He Saw Four TIC TAC UFOs - Then AARO Came Calling

Summary

Navy Senior Chief Alexandro Wiggins describes watching four Tic Tac-shaped objects rise out of the ocean off San Diego in February 2023, move in perfect unison, and then shoot toward the coast at impossible speed. After testifying about the sighting before Congress with the Navy's full support, he says the Pentagon's UFO office AARO pressured his chain of command to force him into a classified briefing, even threatening to involve the Secretary of War. George Knapp and Jeremy Corbell call this witness intimidation and argue that the recent government UFO file releases are mostly recycled material.

Key takeaways

• 1Senior Chief Alexandro Wiggins, an air controller with 20 years of experience aboard the USS Jackson, says four Tic Tac objects emerged from the water off San Diego in February 2023 and were filmed with the ship's SAFIRE camera system.
• 2Wiggins says AARO tried to compel him into a SCIF (a secure classified room) to repeat his testimony, and allegedly told his captain it might get Pete Hegseth to force him, which Wiggins believes was meant to classify his story and silence him.
• 3The episode references the 2004 Nimitz Tic Tac case (Commander David Fravor, Chad Underwood's footage), which anchored the 2017 New York Times story and was first investigated by AAWSAP.
• 4Corbell says 7 of the 8 videos in his film 'Sleeping Dog' later appeared in the government's presidentially directed file releases, and calls the 2021 Syria 'instantaneous acceleration' UAP the most important public video.
• 5Knapp reports the BLM recently closed about 26,000 acres of public land near Area 51 (around Tikaboo Peak), following the 1984 Groom Lake land seizure and the 1990s closures of White Sides and Freedom Ridge.
• 6Whistleblowers Dylan Borland, Matthew Brown (who reports break-ins at his home) and Jeff Nuccetelli formed the group Vanguard, and a military source says unreleased full footage of the 'Jellyfish' UAP exists.

Transcript excerpt

Chief Wiggins comes along and sees not one tic tac, but four. Senior chief operations specialist in the United States Navy. Evidence of four of them uh off the coast of Southern California. As he's sooing to that location, that's when we realize this light is meeting up with other tic tacs. And that's where you see the video kick in. They're moving as if they're being controlled by the same thing because they're making the same movements at the same time. But it was so quick that indescribable. When you go to the school for OS, you have to learn silhouettes. In a lot of rates, you have to learn silhouettes and you just have to know that's a DDG. This is, you know, uh, a Prowler, different aircraft, different submarines. You have to learn this when you're first coming into the Navy. In a lot of the schools, I've been seeing different silhouettes of air, surface, and subsurface. my whole career looking at that day and understanding that there were no plumes. There was nothing I was able to see on that day when I described to my my fellow watch standers. Some of the skeptics on board the ship were like, "Oh, well that's just another, you know, commercial comm nav radar as we would call it." I think maybe 30 45 seconds pass and a commercial navigation pops up on my radar and I say, "Okay, zoom into that on on there." And you see the plume, you see the wings. This is Weaponized. I'm George Knap hanging out here in Las Vegas. Uh kind of a cool day. Joined by my friend and colleague Jeremy Corbell.
