The release of UFO files is part of President Trump's effort to increase transparency on government knowledge of possible extraterrestrial activity.

The Department of Defense has released hundreds of never-before-seen files on UFOs.

Trap Lore Ross states that people close to the Trump camp claimed that in his first administration, President Trump intended to make a disclosure about UAPs but was scared of forces inside the US government that would kill to protect the secret.

William Neil McCasland disappeared just one week after President Trump ordered the immediate release of the government's so-called alien files.

More UFO documents and information are expected to be released weekly in future installments.

The US government has, at certain times, hidden materials related to UFOs.
