Trump Is Dropping Major UFO Files: Here’s What You Need To Know

Jingle jingle, look over here, JINGLE JINGLE.

What’s that? The Iran War, no, no, over here, looook, UFOs, you love UFOs: JINGLE JINGLE. Oop, no, those are the Epstein Files, you don’t want those how about the ‘UFO Files’ ooooh JINGLE JINGLE.

“We found many very interesting documents, I must say, and the first releases will ​begin very, very soon so you can go out ​and see if that phenomena is correct,” said Trump at a Turning Point USA rally.

As Reuters explains, “Trump in February directed U.S. agencies to start ​releasing government files on UFOs, unidentified aerial phenomena, and possible extraterrestrial life, citing strong public interest in the issue.”

But please understand that 83% of the time people in power only do things that benefits them. So when someone does something that you believe is a good thing or the right thing, just ask yourself how does it benefit them and does that change the nature of their actions.

Take UFOs. It seems bizarre that the government (famously always the bad guy in the UFO narrative, often depicted as a shady organization hiding every alien thing in every movie ever) is now so pro-UFOs, holding senate hearings and releasing videos and just giving a lot of general chat around releasing stuff.

Like, if it’s a government cover up then who could they possibly be fighting? Themselves? Why would there be any delay in any answers?

But the explanation is simple. There aren’t any answers.

The government loves UFOs right now because it’s a topic in which it’s so easy to seem like you’re doing something good. People want more blurry videos to guess at? Great, we’ve got TONS of those. We can just drip feed you that if that’s what you want and then it looks like we’re doing our jobs, right?

(Some even argue it’s useful counter-intelligence. The public want to believe these weather balloons are aliens? Great. We won’t deny it. Let them. Sows more disinformation for the Russians and Chinese to chew on. A free, crowd-sourced smoke screen.)

Especially when things aren’t so positive now and we need some good press. Congratulations. Even by talking about it, once again, we all just got played.

As a final note, I’ll leave you with the ending of that short Reuters article. It’s so blunt and to the point and says everything that needs to be said, I love it.

“Trump, for his part, has said he also has not seen ​evidence of aliens ​and remains ⁠uncertain about their existence.”

“In recent years, the Pentagon has investigated reports of UFOs, and senior military ​leaders said in 2022 they found no evidence ​to ⁠suggest that aliens had visited Earth or crash-landed here.”

“A 2024 Pentagon report said U.S. government investigations since the end of World ⁠War Two ​had found no evidence of extraterrestrial ​technology and most sightings were misidentified ordinary objects and phenomena.”

That’s it. That’s all that needs saying, guys. Let’s move on with our days/lives, please.
