Trump touts release of UFO files: 'Have fun and enjoy'

President Donald Trump on Friday touted his administration's release of the first batch of files related to unidentified flying objects (UFOs) and urged readers to draw their own conclusions from the data.

The existence of aliens and the government's knowledge of extraterrestrial life have been the subject of speculation for decades, with many conspiracy theories asserting that the government has hidden the evidence permeating popular culture.

"As for my promise to you, the Department of War has released the first tranche of the UFO/UAP files to the Public for their review and study," Trump posted on Truth Social. "In an effort for Complete and Maximum Transparency, it was my Honor to direct my Administration to identify and provide Government files related to Alien and Extraterrestrial Life, Unidentified Aerial Phenomena, and Unidentified Flying Objects.'

"Whereas previous Administrations have failed to be transparent on this subject, with these new Documents and Videos, the people can decide for themselves, 'WHAT THE HELL IS GOING ON?' Have Fun and Enjoy!" he added.

The administration released the first batch of documents on Friday.
