This is how I know the gov't isn't hiding aliens, he woulda tweeted that shit out.
Wrong, he would have bragged about deporting them back to Mars.

I am terrified, Brett -- I am genuinely terrified -- that the next time Great Britain discovers an Al Qaeda plot to stuff plastique into printer toner cartridges and put them on 747s, they'll say, 'we should wait, let's not share this with the Americans just yet unless it's absolutely necessary, you know how their President tweets things.'
And that will get Americans killed.
You mean golfing while the storm bears down on most of the East coast?He just wasn’t sure if biggest is still best in this case. Give the man a break, he’s busy Making America Great Again and tired from fighting the lying liberals every single day!
There you go, I explained it away.
...sure, until someone kidnaps Princess Ivanka and brings a giant Hoover...
I doubt that it being a spy satellite is news to any government, also I doubt it's geosynchronous and there are a whole mess of em. Hell at this point Google Earth sats have enough resolution to be considered spy.It's not hard to see that the satellite is there, but now the world knows it's a photo-imaging bird. I give it a month before someone points a big laser at it and burns the sensor out. Of course, we won't hear about that.

Amateur satellite trackers say they believe an image tweeted by President Trump on Friday came from one of America's most advanced spy satellites.
The image almost certainly came from a satellite known as USA 224, according to Marco Langbroek, a satellite-tracker based in the Netherlands. The satellite was launched by the National Reconnaissance Office in 2011. Almost everything about it remains highly classified, but Langbroek says that based on its size and orbit, most observers believe USA 224 is one of America's multibillion-dollar KH-11 reconnaissance satellites.
"It's basically a very large telescope, not unlike the Hubble Space Telescope," Langbroek says. "But instead of looking up to the stars, it looks down to the earth's surface and makes very detailed images."
Prior to the analysis, some experts suspected the image in Trump's tweet might have come from a drone or a spy plane.
"When I saw the image, it was so crystal clear and high-resolution that I did not believe it could come from a satellite," says Melissa Hanham, a satellite imagery expert and deputy director of the Open Nuclear Network in Vienna, Austria. But she finds the new analysis persuasive. "Given that the satellite is in position at that moment, it's now very likely that it was [the source of the picture]," she says.
Hanham says she is amazed a satellite can provide such clear imagery. Spy satellites must peer down through earth's atmosphere, which is a bit like trying to look at objects in the bottom of a swimming pool. They also must snap their pictures while whizzing across the sky. Both effects can blur the fine details in images.
"I'm now scratching my head and curious about how they account for the effects of the atmosphere and motion of the objects," she says.
And she says she thinks she's not alone. Others will be trying to use the image to learn more about how USA 224 works. "I imagine adversaries are going to take a look at this image and reverse-engineer it to figure out how the sensor itself works and what kind of post-production techniques they're using," she says.
Hanham questions whether Trump's tweet zinging the Iranians was worth the information this image provides to other nations, but she adds: "It's his decision as the president."
He’d ask though, I would, chances are they would have to answer a direct question.Maybe the Secret services or the Men in Black or whoever keeps the secret convened when Trump was elected and were like:
- Listen guys, I know it's protocol to brief the new president, but this one seems a little empty in the head. Let's skip it for now.

Trump can't recall if he's heard of a Cat 5 storm. Four have threatened the US since his inauguration.
Secretary of Defense Mark Esper has authorized the use of $3.6 billion in military construction funds for 11 wall projects on the southern border with Mexico, according to defense officials and a letter from Esper to the Senate Armed Services Committee, which has been obtained by CNN.
