Did CNN accidentally film two UFO spacecrafts? Footage from Mesa Arizona shows two odd flying objects skirting the edge of a massive dust storm covering the city. It all happened July 6, 2011 when CNN live feed from a dust storm captures what many think are alien UFO ships. NASA didn’t comment on the CNN footage. And it is difficult to really make out any details of the flying objects. The footage is from 2011. Maybe the footage was leaked by CNN, or NASA. If you believe in aliens, the lights and obscure shape of the possible UFO is interesting for sure. Too bad the video footage isn’t better. Can we all learn something from X-Files? Is the truth really out there?
UFO Captured by CNN
Could this be another hoax video placed on YouTube to simply get YouTubers interested in clicking? The footage was published by UFO Alien and has nearly 9,000 views. The bizarre fact that the video is from 2011 raises some hoax alarms. But stranger UFO footage that is much older has been recently circulating. It could be possible that the footage was finally leaked. Five years after it was shot. A disgruntle CNN employee could have taken the footage as a retirement gift. Or a NASA leak could be plausible as well. But not likely

For months, presumptive Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump has been saying he's going to "build a wall" on the US-Mexico border to keep out illegal immigrants and claiming that he's going to "make Mexico pay for it." And for months now, Mexicans have been posting variations of this joke on social media in response. That's what your MesaZona blogger loves about Mexicans - their sense of humor. Admittedly yours truly has both a re-VISIONist view where we need to look back at history [here in Mesa before the arrival of the Mormon 'pioneers' in the 1850's] and another forward-looking vision where a 6% sub-culture learns to share the power with the other 94% of the population, about half of whom are dis-engaged in local politics.
There was once a time when most Americans took streetcars to work every day. Nowadays, 85 percent of workers drive. And although a few different factors fueled this transition, the biggest one may have been a $425 billion investment over half a century in the world's most advanced network of highways: the Interstate Highway System.
Highways gutted American cities. So why did they build them? The 48,000 miles of interstate highway that would be paved across the country during the 1950s, '60s, and '70s were a godsend for many rural communities. But those highways also gutted many cities, with whole neighborhoods torn down or isolated by huge interchanges and wide ribbons of asphalt. Wealthier residents fled to the suburbs, using the highways to commute back in by car. That drained the cities' tax bases and hastened their decline.
