Supposed aliens landed in Mexico’s Congress but there were no saucer-shaped UFOs hovering over the historic building or bright green invaders like those seen in Hollywood films.

The specter of little green men visited Mexico City as lawmakers heard testimony Tuesday from individuals suggesting the possibility that extraterrestrials might exist. The researchers hailed from Mexico, the United States, Japan and Brazil.

The session, unprecedented in the Mexican Congress, took place two months after a similar one before the U.S. Congress in which a former U.S. Air Force intelligence officer claimed his country has probably been aware of “non-human” activity since the 1930s.

    This is a distraction. Something nefarious is going on unrelated to this nonsense.

      It ties in with Qanon narratives too. Most of those conspiracy theorists believe “aliens” run the show, Trump/Biden is a clone and other wacky shit. It’s funny how grifters like this guy try to keep the narrative going for the delusional. It reinforces their beliefs, kind of like Sound of Freedom validates Qanon beliefs about human trafficking.

        If half of these people took the time they spend and reinvested into the actual issues of the world like financial abuse, police system reform, climate study, biology, chemistry, we’d all be in a substantially better place.

        Don’t forget that y’all.

          They think they’re Jewish aliens. If you ever research how stupid this is though you’ll go crazy.
