Maybe you haven't watched the History Channel recently, but there is indeed a lot of stuff about aliens on there. Possibly more stuff about aliens than about actual history.

The history channel stopped showing history content years ago, it’s been crank ufo/ancient aliens bullshit and crappy reality tv for at least a decade

This is such an ancient meme that it has entries in normal dictionaries.

Check out the History Channel's schedule today. Not a cherry-picked day, just a normal schedule for them: https://www.history.com/schedule
That's four hours of aliens nonsense, four hours of drug themed history documentaries (probably the same target demographic as the aliens stuff.) An hour of christian prophesy and preaching, 12 hours of reality TV, and some infomercials to make up the difference.
Is it any wonder that an ostensibly serious man such as a military commander thinks that the History Channel is trash? I'd be concerned if he didn't.
Former commander says he didn't believe in UFOs and defends himself with "I never watched history channel or anything like that" -- as though that's a source for UFOs rather than...history.
