If 2020 wasn't a chaotic enough, you can now throw space aliens into the mix.
Haim Eshed—the former head of the Israeli space security program—told Israeli paper Yedioth Aharonoth that aliens don't only exist, but they've already made contact with humans.
According to Eshed, aliens have been communicating exclusively with the United States and Israel, warning the two countries that humans aren't ready to know they exist. Eshed claims they are already conducting experiments on earth.
Eshed said that there already exists a galactic federation and a secret underground base on Mars, where they've already begun working with humans.
Former head of Israeli space security program says aliens exist, but they think humans aren't ready, so they only communicate with the governments of the US and Israel. Trump found out and was going to tell everyone, but they convinced him to keep quiet. https://t.co/83oAY8u93T pic.twitter.com/ncNJSKTdsP

Eshed mentioned outgoing President Donald Trump in the tale, and claimed he almost put the cooperation in jeopardy:
"Trump was on the verge of revealing [the existence of aliens], but the aliens in the Galactic Federation are saying, 'Wait, let people calm down first,'' They don't want to start mass hysteria. They want to first make us sane and understanding."
The former general said that aliens were concerned the President would let the secret slip, foiling their plans to wait for a more evolved society before revealing their existence.
That aliens could convince Trump to keep from divulging the best kept secret in global history was, oddly enough, the most unbelievable aspect of the story for some.
"Trump found out and was going to tell everyone, but they convinced him to keep quiet."
I would believe Aliens exist before I believe that.

I'd sooner believe in aliens before accepting that Trump heard a secret and people actually got him to not blab about it at his next rally https://t.co/bCk7bgSUFd

This is not believable. They convinced him to keep quiet? https://t.co/chSAmPf74S

Least believable part about the Galactic Federation is that Trump knew something but didn't rage tweet it to the world. https://t.co/jYd7Gf0QHw

I find this impossible to believe, not that there is a Galactic Federation which communicates only with the American and Israeli governments, and not that there are Americans living in a secret underground alien base on Mars, but that anyone was able to keep Trump quiet about it. https://t.co/175EYGRpk7

You can tell this is fictional because the Galactic Council persuaded Trump to keep his mouth closed. https://t.co/NeBqqjajqw

Eshed's experience may make him a more credible source than most of the countless people who've claimed to see extraterrestrial beings in the past, but that didn't spare him from mockery online.
Finally. They introduced aliens in episode one of 2020 and just left them dangling, till now. https://t.co/nbebYDlcGx

my only question is whether there's an electoral college in the Galactic Federation https://t.co/Xvj3XfJhlp

Trump hasn't yet addressed the story.
