^90% are weather balloons, another 9% are the planet Venus. Logic dictates that the remaining 1% are Venusian weather balloons.

When a psychologist needs psychiatric help: Dr. Phil is furious that the government has been hiding the truth about aliens and alien spaceships from him. NASA has been involved in the coverup, as did FBI, CIA, the White House, and you name it. "The real question isn't what they are, but what do we tell our children." Dr. Phil doesn't know how to tell his kids about Roswell.

It just makes me furious that our government has been lying to us for 79 years about this. They've been lying by omission. Uh I think they've been lying by misdirection. Uh it's absolutely ridiculous that our own government uh thinks we're too immature, too stupid, too foolish, whatever, uh to be told the truth about what's going on.

I mean, why do these people think they know better uh than we do about what's going on in our own lives, in our own world? Our government has been lying to us for 79 years.

You go back as far as 1947 where they have had clear information that there are uh objects not of this earth both technologically uh metallurgically performance-wise. Uh but yet that has been hidden from us. They've denied that. uh they've actually threatened people uh for talking from talking about this threatened them with uh careers, imprisonment, and some uh with death because they would consider it treason uh and really uh put the clamps down on people talking about this. So, they've lied by omission. I think they've also lied uh with uh overt misdirection. uh you know, we've seen lots of people talking about uh UFOs and things like that, but there were always people that were too drunk to fish. So, there was no credibility.

NASA has been involved, CIA, Department of Energy, the FBI, the Department of Defense, the White House, Department of National Intelligence, lots of agencies have been involved in this. So, they clearly have taken it very seriously, but yet hidden this from the public.

Oh look, ABC News credulously and uncritically reporting on "eerie" UFOs while showing blurry videos of balloons and birds.

So just about any crackpot who lies about having been a 'Pentagon UFO honcho' gets to be believied by the news outlets these days.

Ex-Pentagon UFO honcho claims photos show monolith-like structures on moon

Former Pentagon UFO investigator Luis Elizondo claims the US government possesses unreleased photographs showing what appear to be giant monolith-like structures on the moon — and the images may go public soon.

“There’s also photographs that I don’t believe have been made public yet that show on the lunar surface what appear to be large monolithic structures with right angle cuts,” Elizondo said on Disclosure Tonight with Thomas Fessler on Tuesday.

The alleged structures evoke the mysterious lunar monoliths featured in Stanley Kubrick’s 1968 sci-fi classic “2001: A Space Odyssey,” where the towering rectangular objects have the power to engineer humanity’s evolution.

Elizondo, who headed the Pentagon’s Advanced Aerospace Threat Identification Program, claimed that photographs of the monoliths were likely to be released soon — and called the images “intriguing.”

Was Lindsey Graham poisoned? Why Iran and Russia are at the centre of conspiracy theories

The sudden and unexpected death of veteran US Senator Lindsey Graham has sparked a flood of online conspiracy theories, with Iran and Russia becoming the focus of unverified speculation.

Although officials said the South Carolina Republican died following a “brief and sudden illness,” no evidence has emerged linking any foreign actor to his death. Yet Graham’s recent Ukraine visit, his push for fresh sanctions on Russia, his long-standing advocacy of a hardline policy against Iran and reports of recent threats from Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps have prompted social media users and commentators to question whether there is more to the story.

While the Russian angle dominates Eastern European discourse, a second, equally virulent wave of conspiracy theories points squarely at Iran. Graham was arguably the most vociferous anti-Iran hawk on Capitol Hill. He spent decades advocating for the total isolation of Tehran, consistently pushed for military action to dismantle its ballistic missile and nuclear programmes, and loudly cheered the Trump administration’s strikes on Iranian nuclear sites.

Iranian state television announced Graham’s death in openly celebratory language, describing him as a “warmongering and anti-Iranian U.S. senator” and congratulating Iran on his passing.

Conservative commentator Laura Loomer was among those who raised questions over the circumstances surrounding Graham’s death. In a post on X, she wrote that the senator had reportedly been threatened by Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) days earlier and questioned whether he could have been poisoned by a foreign adversary either during his overseas visit or after returning to the United States. She also called for an investigation into the death, asking what officials meant by describing it as a “brief and sudden illness” and whether the possibility of poisoning should be examined.

American author Rabbi Shmuley also reacted to Graham’s death on social media. “I’m not a conspiracy guy. But the death of Iran and Russia’s greatest foe, the GREAT LINDSEY GRAHAM, a day after he returned from Ukraine, stinks to high hell,” he wrote.

Graham’s death also fuelled speculation in alternative media circles, where some commentators pointed to what they described as Russia’s “well-documented history” of using specialised nerve agents and radioactive poisons against prominent adversaries. They claimed the senator’s aggressive push for tougher sanctions and a hardline policy towards Moscow may have made him a potential target for alleged state-sponsored retaliation.

Yikes.

Most of these conspiracy theories are great for their entertainment value but this one makes me shudder. Putin's history of poisoning his opponents in obvious ways that leave no doubt who was behind it is legendary. The thought of him doing this to a U.S. Senator... Scary thought.

Mitch McConnell’s Photo Doesn’t Stop Conspiracy Theories

Social media users have been asserting their suspicions over the photo Senator Mitch McConnell released on Facebook on Sunday, breaking a prolonged silence that had led to notable speculation about his health.

The Kentucky Republican, aged 84, shared the photo of what appears to be him sat in a hospital chair with a newspaper, next to his wife Elaine. He wrote that a fall, and a "mild case" of pneumonia, had resulted in his weeks-long hospital stay.

However, some X users have said they believe the image is generated with artificial intelligence (AI), sparking a widely circulating conspiracy about the photo.

At the forefront of social media users' speculation regarding the image, were the details of the newspaper and McConnell's wrist. Some users and reports have also said that the newspaper McConnell is holding in the photo appears to be the Sunday, July 12, 2026 edition of the Washington Post, open at the Sports section.

Users such as Mark Fitzpatrick, who ran for election for Governor of Idaho, but lost in the Republican primary on May 19, 2026, questioned the blurriness of the text of the newspaper in the image.

Though impossible to read, the shaping of the text appears to look similar to that of the Washington Post Sunday paper, although concerns around AI use persisted.

Fitzpatrick also questioned the detail of McConnell's left wrist, where there is a clear change in skin tone at the wrist joint, going from lighter on the arm to darker on the hand.

Far-right American political activist Laura Loomer also wrote on the platform that McConnell's staff "appear to have used an AI altered photo," adding "they are never going to recover from this."

These are not the first conspiracies to have escalated about the senator's health, and even the Republican lawmakers and political figures who have recently claimed to have spoken with McConnell have become the target of speculation.

Republican strategist Scott Jennings was one of the figures who said they'd spoken to McConnell recently, and was confronted with some suspicion.

He posted on Sunday, sharing a clip of an interview with CNN, writing: "The thing about being honest is that you never have to worry about a darn thing."

On July 7, he said on X he had spoken to his "old friend" McConnell, saying he was still recovering in the hospital. Social media users quickly commented on the post, disparaging it, while suggesting the senator had passed away.

Jennings on Saturday then posted a GIF, which read: "Well, well, well, how the turntables..."

Social media users also asked Grok, the AI assistant developed by Elon Musk’s company xAI, whether the image could be AI-generated.

In its responses on X, Grok said: "Modern AI-generated images can be virtually indistinguishable from authentic ones, so visual inspection alone isn't always conclusive."

"Close look at the left wrist and newspaper shows realistic skin texture but also subtle inconsistencies in text layout/overlap and hand details that match common AI artifacts. Reports and detection tools confirm this viral photo is AI-generated, not a real post from McConnell," it continued.

However, when Newsweek asked Grok if the image was AI-generated, the AI assistant said that "this image does not appear to be AI-generated," as it had come from McConnell's official account, meaning it was from a post of "legitimate political communication."

When have facts ever stopped a conspiracy theory?

When have facts ever stopped a conspiracy theory?

Too right. If the UK were to completely drain Loch Ness, post real-time video of the entire process, and catalogue every single bit of life - from the smallest microbe to the largest salmon - found therein, some people would STILL insist that the family of plesiosaurs were removed prior to the operation and were being held in a secret government facility managed by the Illuminati and financed by the Rothschild banking conglomerate.

I don't think it's AI but it could be an old photo. It would have been just as easy to take a video of him saying something. Sometimes I think they make conspiracy hay on purpose.
