave misdeeds against loyal civil servants and military personnel. A small cadre within the government has created a culture of suppression, including unwarranted investigations and harassment.

📜 Proposed Actions: 1. Create a single point of contact for a whole-of-government approach to UAP issues. 2. Develop a national UAP strategy to promote transparency and restore public trust. 3. Establish a protected environment for whistleblowers to come forward without fear of retaliation.

🚀 Call to Action: We need immediate public transparency regarding UAPs. This hearing is a crucial step towards restoring faith in government institutions and scientific discovery.

👥 Mr. Shellenberger's Remarks: Thank you for the opportunity to testify. Congress must oversee the executive branch, especially regarding UAPs. There is evidence that the government is not being transparent about UAPs, violating its constitutional duty to inform Congress.

🔍 Whistleblower Reports: Current and former officials have claimed that the Pentagon has not revealed significant information about UAPs, including military intelligence databases. A whistleblower has reported that the executive branch has managed UAP issues without Congressional oversight for decades.

📊 UAP Database: The military and intelligence community's database includes videos and images of UAPs, with various shapes reported, such as spheres, discs, and triangles.

📉 Government Transparency Issues: The government has increasingly denied requests for UAP information, leading to concerns about censorship and redaction of documents.

🕵️‍♂️ Conclusion: The Pentagon and intelligence community must stop treating the public like children. It is time for the truth about UAPs to be revealed.
