Donald Trump tells people to 'have fun and enjoy' as thousands of UFO files released
Donald Trump has told people to ‘have fun and enjoy’ the thousands of UFO videos that the government released.
The US government’s Department of Defence released thousands of files surrounding unexplained aerial sightings by the US military, astronauts with NASA, and any eyewitness accounts over the last 80 years.
Some of the sightings include an Unidentified Aerial Phenomena (UAP) with a ‘football shaped body,’ which was spotted near Japanese waters.

Another sighting, taken during the Apollo 17 mission to the moon in 1972, appears to show three unexplained dots on the lunar surface.
Some of the sightings have been as recent as 2025, when an unidentified object flew over an unidentified space in the US last year.
US Secretary of Defence/War, Pete Hegseth, said that the declassification of the files is a step towards bringing ‘unprecedented transparency regarding our government’s understanding of Unidentified Anomalous Phenomena.’

‘These files, hidden behind classifications, have long fueled justified speculation – and it’s time the American people see it for themselves,’ Mr Hegseth said.
Mr. Trump added in a statement: ‘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!’
Mr. Trump previously spoke about the prices for the upcoming World Cup, which will be held in the US, Canada, and Mexico — and has seen controversially high prices for matches stateside.

It was confirmed that pitchside tickets at the World Cup final would cost upwards of $ 2 million (€ 1.7 million) — with Mr. Trump even admitting that he wouldn’t pay such ludicrous prices.
‘I did not know that number,’ Mr. Trump told the New York Post in a phone interview. ‘I would certainly like to be there, but I wouldn’t pay for it either, to be honest with you.’
Despite this, he has said that he would hope to see his supporters attend the matches, saying: ‘If people from Queens and Brooklyn and all of the people that love Donald Trump can’t go, I would be disappointed, but, you know, at the same time, it’s an amazing success.
‘I would like to be able to have the people who voted for me be able to go.’
