Did our Govt release UFO info to divert our attention from Trump/Putin relationship?

In case you missed it, the Department of Defense has recently admitted that they have been studying UFOs, and they even released a 2004 video of one.  But why tells us now?  I think Tucker Carlson may have let the cat out of the bag, at the 3:55 mark of this interview.  He said that he thought this was a bigger story than Vladimir Putin.  Is the government so desperate to divert our attention from Trump's relationship with Putin, that they are even willing to disclose some of their UFO info?

New Testament scholar, Larry Hurtado takes on Mythicist, Richard Carrier.

"We have examined each of Carrier’s three claims and found each of them readily falsified.  It’s 'three strikes you’re out' time.  Game over.

"There are much better reasons offered by people for finding Christian faith (or any kind of belief in God) too much of a stretch.  The attempts to deny Jesus’ historical existence are, for anyone acquainted with the relevant evidence, blatantly silly.  So, let those who want to argue for or against Christian faith do so on more serious grounds, and let those of us who do historical investigation of Jesus and Christian Origins practice our craft without having to deal with the strategems-masquerading-as-history represented by the mythical Jesus advocates."
