• Legendary UFO journalist George Knapp joined "CUOMO" on Monday
• 'Weaponized' podcast co-host Jeremy Corbell also discussed the issue
• Both believe agencies continue to hide the truth from Americans

(NewsNation) — Legendary UFO journalist George Knapp believes it will take a whistleblower with tangible evidence to uncover what the Pentagon and other agencies have hidden from the American people for several decades.

Knapp told “CUOMO” he does not believe those who harbor secrets about the realities of UFOs are “going to give this up.”

“We created the story about Area 51, we created this story about nukes being disabled. That’s all us. All the technology that people have been seeing in the skies around the world, on every culture, every continent throughout human history, that’s us,” Knapp said sarcastically.

“It’s preposterous. It’s ridiculous. There’s no way we could we could ever accept it,” he added.

Knapp also believes there are often more pressing news items and current affairs than UFOs, and as such, “people who tell these lies get away with it.”

Chris Cuomo said a shift will occur in the desire from both sides of the political aisle to uncover more about UFOs once they realize it can be a worthwhile political tool.

“One of these two poison parties is going to realize there’s something in this issue for them versus the other one, and they’ll go all-in down that road,” Cuomo said.

“And these cats are all about advantage, never about advancement of anything but their own aims.”
