Declassified UFO / UAP Document
TRUMP NOT BRIEFED ON ROSWELL AND UFO RECOVERY, INVESTIGATION REVEALS
AI-Generated Summary
An investigative article asserting that Donald J. Trump was never briefed on UFO retrieval programs due to security concerns and institutional barriers. It draws on historical precedents from the Clinton administration and statements from intelligence officials to support the claim.
This article, published by UFO Explorations in February/March 2026, argues that former President Donald J. Trump was never briefed on the truth regarding the 1947 Roswell, New Mexico crash or subsequent government UFO retrieval efforts. The author, Anthony Bragalia, posits that intelligence and military communities intentionally withheld such information from Trump due to concerns regarding his security practices and his disregard for classification protocols. The article supports this thesis through several lines of reasoning. First, it references testimony from figures like Secretary of State Marco Rubio, who suggested in the documentary 'The Age of Disclosure' that elite programs operate on a 'need-to-know' basis that excludes even the President. Second, it highlights the historical precedent of President Bill Clinton, who expressed frustration at his own inability to access information about Roswell, noting that he felt there was a 'government inside the government' that he could not control. Third, the article cites reports from intelligence officials who admitted to limiting briefings to Trump to prevent the potential leaking of sensitive information. Furthermore, the author notes that legal structures, specifically the Atomic Energy Act, place certain nuclear-related technologies under the jurisdiction of the Department of Energy rather than the executive branch, potentially creating a legal barrier to presidential access. Finally, the article discusses the perspective of the late Brigadier General Arthur Exon, who suggested that elected officials were excluded from the 'Unholy 13' group that managed Roswell-related information. The author concludes that Trump's public comments on Roswell, specifically his 2020 podcast appearance, were merely attempts to project knowledge he did not possess, and that his history of security breaches made it highly improbable that he would be entrusted with the most sensitive secrets regarding extraterrestrial recovery.
Sarah, there's a government inside the government and I don't control it.
