US PresidentDonald Trumpis reported to have been briefed on along-running programmeinvolving what has been described as 'alien technology', according to claims discussed in a recent interview with filmmaker Dan Farah. Farah has been promoting a documentary focused onunidentified anomalous phenomena(UAP).

In theinterview, Farah said individuals with government and intelligence backgrounds had told him that information about non-human technology has been withheld from both the public and, in some cases, elected officials. He described what he called a 'legacy programme' operating since the 1940s, allegedly outside standard congressional oversight.

The assertions remain unverified. US defence officials have repeatedly stated there is no confirmed evidence that the government possesses extraterrestrial technology. The issue continues to draw attention in ongoing discussions about transparency and oversight ofUAP-related information.

Farah said the programme he described involves elements of the military, intelligence agencies and private industry. According to his account, any recovered material may have been transferred to defence contractors, limiting direct oversight by elected officials.

He said some individuals he spoke to believed information had been tightly controlled for decades, with access restricted to a small number of personnel. Others, he added, were reluctant to speak publicly due to concerns about professional or reputational consequences.

These accounts reflect similar claims made previously by whistleblowers and commentators, although none have been substantiated through publicly available evidence.

Farah also suggested that efforts to release UAP-related material are ongoing within government, including attempts to determine what information could be made public. He indicated that some officials support disclosure, while others have raised concerns about security and classification.

There has been no official confirmation that Trump was briefed on any programme involving non-human technology. It remains unclear what level of access any US president has to highly classified UAP-related information.

Questions about presidential awareness of sensitive defence programmes are not uncommon. However, no verified evidence has been presented to show that any administration has overseen or confirmed the existence of extraterrestrial materials.

The discussion comes as members of Congress continue to press for the release of classified UAP material. Republican CongresswomanAnna Paulina Lunahas said the Department of Defense did not meet a 14 April 2026 deadline to provide 46 videos formally logged as 'unidentified'.
