ODNI NDA-waiver implementation memo (Lukas, 31 Jul 2026).
official-recordgovernment_studyDisclosure Legislation & Oversight
IC implementation memo (signed 31 Jul, released 2 Aug 2026) operationalizing Trump's UAP-NDA directive: declares prior NDAs/secrecy oaths 'no longer in force' when speaking to authorized AARO or PURSUE reps; 30-day deadline for every IC component to name a PURSUE designee.
Formal ODNI memo advancing the whistleblower-channel machinery behind PURSUE. HONESTY: senior officials say it is NOT a declassification directive and NOT criminal amnesty (testimony still passes existing gov review); and AARO already held FY2023-NDAA authority to receive NDA-protected UAP info, so the novelty is DISPUTED. Skeptic whistleblowers call the 'cleared channels' a potential trap. war.gov/dni.gov primaries 403-gated -> verified via NewsNation/IBTimes/Messier/Burlison press release.
