Vetted: The UFO Sleuth

Episode: "Ross Coulthart Drops Massive UFO Bombshell"

Date: August 10, 2026
Host: Patrick Scott Armstrong
Guest: Ross Coulthart

Brief Overview

This episode dives into explosive claims by investigative journalist Ross Coulthart regarding secret U.S. government efforts to intercept, shoot down, and retrieve UAPs (unidentified aerial phenomena/UFOs). Coulthart alleges a covert military program operating under President Trump’s direct authorization, targeting non-human intelligence (NHI) craft—an effort separate from the long-rumored "legacy" UFO programs. The episode also explores the mysterious fate of the public UAP research group “Sky Watcher,” which allegedly became entangled with federal agencies and may now be working behind the scenes for the government. Patrick dissects these revelations, questioning motivations, evidence, and implications for transparency and national security.

Key Discussion Points & Insights

1. The El Paso Airspace Shutdown: Official Narrative vs. Coulthart's Sources

• Official Account:
  • In February 2026, the FAA abruptly closed El Paso, Texas airspace, reportedly due to cartel drones or a misidentified party balloon.
  • Top officials, including Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy, publicized that the "threat was neutralized."
  • (13:14-15:13, 15:23-15:58)
• Coulthart’s Claims:
  • The shutdown was a cover for a covert military UAP intercept operation, using advanced directed energy weapons to summon and shoot down exotic craft.
  • The event was not triggered by cartel-related drone activity nor a party balloon, but by truly "anomalous" craft.
  • (00:52-03:59, 12:39-14:48, 28:42-29:04)

Quote:

• "You do not shut down a very busy city in America just because a cartel drone or a balloon floats into the airspace. Doesn't make sense. The bigger explanation...they have been using these weapons to try to shoot down NHI technology." — Ross Coulthart (33:44)

---

2. Secret Military Initiatives: Trump’s Direct Involvement

• Coulthart says President Trump personally authorized a secret UAP crash retrieval program, circumventing the existing "legacy" UFO cover-up operations handled by entrenched intelligence "gatekeepers."
• New program uses high pulse microwave (HPM) weapons from White Sands Missile Range to disable and potentially recover UAPs, with Trump's chosen Secretary of War overseeing operations.
• The Office of the Director of National Intelligence (ODNI) is involved; there’s a rift between the parallel new initiative and the traditional secret-keepers.
• (00:52-03:59, 10:33-11:49, 19:29-22:45, 25:26-26:32)

Quote:

• "There is a full-on effort underway by the administration to recover suspected non-human intelligence exotic technology in a program totally separate from the so-called legacy program. This is an attempt by the President to circumvent the Legacy Program." — Ross Coulthart (20:49)

---

3. The Fate of Sky Watcher: Co-option & Government Secrecy

• Sky Watcher, once an independent citizen-science group promising full UAP disclosure, stopped public operations after July 2025.
• Coulthart suggests Sky Watcher’s members began cooperating with NASA, the DoD, CIA, and other agencies, eventually becoming absorbed into covert government efforts.
• Their field techniques (use of “dog whistles” and “psionic summoning”) are now reportedly used in classified operations.
• (07:30-08:13, 08:13-10:33, 16:14-18:39)

Quote:

• "Multiple insiders have told me by the time of that last July field operation, Sky Watcher was actually working with and reporting to a number of government agencies...There is no doubt that what Skywatcher has discovered and recorded was and is of huge interest to the intelligence community." — Ross Coulthart (08:13)

• On why Sky Watcher agreed to partner:

  • "That's a good question. I can't speak for Sky Watcher, but I suspect they had no choice." — Ross Coulthart (29:44)

---

4. Collateral Damage: Civilian Aircraft Incidentally Downed

• Coulthart claims sources have told him that during some UAP shoot-down missions, directed energy weapons have accidentally caused civilian aircraft to crash.
• Notably, a medevac plane was allegedly downed near White Sands, with four fatalities.
• Raises ethical and safety questions about these operations.
• (00:52-03:59, 31:19-33:42, 33:44)

Quote:

• "I'm told from my own sources that there have been craft incidentally brought down, civilian aircraft brought down as an accident by high pulse microwaves during legacy operations..." — Ross Coulthart (31:19)

---

5. Transparency, Evidence, and the Disclosure Dilemma

• Patrick and listeners express skepticism due to a lack of hard evidence (“where’s the craft?”).
• Repeatedly, Ross says he can’t reveal sources or locations due to national security.
• Both question whether current government disclosure efforts are sincere, acknowledging ongoing compartmentalization and possibly deliberate obfuscation by officials and Congress.
• (17:39-19:11, 26:32-27:55, 35:25-36:10, 36:16-37:15)

Quote:

• "At the end of the day, we just want evidence for the claims. You downed a craft, let's see it...If not, we're just telling stories here." — Patrick (30:13)

Quote:

• "There are a lot of people playing double games right now claiming to be pro disclosure, especially in Congress, and frankly, they're bull." — Ross Coulthart (35:25)

---

6. Speculation, Foreign Drones, and the Nature of the Anomalies

• Some in military/intelligence circles maintain the objects could be Chinese or foreign drones, but Coulthart asserts observed capabilities far exceed known tech — e.g., advanced stealth, no visible means of propulsion.
• The episode highlights uncertainty and risk: If these are truly non-human, what are the consequences of aggressive action?
• (25:26-26:32, 39:05-39:57)

Quote:

• "If there's a possibility that there is a biological entity on board those craft...what does it say about our potential first contact...that we're acting offensively against them?" — Ross Coulthart (39:05)

---

Notable Quotes: (with Timestamps)

• "I've spoken to people in the Trump administration and people who are part of the ongoing military operation that I'm going to tell you about for the very first time today." — Ross Coulthart (00:52)
• "It's being considered as a possibility. I'm told that some of these objects may be Chinese or other foreign adversary drones...But what is being detected is without doubt far beyond any known conventional human technology." — Ross Coulthart (25:26)
• "If the President intends to disclose to the public what they're discovering over at White Sands, then this is potentially a huge development for UAP disclosure. But what he plans to do with the information he gets and the exotic technology he recovers is not yet clear." — Ross Coulthart (27:11)
• "The simple fact is there are a lot of people playing double games right now claiming to be pro disclosure, especially in Congress, and frankly, they're bull." — Ross Coulthart (35:25)
• "We now know that a weapon used by the White Sands Missile Range accidentally caused the deaths of four people in a medevac aircraft. Now, we don't know for sure that that was connected to the covert operation that I'm describing, but we do know that very dangerous weapons are being used..." — Ross Coulthart (33:44)

Tone and Flow

Patrick’s tone is skeptical but open, voicing both intrigue and frustration at the continued secrecy and lack of tangible evidence. Ross is matter-of-fact, careful to note when claims are from unnamed but "rock solid" sources, and exudes urgency and caution regarding government misinformation and the ethical stakes.

---

Conclusions and Open Questions

• Is there a presidentially-authorized UAP retrieval program running parallel to entrenched legacy operations, as Ross claims?
• Was Sky Watcher “absorbed” into secret military work, effectively ending its public mission?
• Are advanced weapons being used on U.S. soil for UAP shoot-downs, risking civilian lives in the process?
• Will any concrete evidence (craft, footage, documents) ever reach the public, or will the cycle of secrecy persist?

What's up Vetters? Patrick here with Vetted. Today we're talking about this.

[Ross Coulthard]

And I'm told, I'm told, I'm told. I am also told I've spoken to people in the Trump administration and people who are part of the ongoing military operation that I'm going to tell you about for the very first time today. So one of the questions we get asked the most on Reality Check is what happened to Sky Watcher? And it all starts with an official government lie put out in February this year when airspace over El Paso, Texas, the airport was hurriedly shut down. But we do know that very dangerous weapons are being used, which is why they shut down the El Paso airspace. The real story is that they have been using these weapons to try to shoot down NHI technology. The United States government in a joint operation with multiple intelligence and defence agencies has been using these airspace shutdowns, these TFRs, to do its own UAP intercept operations. Yes, they have been summoning, detecting and yes, shooting down what we some call drones, others UAPs. I'm told from my own sources that there have been craft incidentally brought down, civilian aircraft brought down as an accident by high pulse microwaves during legacy operations that have taken place in other parts of the United States and targeting UAP craft. I am also told by White House sources that President Trump has personally authorised this operation. There is a full on effort underway by the administration to recover suspected non human intelligence exotic technology in a program totally separate from the so called legacy program. This is an attempt by the President to circumvent the Legacy Program. Understandably, the President wants the US to have and to know all about these exotic technologies. But is he being told the full story by those he trusts to keep him briefed? I'm told he's not. The Department of War has quite literally taken on the running of its own covert operation to intercept these mystery objects and I'm told they have recently downed objects craft Both in the US and across the border near Juarez in Mexico.

Today's video is about Ross Coulthard and some comments he recently made on News Nation about the American government and specifically Donald Trump being behind this sort of secret program to sort of go around the legacy program, Right? So they started their own program to allegedly summon in UFOs, shoot them down, collect them, retrieve them, all of that. There's some crazy stuff here to talk about, so let's jump into it. Oh, as well as what happened to Sky Watcher, Right. A lot of people have been asking, what happened to Sky Watcher? Well, Ross has an interesting explanation.

[Ross Coulthard]

So one of the questions we get asked the most on Reality Check is what happened to Sky Watcher? The UAP investigation group founded. Co founded by Jake Barber, James Fowler and financier Alex Clocus.

[Patrick (Vetted Host)]

So again, like I said, a lot of people have always asked, what happened to Skywatcher? Myself included. I tried to film with them last year for my documentary Psionics, which you can check out at Psionics Film. And we've all been wondering because I made some big promises when they came out in January of last year, January of 2025. Big promises, full disclosure, right? So, yeah, whatever happened to Skywatcher?

[Ross Coulthard]

But it's a year on and there's been nothing new posted about what they've been up to. So what's really going on? This is quite a story. I understand there's been no Sky Watcher field operations since July last year. And I've been trying to find out why, because more were meant to be happening. Multiple insiders have told me by the time of that last July field operation, Skywatcher was actually working with and reporting to a number of government agencies and including NASA, the Department of Defence, and several intelligence agencies, including the CIA, the Central Intelligence Agency. There is no doubt that what Skywatcher has discovered and recorded was and is of huge interest to the intelligence community and the Defense Department. The inevitable suspicion is that at the very moment Sky Watcher announced that it had made a momentous scientific breakthrough, was it gagged by the very group of government insiders and private aerospace insiders alleged to be guarding UAP secrets from public knowledge? Did Skywatcher get shut down by the legacy gatekeepers?

[Patrick (Vetted Host)]

So this is basically what Ross is theorizing here, right. According to his sources. Right. As he's been told.

[Ross Coulthard]

And I'm told, I'm told, I'm told.

[Patrick (Vetted Host)]

I am also told that Skywatcher essentially had something happen out in the field, right? Captured a UFO or something, or caught it on film, Something along those lines. Right. There was that rumor floating around, starting on my channel while filming Psionics, I was told that that Skywatcher had landed a craft. Right, with NASA present. So did that event or some other similar event caused the US Government to then shut down Sky Watcher and sort of bring them in? That's essentially what Ross is saying here, right? Like they discovered something, government came in, shut them down. Is that what's going on? I don't know. Let me know what you think in the comments.

[Ross Coulthard]

The truth, as best as I've been able to determine it in my research over the last few weeks, is quite shockingly different. And it puts a whole different context to the spin we're getting from the Department of War's so called Pursue Releases, the UAP disclosure initiative launched by President Trump in May to declassify military and historical records on UAPs. After four fairly dull tranches of heavily redacted, often very blurry, and frankly, often very underwhelming UAP videos, I can assure you President Trump is most definitely not revealing all he knows. I can't name my sources for what I'm telling you about today, but I'm very sure they're rock solid. I've spoken to people in the Trump administration and people who are part of the ongoing military operation that I'm going to tell you about for the very first time today.

[Patrick (Vetted Host)]

And this is where it gets interesting for Ross, Right? This entire episode is dedicated to this, by the way, right? What happened to Skywatcher and then these other events that happened that sort of uncover all kinds of crazy things. Right? So essentially what we're going to get into at this point is that Ross is going to explain that again, Sky Watcher went away, but not for any reason, you may think, right, that they discovered something, government sort of brought him in, and that Sky Watcher has been performing experiments behind the scenes and so has the government. Right? And then Ross is going to talk about a shutdown at the El Paso airport which led to all planes grounded, Right. Shutting down the airspace in El Paso. Ross is saying there's, you know, something more to it.

[Ross Coulthard]

And it all starts with an official government lie put out in February this year when airspace over El Paso, Texas, the airport was hurriedly shut down.

[Patrick (Vetted Host)]

This event apparently caused a lot of mayhem. You know, the official story is they shot down a balloon, but it turns out it was something more. Right. As Ross is going to explain. And again, if you're not familiar with those events that happen in El Paso, Ross kind of breaks down the official narrative that came out.

[Ross Coulthard]

Six months ago, February this year, an object or objects of some kind were detected over El Paso Airport in Southern Texas near the Mexican border. At 11:30pm or thereabouts. On the 10th of February, the Federal Aviation Administration dramatically closed the airspace over El Paso. Without any or adequate warning to government

[Patrick (Vetted Host)]

agencies, the airport's airspace suddenly shut down at the time they said for 10 days.

[Ross Coulthard]

The public was initially told that Mexican organised crime cartel drones were breaching the airspace with their drones. And with next to no notice to local authorities, the FAA shut a massive area over El Paso for what they said would be a 10 day shutdown. You cannot restrict airspace over a major city without coordinating with the city, the airport, the hospitals, the community leadership. That failure to communicate is unacceptable. As the New York Times reported, top administration officials quickly claimed that the closure was in response to a sudden incursion of drones from Mexican drug cartels requiring a military response. Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy tweeted, the threat has been neutralised. This cartel drones explanation never really made any sense. As my News Nation border correspondent colleague Ali Bradley has detailed many times, the Mexican cartels frequently fly their drones over the US border and airspace is rarely if ever shut down because of these frequent incursions.

[Patrick (Vetted Host)]

So clearly this thing was a big deal, right? Well, Ross is saying it's a cover up. There's more to it then a hint

[Ross Coulthard]

of what was really going on. The New York Times claimed the real reason why the FAA shut down the El Paso airspace was because immigration officials had used an anti drone weapon shared by the Pentagon without coordinating with the faa. The Times quoted sources saying Customs Border Protection officials thought they were firing on a cartel drone, but it turned out to be a party balloon.

[Patrick (Vetted Host)]

So again, turns out they shot down a party balloon. Right, and that's why the airport got shut down. I think a lot of people aren't buying that explanation. I'm not saying it's not true, I don't really know. Right. But Ross is implying something completely different. And which brings us back to Skywatcher.

[Ross Coulthard]

While it appears that Sky Watcher is indeed defunct, it's been dissolved as a business entity. I suspect key individuals from the Sky Watcher team are now working with the Defence War Department at the White Sands Range. It would make sense they're using the Sky Watcher experts because I'm told that from November last year until now, the United States government, in a joint operation with multiple intelligence and defence agencies, has been using these airspace shutdowns, these TFRs, to do its own UAP intercept operations. Yes, they have been summoning, detecting and yes, shooting down what we some call drones, others UAPs. The airspace was closed to stop any other non government activity so that the government had a secure location from where it could summon, detect and shoot down UAPS craft. This has been happening.

[Patrick (Vetted Host)]

All right, so he's basically implying that Sky Watcher moved to working for the government and doing the exact same thing that they were doing with Sky Watcher. Right. Using two methods to summon these uap. Right. One was with the dog whistle, the other was with psionic assets. Right. And he's saying Sky Watcher is now defunct, but now they've skywalker the Sky Watcher people have moved to working for the government. And examples of things that potentially they have been participating in is stuff that happened around El Paso, which is where White Sands is as well, at least very near. So this is what Ross is trying to get at, right? That Sky Watcher is kind of working behind the scenes and has performed some major miracles for people that they're very interested in, which is why they got shut down. The government shut them down and then brought them in, absorb them, I don't know. Right, but this also could just be about drones, cartel drones right on the border, keeping the border safe.

[Ross Coulthard]

You know, to be clear, I'm told the Defense Department is using the same so called dog whistle, electromechanical signaling and psionic summoners, neuromeditative interaction as Skywatcher's team was doing at Sierra Blanca. It also perhaps explains why if members of Sky Watcher are working with the Defence Department, why Skywatcher has gone very quiet.

[Patrick (Vetted Host)]

All right, so there you go. There's a story about Sky Watcher. There's still a little bit more here left in the episode, but let me know what you think in the comments. Does this explain why Skywatcher went away? Do we think this is the real story here? Why all of a sudden come out with this story now? Right. I don't know. Again, let me know what you think in the comments.

[Ross Coulthard]

The Department of War has quite literally taken on the running of its own covert operation to intercept these mystery objects. And I'm told they have recently downed objects craft both in the US and across the border near Juarez in Mexico.

[Patrick (Vetted Host)]

All right, so now we've moved into another area here. So this same program, which Ross is sort of implying is Sky Watcher essentially here, has downed a craft right near the border here of Texas and Mexico, right near Juarez. And they've summoned a craft or whatever, shot it down, they've downed a craft all Right, so now what again? More stories? Are we ever going to get to see this craft? Any evidence of this crap? What are we talking about? And look, it gets crazier because more crazy things are about to come up. So stay with me. But again, we're down in UFOs at the border while also worried about cartel drones, like they're all. It's all just happening all together and party balloons all flying around together, right? What?

[Ross Coulthard]

I am also told by White House sources that President Trump has personally authorised this operation, which perhaps explains why no full admission has yet been made to the public about the full extent of what the government really knows. There is a full on effort underway by the administration to recover suspected non human intelligence exotic technology in a program totally separate from the so called Legacy program. This is an attempt by the President to circumvent the Legacy program. It's been run out of the White House by the President's most senior intelligence advisors. President Trump has tasked the Secretary of War, Pete Hegseth to find out what these objects are and to capture them. The Office of the Director of National Intelligence Odney is also involved. Sources have told me that one of the directed energy weapons systems used at White Sands in an attempt to shoot down these mystery craft is what's called high pulse microwave. It shuts down an aircraft by emitting an intense burst of electromagnetic energy that travels at the speed of light, penetrates the aircraft and fries its electronic systems. My sources tell me that the craft objects, UAPs, whatever you want to call them, are being targeted over White Sands. And they definitely show anomalous properties conforming to the five observables that define UAPs.

I mean, there's many things here. But you know, Ross is saying that Donald Trump. Okay. And he's put Pete, he Seth in charge, that they've created this alternate parallel program to the UFO legacy program. Right. To basically do their own thing. Oh, they're capturing, retrieving vehicles. We could do the same thing. We'll get those UFOs ourselves. I mean, if that's true, in a way, I say let's go for it. But I mean, I don't know. This sounds like it's more they're trying to get unmanned aerial vehicles. Right. But they're playing it off as sort of alien or non human. I just don't know. Right. Like this has to do with drones and border security and Chinese drones coming in and all kinds of things. What does this have to do with aliens?

[Advertisement Voice / Guest]

I don't know.

[Patrick (Vetted Host)]

I'm getting confused. So. But you know, is this thing happening with Trump? Well, it could very well be, but maybe not the way that Ross is describing it. And that's what we'll probably never now. But essentially Ross is connecting all the dots here. Right. Trump, the White House, this new initiative to, you know, summon UFOs, shoot them down, collect them. Right. For public disclosure. And that's why Sky Watcher is working with them to make this happen. Right. And that's why some of the stories you've seen out in the news have nothing to do with the official narrative you're getting. It's this program, this Donald Trump White House, you know, crash retrieval program. Yeah, I don't know. I'm losing it myself just saying it out loud again. Let me know what you think in the comments.

[Ross Coulthard]

It's being considered as a possibility. I'm told that some of these objects may be Chinese or other foreign adversary drones doing intelligence or surveillance on what is one of America's most sensitive military test ranges. But what is being detected is without doubt far beyond any known conventional human technology. If these are Chinese spy drones, then the Chinese have cracked super advanced stealth propulsion systems with no visible means of propulsion. The fear also is that this secret operation authorised and being run by the White House on the orders of the President is compromised. That some of the people in the multiple agencies brought into this now massive operation are part of the COVID legacy program that has been retrieving and attempting to reverse engineer NHI craft for decades.

[Patrick (Vetted Host)]

All right, so now Ross is throwing a wrench in this story that the UFO legacy program, the official one, right, the secretive program, they have now infiltrated this new program that Trump and the White House have started. Their, their, you know, secondary UFO legacy program, the new one, the polished one, right. Gold plated. If it's Trump's, that legacy program has now been infiltrated by the, you know, the others. Right. So it's like they can't win essentially, here again, you know, I, I don't know. I don't know.

[Ross Coulthard]

Understandably, the President wants the US to have and to know all about these exotic technologies, but is he being told the full story by those he trusts to keep him briefed? I'm told he's not. If the President intends to disclose to the public what they're discovering over at White Sands, then this is potentially a huge development for UAP disclosure. But what he plans to do with the information he gets and the exotic technology he recovers is not yet clear.

[Patrick (Vetted Host)]

So now the President's not aware of what's going on. He's also being hoodwinked and manipulated and lied to. President Trump just doesn't seem like someone who would put up with something like that. Right, but Ross is aware of this, but Trump seems to be in the dark about what's happening. It's like there's something real happening and then you just. All these different interpretations of what that real thing that's happening. You got the UFO people, like, yeah, the UFO things happen, you know, and then other people who are looking at it from just a drone perspective are like, yeah, we're doing this thing. Just, it's not a big deal. You know, that's the, that's the sense I get on the UFO side. Oh, my God. We're, you know, we're getting disclosure. UFOs crash or travel. And then on the other side, it's just like, yeah, doing this thing, you know, that's what it kind of feels like. I don't know, am I onto something? Let me know.

[Ross Coulthard]

And by the way, I'm told the object that was detected and fired at over El Paso, Texas, that started all the public hullabaloo was most definitely not a party balloon or a cartel drone. It was most definitely anomalous.

[Patrick (Vetted Host)]

Hubba baloo or what do you say? I don't know. Yeah, the El Paso shutdown, right? All that Hubaloo Habaloo. Whatever. Not a party balloon, not a cartel drone. Definitely anonymous. Ross Coulthard knows. Right? Again, I'm not saying the official narrative is that, but, you know, I knew, I think everyone knew that that was going to be turned into something more when it happened, right? But I don't know. Again, what do you think?

[Advertisement Voice / Guest]

Why do you think Skywatcher would get in bed with government entities such as the CIA and other aforementioned ones there in the first place? It seems a little contrary to the mission of disclosure. Straight from the people.

[Ross Coulthard]

That's a good question. I can't speak for Sky Watcher, but I suspect they had no choice.

[Patrick (Vetted Host)]

So that's a good question by Megan, right? Why would Sky Watcher get involved? Right. They were their own thing, gonna bring disclosure to the people, right? Now they've just been sucked up and you know, but allegedly Jake Barber was part of the crash retrieval program to begin with or something. You know, it's like, it's all very confusing, to be honest with you. At the end of the day, we just want evidence for the claims. You down to craft. Let's see it. You got this? Let's see. If not, we're just telling stories here, um, which, okay, interesting. But let's see what comes of it. Nothing is my guess, right. I'll just move into something else. It's like they just extend it by a few years and then when a few years is up, they like, okay, scramble like, okay, how do we work it for another few years? I don't know. Could be wrong. And they could be doing a good thing. Working the the border for cartel drones, helping with national security. They're just masking it as UFOs. That would be a good thing. So, you know, I don't know. Would Skywatcher have no choice but to do that? I mean, I guess you have other choices. But if they feel like they're doing good and they can, you know, get a contract and blah, blah, I mean, you know, I don't know at the end of the day, right, That's a tough question to answer. It's not like they were anti government when they came out. Although they have made a lot of crazy accusations about the government. So it's weird that the government would bring them in.

[Ross Coulthard]

If the President's being straight with us, he will offer an explanation as to whether, for example, the King Air aircraft that was downed over or near White Sands, whether that aircraft was hit by HPM weapons or any kind of weaponry that was being used in one of These operations, I'm told from my own sources that there have been craft incidentally brought down, civilian aircraft brought down as an accident by high pulse microwaves during legacy operations that have taken place in other parts of the United States targeting UAP craft.

[Patrick (Vetted Host)]

So again, this is where it gets a little. Starts to get a little wacky. And just for this reason, let me explain. I already made a video about this because Danny Sheehan and others have come out about a story, UAP GERB has come out about it, and now Ross, right? All saying that commercial and private aircraft are getting shot down by these same weapons that they're using to shoot down UFOs. So let me paint the picture. They're set up to shoot down a ufo, right? They got a special little weapon, little scalar or directed energy weapon. Boom. They go to shoot down the ufo, it misses and it hits a commercial airliner or a private plane. Apparently this keeps happening, right? And Ross is giving an example in here of a particular incident, right? And saying, asking if this is connected, right? I think it's possible. One incident, right? Accidentally, anti drone laser gun, you shoot it, it shoots up. You shoot a plane instead. Okay? But it crashed and we covered up, you know, I don't know. Again, this keeps getting brought up, right? So, and this being part of the, the, you know, program, but it also sounds like they're not doing a good job. First of all, we're shooting UFOs. That's, that's the implication. We're shooting at non humans. And then we're also shooting our own civilians at the same time as we're trying to bring them down. What are we doing, right? Is it. This is a good program. This is the one Trump allegedly started, right? And maybe even the UFO legacy program is also doing this. I don't know. Because they've been infiltrated. So.

[Ross Coulthard]

Yeah.

[Patrick (Vetted Host)]

Who's in charge? I don't know.

[Ross Coulthard]

We now know that a weapon used by the White Sands Missile Range accidentally caused the deaths of four people in a medevac aircraft. Now, we don't know for sure that that was connected to the covert operation that I'm describing, but we do know that very dangerous weapons are being used, which is why they shut down the El Paso airspace. The real story is that they have been using these weapons to try to shoot down NHI technology. And I think we're getting to the point now. So many people are leaking to me about this. I think we're getting to the point now where it's unsustainable for the government to maintain this fictional cover story that this was either a party balloon over El Paso, Texas, or a cartel drone. You do not shut down a very busy city in America just because a cartel drone or a balloon floats into the airspace space doesn't make sense. The bigger explanation, and I think I can't speak for Jake. I've not been in a position to be able to question him about this. But I know he's deeply skeptical from the times I was encouraging him. He has given evidence, by the way, to the Congress. I took him there. We actually took him to the Congress and he sat down with a committee and gave his evidence. So the Congress has Jake's evidence. They know what he knows. And I'm sure if he was asked, he's a patriot, he would probably want to give his evidence. But it has to be in a way that can be trusted. The simple fact is there are a lot of people playing double games right now claiming to be pro disclosure, especially in Congress, and frankly, they're bull.

[Patrick (Vetted Host)]

Okay, so now Ross is calling out congresspeople. Right? He's saying Jake is doing his thing. Right. All of that. Right. Still talking about the planes getting shot down, you know, again, giving an example. But now he's calling out Congress. They're not. They're in it for other reasons. Right. People who are claim to be pro disclosure. So Burleson, Burchette, Luna. I don't know who he's calling out. Moskowitz, who knows, Rounds, Schumer. It's a lot of people. Again, I don't. I don't know.

[Advertisement Voice / Guest]

Do you have any idea where these down craft are being taken?

[Ross Coulthard]

No idea at all. I'm not privy to any of the. What's happened once they've been taken away by the retrieval teams.

[Advertisement Voice / Guest]

All right, Wes, thank you for that awesome report. Really good reporting there. And I know the viewers are really going to appreciate that.

[Ross Coulthard]

What I can say, Megan, is I'm privy to a lot of material that I haven't put here and I've done. I've been very careful because I want to respect national security constraints. I'm aware of units, individuals and specific orders. And I really do think that it's time for the Defence Department, the Department of War, the President, the entire administration to realise that there are people who are genuinely concerned that the President is not being told the full story about what's going on on his behalf at the White Sands Missile. Rage, and God help us, the mere fact that a civilian aircraft has been caused to crash by operations at White Sands Missile Range, which are not necessarily part of this operation but part of an exercise, illustrates just how dangerous this can be.

[Patrick (Vetted Host)]

I think what's interesting is all I heard was I don't know. Right. Megan asked a great question. Do you know where any of these downcraft are? I don't. I don't have. I'm not privy to that information. Of course we never get the goods. Right. That's all I heard. I didn't even hear. I just heard blah blah blah after that. So I mean it's just information that comes in. That's basically it. Could it be true? I don't know. I just take it and go, okay. I don't really know what more to do with it, you know, at that point. Right. What's the action that's going to be taken because of this? That's what I'd like to know from this. And you don't get that from this video that Ross does. And again, I'll put a link in the description. Go check out the full video. There's much more that he says, but these are just huge accusations. Again, bombshell accusations against the government. Right.

[Advertisement Voice / Guest]

And.

[Patrick (Vetted Host)]

And specifically Donald Trump. Right. Because they're implicating Donald Trump. He starts this program to shoot down UFOs and instead they accidentally shoot down civilian aircraft. Trump's responsible. What? And the government's responsible. So I don't know. But where's the aliens? And again, why are we shooting? Hey, Ryan Reynolds here for Mint Mobile. Are you looking for a beach read this summer? May I suggest your big wireless bill? It's got suspense, mystery, a slightly flat emotional arc and a shocking twist where you realize you've been overpaying the entire time. Fortunately though, Mint stories.

Better.

[Patrick (Vetted Host)]

Better every plan. $15 a month, even unlimited.

[Ross Coulthard]

That's it.

[Ross Coulthard]

Frankly, I think if we are targeting NHI technology, if there's a possibility that there is a biological entity on board those craft, a living, intelligent advanced being. What does it say about our potential first contact with a non human intelligence that we're acting offensively against them? One of the excuses that was put to me by one person I spoke to about this was that if you ran through the security area of a secure airport with something in your hands the first thing that security guards would be obliged to do is to shoot at you. The problem is we've invited these entities, we've summoned them into this area and we're now shooting them down.

[Patrick (Vetted Host)]

All right, y', all, that's it for today's video. Thank you all so much for watching. Yes, I am on the road in Tucson, Arizona going to watch Chris Ramsey show from the it's all no, no, it's probably nothing to her. That's what it's called where xcia John Ramirez is speaking with Chris Ramsey and Josh from Polarity is co hosting. So Gino from the Y files and I are here in Tucson and we're gonna go see Chris and have a good time. So yes, we are on the road and again, thank you so much for watching. We'll see you guys on the next one. Remember about us, every day's a gift, y'.
