'Crazy' UFO-believing Pentagon bosses missed spy craft for years

The Post was right. The “UFO” story is fake news.

After a gigantic Chinese spy balloon flew over America, the mainstream media and some Congressional leaders are still looking for “aliens.”

And it’s now reported that the Pentagon missed several incursions of foreign spy craft for years because they were instead looking for UFOs.

How did this happen?

It seems a small group of UFO activists spent years misleading a credulous media and an oblivious Congress.

On December 16, 2017, the New York Times released a bombshell story about a Pentagon “UFO program” called the Advanced Aerospace Threat Identification Program (AATIP).

The Times reported that Nevada Senator Harry Reid spearheaded the creation of AATIP, which was funded with $22 million to study strange unidentified objects flying over America’s skies.
