Every time you think 2020 can't get any more outlandish the universe shows up and tells you that you are simply WRONG.

This time, the universe LITERALLY showed up. A bizarre claim from former Israeli space security chief Haim Eshed is to blame.

Eshed has said that a group of alien intergalactic systems has made contact with the Earth, and that both the United States and Israel have come to an agreement with the group (known hereto as the "Galactic Federation") so that it "may research and understand the fabric of the universe."

However, Eshed says Earth has not joined said Federation as humans are not "ready" to experience alien life.

This is so wild and out of left field that immediately it received the meme treatment.





Also included in these crazy allegations is an underground base on Mars—home to American and alien representatives.

Eshed also implied US President Donald Trump was going to disclose the existence of said aliens, but the Galactic Federation stepped in "to prevent mass hysteria."





If there is such a Federation, what do they think of Earth?

"The Galactic Federation makes jokes about the Earth like we make jokes about Florida," said one user.





This year has been such a wreck for Earth that joining an intergalactic group of systems and being able to leave the planet might sound really appealing right now.

But aside from Eshed's word, no evidence exists that there is such a thing.

If there were, it would be the perfect cherry on top of 2020.

Dem Rep. Expertly Pinpoints Why Republicans Are Dismantling DEI Programs In Mic Drop Rant

Speaking during a House Oversight Committee hearing, Pennsylvania Democratic Representative Summer Lee expertly pinpointed why diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) programs are being targeted by Republicans nationwide, noting that "remedying past discrimination is not, in turn, a discrimination."

DEI programs are organizational strategies aimed at ensuring fair treatment and full participation for everyone, with a special focus on historically marginalized or discriminated groups. These frameworks strive to create an environment where all individuals, regardless of their identity or abilities, are valued and included.

People Describe The Absolute Best Meal They Ever Ate

I've traveled quite a bit—for work and pleasure—and had some memorable meals along the way.

There was the borscht, pierogies, and sausage at Polish restaurant Mazurka (R.I.P.) on Rue Prince-Arthur in Montreal, Canada. The poutine I sampled across Quebec and the Maritimes. All the fresh breads, doner kebabs, schnitzel, and baked French onion soups I ate while TDY in Germany. The yakisoba, sushi, and seafood curry I had while working for the DoD in Japan.

Gavin Newsom Admits He Has No Idea What A 'Zaddy' Is After Becoming Internet Meme

In the wake of the election, Democratic California Governor Gavin Newsom has risen to a new level of fame after he was tapped as the "future of the Democratic Party" in the wake of Kamala Harris's loss.

That of course meant it was only a matter of time before all the internet's young people turned him into a meme. And THAT of course meant it was also only a matter of time before he became an object of people's thirst.

Elon Musk Mocked For Hilariously Wrong Prediction About Matt Gaetz—And Yeah, That Did Not Age Well

After former Florida congressman Matt Gaetz dropped out of contention for President-elect Donald Trump's Attorney General post, a hilariously over the top post from billionaire Elon Musk—who is tapped to lead Trump's "Department" of Government Efficiency—resurfaced that showcases how wrong Musk was about Gaetz's future within the second Trump administration.

Gaetz was previously the subject of a Justice Department investigation into alleged sex trafficking involving a 17-year-old girl and has faced scrutiny from the House Ethics Committee over accusations of sexual misconduct. However, that inquiry effectively concluded last week when Gaetz announced his resignation from Congress.
