In case you weren’t aware, right now a giant interstellar object roughly the size of Manhattan is hurtling through our solar system. Dubbed 3I/ATLAS, scientists speculate that it’s nothing more than a natural comet or rogue planetary fragment. Calculations suggest that it poses no threat to Earth or her citizens and will miss us by millions of miles.

But Harvard astronomer Avi Loeb isn’t ready to dismiss 3I/ATLAS as a harmless astronomical entity. There are too many strange “coincidences” surrounding it.

Loeb’s theory?

Aliens.

On a recent episode of “The Glenn Beck Program,” Loeb told Glenn the four reasons he believes this is no ordinary space object.

The first reason 3I/ATLAS gives Loeb pause is its gargantuan size. 3I/ATLAS is significantly larger than its two predecessors, ‘Oumuamua and 2I/Borisov — a million times more massive than ‘Oumuamua and a thousand times more massive than Borisov.

“There is not enough rocky material in interstellar space to supply such a giant one once per decade to the inner solar system. We would expect it once per 10,000 years or so,” Loeb says.

The second reason he believes 3I/ATLAS could be a UAP is because according to Hubble Telescope images, the light the object emits is pointing “towards the sun,” as opposed to comets, where light points “away from the sun,” giving them a tail-like appearance.

“It’s just like seeing an animal in your back yard and everyone says, ‘Oh, it must be a street cat because it has a tail,’ but then you look at the photograph of this animal and you see that the tail is coming from its forehead,” Loeb says.

Reason number three is that “the trajectory of [3I/ATLAS] is aligned to within five degrees with the ecliptic plane of the planets around the sun.” In simple terms, it’s moving along the same “highway” as our solar system’s planets — an uncommon trajectory for interstellar objects.

“The chance of that is one in 500,” says Loeb, who says an alien life force would need to take this route if it wanted to do “a reconnaissance mission.”

Lastly, 3I/ATLAS’ arrival time is exceedingly peculiar. It’s passing through our solar system at a unique moment, coming very close to Mars, Venus, and Jupiter — a rarity given that these planets are constantly moving. You’d need perfect timing to line up near all three.

“That’s another coincidence that might indicate fine-tuning,” Loeb tells Glenn.

Although experts attribute 3I/ATLAS’ unusual traits to random chance, Loeb argues that the odds of such coincidences are “one in a million.”

A woman who suffered a medical episode fell unconscious and was killed by four dogs in her home, Florida police said.

The boyfriend of 38-year-old Monica L. Emerson called police to report that he had found her unconscious on the floor of her home on Spruce Street in Daytona Beach on Oct. 10. He said he went to her home after being unable to contact her by phone.

‘Four dogs were observed running freely within the home: one large adult male, mixed breed (the father), and three adult offspring.’

“Upon entering the home, he located her unresponsive on the floor and immediately contacted emergency services,” reads a statement from the Daytona Beach Police Department.

Police responded and found multiple injuries on Emerson’s body that were consistent with an animal attack. They determined that none of the injuries were caused by human involvement or the result of foul play. The injuries included cuts to her eyes, her lips, and her left arm.

“Four dogs were observed running freely within the home: one large adult male, mixed breed (the father), and three adult offspring,” police said.

The woman died at the scene.

A preliminary investigation found that Emerson was fatally attacked by the dogs after losing consciousness. The victim’s boyfriend said she was epileptic and took medicine twice a day.

Police did not indicate who owned the dogs.

Animal Control Services took custody of the dogs, and they were transported to the Volusia County Animal Control Services. The dogs will be held for 10 days before they’re euthanized.

Police said the investigation was active and ongoing.

At a time when conservatives are calling to divest from the Middle East and confront crises at home, Gaza is the last place America should pour time, treasure, or troops. What national interest do we have in defending a territory run by the most violent Islamists on earth?

Thanks to a coordinated online propaganda campaign — part cyber-jihad, part influencer echo chamber — some on the right have begun parroting communist and Islamist talking points about a “Gaza genocide.” Voices like Tucker Carlson now argue that Israel’s defense partnerships no longer justify U.S. involvement. From an America First perspective, that sounds reasonable: fewer entangling alliances, less foreign aid. But if Israel supposedly offers us nothing, what on earth does Gaza offer?

If we’re serious about an America First foreign policy, we should begin disentangling from the Middle East altogether.

On October 13, the entire communist world — and its pseudo-right allies — got what it wanted. Israel withdrew from Gaza’s populated areas and exchanged 2,000 terrorists for 20 hostages, trusting Hamas to disarm.

Peace in our time, right? More like no Jews, no news.

Hamas immediately reneged, of course, refusing to return most hostage remains and launching a campaign of public executions. The largest slaughter of Muslims in the Arab world wasn’t committed by Jews, but by other Muslims. Remove the Jews, and Gaza doesn’t grow peaceful — it turns on itself. Yet without Jews in the headlines, global media suddenly loses interest in reporting on “genocide.”

Once the internal purges were done, Hamas returned to its favorite target: infidels. On Sunday, terrorists emerged from tunnels in Rafah and attacked Israeli forces, killing two IDF soldiers. Snipers fired on Israeli positions near Jabalia. At the same time, Hamas used Gaza’s hospitals — Al-Shifa, Al-Ahli, Al-Aqsa, and Nasser — as makeshift detention and interrogation centers, confirming what Israel long claimed: Those “civilian” sites serve as terror bases.

Israeli troops now sit exposed, ordered to hold positions but forbidden to act pre-emptively. They’re surrounded by tunnels and terrorists, trapped in another international “ceasefire” that only empowers killers.

Gaza’s terminal disease

The “Free Palestine” lie has collapsed under its own weight. Rebuilding Gaza under Arab control isn’t just naïve — it’s suicidal. No society so steeped in religious violence can sustain peace or self-government. Hamas is not an aberration; it’s a symptom of a deeper rot in Islamic political culture.

So why is President Trump involving America in this mess through the so-called 20-point plan? For a movement that claims to oppose endless wars and foreign aid, the right’s silence on this scheme is baffling. The Pentagon has already confirmed plans to send 200 U.S. soldiers to the Gaza border. If Israel defending itself against Iran supposedly meant “Americans dying for Israel,” what exactly do we call Americans dying to protect Hamas from Israel?

The British blueprint

This entire plan was crafted by former British Prime Minister Tony Blair — the same man who recently declared Britain must become “a nation of global citizens.” No wonder it leads to deeper entanglement, not withdrawal. Once again, globalist bureaucrats are trying to pull America into Middle Eastern “peacekeeping,” which always means nation-building with American blood and money.

If we’re serious about an America First foreign policy, we should begin disentangling from the region altogether — starting by weaning Israel off U.S. weapons systems so it can act freely without American political interference. But under no circumstances should we send troops or tax dollars to Gaza. Peacekeeping there isn’t in our interest. In that part of the world, “peace” means paralysis, and paralysis means death.

The wolf and the lamb

President Trump’s desire to see the “wolf dwell with the lamb” is noble, even biblical. But Isaiah’s prophecy won’t be fulfilled through U.N. peacekeepers or Pentagon deployments. It won’t come through Islam, whose theology demands submission, not reconciliation.

Let Gaza be the Arab world’s problem. Let Israel defend itself without our restraint. And let America finally wake up to the rising threat of political Islam — in our own communities, not 6,000 miles away.

New York City is on the cusp of voting in Zohran Mamdani, a young democratic socialist and New York State Assembly member, as its next mayor. As of now, he is the clear front-runner. Recent polls show him leading with about 45% support, far ahead of rivals like independent Andrew Cuomo at 25%.

The promise of “free” everything has blinded many struggling New Yorkers into pledging their support for the Muslim communist, but Sara Gonzales, BlazeTV host of “Sara Gonzales Unfiltered,” warns that this is bound to end in a far bigger disaster than most of us realize.

Last Thursday, Mamdani participated in his first mayoral debate. Not only did he admit his plans to make everything free by taxing the living daylights out of people, but he also let slip his true intentions: Turn New York City into a lawless Muslim city.

Sara plays a clip from the debate, during which Mamdani criticized Cuomo for his lack of mosque attendance.

“It took Andrew Cuomo being beaten by a Muslim candidate in the Democratic primary for him to set foot in a mosque. He had more than 10 years, and he couldn’t name a single mosque at the last debate we had that he visited. And what Muslims want in this city is what every community wants and deserves. They want equality, and they want respect,” Mamdani said.

Sara is disgusted: “I would love to know, how many synagogues have you been to and not planted explosives? How many Christian churches have you been to, buddy?”

Blaze Media digital strategist Logan Hall adds, “If you told someone, one of the first responders after 9/11, that, ‘Hey, you know, 20 years from now, we’re going to be importing hundreds of thousands of Muslims, bringing them directly to this city, and the guy who has a very likely chance to be the next mayor is demanding that other candidates go visit mosques as a qualification for elected office,’ I don’t know … if they would have voted for that.”

On top of prioritizing Muslims, Mamdani contradicted his previous statements about supporting New York City police.

“I am looking to work with police officers, not to defund the NYPD, looking to ensure that officers can actually do one job when they’re signing up to join that department,” he said during the debate.

“That’s perfect, except he doesn’t actually believe that,” says Sara, who has a long list of receipts.

She plays old video footage showing Mamdani boldly admitting, “I am in favor of defunding the police.” His X account is also rife with similar statements: “Defund the Haram Police”; “Defund the police and build a socialist New York”; “What we need is to #DefundTheNYPD”; and “Queer liberation means defund the police,” among several others.

“And this guy now conveniently wants to tell New York City that he totally supports NYPD. The problem is, Zohran, that the internet is a thing and these screenshots are forever,” Sara says.

“I think this is a pretty clean-cut case of importing the third world,” Logan says.

“[Progressives’] entire criminal justice policy is to side with criminals and to make sure more crime happens. … They want more crime to happen because communists thrive on chaos and dysfunction. It allows them to grab more power and break down the barriers that would naturally restrain the state,” he continues. “So, they’re always going to side with the illegals. They’re always going to side with the criminals. They’re always going to side with the freaks that are terrorizing normal people and terrorizing your society.”

Guest Chad Prather, host of “The Chad Prather Show,” foretells New York City’s dismal future: “To be a citizen in New York City in the future is a death sentence. It is literally a dystopian nightmare. It is an apocalyptic movie. It is the end of the world. It is Armageddon. … It will be a death sentence if you live there. It will be murderous. It will be rapey. It will be a rampage of violence. There will be no justice. There will be no sense of bail. There will be no prison system. There will be nothing that punishes crime.”

“If this guy gets power, I’m telling you, within 10 years, it is the end of the state of New York.”

Last week, Politico exposed thousands of leaked messages from a private Telegram chat group of Young Republicans leaders across states like New York, Kansas, Arizona, and Vermont. The chats, spanning seven months earlier this year, revealed racist, anti-Semitic, homophobic, and violent jokes, including rape quips, praise for Hitler, gas chamber gags, and slurs against black, gay, Latino, and Asian people.

The messages were egregious, to say the least.

Peter Giunta, former chair of the New York State Young Republicans, wrote things like, “I love Hitler”; “Everyone that votes no is going to the gas chamber”; “I’d go to the zoo if I wanted to watch monkey play ball”; and “I’m going to create some of the greatest psychological torture methods known to man. We only want true believers.”

Joe Maligno, general counsel of the New York State Young Republicans, wrote, “Can we fix the showers? Gas chambers don’t fit the Hitler aesthetic.”

Bobby Walker, vice chair of the New York State Young Republicans, referred to rape as “epic.”

Annie Kaykaty, a national committee member in New York, wrote, “I’m ready to watch people burn now.”

In its exposé, Politico drew the following conclusion: “The chat offers an unfiltered look at how a new generation of GOP activists talk when they think no one is listening.”

Mainstream media echoed this, framing the Young Republicans Telegram scandal as proof of rampant racism, anti-Semitism, and violent rhetoric among Gen Z Republicans, portraying them as a toxic, far-right group shaped by Trump-era extremism.

Not so fast, Mark Levin cautions.

“I’m not willing to accept this total smear of an entire generation of Republicans,” he says.

“I’m willing to accept without equivocation that these people are sleazy, and what they said is outrageous. It’s bigoted. It’s racist. It’s anti-Semitic,” he says, noting that all involved deserve to lose their positions.

But these grotesque messages certainly are not indicative of the views of all young conservatives. What the media is attempting to do, he says, is use a scandal involving a handful of hateful individuals to smear Donald Trump.

In the Politico article, authors Emily Ngo and Jason Beeferman wrote, “The 2,900 pages of chats, shared among a dozen Millennial and Gen Z Republicans between early January and mid-August, chronicle their campaign to seize control of the national Young Republican organization on a hardline pro-Donald Trump platform.”

But the facts, Levin says, don’t support this narrative.

“Donald Trump [is] the greatest supporter of Israel and greatest active opponent of anti-Semitism in the history of the presidency,” he says.

A panel of judges on an appeals court has ruled that President Donald Trump can legally send National Guard troops to Portland in order to secure the area around a besieged federal facility.

Far-left anti-deportation activists have been protesting against the Immigration and Customs Enforcement facility in the city’s South Waterfront district, oftentimes with violence. The president has argued that military troops are necessary to quell the attacks and secure the facility.

‘The law, US Constitution, and supremacy clause back the President’s action to protect the public and law enforcement, and today this ruling has vindicated us.’

On Monday, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit ruled that the president was justified in the Oregon National Guard troop deployment.

On Thursday, the three-judge panel heard arguments from the Department of Justice to allow the deployment and also from Oregon officials against the order.

Local and state officials have argued that the troops are unnecessary and that the administration is exaggerating the violence at the facility.

Some lawmakers have gone so far as to accuse the administration of faking the violence out of political motivation.

“This is the first time I know of, at least in my lifetime, that the federal government has faked a riot in order to try to justify the Insurrection Act being invoked,” said Democratic Sen. Jeff Merkley of Oregon in a statement to CNN.

“Having illegitimately attempted to federalize the Oregon National Guard and being blocked because there is no ‘invasion’ or ‘rebellion’ in Portland, Trump continues to try to incite riots and violence,” he added in a Facebook post.

Others on the left have accused the president of using the troop mobilization in order to seize control of the streets and intimidate his political opponents.

This isn’t about public safety; it’s about power,” said Democratic Gov. Gavin Newsom of California to the New York Times. “The commander in chief is using the U.S. military as a political weapon against American citizens. We will take this fight to court, but the public cannot stay silent in the face of such reckless and authoritarian conduct by the president of the United States.”

Two of the judges on the panel were appointed by Trump, while the third was appointed by President Bill Clinton.

Department of Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem applauded the ruling in a post on social media.

“Another VICTORY for President Trump and the safety and security of the American people,” she wrote.

“The U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit ruled that @POTUS is rightfully using his Constitutional authority to direct the National Guard to protect federal assets, personnel and public safety in Portland, Oregon,” Noem added. “The law, U.S. Constitution, and supremacy clause back the President’s action to protect the public and law enforcement, and today this ruling has vindicated us.”
