One of Donald Trump’s campaign promises was to investigate and release government information about UFOs. Earlier this year, the president announced that he had ordered his administration to begin the work, and now rumors say the first release could come on Friday.

“Based on the enormous interest shown, I will instruct the Secretary of Defense and other relevant departments and agencies to begin the process of identifying and releasing government records related to extraterrestrial life, unidentified aerial phenomena (UAP), and unidentified flying objects (UFO), as well as any other information linked to these highly complex, yet extremely interesting and important, issues,” Trump wrote in February.

“It starts tomorrow. There will be some material from pilots, and maybe a video,” said Republican Congressman Tim Burchett to independent journalist Jeremy Corbell.

Burchett has been one of the members of Congress pushing the issue the hardest and believes the public can handle the truth. However, he has also said that if the public saw what he has seen, many would have trouble sleeping.

Burchett noted that some in Congress still oppose the disclosure, but he is convinced that Trump’s promise to release the files will be kept.

“I want to remind people that transparency won’t happen all at once, it will take some time.”

According to reports, the first release will not, however, include the 46 UFO videos that Congress has demanded the Department of Defense to make public.

Pastors Prepare

At the same time, reports indicate that U.S. authorities have gathered pastors to inform them about what’s to come, urging them to be prepared for reactions where Christians might either lose their faith entirely or have questions.

The concern that the world’s religions will be strongly affected is one of the worries associated with releasing this kind of information.

One of the pastors present at the meeting was Joseph Z, who told journalist Ben Swann what was said and shown:

Skepticism

Within the U.S. government, there is still resistance to releasing the information, and in some circles, there is a belief that it is not a matter of aliens, but “demons.”

While many see the previous congressional hearings, where whistleblowers have testified that the U.S. government possesses both alien craft and bodies, and now the file releases, as great victories, not everyone is convinced that the whole truth will come out—only a part of it.

One of the skeptics is Bob Lazar, who in the late ’80s worked at S4, an area within Area 51, trying to understand the technology in a craft:

The same day Trump spoke about releasing the UFO files, the area around Area 51 was hit by 17 earthquakes in one day. The quakes ranged from 2.5 to 4.4 in magnitude and occurred near the base, about 130 kilometers from Las Vegas, according to the US Geological Survey (USGS).

The first and strongest quake occurred four kilometers underground shortly after 3 p.m. local time last Wednesday, followed by more than a dozen smaller tremors.

Geophysicist Stefan Burns claimed the activity took place “in an unusual location for an earthquake.”

Higher Intelligence

According to Timothy Gallaudet, an oceanographer and retired rear admiral in the U.S. Navy, the Earth is being watched by a “higher extraterrestrial intelligence”:

Amy Eskridge is one of the many researchers in the field of antigravity/UFOs who have died or disappeared without a trace in recent times. Before she died, she claimed that it was not aliens, but humans from the future:
