Podesta WikiLeaks Emails — UAP Correspondence
WikiLeaks released emails from Hillary Clinton campaign chairman John Podesta revealing correspondence about UAP with senior military and government figures. Tom DeLonge appears in multiple emails discussing UAP disclosure with Podesta, referencing meetings with Major General William McCasland (Air Force Research Lab commander at Wright-Patterson) and other senior officials. Podesta himself has publicly stated the government should release UFO files. The emails connect DeLonge, McCasland, and senior government officials in a documented UAP disclosure effort.
