former President Barack Obama very casually let slip. Aliens exist. 
>> They're real, but I haven't seen them and and and they're not being kept in uh what is it? 
>> Area 51. 
>> Area 51. Unless there's this enormous conspiracy and they they hid it from the president of the United States. 
>> Now, he's clarified his position. 
Statistically, the universe is so vast that the odds are good that there's life out there. 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. 
If you're not a UFO freak like me, you wouldn't know that this is the second time that Obama has actually kind of let slip, that he knows a little of let slip, that he knows a little something. 
>> There's footage and records of objects in the skies that we don't know exactly what they are. 
We can't explain uh how they moved. 
>> There you go. Look, put it together. If you can surmise that China, Russia, the United States are not behind something that's flying around in the sky at instantaneous speed, what else are you supposed to deduce? What else could it possibly be? Is it always going to be 
Oh, it's a weather balloon. For example, 
my friend Jeremy Corbel, he just released a new video. This is a new UFO footage released by Jeremy from Syria which was shot by a Reaper drone back in 2021. 
So, I'm asking people to keep an open mind. 
Like, we do have video. We don't have any idea what it all is.
