The Spin

The quest for UFO transparency reveals a troubling resistance to openness within the US government. Frustrated attempts at declassifying UAP records have left Americans in the dark. Decades of sightings, mysterious incidents, and even military encounters remain shrouded in secrecy. This refusal to disclose fuels speculation and mistrust. Transparency isn't just about UFOs—it's a gateway to greater government accountability.

Speculation about a Pentagon cover-up of alien spacecraft is not only baseless but often fueled by a small group of fervent believers, both within and outside government. Decades of investigation have found no evidence of extraterrestrial origins for UFO sightings. Instead, most cases stem from misidentified advanced technology, secret military projects, or civilian drones. Brush aside the rumors perpetuated by enthusiasts.
