"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 told reporters aboard Air Force One that Obama "gave classified information" and wasn't "supposed to be doing that," adding that he could get him "out of trouble" by declassifying the relevant files."
"Obama said in a tongue-in-cheek exchange with podcaster Brian Tyler Cohen last week that aliens are "real" and that they're not "being kept" at Area 51. He later clarified in an Instagram post that there was no evidence during his presidency that aliens "have made contact with us.""
President Donald Trump directed federal agencies to identify and release government files related to alien and extraterrestrial life, unidentified aerial phenomena (UAP), and unidentified flying objects (UFOs). Trump accused former President Barack Obama of discussing classified material about extraterrestrial life and suggested declassification could address that issue. Obama previously said aliens are "real" and not "being kept" at Area 51, then clarified no evidence of contact during his presidency. Prediction markets such as Polymarket allow traders to bet on official confirmation of extraterrestrial life, with millions poured into those markets and potential large payouts if declassification occurs. Aliens remain a persistent niche in betting circles.
