CIA used Cold War-era mind control program to radicalise Trump shooter

The Central Investigation Agency’s (CIA) decades-old sinister mind-control program has been linked to the assassination attempt on now-President Donald Trump in July 2024.

Congressman Tim Burchett has claimed that the CIA’s program officially known as MKUltra was used to manipulate the mind of the 20-year-old shooter, Thomas Crooks, indicating that Trump was the target of a deep state.

For the unversed, MKUltra was a notorious Cold War-era program whose existence was denied by the agency, but later lawsuits forced it to accept the reality of the program; however, the CIA claimed that the operations had ceased in 1973.

CIA used drugs and psychological control to target mental patients, drug addicts, army soldiers, and even ordinary citizens to control their minds.

Burchett claims that the agency never really stopped MKUltra, adding that the Trump shooter was manipulated online using various techniques to erode his free will. The congressman didn’t offer any direct evidence.

The Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) has maintained that Crooks acted alone and ruled out any foreign direction or involvement by co-conspirators.

DailyMail reports that the congressman has claimed the agency uses radicalised youth for rogue missions, but offered no evidence.

The CIA's infamous mind-control program is no secret, as notorious gangster James ‘Whitney’ Bulger has claimed that he was also subject to experiments. At the same time, he was imprisoned in Atlanta in 1957.

He claimed that mind control was so intense that he saw a camera change into a dog head and humans turning into skeletons in front of him.

These allegations have opened a new Pandora’s box, and the agency has yet to comment on the accusations of its involvement.
