Blink-182 co-founder Tom DeLonge recently confirmed that he was questioned by government officials for a couple of days regarding an alleged UFO encounter. DeLonge is long known for his interest in extraterrestrial phenomena. He opened up about the experience and addressed critics who remain skeptical of his views on the paranormal.
When he was asked if he would be comfortable sharing details about his UFO encounter, DeLonge gave a guarded but revealing response.
“It’s probably not for here,” DeLonge said.
“Other than that I will say when I had hard questioning for two days straight by some… certain people in the government, that the very first question they asked was wanting to know everything that happened in the desert. So it gives you an idea of how seriously they take it.”
DeLonge was also questioned how he responds to skeptics who dismiss his interest in the paranormal and extraterrestrials.
“I don’t know,” DeLonge continued.
“It’s like somebody dismissing the fact that we’re in a trade war with China. You know, it’s like ‘it’s in the news! What do you want me to tell you?’ You just don’t want to believe the news — like, you’ll believe any other congressional hearing under oath with a government official? But when they talk about this you don’t? I know I’ve done my work, you know, I’m moving on to explain what it is.”
DeLonge’s history with government secrecy regarding UFOs stretches back years, long before this latest round of questions about his encounter in the desert.
DeLonge co-founded To The Stars Academy of Arts & Science, an organization built around a team of experienced minds from the U.S. intelligence community dedicated to researching the fringes of science and advanced technology. That same company first released the now-famous Navy UAP videos. DeLonge leaked the footage years before the Pentagon officially declassified it and confirmed its authenticity.
