During a recent episode of The Joe Rogan Experience with guest Raul Bilecky, Joe Rogan joked about the idea of hypothetically running for president.
The conversation unfolded while the two discussed classified information tied to alleged hidden crash sites and mysterious buried objects that some claim the government has kept out of public view for decades.
Rogan referenced reports involving Representative Eric Burleson, who has requested access to certain locations, including one site said to contain an object so massive that an entire building was supposedly constructed around it.
That kind of secrecy, Rogan admitted, sparks a very specific reaction in him.
“S**t like that makes me want to run for president cuz that’s all I would care about,” Rogan said. “The economy would be in shambles. I’d be like, ‘Show me the UFOs.’”
Bilecky then questioned whether sitting presidents even receive access to information at that level, pointing to the “need to know” system that may keep certain secrets even from commanders-in-chief.
The discussion briefly drifted into conspiracy theories surrounding President John F. Kennedy’s assassination. Rogan pushed back on that idea, calling it an oversimplification.
“I don’t think that’s what they k illed Kennedy for… but the UFO people love to think that it’s UFOs is why they ki lled Kennedy. But they think everything’s UFOs,” he said.
Rogan went on to reflect on the difficulty of separating real whistleblowers from those spreading intentional disinformation. He suggested that some guests on his podcast who speak publicly about UFOs may actually be “designed to muddy up the water” and create confusion.
“Some of them I think are legitimate and some of them I think are disinformation specialists… they’re designed to muddy up the water… and create confusion,” Rogan said.
While he remains skeptical of extraordinary claims without hard proof, Rogan speculated that much of what gets attributed to alien technology could instead be secret human projects.
“I think a lot of it is probably some blackbudget weird science stuff that we have. But then it begs the question, where’d you get that?”
