Biden Administration Denies Aliens Were Behind Multiple UFOs Spotted In North America

by

Many North Americans were tuning into this past weekend’s Super Bowl. Elsewhere, others were feeling rising anxiety over the increasing number of UFOs appearing over the continent this month. It all began with the Chinese spy balloon, which was previously shot down under President Joe Biden’s orders. Since then, three more unidentified aerial items have been shot down across Canada and the U.S.

The most recent was first spotted on Saturday (February 11) over Michigan’s Great Lakes. Authorities were quick to remove it, announcing that airspace in the area was shut down on Sunday. The UFO was apparently a potential risk to human air travel, resulting in its removal.

As the news continues to spread, many have been speculating about the potential of alien involvement. In fact, even NORAD Commander and General, Glen Van Herck, has said that he’s “not ruling out the possibility of extraterrestrial activity.” However, on Monday (February 13), the White House made attempts to shut down this narrative in a press conference.

Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre made it clear that the Biden Administration does not believe otherworldly creatures are to blame for the sudden UFO surge. “There is no indication of aliens or extra-terrestrial activity with these recent takedowns. Again, there is no indication of aliens or terrestrial activity with these recent takedowns,” she explicitly stated.

The speaker acknowledged that the White House is aware of the circulating theories. Still, they remain sure that this isn’t an E.T.-related incident. However, as TMZ notes, Jean-Pierre – or National Security who spoke after her – were able to provide clear answers regarding the aerial objects.

During his time on the podium, NSK spokesman John Kirby explained that the U.S. still hasn’t been able to properly assess their latest finds. At this time, the process of collecting material from the discovery location and subsequently studying it is still unfolding. The details he could provide reveal that the latest UFOs “had no discernable communication systems, no propulsion systems and no real maneuvering capabilities.”

The mysterious creations also had no passengers when they went down. The government says they’re not balloon-type crafts, like the Chinese balloon was, though they can’t find an accurate way to describe them just yet. As lawmakers continue to demand answers, Biden has authorized an inter-agency team. This brings the State Department, Defense Department, and Office of National Intelligence together for further investigation on the matter.

Do you think the Biden Administration is being honest about the lack of alien involvement in the UFOs? Sound off in the comments, and check back later for any updates.

Fourth Aerial Object Shot Down Over North America, Lawmakers Demand Answers

by

Much of this past weekend was spent preparing for the Super Bowl. Outside of the world of sports and entertainment, though, several aerial objects have been shot down across North America over the past few days. As The Hill reports, Sunday (February 12) found the U.S. military removing the third unidentified item from the sky in just three days.

At this time, details surrounding the incidents are sparse. Still, several lawmakers are using their platforms to hold the government accountable in offering up an explanation. “There’s been space junk, weather balloons, spy balloons, and military advancements for years,” Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene wrote on Twitter yesterday afternoon. “All of [the] sudden world superpowers are shooting unidentified objects down. This looks like a testing of military prowess.”

Later on, the far right-conspiracy theorist added, “Lack of evidence and briefings are extremely noticeable.” Her message came shortly after the fourth object in recent weeks was shot down over Lake Huron. Officials confirmed that the mission was successful during a briefing. They noted that the item was first spotted on Saturday. It came down because it was posing a threat to civilian aviation.

The first incident, involving a Chinese spy balloon, saw President Joe Biden order the floating device’s removal from the Carolina coast last Saturday. Following that, a “high-altitude object” was hovering over Alaska on Friday (February 10). The military promptly shot it down. The next day, Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau gave NORAD direction to shoot down a similar object found over the Yukon territory.

At this time, the general public is searching for more answers. Specifically, they want to know the origin of the aerial objects and their intention. Finally, others are asking why their appearances have become so frequent lately. Rep. Matt Rosendale is among lawmakers pushing for an explanation.

“Members of Congress must have more timely and accurate information so we can keep our constituents informed. DOD — where are you?” he wrote to the Department of Defense. Elsewhere, two Michigan Reps – Debbie Dingell and Lisa McClain – have been equally voicing their concerns online as well. “The increasing incidents of unidentified objects, the latest over Lake Huron in Michigan airspace, are disturbing,” the former says.

She went on to demand, “We need the facts about where they are originating from. What their purpose is, and why their frequency is increasing.” As for the latter, she told followers, “I have been keeping a close eye on the military’s actions over the Great Lakes today. Our state, and the entire country, deserve answers to what happened, and I will ensure we get them.”

Additionally, Biden’s Administration is facing criticism for their silence on the objects. Late yesterday evening, the DOD reportedly held a press call. Still, the Pentagon hasn’t given any assessment of the unusual item’s origin. It’s worth noting that General Glen VanHerck, NORAD commander, has made it clear that he’s not ruling out the possibility of extraterrestrial activity.

As of Sunday, he is unaware of any other objects causing concern within the U.S. airspace. What are your thoughts on the situation? Let us know in the comments, and check back later for more news updates.
