I wasn't until you mentioned it :-( 141.101.99.131 13:57, 29 May 2019 (UTC)

May be related to this news released yesterday:[1] Seebert (talk) 14:41, 29 May 2019 (UTC)

Yep, slow news day.OhFFS (talk) 15:19, 29 May 2019 (UTC)

The title text is probably a reference to US government restrictions placed on their departments (such as NOAA), preventing them from releasing details which might support the idea of climate change. JamesCurran (talk) 18:27, 29 May 2019 (UTC)

Of course the shadowy forces that control the world want to believe ... or at least want YOU to believe in UFO. The idea is simple: 1) make you believe in UFO 2) blame UFO for problems they caused. -- Hkmaly (talk) 02:46, 30 May 2019 (UTC)

How does the title text makes it "clear" in any way that this is a reference to Trump policy? 162.158.154.127 07:29, 30 May 2019 (UTC)
