The Insider
The Insider is an anonymous individual claiming to be a participant in classified UAP-related programs for over 30 years. The Insider first made contact with Michael Herrera after seeing Herrera's testimony at Steven Greer's 2023 National Press Club event, sending an encrypted text message to Dr. Greer that referenced knowledge of what Herrera had experienced. The Insider subsequently requested an in-person meeting with Herrera and, through Greer's introduction, arranged for Herrera to be transported to a secure facility where The Insider allegedly showed Herrera underground facilities as proof of identity and disclosed information about black UAP programs.

Alleged Disclosures
According to Michael Herrera's account, The Insider revealed:
- The existence of two groups studying UAP within the USG: the "Blue Group" (with congressional oversight including AARO, AATIP, Project Blue Book) and the "Black Group" (founded in the 1940s to reverse engineer non-human intelligence technology, operating without oversight)
- The Black Group has successfully reverse-engineered NHI craft to an unknown degree and uses them for operations
- EMP-like weapons have been developed to disable UAP for crash retrieval purposes
- The program recruits individuals with psionic abilities (referred to as "P3") to interface with NHI technology, often from third-world nations
- The operation Michael witnessed in Indonesia involved transporting these P3 recruits
Book Project
The Insider is reportedly writing a book titled "Sentinels of Ether" through a ghost writer, mixing truth and fiction in a manner similar to Tom DeLonge's "Secret Machines." The Insider claims to be playing "4D chess on DOPSR" by intentionally including deep black classified information to test whether pre-publication review will flag it, using the government's response as inverse intelligence.
Credibility Concerns
Investigator Joey Is Not My Name verified through objective data that Michael Herrera was indeed transported to a secure facility for a meeting, lending some credibility to the existence of The Insider. However, the truthfulness of The Insider's disclosures remains unverified and could constitute disinformation similar to the CIA's campaign against Paul Benowitz in 1989. The Insider's motivations — whether genuinely pro-disclosure or part of a psychological operation — remain unclear.
