Ross Coulthart Comes Clean About UFOs
UFOs, government secrets, and the pursuit of truth—these topics have fascinated and frustrated people for decades. Recently, the conversation has heated up even more, with live hearings, passionate congressional voices, and investigative journalists bringing the discussion to the mainstream. If you feel overwhelmed trying to make sense of it all, you’re not alone. Let’s break down the latest in the UFO world, why it matters, and what we can learn from the ongoing debate about secrecy and disclosure.
A New Wave of Transparency—Or Is It?
The anticipation is palpable as another congressional hearing on UFOs (now often referred to as UAPs: Unidentified Aerial Phenomena) is set to go live. People want answers, and prominent voices like Representative Eric Berles are demanding transparency: "Americans deserve honesty. That's why I'm working on UAP disclosure. The government shouldn't bury the truth any longer, and Congress must stand with transparency."
Berles, though, brings refreshing skepticism. He’s not quick to believe every story, even from self-proclaimed whistleblowers. As he puts it, being on an oversight committee means tackling all sorts of claims, and while he trusts that people are sincere in what they say, he doesn’t assume every account reflects the true reality just because the speaker believes it. This discerning attitude strikes a critical chord—there’s a line between open-mindedness and gullibility, and in the UFO discourse, we need more public figures willing to walk it.
Honest Skepticism: The Foundation for Real Progress
It's easy to get swept up in sensational stories, blurry videos, and tales of government conspiracies. But as Patrick from Vetted points out, the real danger comes when people intentionally mislead for personal or reputational gain. There's no harm in people sincerely sharing what they think is true. The issue arises when public discourse is muddied by those who know they’re spreading falsehoods.
That’s why Berles’ approach—open to testimony, but waiting for hard evidence before jumping to conclusions—is something everyone should emulate. We’re witnessing a rare moment in which political figures and citizens alike are wrestling with extraordinary claims and searching for a reliable standard of proof. If nothing else, this signals that skepticism and curiosity can and should coexist.
The Stargate Program: Truth, Secrecy, and the Power of Remote Viewing
Ross Coulthart, a journalist known for his deep dives into government secrecy, raised eyebrows once again by revisiting the US government’s Stargate program. This initiative, active in the 1970s and 80s, explored psychic phenomena—specifically remote viewing, or the ability to psychically "see" events at a distance. According to Coulthart and his sources, not only did Stargate yield credible results, but remote viewing remains in use by intelligence agencies today.
While skeptics may scoff, respected individuals like Russell Targ and Hal Puthoff (key figures from the program) back these claims, and even former President Carter reportedly declassified a case where remote viewing helped recover a Soviet aircraft. New research, mentioned by Dr. Julia Mossbridge and others, even suggests that telepathy could soon be proven in academic circles.
It begs the question—what else is happening beneath the surface that the public isn’t told? Is the intelligence community running operations so secret that not even their existence is officially acknowledged? Coulthart’s informants claim yes, and while we should keep our critical thinking caps on, it’s clear the UAP subject isn’t just about lights in the sky. It’s about the future of intelligence, the boundaries of human capability, and the willingness of institutions to face uncomfortable truths.
What’s Really Going On With the Tic Tac Video?
No discussion of modern UFOs would be complete without mentioning the infamous 2004 "Tic Tac" sighting by the USS Nimitz. Coulthart, referencing multiple independent sources, claims that this particular incident was a “blue-on-blue” test—essentially, Lockheed Martin was in some way controlling the object, and the event may have involved advanced, possibly even non-human technology operated by individuals with psychic abilities.
Importantly, Coulthart clarifies he doesn’t believe all Tic Tac sightings are explained by Lockheed Martin or other military contractors. Disinformation is rampant, intentionally sowed to confuse even diligent investigators. And even with sophisticated sources, the possibility of manipulation—"scoping"—looms large. Who stands to gain from feeding classified information to journalists, and why share secrets just discreetly enough to keep the public debating?
Government Stonewalling and Congressional Frustration
As the UFO hearing approaches, one of the main sticking points isn’t the stories themselves but the process. Multiple figures, including Anna Paulina Luna, have reported that the intelligence community is putting up roadblocks—delaying clearances, refusing to name authorizing entities, and impeding congressional access to key witnesses. Is this a cover-up, or just bureaucratic inertia?
Patrick and Ross Coulthart both note the oddity of these procedural hurdles, especially when clear answers should be straightforward. Is it simple red tape, or is the intelligence apparatus actively trying to suppress disclosure? When knowledgeable witnesses disappear from hearings or are blocked from testifying, the frustration only builds.
The Role of the Community: Asking the Right Questions
What truly sets this new UFO wave apart is the role of the broader community. Podcasts like Somewhere in the Skies and events like Anomicon, a virtual conference led by Ryan Sprague, are keeping the conversation alive, bringing together academics, scientists, entertainers, and enthusiasts. The driving force is ordinary people—investigators, commentators, and everyday witnesses—pushing for honest answers and refusing to settle for vague assurances.
The take-home message is clear: ask questions, engage with skepticism, and hold those in power accountable, whether they are in government or the media. As Patrick encourages, stay curious, stay involved, and don’t be afraid to demand the truth.
Conclusion: The Truth is a Shared Responsibility
The current moment in the UFO debate is less about proving aliens exist, and more about honesty, transparency, and critical thinking. As hearings unfold and new revelations come to light, we find ourselves at the intersection of wonder and skepticism.
Maybe the most powerful position isn’t blind belief or outright dismissal, but open-minded inquiry. Whether you tune into the next Congress hearing, dig into witness interviews, or just chat with friends about unexplained phenomena, remember: truth thrives where curiosity, caution, and community come together. Let’s keep asking questions, share what we know, and demand that those in power respect our right to honest answers. After all, the truth belongs to everyone.
