In a new study published Thursday in the journal Science, researchers pieced together the chemical identity of the asteroid that fueled the planet’s fifth mass extinction event. Sixty-six million years ago, the story of life on Earth took a dramatic turn when an asteroid collided with what’s now the Yucatán Peninsula in Chicxulub, Mexico. The aftereffects of the collision resulted in the extinction of an estimated 75% of animal species, including most dinosaurs except for birds. But practically nothing of the asteroid itself remains. In a new study published Thursday in the journal Science, researchers pieced together the chemical identity...

The 36-square-foot stone also speaks of the mythical founding of the Mayan city-state Cobá.During a conference on August 12, Mexican president Andrés Manuel López Obrador announced that workers from the Ministry of Culture’s National Institute of Anthropology and History (INAH) had found a tablet engraved with Mayan hieroglyphs near Nohoch Mul, a pyramid in the Archaeologic Zone of Cobá in Quintana Roo on the Yucatán Peninsula. Indigenous peoples first settled in Cobá—derived from the Mayan word “Ko’ba a,” roughly meaning “choppy water”—between 350 BCE and 250 CE, with Mayan civilization blossoming between 600 and 1000 CE, or what historians of...

Anyone who has followed our coverage of the Pentagon's UFO investigatory office currently named AARO in its latest incarnation (All-domain Anomaly Resolution Office) is likely familiar with the name Luis Elizondo. ---SNIP--- Among the revelations is his testimony that his assignments revealed that there is no question about the existence of non-human, extraterrestrial intelligence. He claims that this nonhuman intelligence not only exists but is superior to our own. He describes it as being "at best" a serious national security issue and, at worst, "the possibility of an existential threat to humanity.” If that leaves you with an uncomfortable lump...

A diplomatic row is gaining steam between Mexico and the United States. Outgoing President Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador has accused the US of sponsoring opposition NGOs such as the group Mexicans Against Corruption and Impunity (MCCI) through USAID programs.

A congressman is vowing to help unravel the mystery behind Peru’s so-called “alien mummies.” Rep. Tim Burchett (R-Tenn.), one of the foremost voices in Congress on unidentified aerial phenomena (UAPs), declared that he would help get to the bottom of those puzzling Peruvian objects and recruit top talent to do so. “I will gladly help you … find someone that would analyze them,” Burchett told Mexican journalist Jaime Maussan on his show, “No Humano.” Last September, Maussan, who bills himself a “UFOlogist,” dragged a set of what he suggested were “non-human” remains to Mexico’s congress.

According to a report by the New York Times, the Biden regime is fast tracking the naturalization of migrants in America as part of a plan that consists of “reshaping the electorate, merely months before a pivotal election, per an observer that was quoted in the article. “The federal government is processing citizenship requests at the fastest clip in a decade, moving rapidly through a backlog that built up during the Trump administration and the coronavirus pandemic,” the New York Times highlighted. One Honduran woman cited in this article was amazed at the fact that immigration authorities were able to...

In an article published by Newsweek on August 7, 2024, Dan Gooding AND Billal Rahman make some incendiary claims. From the article: Immigration into the United States is being partly driven by gun violence — which itself is fueled by firearms bought in the U.S. and illegally transported back to Mexico by organized crime networks. Over 200,000 firearms found in El Salvador, Guatemala, Honduras and Mexico between 2015 and 2022 were linked back to the U.S., recent data from the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF) shows.The 200,000 number seemed interesting. This correspondent went to the ATF website...

The United States managed to arrest Mexico’s most-wanted drug lord, but Mexican prosecutors — and the president — now say they are considering bringing treason charges against those who handed him over. It’s part of the long, strange trail of Sinaloa cartel leader Ismael “El Mayo” Zambada, who unexpectedly appeared on a flight that landed near El Paso, Texas in July. That private plane flight was arranged by another drug capo who decided to turn himself in. U.S. officials say Joaquín Guzmán López — a son of imprisoned cartel leader Joaquín “El Chapo” Guzmán — flew to the United States...

Mexican diplomats in the United States blatantly meddle in U.S. internal politics. They protect illegal aliens,promote illegal immigration,campaign against U.S. legislation, promote dual citizenship, and strive to win the loyalty of Mexican-Americans born in the United States. Mexico has 52 (!) Mexican consulates on U.S. soil. Meddling is official Mexican government policy. This is all totally in the open, yet almost nobody in the U.S. government complains about it. But this would never occur in the conservative red state of Oklahoma, with its conservative governor, now would it? Until May of 2023, there was no Mexican consulate in Oklahoma, and...

Trump’s extremist policy agenda is flying under the radar — and that’s a problem. Donald Trump went on national TV last week and proposed bombing Mexico. Asked by Fox News’s Jesse Watters if he’d consider strikes against drug cartels operating in the country, Trump said yes — and framed his answer as a threat against the Mexican government. “Mexico’s gonna have to straighten it out really fast, or the answer is absolutely,” the former president said. This is not a one-off answer to a stray question. Trump suggested firing missiles at Mexico during his presidency, asked advisers for a “battle...
