It’s not as if Donald Trump has been shy about injecting his “Trump brand,” repeatedly, into major urban landscapes all across the 90’s and the world; he did so primarily by simply riveting “his name” — for over six decades — “onto skyscrapers that he didn’t build …” — now, even on the facade of a martyred predecessor’s monument … the legendary “John Fitzgerald Kennedy Memorial Center for the Performing Arts.”
It’s SO—“Egyptian!”
It’s what pharaoh (the Founders’ “ancient Egyptian model” for “the American presidency” …) also routinely used to do:
Splashing their names all over earlier “monuments and temples,” seeking to literally transfer “the psychic and political energy of the prior, Old Regimes–
“To Theirs.”
That’s what Trump … very obviously … is trying to pull off, now–
In 2026!
Literally — harvesting/stealing “Kennedy’s ‘magical reserves’ of decades of ‘accumulating public good will and collective psychic energy …'”–
And then directing it … as his own!
But, of course, to plan, let alone carry out such an extraordinary “heist” … again, in the “scientific” 21st Century… you must first believe in the entire “absurd concept”–
That “psychic, transmissible energies …” are, in fact, REAL!
Enter: “Hyperdimensional Physics” ….
Hi, I’m Richard Hoagland.
In 1969, as footnoted above, I was “selected” (I now believe, deliberately ..) to write a Special “WHY We are Going” Section of the official “Apollo Program Press Book” — titled imaginatively “the Moon” — for NASA’s Prime LM Contractor (Grumman Aircraft Company).

Grumman’s bid for APOLLO had been accepted by NASA years before my “invitation”; a massive government contract to “design and build the ‘first, true space vehicle'” (it had NO streamlining!) — that could physically transport US astronauts down to the surface of the Moon — to be called the “lunar module”(LM); I was being deliberately “invited into the club”(why not Sagan?!) … and asked to write the “Big Pictures Reasons …” for WHY we were going to the Moon … besides–
“To beat the Russians.”
The Grumman press book, besides my own dedicated “Moon Chapter,” contained “every other scrap of obscure engineering detail and technical break-down on Grumman’s ‘development, assembly and testing program for this unprecedented vehicle'”; I can’t count how many times I would see Walter Cronkite — sitting by the pool before a launch — painstakingly going through these “voluminous Apollo Mission notebooks” (NASA’s two other “prime contractors” — North American Rockwell and Boeing — published similar spacecraft and booster details).
But Grumman’s “lunar module” was THE “crucial-half” of the Apollo Program — designed, with unprecedented engineering, specifically to allow humans to land “where no one had landed before ….”
And RETURN.
In the late 1960’s, if this “one-of-a-kind,” first real spaceship — the Lunar Module — didn’t work … NO American (or, anyone else!) was going to physically explore the legendary “mysteries of the Moon,” OR–
“Beat the Russians.”
That’s the big thing that seemed to be everyone’s basic reaction to Apollo at the time (remember, I was there …)–
“BEAT the Russians!”
Certainly, everyone around me at CBS (I had, in fact, just been hired to be Walter’s official “science advisor” on Apollo) was focused on “the Race.”
I was alone (literally!) as the guy at CBS who was pursuing the “MUCH Bigger Picture” of Apollo ….
On — the INEVITABILITY of “stunning scientific discoveries” we would be making someday … with “routine human access” to the Moon; and, the “robber-baron” space industries that would INEVITABLY be “born,” at a REAL “moon base” Americans (hopefully soon …) would one day establish on the Moon ….”
All stemming from these “historic first Apollo explorations” I was being asked to forever “immortalize” … — in NASA’s OFFICIAL “Apollo Program” lunar press book ….
“Space Industries” — which, with the Trump Administration’s sudden decision to establish a bona fide “2001-type MOON BASE” at the lunar South Pole (!) — brings what I was trying to describe … 58 years BEFORE–
Full Circle.
Trump’s NASA Administrator, Jared Isaacman, announced just a few days ago NASA’s stunning New Plan to “build a NASA moon base on the Moon.”
What Isaacman presented looks a LOT like “Hoagland’s Moon-base … published officially by NASA in 1969–
Decades BEFORE Donald Trump would (VERY quietly) give the “go ahead” to actually BUILD “what Hoagland wrote about … ~60 years before ….
No pressure …
I was 24.
I have little doubt all these decades later, that my “improbable NASA selection” was part of a “much larger” Plan (Jung called such “life-changing events” — synchronicities …), likely involving Arthur Clarke; a “NASA selection” that would later, strategically, place me in a unique position to have “first-hand access” to NASA’s entire, voluminous Apollo data base and image Archives” — including, the literally “tens of thousands of in-situ astronaut lunar photographs” taken ON the Moon.
Having, after 60 years, examined almost ALL these priceless images — from all six Apollo missions — I have NO SCIENTIFIC DOUBT that humans “DID physically go to the Moon” … beginning in 1968.
And there, the Apollo astronauts personally SAW (and, were then “medically assisted,” for decades, to forget!) the “Impossible”–
“ET ruins … on the Moon.”
Ruins and LIVE cities that the crew of “Artemis II” also HAD to see, just “a few weeks ago!!” … and, through their amazing Farside PHOTOGRAPHS, have now–
OVERWHELMINGLY CONFIRMED!
Including–
“Glowing, living CITIES” — photographed THOUSANDS of times during their “hour in eclipse,” with “hand-held telescopes and ~$10,000-dollar cameras” — by the four 21st-Century “discoverers” … gazing across a “mere 5000 miles” … at a shockingly “lit up” lunar night Farside!
“Neighbors” … on the Moon!
And, President Donald Trump — who loves to talk about EVERYTHING, including ALL new developments at NASA these days — TOTALLY silent … on ANY of this … since April!
The one thing that would GUARANTEE his “historical supremacy” … over ALL other presidents, if not ALL histories’ preceding “rulers” ….
Trump would OWN history — as we flatly predicted in our “Presidential Briefing Video,” hand-delivered to the White House (well, electronically) in 2018.
So … why is Donald Trump REJECTING the “immortality” he’s always LONGED FOR … that History (and Enterprise) has now dropped directly in his lap!?
Shouldn’t “somebody” … call Rogan?
Stay tuned ….
