- President Trump accused former President Barack Obama of disclosing classified information about extraterrestrials while offering no evidence.
- The allegation followed an interview on Brian Tyler Cohen's podcast in which Obama said extraterrestrials are real but not kept at Area 51, and Obama later posted that no evidence of contact emerged during his presidency.
- Area 51 is a highly classified Nevada Air Force facility long subject to speculation, and CIA releases in 2013 showed it mainly served as a test site for secret spy planes.
- Recent Pentagon investigations and a 2024 report found no evidence of alien technology or crash landings; the White House declined further comment and Obama's office did not immediately respond.
They're real, but I haven't seen them, and they're not being kept in Area 51. There's no underground facility unless there's some enormous conspiracy and it was hidden from the president of the United States.— Barack Obama said during an interview with podcast host Brian Tyler Cohen about extraterrestrials.
