Republican senators demanded greater transparency from President Joe Biden after receiving a confidential briefing on Feb. 14 concerning several mysterious flying “objects” (UFOs) shot down over the United States and Canada.

The briefing followed an announcement by Pentagon officials on Feb. 12 that an object floating over Lake Huron was shot down, making it the fourth device to be targeted since the president ordered a strike on a Chinese surveillance balloon earlier in the month.
