about how we wish to be governed
[1:01:50 - 1:01:52] ▶
and how our government can better serve its people.
[1:01:52 - 1:01:55] ▶
and betray the public's trust.
[1:02:50 - 1:02:52] ▶
Targeting whistleblowers instead of the corruption they expose
[1:02:52 - 1:02:56] ▶
Mr. Borland, in your testimony,
[1:05:52 - 1:05:54] ▶
after you disclose this information to the intelligence community
[1:08:49 - 1:08:52] ▶
inspector general, you're subject to phishing attempts
[1:08:52 - 1:08:55] ▶
How were you treated?
[1:13:52 - 1:13:53] ▶
So they didn't come to you and say there was a technological error with what you were looking
[1:14:49 - 1:14:52] ▶
I got a call back in about 15 minutes.
[1:16:50 - 1:16:52] ▶
They reported that the weather station reported no balloons or aircraft, nothing on radar,
[1:16:52 - 1:16:59] ▶
It didn't look like a craft, but it did look solid.
[1:17:49 - 1:17:52] ▶
And that's what we talk about.
[1:17:52 - 1:17:54] ▶
Um, at that point, the only people that would be awake is us, those of us that were doing operations
[1:18:47 - 1:18:52] ▶
for the GWAT and then security forces.
[1:18:52 - 1:18:54] ▶
In my opinion, absolutely.
[1:21:51 - 1:21:52] ▶
What flew over Washington, D.C. in 52, is that ours, too?
[1:32:30 - 1:32:34] ▶
What happened to the Russians that came forward to you in 1993, and were there any repercussions for them?
[1:33:52 - 1:34:00] ▶
So, tactical action officer was there.
[1:37:50 - 1:37:52] ▶
Just for the sake of time, Mr. Nusatelli, has ARO, the Air Force, or the FBI ever followed up with you personally about the Red Square event?
[1:38:43 - 1:38:52] ▶
I did have follow-up by ARO.
[1:38:52 - 1:38:56] ▶
I see Matthew Brown in the audience.
[1:42:50 - 1:42:52] ▶
He courageously stepped forward and was as a witness.
[1:42:52 - 1:42:56] ▶
Jeremy Corbell and I talked about it in one of our episodes a while back.
[1:45:48 - 1:45:52] ▶
We did not have the video, though.
[1:45:52 - 1:45:53] ▶
I don't think I want to be really specific about it because I might have to go back there
[1:46:52 - 1:46:57] ▶
I now recognize Representative Lee for five minutes.
[1:49:52 - 1:49:56] ▶
of care that they deserve.
[1:51:50 - 1:51:52] ▶
It certainly prolonged serious illnesses, even contributing to hasten deaths.
[1:51:52 - 1:52:00] ▶
And we were able to help shed more light on that issue, which I think just emphasizes the importance, even outside
[1:52:00 - 1:52:13] ▶
of the national security context.
[1:52:13 - 1:52:15] ▶
We are often still talking about serious issues and even life and death concerns.
[1:52:15 - 1:52:20] ▶
And, unfortunately, whistleblowers can, whistleblowing can lead to serious repercussions and retaliation,
[1:52:20 - 1:52:27] ▶
especially in this vindictive and lawless administration.
[1:52:27 - 1:52:30] ▶
Mr. Spielberger, in the past, what kinds of retaliation have they faced and what are we seeing today under
[1:52:30 - 1:52:35] ▶
the Trump administration?
[1:52:35 - 1:52:37] ▶
Mr. Spielberger, in the past, what kind of retaliation have they faced?
[1:52:37 - 1:52:38] ▶
So, we've certainly heard about a number of different examples of retaliation.
[1:52:38 - 1:52:43] ▶
One that I'd like to highlight that Mr. Borland referenced previously is retaliation through abuse
[1:52:43 - 1:52:50] ▶
of the security clearance process.
[1:52:50 - 1:52:53] ▶
That can have grave implications not just for a whistleblower, but also their ability to seek
[1:52:53 - 1:52:57] ▶
legal counsel and defend themselves against retaliation.
[1:52:57 - 1:53:01] ▶
Thank you to the witnesses for appearing.
[1:55:49 - 1:55:52] ▶
In the effort of transparency here, I got to admit to the witnesses that, you know, growing
[1:55:52 - 1:55:58] ▶
What about you, Mr. Borland?
[1:56:50 - 1:56:52] ▶
I have always been open to where facts go, so.
[1:56:52 - 1:56:57] ▶
Mr. Borland, how about you?
[1:57:50 - 1:57:52] ▶
but he and I agree on this topic. He is sponsored in the Senate. He put it on the National Defense
[2:04:52 - 2:04:57] ▶
if they were associated. Chief Wiggins, how about you? Did anybody, was there an investigation? Was there
[2:11:46 - 2:11:52] ▶
an after action? Was there documentation on the incident that you were privy to? No, sir, not that I
[2:11:52 - 2:11:58] ▶
So, Madam Chair, thank you for letting me wave on. I think the key thing there you talked about was manipulation of message, manipulation of narrative. That is really the problem with this entire system that we've seen since you've started these wonderful hearings, Madam Chair, and I thank you so much.
[2:18:31 - 2:18:52] ▶
Thank you, Representative Biggs. The Chair would now like to recognize Mr. Begich for five minutes.
[2:18:52 - 2:19:00] ▶
Thanks for providing that.
[2:27:51 - 2:27:52] ▶
Curiosity comes to that.
[2:27:52 - 2:27:53] ▶
We were all in the same space, so we were all looking at the sapphire screen all at the
[2:28:48 - 2:28:52] ▶
When I first witnessed off the port bridge wing the object moving out of the water, what I thought was originally just a light on the water,
[2:30:42 - 2:30:52] ▶
something on the horizon, and surfacing and going into the air, I then knew it was an air contact.
[2:30:52 - 2:30:59] ▶
Thank you, Madam Chair. You know, at this point, I think it's clear from the hearing that there's advanced technologies that are taking place in our airspace.
[2:35:39 - 2:35:52] ▶
You know, the question is, and I posed it in one of the previous hearings, is that ours? Is it theirs? Or is it otherworldly?
[2:35:52 - 2:35:59] ▶
And I think this latest video from Mr. Burleson is something that should get everyone pause when you think when you see the three orbs that drop.
[2:37:43 - 2:37:52] ▶
Was that in a defensive posture or is that in an offensive posture?
[2:37:52 - 2:37:56] ▶
and changed their tune and not put things in writing, it spells it out pretty clearly.
[2:38:47 - 2:38:52] ▶
I'll go refer back to Russia. One incident I did not mention to Representative Burleson is there was Colonel Sokolov in that Ministry of Defense,
[2:38:52 - 2:39:01] ▶
I mean, Masson is back there.
[2:46:51 - 2:46:52] ▶
He's been pouring to try to get answers into this.
[2:46:52 - 2:46:55] ▶
Um, in closing, I want to thank our witnesses once again for their testimony today.
[2:47:52 - 2:47:56] ▶
Um, I now like to recognize myself for some closing remarks.
[2:48:49 - 2:48:52] ▶
Uh, this is obviously something that doesn't just affect everyone in this room.
[2:48:52 - 2:48:56] ▶
that they have been.
[2:49:51 - 2:49:52] ▶
Um, with that being said, with all that and without objection, all members have five legislative
[2:49:52 - 2:49:57] ▶
