It was a close encounter of the Schiff kind.
President Trump made an out of this world jibe when he was allegedly briefed on alien “hybrids” living among humans, a congressman claimed this week.
“Trump was, during a briefing, told that there are hybrids and that there’s hybrids that potentially live among us,” Rep. Eric Burlison (R-MO) claimed on podcast American Alchemy on Thursday, referring to creatures that are supposedly crossbred between extraterrestrials and humans.
“Trump’s response was ‘You mean like Adam Schiff?’” said Burlison, who heard of the joke from those with knowledge of the meeting.
“I don’t know if it’s fiction or not,” Burlison said, apparently referring to the joke and not the alleged creatures. “I could totally believe that he would say something like that.”
As a Golden State congressman, Schiff, now a senator there, led the first impeachment effort against Trump in 2020. He also served on the House committee investigating the Capitol riot on Jan. 6, 2021.
Trump has not been shy about his distaste for the Democrat alternatively nicknaming him “Shifty Schiff,” “Pencil Neck Adam Schiff,” “Little Adam Schitt,” and “Watermelon head.”
Besides alien hybrids, Trump has also been briefed on crashed spacecraft and non-human biological remains, claimed UFO whistleblower David Grusch in a 2025 interview on Fox News.
“Certainly members of this current administration are very, very well aware of this reality. Certainly the current president is very knowledgeable on the subject and I trust his leadership on this,” Grusch told Brett Baer last November.
Grusch, a former senior intelligence officer at the National Reconnaissance Office and the National Geospatial Intelligence Agency and an Air Force veteran, claimed on June 9 outside of Congress that there is a “continuum” of types of alien life that the US government is aware of including “corporeal bipedal” human-like creatures and “sentient plasmoid” beings.
Burlison even speculated that Trump has been briefed on the supposed existence of alien “Nordics,” which are said to be Scandinavian-looking, humanoid beings from another planet who some joke could resemble Norwegian World Cup team star Erling Haaland.
“Wasn’t [Trump] briefed on Nordics or something like Nordic aliens?” the “American Alchemy” host asked Burlison Thursday.
“Yeah something like that,” the lawmaker replied.
