IN THIS EPISODE: It was kept secret for years that the U.S. government spent millions of dollars and decades of research and experiments looking into the paranormal, trying to weaponize psychic powers like remote viewing and mind control. We were told they didn\u2019t find much success \u2013 but could that be part of an ongoing secret? What if they did succeed, but don\u2019t want us to know due to \u201cnational security\u201d reasons? And what if they aren\u2019t just spying on our enemies, but also on us, the country\u2019s citizens? And if they can do that\u2026 can they also control our minds to make us think and do whatever they wish? It\u2019s a disturbing journey.
