This week, amid a flurry of UFO disclosure activity, The Cosmic Report rounds up President Trump's decision to make public alien documents, Obama’s quickfire “aliens are real” claims, as well as other leading voices in the UAP community.
Like a cosmic crescendo, it was as if the week were building up the cherry on top for the White House to finally agree to make public government classified files on aliens.
Even if Trump was rather non-committal in his personal convictions in claiming “I don’t have an opinion on it. I don’t talk about it like a lot of people do,” – the suspense builds to see exactly what documents will see the light of day.
Reality intrudes
Trump’s pivot comes in spite of prominent whistleblower Lue Elizondo's legal representative, Todd McMurtry, posting on X that “there will never be disclosure” and that “no aliens will ever step forward and say hello.”
Whatever the reason for the post, whether exhaustion at the build up to this “smoking gun” moment, or scepticism at the hype surrounding Obama's interview, it certainly got people talking.
The post drew up resistance with some followers in the community:
Wrong, there will be disclosure, but not like most people expect, and it will be traumatic, especially for those clinging to power. McMurtry „forgot“ to mention the third party involved in this equation. Matthew Brown didn‘t, and rightly so.

And whichever “third party” gatekeeper of information this reply refers to – perhaps a private sector defense contractors safeguarding the information – the intrigue deepens nevertheless.
Beyond the pale
Also this week, congressman and prominent UFOlogist Eric Burlison, demonstrated a dichotomy of approaches on a Newsmax TV interview, with Rob Finnerty.
Burlison couldn’t personally verify where a confidential, cordoned-off UAP could be located, while Greer was quite clear that it’s in the mountains outside Seoul. Their talking heads juxtaposed varying layers of transparency.
However much one publicly espouses depends on how tightly they’ve been instructed to hold the line. Controlled disclosure is one thing, and freewheeling speculation is another.
Much more sweeping assertions were made by psychic Uri Geller, who was riding the coattails of Obama’s “aliens are real” comments. Geller intriguingly dug out photos taken some 50 years ago of an alleged trip he took to South Korea, with US investigators. This also came with opposition as one reply questioned “Why would they take you there Yuri?”
And as context matters, so does the fact that Geller used “animated images” – could be AI – of aliens stored in a freezer, coupled with conflated ideas of UFO landings in both the US and South Korea. But whether you see Geller as feasible, or flippant, at least he got the community talking.
