Air Force is “Hellbent” on Ending the Career of a Brigadier General Over His Opposition to the COVID-19 Mandate

In Air Force Brigadier General Christopher Sage’s case, he was left in command. No action was taken against him because of the many legal errors in the investigation. His own chain of command continued to support him and recommend him for promotion.

That is, until those voices were disregarded and he was taken off the two-star promotion list due to a flawed investigation that included his opposition to COVID-19 mandate policies.

The Gateway Pundit spoke to Brig Gen Sage, who, after three decades of honorable service to his country, now finds it difficult to come to terms with the fact that those in authority appear indifferent, or at least that’s the impression they create by disregarding his pleas for help.

“Why is the Air Force still not listening? Why are they still doubling down on a flawed investigation and hellbent on retiring me? Why are they not complying with President Donald Trump’s order to nullify all actions taken by the autopen?” These are only a handful of the questions that crowd his mind each day as he observes his own exemplary 31-year career come to an end, with a forced retirement looming on December 31, 2025.

According to reviewed documents, Rep. Eli Crane (R-AZ), Rep. Brian Mast (R-FL), and nine other Congressmen have called for the investigation against him to be dismissed. These same individuals have also requested a formal inquiry into the Air Force Inspector General (IG) who oversaw his case. “They called out his conduct and misuse of the IG system,” Brig Gen Sage explained. “Rather than investigate the IG, the Air Force promoted him to 4-star general.”

In March 2024, after two years of delay, Brig Gen Sage was issued a memo bearing the autopen signature of former President Joe Biden, which removed him from the promotion list. The Air Force is still acting as if the document is binding despite President Trump’s call to terminate executive actions signed by Biden’s autopen. Even the Department of War appears to be ignoring Trump’s intention.

Have attorneys like the acting General Counsel Shannon McGuire and the Deputy General Counsel for Military Affairs Julia Muedeking also played a role in the destruction of Brig Gen Sage’s career? For many following his story, it begs the question: Who are the lawyers and bureaucrats advising the Secretary of the Air Force (SECAF), or the Secretary of War for that matter? These very people are the same ones who advised the last administration on implementing the illegal COVID-19 shot mandate. They now appear intent on waiting Brig Gen Sage out until December 31, effectively forcing the one-star into retirement.

Top secret Air Force jet spotted on mysterious trip to Area 51

Flight tracking data has revealed the path of a top-secret Air Force jet landing at the highly classified Area 51 in the Nevada desert on Monday.

The plane is part of the military’s Janet fleet, which transports contractor employees, Department of Defense staff and military personnel to secure facilities housing classified information.

The Janet departed Harry Reid International Airport, Las Vegas’ main airport, at 8:25am PT and touched down at Area 51 at 8:42am.

While the purpose of the flight remains unclear, Area 51 is located within the US Air Force’s Nevada Test and Training Range, used for large-scale military exercises. 

The site has long been rumored to host crashed extraterrestrial spacecraft and other mysterious technologies.

Designed by Boeing, Janet jets are white with a single red stripe running from nose to tail. 

They operate from a dedicated terminal and parking area in Las Vegas, as the remote facility does not support commuting by vehicle.

Monday’s light was just one of six Janet flights to Area 51 over the past week.

US Air Force Silent on Alleged Covert UFO-Tracking Program Revealed by James Clapper

The United States Air Force has declined to say whether it operated a covert program dedicated to tracking Unidentified Anomalous Phenomena (UAP).

In the new documentary ‘The Age of Disclosure’, former Director of National Intelligence James Clapper made a striking claim: a secretive Air Force program has been actively monitoring UAP, particularly over the highly classified Area 51 facility in Nevada – an epicentre of cutting-edge military development and testing.

Clapper, who also served as Chief of Air Force Intelligence, stated:

“When I served in the Air Force, there was an active program to track anomalous activities that we couldn’t otherwise explain – many of them connected with ranges out west, notably Area 51.”

Liberation Times asked the Air Force whether it could confirm or deny whether Clapper’s allegations were true. But the Air Force was unable to do so.

Instead, an Air Force official told Liberation Times:

“The Nevada Test and Training Range provides flexible, realistic and multidimensional battlespace to test and develop tactics as well as conduct advanced training in support of U.S. national interests.

“Several agencies have jurisdiction over various parts of the Nevada Test and Training Range. The U.S. Air Force controls the airspace over the range and roughly 2.9 million acres of land withdrawn for military use. Various organizations including the Department of Energy, Department of the Interior and private towns such as Rachel also manage portions of the land.”

Liberation Times also reached out to Susan Gough, spokesperson for the Department of War’s (DoW) UAP office, the All-Domain Anomaly Resolution Office (AARO), regarding Clapper’s allegations. However, Gough stated that she had no information to provide at this time.

The documentary, which features Clapper’s allegations, was released this week on Amazon.

After watching the premiere in March 2025 at the SXSW Film Festival, Marik Von Rennenkampff, a former analyst at the U.S. Department of State and Obama administration appointee at the Department of Defense (now Department of War), wrote: 

‘In Age of Disclosure, former Director of National Intelligence James Clapper states that a secretive, previously unknown U.S. Air Force program tracked UAP/UFOs, particularly over Area 51.

‘Congress must investigate.’

American B-2 Stealth Bomber Fleet and a CCP-Linked Trailer Park, What Could Possibly Go Wrong?

A trailer park, a billionaire linked to Chinese Communist Party intelligence services, and a U.S. nuclear bomber facility. It would be rejected by Hollywood as too far-fetched for a movie plot, but the story is frighteningly real.

A foreign-owned trailer park in rural Missouri sits directly beside Whiteman Air Force Base, the home of America’s nuclear-capable B-2 stealth bomber fleet. The Knob Noster Trailer Park lies less than a mile from the runway, separated from the base by only a fence. Business records show the property was acquired in 2017 through a maze of shell companies ultimately controlled by a Canadian couple, Esther Mei and Cheng Hu.

The couple has documented ties to Chinese tycoon Miles Guo, also known as Guo Wengui or Ho Wan Kwok, who has described himself as a former intelligence “affiliate” of the Chinese Communist Party. Guo was convicted in July 2024 on nine federal counts, including racketeering conspiracy, wire fraud, securities fraud, and money laundering in a billion-dollar fraud scheme.

Guo Wengui rose from a poor village in Shandong to become a flamboyant Beijing real estate tycoon operating in the gray zone between business and the Chinese security state. He functioned as a “white glove,” facilitating deals and protection for powerful officials while amassing wealth through politically connected construction projects. A key relationship was with Ma Jian, the powerful head of Chinese counterintelligence in the Ministry of State Security, with whom Guo later admitted having a long-running partnership as an “affiliate” of the security services.

Ma Jian allegedly used his position to shield Guo’s businesses and crush rivals, including an episode where a vice mayor who blocked one of Guo’s projects was brought down using compromising surveillance footage, clearing the way for Guo’s development. Guo cultivated access to senior Chinese and foreign elites, hosted lavish dinners, maintained a garage full of supercars, and even acted as a cutout to meet the Dalai Lama on behalf of Chinese intelligence.

In 2015, after a high-stakes business dispute and the arrest of Ma Jian, Guo fled China, reportedly leaving just ahead of his own likely detention. He settled first in the UK and then in New York, where he purchased a $67.5 million penthouse in the Sherry-Netherland and quickly became a person of interest to U.S. authorities.

He met repeatedly with the FBI, providing detailed information on the finances and personal lives of Chinese leaders, including Xi Jinping’s family, effectively trading intelligence for protection. At the same time, he began reinventing himself as an anti-CCP dissident and built a media and political ecosystem in the United States.

In 2017, Steve Bannon needed new financial backers and found in Guo a wealthy partner who shared an aggressive stance against the Chinese Communist Party. Together they launched ventures such as GTV Media Group and promoted the “New Federal State of China,” a self-styled anti-CCP “government in exile” announced in a choreographed event on a boat in New York Harbor.

Guo’s media outlets promoted conservative content, targeting mainly Chinese expatriates and right-wing circles. He simultaneously pushed branded products, cryptocurrencies, and investment schemes that raised hundreds of millions of dollars until the SEC ruled several offerings illegal and forced large restitution, leading to GTV’s shutdown.

Despite presenting himself as a champion of Chinese freedom, Guo waged aggressive campaigns against long-established Chinese dissidents in the West, mobilizing followers to harass them at their homes and accusing them of being CCP spies using classic Communist rhetoric. At one point he publicly offered to “atone” to Beijing, asking the Chinese leadership to assign him a “clear, targeted task” to prove his patriotism and support for Xi Jinping.

Cover-up revealed in death of airman at F.E. Warren Air Force Base

Security Forces Airman Brandon Lovan was killed while on duty at F.E. Warren Air Force Base, Wyoming, on July 20, 2025. Preliminary reports from airmen stationed at the base attributed Lovan’s death to an uncommanded discharge from an Air Force-issued M18 pistol. In response to these reports, Global Strike Command and the entire Air Force conducted inspections of all M18 pistols in service.

On Oct. 31, 2025, the 90th Missile Wing Public Affairs published a court-martial summary following the investigation into Lovan’s death. Airman 1st Class Sarbjot Badesha and Airman 1st Class Matthew Rodriguez both pleaded guilty to making false official statements relating to Lovan’s death. Airman 1st Class Marcus White-Allen mishandled his M18, killing Lovan, and conspired with the others to cover up the incident.

During their guilty pleas, both Airmen admitted they saw White-Allen pull his duty weapon from his holster and point it at Lovan’s chest in a joking manner. Each stated they then heard the firearm go off and saw Lovan fallen on the ground. According to their pleas, in the immediate aftermath of the incident, White-Allen told Badesha, “Here’s the story. Tell them that I slammed my duty belt on the desk, and it went off.”

Additionally, White-Allen told Rodriguez to tell the responding emergency personnel, White-Allen’s “holster went off.” Neither Airman reported that information to investigators during their initial witness interviews on Jul. 20, 2025. The false statements from both Airmen hindered law enforcement efforts, leading investigators to initially believe Lovan’s death was a result of an accidental discharge from White-Allen’s M18.

Mysterious Area 51 ‘unmanned aircraft’ crash probed by Air Force, FBI — as claims rumors swirl

A mysterious aircraft crash near Nevada’s secretive Area 51 has triggered weeks of speculation, a military probe — and allegations of a government cover-up.

The incident occurred Sept. 23 on public land just outside the boundaries of the classified base at Groom Lake, about 83 miles north-northwest of Las Vegas, according to the Air Force and KLAS-TV, which reported on the crash Thursday.

A spokesperson for Creech Air Force Base confirmed the mishap involved an aircraft assigned to the 432nd Wing, which operates unmanned aerial vehicles.

No fatalities or injuries were reported, and recovery operations wrapped up Sept. 27, the base said.

But what followed — a base lockdown, flight restrictions and apparent tampering at the crash site — has fueled widespread rumors about what really fell from the sky.

The Air Force said investigators discovered “signs of tampering” during a follow-up site survey on Oct. 3, including an inert training bomb and an aircraft panel of unknown origin that were placed there after the crash.

The Air Force Office of Special Investigations and the FBI have launched a joint probe into the matter, according to the 432nd Wing’s public affairs office.

Creech officials have not released the model of the aircraft involved.

The FAA confirmed issuing a temporary flight restriction over a five-nautical-mile area east of Area 51 on the day of the crash “for national security reasons,” KLAS-TV reported on Sept. 25.

State Department Employee Steals Thousands of Pages of “Top Secret” Classified Documents, Meets with Chinese Officials

A State Department contractor stole thousands of pages of “TOP SECRET” classified documents and met with Beijing officials.

Ashley Tellis, an expert on India and South Asian affairs, removed the top secret documents from secure locations and met with Chinese officials.

The classified documents were located in Tellis’s Virginia home during a raid.

“On Sept. 25, he allegedly printed U.S. Air Force documents concerning military aircraft capabilities. Federal prosecutors allege that he met with Chinese government officials multiple times over the past several years,” Fox News reported.

Prosecutors said in September 2022 that Tellis brought a manila envelope with him when he met with Chinese officials in a Virginia restaurant.

Fox News reported:

A State Department employee is accused of removing classified documents from secure locations and meeting with Chinese officials dating back to 2023.

The Justice Department said Ashley Tellis was an unpaid senior adviser to the State Department and also a contractor with the Office of Net Assessment at the Department of Defense, recently renamed the Department of War. He is considered a subject-matter expert on India and South Asian affairs in his role at the Office of Net Assessment.

Tellis began working for the State Department in 2001, court documents state. He is accused of unlawful retention of national defense information, according to an affidavit.

He held a top-secret clearance and had access to sensitive information, federal prosecutors said in court documents. He was also employed as a senior fellow at the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace.

Former Air Force Insider: Intelligence Personnel Were Shown Images of an Ancient ‘Tic Tac’ UFO

An advanced, exotic vehicle of unknown origin was unearthed during an archaeological dig, according to Dylan Borland, a former U.S. Air Force member and intelligence-community whistleblower.

Borland, who testified publicly last month on Unidentified Anomalous Phenomena (UAP) before the Congressional Task Force on the Declassification of Federal Secrets, expanded on his claims in an interview with investigative journalists Jeremy Corbell and George Knapp on their WEAPONIZED podcast.

Referencing UAP described as ‘propane tank’ or ‘Tic Tac’ shaped – similar to objects publicly reported by U.S. Navy personnel off the West Coast in 2004 and again in 2023 – Borland stated:

“They [members of a UAP legacy program] had photographic evidence of archaeological digs of some of these, and they had photographic evidence of ones that were complete.

“They did not disclose where they came from, which goes back to AARO [All-domain Anomaly Resolution Office] and the word games that are played with AARO on this subject.”

Veteran Space Operator Alleges Secret Control System Undermines Space Command and is Possibly Connected to UFOs

A veteran U.S. space operator has publicly alleged that a concealed ‘security control system’ within America’s national-security space enterprise is undermining commanders, obstructing routine tracking of objects in orbit, and, in some cases, diverting data away from the very commands responsible for defending the nation.

In a LinkedIn statement on 29 September 2025, Jim Shell alleged that a secret system has supplanted the ‘direction and authority’ of the U.S. Space Force and U.S. Space Command. Shell is a former ‘Chief Scientist’ by duty title at the Space Innovation and Development Center under Air Force Space Command. 

In his statement, Shell states he has high confidence that the system is:

  • Supplanting the authority of Space Force and Space Command
  • Causing unauthorised interference with the Space Domain Awareness (SDA) mission – the global effort to detect, track and characterise satellites, debris, and other orbital objects
  • Demonstrating the potential to interfere with U.S. Northern Command’s ability to protect the homeland
  • Suppressing intelligence about Russian and Chinese on-orbit activities
  • Enforcing unpublished security rules that have led to Guardians – service members with the Space Force – being removed, threatened with court martial, and branded ‘problematic,’ while their commanders were never told the basis for the charges.

He adds that he has medium confidence in two further claims: that funds have been misappropriated, and that the system connects to Unidentified Anomalous Phenomena (UAP) activity – this raises the possibility that anomalous orbital detections are removed from the standard catalogue before they reach operational commanders.

Shell links today’s problems to a 2018 classification policy; however, Liberation Times understands the system’s unpublished rules predate 2018.

The 2018 policy was co-signed by the National Reconnaissance Office (NRO) – which runs America’s spy satellites – and U.S. Strategic Command, which oversaw space operations before the creation of the U.S. Space Force and Space Command in 2019.

When the U.S. Space Command was re-established in 2019, following its inactivation in 2002, it adopted the policy, according to Shell.

Shell argues neither NRO nor U.S. Strategic Command had proper authority to impose such sweeping changes, yet the unpublished rules stemming from that policy continue to be enforced.

Alarmingly, according to Shell, attempts by senior officials to change the policy have repeatedly failed.

He points to an alleged confrontation on 27 May 2021, when the Vice Chief of Space Operations sought to push through changes but was blocked. Based on the date and role, this likely refers to General David Thompson, who held that post at the time.

Military aircraft ‘incident’ under investigation near Area 51 outside Las Vegas

The U.S. Air Force is investigating an incident involving a military aircraft near Area 51 north of Las Vegas, the 8 News Now Investigators have learned.

The “incident” concerns an aircraft from Creech Air Force Base, which is located about 40 miles northeast of the Las Vegas valley. Staff at the base administer and pilot military drones.

No one was hurt and no property was damaged in the incident, according to a base spokesperson, who did not provide further information.

On Tuesday, Sept. 23, the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) issued a temporary flight restriction (TFR) for a five-nautical-mile area east of Area 51, the classified Air Force facility near Groom Lake. The TFR cites “national security” as the reason for the restriction near Highway 375.

The TFR warned pilots not to fly in the area unless the FAA authorizes them. The restrictions were scheduled to expire on Oct. 1.
