Flat Earth conspiracy theorist David Weiss has now claimed aliens live in hidden parts of the Earth. Weiss initially wanted to disprove flat earth but then became part of the conspiracy. On a podcast with James English he explained: "I was doing really well and I'm looking into this flat earth thing and I said 'oh it's so stupid, of course we know the Earth is not flat. I mean how could it be flat? This is crazy what about all the other planets?" "But then I uh tried to disprove flat earth. I'm gonna prove all you flat earthers to be dum-dums and I'm just gonna be done with it, and that's how you become a flat earther." He explained that his biggest turning point was discovering a map - said to have been made in Tibet tens of thousands of years ago - that shows our familiar continents surrounded by a ring of ice. Beyond the ring are new contents and lands, with names such as Hapis and Thoth The Moving Island. Weiss asked, "all those extra continents, what's going on out there?" Sign up to our free Indy100 weekly newsletter Instead of extraterrestrials from outer space visiting our planet, Weiss believes that any unknown creatures that have been spotted have instead come from the lands beyond the ring of ice. Adding that UFOs are clearly from a base in these secret lands. "If there are people that live out there and they came to visit us, you might consider them an extraterrestrial from outer space." "Space travel is nonsense because space doesn't exist - but if they're coming from the outer lands they're right here." Weiss also stated that the discovery of the secret land helps explain the question many flat earthers are frequently asked, which is - why would anyone try to hide the shape of the planet? "It's to control the human race," he explained. "Your thoughts create the world that you're in - and if they can limit your thoughts they can put you in the Matrix. The heliocentric system, the globe, is a matrix. It's a matrix for your mind and it limits your thoughts." The Earth is Flat and Aliens Live Among Us - David Weiss Tells His Story www.youtube.com He also added that the sun, moon, and are planets are "sentient", and does not believe the sun to be a huge ball of gas in space, but in fact a living entity. The idea of the moon being sentient explains, for Weiss, why the moon landing is fake, saying "there's so many issues" and that cameras "wouldn't even work on the moon." And in fact, the moon landing was a ploy "to keep you believing the lie" that the Earth is flat." Have your say in our news democracy.

After England defeated Nigeria in a penalty shootout to progress in the Women's World Cup, the usual scenes of jubilation were stalled by a few Lionesses who decided to pay their respects to a defiant Nigerian side - especially their despondent goalkeeper Chiamaka Nnadozie. As Nigeria pushed England to the brink, the match threatened to be defined by an uncharacteristic Lauren James incident. The England star who only picked up one yellow card in the Women's Super League for Chelsea last season was handed a straight red for a bizarre stamp on Michelle Alozie just minutes before the end of regular time. For the Lionesses, their defining moments followed in short succession. Firstly, Chloe Kelly lashed in the winning penalty in the resulting shoot-out, before she rushed over to comfort a fallen Nnadozie with Alex Greenwood and Hannah Hampton. Sign up to our free Indy100 weekly newsletter Then, with a camera looming over a tearful Nnadozie, Kelly ordered it to back-off and away from the trio as they shared a moment of comfort in amidst the celebrations. It's safe to say that the moment caught some positive attention: Next in the Women's World Cup, England will play either Jamaica or Colombia on Saturday 12 August - and they will be without James. As for other news, Donald Trump decided to get himself involved in the discourse surrounding the USWMNT and their exit from the World Cup by igniting his bizarre feud with Megan Rapinoe.

Former president Donald Trump has again lashed out at the District of Columbia judge who will preside over his criminal trial and the prosecutor who brought the case against him for allegedly conspiring to disrupt certification of electoral votes following his 2020 election loss to Joe Biden. Mr Trump on Monday wrote on his Truth Social platform that Jack Smith, the Department of Justice special prosecutor who has obtained two federal indictments against him since June, is “going before his number one draft pick, the Judge of his ‘dreams’ (WHO MUST BE RECUSED!)” in an effort to “take away” the ex-president’s First Amendment rights. The twice-impeached, thrice-indicted former president was referring to a series of court filings in which Mr Smith is seeking a standard protective order to prevent Mr Trump from disclosing information which the government is set to turn over to him and his defence team as part of the pre-trial discovery process. Prosecutors, citing Mr Trump’s penchant for “public statements on social media regarding witnesses, judges, attorneys, and others associated with legal matters pending against him,” asked Judge Tanya Chutkan to impose an order barring the former president from disclosing discovery materials “directly or indirectly to any person or entity other than persons employed to assist in the defense, persons who are interviewed as potential witnesses, counsel for potential witnesses, and other persons to whom the Court may authorize disclosure”. Mr Trump’s attorneys asked the judge for extra time to compose a response to the government’s motion, but Judge Chutkan quickly ordered the defence to respond by 5.00 pm along with a proposal for an alternative protective order. The former president has a history of disclosing sensitive materials so the names of people involved in court proceedings against him could be leaked to his supporters. After the FBI searched his Palm Beach, Florida home on 8 August 2022, an unredacted copy of a search warrant receipt that had been given to his attorneys was published by Breitbart News, allowing the names of FBI agents involved in the search to become public. According to subsequent court filings, the agents who were named on the document were innundated with death threats after their names became known to the ex-president’s supporters.

YouTuber The Hardest Geezer, who is attempting to run the entire length of Africa, has shared details of his terrifying experience after being kidnapped. The Hardest Geezer, real name Russ Cook, is attempting to become the first person ever to complete the feat as part of “Project Africa”, with money being raised for charity. Cook had already been dealt a serious blow after being robbed at gunpoint earlier in his journey. However, the newest development saw him share details of recent days, which he described as “the toughest of my life.” Sign up to our free Indy100 weekly newsletter Posting on social media, Cook said he had recently become separated from his team after coming across impassable roads along the route. “In an attempt to find the boys at a village on the plan B route, I stumbled into a rural settlement where the chief told me I must give him money. I had none,” he wrote, describing the ordeal. “So that went down well. Pretty soon I found myself surrounded by lots of game blokes with machetes. Was escorted out the village into the bush. “Emptied my bag to show I had nothing but a half eaten biscuit. Gave it to them, and ran. Spent the next few hours bushwhacking through overgrown jungle paths. Trying to stay off any tracks until I was far away. “Made it to the village on the plan B route to find the road was also impassable for the support van again. Exhausted and dehydrated, I started heading back to the last known place with passable roads when two blokes pulled up on a bike. “They spoke no English but tried to communicate I must come with them to get back to my friends. Why I was forced to LEAVE Angola - I'm Running the Entire Length of Africa www.youtube.com “What happened next was a seven-hour motorbike ride deeper into the jungle. In my head I thought this was it. Me. The self proclaimed hardest geezer. About to get held in a Congo gulag before being ripped apart limb by limb and eaten.” He went on to say he had been driven to a village and taken into a hut. There, his captors decided what to do with him and decided how much money they owed him. Cook was able to contact his team, though, and over the next few days his team were able to reach him. Cook added: “We made it out. And travelled back to the start point of day 102, where I ran 60km today on our new route. “My head ain’t fully there right now. But we move the same way as always, forward.” Have your say in our news democracy. Click the upvote icon at the top of the page to help raise this article through the indy100 rankings.
