Blink 182’s Tom DeLonge is defending the government.

In a new post on social media, DeLonge talked about officials who work with UFO cases saying, “Like most when you go down the rabbit hole, I too was ignorant. People in Gov working the real UFO problem are patriots, morally sound, and doing the best they can. Some made errors, worked in an ambiguous lack of oversight. But what would we each do if we were burdened with this.”

Someone replied to his post arguing that the truth shouldn’t be considered a burden, and that, “it should be shared because it belongs to all of us.”

DeLonge then responded, “I agree. But, like any other emergency, leadership needs to figure out what the hell is going on before they run out and say something that is wrong, or that they don’t have a plan to deal with it. That’s my take.”

In July, DeLonge was mentioned during an Oversight Committee where U.S. Air Force officer and former intelligence official David Grusch testified that the Pentagon recovered an aircraft with pilots that were described as “non-human biologics.”

Believe it or not the former commanding officer of the U.S. Navy, David Favor credited DeLonge and his To the Stars Academy during his testimony.

“It was this organization that pressed the issue with leading Industry experts and USG officials, worked with Leslie Keane, Ralph Blumenthal and Helene Cooper to publish the articles in the NYT in Dec 2017 admitting the USG was looking at UAPs and removed the Stigma of the UFO topic, which led to us being here today,” said Favor.

When the news broke DeLonge shared a photo on social media that reads “Tom was right.”
