He did do this during the first term. There wasn’t anything interesting, but it did distract the conspiracy folks.

Honestly, if there were alien craft zipping around, I can imagine why no government would want to disclose them. It would basically be an announcement of, "these damn craft are flying around the atmosphere and the space around Earth. They're utterly beyond anything we're capable of. We're not sure if they're aliens, time travelers, beings from another dimension, literal angels or demons, or something even stranger. But we are utterly at their mercy. They're spying on us constantly, for purposes unknown. Oh, and occasionally they'll just abduct people and carry them off for God-knows-what reason. I'm sorry, but there is literally nothing we or any human being can do about this. They're basically gods to us, and we know next to nothing about them, where they come from, or why they're here."

What leader would ever want to give that speech? I don't consider it likely we are being visited by non-human intelligences. But if we were, it wouldn't be anything like Roswell and Area 51. We wouldn't have a base full of downed or crashed alien craft. They simply wouldn't crash, and we would have no ability to shoot them down. A real announcement of alien visitors wouldn't be the reveal of some vast secret government project, a revealing of secret strength. It would be us saying, "we've been working on this problem for nearly a century, and we've learned nothing. All we know is that they're there, and we can't do a damn thing about it." It would a confession of weakness and utter helplessness, a government openly admitting it's completely powerless to protect its people from an unknown outside threat. Can you imagine a president telling the public, "yeah, you might get abducted by aliens. Sorry, that just happens sometimes. There's nothing we can do about it."

It would represent a complete shattering of our species' sense of value and security. And voters tend not to like politicians who tell them the unvarnished truth.

Racist aliens!

He was abducted on to one of their ships, and immediately started molesting them, mistaking their small forms for human children.

Here we are, poised to enter intergalactic war, all because the US president raped some alien babies. The guy just can't help himself!

The aliens took him to epstein's island.

I'm guessing he grabbed a pussy and pulled it out Mortal Kombat style.

Are the Aliens going to help me get rid of the Rich corrupt people? No? Then I don't care about them.

Get the arrests in and then release the alien files as a treat for doing a good job with the arrests

The president of the US also said that tariffs are paid by the seller

So, you know, not a high credibility

Because Republicans in Congress and every single conservative voter have chosen to shield him from the consequences of his actions.

They are ALL traitors to our nation.

Because Biden wanted to run against him again, so he appointed Garland as AG.

Is it me or are people just not that bothered about aliens, compared to in the 90s?

Tbf, I like this distraction better that bombing Iran.

As a Californian, it's not just the DoE, especially on a scale of decades. My girlfriend went to public school in Texas and had shit like iPads and a lunch cafeteria with actual restaurants. I went to public school in California, mostly (entirely?) after it was gutted by the Governator, and had shit like textbooks shared across classes with swastikas and 8=D drawn all over the pages and a lunch cafeteria that served frozen pizzas microwaved in the plastic and frozen milk that still had ice-chunks in it.

Hell yeah, power moves. He could be dumb enough to fall for it.

You should be a political strategist.

Love your username

Speak for yourself lol

They had [REDACTED] alien children Donald Jessica Trump personally [REDACTED] on an island in [REDACTED].

I dunno about that last bit, seems like they are totally ok with the pedophilia, murdering children and sex trafficking. In fact, they seem to think those things are pretty damn cool.

Two consenting males getting it on behind closed doors - now THAT is a bridge too far!!

I don't think that's what they are worried about the base finding out. I think he had sex with boys too... That might be too much for the non Catholic base.

Remember when people thought that there was a video out there where someone peed on him or something that that's what's gonna finish him? Those were the days.

I think a video of him blowing Bubba would be worse in the eyes of his base.

Yeah but MAGA apparently have the memory capacity (collectively) of a single gamboozia so it should be new news for them

Within the next few years America is going to start importing most of its pop culture. The American media industry is dying. Good riddance.

All the future super spy movies will be about government pedo rings....... ugh get ready to have nonstop PTSD

Well who can forget '' Roswell Case Closed'' https://media.defense.gov/2010/Oct/27/2001330219/-1/-1/0/AFD-101027-030.pdf If this is the level of truth we are going to get...who can blame us for remaining skeptical of the Government..

Chronological Anachronism: The report attributes "alien bodies" to anthropomorphic dummies used in Project High Dive, which did not begin until 1953. Skeptics argue it is a fallacy to use events from the mid-1950s to explain a widely reported incident that occurred in July 1947.

The "Memory Consolidation" Fallacy: The USAF proposed that witnesses merged memories of different events (Project Mogul in 1947, dummy drops in the 1950s, and a 1956 KC-97 crash) into a single 1947 narrative. Critics argue this dismisses firsthand testimony by assuming a collective, decades-long memory failure among numerous unrelated witnesses.

False Equivalence of Physical Descriptions: The report suggests that "alien" features, such as bulbous heads, were actually injured airmen like Capt. Dan D. Fulgham, who suffered severe swelling after a 1959 balloon accident. Critics point out that describing a human officer as an "alien" is a logical stretch, especially when the timing is over a decade off.

The "Moving Goalposts" Argument: Some researchers claim the USAF has changed its official explanation four times (crashed disc, weather balloon, Project Mogul, and finally dummies), which they view as a pattern of circular reasoning or shifting narratives to maintain a cover-up. Selective Evidence: The report identifies "hieroglyphics" on the debris as poorly stenciled labels or flowered tape from the Project Mogul balloon. Critics argue this selectively ignores witness descriptions of indestructible, metallic debris that could not be cut or burned.
