    Obama did not tell a podcaster aliens were real.

    He said the probability of alien life is certain in an infinite universe. That doesn’t mean they are flying around and raping cows, that just poor man’s Epstein Island.

      He straight up told a podcaster aliens were real. The fact that he later clarified what he meant doesn’t change the words he said.

      Not to say he lying or anything, but politicians backtracking and changing the narrative to do damage control after a story goes viral is super common.
