  1. Ah the Susan gough routine.

    Can’t make the statement if he subs out “extraterrestrial” with “NHI”

  2. I believe him. I thought he was just offering his opinion from the start, not giving any sort of official disclosure.

    That’s not walking back anything.

    That’s him clarifying what he meant when he said they are real in the first place.

  4. He was told by people much more powerful than him to retract his statement…  

    There’s a plan here…  A big one…  And EVERYONE “on top” is in on it… Left, Right, Up, Down… They’re all in on it ….

    Edit…  I mean, there is no plan….  And I retract my previous statement…  Consume, Breed, Gamble & become dependant upon technology….   😁 🪐 👽

    Edit again… I mean, DONT do that.. It’s not worth it!!  UNLESS that’s what your “soul” truly desires, then it *might* be worth it….  Free Will yo!

  5. In Colberts interview he said ” cant talk about it,sorry” so. Ot really buying this, this has nothing to do with area 51 and conspiracies

    For anyone who has baseline reading comprehension skills, this is in no way walking back anything he said.

  7. In his other interviews he said “can’t talk about it” and in this interview he said it’s difficult to gain access to some of the agencies’ information. By default, on paper, as president he should be able to talk freely.

    But he can’t since he’s not in control of this, and there are other groups in the government more powerful than him that govern the information related to the UAP topic. These facts alone indicate a “Deep State” which governs this information.

  8. thats how I took it but many people on the post yesterday didnt and on other subs. but knowing how people are in denial on this sub they won’t believe this

  9. Not buying it, Obama. Two interesting things:

    1. He took up lots of time to refute the Area 51 stories rather than qualify his statement that aliens are real, especially considering all answers he gave previously throughout the years has always been “I can neither confirm nor deny.”

    2. He refuted the Area 51 conspiracy but not the alien conspiracy as a whole. Why not refute the entire conspiracy??

    He’s uncomfortable lying. He chose his words carefully. There was no sense of urgency to answer. He had plenty of time to qualify his statement and instead used that time differently.

  10. Of course he “walked it back” because the conspiracy nuts and science illiterates that populate the internet don’t know how to interpret anything ***sensibly***. Sure there’s probably aliens somewhere. But if they’re 10 million light years away, it’s irrelevant. If they’re 6 light years away, it’s irrelevant.

  11. “Wait till Grusch is finally allowed into a SCIF!! He’ll tell us everything, like how Obama knows that aliens are on Earth, because he used to hang out with them and ride in their UFOs. Aliens were even teaching him how to fly their craft!”

    >I saw no evidence during my presidency that extraterrestrials have made contact with us.

    Two qualifiers in that statement:

    * saw – did he hear anything?
    * during my Presidency – it’s been 12 years since then

    Called it. I knew this is what he was referring to when he said aliens were real. I also think he’s being truthful about never seeing anything while in office because if the past 5 years have shown us anything, is that the US Government is full of absolute idiots who don’t know their ass from a hole in the ground.

  14. He’s trying to play off that we do know aliens exist and we are them. We are not from earth originally and when we came here, we wiped out all of the Neanderthals. Which is why there is no missing link as we did not evolve from anything on earth.

  15. I mean we’ve already discovered aliens though..

    We’ve found non terrestrial organisms on the outside of the international space station for example.

    Like he said the odds of us being alone are insanely low.
