Argentina’s next President Javier Milei, is making global headlines not just for his victory but also for his reputedly eccentric source of counsel — telepathic communications with his deceased dog, Conan.
What Happened: In 2017, after his dog Conan passed away, Milei reportedly spoke to his dog via a telepathic chat, Conan supposedly told Milei it was his destiny to become Argentina’s president.
The Economist asked Milei about claims that his dog was like an advisor to him. Milei didn’t deny it and proudly said, “What is it they say, that my dogs determine my strategies, yes?
