Background

Dylan Borland is a former U.S. Air Force "1N1" geospatial intelligence specialist (2010–2013) who later worked as a senior analyst for BAE Systems and Intrepid Solutions. He testified under oath to the House Oversight Task Force on the Declassification of Federal Secrets on 9 September 2025, describing a 2012 triangular-craft sighting at Langley Air Force Base and later exposure to classified legacy crash-retrieval information while in a Special Access Program role. He says he met AARO in March 2023 and testified to the Intelligence Community Inspector General in August 2023. In 2026 he became the centre of a dispute over whether that testimony was leaked. No official body has confirmed his claims.

Reported claims (secondary / anonymous-sourced)

  • 2026-08-11 – Liberation Times (Christopher Sharp), citing Corbell's public claim and unnamed ODNI sources – reported that Borland "corroborated the allegation that classified whistleblower testimony was intentionally disclosed to Corbell." The IC Inspector General's office said it "can neither confirm nor deny the existence of any pending or ongoing investigation" and that unauthorised disclosure of a whistleblower's identity "may also warrant referral to FBI". Liberation Times
  • 2026-05 – per Jeremy Corbell, citing an unnamed ODNI investigator, at McMinnville UFO Fest – Corbell said he was told Borland had described to the IC IG a program called "Rubik's Cube" and drawn a pyramid-shaped power source. Borland neither confirmed nor denied (above). The IC OIG statement of 11 August is the only official response. Recap
  • 2026-03-27 – Liberation Times, citing Corbell and unnamed ODNI sources – named Borland among whistleblowers allegedly disparaged in SCIF discussions linked to the ODNI Director's Initiative Group inquiry, without specifics. ODNI said SCIF discussions do not of themselves confer whistleblower protections. Liberation Times
