  "account": "Two videos of a black triangular UFO reportedly flying over a Colorado military base remain classified, despite a new order from President Donald Trump intended to encourage UFO whistleblowers to come forward. The footage, recorded on a service member's personal cellphone on two nights in 2023, is held by the Air Force Office of Special Investigations and has not been released to the public. The videos allegedly show a 100-foot craft moving over mountains and blending into clouds. Former Air Force veteran and contractor Dylan Borland, who claimed to have witnessed a similar UFO, criticized the new directive as ineffective for current whistleblowers. Another former contractor, Matthew Brown, also doubted the directive's impact on allowing whistleblowers to disclose information publicly, noting that he faced retaliation after going through official channels.",
  "summary": "Two classified videos allegedly showing a large, black triangular UFO flying over a Colorado military base remain inaccessible to the public despite a new order from President Donald Trump aimed at encouraging more UFO whistleblowers to come forward, according to sources cited by The New York Post. The videos were reportedly recorded on a service member’s personal cellphone on two consecutive nights in 2023 and remain classified by the US Air Force, held by the Air Force Office of Special Investigations in Colorado. The footage, associated with file numbers IRR1669S015524 and IRR1669S005024, allegedly captures a roughly 100-foot black triangular craft moving over mountains and appearing to camouflage itself within clouds. The claims come amid renewed debate over whether the Trump administration's latest directive will make it easier for people with knowledge of classified unidentified anomalous phenomena (UAP) programs to disclose what they know, but former US Air Force veteran Dylan Borland and former defence industry contractor Matthew Brown both question whether Trump's directive will allow whistleblowers to disclose information directly to the public, stating that nothing has changed.",
