'Infowars' host Alex Jones theorizes that the infamous glowing "orb" that President Trump and Saudi King Salman were pictured touching over the weekend is actually a technological crystal ball -- an advanced "control panel" wired in to the NSA's Palantir program which has just gone online in Riyadh.



Trump-backer and Silicon Valley wizard Peter Thiel named his NSA surveillance tool "Palantir," after the crystal balls used by wizards in the Lord of the Rings novels.



"Did crystal balls exist 1,000 years ago? Probably not. But they do now," Jones said. "With the data from Google and the NSA."

ALEX JONES: The NSA and the Palantir program gave the Saudis the access to our NSA database.



That's the big story no one is reporting, that crystal ball they had was the control system for powerpoint in a giant threat fusion center with over 500 desks, and a huge heads up 3D display.



Everyone is like: What's this orb about? Well that's the control system for the whole Palantir program.



Did crystal balls exist 1,000 years ago? Probably not. But they do now.



With the data from Google, NSA, you-name-it.
