Trump's UFO Disclosure Pledge Sparks Renewed Online Speculation
Former US President Donald Trump's recent announcement regarding the release of government files on aliens and unidentified flying objects has triggered a resurgence of interest in controversial remarks made by conservative commentator Candace Owens. In a statement on Truth Social, Trump declared his intention to direct federal agencies, including the Secretary of War, to begin identifying and releasing materials related to extraterrestrial life, unidentified aerial phenomena (UAP), and UFOs, citing what he described as tremendous public interest.
Owens' 'Non-Human' Claims Gain New Traction
Against this backdrop, an older social media clip featuring Candace Owens has circulated widely across X in recent days. In the video, Owens speculated that prominent technology figures, including Elon Musk, Peter Thiel, and Sam Altman, were "not human" and claimed there was "something wrong" with them. These remarks were originally made during a broader discussion about artificial intelligence and rapid technological advances, drawing criticism at the time as conspiratorial.
The convergence of Trump's UFO announcement and the resurfacing of Owens' comments has fueled fresh online debate and speculation. Neither Musk nor Altman has responded to the revived claims, though both have previously spoken publicly about AI risks and future technologies, without any connection to alien life.
Growing Public Interest in UFO Phenomena
Interest in UFOs and UAPs has grown significantly in recent years, particularly after US authorities examined reports of unusual aircraft sightings. While officials have acknowledged that some incidents remain unexplained, no confirmed evidence of extraterrestrial origin has been presented to the public. Recent congressional hearings and declassified reports have kept the topic in the public eye, with Trump's latest announcement stirring that interest once again.
The renewed focus raises questions about what, if anything, will be released from government files and how it might impact public perception. For now, the online discourse continues to blend political announcements with speculative theories, highlighting the enduring fascination with both technological advancement and the possibility of extraterrestrial life.
