Vice President JD Vance weighed in on the mystery of UFOs this week, suggesting that some unexplained phenomena could reflect "spiritual forces" influencing the physical world.
Speaking with New York Post columnist Miranda Devine on her podcast "Pod Force One," Vance said he hasn’t had time to fully investigate but intends to dig in.
"I can’t allow myself to become so busy that I don’t get to the bottom of this. I will get to the bottom of this," Vance said.
The vice president said the topic often came up in conversations with Secretary of State Marco Rubio, noting that both men have long shared an interest in unidentified anomalous phenomena (UAPs).
"Marco’s actually very interested in this, too," Vance said. "We talked about this back in our Senate days. There’s certainly an interest there, but I haven’t yet had the time to really dig in. Things have been so busy. But all of us put the tinfoil hat on from time to time."
When Devine mentioned that Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard had also expressed openness to the possibility of alien life, Vance framed his own view through faith and mystery.

only if they use chemical propellants, do not use generational craft in hollowed out asteroids, etc. Comment is anthropomorphic in nature, and with trillions upon trillions of stars each with at least one planet, may not represent reality.
Besides, they may just as native to Earth as we are. Consider Phlebas, who was once handsome and tall as you ...
To some commenters, the world consists of counting beans and no amount of persuasion or fact will dissuaded them.
University of Wisconsin-Madison a bastion of utter radical, nutter, leftist, communists, anarchists.
Well, Michael Heiser is not one of them.
God wanted our discoveries related to metals and other materials to come from our own work rather than being handed to us. Basically, we were not mature enough for the technology. Sounds familiar.
Either that, or he’ll sit down with them and make a deal! :-)
Well, there goes 2028 -- although it didn't seem to keep Carter or Slick out of the White House.
Problem is, if the Vice President is wasting time on the topic, it becomes a problem for us as citizens. Not merely a matter of personal curiosity.
That assumes there's nothing to the topic.
If something (whatever it is—aliens, demons, or China) is actually flying over our "secured" airspace with impunity, figuring it out is not a matter of personal curiosity.
“They want to paint you as a kook and this will only give them ammo to do it.”
I believe we will soon reach a point where those who don’t have an interest in spiritual matters, whether it’s membership in an organized religion or a basic acquaintance with mysticism, will be seen as the kooks who lack the discernment and curiosity to see other possibilities.

DaVinci had a ufo in the Mona Lisa. Apparently it was removed.
I miss Heiser and Tom Horn. Good guys.
My bad. It was The Madonna.
I think people in special places know exactly what is going on.
...and not the spiritual forces you want to get friendly with either.
Yes, sounds about right. Also, it might have been partially, to corrupt the royal blood line, that Jesus was to be born from. Satan was still trying to avoid the one who would crush his head.
I believe God exists and that His Creation in a lot bigger than just Earth.
Not, it is not a problem. I want decent and accurate answers myself.
Exactly. It’s pretty arrogant of people here to assume they know more about this subject than Vance, Trump, Tulsi, Rubio, and Ratcliffe.
