Ominous Origins: Operation Midnight Climax
We peel back the curtain on Operation Midnight Climax, a covert government program focused on mind control and chemical experimentation.
In case you were under the impression that the government always has your best interests at heart, I’m here to shine a light on the dark underbelly of the U.S. government and its secret spy organization, the CIA. Who needs consent when you’ve got Uncle Sam in your corner?
Operation Midnight Climax was a shady CIA operation and an off-shoot of sorts of the illegal human experimentation program MKUltra, so you know it’s got some terrible stuff associated with it.
From LSD and other mind-altering drugs to blackmail and mind control, Midnight Climax had it all when it came to highly questionable government experiments on its unknowing and non-consenting public.
Tune in as we talk about appalling human experiments in mind control.
