UFOs have been reported by military pilots since WWII. Only now the press is interested. Why?

Distract from the dem purge?
Why obviously, to prepare us for the upcoming reveal of our new alien ‘friends’ who will tell us how they’re so eager to help us cure cancer and eradicate poverty and all this other wonderful stuff, just as soon as we turn in all our scary weapons and embrace the socialist hive mind.
:P
(Is it just me or does Zuck look like an alien breeding experiment?)
