President Trump’s initial pick to become the U.S. Attorney General, Matt Gaetz, has claimed that he was briefed on a secret alien breeding program while in office.
Gaetz, a former representative, said he was told that alien-human hybrids are being created to enable government officials to communicate with beings from other worlds.
Speaking on The Benny Show with prominent right-wing influencer Benny Johnson yesterday, the ex-lawmaker revealed that he received the information at his office in Florida in a “non-classified setting.”
“I had someone come and brief me, who was in a military uniform, worked for the United States Army, that was briefing me on the locations of hybrid breeding programs where captured aliens were breeding with humans to create some hybrid race that could engage in intergalactic communication,” Gaetz said. “An actual uniformed member of the United States Army briefed me on that.”
According to Gaetz, who, incidentally, did not represent the Jupiter community during his time in Congress, members of his staff were present at the meeting with the “senior-enlisted” service member.
Gaetz went on to claim that the humans involved in the military program had been “abducted from war zones” and “the caravans of migrants.”
According to Gaetz, he was told that there were six to 12 facilities involved in the scheme. However, he conceded he did not verify the whistleblower’s claims.
The as-yet unnamed service member told Gaetz that he wanted members of Congress to appear at the facilities so that the alleged contents could not be moved.
Gaetz previously made headlines in November 2024 when Trump nominated him to become attorney general.
The former Florida lawmaker later withdrew himself from consideration for the position, amid a debate over unproven allegations that he had sex with a 17-year-old.
Gaetz has denied all wrongdoing and has not been charged with a crime.
The Trump administration has repeatedly discussed the possibility of extraterrestrial life, even registering the domain name “Aliens.gov.”
The president himself said in February that he was directing the Pentagon to identify and release files related to UFOs because of "tremendous interest.”
“I don’t know if they’re real or not,” Trump told reporters aboard Air Force One that same month.
Former President Obama described aliens as “real” during an appearance on the No Lie with Brian Tyler Cohen podcast. He caveated that by saying that he has not seen them and that they are not being contained in an “underground facility.”
Later, on Instagram, Obama clarified that he “saw no evidence during my presidency that extraterrestrials have made contact with us.”
Instead, he said that the vastness of the known universe increased the likelihood that aliens existed.
Trump accused Obama of revealing classified information about aliens by opining on the subject, but said that he “may get him out of trouble by declassifying.”
More recently, Gaetz criticized the ongoing conflict with Iran, putting some distance between him and the Trump administration.
Speaking at CPAC last month, he said that flooding ground troops into Iran would make the U.S. “poorer and less safe” and warned that he was “not sure we’d end up killing more terrorists than we create.”
The Independent has contacted the White House and the Department of Defense for comment.
