MAGA Congresswoman Claims UFOs Might Be ‘Interdimensional Beings'

MAGA Congresswoman Claims UFOs Might Be ‘Interdimensional Beings'

Gizmodo4 days ago
What are those unexplained objects zipping around in the sky? They could be aliens; they could be secret government aircraft; they might even be Superman. Or, if you believe the latest MAGA politician to appear on Joe Rogan's podcast, they're beings from another dimension.
Rep. Anna Paulina Luna, a Republican from Florida, has held hearings on Capitol Hill to investigate UAPs, unidentified aerial phenomena, and the congresswoman told Rogan on Wednesday's episode that she's seen evidence they could be 'interdimensional beings.'
'Based on our interviews, and this has been something that you can go back and watch with the congressional hearings, but I was actually able to ask some of the witnesses, 'What are these things?'' Luna told Rogan. 'And they keep saying interdimensional and then when you talk about the interdimensional aspect of 'are these things pre-existing maybe outside of what we currently know as our own dimension?'…'
Rogan was obviously curious and asked Luna to elaborate. The congresswoman, who earlier this year introduced legislation to put Trump's face on Mount Rushmore, then tried to explain and seemed to suggest that these 'interdimensional beings' were found in the Bible. Or at least they would've been, if the Bible hadn't been censored.
Rep. Luna: Well, they call them interdimensional beings. I think that they can actually operate through the time-spaces that we currently have. And that's not something that I came up with on my own. That's based on stuff that we've seen, that's based on information that we've been told. And then also too, I think that there's this historical aspect of, you know, this gets into the deeper theories and concepts of religion and I think the history that we currently know. And that kind of spins off into another topic of, you know, you have the modern day Bible, you have this aspect of books of the Bible that have been removed that explain and kind of touch on these topics. And I think that we're in a time and age where you have such a vast amount of information that we have access to via social media, via your cell phone, via the internet. And so it's really changing the way that we understand, you know, the origins of life and the spiritual reality that we know.
Luna had a knack for rambling without saying much or providing evidence. So Rogan pressed her on what evidence there might be to prove that UAPs are actually beings from another dimension. She kept giving vague answers, but insisted that she's seen evidence. Sadly, she just can't tell you what it is.
Rep. Luna: Yeah, so look, have I seen a portal open? No. Have I seen a spaceship? Personally no. Have I seen evidence of this? Yes. Have I seen photo documentation of aircraft that I believe were not made by mankind? Yes. Is there historical significance to this? Yes. multiple events that go back to, I would argue, maybe even before the time of Christ that have documented this in text? Yes.
Luna acknowledged throughout the interview that the U.S. government may have advanced technology that could explain some of the UAP sightings, but she kept coming back to this idea that there was something supernatural about it all. And she floated conspiracy theories about how these kinds of beings had been censored in the editing of the Bible, specifically invoking the idea that the Book of Enoch had not been included as part of the Bible for shadowy reasons.
Luna, who said she's read the Book of Enoch 'multiple times,' insisted that she wasn't saying these mysterious beings were angels, but noted there were 'other creations that God made,' according to her understanding of Christianity.
Luna said she's seen classified photos in a SCIF that she can't talk about, something that clearly frustrated Rogan. 'I'm very confident that there's things out there that have not been created by mankind,' Luna said.
The congresswoman made other wild claims during the interview about the CIA discovering the Ark of the Covenant in the 1980s and strongly suggesting that remote viewing is a reality. She also mentioned that some autistic people had telepathic abilities, a reference to a popular podcast called the Telepathy Tapes. And everything she mentioned was cloaked in this conspiratorial thinking as she insisted that powerful people were hiding the truth from the American people.
'It seems crazy that people have access to information that shows that there's something outside of us that is more intelligent, at least more capable than we are. And they hide it from everybody else,' Rogan said.
Crazy indeed, Mr. Rogan. Crazy indeed. Did you guys hear about those Epstein files?

Zelensky set to show up in ‘suit-style' for Oval Office meeting after Trump whined about his attire last time

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky will wear a 'suit-style' jacket during his meeting with President Donald Trump in the Oval Office — months after Trump made jokes about his attire during a White House meeting that descended into a shouting match. The White House reportedly asked Ukrainian officials if Zelensky would wear a suit ahead of Monday's meeting in D.C. with top European leaders and the US president, two sources told Axios. The high-stakes meeting comes months after Trump welcomed Zelensky into the West Wing and made jabs about his customary military-style attire, jokingly telling the press, 'he's all dressed up today.' Zelensky is set to wear the same black jacket he wore to a June NATO summit in the Netherlands, which sources described as being 'suit-style' but not a full suit. That summit marked the first time Zelensky had donned a business-style jacket since Russia launched its war on Ukraine in 2022 — and the fashion choice impressed Trump, according to the report. One Trump advisor jokingly told Axios that 'it would be a good sign for peace' if Zelensky dressed up on Monday, but added, 'We don't expect him to do it.' Another source added: 'It would be great if he wore a tie, but we don't expect him to.' During Zelensky's last White House visit, it was reportedly Vice President JD Vance who was more annoyed than Trump by the Ukrainian leader's understated fashion choices, particularly that he was without a tie, according to the report. Zelensky will not wear a tie on Monday, the sources added. Trump's irritation during Zelensky's last visit, which descended into a shouting match, was about more than just his fashion choices, and the US president's advisors say this time should go more smoothly. "They've traveled very, very far, both of them. Zelensky will not show him pictures of dead children and then act like it's somehow his fault. The president has learned to just sort of like, you know, file away any irritations and go forward,' a Trump advisor told Axios. Zelensky will also be joined by neighboring European leaders in a show of unity. The meeting is set to be held Monday at 3 p.m. EST, and comes after Trump met with Russian leader Vladimir Putin in Alaska on Friday. Trump is now pushing Zelensky to strike a peace deal without Crimea and NATO membership instead of an immediate ceasefire – backing Moscow's position. During the meeting, Putin agreed to let the US and its European allies offer Ukrainian security guarantees, US envoy Steve Witkoff said. "President Zelenskyy of Ukraine can end the war with Russia almost immediately, if he wants to, or he can continue to fight," Trump said on Truth Social. "No getting back Obama given Crimea... and NO GOING INTO NATO BY UKRAINE. Some things never change!!!" At least 10 people were killed in Ukraine after Russia launched 144 drones and missiles overnight, Kyiv said, in an attack described by Mr Zelensky as 'demonstrative and cynical.'

Starmer says allies must ‘get this right' ahead of crunch Ukraine talks

Sir Keir Starmer has said allies must 'make sure' there is 'fair' and 'just' peace in Ukraine as he travelled to Washington to support Volodymyr Zelensky in crunch talks with Donald Trump. The Prime Minister and other European leaders will seek to persuade the US president not to push for a settlement which rewards Vladimir Putin's aggression, but also secures US security guarantees for any military peacekeeping force from the so-called 'coalition of the willing'. The meeting will come after Donald Trump suggested the Ukrainian president would have to accept there was 'no getting back' Crimea, which was annexed by Russia in 2014, and that Ukraine would not be allowed to join the Nato alliance. In a video posted on X, Sir Keir said of the conflict: 'Everybody wants it to end, not least the Ukrainians. 'But we've got to get this right. We've got to make sure there is peace, that it is is lasting peace and that it is fair and that it is just. 'That's why I'm travelling to Washington with other European leaders to discuss this face to face with President Trump and President Zelensky, because it's in everyone's interests, it's in the UK's interests that we get this right.' The Prime Minister will be joined by French President Emmanuel Macron, German Chancellor Friedrich Merz, Italy's leader Giorgia Meloni and Alexander Stubb, the president of Finland. Nato chief Mark Rutte and European Commission president Ursula von der Leyen are also attending. In a message on his Truth Social platform, Mr Trump said President Zelensky 'can end the war with Russia almost immediately, if he wants to, or he can continue to fight'. He said there would be 'no going into Nato by Ukraine' – keeping its neighbour out of the alliance and its mutual defence pact has been one of Russia's key aims. But Sir Keir, along with other Nato leaders, has said Ukraine is on an 'irreversible path' to membership of the security alliance. 'Russia cannot have a veto against Ukraine's pathway to the EU or Nato,' the Prime Minister's official spokesman said on Monday. Asked if Mr Trump could have a veto, the spokesman repeated that 'our position on Ukraine and Nato hasn't changed' and that Ukraine is on 'irreversible path' to membership. He said No 10 is working 'hand in glove' with Mr Trump on Ukraine, when asked if Sir Keir was confident the US leader would not try to veto membership. The security guarantees the US has signalled it is willing to provide will be an 'important aspect of the discussions' at the White House today, he said. Mr Trump's envoy Steve Witkoff has suggested that measures similar to Nato's Article 5 mutual defence provision could be offered by the US without Kyiv joining the alliance. Mr Witkoff, who took part in the talks between Mr Trump and Russian president Mr Putin last week, said it 'was the first time we had ever heard the Russians agree to that' and called it 'game-changing'. 'We were able to win the following concession: That the United States could offer Article 5-like protection, which is one of the real reasons why Ukraine wants to be in Nato,' Mr Witkoff told CNN. Mr Zelensky said any peace deal must be lasting 'not like it was years ago, when Ukraine was forced to give up Crimea and part of our East – part of Donbas – and Putin simply used it as a springboard for a new attack'. He said: 'Russia must end this war, which it itself started. And I hope that our joint strength with America, with our European friends, will force Russia into a real peace.' Mr Trump has appeared to drop his calls for a ceasefire after a summit in Alaska with his Russian counterpart Vladimir Putin. Mr Putin has long refused to agree to a ceasefire as a precondition for talks to end the war, prompting fears that Russia could continue gaining ground in Ukraine as negotiations take place. No 10 appeared to suggest that Sir Keir could back a peace deal without a ceasefire. 'We want to see an end to the killing. If you can bring about an end to the killing and bring about a sustained peace in one go, then all the better,' his spokesman said. But Ukraine must determine whether it wants to cede land to secure a deal, he said, stressing that 'international borders must not be changed by force'. At the White House, Mr Zelensky is expecting to face calls from the US president to concede to full Russian control of Donetsk and Luhansk, two mineral-rich regions of Ukraine that are mostly occupied by Vladimir Putin's forces. In exchange for these demands, the Russian president would reportedly withdraw his forces from other areas of Ukraine and accept the Nato-like guarantee designed to prevent him launching further incursions. Ahead of their Oval Office encounter, the allies are likely to be mindful of the previous occasion Mr Zelensky visited Mr Trump in the White House. February's public spat, which saw US vice-president JD Vance accuse Mr Zelensky of not being thankful enough to the US, resulted in American aid to Ukraine being temporarily halted. Mr Trump will again host Mr Zelensky in the Oval Office before a separate meeting with the European leaders. Russia continued to carry out 'demonstrative and cynical' strikes ahead of the meeting, the Ukrainian leader said. Mr Zelensky posted on X: 'Putin will commit demonstrative killings to maintain pressure on Ukraine and Europe, as well as to humiliate diplomatic efforts. 'That is precisely why we are seeking assistance to put an end to the killings. That is why reliable security guarantees are required. That is why Russia should not be rewarded for its participation in this war.'

Highland protestors gather to protest Trump's gerrymandering efforts

By Rose Bombagetti's estimation, the cars honking as they whiz by the protests for which she's come out have been feeling more supportive as the weeks drag on. There are still those who aren't, of course — one man in his 20s yelled, 'Trump! Wooooooo!' as he drove past Highland's Highway of Flags Monument during the 'Fight the Trump Takeover' National Day of Action Saturday afternoon; earlier, another yelled, 'Heil Hitler!' and gave the Nazi salute, Bombagetti said. But overall, people seem to finally comprehend that the protests aren't just to annoy people. Highland Democrats Chairwoman Kelly Bridges has been feeling the change too, and was thrilled to see the small-but-dedicated crowd of 50 who convened on the corner with them. It's why her group put out the call. 'More and more, people are waking up to the necessity to fight against Trump and his destruction to our country,' Bridges said. 'These people that came out today and stood in the heat in solidarity are just one example of what it means to stand up for your rights. This is about saving our country. It's about saving our friends. It's about saving our neighbors, and we won't stop fighting.' Bombagetti, who calls Cedar Lake 'home' but snowbirds to Florida in the winter, said she's been feeling the shift down there as well. When she moved into her community, the like-minded sort of met in secret as to not provoke MAGA jeers from their neighbors. 'It was a secret 'Liberal Club,' but now, we're starting to open it up to discuss with everyone what's happening,' she said. 'Prior to coming back, I went to five protests in Florida, and I was shocked in my solid-red district, there were thousands of people out there protesting with me. And it gets bigger every time.' There are so many things that appall her about President Donald Trump's second term that bring her out to protest, she said, but no one should be surprised at any of them since he said what he was going to do if he got reelected. 'He said he would be a dictator on Day 1,' she said, referring to Trump's comment during a Fox News town hall where when he was asked if he would abuse his power as retribution against anyone and responded, 'Except for Day 1,' before clarifying he wanted to 'close the border' and 'Drill, drill drill.' 'He's destroying the Constitution, and he's killed our health care. I can't understand why Republicans are accepting of (this administration) literally choosing who can live or die. Are they really paying attention? 'I wear my 'Resist' shirts everywhere I go, and I come to protests so I can know that the whole world hasn't closed its eyes to morality. I even bring chalk with me so I can protest slogans; they're graffiti, but not the permanent, damaging kind.' Nick Egnatz, the de facto protest leader at the Highway of the Flags — first for 14 ½ years prior to the pandemic, then now — was a born-and-raised Republican. The first ballot he ever cast, in fact, was an absentee ballot from Vietnam for Richard Nixon, he said. He plans to continue. 'We have a 250-year-old democracy. It's flawed, but that's why we come together and work them out. Trump has torched that,' Egnatz said. 'We're watching what he told us he would do – he attacks truth, and science is out-the-window – and it's unacceptable.'
