NARRATOR: Opium crops were
so prolific in the 1800s that
the British had their Indian
workers roll it into thousands
of soccer sized balls.
A sketch was made of stacking
rooms for these opium balls
in an opium factory in
Patna, India, in 1850.
They sat on wooden structures
almost looking like a library,
but the stacks were as
high as six story buildings
in vast warehouses, one
to two city blocks long.
Two superintendents
and 450 young boys
took care of the balls.
Aren't kids the best?
So what did the wealthiest Brits
and some of their wealthiest
American compatriots in the
British East India company
want with all this opium?
Were they pushing opium as
a religion for the masses,
as a form of social control?
The Russell family of opium
traders founded Yale University.
The Cabot family
of opium traders
helped found Harvard University.
The low opium traders, Columbia,
the greens, Princeton and so on.
Here's the best selling
author, James Bradley,
discussing it at the
Atlanta History center.
Cabot House at Harvard, I
discovered, that's opium money.
NARRATOR: By the later 1800s,
the Bayer company had turned
opium into heroin.
Bayer called heroin
a non-addictive cure
for adult ailments and
infant respiratory diseases.
A year later, it developed a
milder pain reliever, aspirin.
PRESENTER: Two Bayer tablets
bring all the pain relief power
your headache can use.
Bayer is pure aspirin,
not just pawn aspirin.
Bayer works wonders.
NARRATOR: Bayer
aspirin, from the people
that brought you heroin.
A parallel social control agenda
started in the late 1800s with
London med school
dropout Francis Galton,
who wanted to breed people for
better folks and do away with
the feeble races.
He used a mix of Greek terms
to create the word eugenics
from well-born.
Of course, the
aristocrat Brits who
bankrolled Fran G were the
superior race and all others,
feebles.
Fran G. counted
greenbacks as his books
got sent around the world like
the British East Indian opium
balls.
The new rich
industrialists rose up
against the royalty
and each side vied
for the workers help
against the other,
leading European countries
to get national health
care and a freer media and
halting eugenics in Europe.
The US didn't have royalty to
with the new industrialists,
many of whom had benefited
from opium money.
By 1912, the W.A.S.P
super wealthy families,
America's oligarchs, including
railroad tycoon E.H. Harriman,
the Rockefeller's
and Morgans, had
joined the Carnegie's in
sponsoring eugenics nationwide.
The oligarchs first targeted
over 11 million Americans
for sterilization
or elimination,
aiming for 10% of the
population at a time.
Heady days for the
pre-Hitler folk.
By the 1920s, these American
eugenicists invested in German
eugenics, which became Nazism.
Germany's Institute
for Hereditary Biology
and Racial Hygiene
blossomed under Rockefellers
and other oligarchs largesse.
Professor Antony Sutton, who was
a research fellow at Stanford
University's Hoover
Institute, exposed
how the top American financial
oligarchs had their companies
invest heavily in Nazi Germany.
For example, Sutton showed a
Moody's manual of investments
table from 1930s stating
the Ford Motor Company
and the Rockefeller's Standard
Oil and National City Bank share
directors with giant
chemical company IG Farben.
After World War II,
America's office
of strategic services,
OSS, turned into the CIA,
and ran operations
such as Sunshine
to get the Nazis down to South
America and other continents
to bring joy to the world.
It ran Operation Paperclip to
gain Nazi scientists safe haven.
They did this with the help of
the Red Cross and the Vatican,
obviously for public health
and religious reasons.
Archival records cite how
the CIA precursor OSS,
directed by Rockefeller,
Morgan lawyer Allen Dulles,
falsely claimed that Nazis
such as Adolf Eichmann,
Josef Mengele and Klaus
Barbie had died in the 1940s.
Klaus, the butcher
of Lyon, Barbie
went to Argentina
and then Bolivia.
Josef Mengele had
fled to Brazil.
Klaus may have been the most
barbaric of the Barbie family
in Bolivia, but there was
also his daughter, Ski Barbie,
his pie making wife, Baker
Barbie, and his hand glider
loving pilot son, Sky Barbie.
Similar to many Nazis
in Latin America,
Klaus Barbie became "a
fixer for drug lords"
as he "reinvented himself
with the help of Western
intelligence."
As this Reuters article
points out about Barbie,
he and other Nazis helped top
officials such as the Bolivian
interior minister, known
as minister for cocaine,
acting as an advisor.
Top CIA whistleblower,
Victor Marchetti
and British editor
Frances Stonor Saunders
then documented how
the American oligarchs
founded the CIA in 1947
and made its director
overseer of the other 14
plus intelligence agencies.
Reports of the numbers of
Nazis saved by the OSS and CIA
in Latin America ranged
from 9,000 to what a German
journalist, Herbert
John, reported as 50,000.
Did they aid the CIA
in cocaine trafficking?
When the Nazis arrived
in South America,
50,000 after the war,
they set up a network.
They taught the police,
the military security
forces how to enrich themselves.
And Barbie was the
man in Bolivia.
NARRATOR: 60 Minutes covered
how the former head of the Drug
Enforcement Agency, the
DEA, exposed the CIAs drug
trafficking.
MIKE WALLACE
(VOICEOVER): The head
of the DEA at the
time, Robert Bonner,
said that a ton of pure cocaine
worth hundreds of millions
of dollars had been smuggled
into the United States,
and he blamed the CIA.
NARRATOR: James Bradley's
book, The Imperial Cruise,
supported that the oligarchs
also had continued their opium
shipping well into
the 1900s and beyond.
They had further added more
of the pharmaceutical business
in the 1900s.
[MUSIC PLAYING]
(SINGING) Everyone has their own
perculiar kind of deterioration
Martin Lee and Bruce
Shlain's book, Acid Dreams,
along with Professor Al
McCoy's A Question of Torture,
and former Carter Presidential
administration official Hank
Albarelli detailed how
Operation Paperclip brought
Nazi scientists who had tested
mescaline on Jewish prisoners
into the US to work for
a project, MK-Ultra,
and other science programs.
This anthropology Today article
cited a declassified 1963 CIA
report summarizing various
MK-Ultra projects for control
of human behavior, including
radiation, electroshock
and chemical agents
like LSD and DMT.
The Anthropology Today article
also reported that "The extent
of covert CIA funding of
social science research during
the 1950s and 1960s
was extraordinary."
This funding coincided with the
Big Three, Ford, Rockefeller.
And Carnegie.
The CIA project
MK-Ultra whose name
was changed to
MK-Search in 1964,
secretly funded about 45
top American universities,
50 hospitals and 50 prisons
through an MK-Ultra front group,
the Human Ecology Fund, out
of Cornell University Medical
School.
Many of the funding
recipients can be seen here.
Professors at Harvard, Columbia,
Stanford, and Johns Hopkins
were among these recipients.
Some of this research
paid volunteers
to participate in psilocybin,
psychedelic mushroom and LSD
experiments.
The oligarchs hired Dr.
Sidney Gottlieb as director
of the CIAs project, MK-Ultra.
England's the Daily
Mail compared him
with James Bond's supervisor Q,
which shows how movies glamorize
barbaric spies.
Dr. Gottlieb had a clubfoot
but got around globally.
"CIA documents cited, in
a documentary by ABC News
confirmed, that Gottlieb
carried a stash of acid overseas
on a number of occasions"
to dose foreign diplomats,
statesmen along with promising
leftist artists and writers.
Psych Professor Timothy Leary
headed the CIAs Human Ecology
Fund experiments at
Harvard University
until Harvard kicked out
Leary and his acid addled,
egghead, professorial
sidekicks Richard Alpert
and Ralph Metzner in 1963.
William and Margaret
Mellon Hitchcock
of Mellon Bank and Gulf
Oil owning families
quickly entered the scene.
The Mellon Hitchcocks had family
in top US intelligence posts.
They funded a new acid promotion
group for Leary, Metzner
and Alpert, the International
Federation for Internal Freedom
IFIF.
IFIF instantly had headquarters
in Boston, New York, Los Angeles
and even one near
Acapulco in Mexico.
William Mellon Hitchcock had
a 38 room mansion on his 2,300
acre estate an hour north of New
York city, which Leary, Metzner,
and Alpert rented out very
cheaply for the next five years.
Agents, Dr. Humphry Osmond,
Captain Al Hubbard, Max,
Dr. Feelgood Jacobsen, And
NASA scientist Steve Groff
joined them.
Leary later admitted
that from 1962 onwards,
he knowingly worked for the CIA.
Psychologist Leary's
Millbrook mansion
was psychedelic central
for the whole East Coast.
The team of spies lured
many from New York City
up to the constant
Millbrook party
and initiated them to acid.
Left wing writer and
publisher Paul Krassner
said that a
pot-bellied Brit named
Michael Hollingshead, reported
as a propaganda agent,
guided him on an acid
trip that included
uncontrollable laughing for
an hour that he couldn't stop.
He laughed so hard
that he threw up.
Good times.
Ralph Metzner
described people saying
they were seeing
things not there
and walking into
doors or furniture.
Mind expansion at its best.
Another Millbrook visitor
named Arthur Kleps
swore that potbelly Hollingshead
placed a few thousand
micrograms of pure Sandoz acid
in some brandy by his bed.
Kleps ended up founding
an organization he named
"The Neo-American
Boo-hoo Church" in 1966.
Former Harvard
egghead Rich Alpert
kept his keen analytical
judgment when on one acid trip,
he thought he might
be able to fly.
He jumped out a second floor
window and broke his leg.

While the opium
shipping oligarchs
were having CIA agents promote
psychedelics on American masses,
they never took their
eyes off the top cash crop
prize of Poppy fields.
First, they focused on the
Vietnam area called the Golden
Triangle for Poppy fields.
They influenced politicians
to support the second longest
American war starting
in the 1960s.
Professor Al McCoy's book,
The Politics of Heroin,
detailed US intelligence's vast
opium and heroin trafficking
from Vietnam to the US
during the Vietnam War.
Frontline's Judy Woodruff
revealed a US intelligence
agents report attesting to their
bringing heroin into the US
during the Vietnam War.
JUDY WOODRUFF: But in 1972,
a US intelligence agent
in Southeast Asia sent a
secret field report to customs.
The CIA was, in fact,
facilitating the movement
of opiates to the US.
They steadfastly hid behind the
shield of secrecy and said that
all was done in the interest of
national security." end quote.
NARRATOR: Heroin
addiction and overdoses
were sent soaring in the
US, as shown in this chart.
As this picture shows,
heroin produced a huge boost
in the American stock market as
dirty profits from heroin sales
were laundered through profit
margins of banks and other stock
corporations.
Stockbrokers
celebrated nationwide
when large shipments of
heroin came into the US
as may have been implied here
in The Wolf of Wall Street.
[MUSIC PLAYING]
The four top political icons
of the 1960s, JFK, RFK,
MLK and Malcolm X, were actively
trying to end the Vietnam War.
President John F. Kennedy had
an apparent political sea change
while in office and
ended up declaring an end
to sending troops to Vietnam.
He also tried to close down the
CIAs operation MK-Ultra, firing
the CIA director and his
assistant who helped run it.
We would expect to withdraw
1,000 men from South Vietnam
before the end of the year.
If we are able to do that,
that will be our schedule.
A policy was put into place
to end the US involvement
in Vietnam and a formal
presidential decision
was taken in October of 1963
that would, if implemented,
have caused a full
pullout of US forces
from Vietnam by the end of 1965.
NARRATOR: New Orleans
District Attorney Jim Garrison
announced on The Tonight
Show with Johnny Carson
his findings about
the CIAs success
at protecting the American
oligarchs opium trafficking
interests.
At Dealey Plaza, there
were 10 men arrested,
and this has been kept secret
for more than four years.
Here are the pictures of
five of them being arrested,
and they've never
been shown before.
Several of these
men arrested have
been connected by our office
with a Central Intelligence
Agency of the United
States government.
I am trying to
tell you that there
is no question, as a result
of our investigation,
that an element of the
Central Intelligence
Agency of our country
killed John Kennedy
and that the present
administration is concealing
the facts.
There is no question
about it at all.
NARRATOR: Robert
Kennedy Jr. talked
with interviewer Russell Brand
about his uncle's assassination.
Here's Robert
Kennedy Jr. telling
of being called home from
school at nine years old because
of his uncle's death
in November of 1963.
And I arrived at the
same time John McComb
arrived at my house, who
was the director of the CIA
at that time, and my
father brought him
for a walk in the yard and
said the same thing to him.
Was it the CIA who
did this to Jack?
So my father's first
instinct, which
was a good instinct
it turns out,
was that the CIA had
killed his brother.
NARRATOR: In June of 1968,
Senator Robert F. Kennedy
won the decisive California
presidential primary,
marking the likelihood
of his winning
the Democratic nomination and
then gaining the presidency.
At the location of his
Los Angeles celebration
that election night,
gunman Sirhan Sirhan
fired multiple times
at Senator Kennedy.
A security guard just behind
Kennedy also fired his gun.
Decades later, a Harvard
Medical School hypnosis expert
analyzed Sirhan and said he
had conducted the assassination
while in a hypnotic state.
We came to a conclusion
that the muzzle distance would
be 1 inch from the right here.
INTERVIEWER: Now, how far
was Sirhan from Senator
Kennedy at the time?
I would say approximately
from 3 to 6 feet.
INTERVIEWER: Where was this
guard who was firing his gun?
He was standing directly to
the side and back of Kennedy.
NARRATOR: A CIA hypnotist
revealed his use of drugs
to help create
unknowing assassins.
WILLIAM BRYAN JR: So the use of
long-term hypnotic suggestion,
probably drugs,
whatever and so on.
Under these situations where
you have all this going for you,
yes, you can brainwash a person
to do just about anything.
NEWS ANCHOR: Brian
reportedly bragged
to two prostitutes who serviced
him regularly that he had,
in fact, hypnotized Sirhan.
[ELECTROCULT CIRCUS, "OH NO

Back in the UK, the
Beatles founding singer
got involuntarily dosed
with LSD in their coffee
by the dentist of fellow
Beatle George Harrison.
The dentist had the two
Beatles and their partners
over for dinner
and dosing in 1965.
A.E. Hotchner, a former
editor for Ernest Hemingway,
wrote the book Blown Away.
Hotchner wrote that
at the start of 1965,
MK-Ultra Assistant
Director Rob Lashbrook
had come to London with
loads of acid and CIA agents
to get acid in as many
musician's hands as possible.
In 1966, top American musician
David Van Cortlandt Crosby
invited the Beatles
to a party when they
were playing in Los Angeles.
Crosby's family was so
wealthy that they had New York
City's third largest park named
after the family's former estate
on 1,100 acres in the Bronx.
At that party with the
Beatles, Crosby and others
convinced Lennon and Harrison
to trip again, this time
with their drummer, Ringo Starr.
In 1967, an undercover
FBI and MI5 agent
would convince Rolling
Stones singer Mick Jagger
to try his first hit of acid.
Late author Dave
McGowan wrote the book,
Weird Scenes Inside the Canyon,
Laurel Canyon, Covert Ops
and the Dark Heart
of the Hippie Dream.
McGowan said David
van Cortland Crosby--
--and many American musicians
like him had little talent
before the oligarchs made them
instant stars in the Laurel
Canyon area of Los
Angeles in the 1960s.
McGowan had found that Crosby's
father was military intelligence
officer, Major Floyd
Delafield Crosby
and that most of these
Laurel Canyon rock stars
also had military families.
The oligarchs, including
Barbara Sears' Rockefeller's
first cousin, Vito
Paulekas, appeared
to pay for a bevy of
teen girls and some guys
to come to these
musician's first shows.
Paulekas taught dance
classes in Laurel Canyon.
Paulekas, his dancers
and these musicians
lured other musicians and actors
to their Laurel Canyon homes
with regular sex and drug
parties from 1966 onwards.
Paulekas instructed and even
housed many of these groupies.
They attended the parties
and helped turn many
on to acid, heroin,
cocaine and other drugs.
McGowens book, and
the book, Drugs
as Weapons Against
Us present evidence
that this whole scene was linked
to the CIAs Ultra program.
US intelligence already had
hundreds of agents in Laurel
Canyon working in the Air
Force's secret Lookout Mountain
film studio there, making a
reported 19,000 classified
motion pictures.
250 producers, directors,
technicians and actors,
both civilian and military,
all had top security clearances
or signed confidentiality
agreements about their work.
These included
Hollywood's biggest names.
While David Crosby may have
held the most sex and drug
parties in Laurel Canyon,
Papa John Phillips
also hosted regular
sex and drug parties.
Before starting the top selling
band The Mamas and the Papas,
Phillips had been
in the Naval Academy
with a dad who was a
Marine Corps officer.
He then played folk
music in New York.
When Papa John was 27,
he left his first wife
aristocratic Susan Adams,
a direct descendant
of President John Adams.
Attendees of Papa John
Phillips drug orgy parties
included top Hollywood
stars and musicians,
along with Charles
Manson and his followers.
Papa John had also traveled
north to act as the father
of San Francisco's
Summer of Love in 1967,
when he invited millions to the
area with the hit song he wrote
for his friend Scott McKenzie
about coming to the acid
saturated San Francisco,
"Be Sure to Wear Flowers
in Your Hair."
Mackenzie Phillips said her papa
John introduced her to drugs
when she was the age of 11
by injecting her with cocaine
like any good dad would.
He was America's papa.
When Mackenzie was
getting married in 1979,
John apparently didn't want
to give away the bride.
Instead, he gave her
drugs and alcohol
the night before the ceremony.
Mackenzie said this
is when she was first
raped by her father
in a hotel room
when she was 18 while passed
out after a drug binge.
He should have written
a song about it.
"Partying with Dad.
Be Sure to Wear
a Chastity Belt."
Here's CNN's Larry King
interviewing Mackenzie.
All I remember is arriving
in the room, getting high.
I was in the act of
having sex with my father.
LARRY KING: What did you think?
What did I think?
I thought, how did this happen?
How did I end up here?
[MUSIC PLAYING] All
the leaves are brown
All the leaves are brown
And the sky is gray
And the sky is gray
And I'm screwing my daughter
before her wedding day
NARRATOR: Mackenzie said
she then had a, quote,
"consensual incestuous
relationship with her dad for 10
years, ending it only
when she got pregnant,
fearing the baby was
his, and aborted it."
Still, for a while
there, it must
have been very
exciting for Papa John
that his daughter might
be having his child
and grandchild at the same time.
But let's get back to that
idyllic 1960s music scene in Los
Angeles.
The third biggest Laurel
Canyon drug orgy party host,
Frank Zappa, had grown
up next to the MK-Ultra
collaborating Edgewood
Arsenal complex,
where his father worked
in US chemical warfare
research and human mind
control experimentation.
Pamela Des Barres, who wrote
the popular groupie memoir,
With the Band, told rock
historian Barney Hoskyns
about attending these Laurel
Canyon sex and drug parties.
Des Barres said Rockefeller
cousin Vito Paulekas and Zappa
never got high.
They were both ringmasters who
always wanted to be in control.
So were the teen girl
orgies only for fun,
drugging celebrities to promote
drugs to the world, blackmail
or all of the above?
US intelligence
appeared to also use it
for creating drugged
and traumatized victim
assets for future operations
to be discussed more later.
By 1970, Eric
Burdon & the Animals
had moved into Frank Zappa's
party house called the Log
Cabin.
Dave McGowan said that "The
cabin had by then become
a mandatory stop for all
visiting British invasion
bands," a possible CIA and
British Tavistock Institute
strategy appeared of introducing
British bands to acid and other
drugs.
This is further supported by the
fact that in the early to mid
1960s, several military officers
manipulated writer Ken Kesey
to form a group called the Merry
Pranksters in the San Francisco
Bay area.
The pranksters toured
the US and Canada
promoting acid, speed and other
drugs in their psychedelic bus.
They also held dozens
of acid festivals
attended by CIA scientists
and others in US intelligence.
People then influenced the
Beatles to make the Magical
Mystery Tour album and The Who
to write their hit song "Magic
Bus," promoting acid.
Rock talk radio
host Allan Handelman
said Frank Zappa ended
up leaking some of this,
saying the CIA was giving
acid to the hippies.
I remember Frank Zappa telling
me one of my first interviews
that the CIA was giving out the
LSD to hippies in San Francisco,
or I guess the Bay Area back
in the '60s, at the same time,
busting them at night.
[ELECTROCULT CIRCUS, "OH NO
(KEEP IT ALIVE)"] Your mind was
never meant to mess with anyway
As noted, Charlie
Manson and his family
attended many of these Laurel
Canyon parties starting in 1968.
Dave McGowan,
particularly pointed out
how the actions of Rockefeller
cousin Vito Paulekas
matched that of Manson.
Vito and Charlie's
flock both adopted
nicknames to aid in the
depersonalization process,
and both were
introducing sexuality
at a very young age in live
sex shows for his followers.
And finally, Vito encouraged
his followers to drug themselves
while he himself
largely abstained,
helping him to maintain
control while Manson
limited his own drug intake
for the very same reason.
The particular importance of
these parallel actions covered
in McGowens book came in 2019.
That year, Little,
Brown and Company
published Chaos, Charles Manson,
the CIA, and the Secret History
of the Sixties.
Award winning investigative
reporter Tom O'Neil
spent 20 years turning a feature
article assignment for Premiere
magazine into the book Chaos.
The name chaos came from a CIA
program that overlapped the CIAs
MK-Ultra program.
It could also apply to what
too much acid would cause
in millions of people's brains.
Manson committed crimes
that had him end up
in prison in San Francisco
with a 1967 release.
Charlie Manson left
his heart and brain
in San Francisco
or a CIA MK-Ultra
doctor shaped them there.
One CIA whistleblower called the
1967 Haight-Ashbury neighborhood
of San Fran, a "human
guinea pig farm."
And author Tom O'Neil
described how MK-Ultra--
--Dr. Lewis Jolyon
Jolly West made
Charlie and his
bizarrely instant family
of teen runaway girls
his guinea pigs.
Chaos author Tom
O'Neil's biggest coup
was obtaining the letters
between Dr. Jolly West
and his CIA handler, MK-Ultra
Director Sidney Gottlieb.
Here's author O'Neill
telling interviewer Joe Rogan
about the letters between Dr.
Jolly West and MK-Ultra Director
Gottlieb.
And in the case of Jolly West,
he was first in the air force,
and then he was in
university settings.
And in one of his
letters to Gottlieb
asking for more funding.
So these people are
getting LSD, which
is a pretty powerful drug
and other drugs he was using,
and he was hypnotizing
them in some
of-- many of his experiments
without their knowledge.
NARRATOR: By 1967, Jolly West
started the Haight-Ashbury
Project, particularly
working out
of the Haight-Ashbury
free medical clinic
HAFMC, where its director,
David Smith, gave him an office.
With his family of
young teen girls in tow,
Manson became a
mainstay at the HAFMC,
attending weekly and some
weeks when he appeared
at the clinic every day.
After interviewing
author Tom O'Neil,
Joe Rogan interviewed
former CIA agent Mike Baker
about some of
O'Neill's information
on MK-Ultra and the
Haight-Ashbury free medical
clinic.
They also discuss Manson's
early release from jail and use
of CIA tactics.
Yeah, working at the
Haight-Ashbury free medical
clinic, that's where Manson
would go along with some of his
followers.
And they were part of a study.
And they were, I'm sure,
getting their LSD from there.
Do you know that clinic
closed down about four months
after Tom's book came out?
Been open for over 50 years.
It's crazy.
What are the odds?
Yeah, I know.
And he also seem to employ the
same techniques that apparently
the CIA had employed when
they had done experiments
on prisoners.
NARRATOR: This large family of
teen girls and some guys such
as a 13-year-old girl sodomized
by Manson while the others
watched, lived for over two
years with him with no known
wages.
Yet they somehow afforded
a large stockpile of guns.
Author O'Neal said they further
followed the MK-Ultra practices
as they sought out
impressionable young men,
invited them to an all
girl orgy and offered them
a plethora of narcotics,
including marijuana
quietly spiked with LSD.
It was a technique they'd
refined into an art form.
The Manson girls also likely
made Dr. West jollier.
Judge Louis Waschneck
confirmed that Manson
must have been working for
the government as an informant
or an agent because someone
wanted him out of jail doing
what he was doing.
By December of 1967,
the Manson family
had moved to Los
Angeles, where they soon
spent six months living at the
foot of Rustic Canyon in Beach
Boys drummer Dennis
Wilson's house as Manson
and the family set
up shop in his home.
Manson commanded the girls to
service the men in every way.
Through Wilson,
Manson fraternized
with some of the
biggest names in music,
copying MK-Ultra's agenda
of introducing acid
to musicians there.
And at Laurel Canyon
parties, Manson
transported his family
of girls in his large bus
to these parties, distributing
acid and supplying
young girls for the orgies.
Chaos author Tom
O'Neil also talked
with forensic psychologist
and law professor Alan
Scheflin regarding Manson.
O'Neill asked Scheflin, who
had written a book on MK-Ultra,
if Manson was an MK-Ultra
experiment gone wrong.
No, he said, an MK-Ultra
experiment gone right.
[MUSIC PLAYING] I wish they all
could be Manson family girls
I wish they all could
be Manson family girls
In 1968, Manson also converted
a one time Christian minister.
Dean Moorhouse went from working
as a Christian minister to being
a Manson family acid dealer.
A seamless transition.
By August of 1968, the
Beach Boys' Dennis Wilson
decided to force the Manson
family out of his home
after six months of
constant parties.
The Manson family then
moved to the Spahn Ranch
that had been the site
of a large movie set
for cowboy westerns.
By February of 1969, famed
movie director Roman Polanski
and his actress
wife, Sharon Tate,
were renting a home on Cielo
Drive in the Hollywood Hills.
Also, by early 1969
in LA, Sharon Tate
turned to activist organizing.
Tom O'Neil said "the Tate
house by then had become a high
profile gathering place for
liberal Hollywood, among others,
for actors Jane Fonda, Cass
Elliot, and Warren Beatty,
all three of whom were
under FBI Surveillance."
This group also
included coffee heiress
Abigail Folger, actors Jean
Seberg, and Donald Sutherland.
O'Neil added, "Many in the
Polanski-Tate crowd belonged
to the White Panther Party,
explicit allies of the Black
Panthers."
They also belonged to "The
peace and Freedom Party
of California."
This FBI memorandum, dated
11/29/68 revealed that
the FBI'S counterintelligence
program in the Los Angeles
office said an anonymous letter
is being prepared for Bureau
approval to be sent to a leader
of the Peace and Freedom Party,
PFP--
--in which it is set forth that
the BPP has made statements
in closed meetings that when
the armed rebellion comes,
the whites and the PFP will
be lined up against the wall
with the rest of the whites.
Here's interviewer Joe Rogan
discussing Tom O'Neill's book
Chaos, reviewing at least one
CIA asset in the Manson family,
Reeve Whitson, who surely helped
guide Manson and the family
in their actions
as they attempted
to terrify leftist Hollywood
away from this activism.
In and around the Spahn
Ranch and in around the family
and this one guy, Reeve
Whitson, who was a spook
and unfortunately was dead
by the time I started--
For people who don't
know, spook is CIA.
Yeah.
NARRATOR: O'Neill stated
that the FBI wanted
to scare white leftists
away from supporting
the Panthers in falsely
portraying that even
leftists were in the
Panthers crosshairs.
In less than nine months,
in early August 1969, Manson
family members Tex Watson
and a bunch of girls
killed Sharon Tate, Abigail
Folger and several others
who were in the house.
They stabbed Tate many times
in her eight month pregnant
stomach.
O'Neil particularly
noted the importance
of this matching the FBIs
fake information in its letter
about the white PFP activists.
He said, "Manson's followers
lined up for denizens of liberal
Hollywood in Roman Polanski's
home and cut them to pieces,"
leaving slogans in Tate's blood
to implicate the Black Panthers
such as pig.
That was the same thing
Chaos and COINTELPRO
were trying to do.
They were trying to damage
the youth revolution.
NARRATOR: Another
set of murders,
public pressure and various
individuals in law enforcement
finally had the Manson
family arrested, charged
and convicted in court by 1971.
During the trial, Manson put a
swastika tattoo on his forehead.
He just couldn't help himself.
All the press coverage should
have ended the Manson family
project of freaks, but US
intelligence apparently
wasn't quite done with them.
By 1975, Richard Nixon had
resigned after the Watergate
scandal, and his vice
president, Gerald Ford,
had assumed the presidency.
Oligarch Nelson
Rocky Rockefeller
wormed his way into
the White House
without all the
onerous campaigning,
getting himself picked
as vice president
with his wife Happy in tow.
Only one step away
from the presidency,
Rocky was salivating.
He'd already assisted Eisenhower
in psychological operations
involving Nazi propaganda.
Since his family
had helped cover up
$1 million transfers from
the CIA via the Rockefeller
Foundation for mind
control experiments,
Rocky seemed to itch
for some payback.
On September 5th of 1975, Manson
family member Squeaky Fromme got
right next to President Ford,
took out a gun and pulled
the trigger.
But a security guard said
he lunged for the gun
and got his thumb between the
hammer of the gun and the firing
pin, stopping the assassination.
US intelligence got a
second chance 17 days later
when FBI paid Sarah Jane Moore
took a shot at President Ford,
again, to no avail.
It's not easy to find
good help these days.
[ELECTROCULT CIRCUS,
"OH NO (KEEP IT ALICE)"]
Keep it alive
Ah keep it alive
Back in the 1960s, while the
Manson family was growing,
atop anti-war group the Students
for a Democratic Society,
or SDS, gained thousands more
members each month throughout
the decade.
SDS did increasingly good
educating and mobilizing around
civil rights and anti-war work,
growing from several dozen
at the start to about
100,000 members in 1969.
Columbia University
SDS leader Mark Rudd
had led the first anti-war
college building takeover
at Columbia in 1968, inspiring
many college building takeovers
nationwide.
After the building
takeover, Mark Rudd
called his father to
tell him what happened.
"We took a building,
he told his father.
Well, give it back,
dad responded."
Fathers are so practical.
Northwestern law student
Bernardine Dohrn had risen up
into the SDS
inter-organizational secretary
position by the summer of 1968
due to her great organizing work
through the 1960s.
SDS also elected Mike Klonsky
as the National office leader
that year, putting him and
Dohrn in two of the top three
positions.
Two other SDS activists,
University of Michigan SDS
leaders Bill Ayers
and Diana Oughton
decided to spend a good portion
of that 1968 summer volunteering
at the Chicago office.
These two had
interesting backgrounds,
partly because they both came
from two of America's wealthiest
families.
Some journalists wrote a sad but
Pulitzer Prize winning series
about Diana Oughton,
published in late 1970.
"One of Diana's great
grandfathers founded the Boy
Scouts of America," an
organization that pledged its
duty to God and country.
At least 90,000 boys failed to
show their respect when they
grew up--
--and filed sex abuse
claims, bankrupting
that fine organization
where young boys could
win merit badges for swimming,
camping, first aid and anal sex.
Diana Oughton went from a
Nixon supporting liberal
hating Republican
who ardently defended
her father's ownership of
tenant farms in Alabama
and spent weekends with
the Rockefeller's in 1960
to a radical leftist in 1968.
In graduate school at the
University of Michigan,
she met Bill Ayers, the son
of Commonwealth Edison Company
Chairman and CEO Tom Ayers.
Commonwealth Edison provides
electricity to Chicago
and most of Northern Illinois.
It has reported revenues of $15
billion annually in the 21st
century.
Tom Ayers also served on the
boards of Sears, Zenith defense
contractor General Dynamics,
First National Bank, the Chicago
Cubs and the Tribune
Company, one of the nation's
leading multi-media companies.
Bill Ayers was also a leader
of Michigan SDS and influenced
Oughton to join SDS, as
well as to take psychedelics
in early 1968.
In June of 1968, SDS held
their national convention
in nearby East
Lansing, Michigan.
And Bill Ayers led Diana
Oughton to the convention
and got close with new SDS
national office leaders
Mike Klonsky and
Bernardine Dohrn.
That summer, Ayers and
Oughton moved to Chicago
to do volunteer work
in the national office.
The two had developed
a taste for acid rock
and took LSD, sometimes
with another couple.
Was that other acid taking
couple Klonsky and Dohrn?
The bizarrely divisive behavior
and associations of Bill Ayers,
along with the more
emotionally erratic behavior
of Bernardine Dohrn over the
next 12 months, suggests it was.
The Pulitzer Prize winning
article on Oughton and Ayers
stated that the behind the
scenes leader of the Jesse James
Gang "was a mysterious
31-year-old man named Jim Mellen
who appeared out of nowhere.
No one knew where he
had gone to school
or why he came to the
University of Michigan.
And he was the major
intellectual force
behind the gang.
A rumor began circulating among
his critics that Mellen was
an agent provocateur sent by
the FBI or Central Intelligence
Agency to destroy SDS and the
radical movement in Michigan."
Mellen and Ayers'
Jesse James Gang
held peaceful methods
of reform in contempt
despite never having tried
peaceful, anti-racist or
anti-war activism that other
SDS action-oriented factions had
conducted before
changing strategies.
They urged violent
confrontations,
disrupted SDS meetings, and
made vicious personal attacks
on their opponents,
leading to brawls.
They let it be known that
their opponents were running
the risk of physical beatings.
The Pulitzer Prize winning
journalists said that "Through
psychological warfare, the Jesse
James Gang had split up Michigan
SDS, and the gang captured
the single most important SDS
chapter in Michigan, which
automatically gave them
a powerful voice in the
national organization."
During December
1968, Bill and Diana
both began to emerge as
leaders in the national SDS
at a conference held in Ann
Arbor, Michigan, at that event,
they had Jim Mellen and their 40
members of the Jesse James Gang
with them to help eventually
duplicate their Michigan SDS
achievement on the
national organization.
Activists Abbie Hoffman and
Jerry Rubin's SDS aligned
Yippies group was also
infiltrated and manipulated
by undercover agents
who pushed acid on them.
While Abbie Hoffman was
brilliant and charismatic,
the acid likely led him--
--and Jerry Rubin to lose some
perspective, allowing many spies
to infiltrate their group, such
as FBI paid spy George Demmerle.
Acid Dreams writer Martin Lee
noted how George "Prince Crazy
Demmerle wore weird
costumes, smoked a lot of pot
and was a member of the
YIP steering committee.
He also served as Abbie
Hoffman's bodyguard."
Radical anti-war activist Jane
Alpert knew George demmerle well
as he had enticed her into
a bombing plot and arrest
in the late 1960s.
In her memoir, Alpert said
demmerle founded the Crazies
inside the Yippies.
Demmerle was often seen
wearing a purple cape, as well
as a lavender jeweled shirt
and a Dayglo pink helmet
with two feathered
dusters on top.
More importantly, Acid
Dreams writer Martin Lee
noted how George Demmerle worked
to initiate more activists
into taking acid--
--saying some SDS "leaders
were initially reluctant
to experiment with
psychedelic drugs."
"Mark Rudd, who had been
chairman of the Action Faction
at the Columbia
University chapter of SDS,
declined numerous offers to
turn on with the Crazies."
He did so on the
grounds that it would
interfere with his politics.
Demmerle and the Crazies
chided Rudd and his cohorts
for being straight laced.
But Rudd's crowd was
not to be persuaded.
Finally, the Crazies
put acid in the wine
at a party Rudd's group was
having and convinced them
to keep taking acid.
Apparently, when tripping,
capes, feather dusters
and day-glo can be
very convincing.
[ELECTROCULT CIRCUS, "ANTHILLS"]
Violence awakens the spirit
of repossessed minds
By the early summer of 1969,
suspected CIA agent Jim Mellen
and his close Michigan
SDS associate Bill Ayers
suggested a new
national group be formed
within the SDS organization.
Mellen and Ayers wrote an essay
they called "The weathermen
manifesto."
The statement was 25,000 words.
CIA think-tank writers
sure can be long winded.
Mellen and Ayers then got
a committee of nine others
to sign off on it, including
Karen Ashley, Jeff Jones,
Mark Rudd, Steve
Tappis, Bernardine Dohrn
and John Jacobs,
Jingleheimer Schmidt.
A national SDS convention was
held in June of 1969 in Chicago.
According to top SDS
historian Kirkpatrick Sale,
there was an estimated 80,000
to 100,000 members in the group
in that last 12 months and 350
to 400 chapters nationwide.
It appeared that when the Jim
Mellen and Bill Ayers dominated
Michigan chapter gained
more influence nationally
in that 12 months, along with
the infiltrated, progressive
labor affiliated faction
of SDS, membership
started to decrease for
the first time in 1969.
The June National Convention
started with much press coverage
and fanfare.
Here's some media
interviewing two
of the three top SDS leaders,
Mike Klonsky and Bernardine
Dohrn.
This is in finding out
about the organization.
At SDS, we've always been
quite willing to talk--
Yeah, we'll talk about
socialism anywhere,
in the streets or in the
senate, anywhere, you know.
[LAUGHTER]
NARRATOR: Here, Dohrn appears
to still have a sense of humor,
making fun of a
reporter's question
by checking for communists in
her co-leader Mike Clancy's
jacket.
REPORTER: Is there a communist
faction making a big power
play for SDS--
I don't know.
Is there any
communist back here?
[CHEERING]
I guess there--
NARRATOR: Reports had Bernardine
Dohrn taking acid recreationally
by at least 1969, but more
likely with Bill Ayers
and Diana Oughton in
the summer of 1968.
Dohrn and others in
her Weathermen faction
who were dropping acid appeared
increasingly less emotionally
stable throughout the year.
An overview of 46 existing
LSD studies done in 1968
revealed that during
LSD trips, people
are vulnerable, hyper
suggestible and emotionally
labile.
A surprisingly large
percentage of LSD users
also experience chronic
anxiety, acute panic states
and antisocial
behavior for weeks,
months after their LSD use.
Did Bill Ayers introduce acid
in 1968 for these reasons?
Did he and Jim Mellen, as the
writers of their Weathermen
group manifesto, along
with their associates,
continue to influence Dohrn?
The events of this SDS
convention suggest so.
Evidence later came out
that US intelligence
had many infiltrators among
the hundreds of students
from a different faction,
progressive labor, who
were at the convention.
In May of 1969,
the New York Times,
revealing more than they
would in the new Millennium,
said that the FBI has
undercover agents and informers
inside almost every SDS chapter.
At the 1969 SDS
National Convention
that was closed off
to mainstream media,
arguments erupted
between the two factions
over the first two days.
The Weathermen aligned
faction had a Black Panther
read a purported letter from
Panther National Chairman Bobby
Seale denouncing
progressive labor
unless they followed a true
Marxist-Leninist ideology or SDS
will be judged by the
company they keep.
Progressive labor
attendees started
chanting, smash redbaiting,
smash redbaiting.
The Weathermen chanted, power to
the people, power to the people.
It was a chant war.
Bernardine Dohrn stood as the
guarded queen of the Weathermen
and an affiliated
faction and Fred Gordon
as the king of
progressive labor.
Despite her less
acid damaged partner,
Mike Klonsky,
trying to stop her,
queen Dohrn vehemently
led her faction
to march out of the
huge gymnasium in which
the convention was held.
A little impulsiveness
went a long way
as it split SDS up
into two organizations.
As author Erin Leonard wrote
in Truthout magazine in August
of 1969, at least one
FBI document reported US
intelligence's success in that
"SDS as the mainstay of the New
Left Movement is now seriously
divided, and to this extent,
weakened."
It further added that the
Weathermen "National Office
faction is gradually being
forced into a position
of militant extremism, which
hopefully will isolate it from
other elements of the
libertarian community
and eventuate its complete
discrediting in the eyes
of the American public."
[MUSIC PLAYING] John
Jacob Jingleheimer Schmidt
His name is our name too
When SDS was taken out the
people will always shout
There goes John Jacob
Jingleheimer Schmidt
La-la-la-la-la-la-la-la
John--
The new acid addled
Weatherman did have their fun.
A number of the guys and
women seemed to the orgies
they started having that year.
But even sympathetic historians
such as Kirkpatrick Sale
detailed how the judgment
of Weather leaders
increasingly decreased in
the second half of 1969.
First, this new faction elected
new national SDS leaders.
Surprise, surprise, who
ends up in the new split
leadership of SDS but Jesse
James Gang leader Bill
Ayers and the now acid
addled Mark Rudd with him.
Suspected spy Bill Ayers
as a leader in the largest
anti-war organization
with Bill's ability
to sabotage the group's
anti-war efforts,
it's a wonder if Tom Ayers'
General Dynamics stock
value went up.
Then the Weathermen
reportedly wanted
to spark whites to join together
in revolutionary solidarity
with people of color, organizing
a Chicago protest in October
they first called Bringing
the War Home and later called,
the Days of Rage.
They hoped for at least a few
thousand bat swinging protesters
to March through Chicago
and fight the police.
Around 1968, Bernardine
Dohrn and Mike Klonsky
worked with Illinois Black
Panther Party leader Fred
Hampton, who organized
in Chicago, where
SDS had their national office.
But only Klonsky and
his R-Y-M2 or RYM2
stayed close with Hampton.
Here's Bill Ayers in 1969
announcing the Weathermen's
Chicago protests in solidarity
with the Black Panthers
despite that the Black Panthers
weren't in solidarity with him.
This fall in Chicago, we will
lead massive demonstrations
against the war in support
of the Black Panther Party
and in solidarity with
all political prisoners.
NARRATOR: Here's Fred
Hampton interviewed
by ABC News in early
October of 1969
regarding the Weathermen's
planned Chicago
action and the new Ayers led
SDS versus Mike Klonsky's R-Y-M2
or RYM2 group.
REPORTER: Fred, where does
the Black Panther Party
stand concerning the
Weathermen, the SDS?
We stand way back from
the SDS, and the Weathermen
because we believe that the
Weatherman action is two action.
It's RYM2 and Weatherman.
We think this-- could call
them both national action.
We think that RYM2
is national action
and Weatherman is
national reaction.
Its characteristic
in that its leaders
take people into
situations where
the people can be massacred,
and they call that revolution.
And it's nothing
but child's play.
It's folly.
And it's criminal because
people can be hurt.
We think these people may be
sincere, but they're misguided.
They're muddle heads, and
they're scatterbrains.
NARRATOR: Despite
much organizing,
the days of rage only drew a
couple hundred protesters tops.
They create a multi-sport
affair wearing football helmets
and carrying Louisville Slugger
bats to smash car windows
and store windows before
mostly ending up getting
beaten up by cops and jailed.
Regarding the Chicago
action militant leaders,
a picture of the
Weathermen marching
in the Chicago days of rage
showed Jim Mellen and Bill Ayers
at the front.
Mellen was the other highly
suspected undercover agent.
Kirkpatrick Sale noted that
General Dynamics board chair
billionaire Tom Ayers "generous
allowances in later years,
Bill Ayers averred, were used
to finance the revolution."
All power to the people.
This revolutionary
anti-war message
was brought to you
by General Dynamics.
Dropping their
payload on the people.
While the Weathermen had based
their name on the Bob Dylan
lyric, you don't
need a weatherman
to know which way the wind
blows, critics countered,
you don't need a rectal
thermometer to know
who the assholes are.
The acid erosion
of judgment peaked
at the Weatherman's December
1969 National War Council,
or Wargasm Conference,
when Bernardine Dohrn
gave an ecstatic speech about
the Charles Manson gang.
Dohrn exclaimed, "they
even shoved a fork
in the pregnant
victim's stomach.
Wild."
It was an acid flipped
version of a Me Too speech.
Another fun highlight of that
conference was Rudd saying,
"It must be a really wonderful
feeling to kill a pig,"
and someone screaming out later,
"All white babies are pigs."
Kirkpatrick Sale said
that sometime around 1970,
the Weathermen linked half of
SDS apparently decided to end
the Students for a
Democratic Society,
and the once 100,000 strong
anti-war organization
effectively disbanded
by the end of that year.
Sale also said that some
Weathermen "tried to stop using
all drugs."
And some apologized
for praising Manson,
including Bernardine Dohrn.
The Weathermen also
changed their name
to the Weather Underground
for feminist reasons
and joined other activists who
had started bombing institutions
involved in the Vietnam War and
working against civil rights.
Estimates of student linked
bombings and attempts ranged
from Kirkpatrick Sale's
estimate of roughly one a day
to the government's
division of alcohol,
tobacco and firearms reporting
at least 5,000 bombings
and attempts for about 20
a day in the 1969 to 1970,
September to June school year.
The 1970 version of
Fox News probably
said some teachers were giving
extra credit for bombings.
It should be kept
in mind that this
was in reaction to
America's war in Vietnam
killing over 2 million people,
including several hundred
thousand young Americans.
Bill Stout narrates.
There were warning
calls to the police
who got a janitor
out of the building
just before the explosions.
Across the nation between
January of last year and April
of this year, a total of 4,330
bombings have been reported.
NARRATOR: The
bombings reportedly
had about half a dozen
innocent bystander casualties,
including three Weather
Underground members.
Weathermen Cathy
Wilkerson's father
owned a house in the
Greenwich Village neighborhood
of New York City.
The four story building
got blown to rubble
when one of the bombs the
radicals were assembling
accidentally got detonated.
The explosion also blew
out six floors of windows
across the street
early in the morning.
Actor Dustin Hoffman's wife
and Henry Fonda's ex-wife,
who lived nearby, helped naked
Kathy Wilkerson and Kathy
Boudin get out of the
rubble and into clothes.
Dustin Hoffman can be seen here
saving figures in a painting.
Wilkerson, Boudin
and three others
escaped, while Weather
Underground members Ted Gold,
Terry Robbins and Diana
Oughton were blown up
beyond initial recognition.
Between 1968 and 1971, students
took over many college buildings
with protests at 883 campuses--
--and authorities
suspending classes
on 97 campuses in protest
of the Vietnam War.
The Revolutionary
Youth Movement,
or RYM joined with other groups
in civil disobedience that
closed down Washington D.C. and
led to the largest mass arrest
in American history
at 7,000 1971.
Half a million
protested in Washington,
while another 25,000 blocked
bridges and roads throughout DC.
Between that and the
bombings, activists
helped end the war by 1975.
[MUSIC PLAYING]
Millions of radicalized youth
nationwide and worldwide
posed a dangerous threat
to the powers that be.
The oligarchs and
their CIA spooks
apparently decided it was time
to ramp up the acid distribution
to divert them and hurt their
competency as much as possible.
British police
inspector Dick Lee
investigated the Mellon
Hitchcock family run brotherhood
of eternal love
network in Europe.
He found them behind over
100 million doses of LSD
manufactured and sold
in Britain alone.
Detective Lee also
said Ronald Stark was
a senior brotherhood figure.
As writer Martin Lee
explained, an Italian judge
found that Ron Stark
worked for the CIA.
Stark was the biggest
source of underground acid
at one time in the world.
And he ends up being released
from jail in Italy after
a certain point-- under the
most strange circumstances where
a judge says that Ronald
Stark, the evidence shows,
has been an agent of the US
secret services from the 1960s
on.
Therefore, we cannot
keep him in jail.

Back in 1969, musicians such as
John Lennon and Rolling Stones'
guitarist Keith
Richards had not only
been inadvertently
promoting acid,
they had also begun
using heroin and thus,
popularizing that drug, too.
In the fall of
2018, a journalist
who was friends with
John Lennon and Yoko Ono
came out with a
biography where he said,
Yoko introduced John to heroin.
Like suspected undercover agent
Bill Ayers' extremely wealthy
father, Yoko Ono's parents
were conservative aristocrats.
She attended Japan's
most exclusive schools.
The question
remains, was Yoko Ono
part of a Western
intelligence plan
to manipulate John
Lennon to take heroin
for promoting it to the
young anti-war generation?
[ELECTROCULT CIRCUS, "T.M.D."]
Rolling Stone
publisher Jann Wenner
interviewed John Lennon
about LSD trips hurting him,
leading to his stopping
the use of it by 1967.
JOHN LENNON: Oh, yeah.
Had many.
Jesus Christ.
You know, I stopped taking
it because of that, you know.
I mean, I just--
YOKO ONO: Couldn't stand--
JOHN LENNON: Couldn't stand it.
And I destroyed
myself, you know.
And I was slowly pulling myself
together after Maharishi,
you know.
Bit by bit over a
two year period.
And I didn't believe I
could do anything, you know.
NARRATOR: Lennon said that his
former publicist from 1964,
Derek Taylor, had come back to
be his publicist again from 1968
to 1970.
Taylor convinced
Lennon to trip again.
JOHN LENNON: And Derek
tripped me out at his house
after he'd got back from LA.
He said, it's all-- you know.
And he sort of said,
you're all right.
NARRATOR: So what else is
known about Derek Taylor?
This New York
Times obituary said
that besides being
the Beatles' press
spokesman for
several years, Taylor
was also the publicist for
David van Cortland Crosby's
band, the Byrds, who got
Lennon tripping his second time
in August of 1965.
Furthermore, Taylor was the
publicist for the Beach Boys,
including Dennis Wilson, who
housed the Manson CIA front
family for six months.
And finally, Taylor further
worked as the publicist
for the Mamas--
--and the Papas with Papa John
Phillips, the former Naval
officer turned daughter raping,
Laurel Canyon sex party drug
pusher for the stars.
In line with the drug pushing
musicians he represented,
Derek Taylor promoted
acid in Los Angeles
and nationally through a top LA
music newspaper, the KRLA Beat
from 1965 to 1968.
Under Taylor, that nationally
influential newspaper
and its readers shifted
toward the psychedelic.
And finally, Lennon had his
dutiful partner, Yoko Ono,
come in and confirm that he
should be tripping again.
JOHN LENNON: And the next
week, I went down with Yoko,
and we tripped out again.
And she filled me completely
to realize that I was me,
and it's all right, you know?
NARRATOR: So Yoko Ono helped
Derek Taylor influence Lennon
to take acid again after
his two year hiatus out
of fear of losing his mind.
Having Lennon trip again
also likely helped Yoko
when she introduced
him to heroin.
This all fits the pattern
of known undercover agents,
such as Ron Stark
and Timothy Leary,
as well as suspected undercover
agents such as Weatherman Bill
Ayers and Jim Melen.
JOHN LENNON: Yeah, yeah.
And throwing up, I just threw
up for hours till I went on.
I needed--
JANN WENNER: Would you
still be that nervous
if you're in public?
JOHN LENNON: Always that
nervous, you know, but I don't
think I'll do much appearing.
It's not worth the
strain, you know.
I don't want to perform
too much for people.
NARRATOR: Lennon also
saw his judgment hurt
and that he considered
trepanning or drilling
a hole in his skull to
purportedly expand his mind.
Lennon likely got the
idea from Amanda Fielding,
the Countess of
[INAUDIBLE] in 1965,
someone spiked the 22-year-old
Fielding's coffee with a massive
dose of LSD, which
nearly broke her.
By 27 in 1970, Countess
Fielding had fried her brain so
thoroughly that she
filmed herself drilling
a hole in her skull,
a procedure called
trepanning or trepanation.
Skull driller Fielding
then ran for parliament
with the slogan,
trepanation for the nation.
Catchy.
As if brain damage
is contagious.
Here's comedian
Bill Burr commenting
on what he thought Yoko Ono
added to one of John Lennon's
live musical performances with
rock and roll pioneer Chuck
Berry.
Burr first mimicked Yoko
Ono's bizarre screeching chant
in the middle of this
musical performance
on the Mike Douglas show.
Burr further commented on Chuck
Berry's wide eyed reaction
to Ono's vocal addition
to the performance.
BILL BURR: So John
Lennon, Chuck Berry.
Two of the greats of
all time, harmonizing,
singing this hit from the 1950s.
That's what this moment's about.
And Yoko, in the
middle of it can't
handle that she's not
getting any shine.
She takes the fucking
microphone out of the stand,
starts playing the Bongo.
And as they're singing, you
know, go, go, Johnny, go,
whatever, she picks up the
mic, and I swear to God goes,
ieeaayy.
Some fucking crazy shit.
And you see Chuck Berry's
eyes fucking open as wide
as they are.
And it's that fucking look.
[MUSIC PLAYING] Spies told
Yoko to marry that man
So they could push drugs
through the leader of the band
They knew John and
drugs would be in lights
Saying Johnny B. bad tonight
Go, go, Johnny, go, go
Johnny B. bad
NARRATOR: After losing control
over the Golden Triangle
of heroin with the end
of the Vietnam War,
the CIA found a new opium haven,
the Golden Crescent of heroin
around Iran, Pakistan
and Afghanistan.
The CIA funded the anti-Soviet
mujahideen Muslim Brotherhood
there, and they started
trafficking out heroin
from 1979 onwards.
Muslim Brotherhood
apparently means
fake Muslim mercenaries
in spook speak.
Reporters Elizabeth
Gould and Paul Fitzgerald
were experts on Afghanistan
for PBS and CBS News.
Paul Jay of the
Real News Network
talked with these reporters
about American policies
to manipulate the Soviet union,
as well as US intelligence
work with Pakistan intelligence
on cross border trafficking
into Afghanistan.
The US policy is to induce
the Soviets into Afghanistan
or at least facilitate it.
They certainly succeed.
The whole Pakistan
society starts
to be transformed by these
billions of dollars going--
arms going this way and
drugs coming this way back
into Pakistan.
Eventually, the Russians leave.
Tell us what happens next.
And in fact, Gulbuddin
Hekmatyar and Ahmed Shah Massoud
were two of the main
people who caused
the major destruction in Kabul.
But this was all part of the
buildup that eventually was
presented by 1994 to '96
as an Afghan movement--
--but really was very much part
of the ideological political
process that the Pakistani
ISI military had--
Together with the Saudis,
I think should be added.
ELIZABETH GOULD: Oh, abso--
PATRICK FITZGERALD: Together
with the Saudis but also
the United States was
very much behind it.
NARRATOR: With the supply of
heroin steadily increasing from
the Afghanistan area throughout
the 1980s and into the early
1990s, the CIA needed to figure
out how to increase the demand.
They appeared to psychologically
profile many musicians
and saw one rising
star who fit the bill.
Kurt Cobain.
Cobain, who ended up
being dubbed the John
Lennon of his generation, had
a chronic, painful stomach
problem.
He had already tried
many medicines that
didn't work for him
before trying heroin,
though just a few
times before he
met Courtney Love according
to Cobain's old friend
Alice Wheeler.
Wheeler went on to say, Courtney
Love "definitely used heroin
as a lure to control him.
She's very
sophisticated that way.
It was in her best interest
for Kurt to form a habit."
It was also in the
CIAs best interest
to get Kurt Cobain to
inadvertently promote heroin,
as the CIA appeared
to do in manipulating
John Lennon to
take acid and then
heroin with Yoko Ono's help.
This brings up the
question, was Courtney Love
the Yoko Ono of her generation?
What was Courtney
Love's history that
suggests her direct
or indirect CIA work?
Courtney Love's
mother, Linda Carroll,
reported being an
abused, adopted daughter
of extremely wealthy parents.
Courtney Love's biological
dad, Hank Harrison,
said that Carroll--
--and her parents
used their wealth
to wrest sole control
over their daughter.
Harrison and biographers
confirm that Love ended up
in a juvenile detention
facility for some years
up to the age of 13.
After Harrison got her
out, he found that she
had developed a drug addiction.
Award winning
journalist Melissa Rossi
documented how
Harrison also said
Courtney Love was prostituting
herself as a teenager.
For example, when Courtney
stayed with Harrison in Dublin
when she was 17 years old, Proud
dad "Hank said she spent much
of her time in Dublin
hooking on the street."
Rossi also reprinted
the contents
of a letter from
Courtney to a boyfriend
when she was about 20
years old where Courtney
said she prostituted herself
apparently to earn money
to get back to the
boyfriend while working
in a strip club in Taiwan.
How romantic.
Maybe that's a prostitute's
version of a Dear John letter.
This was Courtney's
second time working
as a stripper in
an Asian country
as Rossi noted how
Courtney had previously
worked at strip clubs for
the Japanese mafia at about
15 years old.
Several biographies
have mentioned this.
Rossi said that
Courtney told friends
she had been part of
the white slave trade
while stripping in Japan.
Harrison said Courtney
then visited him
while he was doing research
in Dublin, Ireland,
when she had just turned 17.
There, she also met a new friend
of Harrison's, Steven O'Leary.
In a PDF version of Hank
Harrison's book, Love Kills,
which he offered for free before
his book came out in a paperback
format, Harrison said
that O'Leary later
admitted to being a CIA
agent in a letter he wrote
to Harrison on his deathbed.
In the letter, O'Leary stated
that, "I wasn't a spy per se,
but I had to report to the
American embassy in Dublin
by mail or telephone
once each week."
Harrison had said O'Leary
died in the location and date
verified in this obituary.
Harrison further said that Steve
O'Leary and his brother Kevin
took Courtney to
Liverpool, England.
Courtney Love
biographer Melissa Rossi
noted that Love carried
a thousand hits of acid
to Liverpool.
Love distributed the acid
at various music scenes.
This duplicated MK-Ultra
operations of the 1960s.
Love repeated these behaviors
in Portland, Oregon, Los Angeles
and other music scenes.
INTERVIEWER: OK.
And He was openly told you
that he worked for the CIA?
HANK HARRISON: Later-- he
didn't, at that time, no,
but it was obvious.
But no, at the time,
he did not verbally
tell me that because he was
under oath not to tell me,
of course.
But later on, after he
retired, he told me.
He wrote me a letter,
and I have a letter.
INTERVIEWER: Kevin Leary.
HANK HARRISON: Yes.
INTERVIEWER: When you
mentioned Kevin Leary,
you said, oh, he was
high up in the CIA.
What was his duties in the CIA?
HANK HARRISON: Well, he had
superiority over his brother.
He was-- my daughter came along.
Steve took care of her
for me and got her safely
to London where she was then--
wound up in
Liverpool hanging out
with Adam Ant and
Echo & the Bunnymen.
NARRATOR: Writers Max
Wallace and Ian Halperin
said Courtney Love would claim
that Teardrop Explodes frontman
Julian Cope took her
virginity, but she
has made similar claims about
at least three other rock stars.
The question remains, did
Courtney Love's relationship
with the CIA continue up to the
death of Kurt Cobain and beyond?
It can't be certain that
this is the same Kevin
O'Leary from early in her
life, but Hank Harrison
said he thinks it is.
PAPARAZZI: Guys,
how are you doing?
PAPARAZZI: How are you doing?
PAPARAZZI: --guys dating?
PAPARAZZI: Hey, you
make a great couple.
Courtney--
PAPARAZZI: Courtney,
what did you think
of Kurt Cobain's documentary?
[MUSIC PLAYING] With Courtney
here, it's more dangerous
Now she's killed me
Entertain us
Are we stupid and contagious?
The CIA whores now
Entertain us
Yeah
NARRATOR: The
O'Learys apparently
weren't the only
spies with which
Courtney Love was involved.
Around 2005, the late infamous
teen sex trafficking mogul
Jeffrey Epstein had a
former house manager
named Alfredo Rodriguez.
After Epstein's
arrest, Rodriguez
stole Epstein's black
book from his home
and tried to sell it to one
of the victims law firms
before the firm
reported it to the FBI.
This Rodriguez guy
just has no loyalty.
Nick Bryant, who published
Jeffrey Epstein's black book
in 2005, said Rodriguez circled
key people as potential material
witnesses to crimes
against underage girls.
These included Donald Trump,
Alan Dershowitz, former Israeli
Prime Minister Ehud Barak--
--and as one of the only
famous females, Courtney Love,
among 46 other names circled.
These were 50 circled
names out of hundreds
of names of the world's most
powerful and influential people
that Epstein had
contact information
on in his black book.
In August of 2019, Vicky
Ward, a veteran reporter
for CNN and Vanity Fair,
printed important disclosures
from President Trump's labor
secretary, Alexander Acosta.
The Trump administration
vetted Acosta for his position
when he worked as a US attorney.
Acosta was asked about his
handling of the Epstein case
In Miami in 2007.
Acosta had infamously cut
Epstein a non-prosecution plea
deal that put a hard stop to a
separate federal investigation
for alleged sex crimes with
minors and trafficking.
Alexander Acosta
said he made the deal
because he had been told
to back off, that Epstein
was above his pay grade.
"I was told Epstein belonged
to intelligence and to leave it
alone," he told his interviewers
in the Trump transition who
evidently thought that was a
sufficient answer and went ahead
and hired Acosta.
Apparently among the world's
imperialist minded countries
intelligence agencies,
it's a family affair.
In a recent interview,
former senior executive
for Israel's directorate of
military intelligence Ari
Ben-Menashe stated that he met
Jeffrey Epstein and Ghislaine
Maxwell in the 1980s.
Ben-Menashe said that they
worked for Israel intelligence
as part of a
blackmailing operation.
It was good of Jeffrey Epstein
to document his connections
so well.
It's too bad that most
of the powerful people
able to do something
with that information
were part of those connections.
A mass of accumulated evidence
supports Courtney Love's links
to Kurt Cobain's death, such
as alcoholic Eldon Hoke's claim
of her offering him $50,000 to
kill her husband for filmmaker
Nick Broomfield.
MAN: You did some deal
with Courtney, right?
Yeah.
She offered me $50,000
to whack Kurt Cobain.
MAN: Yeah.
I didn't know quite
what to think.
El Duce had passed
a polygraph test.
NARRATOR: In May
of 2021, The FBI
declassified 10 pages of never
before seen documents relating
to Kurt Cobain's death.
These included
several letters asking
for a homicide investigation.
The FBI gave the same
response to each.
"In order for the FBI to
initiate an investigation of any
complaint we receive,
specific facts must be present
to indicate that a violation
of federal law within
our investigative
jurisdiction has occurred."
The US Attorney's bulletin
states, "Interstate travel
merely triggers
federal jurisdiction.
A defendant need not intend
to travel across state lines
to commit murder for hire.
Instead, a defendant need only
to intend to commit a murder
for hire and in doing so,
travel across state lines."
One of the FBI file
letters from 2003
mentions the Nick Broomfield
film Kurt & Courtney.
As just seen, that film
presented Eldon Hoke
stating that Courtney Love
traveled from Seattle,
Washington to Los
Angeles, California,
conspiring to have
Cobain murdered.
This, along with a mass
of other known evidence--
--such as Cobain
divorcing Love, supports
that the FBI joined the police
in at least purposely ignoring
an investigation
of Courtney Love.
Courtney Loves connection to us.
Intelligence echoes the
connections of John Lennon's
killers to US intelligence.
British lawyer
Fenton Bresler, who
also worked as a
legal correspondent
for England's national
newspaper, the Daily Mail.
Bresler may have just
wanted to get away
from trial law due to
the government making
their barristers wear
these crazy wigs.
In 1989, Fenton Bresler
published his seven year
investigation of Lennon's murder
titled, Who Killed John Lennon?
Bresler concluded that the
CIA used MK-Ultra techniques
involving psycho hypnotic
drugs and hypnosis
to have Chapman murder Lennon.
Veteran British music
writer Phil Strongman
came to the same
conclusions as Bresler.
Strongman only added information
on Lennon's Dakota apartment
building's doorman, whose full
name was Jos Joaquin Sanjens
Perdomo.
Strongman said Perdomo was
listed as a Cuban exile who
was involved in the
Bay of Pigs Invasion
before becoming a CIA hitman.
Bresler and Strongman's
copious amounts of evidence
also exposed CIA
training programs
for local police departments.
They further uncovered that
an Atlanta police officer
trained Chapman in
shooting and provided him
with the more damaging
hollow point bullets
with which Chapman
killed Lennon.
And we know the FBI had
a 300 page file on Lennon.
Much of it remains classified
for national security reasons.
The doorman at the
Dakota that night
was Jos Perdomo, a
veteran of the CIAs botched
Bay of Pigs Invasion, a
professional hitman who
worked closely with convicted
Watergate burglar Frank
Sturgis on the CIAs payroll.
NARRATOR: In 2022, The Onion
provided surprisingly tasteless
satire on the subject.
It announced, in its
American voices section,
that Mark David
Chapman, who is serving
a 20 year to life
sentence for fatally
shooting John Lennon in 1980--
--has been denied parole
for the 12th time,
having sought parole every two
years since 2000 when he was
first eligible.
"What do you think?"
Boutique Clothier
Maria Alpas said.
"Let him out.
What's the worst he
could do, shoot Ringo?
Freelance botanist
Simon Church said,
"Maybe this will teach him to
kill someone less famous next
time."
Weaving instructor
Roy Trinkle said,
"Come on, it was the 1980s.
Everyone was
murdering back then."

Over things we can't change--
The other top music
icon of the 1990s,
rap and film star Tupac Shakur,
had worked with his extended
Black Panther family to decrease
drug dealing nationwide.
Tupac's stepfather,
Mutulu Shakur,
had pioneered the
use of acupuncture
in guiding thousands of
New York City addicts
into recovery at the clinic
he started, Lincoln Detox.
Tupac's mother, Afeni Shakur,
seen here speaking at a rally,
led the Harlem Black
Panthers at one time.
At the age of 18, Tupac was
elected national chairman
of the New African Panthers.
The New African Panthers tried
to replicate the Black Panthers
and was active in eight cities.
After Tupac broke
into music and film,
he became instrumental
in his work
with his Black Panther
extended family
In influencing the
national Bloods and Crips
gangs to call peace
truces, turn on to activism
and stop dealing drugs.
Tupac's mentor and manager,
Watani Tyehimba seen here
wheeling Tupac
into a courthouse,
confirmed that
Tupac only pretended
to be a gangsta in
order to appeal to gangs
and politicize them as part
of his thug life movement.
Tupac had developed
this code of thug life
with his stepfather Mutulu.
Others close to Tupac tell what
they know in the show, Death Row
Chronicles.
The riots led him to his
next evolution as a leader.
And he realized that he had a
responsibility to unite people.
He would play an active role in
bringing the Crips and Bloods
together for discussions
that ultimately
led to a significant
reduction in the hostility.
MAN: And so thug life was an
extension of the Black Panther
10 point platform
as a code of how
people were supposed to behave.
NARRATOR: President
Bush and US intelligence
responded to this
enthusiastically,
assigning a 100 agent, strong
FBI task force in investigating
the Crips and Bloods.
Then police framed and harassed
gang peace truce leaders.
Regarding Tupac, Oakland Police
stopped Tupac for jaywalking,
choked him unconscious
and pounded his head
against the curb.
Then purportedly off
duty Atlanta Police
used a gun stolen from
an evidence locker
with which to shoot at Tupac.
And finally, police detective
whistleblower Russell Poole
stated that the
Death Row Records
label, which Tupac last worked
for, were trafficking drugs.
Filmmaker Nick Broomfield
quoted detective Poole
in his film Biggie
& Tupac, stating
that police working for Death
Row were behind Tupac's murder.
REPORTER: Ex-detective
Poole resigned
after 18 years on
the force when he
was prevented from investigating
fellow police officers whom
he believed to be involved
in the murders of Biggie
Smalls and Tupac Shakur.
Because it was no secret
that Death Row Records
was involved in
drug trafficking.
NARRATOR: Some years after
Detective Russell Poole came out
with this information, disgraced
police officer Greg Kading
was brought out of a
forced early retirement
after getting caught lying
in court to provide cover up
disinformation on this case.
In a A&E's documentary series,
Who Killed Tupac?, Civil rights
attorney Benjamin Crump
interviewed many people involved
in Tupac's life and death.
He interviewed
detective Greg Kading,
who had said that he talked
with a Crip gang member named
Keefe D who was awaiting trial.
Keefe D was facing decades
in prison for major drug
dealing charges.
Kading said that he was
able to have Keefe D say
that he and his nephew,
Orlando Anderson,
killed Tupac in exchange for
leniency in his drug case.
What was the deal that
was offered to Keefe D when
he made these confessions?
Anything that he says, any
self-incriminating statements
can't be used against him.
In exchange, he
would get leniency
on the drug charges
that were pending.
How much leniency did he get?
He was never prosecuted.
Here's Duane Keith
Keefe D Davis displaying
the consistency of his story as
Detective Kading's top witness.
Some Death Row employees had led
Tupac into a scuffle with Keefe
D's nephew, Orlando Anderson, in
a Las Vegas hotel at about 9:00
PM after a Mike Tyson fight
in the MGM Grand Hotel in Las
Vegas.
Keefe D said this led Anderson
to drive with him in a car where
Keefe D gave Anderson the gun
with which he murdered Tupac.
INTERVIEWER: And if I'm
not mistaken, Orlando,
he hurt his shoulder, right?
NARRATOR: Now it
all makes sense.
After scuffle at 9:00 PM,
Orlando went to the hospital
emergency room on his own
and had his right arm put
in a sling.
He then came out of the hospital
and spontaneously found exactly
where Tupac was and carried
out his murder by 11:00 PM.
Here's Chris Rock's
explanation of why he thinks
the government hates rap.
So Tupac was gunned down
on the Las Vegas strip
after a Mike Tyson fight.
Now, how many witnesses do you
need to see some shit before you
arrest somebody?
Shit.
[APPLAUSE]
More people saw Tupac get
shot than the last episode
of Seinfeld.
[LAUGHTER]
NARRATOR: Filmmaker
Nick Broomfield
made an updated version
of his Biggie & Tupac
film 20 years later,
titled Last Man Standing.
In that film, Greg Kading said
that David Mack and Rafael
Perez, notorious for
trafficking drugs
and killing gang members as
part of the infamous Los Angeles
Rampart scandal, never
worked for Death Row Records.
David Mack, the
LAPD officer, never,
ever worked or was
affiliated and associated
with Death Row Records at all.
Neither was Rafael Perez.
Hi, there.
Morning.
Very good of you to see us.
PRESENTER: What makes Kading's
comments about Mack and Perez
look especially weak is that
even police chief Bernard
Parks himself said they
worked for Death Row.
We know that David Mack and
Rafael Perez both work security
in this rap culture
as it relates
to some of these artists.
But we've had--
INTERVIEWER: --death row?
Death row records--
NARRATOR: Greg Kading and the
powerful people behind him
must have regretted not getting
to offer Chief Parks anything
big before this
interview for Parks
to give a different
response here.
Award winning Las Vegas Sun
crime reporter Cathy Scott,
who wrote two books
discussing Tupac's murder,
said that "It had been widely
publicized that Tupac was under
surveillance by the FBI at the
time of his fatal shooting"
in Las Vegas in 1996.
Tupac's uncle, Jamal Joseph,
a former Harlem Black Panther
with Tupac's mom,
became chairman
of the Columbia University
Film Department decades
after Tupac's death.
Joseph explained
to all hip hop TV
how more evidence of
police involvement
in the murderous
targeting of Tupac
led to evidence of a latter day
FBI counterintelligence program
targeting of Tupac.
We see that some
of these things
were orchestrated and
organized by the police,
and if you keep tracing that
DNA and those fingerprints,
it will lead to
the FBI targeted by
that same counterintelligence,
COINTELPRO kind of program.

Never stopped the transfusions
Fake institutions who--
NARRATOR: Based on
the CIAs own reports,
researchers believe the
oligarchs have continued
using their most studied
MK-Ultra drug, LSD,
into the present,
either overseas
or in private organizations.
Furthermore, the CIA front
group, the Human Ecology Fund,
appeared to become
privatized and outsourced
to groups such as
the Multidisciplinary
Association for Psychedelic
Studies, or MAPS.
MAPS' founding in 1986
during the Reagan Bush
presidential administration
seems no coincidence.
That year, former CIA director
turned Vice President George
Bush was involved in the
CIAs Iran Contra cocaine
trafficking operations,
as documented
by a senate subcommittee.
It became an
international scandal
involving agents of the Central
Intelligence Agency supporting
the Contras, funded through
cocaine trafficking,
trying to overthrow the
socialist Sandinista government
in Nicaragua.
Once Bush reached the
presidency in 1989,
he appointed Dr. David Kessler
as Food and Drug Administration
commissioner.
Kessler approved university
testing of psychedelics
in 1990, just after his
approval by the US Senate.
MAPS founder Rick Doblin said
FDA doctors helped guide him,
including Dr. Curtis Wright.
Investigative journalists later
called FDA director Dr. Kessler
and Dr. Wright top culprits
in the OxyContin scandal.
These journalists called it
the greatest medical disaster
in US history.
The opioid epidemic that has
fueled so many drug overdose
deaths, they now top all the
nation's deaths in world wars.
The FDA approved OxyContin and
minimized its addictiveness.
Dr. Wright suggested
the FDA should
limit competitive production
from other companies.
Two years later, he began
working for the drugmaker Purdue
Pharma.
Dr. Curtis Wright's
problem was that his mind
and ethical compass were
eternally focused on space.
In first approving psychedelic
research for Dick Doblin's MAPS
organization, Wright said he
and his colleague believed,
"If we can put a man on the
moon, we could study any drug."
In a since removed interview
with editor R. U. Sirius,
Doblin described Dr.
Wright as a Trekkie
who had programmed his computer
to make all sorts of Star Trek
sounds.
Wright was eternally in space.
MAN: The final frontier.
NARRATOR: This
was the same place
Timothy Leary had his ashes
launched after first having
planned to cryogenically have
his head severed and brain
frozen.
It's a familiar trade off most
people debate for themselves,
freeze the brain or send
our ashes into outer space.
In 2001, Drug
Enforcement Agency, DEA,
agents arrested 55-year-old
William Leonard Pickard,
deputy director of UCLA's
Drug Policy Research program
for running one of the nation's
largest LSD laboratories.
They arrested him at
the laboratory site,
a decommissioned
missile base owned
by Gordon Todd Skinner,
who doesn't own a missile
base these days.
DEA agents found enough
raw materials there
to make 16 million hits of LSD.
Missile base owner
Skinner had previously
done work for the
government on a drug bust.
The DEA didn't bring any
charges against Skinner,
and it's none of
your business why.
The Bureau of Narcotics
Enforcement, BNE,
said Pickard had previously
worked with the CIA spook Ron
Stark in the Brotherhood of
Eternal Love's LSD Laboratory.
Pickard had taken courses with--
--and remained very close
with Alexander Sasha Shulgin,
who had been in the Navy and was
working for Dow Chemicals, maker
of Agent Orange and napalm.
Shulgin and Dow
synthesized MDMA as well as
super strong psychedelic
STP for the CIA.
William Pickard's
other close associates
included UCLA and Harvard
professors Marc Kleiman and John
Halpern and assistant secretary
of state, Rob Gelbard.
The authorities do have
a sense of humor, though.
While Pickard worked
at UCLA, his main focus
was the Future and Emerging
Drugs Study or FEDS.
For those interested, William
Pickard's defense website
says he now practices
meditation while in prison
and sends his thoughts
to world peace.
That is basketball
player meta world peace.
Don't write him, though,
as he was released
from jail in July 2020.
A federal informant said Pickard
sent $97,000 in LSD profits
to Heffter Research Institute,
where Professor John Halpern is
a consultant.
Shulgin is an advisor.
They have a similar mission
as the Multidisciplinary
Association of
Psychedelic Studies.
Heffter and MAPS held
conferences together,
and they both got
donations from billionaires
such as Laurence Rockefeller.
It should be remembered
that the same billionaire
family, the Rockefellers,
had previously
helped fund some of the MK-Ultra
Human Ecology Fund projects.
Maybe they just wanted to expand
the consciousness of the Manson
family and countless others.
Countess Amanda skull driller
Fielding's organization,
the Beckley Foundation,
collaborated
with Heffter and MAPS
on several conferences.
Many of these conferences were
also co-sponsored by a group
called the Council on
Spiritual Practices
because it takes a serious leap
of faith to believe this shit.
The council's spiritual
practice often
combines hallucinogenic
substances
with the mystical
and the sacred.
These are two words
with Latin roots,
which mean little to nothing.
Countess skull driller
Fielding wasn't alone
with her head drilling.
She helped her
ex-husband, Joey Mellen,
drill a hole in his
skull, and he wrote a book
about it titled, Bore Hole.
While the book was
idiotic, it wasn't boring.
Here's a video with
Amanda Fielding
and Joey Mellen displaying how
sharp the skull hole made him.
I was trepanned in March
1995 in a hospital in Cairo.
I might have considered
a trepanning myself,
but Amanda was quite keen to
try and get it done medically.
NARRATOR: By 2019, MAPS policy
director Natalie Ginsberg
focused her work
on how psychedelics
could bring world peace.
She worked on that
peace building study
with London's imperial college,
the college that teaches
imperialism at home and abroad.
Amanda Fielding's
Beckley Foundation
had also formed a
research program
with the Imperial College.
The Guardian newspaper wrote
about the Beckley and Imperial
College work that year with
their interview of Fielding,
titled after her most
technically scientific quote,
"Acid can get deep down and
reset the brain like shaking up
a snow globe."
About the pet pigeon on her
shoulder from a 1971 photo,
Fielding told The
Guardian he's the reason
I know telepathy exists.
These three top psychedelic
institute's MAPS,
Heffter and Beckley,
spend vast amounts
of billionaire donors'
Rockefeller, Pritzker--
--and Musk money on
studies at top universities
around the world to
promote psychedelics.
They claimed that
psychedelics did everything
from curing addictions,
mood disorders, headaches,
inflammation to
promoting creativity,
world peace, and a truly
cosmic consciousness.
[ELECTROCULT CIRCUS, "T.M.D."]
And I'll love the only things
you've got to say
Some people may say that
psychedelic therapy is better
than the cornucopia
of psychiatric drugs
regularly recommended for
patients by psychiatrists
these days.
Others say try the least
invasive new counseling
techniques first, such as
Eye Movment Desensitization
and Reprocessing, or EMDR.
Columbia University, seen here
as getting top secret funding
under CIA MK-Ultra
subproject 130 1960,
started promoting psychedelic
therapy training over
60 years later in 2022.
Columbia University social
work's new psychedelic therapy
training program
presented many videos
to their graduate
community, such as this one.
Of course, a MAPS trainer
works at the Columbia program
and is presenting.
Here's a presenter in Columbia's
psychedelic training video.
Brooke Stott, a therapist
who goes by she/her
and is focusing on shame.
Stott was also a founding
project manager for trans health
for transgender folks.
Stott further completed the MAPS
MDMA assisted therapy training
despite that it's not legal yet.
Two more of the four
presenters for this training
identified as LGBTQ.
Did MAPS and Columbia purposely
hire so many from this community
to help deflect attacks on their
work promoting harmful drugs?
MAPS and Columbia
purport to believe
that the benefits of MDMA,
better known as ecstasy
or Molly, outweigh the risks.
This comes despite that
a metadata study derived
from 26 studies of 600 ecstasy
users cited in Science Daily
found that taking the
drug even just once
may cause significant short
and long-term memory loss.
Brooke Stott says
here, train now
for psilocybin or
psychedelic mushrooms
and MDMA assisted therapy as her
program expects its availability
in the coming years.
These therapies are not yet
available in the US outside
of a research setting.
We're bringing you
this content with
the anticipated
rescheduling of MDMA
and psilocybin in
the coming years.
NARRATOR: Don't you dare
shame her and Columbia
for promoting something
that's dangerous and illegal.
With this mass promotion of
former MK-Ultra projects,
it may help to revisit a few
more of the people involved
in these past psychedelic
research programs to see how
benevolent--
--or malevolent the current
psychedelic programs may be.
Besides the Manson family,
two other good examples
come to mind, and
the second example
deserves an in-depth
examination.
As previously noted,
Harvard's MK-Ultra money
had funded Professor
Richard Alpert
before he jumped out a second
floor window while tripping
and broke his arm.
Harvard's MK-Ultra
project money also
paid one of their
students, Ted Kaczynski.
a.k.a.
the Unabomber, to take LSD
and experiments at Harvard.
A much more hidden story
gained more attention in 2017
involving an infamous Baltimore
priest named Father Joseph
Maskell, who was made known
to the world in Netflix's Emmy
nominated documentary
series The Keepers.
In Baltimore, Johns Hopkins
University trained father Joseph
Maskell in counseling
in the early 1970s.
At this time,
Hopkins, like Harvard,
had also already received
funding from the CIAs project
MK-Ultra listed in CIA
MK-Ultra documents transcribed
in this book as
MK-Ultra subproject 87.
Psychiatrist Colin Ross printed
this information in his book,
The CIA Doctors, after reviewing
the 10,000 CIA MK-Ultra
documents released, such as
this one in the appendix.
Johns Hopkins had a long
history with MK-Ultra
in that their psychiatry
department chair, Dr. John C.
Whitehorn, received
MK-Ultra funding,
and then after
retiring from Hopkins,
Whitehorn became director
of the Human Ecology
Fund, the MK-Ultra
funding front group.
This article says that Johns
Hopkins psychiatry department
also joined with Spring
Grove Mental Hospital
in conducting extremely
precise, cutting
edge research such
as lobotomies,
which cut out people's
frontal lobes with a scalpel.
Here's Hopkins psychiatry
Director Emeritus John Clare
Whitehorn discussing
talking to patients.
Looking back at a quarter
of a century over my work
at the Hopkins, it seems
necessary to point out
what I was trying to do.
NARRATOR: It's uncertain if
Hopkins had given Whitehorn
a lobotomy before
making this video.
Besides the documentary
series, The Keepers,
covering father Joseph
Maskell, it also
highlighted an Archbishop Keough
Catholic Girls High School
English teacher,
Sister Cathy Cesnik.
The documentary
stated that many girls
started confiding to their
beloved teacher, sister Cathy,
that school chaplain, Father
Joseph Maskell, was raping them
and having others rape
them in his office.
The keepers followed Sister
Cathy's former students
Gemma Hoskins and Abbie Schaub
as they spent many years
investigating the murder of
their beloved high school
teacher in 1970.
With The Keeper's popularity
and Emmy award nomination,
it appeared to spur the Maryland
attorney general to investigate
the Archdiocese of Baltimore
and to finally come out
with a 456 page redacted
report on decades
of sexual and physical
abuse by priests
and other employees
of the Catholic Church
in April of 2023.
Here is Maryland's
Archbishop William E.
Lori in his work clothes.
No, this is not a
Halloween costume.
The attorney general's report
discusses the judicial system
and press actually aiding
the church in cover up.
Even in some of the rare
instances when sexual abuse was
prosecuted, the judicial
system and the press
colluded with the church
to avoid transparency
and accountability.
A closer look at revelations
about Archbishop Keough High
School's Father Joseph
Maskell presents more evidence
as to why the church
had so much power
over the media, the police,
prosecutors, the FBI
and the judicial system.
Evidence supports that
father Joseph Maskell
and an unknown number
of other priests
were working with the
CIAs project, MK-Ultra.
Besides father Joseph Maskell
being trained in counseling from
the Johns Hopkins who were
working with the CIAs MK-Ultra--
--Father Joseph Maskell
worked as the chaplain
for the Maryland State Police,
the Baltimore County Police
and the Air National
Guard, where he held
the rank of Lieutenant Colonel.
Former Baltimore Sun reporter
Tom Nugent, also featured
in The Keepers, wrote
that Maskell further
worked for several years as
chaplain at the US Army's Fort
Meade military base, which
is the home of the National
Security Agency.
Tom Nugent said 20-year-old
Baltimore County Office worker
Joyce Malecki's murdered body
was found on the Fort Meade
military base in November of
1969 near the time of Sister
Cathy Cesnik's disappearance.
Journalist Nugent said the FBI
is charged with solving murders
on US military bases
and told him in 2004,
that it had never investigated
the Malecki killing
and had no records
at all related
to any investigation
of the case.
But in 2014, in response to a
Freedom of Information request,
the FBI reportedly confirmed
having compiled thousands
of pages on the Malecki murder
and despite a promise to release
them, still sits on
nearly 6,000 pages.
In response to this lack of
fidelity, bravery and integrity,
an FBI spokesman said our
evidence response team
has spent years with
guns drawn looking
all over our offices
and Fort Meade.
But we just had a hard
time finding anything
related to that Malecki murder.
Nugent said that time period
had four other unsolved killings
of teenagers,
leaving investigators
wondering if they are
connected to sexual abuse
at Archbishop Keough High School
and several other Baltimore area
Catholic schools.
Investigator Gemma
Hoskins, seen here
being interviewed
on The View, had
been inspired to become a
teacher by Sister Cathy Cesnik
and won a Maryland
Teacher of the Year Award.
Here she is on The View.
It's so horrifying.
What has the reaction been,
Gemma, since you released
this series from people?
It's been overwhelming.
Surreal.
We have been on the
receiving end of many more
stories of abuse, and Jean's is
representative of many of those.
Now, we have probably
almost a hundred people
who have come forward that claim
to have been abused by Maskell.
And we--
Not just Maskell, right?
The implication is that
others are involved,
the police department--
Yes.
Yes.
Doctors.
Right.
NARRATOR: Gemma Hoskins
continued her investigations
after The Keepers filming
and started a podcast
interviewing more victims
as well as outside experts.
Maskell victim, Jean Hargadon
Wehner discussed her abuse
on this CBS Morning news show.
I remember being
raped by Maskell.
REPORTER: Jean
Hargadon Wehner says
she was also abused by Maskell
at the same Catholic school.
He was in this pattern of
manipulating, controlling.
NARRATOR: In a 2022
podcast, Jean Wehner
recounted how Father
Maskell had police
come in the back door of
his office to rape her.
Such as police Captain James
Scannell and Officer Robert
Zimmerman.
In 2023, after the attorney
general released the church sex
abuse report,
mainstream news programs
such as CBS Morning
news interviewed
Attorney General Anthony Brown
about the report and the cover
up.
REPORTER: Maryland Attorney
General Anthony Brown
issued the report.
For many, it ruined their
lives, their families.
And as disturbing, we found a
extensive cover up in an effort
to conceal the abuse.
NARRATOR: Attorney General
Brown added the implication
that the church needs to come
completely clean as the attorney
general's office
settles for nothing
less than full disclosure.
The Keepers documented how
Maskell's victims Jean Hargadon
Wehner and Teresa
Lancaster brought
a lawsuit against Father Joseph
Maskell, accusing him of rape.
The Keepers presented how Johns
Hopkins psychiatry department
director, Dr. Paul
McHugh, testified
on behalf of Father Maskell
and the other defendants.
Dr. McHugh convinced the judge
that the plaintiffs could not
have recalled sexual abuse
from repressed memories
as they don't exist.
McHugh said this despite that
such dissociative amnesia
is part of dissociative disorder
and dissociative identity
disorder, formerly multiple
personality disorder--
--which have been
part of the Bible
of psychiatry, the Diagnostic
Statistical Manual, since 1980.
Years later, in 2017,
the Baltimore archdiocese
ended up disagreeing
with its star witness Dr.
McHugh when it's spokesman Sean
Kane told the Baltimore Sun that
"the church fully acknowledges
abuse committed by Maskell,"
paying out over $10 million in
settlements related to abuse,
including Maskell's victims.
Following in the big clown
shoes of his predecessor,
MK-Ultra funding recipient and
Hopkins psychiatric director
John Whitehorn,
Hopkins Dr. Paul McHugh
sat on the board of the False
Memory Syndrome Foundation,
which advocated for adults
accused of raping children.
The False Memory Syndrome Group
ended with disgrace in 2019
as one of its three
founding members,
Ralph Underwager, a psychologist
and Lutheran minister,
infamously stated that 60%
of women sexually abused
said it was good for them.
Underwager then tried to
outdo himself in an interview
by celebrating that pedophiles
can boldly and courageously
affirm what they choose.
Baltimore-based Father Joseph
Maskell was an equal opportunity
pedophile.
While he abused many females at
Archbishop Keough High School
for Catholic Girls,
He also abused
boys such as Ross Weiss at other
places he worked part-time.
Weiss said that Maskell
would then pimp him out
to other parishes and offices in
Baltimore, Catonsville, Towson,
Washington D.C.,
and even Fort Meade.
Remember that Fort Meade was the
home of the vast intelligence
group, the National
Security Agency.
Maskell worked as
a chaplain there,
providing spies with
spiritual guidance
with his expertise in
child rape, prostitution
and blackmail.
[ELECTROCULT CIRCUS,
"ANTIHILLS"] We are separate
Bathing in slumber
Look around you
Count all the numbers
of those who are--
The Maryland Attorney General's
church sex abuse report
identifies 158 priests
sexually and physically abusing
over 600 victims over
the past 80 years.
Investigators told
the court there
are likely 100 more victims.
With data from the US Department
of Justice suggesting that 86%
of child sexual abuse
is never reported,
the real number is likely over
4,200 victims in the Baltimore
archdiocese, about
half of Maryland.
And with similar
attorney general reports
from Massachusetts
and Pennsylvania,
this is a tiny percentage of the
United States of sexual abuse.
Maskell victim Jean
Hargadon Wehner
also states in The
Keepers documentary series
that Father Maskell took her to
Sister Cathy Cesnik's dead body
before police found
it, threatening her
that she'd be next if she
told anyone of her abuse.
Wehner's description of the
site matched unreleased police
records.
With these reports,
Father Joseph Maskell
had far surpassed even Papa John
Phillips as the world's worst
father figure.
When Wehner was
in court, she said
that one of her rapists as
a teenager in Maskell office
was a Baltimore City politician.
In 1995, under the
alias Jennifer,
Wehner said that this politician
"had given a pretend political
speech while she was required
to perform oral sex on him."
This along with
the photos Maskell
reported to have
taken in his office,
offer more evidence
that it was part
of a vast blackmail
operation, which
was common throughout the
history of the FBI and the CIA.
One Baltimore Sun
article made it clearer
why the police, FBI and
prosecutors failed to arrest
and charge certain police.
It gave the example of a
priest from the abuse report,
Father Robert Newman
admitting in 1987
that he had abused 12
boys more than 100 times.
Newman was never
charged with a crime
as he received an exceptional
clearance from the Baltimore
states attorney's office.
They all found him
absolutely exceptional.
Readers can repeat horror
stories like this over 463 times
in that many pages
of this report.
Similar reports came out in
the states of Pennsylvania--
--and Massachusetts with similar
results in that the priests had
largely escaped
public accountability
and in some cases,
were promoted.
The Baltimore Sun
presented video interviews
they conducted with Father
Maskell sex abuse survivor Donna
Von Den Bosch featured in
The Keepers and seen here.
It started when
I was 16, and I
know it was LSD
because of the writing
on the side of the capsule.
I saw it one day before
he put it in my Coke.
I was riding a school bus.
I was 16 or 17.
And I called her best
friend and my worst enemy.
And I think my school
was getting her to take--
put it in my mouth because
we would get in fights.
She looked like a
football player,
and we would get fights
on the school bus
where we would be
rolling in the aisle.
And she would be
putting it in my mouth,
and I'd be fighting
back, and she'd
have her hand over my mouth,
so I couldn't spit out.
And it was every
day for 30 days.
And I can't tell you how I
felt by the end of 30 days.
Yeah, everything was numb on me.
And do you know I was given
a post-hypnotic suggestion?
I was at a party once, and I
never held a gun or anything,
and I shot it.
We were shooting at gong rings,
Coke rings on a tree, and I won.
I won.
I got the three in a
row right first time.
And I'm like--
I was so upset holding
that gun and doing that.
I had to go off and
just leave the area.
And I always had a big
fear in my life that some--
I knew it code, a digit number.
And I always had
a big fear someone
would call and
give me this digit,
and I didn't know that
it was such a big fear.
And then I met another victim
I met through The Keepers.
And I don't think
she went to Keough.
I don't know.
But we-- she had the same
fear, and the same experience.
We always felt like we
would go kill somebody.
I've been on and off the
counselors all my life
but in 1993 is when I
went to Nancy Hanley.
I remember the policeman.
He was a police photographer
coming in the back door,
the fire door.
I remember him
yelling at me one day.
I remember him yell that.
And I thought, what the hell
is he talking about now?
That they are watching me.
And I thought, I'm 16 years old.
Nobody cares about me.
NARRATOR: Other girls
across the country
reported sexual abuse
more directly by the CIA.
In listening to
the testimony today,
it all sounds really familiar.
NARRATOR: In 1995, New Orleans
based trauma therapist Valerie
Wolf testified with
two women she counseled
at a hearing of the
President's Advisory Committee
involving human
experimentation on children.
As a therapist for
the past 22 years,
I have specialized in treating
victims and perpetrators
of trauma and their families.
When word got out
that I was appearing
at this hearing, nearly 40
therapists across the country--
--and I had about a week
and a half to prepare,
contacted me to
talk about clients
who had reported being subjects
in radiation and mind control
experiments.
The consistency of
people's stories
about the purpose
of the mind control
and pain induction techniques
such as electric shock, use
of hallucinogens, sensory
deprivation, hypnosis,
dislocation of limbs and
sexual abuse is remarkable.
NARRATOR: One of Wolf's two
testifying counseling clients,
Chris DeNicola, testified
about her experience
as an experimental subject.
Documents supporting
this were submitted
to the advisory committee.
All these experiments
were performed on me
in conjunction with
mind control techniques
and drugs in Tucson, Arizona.
Dr. Green was using me
mostly as a mind control
subject from 1966 to 1973.
His objective was to
gain control of my mind
and train me to
be a spy assassin.
The first significant
memory took place
at Kansas City
University in 1966.
Don Ebner took me there by plane
when my mom was out of town.
I was in what looked
like a laboratory,
and there seemed to
be other children.
I was strapped down,
naked, spread eagle
on a table on my back.
Dr. Green had electrodes on
my body, including my head.
Between 1972 and 1976,
he and his assistants
were sometimes careless
and left the cage unlocked.
Whenever physically possible,
I snuck into his office
and found files with
reports and memos addressed
to CIA and military personnel.
Included in these
files were project,
sub-project, subject
and experiment
names with some code numbers.
NARRATOR: The other
counseling client
of Valerie Wolf's, Claudia
Mullins, named the top CIA
and project MK-Ultra figures
as using sexual abuse,
hypnosis and torture, while also
mentioning Operation Artichoke,
which was part of MK-Ultra.
She further described a
meeting they had with her
where they instructed her on
conducting sexual blackmail
against government officials
and academic leaders
to keep money flowing.
But Dr. John
Gittinger tested me.
Dr. Cameron gave me the shocks,
and Dr. Green the X-rays.
Then I was told by Sid
Gottlieb that, quote,
"I was right for the big
A" or meaning artichoke.
Made me for the
odd bruises, needle
marks, burns on my head, fingers
and even the genital soreness.
I had no reason to
believe otherwise.
They had already begun
to control my mind.
The next year, I
was sent to a lodge
in Maryland called Deep
Creek Cabins to learn
how to sexually please men.
I was taught how to coerce them
into talking about themselves.
And it was Richard Helms who was
deputy director of the CIA, Dr.
Gottlieb, George White,
Morris Allen, who
all planned on filming as many
high government agency officials
and heads of academic
institutions and foundations
as possible, so that later, when
the funding for mind control
and radiation
started to dwindle,
projects would continue.
[ELECTROCULT CIRCUS,
"ANTIHILLS"] Because it is
rising
What are you
NARRATOR: The year before
the 1995 President's Advisory
Committee hearing, Father
Maskell victims, Jean Wehner
and Teresa Lancaster, had filed
the aforementioned lawsuit
against Father Maskell,
and that lawsuit also
included fellow Archbishop
Keough Chaplain Neil
Magnus and local Baltimore
gynecologist Dr. Christian
Richter.
This was covered in
The Keepers in 2017,
and in this local
news segment, in 1994.
REPORTER: The other
alleged victim, Jane Roe,
claims the same things
happened to her.
Plus, she says Father
Maskell took her
to a local gynecologist,
Dr. Christian Richter,
where she alleges during several
exams, they both raped her.
NARRATOR: A reported
child sex abuse victim
named Lynn Schirmer
was born in Detroit
and shown here in a local
newspaper picture with Miss
Universe just before
Schirmer moved
to Alabama at six years old.
When Lynn got older, she
said that she found out
her father received
money from the CIA
to allow them to
experiment on her
at an annex of a NASA facility
in Huntsville, Alabama,
as a child.
Gemma Hoskins did a podcast
interview with Lynn Schirmer
where she gave details
of her sexual abuse
by Dr. Richter and others.
LYNN SCHIRMER: The place where
I saw Richter was like an annex.
It was a facility
that my perpetrators
used when they couldn't get into
the main facilities at NASA.
And Richter came in and
was hovering behind my--
the perpetrator, the
main perpetrator.
And he had with him a black box.
And he gave the box to the main
guy, and they hooked me up.
Richter again, he
paced around behind.
The main guy did all the work.
And when it was over,
Richter was really pleased.
And then he raped me.
NARRATOR: In 2021,
a woman named Liz,
who worked as a
medical assistant
for Dr. Christian
Richter for years,
came forward and corroborated
evidence of Theresa Lancaster's
and Lynn Schirmer
statements about Richter.
Liz described a locked
basement exam room,
illegally working with patients
without assistance and Richter
having and moving the
black EKG machine.
Schirmer described when
Richter traveled often.
LIZ ROE: An old
vintage EKG machine,
a portable EKG machine that
I remember seeing it moved.
Dr. Richter traveled
all the time.
Absolutely.
NARRATOR: In August of 2019,
Gemma Hoskins and Shane Waters
interviewed Canadian trained
psychiatrist Dr. Colin Ross.
Dr. Ross wrote some early books
on multiple personality disorder
now called dissociative
identity disorder--
--which were given
positive reviews
from top psychiatric
journals, such as the British
Journal of Psychiatry.
Dissociative identity
disorder stems
from sexual and physical
abuse in childhood.
As previously discussed,
Dr. Ross reviewed 10,000
declassified CIA MK-Ultra
documents for his book,
The CIA Doctors, Human
Rights Violations by American
Psychiatrists.
SHANE WATERS: How does
LSD fit into the program?
I know you mentioned
LSD a few minutes ago.
COLIN ROSS: One of my
recent papers is called--
I think it's called "LSD
Experiments by the US Army."
And it's a detailed history
of-- so the army, the air force,
the Navy and the CIA
all did LSD experiments,
and these included under
MK-Ultra and related programs.
SHANE WATERS: We asked
some of the survivors
if they had questions
that they would
like us to discuss with you.
Gemma, I'll let you
ask the first one.
GEMMA HOSKINS: OK.
And before I do this, I want
both Dr. Ross and our listeners
to know that the reason
Shane and I began
to look into the
MK-Ultra facet of this
is because of Jean Wehner.
She and the women that sent
me questions, they really do
believe they were programmed.
When I was in my 20s, I
was missing large gaps
in my personal history.
I could not remember
whole years.
I thought it was due to trauma.
I was sent to a ritual
abuse doctor in the '90s.
He agreed I was ritually
sexually abused.
I could not recognize my own
hand if I was laying in bed.
I thought I had killed somebody.
I felt guilt. Now she was--
I should have said
this, but she was
sexually abused by Father
Joseph Maskell, who
was the chaplain
at her high school,
as well as some other men
who he hypnotized her,
he drugged her with some
liquid and other men
paid to come in-- actually
into the school building.
And she really
believes that she was
programmed so that if
she talked about it,
she would kill herself.
Is that a possibility?
COLIN ROSS: Yes, all these
elements of programming,
that is hypnosis, drugs,
memorization exercises,
codes being implanted are
described in the CIA documents
in great detail.
So they would hypnotize
somebody who's
sometimes just a secretary
in the CIA, who's
a good hypnotic subject.
They hypnotize her.
They implant a code, which could
be a tone on the telephone,
could be a hand signal,
could be a series of numbers.
And then she comes
out of hypnosis.
She's carrying on with
her day and somebody
does the tone, the hand
signal or says the code,
she switches into
her hypnotized state.
She goes and retrieves
some documents or hands
off what she thinks is
a bomb or in one case,
pulls the trigger
on what she thinks
is a loaded gun to kill a
military officer that she knows.
Of course, it was
all not real bullets.
So all these things are
described in great detail
in the CIA documents.
They actually happened for sure.
Posthypnotic suggestions
are completely
validated in the
hypnosis literature.
GEMMA HOSKINS: There
was a psychiatrist
that the Archdioceses of
Baltimore had a contract with,
and he traveled to
different schools,
and he was authorized to
administer certain tests
and to evaluate students.
And he was very close
friends with Joseph Maskell.
And we found that they
were personality tests
with a scale that
would have been
used to screen possible
candidates for susceptibility.
And we have heard from
hundreds of alumni
who said they were given
that test in a classroom
in their freshman year.
And then depending
on how they scored,
they were called
into his office,
and it was given to him--
given to them again.
And we really feel Urban
and the-- it was called the,
I'm just going to say it,
the psychology associates.
A number of those psychiatrists
also abused young girls.
REPORTER: And this appears
to be something else.
The American
Psychological Association
says it's a version of the
Millon Clinical Multiaxial
Inventory Test.
NARRATOR: In response to this
question, Gemma Hoskins posed
from a survivor, Dr. Ross
discussed a patient of his
who was abused in psychiatric
hospitals in Vermont.
This patient, Karen
Wetmore, later
published a book
about the experience
called Surviving Evil.
She explored her
medical records and did
freedom of Information
Act requests
on related CIA
documents, finding
Robert Hyde in her records.
Dr. Ross found CIA
documents saying
Robert Hyde contracted with
MK-Ultra on sub-project 63, 66,
as well as sub-project 10.
In her medical record is the
name Robert Hyde who was a top
secret cleared LSD
contractor under MK-Ultra
And there's numerous other
connections in MK-Ultra from
the doctors who were
at the hospital.
And this includes the CIA
program all fully documented,
and the name of the guy and the
name of the psychological test
who was a CIA officer.
And these tests were
widely administered
at schools and other
locations in Vermont
and throughout
the United States.
That's absolutely a fact.
NARRATOR: Another question
matched many survivors questions
about Father Maskell
giving them LSD.
This comes likely due to the
fact that studies reflected
in books such as this about
LSD state the drug provides
"a marked heightening of
patients suggestibility."
After talking to a national
audience in The Keepers
and shows such as The
View, Gemma Hoskins
could only express her
most radical conclusions
on podcasts such as one
produced by author Nick Bryant.
Nick Bryant discovered
the tragic plight
of boys in a vast
Nebraska foster home
who he reported were
trafficked to Washington D.C.
politicians in his book,
The Franklin Scandal,
published in 2009.
In 2011, Bryant attained
billionaire, pedophile and drug
pusher Jeff Epstein's
little black book,
but couldn't get a
single news source
to publish its contents
until Gawker published
his article on it in 2015.
Finally, on July 18th, 2019,
magazines such as Vanity Fair
said journalist Nick Bryant
comes in from the fringe,
though mainstream media had
put him there for years.
Gemma Hoskins
summarized here how
she found Father
Joseph Maskell's
network of prostitution,
drugs and trafficking
spanned the East Coast.
--who had been abused by
Maskell or somebody in his
network.
And I've learned over
the last five years,
that, that network was huge.
I think it spanned
the whole East Coast.
I think it was a network
of prostitution, drugs,
like, trafficking.
NARRATOR: Gemma further
told of the FBI lying
around Joyce Malecki's death
before Nick Bryant summed up
how he found that US
intelligence sensors
any sensitive
information, such as this.
With the Franklin scandal,
the FBI intimidated the kids--
Mm-hmm.
--so they wouldn't talk.
The FBI certainly
played an integral role
in covering up Epstein.
Epstein--
Mm-hmm.
Right.
The Franklin
scandal, ultimately,
if you follow all
the threads, goes--
intersects with intelligence.
So when it runs into that area,
it's very easy for intelligence
to just quash it.
NARRATOR: The only slight silver
lining in all this bad news
is that the work of
advocates like Gemma Hoskins
and all of the sex
abuse survivors
had some success in 2023.
That year, they finally
convinced Maryland lawmakers
to pass--
--and the government to sign
the Child Victims Act, which
will end Maryland's
statute of limitations
for when lawsuits can be
filed against institutions
for child sexual abuse.

Regarding the
promotion of marijuana
by marijuana dispensaries
that have weeded
their way into every
crevice of the country,
that and the
psychedelic promotion
have really played out
well as the soma lulling us
along in the brave new world
that we're living in today.
Of course, people can use
whatever drugs they like,
but the oligarchs, groups such
as the World Economic Forum,
are trying to convince us
to be happy with their ever
increasing tyrannical ways.
For example, the World Economic
Forum leader Klaus Schwab
said that by 2030, you'll
own nothing and be happy.
Klaus Schwab grew up as the
son of a factory manager
in Southern Germany.
Klaus's father, Eugen
Schwab, was the director
of the factory of
the Swiss company
Escher-Wyss in Ravensburg when
Klaus Schwab was born in 1938.
Escher-Wyss was the biggest
employer in Ravensbrck
in the 1930s.
With a small Jewish
community in Ravensburg,
Escher-Wyss didn't seem to have
a problem when the Nazis forced
the sale of the four large
Jewish department stores
and when at least eight
died violently in the 1930s.
Under the term racial
improvement in Ravensburg,
people with mental or physical
illnesses received 389
sterilization
operations in the 1930s.
Eugen Schwab was true to his
name in leading a proud eugenics
community of Nazis whose
party awarded the Escher-Wyss
Ravensburg branch the title of
National Socialist Model Company
while Schwab was at the helm.
When World War II started,
Escher-Wyss benefited from
the fact that 3,600 forced
laborers worked in Ravensburg
who the company kept
in a special camp.
Come on, who doesn't like camp?
Escher-Wyss was working on a
large order of flamethrowers
for Hitler's war effort.
Escher-Wyss also led industries
in turbine technology.
The Norsk Hydro plant, part
powered by Escher-Wyss,
was the only industrial
plant under Nazi control
capable of producing
heavy water,
an ingredient essential
for making plutonium
for the Nazi atomic
bomb program.
Eugene Schwab and
company almost helped
the Nazis win World War II.
The WEF also is trying to
convince us through their tweets
that not wanting to eat bugs
in the future is bigotry.
They ask, is it racist
to not want to transition
to a bug-based diet?
To defy these World Economic
Forum movements towards tyranny,
we'll have to be
our sharpest selves
and not hanging out for
hours, getting high,
acting like house cats.

NARRATOR: Opium crops were
so prolific in the 1800s that
the British had their Indian
workers roll it into thousands
of soccer sized balls.
A sketch was made of stacking
rooms for these opium balls
in an opium factory in
Patna, India, in 1850.
They sat on wooden structures
almost looking like a library,
but the stacks were as
high as six story buildings
in vast warehouses, one
to two city blocks long.
Two superintendents
and 450 young boys
took care of the balls.
Aren't kids the best?
So what did the wealthiest Brits
and some of their wealthiest
American compatriots in the
British East India company
want with all this opium?
Were they pushing opium as
a religion for the masses,
as a form of social control?
The Russell family of opium
traders founded Yale University.
The Cabot family
of opium traders
helped found Harvard University.
The low opium traders, Columbia,
the greens, Princeton and so on.
Here's the best selling
author, James Bradley,
discussing it at the
Atlanta History center.
Cabot House at Harvard, I
discovered, that's opium money.
NARRATOR: By the later 1800s,
the Bayer company had turned
opium into heroin.
Bayer called heroin
a non-addictive cure
for adult ailments and
infant respiratory diseases.
A year later, it developed a
milder pain reliever, aspirin.
PRESENTER: Two Bayer tablets
bring all the pain relief power
your headache can use.
Bayer is pure aspirin,
not just pawn aspirin.
Bayer works wonders.
NARRATOR: Bayer
aspirin, from the people
that brought you heroin.
A parallel social control agenda
started in the late 1800s with
London med school
dropout Francis Galton,
who wanted to breed people for
better folks and do away with
the feeble races.
He used a mix of Greek terms
to create the word eugenics
from well-born.
Of course, the
aristocrat Brits who
bankrolled Fran G were the
superior race and all others,
feebles.
Fran G. counted
greenbacks as his books
got sent around the world like
the British East Indian opium
balls.
The new rich
industrialists rose up
against the royalty
and each side vied
for the workers help
against the other,
leading European countries
to get national health
care and a freer media and
halting eugenics in Europe.
The US didn't have royalty to
with the new industrialists,
many of whom had benefited
from opium money.
By 1912, the W.A.S.P
super wealthy families,
America's oligarchs, including
railroad tycoon E.H. Harriman,
the Rockefeller's
and Morgans, had
joined the Carnegie's in
sponsoring eugenics nationwide.
The oligarchs first targeted
over 11 million Americans
for sterilization
or elimination,
aiming for 10% of the
population at a time.
Heady days for the
pre-Hitler folk.
By the 1920s, these American
eugenicists invested in German
eugenics, which became Nazism.
Germany's Institute
for Hereditary Biology
and Racial Hygiene
blossomed under Rockefellers
and other oligarchs largesse.
Professor Antony Sutton, who was
a research fellow at Stanford
University's Hoover
Institute, exposed
how the top American financial
oligarchs had their companies
invest heavily in Nazi Germany.
For example, Sutton showed a
Moody's manual of investments
table from 1930s stating
the Ford Motor Company
and the Rockefeller's Standard
Oil and National City Bank share
directors with giant
chemical company IG Farben.
After World War II,
America's office
of strategic services,
OSS, turned into the CIA,
and ran operations
such as Sunshine
to get the Nazis down to South
America and other continents
to bring joy to the world.
It ran Operation Paperclip to
gain Nazi scientists safe haven.
They did this with the help of
the Red Cross and the Vatican,
obviously for public health
and religious reasons.
Archival records cite how
the CIA precursor OSS,
directed by Rockefeller,
Morgan lawyer Allen Dulles,
falsely claimed that Nazis
such as Adolf Eichmann,
Josef Mengele and Klaus
Barbie had died in the 1940s.
Klaus, the butcher
of Lyon, Barbie
went to Argentina
and then Bolivia.
Josef Mengele had
fled to Brazil.
Klaus may have been the most
barbaric of the Barbie family
in Bolivia, but there was
also his daughter, Ski Barbie,
his pie making wife, Baker
Barbie, and his hand glider
loving pilot son, Sky Barbie.
Similar to many Nazis
in Latin America,
Klaus Barbie became "a
fixer for drug lords"
as he "reinvented himself
with the help of Western
intelligence."
As this Reuters article
points out about Barbie,
he and other Nazis helped top
officials such as the Bolivian
interior minister, known
as minister for cocaine,
acting as an advisor.
Top CIA whistleblower,
Victor Marchetti
and British editor
Frances Stonor Saunders
then documented how
the American oligarchs
founded the CIA in 1947
and made its director
overseer of the other 14
plus intelligence agencies.
Reports of the numbers of
Nazis saved by the OSS and CIA
in Latin America ranged
from 9,000 to what a German
journalist, Herbert
John, reported as 50,000.
Did they aid the CIA
in cocaine trafficking?
When the Nazis arrived
in South America,
50,000 after the war,
they set up a network.
They taught the police,
the military security
forces how to enrich themselves.
And Barbie was the
man in Bolivia.
NARRATOR: 60 Minutes covered
how the former head of the Drug
Enforcement Agency, the
DEA, exposed the CIAs drug
trafficking.
MIKE WALLACE
(VOICEOVER): The head
of the DEA at the
time, Robert Bonner,
said that a ton of pure cocaine
worth hundreds of millions
of dollars had been smuggled
into the United States,
and he blamed the CIA.
NARRATOR: James Bradley's
book, The Imperial Cruise,
supported that the oligarchs
also had continued their opium
shipping well into
the 1900s and beyond.
They had further added more
of the pharmaceutical business
in the 1900s.

Martin Lee and Bruce
Shlain's book, Acid Dreams,
along with Professor Al
McCoy's A Question of Torture,
and former Carter Presidential
administration official Hank
Albarelli detailed how
Operation Paperclip brought
Nazi scientists who had tested
mescaline on Jewish prisoners
into the US to work for
a project, MK-Ultra,
and other science programs.
This anthropology Today article
cited a declassified 1963 CIA
report summarizing various
MK-Ultra projects for control
of human behavior, including
radiation, electroshock
and chemical agents
like LSD and DMT.
The Anthropology Today article
also reported that "The extent
of covert CIA funding of
social science research during
the 1950s and 1960s
was extraordinary."
This funding coincided with the
Big Three, Ford, Rockefeller.
And Carnegie.
The CIA project
MK-Ultra whose name
was changed to
MK-Search in 1964,
secretly funded about 45
top American universities,
50 hospitals and 50 prisons
through an MK-Ultra front group,
the Human Ecology Fund, out
of Cornell University Medical
School.
Many of the funding
recipients can be seen here.
Professors at Harvard, Columbia,
Stanford, and Johns Hopkins
were among these recipients.
Some of this research
paid volunteers
to participate in psilocybin,
psychedelic mushroom and LSD
experiments.
The oligarchs hired Dr.
Sidney Gottlieb as director
of the CIAs project, MK-Ultra.
England's the Daily
Mail compared him
with James Bond's supervisor Q,
which shows how movies glamorize
barbaric spies.
Dr. Gottlieb had a clubfoot
but got around globally.
"CIA documents cited, in
a documentary by ABC News
confirmed, that Gottlieb
carried a stash of acid overseas
on a number of occasions"
to dose foreign diplomats,
statesmen along with promising
leftist artists and writers.
Psych Professor Timothy Leary
headed the CIAs Human Ecology
Fund experiments at
Harvard University
until Harvard kicked out
Leary and his acid addled,
egghead, professorial
sidekicks Richard Alpert
and Ralph Metzner in 1963.
William and Margaret
Mellon Hitchcock
of Mellon Bank and Gulf
Oil owning families
quickly entered the scene.
The Mellon Hitchcocks had family
in top US intelligence posts.
They funded a new acid promotion
group for Leary, Metzner
and Alpert, the International
Federation for Internal Freedom
IFIF.
IFIF instantly had headquarters
in Boston, New York, Los Angeles
and even one near
Acapulco in Mexico.
William Mellon Hitchcock had
a 38 room mansion on his 2,300
acre estate an hour north of New
York city, which Leary, Metzner,
and Alpert rented out very
cheaply for the next five years.
Agents, Dr. Humphry Osmond,
Captain Al Hubbard, Max,
Dr. Feelgood Jacobsen, And
NASA scientist Steve Groff
joined them.
Leary later admitted
that from 1962 onwards,
he knowingly worked for the CIA.
Psychologist Leary's
Millbrook mansion
was psychedelic central
for the whole East Coast.
The team of spies lured
many from New York City
up to the constant
Millbrook party
and initiated them to acid.
Left wing writer and
publisher Paul Krassner
said that a
pot-bellied Brit named
Michael Hollingshead, reported
as a propaganda agent,
guided him on an acid
trip that included
uncontrollable laughing for
an hour that he couldn't stop.
He laughed so hard
that he threw up.
Good times.
Ralph Metzner
described people saying
they were seeing
things not there
and walking into
doors or furniture.
Mind expansion at its best.
Another Millbrook visitor
named Arthur Kleps
swore that potbelly Hollingshead
placed a few thousand
micrograms of pure Sandoz acid
in some brandy by his bed.
Kleps ended up founding
an organization he named
"The Neo-American
Boo-hoo Church" in 1966.
Former Harvard
egghead Rich Alpert
kept his keen analytical
judgment when on one acid trip,
he thought he might
be able to fly.
He jumped out a second floor
window and broke his leg.

While the opium
shipping oligarchs
were having CIA agents promote
psychedelics on American masses,
they never took their
eyes off the top cash crop
prize of Poppy fields.
First, they focused on the
Vietnam area called the Golden
Triangle for Poppy fields.
They influenced politicians
to support the second longest
American war starting
in the 1960s.
Professor Al McCoy's book,
The Politics of Heroin,
detailed US intelligence's vast
opium and heroin trafficking
from Vietnam to the US
during the Vietnam War.
Frontline's Judy Woodruff
revealed a US intelligence
agents report attesting to their
bringing heroin into the US
during the Vietnam War.
JUDY WOODRUFF: But in 1972,
a US intelligence agent
in Southeast Asia sent a
secret field report to customs.
The CIA was, in fact,
facilitating the movement
of opiates to the US.
They steadfastly hid behind the
shield of secrecy and said that
all was done in the interest of
national security." end quote.
NARRATOR: Heroin
addiction and overdoses
were sent soaring in the
US, as shown in this chart.
As this picture shows,
heroin produced a huge boost
in the American stock market as
dirty profits from heroin sales
were laundered through profit
margins of banks and other stock
corporations.
Stockbrokers
celebrated nationwide
when large shipments of
heroin came into the US
as may have been implied here
in The Wolf of Wall Street.

The four top political icons
of the 1960s, JFK, RFK,
MLK and Malcolm X, were actively
trying to end the Vietnam War.
President John F. Kennedy had
an apparent political sea change
while in office and
ended up declaring an end
to sending troops to Vietnam.
He also tried to close down the
CIAs operation MK-Ultra, firing
the CIA director and his
assistant who helped run it.
We would expect to withdraw
1,000 men from South Vietnam
before the end of the year.
If we are able to do that,
that will be our schedule.
A policy was put into place
to end the US involvement
in Vietnam and a formal
presidential decision
was taken in October of 1963
that would, if implemented,
have caused a full
pullout of US forces
from Vietnam by the end of 1965.
NARRATOR: New Orleans
District Attorney Jim Garrison
announced on The Tonight
Show with Johnny Carson
his findings about
the CIAs success

oligarchs opium trafficking
interests.
At Dealey Plaza, there
were 10 men arrested,
and this has been kept secret
for more than four years.
Here are the pictures of
five of them being arrested,
and they've never

Several of these
men arrested have
been connected by our office
with a Central Intelligence
Agency of the United
States government.
I am trying to
tell you that there
is no question, as a result
of our investigation,
that an element of the
Central Intelligence
Agency of our country
killed John Kennedy
and that the present
administration is concealing
the facts.
There is no question
about it at all.
NARRATOR: Robert
Kennedy Jr. talked
with interviewer Russell Brand
about his uncle's assassination.
Here's Robert
Kennedy Jr. telling
of being called home from
school at nine years old because
of his uncle's death
in November of 1963.
And I arrived at the
same time John McComb
arrived at my house, who
was the director of the CIA
at that time, and my
father brought him
for a walk in the yard and
said the same thing to him.
Was it the CIA who
did this to Jack?
So my father's first
instinct, which
was a good instinct
it turns out,
was that the CIA had
killed his brother.
NARRATOR: In June of 1968,
Senator Robert F. Kennedy
won the decisive California
presidential primary,
marking the likelihood
of his winning
the Democratic nomination and
then gaining the presidency.
At the location of his
Los Angeles celebration
that election night,
gunman Sirhan Sirhan
fired multiple times
at Senator Kennedy.
A security guard just behind
Kennedy also fired his gun.
Decades later, a Harvard
Medical School hypnosis expert
analyzed Sirhan and said he
had conducted the assassination
while in a hypnotic state.
We came to a conclusion
that the muzzle distance would
be 1 inch from the right here.
INTERVIEWER: Now, how far
was Sirhan from Senator
Kennedy at the time?
I would say approximately
from 3 to 6 feet.
INTERVIEWER: Where was this
guard who was firing his gun?
He was standing directly to
the side and back of Kennedy.

Back in the UK, the
Beatles founding singer
got involuntarily dosed
with LSD in their coffee
by the dentist of fellow
Beatle George Harrison.
The dentist had the two
Beatles and their partners
over for dinner
and dosing in 1965.
A.E. Hotchner, a former
editor for Ernest Hemingway,
wrote the book Blown Away.
Hotchner wrote that
at the start of 1965,
MK-Ultra Assistant
Director Rob Lashbrook
had come to London with
loads of acid and CIA agents
to get acid in as many
musician's hands as possible.
In 1966, top American musician
David Van Cortlandt Crosby
invited the Beatles
to a party when they
were playing in Los Angeles.
Crosby's family was so
wealthy that they had New York
City's third largest park named
after the family's former estate
on 1,100 acres in the Bronx.
At that party with the
Beatles, Crosby and others
convinced Lennon and Harrison
to trip again, this time
with their drummer, Ringo Starr.
In 1967, an undercover
FBI and MI5 agent
would convince Rolling
Stones singer Mick Jagger
to try his first hit of acid.
Late author Dave
McGowan wrote the book,
Weird Scenes Inside the Canyon,
Laurel Canyon, Covert Ops
and the Dark Heart
of the Hippie Dream.
McGowan said David
van Cortland Crosby--
--and many American musicians
like him had little talent
before the oligarchs made them
instant stars in the Laurel
Canyon area of Los
Angeles in the 1960s.
McGowan had found that Crosby's
father was military intelligence
officer, Major Floyd
Delafield Crosby
and that most of these
Laurel Canyon rock stars
also had military families.
The oligarchs, including
Barbara Sears' Rockefeller's
first cousin, Vito
Paulekas, appeared
to pay for a bevy of
teen girls and some guys
to come to these
musician's first shows.
Paulekas taught dance
classes in Laurel Canyon.
Paulekas, his dancers
and these musicians
lured other musicians and actors
to their Laurel Canyon homes
with regular sex and drug
parties from 1966 onwards.
Paulekas instructed and even
housed many of these groupies.
They attended the parties
and helped turn many
on to acid, heroin,
cocaine and other drugs.
McGowens book, and
the book, Drugs
as Weapons Against
Us present evidence
that this whole scene was linked
to the CIAs Ultra program.
US intelligence already had
hundreds of agents in Laurel
Canyon working in the Air
Force's secret Lookout Mountain
film studio there, making a
reported 19,000 classified
motion pictures.
250 producers, directors,
technicians and actors,
both civilian and military,
all had top security clearances
or signed confidentiality
agreements about their work.
These included
Hollywood's biggest names.
While David Crosby may have
held the most sex and drug
parties in Laurel Canyon,
Papa John Phillips
also hosted regular
sex and drug parties.
Before starting the top selling
band The Mamas and the Papas,
Phillips had been
in the Naval Academy
with a dad who was a
Marine Corps officer.
He then played folk
music in New York.
When Papa John was 27,
he left his first wife
aristocratic Susan Adams,
a direct descendant
of President John Adams.
Attendees of Papa John
Phillips drug orgy parties
included top Hollywood
stars and musicians,
along with Charles
Manson and his followers.
Papa John had also traveled
north to act as the father
of San Francisco's
Summer of Love in 1967,
when he invited millions to the
area with the hit song he wrote
for his friend Scott McKenzie
about coming to the acid
saturated San Francisco,
"Be Sure to Wear Flowers
in Your Hair."
Mackenzie Phillips said her papa
John introduced her to drugs
when she was the age of 11
by injecting her with cocaine
like any good dad would.
He was America's papa.
When Mackenzie was
getting married in 1979,
John apparently didn't want
to give away the bride.
Instead, he gave her
drugs and alcohol
the night before the ceremony.
Mackenzie said this
is when she was first
raped by her father
in a hotel room
when she was 18 while passed
out after a drug binge.
He should have written
a song about it.
"Partying with Dad.
Be Sure to Wear
a Chastity Belt."
Here's CNN's Larry King
interviewing Mackenzie.
All I remember is arriving
in the room, getting high.
I was in the act of
having sex with my father.
LARRY KING: What did you think?
What did I think?
I thought, how did this happen?
How did I end up here?
[MUSIC PLAYING] All
the leaves are brown
All the leaves are brown
And the sky is gray
And the sky is gray
And I'm screwing my daughter

NARRATOR: Mackenzie said
she then had a, quote,
"consensual incestuous
relationship with her dad for 10
years, ending it only
when she got pregnant,
fearing the baby was
his, and aborted it."
Still, for a while
there, it must
have been very
exciting for Papa John
that his daughter might
be having his child
and grandchild at the same time.
But let's get back to that
idyllic 1960s music scene in Los
Angeles.
The third biggest Laurel
Canyon drug orgy party host,
Frank Zappa, had grown
up next to the MK-Ultra
collaborating Edgewood
Arsenal complex,
where his father worked
in US chemical warfare
research and human mind
control experimentation.
Pamela Des Barres, who wrote
the popular groupie memoir,
With the Band, told rock
historian Barney Hoskyns
about attending these Laurel
Canyon sex and drug parties.
Des Barres said Rockefeller
cousin Vito Paulekas and Zappa
never got high.
They were both ringmasters who
always wanted to be in control.
So were the teen girl
orgies only for fun,
drugging celebrities to promote
drugs to the world, blackmail
or all of the above?
US intelligence
appeared to also use it
for creating drugged
and traumatized victim
assets for future operations
to be discussed more later.
By 1970, Eric
Burdon & the Animals
had moved into Frank Zappa's
party house called the Log
Cabin.
Dave McGowan said that "The
cabin had by then become
a mandatory stop for all
visiting British invasion
bands," a possible CIA and
British Tavistock Institute
strategy appeared of introducing
British bands to acid and other
drugs.
This is further supported by the
fact that in the early to mid
1960s, several military officers
manipulated writer Ken Kesey
to form a group called the Merry
Pranksters in the San Francisco
Bay area.
The pranksters toured
the US and Canada
promoting acid, speed and other
drugs in their psychedelic bus.
They also held dozens
of acid festivals
attended by CIA scientists
and others in US intelligence.
People then influenced the
Beatles to make the Magical
Mystery Tour album and The Who
to write their hit song "Magic
Bus," promoting acid.
Rock talk radio
host Allan Handelman
said Frank Zappa ended
up leaking some of this,
saying the CIA was giving
acid to the hippies.
I remember Frank Zappa telling
me one of my first interviews
that the CIA was giving out the
LSD to hippies in San Francisco,
or I guess the Bay Area back
in the '60s, at the same time,
busting them at night.
[ELECTROCULT CIRCUS, "OH NO
(KEEP IT ALIVE)"] Your mind was

As noted, Charlie
Manson and his family
attended many of these Laurel
Canyon parties starting in 1968.
Dave McGowan,
particularly pointed out
how the actions of Rockefeller
cousin Vito Paulekas
matched that of Manson.
Vito and Charlie's
flock both adopted
nicknames to aid in the
depersonalization process,
and both were
introducing sexuality
at a very young age in live
sex shows for his followers.
And finally, Vito encouraged
his followers to drug themselves
while he himself
largely abstained,
helping him to maintain
control while Manson
limited his own drug intake
for the very same reason.
The particular importance of
these parallel actions covered
in McGowens book came in 2019.
That year, Little,
Brown and Company
published Chaos, Charles Manson,
the CIA, and the Secret History
of the Sixties.
Award winning investigative
reporter Tom O'Neil
spent 20 years turning a feature
article assignment for Premiere
magazine into the book Chaos.
The name chaos came from a CIA
program that overlapped the CIAs
MK-Ultra program.
It could also apply to what
too much acid would cause
in millions of people's brains.
Manson committed crimes
that had him end up
in prison in San Francisco
with a 1967 release.
Charlie Manson left
his heart and brain
in San Francisco
or a CIA MK-Ultra
doctor shaped them there.
One CIA whistleblower called the
1967 Haight-Ashbury neighborhood
of San Fran, a "human
guinea pig farm."
And author Tom O'Neil
described how MK-Ultra--
--Dr. Lewis Jolyon
Jolly West made
Charlie and his
bizarrely instant family
of teen runaway girls
his guinea pigs.
Chaos author Tom
O'Neil's biggest coup
was obtaining the letters
between Dr. Jolly West
and his CIA handler, MK-Ultra
Director Sidney Gottlieb.
Here's author O'Neill
telling interviewer Joe Rogan
about the letters between Dr.
Jolly West and MK-Ultra Director
Gottlieb.
And in the case of Jolly West,
he was first in the air force,
and then he was in
university settings.
And in one of his
letters to Gottlieb
asking for more funding.
So these people are
getting LSD, which
is a pretty powerful drug
and other drugs he was using,
and he was hypnotizing
them in some
of-- many of his experiments
without their knowledge.
NARRATOR: By 1967, Jolly West
started the Haight-Ashbury
Project, particularly
working out
of the Haight-Ashbury
free medical clinic
HAFMC, where its director,
David Smith, gave him an office.
With his family of
young teen girls in tow,
Manson became a
mainstay at the HAFMC,
attending weekly and some
weeks when he appeared
at the clinic every day.
After interviewing
author Tom O'Neil,
Joe Rogan interviewed
former CIA agent Mike Baker
about some of
O'Neill's information
on MK-Ultra and the
Haight-Ashbury free medical
clinic.
They also discuss Manson's
early release from jail and use
of CIA tactics.
Yeah, working at the
Haight-Ashbury free medical
clinic, that's where Manson
would go along with some of his
followers.
And they were part of a study.
And they were, I'm sure,
getting their LSD from there.
Do you know that clinic
closed down about four months
after Tom's book came out?
Been open for over 50 years.
It's crazy.
What are the odds?
Yeah, I know.
And he also seem to employ the
same techniques that apparently
the CIA had employed when
they had done experiments
on prisoners.
NARRATOR: This large family of
teen girls and some guys such
as a 13-year-old girl sodomized
by Manson while the others
watched, lived for over two
years with him with no known
wages.
Yet they somehow afforded
a large stockpile of guns.
Author O'Neal said they further
followed the MK-Ultra practices
as they sought out
impressionable young men,
invited them to an all
girl orgy and offered them
a plethora of narcotics,
including marijuana
quietly spiked with LSD.
It was a technique they'd
refined into an art form.
The Manson girls also likely
made Dr. West jollier.
Judge Louis Waschneck
confirmed that Manson
must have been working for
the government as an informant
or an agent because someone
wanted him out of jail doing
what he was doing.
By December of 1967,
the Manson family
had moved to Los
Angeles, where they soon
spent six months living at the
foot of Rustic Canyon in Beach
Boys drummer Dennis
Wilson's house as Manson
and the family set
up shop in his home.
Manson commanded the girls to
service the men in every way.
Through Wilson,
Manson fraternized
with some of the
biggest names in music,
copying MK-Ultra's agenda
of introducing acid
to musicians there.
And at Laurel Canyon
parties, Manson
transported his family
of girls in his large bus
to these parties, distributing
acid and supplying
young girls for the orgies.
Chaos author Tom
O'Neil also talked
with forensic psychologist
and law professor Alan
Scheflin regarding Manson.
O'Neill asked Scheflin, who
had written a book on MK-Ultra,
if Manson was an MK-Ultra
experiment gone wrong.
No, he said, an MK-Ultra
experiment gone right.
[MUSIC PLAYING] I wish they all
could be Manson family girls
I wish they all could
be Manson family girls
In 1968, Manson also converted
a one time Christian minister.
Dean Moorhouse went from working
as a Christian minister to being
a Manson family acid dealer.
A seamless transition.
By August of 1968, the
Beach Boys' Dennis Wilson
decided to force the Manson
family out of his home
after six months of
constant parties.
The Manson family then
moved to the Spahn Ranch
that had been the site
of a large movie set
for cowboy westerns.
By February of 1969, famed
movie director Roman Polanski
and his actress
wife, Sharon Tate,
were renting a home on Cielo
Drive in the Hollywood Hills.
Also, by early 1969
in LA, Sharon Tate
turned to activist organizing.
Tom O'Neil said "the Tate
house by then had become a high
profile gathering place for
liberal Hollywood, among others,
for actors Jane Fonda, Cass
Elliot, and Warren Beatty,
all three of whom were
under FBI Surveillance."
This group also
included coffee heiress
Abigail Folger, actors Jean
Seberg, and Donald Sutherland.
O'Neil added, "Many in the
Polanski-Tate crowd belonged
to the White Panther Party,
explicit allies of the Black
Panthers."
They also belonged to "The
peace and Freedom Party
of California."
This FBI memorandum, dated
11/29/68 revealed that
the FBI'S counterintelligence
program in the Los Angeles
office said an anonymous letter
is being prepared for Bureau
approval to be sent to a leader
of the Peace and Freedom Party,
PFP--
--in which it is set forth that
the BPP has made statements
in closed meetings that when
the armed rebellion comes,
the whites and the PFP will
be lined up against the wall
with the rest of the whites.
Here's interviewer Joe Rogan
discussing Tom O'Neill's book
Chaos, reviewing at least one
CIA asset in the Manson family,
Reeve Whitson, who surely helped
guide Manson and the family
in their actions
as they attempted
to terrify leftist Hollywood
away from this activism.
In and around the Spahn
Ranch and in around the family
and this one guy, Reeve
Whitson, who was a spook
and unfortunately was dead
by the time I started--
For people who don't
know, spook is CIA.
Yeah.
NARRATOR: O'Neill stated
that the FBI wanted
to scare white leftists
away from supporting
the Panthers in falsely
portraying that even
leftists were in the
Panthers crosshairs.
In less than nine months,
in early August 1969, Manson
family members Tex Watson
and a bunch of girls
killed Sharon Tate, Abigail
Folger and several others
who were in the house.
They stabbed Tate many times
in her eight month pregnant
stomach.
O'Neil particularly
noted the importance
of this matching the FBIs
fake information in its letter
about the white PFP activists.
He said, "Manson's followers
lined up for denizens of liberal
Hollywood in Roman Polanski's
home and cut them to pieces,"
leaving slogans in Tate's blood
to implicate the Black Panthers
such as pig.
That was the same thing
Chaos and COINTELPRO
were trying to do.
They were trying to damage
the youth revolution.
NARRATOR: Another
set of murders,
public pressure and various
individuals in law enforcement
finally had the Manson
family arrested, charged
and convicted in court by 1971.
During the trial, Manson put a
swastika tattoo on his forehead.
He just couldn't help himself.
All the press coverage should
have ended the Manson family
project of freaks, but US
intelligence apparently
wasn't quite done with them.
By 1975, Richard Nixon had
resigned after the Watergate
scandal, and his vice
president, Gerald Ford,
had assumed the presidency.
Oligarch Nelson
Rocky Rockefeller
wormed his way into
the White House
without all the
onerous campaigning,
getting himself picked
as vice president
with his wife Happy in tow.
Only one step away
from the presidency,
Rocky was salivating.
He'd already assisted Eisenhower
in psychological operations
involving Nazi propaganda.
Since his family
had helped cover up
$1 million transfers from
the CIA via the Rockefeller
Foundation for mind
control experiments,
Rocky seemed to itch
for some payback.
On September 5th of 1975, Manson
family member Squeaky Fromme got
right next to President Ford,
took out a gun and pulled
the trigger.
But a security guard said
he lunged for the gun
and got his thumb between the
hammer of the gun and the firing
pin, stopping the assassination.
US intelligence got a
second chance 17 days later
when FBI paid Sarah Jane Moore
took a shot at President Ford,
again, to no avail.
It's not easy to find
good help these days.
[ELECTROCULT CIRCUS,
"OH NO (KEEP IT ALICE)"]
Keep it alive
Ah keep it alive
Back in the 1960s, while the
Manson family was growing,
atop anti-war group the Students
for a Democratic Society,
or SDS, gained thousands more
members each month throughout
the decade.
SDS did increasingly good
educating and mobilizing around
civil rights and anti-war work,
growing from several dozen
at the start to about
100,000 members in 1969.
Columbia University
SDS leader Mark Rudd
had led the first anti-war
college building takeover
at Columbia in 1968, inspiring
many college building takeovers
nationwide.
After the building
takeover, Mark Rudd
called his father to
tell him what happened.
"We took a building,
he told his father.
Well, give it back,
dad responded."
Fathers are so practical.
Northwestern law student
Bernardine Dohrn had risen up
into the SDS
inter-organizational secretary
position by the summer of 1968
due to her great organizing work
through the 1960s.
SDS also elected Mike Klonsky
as the National office leader
that year, putting him and
Dohrn in two of the top three
positions.
Two other SDS activists,
University of Michigan SDS
leaders Bill Ayers
and Diana Oughton
decided to spend a good portion
of that 1968 summer volunteering
at the Chicago office.
These two had
interesting backgrounds,
partly because they both came
from two of America's wealthiest
families.
Some journalists wrote a sad but
Pulitzer Prize winning series
about Diana Oughton,
published in late 1970.
"One of Diana's great
grandfathers founded the Boy
Scouts of America," an
organization that pledged its
duty to God and country.
At least 90,000 boys failed to
show their respect when they
grew up--
--and filed sex abuse
claims, bankrupting
that fine organization
where young boys could
win merit badges for swimming,
camping, first aid and anal sex.
Diana Oughton went from a
Nixon supporting liberal
hating Republican
who ardently defended
her father's ownership of
tenant farms in Alabama
and spent weekends with
the Rockefeller's in 1960
to a radical leftist in 1968.
In graduate school at the
University of Michigan,
she met Bill Ayers, the son
of Commonwealth Edison Company
Chairman and CEO Tom Ayers.
Commonwealth Edison provides
electricity to Chicago
and most of Northern Illinois.
It has reported revenues of $15
billion annually in the 21st
century.
Tom Ayers also served on the
boards of Sears, Zenith defense
contractor General Dynamics,
First National Bank, the Chicago
Cubs and the Tribune
Company, one of the nation's
leading multi-media companies.
Bill Ayers was also a leader
of Michigan SDS and influenced
Oughton to join SDS, as
well as to take psychedelics
in early 1968.
In June of 1968, SDS held
their national convention
in nearby East
Lansing, Michigan.
And Bill Ayers led Diana
Oughton to the convention
and got close with new SDS
national office leaders
Mike Klonsky and
Bernardine Dohrn.
That summer, Ayers and
Oughton moved to Chicago
to do volunteer work
in the national office.
The two had developed
a taste for acid rock
and took LSD, sometimes
with another couple.
Was that other acid taking
couple Klonsky and Dohrn?
The bizarrely divisive behavior
and associations of Bill Ayers,
along with the more
emotionally erratic behavior
of Bernardine Dohrn over the
next 12 months, suggests it was.
The Pulitzer Prize winning
article on Oughton and Ayers
stated that the behind the
scenes leader of the Jesse James
Gang "was a mysterious
31-year-old man named Jim Mellen
who appeared out of nowhere.
No one knew where he
had gone to school
or why he came to the
University of Michigan.
And he was the major
intellectual force
behind the gang.
A rumor began circulating among
his critics that Mellen was
an agent provocateur sent by
the FBI or Central Intelligence
Agency to destroy SDS and the
radical movement in Michigan."
Mellen and Ayers'
Jesse James Gang
held peaceful methods
of reform in contempt
despite never having tried
peaceful, anti-racist or
anti-war activism that other
SDS action-oriented factions had
conducted before
changing strategies.
They urged violent
confrontations,
disrupted SDS meetings, and
made vicious personal attacks
on their opponents,
leading to brawls.
They let it be known that
their opponents were running
the risk of physical beatings.
The Pulitzer Prize winning
journalists said that "Through
psychological warfare, the Jesse
James Gang had split up Michigan
SDS, and the gang captured
the single most important SDS
chapter in Michigan, which
automatically gave them
a powerful voice in the
national organization."
During December
1968, Bill and Diana
both began to emerge as
leaders in the national SDS
at a conference held in Ann
Arbor, Michigan, at that event,
they had Jim Mellen and their 40
members of the Jesse James Gang
with them to help eventually
duplicate their Michigan SDS
achievement on the
national organization.
Activists Abbie Hoffman and
Jerry Rubin's SDS aligned
Yippies group was also
infiltrated and manipulated
by undercover agents
who pushed acid on them.
While Abbie Hoffman was
brilliant and charismatic,
the acid likely led him--
--and Jerry Rubin to lose some
perspective, allowing many spies
to infiltrate their group, such
as FBI paid spy George Demmerle.
Acid Dreams writer Martin Lee
noted how George "Prince Crazy
Demmerle wore weird
costumes, smoked a lot of pot
and was a member of the
YIP steering committee.
He also served as Abbie
Hoffman's bodyguard."
Radical anti-war activist Jane
Alpert knew George demmerle well
as he had enticed her into
a bombing plot and arrest
in the late 1960s.
In her memoir, Alpert said
demmerle founded the Crazies
inside the Yippies.
Demmerle was often seen
wearing a purple cape, as well
as a lavender jeweled shirt
and a Dayglo pink helmet
with two feathered
dusters on top.
More importantly, Acid
Dreams writer Martin Lee
noted how George Demmerle worked
to initiate more activists
into taking acid--
--saying some SDS "leaders
were initially reluctant
to experiment with
psychedelic drugs."
"Mark Rudd, who had been
chairman of the Action Faction
at the Columbia
University chapter of SDS,
declined numerous offers to
turn on with the Crazies."
He did so on the
grounds that it would
interfere with his politics.
Demmerle and the Crazies
chided Rudd and his cohorts
for being straight laced.
But Rudd's crowd was
not to be persuaded.
Finally, the Crazies
put acid in the wine
at a party Rudd's group was
having and convinced them
to keep taking acid.
Apparently, when tripping,
capes, feather dusters
and day-glo can be
very convincing.
[ELECTROCULT CIRCUS, "ANTHILLS"]
Violence awakens the spirit
of repossessed minds
By the early summer of 1969,
suspected CIA agent Jim Mellen
and his close Michigan
SDS associate Bill Ayers
suggested a new
national group be formed
within the SDS organization.
Mellen and Ayers wrote an essay
they called "The weathermen
manifesto."
The statement was 25,000 words.
CIA think-tank writers
sure can be long winded.
Mellen and Ayers then got
a committee of nine others
to sign off on it, including
Karen Ashley, Jeff Jones,
Mark Rudd, Steve
Tappis, Bernardine Dohrn
and John Jacobs,
Jingleheimer Schmidt.
A national SDS convention was
held in June of 1969 in Chicago.
According to top SDS
historian Kirkpatrick Sale,
there was an estimated 80,000
to 100,000 members in the group
in that last 12 months and 350
to 400 chapters nationwide.
It appeared that when the Jim
Mellen and Bill Ayers dominated
Michigan chapter gained
more influence nationally
in that 12 months, along with
the infiltrated, progressive
labor affiliated faction
of SDS, membership
started to decrease for
the first time in 1969.
The June National Convention
started with much press coverage
and fanfare.
Here's some media
interviewing two
of the three top SDS leaders,
Mike Klonsky and Bernardine
Dohrn.
This is in finding out
about the organization.
At SDS, we've always been
quite willing to talk--
Yeah, we'll talk about
socialism anywhere,
in the streets or in the
senate, anywhere, you know.
[LAUGHTER]
NARRATOR: Here, Dohrn appears
to still have a sense of humor,
making fun of a
reporter's question
by checking for communists in
her co-leader Mike Clancy's
jacket.
REPORTER: Is there a communist
faction making a big power
play for SDS--
I don't know.
Is there any
communist back here?
[CHEERING]
I guess there--
NARRATOR: Reports had Bernardine
Dohrn taking acid recreationally
by at least 1969, but more
likely with Bill Ayers
and Diana Oughton in
the summer of 1968.
Dohrn and others in
her Weathermen faction
who were dropping acid appeared
increasingly less emotionally
stable throughout the year.
An overview of 46 existing
LSD studies done in 1968
revealed that during
LSD trips, people
are vulnerable, hyper
suggestible and emotionally
labile.
A surprisingly large
percentage of LSD users
also experience chronic
anxiety, acute panic states
and antisocial
behavior for weeks,
months after their LSD use.
Did Bill Ayers introduce acid
in 1968 for these reasons?
Did he and Jim Mellen, as the
writers of their Weathermen
group manifesto, along
with their associates,
continue to influence Dohrn?
The events of this SDS
convention suggest so.
Evidence later came out
that US intelligence
had many infiltrators among
the hundreds of students
from a different faction,
progressive labor, who
were at the convention.
In May of 1969,
the New York Times,
revealing more than they
would in the new Millennium,
said that the FBI has
undercover agents and informers
inside almost every SDS chapter.
At the 1969 SDS
National Convention
that was closed off
to mainstream media,
arguments erupted
between the two factions
over the first two days.
The Weathermen aligned
faction had a Black Panther
read a purported letter from
Panther National Chairman Bobby
Seale denouncing
progressive labor
unless they followed a true
Marxist-Leninist ideology or SDS
will be judged by the
company they keep.
Progressive labor
attendees started
chanting, smash redbaiting,
smash redbaiting.
The Weathermen chanted, power to
the people, power to the people.
It was a chant war.
Bernardine Dohrn stood as the
guarded queen of the Weathermen
and an affiliated
faction and Fred Gordon
as the king of
progressive labor.
Despite her less
acid damaged partner,
Mike Klonsky,
trying to stop her,
queen Dohrn vehemently
led her faction
to march out of the
huge gymnasium in which
the convention was held.
A little impulsiveness
went a long way
as it split SDS up
into two organizations.
As author Erin Leonard wrote
in Truthout magazine in August
of 1969, at least one
FBI document reported US
intelligence's success in that
"SDS as the mainstay of the New
Left Movement is now seriously
divided, and to this extent,
weakened."
It further added that the
Weathermen "National Office
faction is gradually being
forced into a position
of militant extremism, which
hopefully will isolate it from
other elements of the
libertarian community
and eventuate its complete
discrediting in the eyes
of the American public."

Jacob Jingleheimer Schmidt
His name is our name too
When SDS was taken out the
people will always shout

La-la-la-la-la-la-la-la
John--
The new acid addled
Weatherman did have their fun.
A number of the guys and
women seemed to the orgies
they started having that year.
But even sympathetic historians
such as Kirkpatrick Sale
detailed how the judgment
of Weather leaders
increasingly decreased in
the second half of 1969.
First, this new faction elected
new national SDS leaders.
Surprise, surprise, who
ends up in the new split
leadership of SDS but Jesse
James Gang leader Bill
Ayers and the now acid
addled Mark Rudd with him.
Suspected spy Bill Ayers
as a leader in the largest
anti-war organization
with Bill's ability
to sabotage the group's
anti-war efforts,
it's a wonder if Tom Ayers'
General Dynamics stock
value went up.
Then the Weathermen
reportedly wanted
to spark whites to join together
in revolutionary solidarity
with people of color, organizing
a Chicago protest in October
they first called Bringing
the War Home and later called,
the Days of Rage.
They hoped for at least a few
thousand bat swinging protesters
to March through Chicago
and fight the police.
Around 1968, Bernardine
Dohrn and Mike Klonsky
worked with Illinois Black
Panther Party leader Fred
Hampton, who organized
in Chicago, where
SDS had their national office.
But only Klonsky and
his R-Y-M2 or RYM2
stayed close with Hampton.
Here's Bill Ayers in 1969
announcing the Weathermen's
Chicago protests in solidarity
with the Black Panthers
despite that the Black Panthers
weren't in solidarity with him.
This fall in Chicago, we will
lead massive demonstrations
against the war in support
of the Black Panther Party
and in solidarity with
all political prisoners.
NARRATOR: Here's Fred
Hampton interviewed
by ABC News in early
October of 1969
regarding the Weathermen's
planned Chicago
action and the new Ayers led
SDS versus Mike Klonsky's R-Y-M2
or RYM2 group.
REPORTER: Fred, where does
the Black Panther Party
stand concerning the
Weathermen, the SDS?
We stand way back from
the SDS, and the Weathermen
because we believe that the
Weatherman action is two action.
It's RYM2 and Weatherman.
We think this-- could call
them both national action.
We think that RYM2
is national action
and Weatherman is
national reaction.
Its characteristic
in that its leaders
take people into
situations where
the people can be massacred,
and they call that revolution.
And it's nothing
but child's play.
It's folly.
And it's criminal because
people can be hurt.
We think these people may be
sincere, but they're misguided.
They're muddle heads, and
they're scatterbrains.
NARRATOR: Despite
much organizing,
the days of rage only drew a
couple hundred protesters tops.
They create a multi-sport
affair wearing football helmets
and carrying Louisville Slugger
bats to smash car windows
and store windows before
mostly ending up getting
beaten up by cops and jailed.
Regarding the Chicago
action militant leaders,
a picture of the
Weathermen marching
in the Chicago days of rage
showed Jim Mellen and Bill Ayers
at the front.
Mellen was the other highly
suspected undercover agent.
Kirkpatrick Sale noted that
General Dynamics board chair
billionaire Tom Ayers "generous
allowances in later years,
Bill Ayers averred, were used
to finance the revolution."
All power to the people.
This revolutionary
anti-war message
was brought to you
by General Dynamics.
Dropping their
payload on the people.
While the Weathermen had based
their name on the Bob Dylan
lyric, you don't
need a weatherman
to know which way the wind
blows, critics countered,
you don't need a rectal
thermometer to know
who the assholes are.
The acid erosion
of judgment peaked
at the Weatherman's December
1969 National War Council,
or Wargasm Conference,
when Bernardine Dohrn
gave an ecstatic speech about
the Charles Manson gang.
Dohrn exclaimed, "they
even shoved a fork
in the pregnant
victim's stomach.
Wild."
It was an acid flipped
version of a Me Too speech.
Another fun highlight of that
conference was Rudd saying,
"It must be a really wonderful
feeling to kill a pig,"
and someone screaming out later,
"All white babies are pigs."
Kirkpatrick Sale said
that sometime around 1970,
the Weathermen linked half of
SDS apparently decided to end
the Students for a
Democratic Society,
and the once 100,000 strong
anti-war organization
effectively disbanded
by the end of that year.
Sale also said that some
Weathermen "tried to stop using
all drugs."
And some apologized
for praising Manson,
including Bernardine Dohrn.
The Weathermen also
changed their name
to the Weather Underground
for feminist reasons
and joined other activists who
had started bombing institutions
involved in the Vietnam War and
working against civil rights.
Estimates of student linked
bombings and attempts ranged
from Kirkpatrick Sale's
estimate of roughly one a day
to the government's
division of alcohol,
tobacco and firearms reporting
at least 5,000 bombings
and attempts for about 20
a day in the 1969 to 1970,
September to June school year.
The 1970 version of
Fox News probably
said some teachers were giving
extra credit for bombings.
It should be kept
in mind that this
was in reaction to
America's war in Vietnam
killing over 2 million people,
including several hundred
thousand young Americans.
Bill Stout narrates.
There were warning
calls to the police
who got a janitor
out of the building
just before the explosions.
Across the nation between
January of last year and April
of this year, a total of 4,330
bombings have been reported.
NARRATOR: The
bombings reportedly
had about half a dozen
innocent bystander casualties,
including three Weather
Underground members.
Weathermen Cathy
Wilkerson's father
owned a house in the
Greenwich Village neighborhood
of New York City.
The four story building
got blown to rubble
when one of the bombs the
radicals were assembling
accidentally got detonated.
The explosion also blew
out six floors of windows
across the street
early in the morning.
Actor Dustin Hoffman's wife
and Henry Fonda's ex-wife,
who lived nearby, helped naked
Kathy Wilkerson and Kathy
Boudin get out of the
rubble and into clothes.
Dustin Hoffman can be seen here
saving figures in a painting.
Wilkerson, Boudin
and three others
escaped, while Weather
Underground members Ted Gold,
Terry Robbins and Diana
Oughton were blown up
beyond initial recognition.
Between 1968 and 1971, students
took over many college buildings
with protests at 883 campuses--
--and authorities
suspending classes
on 97 campuses in protest
of the Vietnam War.
The Revolutionary
Youth Movement,
or RYM joined with other groups
in civil disobedience that
closed down Washington D.C. and
led to the largest mass arrest
in American history
at 7,000 1971.
Half a million
protested in Washington,
while another 25,000 blocked
bridges and roads throughout DC.
Between that and the
bombings, activists
helped end the war by 1975.
[MUSIC PLAYING]
Millions of radicalized youth
nationwide and worldwide
posed a dangerous threat
to the powers that be.
The oligarchs and
their CIA spooks
apparently decided it was time
to ramp up the acid distribution
to divert them and hurt their
competency as much as possible.
British police
inspector Dick Lee
investigated the Mellon
Hitchcock family run brotherhood
of eternal love
network in Europe.
He found them behind over
100 million doses of LSD
manufactured and sold
in Britain alone.
Detective Lee also
said Ronald Stark was
a senior brotherhood figure.
As writer Martin Lee
explained, an Italian judge
found that Ron Stark
worked for the CIA.
Stark was the biggest
source of underground acid
at one time in the world.
And he ends up being released
from jail in Italy after
a certain point-- under the
most strange circumstances where
a judge says that Ronald
Stark, the evidence shows,
has been an agent of the US
secret services from the 1960s
on.
Therefore, we cannot
keep him in jail.

Back in 1969, musicians such as
John Lennon and Rolling Stones'
guitarist Keith
Richards had not only
been inadvertently
promoting acid,
they had also begun
using heroin and thus,
popularizing that drug, too.
In the fall of
2018, a journalist
who was friends with
John Lennon and Yoko Ono
came out with a
biography where he said,
Yoko introduced John to heroin.
Like suspected undercover agent
Bill Ayers' extremely wealthy
father, Yoko Ono's parents
were conservative aristocrats.
She attended Japan's
most exclusive schools.
The question
remains, was Yoko Ono
part of a Western
intelligence plan
to manipulate John
Lennon to take heroin
for promoting it to the
young anti-war generation?
[ELECTROCULT CIRCUS, "T.M.D."]
Rolling Stone
publisher Jann Wenner
interviewed John Lennon
about LSD trips hurting him,
leading to his stopping
the use of it by 1967.
JOHN LENNON: Oh, yeah.
Had many.
Jesus Christ.
You know, I stopped taking
it because of that, you know.
I mean, I just--
YOKO ONO: Couldn't stand--
JOHN LENNON: Couldn't stand it.
And I destroyed
myself, you know.
And I was slowly pulling myself
together after Maharishi,
you know.
Bit by bit over a
two year period.
And I didn't believe I
could do anything, you know.
NARRATOR: Lennon said that his
former publicist from 1964,
Derek Taylor, had come back to
be his publicist again from 1968
to 1970.
Taylor convinced
Lennon to trip again.
JOHN LENNON: And Derek
tripped me out at his house
after he'd got back from LA.
He said, it's all-- you know.
And he sort of said,
you're all right.
NARRATOR: So what else is
known about Derek Taylor?
This New York
Times obituary said
that besides being
the Beatles' press
spokesman for
several years, Taylor
was also the publicist for
David van Cortland Crosby's
band, the Byrds, who got
Lennon tripping his second time
in August of 1965.
Furthermore, Taylor was the
publicist for the Beach Boys,
including Dennis Wilson, who
housed the Manson CIA front
family for six months.
And finally, Taylor further
worked as the publicist
for the Mamas--
--and the Papas with Papa John
Phillips, the former Naval
officer turned daughter raping,
Laurel Canyon sex party drug
pusher for the stars.
In line with the drug pushing
musicians he represented,
Derek Taylor promoted
acid in Los Angeles
and nationally through a top LA
music newspaper, the KRLA Beat
from 1965 to 1968.
Under Taylor, that nationally
influential newspaper
and its readers shifted
toward the psychedelic.
And finally, Lennon had his
dutiful partner, Yoko Ono,
come in and confirm that he
should be tripping again.
JOHN LENNON: And the next
week, I went down with Yoko,
and we tripped out again.
And she filled me completely
to realize that I was me,
and it's all right, you know?
NARRATOR: So Yoko Ono helped
Derek Taylor influence Lennon
to take acid again after
his two year hiatus out
of fear of losing his mind.
Having Lennon trip again
also likely helped Yoko
when she introduced
him to heroin.
This all fits the pattern
of known undercover agents,
such as Ron Stark
and Timothy Leary,
as well as suspected undercover
agents such as Weatherman Bill
Ayers and Jim Melen.
JOHN LENNON: Yeah, yeah.
And throwing up, I just threw
up for hours till I went on.
I needed--
JANN WENNER: Would you
still be that nervous
if you're in public?
JOHN LENNON: Always that
nervous, you know, but I don't
think I'll do much appearing.
It's not worth the
strain, you know.
I don't want to perform
too much for people.
NARRATOR: Lennon also
saw his judgment hurt
and that he considered
trepanning or drilling
a hole in his skull to
purportedly expand his mind.
Lennon likely got the
idea from Amanda Fielding,
the Countess of
[INAUDIBLE] in 1965,
someone spiked the 22-year-old
Fielding's coffee with a massive
dose of LSD, which
nearly broke her.
By 27 in 1970, Countess
Fielding had fried her brain so
thoroughly that she
filmed herself drilling
a hole in her skull,
a procedure called
trepanning or trepanation.
Skull driller Fielding
then ran for parliament
with the slogan,
trepanation for the nation.
Catchy.
As if brain damage
is contagious.
Here's comedian
Bill Burr commenting
on what he thought Yoko Ono
added to one of John Lennon's
live musical performances with
rock and roll pioneer Chuck
Berry.
Burr first mimicked Yoko
Ono's bizarre screeching chant
in the middle of this
musical performance
on the Mike Douglas show.
Burr further commented on Chuck
Berry's wide eyed reaction
to Ono's vocal addition
to the performance.
BILL BURR: So John
Lennon, Chuck Berry.
Two of the greats of
all time, harmonizing,
singing this hit from the 1950s.
That's what this moment's about.
And Yoko, in the
middle of it can't
handle that she's not
getting any shine.
She takes the fucking
microphone out of the stand,
starts playing the Bongo.
And as they're singing, you
know, go, go, Johnny, go,
whatever, she picks up the
mic, and I swear to God goes,
ieeaayy.
Some fucking crazy shit.
And you see Chuck Berry's
eyes fucking open as wide
as they are.
And it's that fucking look.
[MUSIC PLAYING] Spies told
Yoko to marry that man
So they could push drugs
through the leader of the band
They knew John and
drugs would be in lights
Saying Johnny B. bad tonight
Go, go, Johnny, go, go
Johnny B. bad
NARRATOR: After losing control
over the Golden Triangle
of heroin with the end
of the Vietnam War,
the CIA found a new opium haven,
the Golden Crescent of heroin
around Iran, Pakistan
and Afghanistan.
The CIA funded the anti-Soviet
mujahideen Muslim Brotherhood
there, and they started
trafficking out heroin
from 1979 onwards.
Muslim Brotherhood
apparently means
fake Muslim mercenaries
in spook speak.
Reporters Elizabeth
Gould and Paul Fitzgerald
were experts on Afghanistan
for PBS and CBS News.
Paul Jay of the
Real News Network
talked with these reporters
about American policies
to manipulate the Soviet union,
as well as US intelligence
work with Pakistan intelligence
on cross border trafficking
into Afghanistan.
The US policy is to induce
the Soviets into Afghanistan
or at least facilitate it.
They certainly succeed.
The whole Pakistan
society starts
to be transformed by these
billions of dollars going--
arms going this way and
drugs coming this way back
into Pakistan.
Eventually, the Russians leave.
Tell us what happens next.
And in fact, Gulbuddin
Hekmatyar and Ahmed Shah Massoud
were two of the main
people who caused
the major destruction in Kabul.
But this was all part of the
buildup that eventually was
presented by 1994 to '96
as an Afghan movement--
--but really was very much part
of the ideological political
process that the Pakistani
ISI military had--
Together with the Saudis,
I think should be added.
ELIZABETH GOULD: Oh, abso--
PATRICK FITZGERALD: Together
with the Saudis but also
the United States was
very much behind it.
NARRATOR: With the supply of
heroin steadily increasing from
the Afghanistan area throughout
the 1980s and into the early
1990s, the CIA needed to figure
out how to increase the demand.
They appeared to psychologically
profile many musicians
and saw one rising
star who fit the bill.
Kurt Cobain.
Cobain, who ended up
being dubbed the John
Lennon of his generation, had
a chronic, painful stomach
problem.
He had already tried
many medicines that
didn't work for him
before trying heroin,
though just a few
times before he
met Courtney Love according
to Cobain's old friend
Alice Wheeler.
Wheeler went on to say, Courtney
Love "definitely used heroin
as a lure to control him.
She's very
sophisticated that way.
It was in her best interest
for Kurt to form a habit."
It was also in the
CIAs best interest
to get Kurt Cobain to
inadvertently promote heroin,
as the CIA appeared
to do in manipulating
John Lennon to
take acid and then
heroin with Yoko Ono's help.
This brings up the
question, was Courtney Love
the Yoko Ono of her generation?
What was Courtney
Love's history that
suggests her direct
or indirect CIA work?
Courtney Love's
mother, Linda Carroll,
reported being an
abused, adopted daughter
of extremely wealthy parents.
Courtney Love's biological
dad, Hank Harrison,
said that Carroll--
--and her parents
used their wealth
to wrest sole control
over their daughter.
Harrison and biographers
confirm that Love ended up
in a juvenile detention
facility for some years
up to the age of 13.
After Harrison got her
out, he found that she
had developed a drug addiction.
Award winning
journalist Melissa Rossi
documented how
Harrison also said
Courtney Love was prostituting
herself as a teenager.
For example, when Courtney
stayed with Harrison in Dublin
when she was 17 years old, Proud
dad "Hank said she spent much
of her time in Dublin
hooking on the street."
Rossi also reprinted
the contents
of a letter from
Courtney to a boyfriend
when she was about 20
years old where Courtney
said she prostituted herself
apparently to earn money
to get back to the
boyfriend while working
in a strip club in Taiwan.
How romantic.
Maybe that's a prostitute's
version of a Dear John letter.
This was Courtney's
second time working
as a stripper in
an Asian country
as Rossi noted how
Courtney had previously
worked at strip clubs for
the Japanese mafia at about
15 years old.
Several biographies
have mentioned this.
Rossi said that
Courtney told friends
she had been part of
the white slave trade
while stripping in Japan.
Harrison said Courtney
then visited him
while he was doing research
in Dublin, Ireland,
when she had just turned 17.
There, she also met a new friend
of Harrison's, Steven O'Leary.
In a PDF version of Hank
Harrison's book, Love Kills,
which he offered for free before
his book came out in a paperback
format, Harrison said
that O'Leary later
admitted to being a CIA
agent in a letter he wrote
to Harrison on his deathbed.
In the letter, O'Leary stated
that, "I wasn't a spy per se,
but I had to report to the
American embassy in Dublin
by mail or telephone
once each week."
Harrison had said O'Leary
died in the location and date
verified in this obituary.
Harrison further said that Steve
O'Leary and his brother Kevin
took Courtney to
Liverpool, England.
Courtney Love
biographer Melissa Rossi
noted that Love carried
a thousand hits of acid
to Liverpool.
Love distributed the acid
at various music scenes.
This duplicated MK-Ultra
operations of the 1960s.
Love repeated these behaviors
in Portland, Oregon, Los Angeles
and other music scenes.
INTERVIEWER: OK.
And He was openly told you
that he worked for the CIA?
HANK HARRISON: Later-- he
didn't, at that time, no,
but it was obvious.
But no, at the time,
he did not verbally
tell me that because he was
under oath not to tell me,
of course.
But later on, after he
retired, he told me.
He wrote me a letter,
and I have a letter.
INTERVIEWER: Kevin Leary.
HANK HARRISON: Yes.
INTERVIEWER: When you
mentioned Kevin Leary,
you said, oh, he was
high up in the CIA.
What was his duties in the CIA?
HANK HARRISON: Well, he had
superiority over his brother.
He was-- my daughter came along.
Steve took care of her
for me and got her safely
to London where she was then--
wound up in
Liverpool hanging out
with Adam Ant and
Echo & the Bunnymen.
NARRATOR: Writers Max
Wallace and Ian Halperin
said Courtney Love would claim
that Teardrop Explodes frontman
Julian Cope took her
virginity, but she
has made similar claims about
at least three other rock stars.
The question remains, did
Courtney Love's relationship
with the CIA continue up to the
death of Kurt Cobain and beyond?
It can't be certain that
this is the same Kevin
O'Leary from early in her
life, but Hank Harrison
said he thinks it is.
PAPARAZZI: Guys,
how are you doing?
PAPARAZZI: How are you doing?
PAPARAZZI: --guys dating?
PAPARAZZI: Hey, you
make a great couple.
Courtney--
PAPARAZZI: Courtney,
what did you think
of Kurt Cobain's documentary?
[MUSIC PLAYING] With Courtney
here, it's more dangerous
Now she's killed me
Entertain us
Are we stupid and contagious?
The CIA whores now
Entertain us
Yeah
NARRATOR: The
O'Learys apparently
weren't the only
spies with which
Courtney Love was involved.
Around 2005, the late infamous
teen sex trafficking mogul
Jeffrey Epstein had a
former house manager
named Alfredo Rodriguez.
After Epstein's
arrest, Rodriguez
stole Epstein's black
book from his home
and tried to sell it to one
of the victims law firms
before the firm
reported it to the FBI.
This Rodriguez guy
just has no loyalty.
Nick Bryant, who published
Jeffrey Epstein's black book
in 2005, said Rodriguez circled
key people as potential material
witnesses to crimes
against underage girls.
These included Donald Trump,
Alan Dershowitz, former Israeli
Prime Minister Ehud Barak--
--and as one of the only
famous females, Courtney Love,
among 46 other names circled.
These were 50 circled
names out of hundreds
of names of the world's most
powerful and influential people
that Epstein had
contact information
on in his black book.
In August of 2019, Vicky
Ward, a veteran reporter
for CNN and Vanity Fair,
printed important disclosures
from President Trump's labor
secretary, Alexander Acosta.
The Trump administration
vetted Acosta for his position
when he worked as a US attorney.
Acosta was asked about his
handling of the Epstein case
In Miami in 2007.
Acosta had infamously cut
Epstein a non-prosecution plea
deal that put a hard stop to a
separate federal investigation
for alleged sex crimes with
minors and trafficking.
Alexander Acosta
said he made the deal
because he had been told
to back off, that Epstein
was above his pay grade.
"I was told Epstein belonged
to intelligence and to leave it
alone," he told his interviewers
in the Trump transition who
evidently thought that was a
sufficient answer and went ahead
and hired Acosta.
Apparently among the world's
imperialist minded countries
intelligence agencies,
it's a family affair.
In a recent interview,
former senior executive
for Israel's directorate of
military intelligence Ari
Ben-Menashe stated that he met
Jeffrey Epstein and Ghislaine
Maxwell in the 1980s.
Ben-Menashe said that they
worked for Israel intelligence
as part of a
blackmailing operation.
It was good of Jeffrey Epstein
to document his connections
so well.
It's too bad that most
of the powerful people
able to do something
with that information
were part of those connections.
A mass of accumulated evidence
supports Courtney Love's links
to Kurt Cobain's death, such
as alcoholic Eldon Hoke's claim
of her offering him $50,000 to
kill her husband for filmmaker
Nick Broomfield.
MAN: You did some deal
with Courtney, right?
Yeah.
She offered me $50,000
to whack Kurt Cobain.
MAN: Yeah.
I didn't know quite
what to think.
El Duce had passed
a polygraph test.
NARRATOR: In May
of 2021, The FBI
declassified 10 pages of never
before seen documents relating
to Kurt Cobain's death.
These included
several letters asking
for a homicide investigation.
The FBI gave the same
response to each.
"In order for the FBI to
initiate an investigation of any
complaint we receive,
specific facts must be present
to indicate that a violation
of federal law within
our investigative
jurisdiction has occurred."
The US Attorney's bulletin
states, "Interstate travel
merely triggers
federal jurisdiction.
A defendant need not intend
to travel across state lines
to commit murder for hire.
Instead, a defendant need only
to intend to commit a murder
for hire and in doing so,
travel across state lines."
One of the FBI file
letters from 2003
mentions the Nick Broomfield
film Kurt & Courtney.
As just seen, that film
presented Eldon Hoke
stating that Courtney Love
traveled from Seattle,
Washington to Los
Angeles, California,
conspiring to have
Cobain murdered.
This, along with a mass
of other known evidence--
--such as Cobain
divorcing Love, supports
that the FBI joined the police
in at least purposely ignoring
an investigation
of Courtney Love.
Courtney Loves connection to us.
Intelligence echoes the
connections of John Lennon's
killers to US intelligence.
British lawyer
Fenton Bresler, who
also worked as a
legal correspondent
for England's national
newspaper, the Daily Mail.
Bresler may have just
wanted to get away
from trial law due to
the government making
their barristers wear
these crazy wigs.
In 1989, Fenton Bresler
published his seven year
investigation of Lennon's murder
titled, Who Killed John Lennon?
Bresler concluded that the
CIA used MK-Ultra techniques
involving psycho hypnotic
drugs and hypnosis
to have Chapman murder Lennon.
Veteran British music
writer Phil Strongman
came to the same
conclusions as Bresler.
Strongman only added information
on Lennon's Dakota apartment
building's doorman, whose full
name was Jos Joaquin Sanjens
Perdomo.
Strongman said Perdomo was
listed as a Cuban exile who
was involved in the
Bay of Pigs Invasion
before becoming a CIA hitman.
Bresler and Strongman's
copious amounts of evidence
also exposed CIA
training programs
for local police departments.
They further uncovered that
an Atlanta police officer
trained Chapman in
shooting and provided him
with the more damaging
hollow point bullets
with which Chapman
killed Lennon.
And we know the FBI had
a 300 page file on Lennon.
Much of it remains classified
for national security reasons.
The doorman at the
Dakota that night
was Jos Perdomo, a
veteran of the CIAs botched
Bay of Pigs Invasion, a
professional hitman who
worked closely with convicted
Watergate burglar Frank
Sturgis on the CIAs payroll.
NARRATOR: In 2022, The Onion
provided surprisingly tasteless
satire on the subject.
It announced, in its
American voices section,
that Mark David
Chapman, who is serving
a 20 year to life
sentence for fatally
shooting John Lennon in 1980--
--has been denied parole
for the 12th time,
having sought parole every two
years since 2000 when he was
first eligible.
"What do you think?"
Boutique Clothier
Maria Alpas said.
"Let him out.
What's the worst he
could do, shoot Ringo?
Freelance botanist
Simon Church said,
"Maybe this will teach him to
kill someone less famous next
time."
Weaving instructor
Roy Trinkle said,
"Come on, it was the 1980s.
Everyone was
murdering back then."

Over things we can't change--
The other top music
icon of the 1990s,
rap and film star Tupac Shakur,
had worked with his extended
Black Panther family to decrease
drug dealing nationwide.
Tupac's stepfather,
Mutulu Shakur,
had pioneered the
use of acupuncture
in guiding thousands of
New York City addicts
into recovery at the clinic
he started, Lincoln Detox.
Tupac's mother, Afeni Shakur,
seen here speaking at a rally,
led the Harlem Black
Panthers at one time.
At the age of 18, Tupac was
elected national chairman
of the New African Panthers.
The New African Panthers tried
to replicate the Black Panthers
and was active in eight cities.
After Tupac broke
into music and film,
he became instrumental
in his work
with his Black Panther
extended family
In influencing the
national Bloods and Crips
gangs to call peace
truces, turn on to activism
and stop dealing drugs.
Tupac's mentor and manager,
Watani Tyehimba seen here
wheeling Tupac
into a courthouse,
confirmed that
Tupac only pretended
to be a gangsta in
order to appeal to gangs
and politicize them as part
of his thug life movement.
Tupac had developed
this code of thug life
with his stepfather Mutulu.
Others close to Tupac tell what
they know in the show, Death Row
Chronicles.
The riots led him to his
next evolution as a leader.
And he realized that he had a
responsibility to unite people.
He would play an active role in
bringing the Crips and Bloods
together for discussions
that ultimately
led to a significant
reduction in the hostility.
MAN: And so thug life was an
extension of the Black Panther
10 point platform
as a code of how
people were supposed to behave.
NARRATOR: President
Bush and US intelligence
responded to this
enthusiastically,
assigning a 100 agent, strong
FBI task force in investigating
the Crips and Bloods.
Then police framed and harassed
gang peace truce leaders.
Regarding Tupac, Oakland Police
stopped Tupac for jaywalking,
choked him unconscious
and pounded his head
against the curb.
Then purportedly off
duty Atlanta Police
used a gun stolen from
an evidence locker
with which to shoot at Tupac.
And finally, police detective
whistleblower Russell Poole
stated that the
Death Row Records
label, which Tupac last worked
for, were trafficking drugs.
Filmmaker Nick Broomfield
quoted detective Poole
in his film Biggie
& Tupac, stating
that police working for Death
Row were behind Tupac's murder.
REPORTER: Ex-detective
Poole resigned
after 18 years on
the force when he
was prevented from investigating
fellow police officers whom
he believed to be involved
in the murders of Biggie
Smalls and Tupac Shakur.
Because it was no secret
that Death Row Records
was involved in
drug trafficking.
NARRATOR: Some years after
Detective Russell Poole came out
with this information, disgraced
police officer Greg Kading
was brought out of a
forced early retirement
after getting caught lying
in court to provide cover up
disinformation on this case.
In a A&E's documentary series,
Who Killed Tupac?, Civil rights
attorney Benjamin Crump
interviewed many people involved
in Tupac's life and death.
He interviewed
detective Greg Kading,
who had said that he talked
with a Crip gang member named
Keefe D who was awaiting trial.
Keefe D was facing decades
in prison for major drug
dealing charges.
Kading said that he was
able to have Keefe D say
that he and his nephew,
Orlando Anderson,
killed Tupac in exchange for
leniency in his drug case.
What was the deal that
was offered to Keefe D when
he made these confessions?
Anything that he says, any
self-incriminating statements
can't be used against him.
In exchange, he
would get leniency
on the drug charges
that were pending.
How much leniency did he get?
He was never prosecuted.
Here's Duane Keith
Keefe D Davis displaying
the consistency of his story as
Detective Kading's top witness.
Some Death Row employees had led
Tupac into a scuffle with Keefe
D's nephew, Orlando Anderson, in
a Las Vegas hotel at about 9:00
PM after a Mike Tyson fight
in the MGM Grand Hotel in Las
Vegas.
Keefe D said this led Anderson
to drive with him in a car where
Keefe D gave Anderson the gun
with which he murdered Tupac.
INTERVIEWER: And if I'm
not mistaken, Orlando,
he hurt his shoulder, right?
NARRATOR: Now it
all makes sense.
After scuffle at 9:00 PM,
Orlando went to the hospital
emergency room on his own
and had his right arm put
in a sling.
He then came out of the hospital
and spontaneously found exactly
where Tupac was and carried
out his murder by 11:00 PM.
Here's Chris Rock's
explanation of why he thinks
the government hates rap.
So Tupac was gunned down
on the Las Vegas strip
after a Mike Tyson fight.
Now, how many witnesses do you
need to see some shit before you
arrest somebody?
Shit.
[APPLAUSE]
More people saw Tupac get
shot than the last episode
of Seinfeld.
[LAUGHTER]
NARRATOR: Filmmaker
Nick Broomfield
made an updated version
of his Biggie & Tupac
film 20 years later,
titled Last Man Standing.
In that film, Greg Kading said
that David Mack and Rafael
Perez, notorious for
trafficking drugs
and killing gang members as
part of the infamous Los Angeles
Rampart scandal, never
worked for Death Row Records.
David Mack, the
LAPD officer, never,
ever worked or was
affiliated and associated
with Death Row Records at all.
Neither was Rafael Perez.
Hi, there.
Morning.
Very good of you to see us.
PRESENTER: What makes Kading's
comments about Mack and Perez
look especially weak is that
even police chief Bernard
Parks himself said they
worked for Death Row.
We know that David Mack and
Rafael Perez both work security
in this rap culture
as it relates
to some of these artists.
But we've had--
INTERVIEWER: --death row?
Death row records--
NARRATOR: Greg Kading and the
powerful people behind him
must have regretted not getting
to offer Chief Parks anything
big before this
interview for Parks
to give a different
response here.
Award winning Las Vegas Sun
crime reporter Cathy Scott,
who wrote two books
discussing Tupac's murder,
said that "It had been widely
publicized that Tupac was under
surveillance by the FBI at the
time of his fatal shooting"
in Las Vegas in 1996.
Tupac's uncle, Jamal Joseph,
a former Harlem Black Panther
with Tupac's mom,
became chairman
of the Columbia University
Film Department decades
after Tupac's death.
Joseph explained
to all hip hop TV
how more evidence of
police involvement
in the murderous
targeting of Tupac
led to evidence of a latter day
FBI counterintelligence program
targeting of Tupac.
We see that some
of these things
were orchestrated and
organized by the police,
and if you keep tracing that
DNA and those fingerprints,
it will lead to
the FBI targeted by
that same counterintelligence,
COINTELPRO kind of program.
[ELECTROCULT CIRCUS,

[INAUDIBLE]
Never stopped the transfusions
Fake institutions who--
NARRATOR: Based on
the CIAs own reports,
researchers believe the
oligarchs have continued
using their most studied
MK-Ultra drug, LSD,
into the present,
either overseas
or in private organizations.
Furthermore, the CIA front
group, the Human Ecology Fund,
appeared to become
privatized and outsourced
to groups such as
the Multidisciplinary
Association for Psychedelic
Studies, or MAPS.
MAPS' founding in 1986
during the Reagan Bush
presidential administration
seems no coincidence.
That year, former CIA director
turned Vice President George
Bush was involved in the
CIAs Iran Contra cocaine
trafficking operations,
as documented
by a senate subcommittee.
It became an
international scandal
involving agents of the Central
Intelligence Agency supporting
the Contras, funded through
cocaine trafficking,
trying to overthrow the
socialist Sandinista government
in Nicaragua.
Once Bush reached the
presidency in 1989,
he appointed Dr. David Kessler
as Food and Drug Administration
commissioner.
Kessler approved university
testing of psychedelics
in 1990, just after his
approval by the US Senate.
MAPS founder Rick Doblin said
FDA doctors helped guide him,
including Dr. Curtis Wright.
Investigative journalists later
called FDA director Dr. Kessler
and Dr. Wright top culprits
in the OxyContin scandal.
These journalists called it
the greatest medical disaster
in US history.
The opioid epidemic that has
fueled so many drug overdose
deaths, they now top all the
nation's deaths in world wars.
The FDA approved OxyContin and
minimized its addictiveness.
Dr. Wright suggested
the FDA should
limit competitive production
from other companies.
Two years later, he began
working for the drugmaker Purdue
Pharma.
Dr. Curtis Wright's
problem was that his mind
and ethical compass were
eternally focused on space.
In first approving psychedelic
research for Dick Doblin's MAPS
organization, Wright said he
and his colleague believed,
"If we can put a man on the
moon, we could study any drug."
In a since removed interview
with editor R. U. Sirius,
Doblin described Dr.
Wright as a Trekkie
who had programmed his computer
to make all sorts of Star Trek
sounds.
Wright was eternally in space.
MAN: The final frontier.
NARRATOR: This
was the same place
Timothy Leary had his ashes
launched after first having
planned to cryogenically have
his head severed and brain
frozen.
It's a familiar trade off most
people debate for themselves,
freeze the brain or send
our ashes into outer space.
In 2001, Drug
Enforcement Agency, DEA,
agents arrested 55-year-old
William Leonard Pickard,
deputy director of UCLA's
Drug Policy Research program
for running one of the nation's
largest LSD laboratories.
They arrested him at
the laboratory site,
a decommissioned
missile base owned
by Gordon Todd Skinner,
who doesn't own a missile
base these days.
DEA agents found enough
raw materials there
to make 16 million hits of LSD.
Missile base owner
Skinner had previously
done work for the
government on a drug bust.
The DEA didn't bring any
charges against Skinner,
and it's none of
your business why.
The Bureau of Narcotics
Enforcement, BNE,
said Pickard had previously
worked with the CIA spook Ron
Stark in the Brotherhood of
Eternal Love's LSD Laboratory.
Pickard had taken courses with--
--and remained very close
with Alexander Sasha Shulgin,
who had been in the Navy and was
working for Dow Chemicals, maker
of Agent Orange and napalm.
Shulgin and Dow
synthesized MDMA as well as
super strong psychedelic
STP for the CIA.
William Pickard's
other close associates
included UCLA and Harvard
professors Marc Kleiman and John
Halpern and assistant secretary
of state, Rob Gelbard.
The authorities do have
a sense of humor, though.
While Pickard worked
at UCLA, his main focus
was the Future and Emerging
Drugs Study or FEDS.
For those interested, William
Pickard's defense website
says he now practices
meditation while in prison
and sends his thoughts
to world peace.
That is basketball
player meta world peace.
Don't write him, though,
as he was released
from jail in July 2020.
A federal informant said Pickard
sent $97,000 in LSD profits
to Heffter Research Institute,
where Professor John Halpern is
a consultant.
Shulgin is an advisor.
They have a similar mission
as the Multidisciplinary
Association of
Psychedelic Studies.
Heffter and MAPS held
conferences together,
and they both got
donations from billionaires
such as Laurence Rockefeller.
It should be remembered
that the same billionaire
family, the Rockefellers,
had previously
helped fund some of the MK-Ultra
Human Ecology Fund projects.
Maybe they just wanted to expand
the consciousness of the Manson
family and countless others.
Countess Amanda skull driller
Fielding's organization,
the Beckley Foundation,
collaborated
with Heffter and MAPS
on several conferences.
Many of these conferences were
also co-sponsored by a group
called the Council on
Spiritual Practices
because it takes a serious leap
of faith to believe this shit.
The council's spiritual
practice often
combines hallucinogenic
substances
with the mystical
and the sacred.
These are two words
with Latin roots,
which mean little to nothing.
Countess skull driller
Fielding wasn't alone
with her head drilling.
She helped her
ex-husband, Joey Mellen,
drill a hole in his
skull, and he wrote a book
about it titled, Bore Hole.
While the book was
idiotic, it wasn't boring.
Here's a video with
Amanda Fielding
and Joey Mellen displaying how
sharp the skull hole made him.
I was trepanned in March
1995 in a hospital in Cairo.
I might have considered
a trepanning myself,
but Amanda was quite keen to
try and get it done medically.
NARRATOR: By 2019, MAPS policy
director Natalie Ginsberg
focused her work
on how psychedelics
could bring world peace.
She worked on that
peace building study
with London's imperial college,
the college that teaches
imperialism at home and abroad.
Amanda Fielding's
Beckley Foundation
had also formed a
research program
with the Imperial College.
The Guardian newspaper wrote
about the Beckley and Imperial
College work that year with
their interview of Fielding,
titled after her most
technically scientific quote,
"Acid can get deep down and
reset the brain like shaking up
a snow globe."
About the pet pigeon on her
shoulder from a 1971 photo,
Fielding told The
Guardian he's the reason
I know telepathy exists.
These three top psychedelic
institute's MAPS,
Heffter and Beckley,
spend vast amounts
of billionaire donors'
Rockefeller, Pritzker--
--and Musk money on
studies at top universities
around the world to
promote psychedelics.
They claimed that
psychedelics did everything
from curing addictions,
mood disorders, headaches,
inflammation to
promoting creativity,
world peace, and a truly
cosmic consciousness.
[ELECTROCULT CIRCUS, "T.M.D."]
And I'll love the only things
you've got to say
Some people may say that
psychedelic therapy is better
than the cornucopia
of psychiatric drugs
regularly recommended for
patients by psychiatrists
these days.
Others say try the least
invasive new counseling
techniques first, such as
Eye Movment Desensitization
and Reprocessing, or EMDR.
Columbia University, seen here
as getting top secret funding
under CIA MK-Ultra
subproject 130 1960,
started promoting psychedelic
therapy training over
60 years later in 2022.
Columbia University social
work's new psychedelic therapy
training program
presented many videos
to their graduate
community, such as this one.
Of course, a MAPS trainer
works at the Columbia program
and is presenting.
Here's a presenter in Columbia's
psychedelic training video.
Brooke Stott, a therapist
who goes by she/her
and is focusing on shame.
Stott was also a founding
project manager for trans health
for transgender folks.
Stott further completed the MAPS
MDMA assisted therapy training
despite that it's not legal yet.
Two more of the four
presenters for this training
identified as LGBTQ.
Did MAPS and Columbia purposely
hire so many from this community
to help deflect attacks on their
work promoting harmful drugs?
MAPS and Columbia
purport to believe
that the benefits of MDMA,
better known as ecstasy
or Molly, outweigh the risks.
This comes despite that
a metadata study derived
from 26 studies of 600 ecstasy
users cited in Science Daily
found that taking the
drug even just once
may cause significant short
and long-term memory loss.
Brooke Stott says
here, train now
for psilocybin or
psychedelic mushrooms
and MDMA assisted therapy as her
program expects its availability
in the coming years.
These therapies are not yet
available in the US outside
of a research setting.
We're bringing you
this content with
the anticipated
rescheduling of MDMA
and psilocybin in
the coming years.
NARRATOR: Don't you dare
shame her and Columbia
for promoting something
that's dangerous and illegal.
With this mass promotion of
former MK-Ultra projects,
it may help to revisit a few
more of the people involved
in these past psychedelic
research programs to see how
benevolent--
--or malevolent the current
psychedelic programs may be.
Besides the Manson family,
two other good examples
come to mind, and
the second example
deserves an in-depth
examination.
As previously noted,
Harvard's MK-Ultra money
had funded Professor
Richard Alpert
before he jumped out a second
floor window while tripping
and broke his arm.
Harvard's MK-Ultra
project money also
paid one of their
students, Ted Kaczynski.
a.k.a.
the Unabomber, to take LSD
and experiments at Harvard.
A much more hidden story
gained more attention in 2017
involving an infamous Baltimore
priest named Father Joseph
Maskell, who was made known
to the world in Netflix's Emmy
nominated documentary
series The Keepers.
In Baltimore, Johns Hopkins
University trained father Joseph
Maskell in counseling
in the early 1970s.
At this time,
Hopkins, like Harvard,
had also already received
funding from the CIAs project
MK-Ultra listed in CIA
MK-Ultra documents transcribed
in this book as
MK-Ultra subproject 87.
Psychiatrist Colin Ross printed
this information in his book,
The CIA Doctors, after reviewing
the 10,000 CIA MK-Ultra
documents released, such as
this one in the appendix.
Johns Hopkins had a long
history with MK-Ultra
in that their psychiatry
department chair, Dr. John C.
Whitehorn, received
MK-Ultra funding,
and then after
retiring from Hopkins,
Whitehorn became director
of the Human Ecology
Fund, the MK-Ultra
funding front group.
This article says that Johns
Hopkins psychiatry department
also joined with Spring
Grove Mental Hospital
in conducting extremely
precise, cutting
edge research such
as lobotomies,
which cut out people's
frontal lobes with a scalpel.
Here's Hopkins psychiatry
Director Emeritus John Clare
Whitehorn discussing
talking to patients.
Looking back at a quarter
of a century over my work
at the Hopkins, it seems
necessary to point out
what I was trying to do.
NARRATOR: It's uncertain if
Hopkins had given Whitehorn
a lobotomy before
making this video.
Besides the documentary
series, The Keepers,
covering father Joseph
Maskell, it also
highlighted an Archbishop Keough
Catholic Girls High School
English teacher,
Sister Cathy Cesnik.
The documentary
stated that many girls
started confiding to their
beloved teacher, sister Cathy,
that school chaplain, Father
Joseph Maskell, was raping them
and having others rape
them in his office.
The keepers followed Sister
Cathy's former students
Gemma Hoskins and Abbie Schaub
as they spent many years
investigating the murder of
their beloved high school
teacher in 1970.
With The Keeper's popularity
and Emmy award nomination,
it appeared to spur the Maryland
attorney general to investigate
the Archdiocese of Baltimore
and to finally come out
with a 456 page redacted
report on decades
of sexual and physical
abuse by priests
and other employees
of the Catholic Church
in April of 2023.
Here is Maryland's
Archbishop William E.
Lori in his work clothes.
No, this is not a
Halloween costume.
The attorney general's report
discusses the judicial system
and press actually aiding
the church in cover up.
Even in some of the rare
instances when sexual abuse was
prosecuted, the judicial
system and the press
colluded with the church
to avoid transparency
and accountability.
A closer look at revelations
about Archbishop Keough High
School's Father Joseph
Maskell presents more evidence
as to why the church
had so much power
over the media, the police,
prosecutors, the FBI
and the judicial system.
Evidence supports that
father Joseph Maskell
and an unknown number
of other priests
were working with the
CIAs project, MK-Ultra.
Besides father Joseph Maskell
being trained in counseling from
the Johns Hopkins who were
working with the CIAs MK-Ultra--
--Father Joseph Maskell
worked as the chaplain
for the Maryland State Police,
the Baltimore County Police
and the Air National
Guard, where he held
the rank of Lieutenant Colonel.
Former Baltimore Sun reporter
Tom Nugent, also featured
in The Keepers, wrote
that Maskell further
worked for several years as
chaplain at the US Army's Fort
Meade military base, which
is the home of the National
Security Agency.
Tom Nugent said 20-year-old
Baltimore County Office worker
Joyce Malecki's murdered body
was found on the Fort Meade
military base in November of
1969 near the time of Sister
Cathy Cesnik's disappearance.
Journalist Nugent said the FBI
is charged with solving murders
on US military bases
and told him in 2004,
that it had never investigated
the Malecki killing
and had no records
at all related
to any investigation
of the case.
But in 2014, in response to a
Freedom of Information request,
the FBI reportedly confirmed
having compiled thousands
of pages on the Malecki murder
and despite a promise to release
them, still sits on
nearly 6,000 pages.
In response to this lack of
fidelity, bravery and integrity,
an FBI spokesman said our
evidence response team
has spent years with
guns drawn looking
all over our offices
and Fort Meade.
But we just had a hard
time finding anything
related to that Malecki murder.
Nugent said that time period
had four other unsolved killings
of teenagers,
leaving investigators
wondering if they are
connected to sexual abuse
at Archbishop Keough High School
and several other Baltimore area
Catholic schools.
Investigator Gemma
Hoskins, seen here
being interviewed
on The View, had
been inspired to become a
teacher by Sister Cathy Cesnik
and won a Maryland
Teacher of the Year Award.
Here she is on The View.
It's so horrifying.
What has the reaction been,
Gemma, since you released
this series from people?
It's been overwhelming.
Surreal.
We have been on the
receiving end of many more
stories of abuse, and Jean's is
representative of many of those.
Now, we have probably
almost a hundred people
who have come forward that claim
to have been abused by Maskell.
And we--
Not just Maskell, right?
The implication is that
others are involved,
the police department--
Yes.
Yes.
Doctors.
Right.
NARRATOR: Gemma Hoskins
continued her investigations
after The Keepers filming
and started a podcast
interviewing more victims
as well as outside experts.
Maskell victim, Jean Hargadon
Wehner discussed her abuse
on this CBS Morning news show.
I remember being
raped by Maskell.
REPORTER: Jean
Hargadon Wehner says
she was also abused by Maskell
at the same Catholic school.
He was in this pattern of
manipulating, controlling.
NARRATOR: In a 2022
podcast, Jean Wehner
recounted how Father
Maskell had police
come in the back door of
his office to rape her.
Such as police Captain James
Scannell and Officer Robert
Zimmerman.
In 2023, after the attorney
general released the church sex
abuse report,
mainstream news programs
such as CBS Morning
news interviewed
Attorney General Anthony Brown
about the report and the cover
up.
REPORTER: Maryland Attorney
General Anthony Brown
issued the report.
For many, it ruined their
lives, their families.
And as disturbing, we found a
extensive cover up in an effort
to conceal the abuse.
NARRATOR: Attorney General
Brown added the implication
that the church needs to come
completely clean as the attorney
general's office
settles for nothing
less than full disclosure.
The Keepers documented how
Maskell's victims Jean Hargadon
Wehner and Teresa
Lancaster brought
a lawsuit against Father Joseph
Maskell, accusing him of rape.
The Keepers presented how Johns
Hopkins psychiatry department
director, Dr. Paul
McHugh, testified
on behalf of Father Maskell
and the other defendants.
Dr. McHugh convinced the judge
that the plaintiffs could not
have recalled sexual abuse
from repressed memories
as they don't exist.
McHugh said this despite that
such dissociative amnesia
is part of dissociative disorder
and dissociative identity
disorder, formerly multiple
personality disorder--
--which have been
part of the Bible
of psychiatry, the Diagnostic
Statistical Manual, since 1980.
Years later, in 2017,
the Baltimore archdiocese
ended up disagreeing
with its star witness Dr.
McHugh when it's spokesman Sean
Kane told the Baltimore Sun that
"the church fully acknowledges
abuse committed by Maskell,"
paying out over $10 million in
settlements related to abuse,
including Maskell's victims.
Following in the big clown
shoes of his predecessor,
MK-Ultra funding recipient and
Hopkins psychiatric director
John Whitehorn,
Hopkins Dr. Paul McHugh
sat on the board of the False
Memory Syndrome Foundation,
which advocated for adults
accused of raping children.
The False Memory Syndrome Group
ended with disgrace in 2019
as one of its three
founding members,
Ralph Underwager, a psychologist
and Lutheran minister,
infamously stated that 60%
of women sexually abused
said it was good for them.
Underwager then tried to
outdo himself in an interview
by celebrating that pedophiles
can boldly and courageously
affirm what they choose.
Baltimore-based Father Joseph
Maskell was an equal opportunity
pedophile.
While he abused many females at
Archbishop Keough High School
for Catholic Girls,
He also abused
boys such as Ross Weiss at other
places he worked part-time.
Weiss said that Maskell
would then pimp him out
to other parishes and offices in
Baltimore, Catonsville, Towson,
Washington D.C.,
and even Fort Meade.
Remember that Fort Meade was the
home of the vast intelligence
group, the National
Security Agency.
Maskell worked as
a chaplain there,
providing spies with
spiritual guidance
with his expertise in
child rape, prostitution
and blackmail.
[ELECTROCULT CIRCUS,
"ANTIHILLS"] We are separate
Bathing in slumber
Look around you
Count all the numbers
of those who are--
The Maryland Attorney General's
church sex abuse report
identifies 158 priests
sexually and physically abusing
over 600 victims over
the past 80 years.
Investigators told
the court there
are likely 100 more victims.
With data from the US Department
of Justice suggesting that 86%
of child sexual abuse
is never reported,
the real number is likely over
4,200 victims in the Baltimore
archdiocese, about
half of Maryland.
And with similar
attorney general reports
from Massachusetts
and Pennsylvania,
this is a tiny percentage of the
United States of sexual abuse.
Maskell victim Jean
Hargadon Wehner
also states in The
Keepers documentary series
that Father Maskell took her to
Sister Cathy Cesnik's dead body
before police found
it, threatening her
that she'd be next if she
told anyone of her abuse.
Wehner's description of the
site matched unreleased police
records.
With these reports,
Father Joseph Maskell
had far surpassed even Papa John
Phillips as the world's worst
father figure.
When Wehner was
in court, she said
that one of her rapists as
a teenager in Maskell office
was a Baltimore City politician.
In 1995, under the
alias Jennifer,
Wehner said that this politician
"had given a pretend political
speech while she was required
to perform oral sex on him."
This along with
the photos Maskell
reported to have
taken in his office,
offer more evidence
that it was part
of a vast blackmail
operation, which
was common throughout the
history of the FBI and the CIA.
One Baltimore Sun
article made it clearer
why the police, FBI and
prosecutors failed to arrest
and charge certain police.
It gave the example of a
priest from the abuse report,
Father Robert Newman
admitting in 1987
that he had abused 12
boys more than 100 times.
Newman was never
charged with a crime
as he received an exceptional
clearance from the Baltimore
states attorney's office.
They all found him
absolutely exceptional.
Readers can repeat horror
stories like this over 463 times
in that many pages
of this report.
Similar reports came out in
the states of Pennsylvania--
--and Massachusetts with similar
results in that the priests had
largely escaped
public accountability
and in some cases,
were promoted.
The Baltimore Sun
presented video interviews
they conducted with Father
Maskell sex abuse survivor Donna
Von Den Bosch featured in
The Keepers and seen here.
It started when
I was 16, and I
know it was LSD
because of the writing
on the side of the capsule.
I saw it one day before
he put it in my Coke.
I was riding a school bus.
I was 16 or 17.
And I called her best
friend and my worst enemy.
And I think my school
was getting her to take--
put it in my mouth because
we would get in fights.
She looked like a
football player,
and we would get fights
on the school bus
where we would be
rolling in the aisle.
And she would be
putting it in my mouth,
and I'd be fighting
back, and she'd
have her hand over my mouth,
so I couldn't spit out.
And it was every
day for 30 days.
And I can't tell you how I
felt by the end of 30 days.
Yeah, everything was numb on me.
And do you know I was given
a post-hypnotic suggestion?
I was at a party once, and I
never held a gun or anything,
and I shot it.
We were shooting at gong rings,
Coke rings on a tree, and I won.
I won.
I got the three in a
row right first time.
And I'm like--
I was so upset holding
that gun and doing that.
I had to go off and
just leave the area.
And I always had a big
fear in my life that some--
I knew it code, a digit number.
And I always had
a big fear someone
would call and
give me this digit,
and I didn't know that
it was such a big fear.
And then I met another victim
I met through The Keepers.
And I don't think
she went to Keough.
I don't know.
But we-- she had the same
fear, and the same experience.
We always felt like we
would go kill somebody.
I've been on and off the
counselors all my life
but in 1993 is when I
went to Nancy Hanley.
I remember the policeman.
He was a police photographer
coming in the back door,
the fire door.
I remember him
yelling at me one day.
I remember him yell that.
And I thought, what the hell
is he talking about now?
That they are watching me.
And I thought, I'm 16 years old.
Nobody cares about me.
NARRATOR: Other girls
across the country
reported sexual abuse
more directly by the CIA.
In listening to
the testimony today,
it all sounds really familiar.
NARRATOR: In 1995, New Orleans
based trauma therapist Valerie
Wolf testified with
two women she counseled
at a hearing of the
President's Advisory Committee
involving human
experimentation on children.
As a therapist for
the past 22 years,
I have specialized in treating
victims and perpetrators
of trauma and their families.
When word got out
that I was appearing
at this hearing, nearly 40
therapists across the country--
--and I had about a week
and a half to prepare,
contacted me to
talk about clients
who had reported being subjects
in radiation and mind control
experiments.
The consistency of
people's stories
about the purpose
of the mind control
and pain induction techniques
such as electric shock, use
of hallucinogens, sensory
deprivation, hypnosis,
dislocation of limbs and
sexual abuse is remarkable.
NARRATOR: One of Wolf's two
testifying counseling clients,
Chris DeNicola, testified
about her experience
as an experimental subject.
Documents supporting
this were submitted
to the advisory committee.
All these experiments
were performed on me
in conjunction with
mind control techniques
and drugs in Tucson, Arizona.
Dr. Green was using me
mostly as a mind control
subject from 1966 to 1973.
His objective was to
gain control of my mind
and train me to
be a spy assassin.
The first significant
memory took place
at Kansas City
University in 1966.
Don Ebner took me there by plane
when my mom was out of town.
I was in what looked
like a laboratory,
and there seemed to
be other children.
I was strapped down,
naked, spread eagle
on a table on my back.
Dr. Green had electrodes on
my body, including my head.
Between 1972 and 1976,
he and his assistants
were sometimes careless
and left the cage unlocked.
Whenever physically possible,
I snuck into his office
and found files with
reports and memos addressed
to CIA and military personnel.
Included in these
files were project,
sub-project, subject
and experiment
names with some code numbers.
NARRATOR: The other
counseling client
of Valerie Wolf's, Claudia
Mullins, named the top CIA
and project MK-Ultra figures
as using sexual abuse,
hypnosis and torture, while also
mentioning Operation Artichoke,
which was part of MK-Ultra.
She further described a
meeting they had with her
where they instructed her on
conducting sexual blackmail
against government officials
and academic leaders
to keep money flowing.
But Dr. John
Gittinger tested me.
Dr. Cameron gave me the shocks,
and Dr. Green the X-rays.
Then I was told by Sid
Gottlieb that, quote,
"I was right for the big
A" or meaning artichoke.
Made me for the
odd bruises, needle
marks, burns on my head, fingers
and even the genital soreness.
I had no reason to
believe otherwise.
They had already begun
to control my mind.
The next year, I
was sent to a lodge
in Maryland called Deep
Creek Cabins to learn
how to sexually please men.
I was taught how to coerce them
into talking about themselves.
And it was Richard Helms who was
deputy director of the CIA, Dr.
Gottlieb, George White,
Morris Allen, who
all planned on filming as many
high government agency officials
and heads of academic
institutions and foundations
as possible, so that later, when
the funding for mind control
and radiation
started to dwindle,
projects would continue.
[ELECTROCULT CIRCUS,
"ANTIHILLS"] Because it is
rising
What are you
NARRATOR: The year before
the 1995 President's Advisory
Committee hearing, Father
Maskell victims, Jean Wehner
and Teresa Lancaster, had filed
the aforementioned lawsuit
against Father Maskell,
and that lawsuit also
included fellow Archbishop
Keough Chaplain Neil
Magnus and local Baltimore
gynecologist Dr. Christian
Richter.
This was covered in
The Keepers in 2017,
and in this local
news segment, in 1994.
REPORTER: The other
alleged victim, Jane Roe,
claims the same things
happened to her.
Plus, she says Father
Maskell took her
to a local gynecologist,
Dr. Christian Richter,
where she alleges during several
exams, they both raped her.
NARRATOR: A reported
child sex abuse victim
named Lynn Schirmer
was born in Detroit
and shown here in a local
newspaper picture with Miss
Universe just before
Schirmer moved
to Alabama at six years old.
When Lynn got older, she
said that she found out
her father received
money from the CIA
to allow them to
experiment on her
at an annex of a NASA facility
in Huntsville, Alabama,
as a child.
Gemma Hoskins did a podcast
interview with Lynn Schirmer
where she gave details
of her sexual abuse
by Dr. Richter and others.
LYNN SCHIRMER: The place where
I saw Richter was like an annex.
It was a facility
that my perpetrators
used when they couldn't get into
the main facilities at NASA.
And Richter came in and
was hovering behind my--
the perpetrator, the
main perpetrator.
And he had with him a black box.
And he gave the box to the main
guy, and they hooked me up.
Richter again, he
paced around behind.
The main guy did all the work.
And when it was over,
Richter was really pleased.
And then he raped me.
NARRATOR: In 2021,
a woman named Liz,
who worked as a
medical assistant
for Dr. Christian
Richter for years,
came forward and corroborated
evidence of Theresa Lancaster's
and Lynn Schirmer
statements about Richter.
Liz described a locked
basement exam room,
illegally working with patients
without assistance and Richter
having and moving the
black EKG machine.
Schirmer described when
Richter traveled often.
LIZ ROE: An old
vintage EKG machine,
a portable EKG machine that
I remember seeing it moved.
Dr. Richter traveled
all the time.
Absolutely.
NARRATOR: In August of 2019,
Gemma Hoskins and Shane Waters
interviewed Canadian trained
psychiatrist Dr. Colin Ross.
Dr. Ross wrote some early books
on multiple personality disorder
now called dissociative
identity disorder--
--which were given
positive reviews
from top psychiatric
journals, such as the British
Journal of Psychiatry.
Dissociative identity
disorder stems
from sexual and physical
abuse in childhood.
As previously discussed,
Dr. Ross reviewed 10,000
declassified CIA MK-Ultra
documents for his book,
The CIA Doctors, Human
Rights Violations by American
Psychiatrists.
SHANE WATERS: How does
LSD fit into the program?
I know you mentioned
LSD a few minutes ago.
COLIN ROSS: One of my
recent papers is called--
I think it's called "LSD
Experiments by the US Army."
And it's a detailed history
of-- so the army, the air force,
the Navy and the CIA
all did LSD experiments,
and these included under
MK-Ultra and related programs.
SHANE WATERS: We asked
some of the survivors
if they had questions
that they would
like us to discuss with you.
Gemma, I'll let you
ask the first one.
GEMMA HOSKINS: OK.
And before I do this, I want
both Dr. Ross and our listeners
to know that the reason
Shane and I began
to look into the
MK-Ultra facet of this
is because of Jean Wehner.
She and the women that sent
me questions, they really do
believe they were programmed.
When I was in my 20s, I
was missing large gaps
in my personal history.
I could not remember
whole years.
I thought it was due to trauma.
I was sent to a ritual
abuse doctor in the '90s.
He agreed I was ritually
sexually abused.
I could not recognize my own
hand if I was laying in bed.
I thought I had killed somebody.
I felt guilt. Now she was--
I should have said
this, but she was
sexually abused by Father
Joseph Maskell, who
was the chaplain
at her high school,
as well as some other men
who he hypnotized her,
he drugged her with some
liquid and other men
paid to come in-- actually
into the school building.
And she really
believes that she was
programmed so that if
she talked about it,
she would kill herself.
Is that a possibility?
COLIN ROSS: Yes, all these
elements of programming,
that is hypnosis, drugs,
memorization exercises,
codes being implanted are
described in the CIA documents
in great detail.
So they would hypnotize
somebody who's
sometimes just a secretary
in the CIA, who's
a good hypnotic subject.
They hypnotize her.
They implant a code, which could
be a tone on the telephone,
could be a hand signal,
could be a series of numbers.
And then she comes
out of hypnosis.
She's carrying on with
her day and somebody
does the tone, the hand
signal or says the code,
she switches into
her hypnotized state.
She goes and retrieves
some documents or hands
off what she thinks is
a bomb or in one case,
pulls the trigger
on what she thinks
is a loaded gun to kill a
military officer that she knows.
Of course, it was
all not real bullets.
So all these things are
described in great detail
in the CIA documents.
They actually happened for sure.
Posthypnotic suggestions
are completely
validated in the
hypnosis literature.
GEMMA HOSKINS: There
was a psychiatrist
that the Archdioceses of
Baltimore had a contract with,
and he traveled to
different schools,
and he was authorized to
administer certain tests
and to evaluate students.
And he was very close
friends with Joseph Maskell.
And we found that they
were personality tests
with a scale that
would have been
used to screen possible
candidates for susceptibility.
And we have heard from
hundreds of alumni
who said they were given
that test in a classroom
in their freshman year.
And then depending
on how they scored,
they were called
into his office,
and it was given to him--
given to them again.
And we really feel Urban
and the-- it was called the,
I'm just going to say it,
the psychology associates.
A number of those psychiatrists
also abused young girls.
REPORTER: And this appears
to be something else.
The American
Psychological Association
says it's a version of the
Millon Clinical Multiaxial
Inventory Test.
NARRATOR: In response to this
question, Gemma Hoskins posed
from a survivor, Dr. Ross
discussed a patient of his
who was abused in psychiatric
hospitals in Vermont.
This patient, Karen
Wetmore, later
published a book
about the experience
called Surviving Evil.
She explored her
medical records and did
freedom of Information
Act requests
on related CIA
documents, finding
Robert Hyde in her records.
Dr. Ross found CIA
documents saying
Robert Hyde contracted with
MK-Ultra on sub-project 63, 66,
as well as sub-project 10.
In her medical record is the
name Robert Hyde who was a top
secret cleared LSD
contractor under MK-Ultra
And there's numerous other
connections in MK-Ultra from
the doctors who were
at the hospital.
And this includes the CIA
program all fully documented,
and the name of the guy and the
name of the psychological test
who was a CIA officer.
And these tests were
widely administered
at schools and other
locations in Vermont
and throughout
the United States.
That's absolutely a fact.
NARRATOR: Another question
matched many survivors questions
about Father Maskell
giving them LSD.
This comes likely due to the
fact that studies reflected
in books such as this about
LSD state the drug provides
"a marked heightening of
patients suggestibility."
After talking to a national
audience in The Keepers
and shows such as The
View, Gemma Hoskins
could only express her
most radical conclusions
on podcasts such as one
produced by author Nick Bryant.
Nick Bryant discovered
the tragic plight
of boys in a vast
Nebraska foster home
who he reported were
trafficked to Washington D.C.
politicians in his book,
The Franklin Scandal,
published in 2009.
In 2011, Bryant attained
billionaire, pedophile and drug
pusher Jeff Epstein's
little black book,
but couldn't get a
single news source
to publish its contents
until Gawker published
his article on it in 2015.
Finally, on July 18th, 2019,
magazines such as Vanity Fair
said journalist Nick Bryant
comes in from the fringe,
though mainstream media had
put him there for years.
Gemma Hoskins
summarized here how
she found Father
Joseph Maskell's
network of prostitution,
drugs and trafficking
spanned the East Coast.
--who had been abused by
Maskell or somebody in his
network.
And I've learned over
the last five years,
that, that network was huge.
I think it spanned
the whole East Coast.
I think it was a network
of prostitution, drugs,
like, trafficking.
NARRATOR: Gemma further
told of the FBI lying
around Joyce Malecki's death
before Nick Bryant summed up
how he found that US
intelligence sensors
any sensitive
information, such as this.
With the Franklin scandal,
the FBI intimidated the kids--
Mm-hmm.
--so they wouldn't talk.
The FBI certainly
played an integral role
in covering up Epstein.
Epstein--
Mm-hmm.
Right.
The Franklin
scandal, ultimately,
if you follow all
the threads, goes--
intersects with intelligence.
So when it runs into that area,
it's very easy for intelligence
to just quash it.
NARRATOR: The only slight silver
lining in all this bad news
is that the work of
advocates like Gemma Hoskins
and all of the sex
abuse survivors
had some success in 2023.
That year, they finally
convinced Maryland lawmakers
to pass--
--and the government to sign
the Child Victims Act, which
will end Maryland's
statute of limitations
for when lawsuits can be
filed against institutions
for child sexual abuse.
[ELECTROCULT CIRCUS, "SHUT ME
UP"] Shout, shout, shout,
shout it out
Regarding the
promotion of marijuana
by marijuana dispensaries
that have weeded
their way into every
crevice of the country,
that and the
psychedelic promotion
have really played out
well as the soma lulling us
along in the brave new world
that we're living in today.
Of course, people can use
whatever drugs they like,
but the oligarchs, groups such
as the World Economic Forum,
are trying to convince us
to be happy with their ever
increasing tyrannical ways.
For example, the World Economic
Forum leader Klaus Schwab
said that by 2030, you'll
own nothing and be happy.
Klaus Schwab grew up as the
son of a factory manager
in Southern Germany.
Klaus's father, Eugen
Schwab, was the director
of the factory of
the Swiss company
Escher-Wyss in Ravensburg when
Klaus Schwab was born in 1938.
Escher-Wyss was the biggest
employer in Ravensbrck
in the 1930s.
With a small Jewish
community in Ravensburg,
Escher-Wyss didn't seem to have
a problem when the Nazis forced
the sale of the four large
Jewish department stores
and when at least eight
died violently in the 1930s.
Under the term racial
improvement in Ravensburg,
people with mental or physical
illnesses received 389
sterilization
operations in the 1930s.
Eugen Schwab was true to his
name in leading a proud eugenics
community of Nazis whose
party awarded the Escher-Wyss
Ravensburg branch the title of
National Socialist Model Company
while Schwab was at the helm.
When World War II started,
Escher-Wyss benefited from
the fact that 3,600 forced
laborers worked in Ravensburg
who the company kept
in a special camp.
Come on, who doesn't like camp?
Escher-Wyss was working on a
large order of flamethrowers
for Hitler's war effort.
Escher-Wyss also led industries
in turbine technology.
The Norsk Hydro plant, part
powered by Escher-Wyss,
was the only industrial
plant under Nazi control
capable of producing
heavy water,
an ingredient essential
for making plutonium
for the Nazi atomic
bomb program.
Eugene Schwab and
company almost helped
the Nazis win World War II.
The WEF also is trying to
convince us through their tweets
that not wanting to eat bugs
in the future is bigotry.
They ask, is it racist
to not want to transition
to a bug-based diet?
To defy these World Economic
Forum movements towards tyranny,
we'll have to be
our sharpest selves
and not hanging out for
hours, getting high,
acting like house cats.
