- u/StatementBot: The following submission statement was provided by /u/KOOKOOOOM : UFO documentarian Mr. James Fox on June 12th, 2026: “The argument we were making, and this is Leslie and myself, was look we understand the justification for secrecy on the technology because whether you believe it or not, if the allegations are true, and of course I’m convinced they are, that we have recovered highly advanced technology of non-human origin, then if it falls into the wrong hands that technology can be weaponized. You remember what Dave Fravor had talked about, this tic tac, no wings, no visible means of propulsion, flew rings around our fastest jets. You put a nuke on that and it’s game over for us, right? So, you can imagine like if that’s true, the justification for secrecy it’s a national security issue, right? So, I was making this argument with Leslie when we were meeting with members of Congress. We were mapping out our press conference. I said, ‘But like the nonhuman… Like I don’t want to use the word alien, but nonhuman sentient beings. That should be a right for everyone to know. That evidence should be disclosed.’ And everyone’s like, ‘Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. I agree.’ And then what Mr. Grusch revealed to all of us, what he had seen with his own eyes left the room speechless. It drew the oxygen out of the room. I looked at everybody in that room and their eyeballs were popping out. My jaw was on the floor. Like, I simply couldn’t believe what he’d seen with his own eyes. Like, I can’t wait for it to come out. So, I asked Mr. Grusch today, can I talk about what I heard? And he’s like, ‘No, but I will be addressing it very soon.’ So, that’s where we stand right now. But I can tell you, Mr. Grusch has seen evidence that will leave you slack jawed when you hear it.” […] Interviewer Mr. Clayton Morris: ”Who’s preventing David Grusch from telling us this stuff? That’s the most frustrating part of this.” Mr. Fox: ”Mr. Grusch is legitimately concerned about his personal safety. He’s coming out with it. I promise you this is coming out. He assured me today that he will address this issue to the general public very soon in the near future. So I can’t speak to what he’s going to say, but I’m just telling you from what I heard out of his mouth sitting in an office of a member of Congress, and everybody in the room, you could have heard a pin drop.” Mr. Morris: “Can you give us a hint? Is it related to craft? Can you maybe dance around it a little bit?” Mr. Fox: “If you know about Moment of Contact that involves captured nonhuman intelligent beings. Just think about that for a minute. Think about that case.” Please reply to OP’s comment here: https://old.reddit.com/r/UFOs/comments/1u6zucd/documentarian_james_fox_on_ufo_whistleblower/orwk4ya/
- u/Conscious_Walk_4304: It’s very obvious that he’s suggesting grusch saw an slien live interview.
- u/GodzillaVsTomServo: Was this interview recorded before or after the June 9th press conference? I’m curious if the “He’s coming out with it. I promise you this is coming out. He assured me today that he will address this issue to the general public very soon in the near future” refers to the June 9th statements he made, or if it refers to new information.
- u/No_Development7388: He’s seen, “with his own eyes,” photographs and documents, apparently. Just think about that before becoming too excited.
I don’t mean to dismiss Grusch out of hand. Far from it. But it behooves these people to be very careful with their statements.
- u/crown_recluse: Why did I read this in Jeremy Corbell’s voice? “Behooves” and twenty pregnant pauses lol, you stroking your beard over there?
- u/Panzerbjorne80: Grusch said himself under oath that’s he’s not a first hand witness to any of it. So, now he is?
- u/FaithfulTBM: He has seen videos of recovered craft and non human biologics according to the video. It helps to watch and listen before commenting and swaying narrative.
- u/Jim_kingwood: Sorry. Videos. I don’t remember his saying that during his testimony time. To my recollection, he said or implied that his knowledge came from his interviews with other people. Is that not correct?
- u/BussMuhGun: The thing is, none of these people who have come out recently are “whistleblowers”. They have given no solid ground- breaking evidence to say they blew the whistle on anything. A lot of “I’ve seen but can’t tell you or show you” and not enough “this is what happened, here’s the video”.
So to me, the hate is warranted. If you want humanity to know so bad, do what it takes then.
- u/EinSofOhr: whistleblower is about aledging illegal work, don’t make up your definition, alot of people equating it with giving evidence, look on the dictionary. Whistleblowing: The disclosure to the public or to authorities, such as by an employee, of wrongdoing. This is why Grusch is whistleblower while Elizondo is not.
- u/Willing_Benefit_3427: Yet for some reason, the 3 film makers are exempt. Apparently they can know and see what we can’t. I’m sure that’s part of Grusch’s etc NDAs right? Not allowed to discuss this world changing secret with anyone except film makers and podcasters.
- u/Panzerbjorne80: Yeah I don’t watch these trash videos but the post title implies “he saw something with his own eyes” which means he saw it first hand in person. If not, it’s a really shady and misleading way to say “grusch watched some videos” with his own eyes? Nobody says that.
- u/znebsays: Lots of these Redditors lately spewing out of the woodworks
- u/NanoSexBee: The absolute vicious and ugly comments are a little shocking to see. I was just on another sub and on another thread there, the comments were… not even “you’d think you guys don’t like this subject” but straight up vitriol towards Grusch. Incredibly obvious what’s going on. This place is done, been done.
- u/Jim_kingwood: There are valid questions to be asked. It’s not all adding up for a lot of people.
- u/Lucky_Guess77: It’s a dissuasion/discredit campaign against the public. They need to find who gave orders to deploy AI bots on social media to psychologically manipulate the public… INTERROGATE THEM AND HOLD THEM ACCOUNTABLE! ALL OF THEM! To the fullest extent of the laws they operate under and follow (which is none).
- u/NanoSexBee: The absolute vicious and ugly comments are a little shocking to see. I was just on another sub and on another thread there, the comments were… not even “you’d think you guys don’t like this subject” but straight up vitriol towards Grusch. Incredibly obvious what’s going on. This place is done, been done.
- u/I_am___The_Botman: Both those things can be true, he may have see videos and not had first hand experience.
- u/Jim_kingwood: But that’s……still threading the line a little close, isn’t it? I mean, if during his testimony he had said that he’d seen videos of these things…..could these hearings have taken a different turn? Not sure I’m buying it. Edit: by which I mean, it’s all not adding up.
- u/GetServed17: He’s said he’s seen photographs and documents under oath, that’s not being a first hand witness. What he’s saying here also isn’t being a first hand witness.
- u/StrDstChsr34: So you’re saying that anytime after he said that he’s not a first hand witness, it’s impossible for him to become one?
- u/Panzerbjorne80: Yes because he’s not been in any new position that would allow such to happen. He’s not going to be introduced in person to crafts or biologics at this point in his career and what he’s pushing with disclosure.
- u/WareThunder: But what if the NHI showed up at his cookout?
- u/Panzerbjorne80: Yes because he’s not been in any new position that would allow such to happen. He’s not going to be introduced in person to crafts or biologics at this point in his career and what he’s pushing with disclosure.
- u/FaithfulTBM: He has seen videos of recovered craft and non human biologics according to the video. It helps to watch and listen before commenting and swaying narrative.
- u/semidivineone: Very coordinated movements of all this. Keep asking questions and don’t be told what to believe.
- u/MegaDriveCDX: Yeah, ya’ll ain’t doing any critical thinking here.
- u/KOOKOOOOM: UFO documentarian Mr. James Fox on June 12th, 2026:

- u/Remarkable-Band-8597: Isn’t the tic tac widely believed to be a Lockheed Martin creation?
- u/whoa_itsanavalanche: …no
- u/Sea_Perspective6891: From what I’ve heard it’s Tall White tech but Lockheed got to work on them.
- u/Remarkable-Band-8597: Isn’t the tic tac widely believed to be a Lockheed Martin creation?
- u/YourMomGoesToReddit: Ah, yes. “Very soon”. “Near future”. Who could have guessed?
- u/cram213: What he “told” a room what he had seen with his own eyes left the room speechless.
Until chants of “buuuuull shiiiit” echoed through the room and chased him off the stage.
- u/Lucky_Guess77: Don’t think so.
- u/Observer414: Haha 🤣
- u/FromDeletion: Thanks for the chuckle.
- u/Um3xx: Yeah, I can also make a room full of people speechless real quick, but we have a thing called hr.

- u/Blackoldsun19: You’d think after hyping the movie Disclosure for 6 months and then having it basically be nothing but chase scenes with no real ending, that people would get wise to this unending string of disappointments. Nope. A week after that movie starts to lose interest, here comes another guy to hype everyone up again because he says he has something new to tell everyone. Gets old mate.
- u/photon_runner: “…if the allegations are true, and of course I’m convinced they are, that we have recovered highly advanced technology of non-human origin, then if it falls into the wrong hands that technology can be weaponized.” Oh yeah, James, because I’m sure the United States government has benevolent intentions with new technology.
- u/DasBarenJager: Proof or it didn’t happen
- u/MissingPieces555: Sounds like more of the same old— I heard it from a friend bs to me
- u/SagittariusWells: Beings that are so technologically advanced and secretive that every so often they crash their ships,allow themselves to be captured and also light their crafts up like Madison Square Garden at night so no one will find out about them.🤔
- u/NateBerukAnjing: grusch said we’ll see the alien crash photos in the next drop, aren’t you guys excited
- u/FaithfulTBM: No he did not say that.
- u/GetServed17: He definitely did not see that, he said it’s possible that this admin could release some of the info he saw in one of these batches. Which I would think would be in the far future.
- u/Quirky-Specialist-70: Yes. If it happens!
- u/CongratsGuy: That ship in the picture. Is there a name for it?
- u/Carbon_is_Neat: A flare.
- u/passyourownbutter: The “chandelier” UAP There are good arguments for it to probably be an artifact of the IR camera system that captured it. The video possibly shows a flare with a parachute which explains a bright hot light source producing said artifact.
- u/silv3rbull8: I just hope that something does shift the needle forward .. so far it has not budged
- u/Willing_Benefit_3427: Is it that difficult to say what he saw without giving fucking hints? God these guys are having the time of their lives acting like there are so special and important
