But it was Vice President JD Vance who recently made the news when he admitted to being "obsessed" with UFOs and expressed an interest in getting to the bottom of the mystery.

Speaking on the Ruthless podcast on Friday, he noted that, despite his curiosity, he had yet to truly investigate the phenomenon and planned to look into it during the August recess.

"Like I'm obsessed with the whole UFO thing," he said."What's actually going on? What were those videos all about? What's actually happening?"

"I haven't gotten to the bottom of it yet but we're only six months in, we've been very busy."

"The August recess is in part me gonna try to dive to the bottom of the whole UFO thing from last year."

Precisely which "UFO thing" he was referring to remains unclear.

Whatever the case, it will be interesting to see what - if anything - he finds out.
