@CITDConference What are the chances I could get a media pass @CITDConference as my TikTok is @anomaly_files" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">tiktok.com/@anomaly_files and I also have a YouTube channel called Anomaly Files as well.

@MrHustleMCR Also, if you are trying to document the event, try applying for a press pass. Going through the proper channels is important. contactinthedesert.com/get-involved/m…

@CITDConference I just spoke to them. Outside of the conference period I can shoot. You guys are in the doc now so I just need an establishing shot of the venue. 👍 Anyway, it’s gonna be my first time and I hear it’s great fun🏆

For the first time, we welcome Jeffrey Nuccetelli to Contact in the Desert A UAP whistleblower who has stepped forward in the interest of accountability & lawful oversight. His decision to speak publicly reflects a commitment to institutional integrity & informed public dialogue

@MrHustleMCR Yes, before or after 5/28/26 - 6/1/26 you can film the venue, just not during the event itself.

@MrHustleMCR No, the hotel does not allow filming on their property, their rules not ours. Photos are OK and encouraged, but there is no filming allowed.

@CITDConference But I can have it in the hotel outside of the CID rooms right? Just photos in the rooms? I’m looking forward to it!🍻

@MrHustleMCR Photos are encouraged, but again Charlie, filming at our event will not be allowed.

@CITDConference Oh I’m definitely bringing a camera now! I need to ask him about his GoFundMe for whistleblowers!

@UAPLuigi We are always looking to diversify our line-up, if you have some recommendations please DM us!

@CITDConference Next year can you please invite more non white speakers? Signed a mixed race experiencer/abductee
