Non-Human Technology Possessed By Private Military Contractors, Lawmakers Turn to Underwater UFOs, Ancient Indigenous Songlines
December 28, 2025

Since May of this year, Marco Rubio has served in a dual role as President Donald Trump’s National Security Advisor and Secretary of State. As such, it is significant that Rubio believes that elements within the US government have recovered technology from a nonhuman intelligence, reverse-engineered it, and let private military contractors take control of it in ways that could be undermining national security and result in a Pearl Harbor-like event. “The real risk in transferring technology that is not useful to us today to a corporate entity over decades,” says Rubio, “is that the corporate entity comes to basically possess and control access to it for their own purposes, not for the purposes of national security.” Rubio directly references aliens in the context of government secrecy. “I think there’s this assumption that presidents can walk into the Oval Office on day one and say, ‘All right, take me to Roswell. Show me the alien bodies.’ That really is a naive understanding of how our government works. Even presidents have often been operating on a need-to-know basis.” “We have people that have very high clearances,” said Rubio, “who have come forward with some claims about the US having in the past recovered exotic materials and then we reverse-engineered those materials to make advances in our own defenses and technologies. They signed agreements that they would face jail time, or [that] it would cost them their lives if they spoke out.”

As lawmakers hope President Donald Trump will join efforts to create more transparency around government information on UFOs, they are also turning their attention to strange sightings in and around the ocean. Rep. Tim Burchett, R-Tenn., is one of a bipartisan group of lawmakers pushing the Pentagon for more information on alleged secret programs regarding UFOs. Several high-profile whistleblowers have come forward with allegations of secret programs, recovered UFO technology, and even alleging the government has remains of non-human intelligence. He is concerned not just about unexplained objects in the air but also those in the ocean. Burchett pointed out that many UFO encounters pilots have reported have been over the deep oceans, and there have been reports of things diving into the water. Much of the world’s oceans remain unexplored, which Burchett noted would make an appealing location for any entity trying to go unnoticed. “You would go where you would be least disturbed,” he said. Burchett said Navy officials who have broached the subject with him suggested the existence of five or six underground bases. Burchett says he will be meeting with the president soon, and it is one subject he hopes to discuss. “It still just bothers me that our government won’t come forward with it,” Burchett said. “I am part of the government, and I don’t trust it. You have to ask yourself, why are we being told to keep quiet? Why the secrecy?”

A secret program, known as AAWSAP, was created in 2008 with support from Nevada Senator Harry Reid and became the largest UFO investigation ever undertaken by the U.S. Government. But the investigators for the program, all of whom had top-secret security clearances, encountered things that were far stranger than UFOs, phenomena that could be accurately described as “paranormal.” AAWSAP, which stands for Advanced Aerospace Weapon System Applications Program, [found] that these unknown craft, whatever they are, seem to generate spooky phenomena that seemingly shouldn’t exist. “We heavily went into Skinwalker Ranch, a property of Robert Bigelow’s,” [the program’s director Dr. James] Lacatski said. The main focus was UFOs and UFO technology, but one smaller focus was measurable health effects on people who encountered a UFO and were physically harmed, or developed rare diseases, including psychological effects. “People who openly say ‘I observed a UFO up close,’ ... always seemed to have a paranormal connection,” Lacatski said. Nearly everyone in AAWSAP who visited the Bigelow Ranch [experienced] what is now known as the hitchhiker effect. At least five highly experienced intelligence officers ... came into contact with paranormal phenomena, and then took it home with them. They and their families would see balls of light inside their homes, shadowy figures, even creatures that were physical.

UFO whistleblower David Grusch says President Donald Trump has been fully briefed on secret UFO programs and information about extraterrestrials. Grusch made headlines when he went public saying the Pentagon is operating a secret UFO retrieval program, something the Defense Department has denied. But Grusch’s statements prompted other whistleblowers to come forward and lawmakers in Congress to push for more transparency on the subject. Since he first spoke out, multiple hearings on UAPs have been held, and the Pentagon’s UAP office has had a shake-up in leadership. Those who have come forward with allegations about government programs have also said the U.S. has retrieved both technology and biological remains from nonhuman intelligence. However, no definitive proof has been provided to back up allegations the government is keeping the existence of aliens a secret. The White House, Pentagon and NASA have all said there is no evidence that UAPs, including sightings that remain unexplained, are extraterrestrial in nature. Grusch suggested that Trump could become an extremely consequential president by revealing information on UAPs and any government programs dedicated to them that might exist.

When a privacy specialist at the legal response operations center of Charter Communications received an emergency data request via email on September 4 from Officer Jason Corse of the Jacksonville Sheriff’s Office, it took her just minutes to respond, with the name, home address, phone numbers, and email address of the “target.” But the email had not in fact come from ... the Jacksonville Sheriff’s Office. It was sent by a member of a hacking group that provides doxing-as-a-service to customers willing to pay for highly sensitive personal data held by tech companies. Exempt, a member of the group that carried out the ploy ... claims that his group has been successful in extracting similar information from virtually every major US tech company, including Apple and Amazon, as well as more fringe platforms like video-sharing site Rumble. The Charter Communications incident was one of up to 500 successful requests Exempt claims to have made in recent years. Exempt also shared evidence suggesting that a current law enforcement officer ... was in contact with the group about allegedly working with them to submit requests from his own account in return for a cut of the profits. Exempt shared ... an example of a request he made to Apple using a fake subpoena as well as the information Apple sent back to him that included an iCloud account holder’s home address, cell phone number, and email addresses.

The idea of a “right to repair” — a requirement that companies facilitate consumers’ repairs, maintenance, and modification of products — is extremely popular, even winning broad, bipartisan support in Congress. That could not, however, save it from the military–industrial complex. Lobbyists succeeded in killing part of the National Defense Authorization Act that would have given service members the right to fix their equipment in the field without having to worry about military suppliers’ intellectual property. The decision to kill the popular proposal was made public Sunday after a closed-door conference of top congressional officials, including defense committee chairs. For the defense industry ... the proposal threatened a key profit stream. Once companies sell hardware and software to the Pentagon, they can keep making money by forcing the government to hire them for repairs. Defense lobbyists pushed back hard against the proposal when it arose in the military budgeting process. The CEO of the Aerospace Industries Association claimed that the legislation could “cripple the very innovation on which our warfighters rely.” The contractors’ argument was that inventors would not sell their products to the Pentagon if they knew they had to hand over their trade secrets as well. As a piece of legislation, the right to repair has likely died until next year’s defense budget bill process. The notion could be imposed in the form of internal Pentagon policies.

In 2011, the Army decided to get its soldiers new pistols. The Pentagon won’t complete delivery until 2027 at the earliest. The story of the Pentagon’s new pistols would be funny if it didn’t point to a serious problem at the heart of America’s military. The Department of Defense has built a gilded fortress of people and processes that is slow, wasteful and married to the past. Of all the obstacles to fielding the military that America needs, the Pentagon’s bureaucracy may be the hardest to overcome. The byzantine system for buying and testing weapons isolates the military from the innovative parts of the American economy. Congress underwrites the dysfunction with appropriations that are designed to deliver wins for its members rather than for America’s national security. As the House and Senate work toward the country’s first trillion-dollar defense budget, over $52 billion is for things members of Congress added, unbidden, to the Pentagon’s wish list, according to the independent budget watchdog Taxpayers for Common Sense. No one can keep track of where all the money goes. The Defense Department is the only major federal agency never to get a clean bill of health from outside accountants, and has failed its last seven audits in as many years. When the bean counters can follow the money, they often find it has been wasted. The system feeds on itself. Pentagon officials and congressional staff members have long migrated to the arms industry.

Politicians push government IDs. In a TSA announcement, Secretary of Homeland Security Kristi Noem sternly warns, "You will need a REAL ID to travel by air or visit federal buildings." European politicians go much further. They're pushing government-mandated digital IDs that tie your identity to nearly everything you do. The second richest man in the world, Oracle founder Larry Ellison, says, "Citizens will be on their best behavior because we're constantly recording and reporting everything." That's a good thing? "That is a recipe for disaster and totalitarianism," says privacy specialist Naomi Brockwell. "Privacy is not about hiding. It's about an individual's right to decide for themselves who gets access to their data. A digital ID will strip individuals of that choice." "I already have a government-issued ID," says Tokarev. "Why is a digital one worse?" "It connects everything," says Brockwell. "Your financial decisions, social media posts, your likes, things that you're watching, places you're going. You won't be able to voice things anonymously online anymore. Everything you say will be tied back to who you are." Even without a digital ID, Canada froze the bank accounts of truckers who protested COVID-19 vaccine mandates. With a digital ID, politicians could do that much more easily. "It makes you super easy to target," says Brockwell, "easy to silence if suddenly you become 'problematic.' Whoever controls that data has a lot of power. We're simply handing it to them."

When marine geologist Mick O’Leary showed a group of Australian First Nations Elders a digital model of two ancient watering holes he had recently located—now under 14 meters of ocean—one man perked up, struggled to his feet and began speaking excitedly. Timmy Douglas, had recognized the watering holes as part of a songline he’d known all his life. Songlines involve using dramatic story songs that First Nations people began creating long before the written word as a mnemonic and spiritual system to navigate Australia’s harsh terrain: they would do so by singing the songs as they walked across the land. These songs, which also define groups and laws and impart cultural values, have been passed down from one generation to the next over thousands of years. The connection of the songline to a recent and remarkable archeological find by O’Leary and his colleagues illustrates how First Nations groups and modern scientists are learning to work together—in this case to find evidence of the ancient humans who lived on land that is now underwater, what the Murujuga Elders call “Sea Country.” Such evidence now includes stone tools that the scientists found last year on the ocean floor near the submerged watering holes. O’Leary says that although the research team did not physically follow the songline to make its discovery, he thinks that kind of collaboration might happen in the near future.

Reducing stress and softening the sharper edges of anxiety in this way are beginners’ steps when it comes to the practice of meditation. Put in the hours, though, and you may well reach the deep end: a place where radical, long-lasting upgrades to how you feel and what you experience are possible. Now, these mental transformations are being examined and understood by neuroscientists at world-leading institutions. Matthew Sacchet [is the] director of the Meditation Research Program at Harvard Medical School. His team works hand in hand with advanced meditators, such as Buddhist monks, exploring how the material brain changes because of subjective experiences that are often considered spiritual in nature. Using state-of-the-art brain scanners, his team pinpoints the neural changes that occur across a variety of deep meditative practices. Beyond mindfulness-related stress reduction, advanced practitioners report experiences of ecstatic bliss, deep insights into their own minds, radical compassionate states and prosocial ways of being, and even shifts in their fundamental sense of self. Advanced meditators sometimes report states of consciousness that are described as deeply peaceful, mentally clear or subjectively non-dual – meaning there is no perceived distinction between self and other. These aren’t just subjective reports: we observe changes in the brain that support their existence.

Dr. Ian Stevenson [was the] director of the Division of Perceptual Studies, or DOPS, a parapsychology research unit he founded in 1967 within the University of Virginia’s school of medicine. The survival of consciousness after death continues to be at the forefront of the division’s research. The team has logged hundreds of cases of children who claim to remember past lives. DOPS is a curious institution. There are only a few other labs in the world undertaking similar lines of research. The only other major parapsychology unit in the United States was Princeton’s Engineering Anomalies Research Laboratory, or PEAR, which focused on telekinesis and extrasensory perception. That unit was shuttered in 2007. Common features in children who claim to have led a previous life include a verbal precocity and mannerisms at odds with that of the rest of the family. Unexplained phobias or aversions have also been thought to have been transferred over from a past existence. In some cases, extreme clarity besets the remembrances: the names, professions and quirks of a different set of relatives, or the particularities of the streets they used to live on and sometimes even recalling obscure historical events — details the child couldn’t possibly have known. The strongest cases, according to the DOPS researchers, have been found in children under the age of 10, and the majority of remembrances tend to occur between the ages of 2 and 6, after which they appear to fade.

Ten days after 9/11, Rais Bhuiyan was shot at point blank range by a white supremacist. The near-death experience inspired him to set up World Without Hate, dedicated to breaking the cycles of violence. "As a result of the shooting, I ... lost my home, my job, my sense of security and my fiance," [said Bhuiyan]. "I focused on rebuilding my life slowly getting into restaurant working as a waiter. Many kind and caring Americans came forward to help redo my life. Forgiving my attacker was a multiple-step process. I realized by executing him we were simply losing human life without dealing with the root cause. I began to see him as a human being like me, not just as a killer. And I remember what it feels like to be on the brink the death, begging to God for a second chance. I learned about the verse in the Holy Koran chapter 5, verse 32 where it says that saving a life is like saving the entire mankind and taking a life is like taking the life of entire mankind. I was extremely convinced I needed to go the extra mile to save the life of the man. When we launched our global campaign to save the life of my attacker he heard from his lawyer that’s one of his victims was running a campaign to save his life. And he told his lawyer, I do not believe it, I never said sorry, I never apologized and destroyed their lives, especially his life, and now he forgave me and is running a campaign to save my life, he was released to tears, he said I don’t deserve that, I’m someone unforgivable. He wrote a letter to me from death row and in one paragraph this is what he said, that my stepfather taught me some lessons that I should have never learned. So when he learned about our campaign he went to tremendous transformation and talked about world peace, mercy, justice, peace, hate crimes and how he was wrong, what went wrong in his life, and how he ended up killing people. He was in peace before he was executed."
