Biography
The highest-ranking former official driving the opening of information. He was a key piece in getting the matter from the Pentagon to the New York Times report of December 2017, and his columns in the Wall Street Journal and the Washington Post established it as a matter of national security, lifting it out of the 'UFO enthusiast' territory.

Disclosure Forum 2026 · Kennedy Caucus Room, U.S. Senate (June 25)
The Disclosure Forum 2026 was a full-day public forum held by the Disclosure Foundation, chaired by Christopher Mellon, on June 25, 2026 in the Kennedy Caucus Room of the Russell Senate Office Building in Washington, and streamed live. It brought together Senators Kirsten Gillibrand and Mike Rounds, Representatives Anna Paulina Luna, Eric Burlison, Tim Burchett and Suhas Subramanyam, and experts such as Avi Loeb, Harold Puthoff, retired Rear Admiral Tim Gallaudet and historian Carlos Eire. It came two weeks after the third PURSUE release. The forum brought no new material evidence: it documents the public convergence of legislative, military, intelligence and academic figures, not the nature of the phenomenon.
