President Trump on Thursday directed his administration to release files on UFOs and any "alien and extraterrestrial life," an issue that has drawn decades of public fascination — and spawned more than a few wild theories.

However, the series Resident Alien was hilarious.

I hope that released isn’t as bumbled as the Epstein files.

That’s why some of us greet this stuff with a big fat “MEH”.

The only aliens I believe in are the ones ICE is after.

Not Aliens, but demons. These demons could be connected to Epstien. These would be particularly vicious demons, likely Nefilium.

1947 was an interesting year.

The Cold War officially began with the Truman Doctrine (March 12)

The National Security Act created the CIA.

Also..

The National Security Act of 1947 was a law enacting major restructuring of the United States government's military and intelligence agencies following World War II. The majority of the provisions of the act took effect on September 18, 1947, the day after the Senate confirmed James Forrestal as the first secretary of defense.

(Forrestal was to die 18 months later under questionable circumstances)

Aside from the unification of the three military departments, the act established the National Security Council and the Central Intelligence Agency, the latter of which is headed by the director of central intelligence.

This act created the Air Force as its own department - coincidentally the government agency responsible for UFO investigations.

Kenneth Arnold’s June 24, 1947 sighting (“flying saucer”) in Washington State near Mount Rainier. The first highly publicized sighting, began the modern UFO phenomenon.

Roswell, NM UFO incident (some say psyop) July 1947

New Mexico - the 47th state


CIA ✔️

Air Force - the main govt agency tasked with UFO investigations - as its own dept ✔️

Flying saucer incident in WA state that kicked off the modern UFO phenomenon ✔️

Roswell incident ✔️

I’m sure it’s a pile of nothing. It’s just too hard to detect signals that aren’t aimed directly at us (or have ours detected). The Inverse Square Law isn’t just a suggestion; it’s the law.

Per the Bible. Genesis 6:13 NIV So God said to Noah “ I am going to put an end to all people, for all the people on earth had corrupted their ways.”
ESV 6:13 and Gos said to Noah, “I have determined to make an end of all flesh, for the earth is filled with violence through them.”
Genesis 6:13 KJV
[13] And God said unto Noah, The end of all flesh is come before me; for the earth is filled with violence through them; and, behold, I will destroy them with the earth.

All flesh does not mean the nephilem survived. Literally all flesh was wiped from the earth except what was in the Ark and I assume fish. The giants of canaan cannot have descended from them. Why they are giants I do not know. If they were descendants, I know the Scripture would have mentioned it.
And I need some background on these “watchers” which sounds like some heretical term to me.

I may very well be wrong on the fallen angels, but the Bible is not very descriptive as to what these “Sons of God” are, and Logically to me it would be fallen angels. My understanding being the fallen angels lost their bodiesduring the flood and now exist as demons without bodies, hence the lack of a reappearence of nephilem. This is entirely my speculation and is not described in Scripture. I have no proof as to whether I am right or wrong or to what decree and I dont care.

Of course it may not be “the Pentagon” that has the interesting information.

Good to see you post something besides some laughable garbage by Sundance.

Regarding the Nephilim, if God intended to wipe them out by the flood, why would you think that he failed in his mission?

More likely, I would think as a true believer, is that if they came down before, they have possibly came down again, later. Or possibly they came UP, rather than down, one, or both times.

How about releasing ALL the Epstein files, the names, the dates, the events. Redact the names of underage victims, everything else THE WORLD MUST SEE. These pervert people must be revealed and taken to court.

UFO’s is just more dust in the publics eyes. I voted for DJT 3 times, campaigned for him, had my van full of flags for months. I am getting the sneaking suspicion that DJT and his past or present relatives are chest deep in the “shit”. Why else over promise and massively undeliver?

God created physics, yet He, Himself, and His angels, can move irrespective of physics. I tend to agree with you, that it’s demons.
