‘You can call it an alien if you want, but I think there’s a lot of historical precedent to call that a demon,’ the vice president told Rogan.

(LifeSiteNews) — U.S. Vice President JD Vance sat down Wednesday for a lengthy interview with podcaster Joe Rogan (video, transcript) covering a wide range of topics, from divine theories behind alien encounters, to the Iran War, to the Trump administration’s handling of the Jeffrey Epstein investigation.

During a conversation about how he had “effectively unlimited access to information” but not the time to devote to exploring every single topic he would like, Vance raised “the UFO thing,” promising that “eventually I’ll have like a few weeks where I can just sit down and worry about that problem.”

Rogan asked him about past comments about thinking aliens were actually demons. Vance explained, “So if you look historically at things that are similar to the alien phenomenon where, oh, some like strange being, it kind of looks like a human being but doesn’t look like — but it’s not human. And it shows a particular interest in human beings and then it takes the human beings and, you know, like does weird experiments on them … if we’re talking about an extraterrestrial being that is human-like but not human, that contains effectively infinite powers and is torturing human beings, you can call it an alien if you want, but I think there’s a lot of historical precedent to call that a demon.”
