Summary
Controversy is brewing in Washington, and recent reports indicate that the jobs of potentially large numbers of FBI agents may be in jeopardy resulting from a shake-up involving the Justice Department. However, in the midst of the controversy, new reports of an alleged "UAP Working Group" within the FBI has renewed attention on the Bureau's UAP investigations; does the FBI have its own real-life UFO X-Files?
This week on The Micah Hanks Program, we look into the deeper history of the FBI's involvement in UAP investigations, including how one researcher unraveled an actual series of files dubbed the "X-Files" that were once kept in the FBI's holdings, as well as several of the top UFO-related files made available for reading on the FBI's website.
Have you had a UFO/UAP sighting? Please consider reporting your sighting to the UAP Sightings Reporting System, a public resource for information about sightings of aerial phenomena.
