According to the federal government, there are millions of aliens here illegally from Latin America and elsewhere.

I'd love to believe that extraterrestrials are here or have ever been here, but the evidence says otherwise. For one thing, I can't understand why any intelligent being from another planet would come all the way to this one and not make a concerted effort to make contact with people that actually have any measurable intelligence. Instead, they seem to show up in the middle of nowhere and make contact with the most ignorant people on the planet.
And how stupid are the aliens that possess the technology to create a vessel that would make it all the way across the vastness of the galaxy and crash-land when they get here?

So far we've seen no verifiable evidence of other sentient species. That said, I believe with some certainty that somewhere in our galaxy at some past, present, or future time, a sentient species did/does/will exist.
Why haven't we heard from them?
Perhaps they are not technologically advanced enough to be heard. They may be mastering stone knives right now, or experiencing their own Rennaisance.
Perhaps they are here right now. Any species sufficiently advanced to travel interstellar distances would be able to hide or masquerade with ease. That Boeing 737 that just flew by may be a surveillance craft.
Perhaps they are so far away they will never notice us and vice versa.
Perhaps they existed a million years ago and died out.
Perhaps they will exist a million years from now.
It is really impossible to know for sure.
The Drake Equation suggests that there is sentient life out there. The Fermi Paradox casts doubt. Play around with the calculation form at the second link and see what you think.

we dont even know how many species exists within the human evolution some people seem very alien to me and you wonder if this could be the socialisation process only
maybe the question should be - are all humans on earth humanised to a measurable degree and then we can start to measure the possibility of aliens among us

I think that the chances are pretty high that there are other species in this universe, cuz we can't be an exception!
There have to be others...
It's just logical to think that!
But i doubt that they are living on this planet.

I say no. I go with the evidence.
