This past week in Disclosure:

Released through a Canadian freedom of information request, an image of the unidentified object shot down over Canada's Yukon territory in February 2023 has been obtained by CTV News.

Sep 27 – Rep. Nancy Mace previews the upcoming UAP Hearing in US Congress

Speaking to Askapol regarding the upcoming House UAP Hearing in November, Rep. Mace (who will chair the hearing) shared:

“I wanted to have a military vet. I think it's important to have more than just academics. I need people who’ve maybe seen some sh\t and can tell us some stuff. […] I want people who've actually seen and heard and read. Like, it's just important. So, I moved the dates back…”*

Sep 27 – Japan elects a new prime minister, who sits on UFO study group

Sep 28 – former presidential advisor shares his thoughts on NHI technology recovery

Harald Malmgren, a former advisor to Presidents Kennedy, Johnson, Nixon and Ford as well as many global leaders, shared his view on on recovered NHI tech:

"You asked "is there actual recovered NHI tech?" The answer is yes, in several different hands, both government and private hands. For example, knowing such technology has enabled planning for moon to Mars transportation in days, not years. Don't ask me who has such tech."

Things to look out for in the near future:

September/October/November

• According to Senator Gillibrand – a public hearing in line with AARO's latest report can be expected soon, saying –"I’m hoping July, and if not then September. But I’m trying to do July.” This has more recently been confirmed to be happening in November.
• Speaking with Askapol, Reps. Luna and Burchett indicated that the next UAP hearing is likely to come after the August recess. More recently, this UAP hearing has been penciled in for November 13th.

Beyond/currently unknown

• Following the UAP hearing on the 26th of July, Members of Congress have called for a select committee with subpoena authority, to “go about the task of collecting information from the Pentagon and elsewhere” on unidentified flying objects. There have been conflicting messages from various Members of Congress on whether this is likely to happen anytime soon. Note – a select subcommittee was formally requested on March 13th.
• Reps. Moskowitz, Luna, and Burchett have repeatedly stated their intent to hold field hearings to overcome stonewalling from the Pentagon and military establishment "I think we [Congress] should try to get into one of these places [housing UAP evidence]…and if they won't let us in I think we should have a field hearing right outside the building…and the military will have to explain why that is." – Rep. Moskowitz (D) It is currently unknown when exactly we might expect that to occur, however as of Jan 12 – Rep. Luna confirmed: "I feel confident that we have enough evidence to move forward with our first field hearing. We will be announcing details soon."
• Several journalists have indicated that first-hand witnesses of the alleged UAP legacy programs are in the process of providing testimony/evidence to the relevant authorities (e.g. the IC IG) and/or are on the verge of making public statements in the near future (Example 1, example 2, example 3, example 4)
• David Grusch has received additional clearances through DOPSR to discuss some of his (alleged) first-hand knowledge of Legacy programs. He has mentioned he may be covering more of this information in an upcoming Op-Ed
