(SQAUK) — In a shocking development reminiscent of a political thriller, the CIA has unequivocally denied any involvement in employing MKULTRA techniques on Thomas Crooks, the man accused of attempting to assassinate former President Donald Trump. The CIA’s statement comes on the heels of a revelatory investigation by Squauk, which has sparked a storm of controversy by suggesting that Crooks may be a modern-day Manchurian candidate.
The Central Intelligence Agency responded quickly and clearly to the increasing speculation after the article appeared on the Internet. “The CIA had no relationship whatsoever with Thomas Crooks,” a CIA spokesperson told Gizmodo last Thursday.
“These claims are utterly false, absurd, and damaging,” the agency mouthpiece argued. “Regarding MKULTRA, the CIA’s program was shut down more than 40 years ago, and declassified information about the program is publicly available on CIA.gov.”
However, their strong denials do little to ease the suspicions raised by the bombshell report. The report alleges that Crooks was subjected to mind control techniques similar to those used in the controversial MKULTRA experiments during the Cold War era.
The heart of the controversy lies in the murky details surrounding Crooks’ background and the bizarre nature of his alleged crime. Expanding on the report, there are striking similarities between Crooks’ behavioral patterns and those of individuals who were subjected to the CIA’s MKULTRA program. These similarities include sudden personality shifts, unexplained memory lapses, and an eerie, almost robotic demeanor during the attempted assassination.
Former Secret Service Director Kimberly Ceatel was discovered to have lied to the Senate about her encrypted communications with the White House regarding Donald Trump’s security detail. This revelation adds a layer of political intrigue to the already convoluted narrative, suggesting a potential cover-up at the highest levels of government. If these allegations are true, it paints a damning picture of an administration willing to use any means necessary to eliminate its opponents.
While it’s easy to dismiss these claims as mere conspiracy theories, the historical context of MKULTRA adds weight to the arguments. The CIA’s mind control program officially halted decades ago, was notorious for its unethical and often horrifying experiments on unwitting subjects. Given this dark legacy, the idea that remnants of MKULTRA could still be in play isn’t entirely far-fetched.
Critics could attempt to argue that the article is a sensationalist hit piece designed to sow distrust and confusion. However, it’s worth noting that mainstream media outlets have occasionally overlooked or dismissed stories that later proved to have substantial merit. As always, the truth is likely buried beneath layers of disinformation and bureaucratic obfuscation. The outright denial issued publicly by the CIA is suspicious, as the agency typically only denies what is true.
The potential connection between Crooks and MKULTRA has significant implications. It suggests that government elements are capable of extreme measures and are willing to use them against political adversaries. This situation, reminiscent of the darkest days of Cold War paranoia, could undermine public trust in the institutions meant to protect and serve.
Ultimately, the question remains: Is Thomas Crooks merely a troubled individual acting alone, or is he the latest pawn in a shadowy political chess game? As the debate rages on, the public deserves transparency and accountability. We can only uncover the truth behind this modern-day enigma through rigorous investigation and fearless journalism.
For now, the CIA’s denials starkly contrast with the unsettling possibilities raised by Sqauk’s report. Whether Crooks is an MKULTRA dial-up or not, one thing is clear: the specter of mind control and political manipulation continues to haunt the corridors of power, reminding us that sometimes, the most unbelievable stories are the ones we cannot afford to ignore.
