The surreal, almost Kafkaesque dynamics of modernity during the second Trump Administration have taken another dramatic turn in recent days with the prospect of UFO Disclosure gaining momentum:

The announcement by Lara Trump that the President “has prepared a speech on extraterrestrial life” is piggy-backed on the tails of former President Obama proclaiming “aliens are real” two days ago.

After decades of obfuscation and outright lies pertaining to the UFO Phenomenom by our government, the potential for ending the Truth Embargo appears to have suddenly become quite real….unless we arewitnessing the latest chapter of the highly sophisticated psychological operation surrounding the topic.

In the spirit of speculative musing that all this uncertainty invites, the dueling competition between our current and recent Commanders-In-Chief creates, however remote, a possible scenario in which we might see these two battling it our for re-election in 2028 with UFO Disclosure as their main issue for debate.
A case can be made that Obama will rely on the same legal grounds used by Trump to bypass the constraints of the 22nd amendment allowing both of them to run for a third term in 2028. It’s unclear why Steve Bannon is so confident his prediction will come true that Trump will reside in the Oval Office on 1/20/29 since the restrictive language seems unassailable.
But what’s good for the proverbial goose should cut both ways to allow the twice elected Obama to run again as well!! Moreover, Obama will be a far stronger candidate than Newsom, Harris or any of the other Democratic alternatives. He’s a proven commodity and far more attractive to independents than someone like the VERY blue (Young Global Leader) Newsom or the verbally challenged Harris and AOC!

Circling back to the UFO issue, I have long contended that the announcement by Israel’s Haim Eshed in late 2020 that Trump knew about our Alien Base on Mars but was blocked by the Galactic Federation from sharing it with the public was itself essentially tantamount to formal Disclosure……with few finding my contention viable.

I speculated in 2019 about Trump becoming the Disclosure President, a topic raised directly by Hillary Clinton during the 2016 campaign when she introduced the notion of UAPs to rebrand UFOs.

As I wrote then: “But if we receive official confirmation of the ET presence on Earth, that would make Trump the Disclosure President, something a man with his lust for fame and notoriety would surely relish in the run-up to the 2020 election…….and as a permanent legacy of his presidency!”
Yes, it’s very confusing but please stay with the signal instead of the noise. The decade since the publication of the New York Times UFO article on 12/16/17 has seen an acceleration of interest in the topic including Congressional hearings; talk of an ET Messiah in conjunction with 3i/ATLAS; a flock of UFO themed films; podcasts galore; clamor over those mysterious drones; and an explosion of academic interest, TV coverage and articles about ET sightings.

All of this adds up to the topic having reached the highest level of political relevance and the likelihood it will emerge as a key foreign policy/national security/economic development issue if the US survives long enough to hold a new election in 2028. https://www.infowars.com/posts/trump-bashes-obama-for-saying-aliens-are-real-suggests-declassifying-alien-ufo-documents
Will Obama and/or Trump be the candidates? I doubt it….except for the fact that everything has become chaotic and that literally anything can happen 33 months from now. https://www.infowars.com/posts/the-age-of-disclosure-is-here-president-trumps-plan-to-release-the-secret-ufo-files-in-july-is-sending-shockwaves-of-terror-through-the-deep-state
There are other choices besides the corrupt two party duopoly nominees including third party candidates who are invariably shut out of the process. I saw how bad things were decades ago after working on the Nixon impeachment in 1974 where I first discovered that the official JFK narrative was based on lies.
That’s when I began my quixotic quest for the presidency as a grass-roots write-in option for disgruntled voters: https://stateofthenation.co/?p=218442
I can think of others who would be potentially fine presidents. My list includes Thomas Massie; Steven Greer; Chuck Baldwin; Max Blumenthal; Rand Paul; John Warner IV; Richard Dolan; Colonel Douglas Macgregor; Bryce Zabel; Danny Sheehan; Tucker Carlson, MTG and Candace Owens……none of whom are perfect!
Greer holds particular attraction for me since he is a long time advocate of UFO Disclosure who identified the main problem with our illegal, oligarchic government that got transformed after WW2 into the MIC/National Security State: “(You) will learn that a silent coup d’état has occurred dating back to the 1950s and that the Congress, the president and other world leaders have been sidelined by criminal elements within the Military-Industrial-Financial Complex.”
I have also suggested one way for decent citizens to respond to the above dilemna is to withhold one’s consent by sitting out the election: https://stateofthenation.co/?p=242352
I prefer that we get something other than the “Battle For UFO Disclosure” in the context of third terms for 44 or 47 and that an authentic, honest person emerges to lead us out of the mess we are in by fully committing to a Truth Agenda that includes all the secrets surrounding the Phenomenon.
That would certainly be my pledge after a lifetime of service to transcending the imperial edifice now on full display with the Epstein files. We now have a clear picture of the decadent, corporate enslavers dedicated to thier personal pleasure and greed in pursuit of eternal life and genetically perfect replicas of their perverted selves.
I state my vision for the future of our country and Humanity here: https://stateofthenation.co/?p=178654
Hopefully whoever comes next will embrace a similar agenda dedicated to healing a deeply wounded Nation as well as every Earthling nesting on Sagan’s Pale Blue Dot! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GO5FwsblpT8
