NovaRed Mining, a Canadian company dealing with critical copper infrastructure in British Columbia, decided the most qualified person to put on their board of directors was Kristi Noem. Yes, that Kristi Noem. It is so deeply funny but also terrifying that former MP Charlie Angus had to explicitly sound the alarm and call her an actual threat to Canada’s security. We are talking about a strategic resource that is vital for the future of the continent’s energy grid, and this corporate entity looks at a hyper-partisan American politician with a track record defined by bizarre controversies and horrific human rights issues, and says, yeah, that is who needs to be managing our mineral supply.
The sheer level of corporate grift and systemic brain rot on display here is genuinely staggering. This isn’t just a bad hiring decision, it is a glaring exposure of how these mining companies operate behind closed doors, treating essential resource development like a playground for political favors and right-wing branding stunts. Angus calling this out is completely justified because dropping an aggressive foreign political actor into the governance of a major domestic copper venture is a massive liability. It completely derails the credibility of the project and forces you to realize that these executives care infinitely more about posturing and feeding the corporate machine than actually securing a stable, ethical supply chain.
Retired Air Force intelligence officer and pilot George Filer III said an unidentified craft landed or crashed near Fort Dix in 1978, after which a nonhuman being was allegedly shot by a military police officer and later found dead near the end of a runway at McGuire Air Force Base.
Filer presented the account during the Disclosure Project press conference held at the National Press Club in Washington in 2001.
He introduced himself as a retired intelligence officer and military pilot with nearly 5,000 flight hours.
Filer said he had not originally believed in UFOs.
According to his testimony, that changed during the winter of 1962 when London air traffic control asked his crew to pursue an unidentified object.
He said the object was hovering at around 1,000 feet and was detected by his aircraft radar from approximately 40 miles away.
Filer described the radar return as distinct and solid, leading him to believe the target was a physical and possibly metallic object.
When his aircraft approached to within roughly one mile, he said the object illuminated brightly and accelerated upward into space in a manner he compared to a space shuttle launch.
Filer later worked in military intelligence and said he briefed senior officers about UFO incidents.
He referred to the 1976 Tehran encounter in which Iranian F4 fighter aircraft reportedly experienced electrical and weapons system failures while attempting to intercept an unidentified object.
The central event in this testimony, however, allegedly occurred on January 18, 1978, around Fort Dix and McGuire Air Force Base in New Jersey.
The two military installations were located next to one another.
Filer said he was assigned to McGuire and regularly delivered morning intelligence briefings to senior command staff.
According to his account, he noticed unusual lights near the end of the runway while entering the base that morning.
When he arrived at the command post, a senior master sergeant allegedly told him that unidentified objects had been operating around the base throughout the night.
Filer said the objects had reportedly been detected by radar, observed from the control tower and reported by aircraft.
He was then told that one object had either landed or crashed near Fort Dix.
According to the information Filer says he received, a nonhuman being emerged from the craft and was shot by a military police officer.
The being was reportedly wounded and began moving in the direction of McGuire Air Force Base.
Filer said McGuire security personnel later found the body near the end of the runway.
He did not claim in this testimony that he personally saw the craft, the shooting or the body.
His account of those elements was based on what he says was reported through military command and security channels.
That distinction is important.
Filer presented himself as an intelligence officer who received and checked operational information, not as the direct eyewitness to every part of the alleged encounter.
He said he was asked to include the incident in the morning briefing for the general staff under General Tom Sadler.
Filer was hesitant because of the extraordinary nature of the report and because he was uncertain whether he believed it.
Before presenting it, he says he contacted the 438th Command Post to verify the story.
According to Filer, the personnel he contacted provided substantially the same account.
He then prepared to deliver the information during the morning command briefing.
Shortly before he was scheduled to speak, however, he says he was instructed not to mention the incident because it was “too hot.”
Filer interpreted this as an order to withhold the event from the normal briefing process.
The account is often referred to as the Fort Dix McGuire incident and has sometimes been described as the “Roswell of the East.”
The comparison reflects the alleged combination of a landed or crashed craft, a nonhuman occupant, military recovery activity and subsequent secrecy.
However, the evidence presented in this particular clip is testimonial.
Filer does not display photographs of the alleged body, a recovery report, medical documentation or physical evidence from the site.
The testimony also does not identify the military police officer who allegedly fired the shot or the security personnel who reportedly recovered the body.
Filer’s professional background gives context to why he may have received unusual operational reports, but it does not independently prove that every detail communicated to him was accurate.
The strongest part of his account is the claimed internal consistency of information from several military sources.
He says the command post, base personnel, radar operators, control tower and aircraft reports all indicated unusual activity during the same period.
The most difficult part to verify is the claim that a nonhuman being was shot and recovered.
Filer concluded by stating that he was prepared to tell the story before Congress and testify that his account was true.
If an unidentified craft was tracked around two adjoining military installations and a body was recovered near an active runway, what records were created that night and where are they now?

Donna Hare was a design illustrator and draftsman employed by Philco Ford Aerospace, a NASA contractor, from 1967 to 1981.
According to Hare, much of her work was performed at NASA facilities, where she created launch and landing slides, projection materials and lunar maps.
She said she held a Secret level security clearance that allowed her to enter some restricted areas, although she emphasized that it was not among the highest levels of clearance.
During periods between missions, Hare said she sometimes accepted additional work.
On one occasion, she entered a NASA photographic laboratory located across the hallway from where she normally worked.
While speaking with a technician inside the laboratory, Hare said her attention was drawn to an aerial photograph showing terrain and pine trees.
A round object appeared in the image.
Hare initially asked whether the object could simply be a defect in the photographic emulsion.
According to her testimony, the technician smiled and replied that round defects in the emulsion do not cast round shadows on the ground.
Hare said the object appeared to cast a shadow at the same angle as the nearby trees.
She described it as a UFO in the literal sense of an unidentified flying object because she did not know what the object was.
Hare then asked the technician what would happen to the photograph.
According to Hare, he told her that such objects were routinely removed with an airbrush before the images were released or sold to the public.
The technician’s identity was not disclosed, and the original photograph described by Hare has not been publicly produced.
Her account therefore relies on her recollection of the image and the conversation.
After this experience, Hare said she began asking other people who worked at the facility whether they had encountered similar material.
She said she learned that such questions had to be asked away from the work site.
Hare also recounted a separate story told to her by a security guard.
According to her, the guard had been instructed to burn photographs without examining them while another guard watched him.
She said he eventually looked at one of the photographs and believed it showed a UFO.
Hare claimed that the man was then struck in the head, rendered unconscious and left terrified by the incident.
Unlike the photo laboratory encounter, Hare did not personally witness this event.
She was repeating what the guard allegedly told her.
Hare also said she knew someone who had worked in quarantine with Apollo astronauts.
According to her account, this person told her that Apollo astronauts had seen unknown craft on the Moon and were instructed not to discuss what they had observed.
This claim was also second hand.
Hare delivered this testimony publicly during the Disclosure Project event held at the National Press Club in Washington DC on May 9, 2001.
The event brought together military personnel, intelligence officials, aviation professionals and government contractors who presented allegations involving UFO secrecy and classified programs.
Hare later expanded on her experiences in a longer interview devoted specifically to her claims about NASA photographs, the photo laboratory and the Apollo program.
Her employment with a NASA contractor provides context for how she could have entered the facilities she describes.
However, it does not by itself verify the extraordinary claims.
No original photograph, laboratory record, named technician or official directive ordering the removal of unidentified objects has been publicly authenticated in connection with her testimony.
The strongest part of Hare’s account is the incident she says she personally experienced inside the photo laboratory.
The stories involving burned photographs and Apollo astronauts were information she says she received from other people.
Her testimony therefore contains both a claimed direct observation and several second hand accounts.
The central question remains whether unidentified objects were deliberately removed from official photographs before those images reached the public.
If the photograph still exists in an unaltered archive, could modern digital analysis determine what Donna Hare says she saw?

Much like critical minerals, getting people who are young in our political system is just as critical.
The swamp must be drained.
