Is the government hiding or harboring aliens?

The concept of "harboring" in the context of immigration law, as outlined in the Immigration and Nationality Act (INA), does not apply to the idea of hiding or sheltering extraterrestrial beings. The term "harboring" specifically refers to the act of concealing, shielding, or providing shelter to undocumented immigrants who are in the United States illegally, with the intent to facilitate their remaining in the country unlawfully1.

The questions and allegations about the government hiding or covering up information related to UFOs or extraterrestrial life are unrelated to the legal concept of harboring and pertain to speculative and unverified claims about government secrecy regarding unidentified flying objects and potential alien life23. There is no credible evidence or legal framework that suggests the government is "harboring" aliens in the sense defined by immigration law.
