Former President Reveals Truth Behind Extraterrestrials, But Not Everyone Is Buying It

Former president Barack Obama revealed that aliens are “real,” but with one major caveat.

Former President Barack Obama Claims Aliens Are 'Real'

Obama made the surprising revelation during an interview with Brian Tyler Cohen in an interview released on the latter’s No Lies podcast on Saturday, Feb. 14. When asked by Cohen if extraterrestrials are real and where they’re being kept, the former president responded, “They’re real, but I haven’t seen them.” And while Obama didn’t elaborate on his meaning of “real” or how he knows such information, he did debunk some popular misinformation regarding space aliens.

“They’re not being kept in Area 51, there’s no underground facility, unless there’s this enormous conspiracy and they hid it from the president of the United States,” he said.

Area 51 is an extremely secretive Air Force base located in Groom Lake, NV, which has long been rumored to house aliens and their technology. The interest surrounding the possibility of extraterrestrials has seen an increase in recent years as the government has made available reports that chronicle mysterious aircraft sightings throughout America. In 2021, the Pentagon declassified and released three clips which purported to show extraterrestrial aircraft passing through the sky as servicemen reacted to the site.

But Some Were Apprehensive About the Claims

But not everyone was so sure that Obama was telling the truth. “Apparently, our former President never had any serious advanced physics studies. The physical exposure during the time & distance necessary to travel from the nearest star would preclude any form of intelligence life from arriving here,” penned one naysayer. “Sadly, there are no aliens here now or ever. The laws of physics simply won’t allow other forms of life to travel the massive distances needed. Between radiation, the lack of gravity, and the years of travel needed, being in the thousands, so no, we will never encounter aliens on this Earth. No mass can travel faster than the speed of light; simple math affirms my position.”

“You could very well be right,” responded a user calling themselves Voice of Reason, “but I personally believe that it’s feasible for entities that we’re unfamiliar with to go from one dimension to another.”

This isn’t the first time Obama has hinted at the existence of space aliens since he left office back in 2017. “When it comes to aliens, there are some things I just can’t tell you on air,” Obama told James Corden during a 2021 interview on The Late Show. “But what is true — and I’m actually being serious here — is that there’s footage and records of objects in the skies that we don’t know exactly what they are.”
