Dr. Phil Accuses the Pentagon of Ignoring Thousands of UFO Reports

Dr. Phil has a new bone to pick with the U.S. government. Read on for the details of the talk show host's outrage over what he calls the UFO "lie."

Dr. Phil Accuses Government of Concealing Information About UFOs

Dr. Phil McGraw is accusing the U.S. government of deceiving the American people for the last eight decades by hiding evidence of potential contact with alien life forms. McGraw also said that he is "absolutely certain" that the government has been concealing information about unexplained encounters with unidentified flying objects (UFOs), also known as Unidentified Anomalous Phenomena (UAPs). 

The notorious television personality did not claim that he has proof of UFO existence; however, he alleged that the Pentagon has ignored over 1,800 reports of UFOs from the American public. McGraw acknowledged that while some of the reports can be "explained away....the point is nobody in the government is even looking at these things."

This is not the first time that McGraw has called out government officials for concealing documents, photos, and videos connected to its UFO files. He previously said that the government's strategy of rolling out the materials was a lie designed to keep the truth about the existence of alien life forms from the public.

Earlier in the year, President Donald Trump ordered the Pentagon to oversee the declassification and release of all materials tied to UFOs and extraterrestrials. There have since been five batches of files released to the public, originating from the Pentagon, NASA, the CIA, and the FBI. However, the bulk of these documents have been vague enough to not be considered proof that life exists on another planet.
