When President Trump posted on his Truth Social website Thursday evening that he was directing the government to release records tied to aliens and UFOs, understandably, the reaction was immediate excitement, speculation, and a fresh wave of “disclosure” chatter across social media.
However, buried in the adrenaline rush of the government revealing its UFO secrets is a quieter—and far more consequential—detail. President Trump’s statement, as written, does not clearly order the declassification of any such records (if they exist).
So, is Trump really set to release all existing alien and UFO files? Not so fast.
