Politician Tulsi Gabbard hints at the possibility of extraterrestrial life: "We're persistently pursuing the truth"
Tulsi Gabbard Believes in the Existence of Extraterrestrial Life and Promises Transparency on UFOs
Tulsi Gabbard, the Director of National Intelligence, has expressed her belief in the possibility of extraterrestrial life and pledged her office's commitment to seeking and sharing the truth about unidentified aerial phenomena (UAPs/UFOs) when appropriate.
During a recent interview with the New York Post's "Pod Force One" podcast, Gabbard answered affirmatively when asked if she believes aliens can exist. She emphasized the need for caution due to her access to classified material.
Gabbard stated that the intelligence community holds a significant amount of classified information related to UAPs and related incidents. She has promised transparency "when the time is right," but has not released new public evidence or specifics tied to that classified material.
The belief in extraterrestrial life and a commitment to transparency are not new for Gabbard. She has previously mentioned having "a lot of questions" about UFO sightings, not just in New Jersey, but in different parts of the country.
Recent years have seen increased attention from Congress and federal bodies towards UAPs. This includes the creation of offices and holding hearings aimed at improving reporting, investigation, and transparency on unexplained aerial phenomena.
One such incident that has raised questions is a series of mysterious drone sightings across New Jersey and other U.S. locations last year. While officials have said many such sightings likely involved known aircraft, questions remain, and some details are classified.
The push for transparency is not limited to Gabbard. Congressional activity, such as hearings, reports, and proposed legislation like UAP transparency measures, and government offices like the All-domain Anomaly Resolution Office established in the 2022 NDAA, reflect an ongoing institutional effort to catalog and analyze UAP reports.
However, Gabbard's statements do not provide new declassified evidence or definitive confirmation of extraterrestrial visitation. She has declined to divulge classified details. Media reports summarize her remarks but do not cite any newly released government documents proving alien origin for any observed phenomena.
Gabbard has also not disclosed more about the classified information in the U.S. intelligence community regarding a suspected Chinese spy balloon that was spotted flying over several states in 2023. The suspected balloon was shot down off the coast in Surfside Beach, South Carolina, after it had flown over much of the U.S. for about a week.
As the Director of National Intelligence, Tulsi Gabbard leads the intelligence community and has a unique perspective on the issue of UFOs. Her commitment to transparency and belief in the possibility of extraterrestrial life will be closely watched as the investigation into UAPs continues.
