Former Israeli space security chief says extraterrestrials exist, and Trump knows about it

A former Israeli space security chief has sent eyebrows shooting heavenward by saying that earthlings have been in contact with extraterrestrials from a "galactic federation."
"The Unidentified Flying Objects have asked not to publish that they are here, humanity is not ready yet," Haim Eshed, former head of Israel's Defense Ministry's space directorate, told Israel's Yediot Aharonot newspaper. The interview in Hebrew ran on Friday, and gained traction after parts were published in English by the Jerusalem Post on Tuesday.
A respected professor and retired general, Eshed said the aliens were equally curious about humanity and were seeking to understand "the fabric of the universe."
Eshed said cooperation agreements had been signed between species, including an "underground base in the depths of Mars" where there are American astronauts and alien representatives.
"There is an agreement between the U.S. government and the aliens. They signed a contract with us to do experiments here," he said.
Eshed added that President Donald Trump was aware of the extraterrestrials' existence and had been "on the verge of revealing" information but was asked not to in order to prevent "mass hysteria."
"They have been waiting until today for humanity to develop and reach a stage where we will understand, in general, what space and spaceships are," Eshed said, referring to the galactic federation.
The White House and Israeli officials did not immediately respond to NBC News’ request for comment. Sue Gough, a spokesperson for the Pentagon, declined to comment.
A spokesperson for NASA said one of the agency's key goals was the search for life in the universe but that it had yet to find signs of extraterrestrial life.
"Although we have yet to find signs of extraterrestrial life, NASA is exploring the solar system and beyond to help us answer fundamental questions, including whether we are alone in the universe," the spokesperson said in a statement.
Eshed's ideas are spelled out in more detail in "The Universe Beyond the Horizon — conversations with Professor Haim Eshed" by Hagar Yanai published in November.
Eshed, who oversaw the launch of numerous Israeli satellites into space, said he was only speaking out now because attitudes were changing and people seemed more receptive.
"If I had come up with what I'm saying today five years ago, I would have been hospitalized," he told Yediot. "Today, they're already talking differently. I have nothing to lose. I've received my degrees and awards, I am respected in universities abroad."
In May, Trump said, "Space is going to be the future, both in terms of defense and offense ... we're now the leader on space," as he was presented with the official flag of a newly created military branch, Space Force.
Its focus, along with a Space Command, is on space as a military domain for the U.S., preserving satellites and communications and a focus on geo-politics in new terrain.
Eshed's comments immediately spawned jokes and theories online. At least half-a-dozen accounts have been created on Twitter claiming to be representatives to earth from the "Galactic Federation." Other users have asked for preferential treatment and meetings with the other-worldly group.
Nick Pope, who used to investigate UFOs for the British Ministry of Defense, described Eshed’s remarks as “extraordinary.”
“Either this is some sort of practical joke or publicity stunt to help sell his book, perhaps with something having been lost in translation, or someone in the know is breaking ranks,” he said.
Pope said the UFO and conspiracy theory community was excited but that questions remained including whether or not Eshed was speaking from direct personal knowledge and experience or whether he is repeating something he has been told.
“There are still some missing pieces of the puzzle here,” he said.

Saudi TV Confirms Kingdom Has Joined BRICS Group – South African Minister Says Egypt, Ethiopia, Iran, and UAE Also Confirmed Members – Argentina Will Not Join
The multipolar world is a little stronger today with the arrival of new member countries to the BRICS group.
Following the formal invitations extended on the last BRICS Summit, last August in Johannesburg, new additions are joining Brazil, Russia, India, China and South Africa, the original members.
Saudi state TV broke the news today (1) that the Kingdom had officially joined BRICS.
Reuters reported:
“Saudi Arabia’s foreign minister had said in August the kingdom would study the details before the proposed Jan. 1 joining date and take ‘the appropriate decision’.
Prince Faisal bin Farhan had said the BRICS group was “a beneficial and important channel” to strengthen economic cooperation.
The BRICs bloc previously included Brazil, Russia, India, China, and South Africa, but is set to double with Saudi Arabia joining the United Arab Emirates, Egypt, Iran, and Ethiopia as new members.”
Saudi Arabia’s entry marks an expansion of China’s influence within the kingdom.
Continued strong ties with the US have not stopped the Saudis from pursuing their own geopolitical path.
“China, Saudi Arabia’s biggest oil customer, has led calls for the BRICs to expand to become a counterweight to the West.
The expansion could amplify the group’s declared ambition to become a champion of the Global South, although Argentina signaled in November it would not take up an invitation to join.”
But Saudi Arabia is not the only new member, according to South Africa’s Foreign Minister Naledi Pandor.
Egypt, Ethiopia, Iran, Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates have confirmed they are joining the BRICS bloc, Pandor told a news conference.
Argentina, also invited, has since declined the invitation to join.
Yahoo reported:
“‘With respect to the BRICS confirmations, five out of the six have confirmed. That is Saudi Arabia, UAE, Ethiopia, Iran and Egypt’, Pandor told a news conference on Wednesday. ‘Argentina has written to indicate that they will not act on this successful application by the previous administration to become full members of BRICS, and we accept their decision’.”

Will China use Supply Chains as a Weapon in a Conflict with the US?
US Officials Fear the Supply Chain is China’s Secret Weapon
Over the last few years, the phrase “supply chain” has become one of increasing importance to everyone – from corporate leaders to government officials and to customers. Now it’s a phrase that is becoming important to even military leaders.
According to Barron’s,
The United States worries that China will use its power in global supply chains as an additional weapon to advance its political and military might, a report released Wednesday showed.
The “Annual Threat Assessment” issued by the Director of National Intelligence said China is already using its supply chain dominance to force foreign companies and countries to transfer technologies and intellectual property to it.
The Pandemic Showed Just How Vulnerable our Supply Chains Are
The truth is that the United States has left itself incredibly vulnerable to supply chain manipulation by China.
More from Barron’s,
The disruptions of the Covid-19 pandemic showed the world the importance of supply chains — the way components of products make their ways from myriad sources around the world through various countries for preliminary and final assembly before products reach the market.
The pandemic demonstrated how the disruption of a single factory in China or elsewhere could halt the work of major industrial operations around the globe.
The “Annual Threat” report singled out China’s dominance in technology sectors including semiconductors, critical minerals, batteries, solar panels, and pharmaceuticals.
Chinese Domination of the Pharmaceutical Supply Chain
American consumers, like most global consumers, are reliant on a pharmaceutical supply chain that has been almost entirely taken over by the Chinese.
As Senator Marco Rubio (R-FL) pointed out in a report back in 2019, pre-COVID,
Chinese policymakers aim to make China’s domestic biotechnology industry the medicine cabinet of the world. To a large extent, they have already succeeded in achieving dominance in the lower end of the pharmaceutical and medical technology value chain. 80 percent of the active pharmaceutical ingredients (API) of drugs in the American market come from overseas, primarily from China and India. In older drugs with low profit margins, Chinese drugmakers have often taken over production entirely from Western companies. Chinese manufacturers are already the sole suppliers of many API and lower-end drugs.
Since COVID, this reliance on China for prescription drugs has only gotten worse – and as tensions escalate between the US and China, the possibility that the Chinese use this leverage to their advantage becomes more and more concerning:
Experts suggest that the growth of the US and China pharmaceutical trade poses a serious risk as the adversarial relationship could result in supply chain closures. It’s not unrealistic that pharmaceuticals could be used as a weapon in a trade war, as was suggested in past Chinese strategic talks. Additionally, the FDA has less oversight over Chinese facilities, which generates questions about the safety of foreign manufacturers.

MORE INSANITY: 150 House Democrats Including Dem Leader Hakeem Jeffries Vote Against Bill to Deport Illegals Caught Driving While Drunk
Image Credit: End Wokeness on X
The Democratic Party doubled down on their support for rewarding criminal illegal aliens at the expense of Americans Thursday, and now X owner Elon Musk is weighing in.
As the Gateway Pundit reported earlier, the House of Representatives on Wednesday passed legislation that would deport illegal migrants who rob American seniors by committing Social Security fraud. The bill passed by a vote of 272-155, with all Republicans present voting in favor and 155 Democrats in opposition.
The House of Representatives Thursday passed the Protect Our Communities from DUIs Act, also known as H.R. 6976. This legislation would bar illegal aliens with DUIs from entering the United States and subject them to deportation if they cross the border.
The bill passed by a 274-150 vote. Rep. Barry Moore (R-AL), who introduced the bill, thanked his colleagues for passing his legislation.
While all Republicans present voted in favor, a whopping 150 Democrats thought the measure was too harsh on illegals and voted no.
Opponents of this legislation were not limited to most insane Democrats, either. Democrat House Leader Hakeem Jeffries, for example, voted to support drunken illegals.
Upon learning this information, a flabbergasted Musk took to social media to ask a straightforward question: “What the heck is going on?”
The Democrats are either bowing to their radical-left fringe in fear of blowback or exercising their true feelings toward law-abiding Americans. Regardless, these votes are a complete travesty.

DESPICABLE: 155 Democrats Vote Against Deporting Illegal Aliens Who Rob America’s Seniors by Committing Social Security Fraud
Image Credit: NanLee1124 on X
Most of the Democrats in the House would prefer to let illegals drain the wallets of our seniors than send them back where they came from.
As Congress.gov reports, H.R. 6678 makes certain acts related to Social Security or identification document fraud grounds barring an illegal alien from admission into the United States or deporting the individual. Specifically, this applies to an individual who has been convicted of the offense or has admitted to committing the crime.
Offenses that constitute grounds of inadmissibility and deportation under the proposed legislation include:
(1) knowingly and without lawful authority producing a false identification document.
(2) making a false statement of material fact in an application for Social Security disability benefits.
The House of Representatives passed this H.R. 6678 by a vote of 272-155, with all Republicans present voting in favor and 155 Democrats in opposition. Yes, 155 Democrats decided to swear their loyalty to foreign nationals over the American people.
Per House.gov, here is the full list of quislings who stabbed Social Security beneficiaries in the back on Wednesday:
Image Credit: ChadGilmartinCA on X
As Stephen Miller notes, this represents 75% of the Democrat caucus. Following the vote, he called for Americans to vote them all out.
Many Americans responded by accusing the Democrats of committing treason.
In a sane country, this bill would have passed unanimously in the House without any debate. But thanks to the radical left, much of America has lost any semblance of commonsense long ago.

SHOCKER: Pennsylvania “Militia” Man Who Beheaded and Posted Video of His Federal Employee Father’s Head Online was Reported to the FBI OVER SIX MONTHS AGO!

It has been discovered that a Pennsylvania man, who is now charged with beheading his father and posting a video of the gruesome act online, was reported to the FBI over six months ago.
Justin Mohn, 32, committed the murder at their family home before uploading a video to YouTube, where he held up the decapitated head of his father, a longtime federal employee.
This information raises serious questions regarding the FBI’s focus and priorities, as some critics argue the agency disproportionately focuses its surveillance and investigative efforts in prosecuting conservative groups.
Justin Mohn, 32, is charged with the heinous murder of his 68-year-old father, Michael Mohn, a long-time federal employee. The murder took place at their family home in Middleton Township. Shortly after the incident, Justin Mohn posted a deeply disturbing video on YouTube, where he was seen holding his father’s severed head and ranting against the Biden administration.

In the video, Mohn declared, “This is the head of Mike Mohn, a federal employee of over 20 years and my father. He is now in hell for eternity as a traitor to his country,” demonstrating the extreme nature of his anti-government views.
“It is said those who commit treason and betray others occupy the lowest pits of hell for all time. The federal government of America has declared war on America’s citizens and the American states. America is rotting from the inside out as far-left woke mobs rampage our once-prosperous cities, turning them into lawless zones,” he added.
The video, which was titled “Call to Arms for American Patriots,” was accessible for six hours on YouTube before being taken down. It featured Mohn, self-proclaimed “Commander” of a so-called nationwide militia group, placing a bounty on the heads of several top government officials and calling for a rebellion against the Biden regime.
“I am issuing a $1 million bounty on the following individuals, alive or half a million dollars dead: FBI Director Chris Ray, Attorney General Merrick Garland, ex-Attorney General Bill Barr, and Supreme Court Chief Justice John Roberts,” he said.
“If I am captured or killed, do not give up. This is America and our freedoms we are fighting for. This is our children’s futures we are fighting for. Joe Biden is no longer in power. I am now officially the acting president of America under martial law. If Joe Biden does not abdicate, then capture him and bring him to me.”
“Our federal employee and are listening to this message. Now is your last chance to resign from the side of the traders and join your countrymen in taking back your country, or else this is your fate,” he said in the video.
“I urge the US Postal Service to suspend their services at this time, split from the federal government, and join your country, or else I cannot offer federal postal workers any protection. If the media begins to spread lies about this revolution and its patriots, then I authorize the targeting of news stations and their owners and employees as well. The hunting, capturing, and killing of America’s federal employees will not stop until Americans demands are met.”
Mohn has issued a series of demands (verbatim):
Resignation of all current non-military federal employees.
Abdication of Joe Biden and his cabinet from the White House.
Cancellation of the outstanding public debt as unconstitutional.
Ending of the Federal Reserve and restoration of Congress’s right to print interest-free money.
Closing of America’s borders to illegal immigrants and mass deportation of illegal immigrants who entered under the Biden regime.
Ceasing of any human trafficking, specifically involving children and sex slaves.
Ceasing of all woke and gender ideology propaganda in schools and other public places.
Capturing and torturing of federal employees and their associates will continue until the entire network of America’s traitors is identified and completely wiped out.
This includes bribed members of the deep state, labor racketeers of the prison industrial complex, and globalist leaders of assorted industries, namely tax-evading big tech companies.

Mohn was arrested Tuesday evening after police discovered the decapitated body of his father in the family home. The shocking event has also cast a light on the family dynamics, with Mohn living at the residence with his mother, Denice, brother, Zachary, and sister, Stephanie.
Phillyburbs detailed the police’s discovery and the subsequent arrest of Mohn, who was taken into custody in Fort Indian Gap, Pennsylvania. Police Chief Joe Bartorilla indicated that Mohn was well known in the community and that there had been signs of psychological issues.
The Unified Judicial System Portal lists the charges against Justin Mohn, including first-degree murder, abuse of a corpse, and possession of an instrument of a crime with intent.
However, the case took an even darker turn when it was disclosed that Mohn had been reported to the FBI in July 2023. An anonymous 4chan user had detailed troubling interactions with Mohn and mentioned reporting him to the authorities, with the post being archived on 4plebs.org.

VP Apprentice: Who Will Be The Donald Trump’s Running Mate?
President Trump is the Republican Party’s nominee for the 2024 general election all but in name.
He swept Iowa, taking 98 of the Hawkeye State’s 99 counties, and followed that route with a near-clean sweep of New Hampshire, enough to knockout both Ron DeSantis and Vivek Ramaswamy in one fell swoop (who both endorsed President Trump) while putting Nikki Haley’s campaign on life-support.
As the momentum surrounding President Trump grows, even as radical judges and district attorneys in states like New York and Georgia double down on their baseless political persecution of the 45th President, Republican officials are finally catching up with the grassroots in coming to terms with a fact they knew from day one: Donald Trump will not only be the GOP nominee but also the 47th President of the United States.
As a result, there has been a noticeable mad dash among certain Republicans to give soft auditions, whether through a primetime cable news spot or in a stump speech on the campaign trail, to make their not-so-subtle pitch for the vaunted Vice-Presidential post.
Vivek Ramaswamy and Tim Scott, for example, are two names often floated by conservative pundits as potential choices. Both were observed alongside Trump campaigning in New Hampshire. Other rumored prospects, such as Kari Lake, Marjorie Taylor Greene, and Matt Gaetz, have all been seen in recent weeks campaigning with the President in states like Iowa, New Hampshire, and even Nevada – attempting to maximize their facetime on the campaign trail and on television to ingratiate themselves with their party’s frontrunner.
Given that the proverbial “Vice Presidential race” appears to be heating up, I thought I would use the opportunity to offer some thoughts on several names people have been discussing as possible VP material.
None of these names are part of any official list – and this is not coming from someone who works for the Trump campaign. I should also reiterate that I have made no secrets about who I think would be President Trump’s ideal running-mate: Tucker Carlson, a subject I have tackled at pretty good length already here and here.
Tucker is again included on the list of names below, after he recently delivered remarks before a jam-packed Hockey arena in Edmonton, Canada in front of an audience of thousands of devoted fans.
A few names on this list are probably not even in contention but have only been listed because they have stirred up the rumor mill, and as a result have many people talking, rightly or wrongly, about their chances of being selected.
It should also be stressed that this list is far from being exhaustive: there is the likelihood that several notable omissions – such as Kristi Noem – might well be strong contenders and have greater odds than even some of the names listed here.
All that said, these names routinely come up in political chatter and so, are worth discussing – for good and ill – regardless of their status as legitimate contenders or longshots:
Vivek Ramaswamy
Image Credit: Vivek Ramaswamy” by Gage Skidmore
Vivek Ramaswamy has gone from an unknown Big Pharma bro to MAGA luminary after running, in his own words, as one of just two America First candidates in the 2024 presidential election. While his longshot campaign ended as expected – Ramaswamy dropped out after a disappointing fourth place showing in Iowa, and then quickly endorsed Donald Trump afterward – he has demonstrated a commitment to the cause and principles of America First, and so far, appears genuinely interested in righting the course of this country.
Some concerns remain about his background, his fortune, and even his citizenship – adding to the quirks that sometimes irritated the Trump base, such as overtalking at times and making absurd statements here and there, like his proclamation he made before dropping out that only he could win the general election.
All that said, however, of the America First-adjacent politicos and personalities not named Trump, I would probably rank Ramaswamy third, behind Kari Lake and Tucker Carlson, in my overall MAGA power rankings.
The fact that he was a self-made billionaire before reaching 40 is impressive; the fact that he relentlessly spurns the catechism of wokeism and offshoot policies like DEI and affirmative action and has witheringly indicted them for what they are: anti-white, reverse racism – is bold and admirable.
His youth and elite education background (Harvard undergrad; Yale Law School) accords him the benefits of being more in tune with the magnitude of these problems, and how they have eroded away the American Dream for younger generations (particularly young men of legacy American families), than most, if not virtually all, other major party candidates.
Perhaps most promising, unlike the doom and gloom mentality of so many on the Right, one that seems irrevocably in thrall to a fetishistic dogma that America’s decline is irreversible – Ramaswamy has, maybe naively, bucked the trend and offered a radical alternative: one that is positive, vibrant, youthful, and audaciously asserts that rather than being a geriatric patient, the republic is merely going through the growing pains of adolescence, still being a young country after all compared to rest of the Western world.
Ramaswamy’s recent campaign appearances on behalf of President Trump, and his endorsement of Kari Lake for the Arizona Senate, suggests that his heart is committed to this movement for the long run – even if he also happens to be growing his already considerable fortune in the process.
