The UFO community has been wanting Trump to and suggesting Trump would do this for years. And at least on Reddit, they can’t stand anyone pointing out that it’s all just to garner attention and support from a fringe base. And to sow distrust in government institutions. (they won’t tell you the truth, but I will etc)

I was banned for pointing this out because it was “off topic”.

I hope this at least brings real proper reporting and debunking to the subject. Fringe online media, and conservative mainstream media already cover this just to placate their base. And they can’t call it bullshit, or offer balanced reporting on it because they will offend the people they are trying to rope in.

And hey, if it turns out the US really does know stuff they have tried to keep from the public, that would be cool. But after following this during the pandemic era, like many people did, I came to the conclusion that most of it is rehashed bullshit and circular reporting and grifters telling stories for attention. It’s also clear that the topic is exploited for ulterior motives by governments. Someone elsewhere in this thread listed a few concrete examples. And this looks like this will be the largest such exploitation of the topic ever.

Also, I love how the slug for this story is just “trump” with a long string of numbers. It really represents the news cycles of our time.
