<p>President Donald Trump claimed on Thursday that former President Barack Obama had shared &#8220;classified information&#8221; when he stated on a recent podcast that aliens &#8220;are real.&#8221;</p>
<p>Trump was speaking to reporters aboard Air Force One when Fox News White House Correspondent Peter Doocy raised the topic, saying, &#8220;Barack Obama said aliens are real. Have you seen any evidence of non-human visitors to Earth?&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;He gave classified information, he’s not supposed to be doing that,&#8221; <a href="https://x.com/pdoocy/status/2024571710754717784">Trump replied</a>. When asked whether that meant that aliens were, in fact, real, Trump demurred and said he wasn&#8217;t certain whether &#8220;they’re real or not.&#8221;</p>
<p class="ArticleBodyText_articleBodyContent__17wqE typography_articleBody___5jDr paywall" data-component="paragraph">&#8220;I can tell you he gave classified information, he’s not supposed to be doing that,&#8221; Trump continued. “He made a big mistake. He took it out of classified information.&#8221;</p>
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet">
<p dir="ltr" lang="en">🚨President Trump says he may declassify the alien files, Obama revealed classified information</p>
<p>Doocy: “Barack Obama said aliens are real. Have you seen any evidence of non-human visitors to Earth?”</p>
<p>Trump: “He gave classified information. He’s not supposed to be doing that.”… <a href="https://t.co/9DbffHyVn2">pic.twitter.com/9DbffHyVn2</a></p>

<p class="gnt_ar_b_p">On the topic of extraterrestrial life, Trump was ambivalent: &#8220;No, I don&#8217;t have an opinion on it. I never talk about it. A lot of people do. A lot of people believe it.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;Do you believe it, Peter?&#8221; Trump turned the question back to Doocy, who took a different tack.</p>
<p>&#8220;The president can declassify anything he wants to,&#8221; Doocy prompted.</p>
<p>&#8220;Maybe I’ll get him out of trouble,&#8221; Trump said. &#8220;I may get him out of trouble by declassifying.&#8221;</p>
<p data-component="paragraph">Obama made the comments in question during a recent appearance on the left-leaning “No Lie with Brian Tyler Cohen” podcast — and in addition to confirming the existence of extraterrestrial life, Obama revealed that to his knowledge, there were no aliens being kept in underground bunkers at Area 51. He also admitted that he had not personally seen any aliens.</p>
<p data-component="paragraph">“They’re real, but I haven’t seen them,” the former president told Cohen. “They&#8217;re not being kept in &#8230; Area 51. There&#8217;s no underground facility unless there&#8217;s this enormous conspiracy and they hid it from the President of the United States.”</p>
<p data-component="paragraph">Obama&#8217;s comments sparked enough conversation across social media that he took to <a href="https://www.instagram.com/p/DUy9E_UD9RR/">Instagram</a> to clarify his remarks later.</p>
<p data-component="paragraph">“I was trying to stick with the spirit of the speed round, but since it’s gotten attention let me clarify,&#8221; Obama posted, going on to claim that he wasn&#8217;t really confirming the existence of alien life so much as he was saying he believed it was out there.</p>
<p data-component="paragraph">&#8220;Statistically, the universe is so vast that the odds are good there’s life out there,&#8221; he said. &#8220;But the distances between solar systems are so great that the chances we’ve been visited by aliens is low, and I saw no evidence during my presidency that extraterrestrials have made contact with us. Really!”</p>
