Following a busy week on the UFO front, President Donald Trump said that he was ordering files on aliens and their craft — to the extent we have them — released to the public.
The announcement, which occurred on Thursday night, came after a week of speculation following a podcast appearance from formerPresident Barack Obamain which he said he thought aliens were “real” but “not being kept in Area 51.”
Well, if Trump gets his way, now you’ll get to hear about them firsthand.
“Based on the tremendous interest shown, I will be directing the Secretary of War, and other relevant Departments and Agencies, to begin the process of identifying and releasing Government files related to alien and extraterrestrial life, unidentified aerial phenomena (UAP), and unidentified flying objects (UFOs), and any and all other information connected to these highly complex, but extremely interesting and important, matters,” Trump said in a post onTruth Social.
