MILITARY/SPACE FORCE/TRUMP AS PRESIDENT: “President Donald Trump, a noted conspiracy theorist, is skeptical of UFOs. But his Space Force could come in handy: Senators want answers about UFOs sighted by Navy pilots. By UFO, we mean unidentified flying object and not necessarily aliens. They’re probably not aliens, but the unidentified objects recorded by Navy pilots and written about twice by The New York Times in recent years have now led to briefings for the Senate Intelligence Committee and President Trump…Trump told ABC News he’d also had a meeting on the subject, but that he’s skeptical the fast-moving objects are anything extraterrestrial…The government has been quietly studying the possibility of UFOs for decades. Sen. Harry Reid, the former Senate majority leader and Nevada Democrat, helped push for a secretive Pentagon program — Advanced Aviation Threat Identification Program — that’s been studying the possibility of extraterrestrial UFOs.”
