''' U.F.O'S UNLESS

 ULTRA '''

THIS MONTH A YOUTUBER AND A podcast host named Brian Tyler Cohen asked Barack Obama about aliens - and the former president indicated that they exist while disavowing any personal knowledge of extraterrestrial secrets.

This led to a subsequent clarification from Obama that he just meant that aliens are probably out there somewhere. [ It's a big universe! ]

But the dominoes were set in motion. At a White House news conference, Karline Leavitt was asked about  online rumours that Donald Trump has an alien speech ready to go [ she denied knowledge ].

Then Peter Doocy of Fox News asked Trump himself about the Obama alien comments, yielding a weird claim that the former president had revealed classified information and then, via social media, a Trumpian pledge to declassify everything related to ''these highly complex, but extremely interesting and important matters.''

I would bet against this supposed disclosures delivering more than a lot of heavily redacted teases.

But now that the press corps has warmed to the subject, it's worth setting out the reality-based questions that a declassified effort could help us resolve and that administration officials can be reasonably pressed about.

FIRST, does the United States military possess more classified aerial footage like the videos from the U.S. Navy jets that The New York Times published in 2017, setting in motion the current age of heightened interest in strange vessels over skies and seas?

If so, how much more? Is the government more persuaded today than in the past by the attempted debunkings and optical illusion explanations of these mysteries?

Or is there still a widely held view that they offer evidence of '' technologies that we don't have and frankly that we are not capable of defending against,'' as the former director of national intelligence and current C.I.A. director, John Ratcliffe, put it in a 2021 interview.

SECOND, why has the national security state produced a steady supply of would-be whistle blowers who claim to have encountered some sort of hidden ''legacy program'' dedicated to contact with nonhuman intelligence?

Are these figures liars? Are they self deceived, perhaps through some kind of misunderstanding of normal classified programs?

Is this all just circulations of rumours associated with the former Senate majority leader, Harry Reid, and his creation of a clandestine U.F.O studying group inside the Pentagon?

Is it possible that some permanent government disinformation apparatus exists to encourage false  U.F.O, related beliefs in government officials? And if so, is it part of continuing efforts to deceive the public as well?

THIRD, why have the prominent United States senators, led by the minority leader, Chuck Schumer, and the resolutely vanilla South Dakota Republican Mike Rounds, repeatedly behaved and sometimes spoken as though they believe the national security state is concealing information or material related to this subject from elected officials?

And if so, is it part of a continuing effort to deceive the public as well.

What is the concrete motivation for the measure encouraging '' unidentified aerial phenomena '' disclosure that Rounds and Schumer have put forward repeatedly and so far unsuccessfully?

Why did Rounds stand on the Senate floor and seemingly entertain the possibility of '' recovered U.A.P. material or biological remains '' being in the hands of private-sector entities?

FOURTH : Is there truth to the claims that government agencies or officials are in contact with self-described U.F.O experiences or pursuing other paranormal threads?

Is the intelligence community's Cold War-era research into paranormal subjects continuing? If so, what explains or justifies this effort?
