‘The Galactic Federation interviews Earth for membership’ is the best possible follow-up to the Trump aliens story
In ‘Seems about right for 2020’ news, a former Israeli spy has told a newspaper that aliens have made a deal with the US government to be allowed to remain in hiding to carry on their experiments on Earth.
We’re not sure what’s less believable – that aliens exist and are already on Earth or that Donald Trump has been able to keep a huge secret that doesn’t involve his tax returns.
When the New York Post reported 87-year-old Haim Eshed‘s story, complete with the nugget that the aliens belong to a thing called The Galactic Federation, Twitter responded with jokes like these:
“In hiding?” Then who was that in line behind me at the grocery store? https://t.co/sgYBkNFgFX

Actor and comedian, Vinny Thomas, imagined how Earth’s application for membership of The Galactic Federation might come unstuck at the interview stage, and it throws some serious shade.
