<p>President Donald Trump on Friday evening hinted at what’s to come when the War Department releases files relating to UFOs and phenomena of unknown origin.</p>
<p>Speaking at a Turning Point USA event in Phoenix, Trump said: “As you remember, I recently directed the Secretary of War — how good is Pete Hegseth doing, by the way — to begin releasing government files relating to UFOs and unexplained aerial phenomena.”</p>
<p>The president then remarked on how excited the crowd became, saying, “I figured this was a good crowd because I know you people are really into that. I don’t know if I am.”</p>
<p>“So, I’m pleased to report today — I thought I’d save it for this crowd because you’re a little out there — that this process is well underway and we’ve found many very interesting documents, I must say,” Trump continued. “And the first releases will begin very, very soon.”</p>

<p>The hype train for the release of documents and media related to what the United States government knows about UFOs and advanced technology has been gaining steam for months.</p>
<p>Trumps’s executive order on <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/trump-orders-release-of-any-and-all-info-on-aliens-and-ufos" target="_blank" rel="noopener">February 19</a> directed the War Department and other agencies to “begin the process of identifying and releasing Government files related to alien and extraterrestrial life, unidentified aerial phenomena (UAP), and unidentified flying objects (UFOs), and any and all other information connected to these highly complex, but extremely interesting and important, matters.”</p>
<p>In the wake of the president’s order, several congresspeople who have been involved with UFO disclosure efforts applied pressure to the administration to follow through.</p>
<p>Rep. Anna Paulina Luna (R-FL), for example, sent <a href="https://oversight.house.gov/wp-content/uploads/2026/03/UAP-Request-Letter-FINAL.pdf" target="_blank" rel="noopener">a letter</a> to Secretary of War Pete Hegseth requesting the disclosure of 46 known videos believed to be in possession of the U.S. government. She gave an April 14 deadline, but the date came and went without the videos being released.</p>
<p>All of this comes in the wake of multiple blockbuster congressional hearings since 2023 featuring multiple seemingly credible witnesses to UFOs and alleged non-human tech — and even living organisms.</p>
<p>In March, the federal government <a href="https://nypost.com/2026/03/18/us-news/white-house-registers-aliens-gov-domain-name/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">registered</a> alien.gov and aliens.gov — likely in preparation for the publication of files.</p>
<p>The Trump administration appears poised to make some kind of release. While it’s impossible to know with any certainty what documents, imagery, and videos may be published and if they will impact the public’s perception of the topic in any significant way, the momentum is certainly on the side of transparency and disclosure.</p>
