Aliens.gov: A Government Distraction Tactic and the Emergence of a Cultural Symbol

To the point

Aliens.gov is registered in the government’s web system but has no active page, and the idea is that talking about aliens is a distraction from real issues, sparked by Obama’s joke about government knowledge of aliens and Trump’s hints at declassifying UFO files, with nods to Tom DeLonge and Steven Spielberg and past declassified topics like JFK and Epstein, so it might become a cultural symbol rather than a real portal.
