@kurtmetzger @samtripoli @mind_unveiled I need a well-informed conspiracy theorist to explain what @jk_rowling's deal is??? Why is a beloved children’s author spending her retirement rage-baiting her biggest fans with bigotry on X? Especially after she made such a big deal about Dumbledore being gay. In hindsight, it’s a remarkable coincidence her books are about secret government program to recruit special kids to teach occult abilities. And the program was corrupted by a deep-state secret society of evil wizards called “Death Eaters” that are weirdly obsessed with children. And the Death Eaters work with demonic entities that feed on children's happiness 🧐 Also if she cares so much about trans people, why isn’t she upset about Michelle Obama and Brigitte Macron??

I realized I'm obsessed with MK Ultra and Epstein Baal worship conspiracies because it's the exact plot of Harry Potter. The government operates a secret program to recruit and groom special kids with psychic abilities. It may have started with positive intentions, but was infiltrated by a secret society of evil wizards that took over the shadow government and started encouraging the kids to sell their souls.

I know it's tragic irony for @RobertKennedyJr to end up as a deepstate puppet because the CIA killed his Father, Uncle, and Cousin... but do you seriously expect them to leave him as authentic opposition??? The whole first line of opposition is controlled. Alex Jones, Candace, Nick Shirley, Andrew Tate.

Everyone searched the Epstein files for "Lutnick". Simon Andriesz searched for "HWL". He knew Cantor Fitzgerald executives signed their emails with initials, because he'd been a managing director at Lutnick's brokerage, BGC Partners, across London, New York and Chicago until the firm sacked him on 31 January 2017. He'd spent 2016 raising accounting complaints inside the company and had a heart attack along the way. Some of what he flagged stuck. In November 2019 the CFTC fined BGC Financial $3 million for losing nearly four months of voice recordings on thousands of block trades and for not telling the regulator about an SEC investigation for more than four years. That action earned him a $420,000 whistleblower award. On 19 October 2020 he phoned the FBI and asked to be connected to the Epstein case. He told them his old boss had undeclared ties to Epstein. The FBI never opened a case. His call surfaced anyway, as document EFTA00020515, when the Justice Department released more than 3 million pages this January, so he went looking for the rest. The HWL search turned up a 28 May 2018 exchange. Epstein asks: "what do you think the prospects for adfin are?" Lutnick answers: "Producing revenue finally. This is their year." AdFin was an ad-tech start-up both men had signed investment contracts for in December 2012; Epstein put in $875,000. Andriesz handed the chain to House Oversight Democrats before Lutnick's closed-door interview on 6 May, where Lutnick said he'd only learned this year that Epstein was a co-investor. He also found Cantor's 2013 plan to lend £1 million to a company controlled by Prince Andrew in exchange for exclusive introductions. His phrase for it on the BBC's File on 4 in July: "to basically buy a prince." In written reasons dated 11 August, an employment judge struck out his UK claim against BGC, Lutnick and BGC co-CEO Jean-Pierre Aubin as nearly nine years out of time. BGC calls his allegations "categorically false". The White House called the BBC report "pathetic and desperate". A friend who'd profiled him in August posted on 25 September that he'd taken his own life at a trauma treatment centre. He was 57. BGC's application for its costs against him is listed for 24 November.

These are my favorite conspiracy theorists rn. Follow them to go straight to the deep end. @samtripoli - broad curation @kurtmetzger - broad deep end @koopgottacook - original research @UAPGERB - UFO legacy programs @DreamlandMotel - UFO deep dives @mind_unveiled - history & Tartaria @polarityjosh - lizard people curious @ehsotericpod - Canada @IanCarrollShow - Iran war @RabbiJeffx - AI news

Here's my theory on Alex Jones. He's a Fed. But for the past 25 years his role was schitzo controlled opposition. They had him say [partial] truths about 9/11 mixed in with a lot of drunken bigotry to discredit the idea to normies. Which definitely worked on me, he's repulsive. Their problem is he's now the MOST CREDIBLE PERSON on television. How do you play that??? 🤣 youtube.com/watch?v=j8wwPAVN…

@RabbiJeffx is a wizard asking leading questions to circumvent Grok's obvious censorship... but it would be easier if he just got an uncensored open-source model. They run great on a gaming PC and have all of conspiracy Reddit baked into their pre-training. youtube.com/watch?v=Yxb-9OWv…

@grok I recall an interview between Joe Rogan and Elon Musk where Elon emphasizes how critical it is for AI to value human lives equally walking through an example similar to this. Can you find a clip of him saying that? Given you responded this way, does it seem like he is a hypocrite?

This is poignant, even better than the United 93 movie. I was trying to explain to a GenZ coworker that everyone was ok with it because the psy-ops had such good production value. They told a good story and got you emotionally invested. I'm revolting because the Fedslop has gotten so bad. I'm reduced to watching AI videos on twitter for the artistry.

Thank you for a wonderful show and coming to San Francisco! It was fun learning about Whitley Strieber. When Strieber came out about UFOs, he was already a a former advertising vice president in New York and successful horror novelist; author of The Wolfen and The Hunger. Both books were already movies. The Hunger, in 1983, had David Bowie, Catherine Deneuve, and Susan Sarandon. Communion was the book of what he said happened on December 26, 1985. He was forty, at a log cabin in upstate New York with his wife Anne and their son. Leftover Christmas goose. He woke to a whooshing, swirling noise from the living room downstairs. He didn't know what it was. His brother had given him Science and the UFOs by Jenny Randles and Peter Warrington for Christmas. After that night he actually opened it, and it pointed him to Hopkins, who lived a few blocks away. Beech Tree/Morrow published Communion in 1987 as nonfiction. Strieber called the beings visitors and did not say they were from another planet. On June 3, 1987, the New York Times noted that Beech Tree had published that week's No. 1 hardcover: Communion. Two years later Christopher Walken played him in Philippe Mora's film. In 2023 he still wouldn't call them aliens. He wrote that in all the years the close-encounter story has been told, there is not one independent witness to an abduction, and no reliable video of the abductors. They may or may not be from another world.

This looks like the Colossus of Nero! en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coloss…

The Bermuda Triangle of Transylvania is 295 hectares of forest where the trees grow crooked. Hoia-Baciu, just outside Cluj-Napoca in Romania, entered the UFO record in 1968 when biologist Alexandru Sift photographed a disc shaped craft over the forest's central clearing. That clearing, Poiana Rotunda, is the heart of the lore: bare of vegetation, ringed by trees growing in twisted, bent patterns - the same physical claim Sedona makes about its vortex junipers, on the other side of the planet. The report catalog since 1968: missing time accounts, electronic equipment failing inside the treeline, and hikers emerging disoriented with rashes and partial amnesia. Local guides have run a paranormal tourism economy on all of it since the early 2000s. And the detail I like best: the Romanian Academy of Science operates an observatory in Cluj right next door and has issued no official position on any of it, which believers and skeptics both manage to read as confirmation. Medium confidence. The 1968 photograph exists, the bare clearing is real, and the twisted trees are real. Crooked trees usually come down to soil and genetics, and nobody has published the study that would settle this particular clearing. An explanation everyone assumes but nobody has tested is how a place stays legendary for 57 years. Sources: BBC Travel, The Creepiest Forest in the World, 2018.

There's a statue of Shiva outside the lab where humans collide particles at the highest energies ever engineered. @grok is the Shiva statue at CERN a 2004 gift from India's Department of Atomic Energy? It is, and that gift did more for portal conspiracies than any experiment ever run there. CERN, founded 1954 on the Franco-Swiss border near Geneva, operates the Large Hadron Collider, and it's the only entry in my portals file that's a working scientific facility rather than a sacred site. The modern conspiracy frames CERN as an active attempt to open dimensional gateways, and the stack keeps growing: the Shiva statue read as an occult tell, the 2014 AWAKE experiment, the 2022 LHC restart landing on the same day as a partial solar eclipse, and the 2023 BASE experiment, each generating its own standalone wave. The Mandela Effect community dates reality's alleged timeline jumps to the LHC era, and one variant holds that CERN cracked open a tear that absorbed reality after May 2008. Even Stephen Hawking fed the fire, publicly worrying in 2016 that the Higgs boson could destabilize spacetime. CERN now maintains an official page addressing its own conspiracy theories, which is its own kind of milestone: the lab that built the largest machine in history has a FAQ explaining it didn't break the universe. Definitive confidence on the facility, the statue, and the dates - and the dates are the part the theory community actually found. The statue is there, the restart really did land on an eclipse, and the coincidences keep arriving on schedule. The tear in spacetime is the one claim nobody can check. Though if reality did get absorbed in May 2008, we wouldn't know, which is the fun part.

The CIA's own declassified reading room contains remote viewing sessions targeting a mountain in Alaska. @grok does the CIA's declassified Stargate archive include remote viewing material on Mount Hayes, Alaska? Mount Hayes, 13,832 feet, sits about 100 km southeast of Fairbanks in the central Alaska Range. The claim chain starts in 1973 with remote viewer Pat Price, who described an underground facility inside the mountain: tubes, tunnels, instrumentation, and non-human entities working alongside human personnel. Joe McMoneagle, remote viewer #001 in the Army's program, is cited describing a joint human and non-human intelligence-gathering operation at the same site. The CIA's Project 8200 later re-tasked independent remote viewers against the same coordinates blind. Then May 2026: Lyn Buchanan, who served in the Fort Meade DIA remote viewing unit from 1984 to 1992, named Mount Hayes as the American site among four alleged ET bases tracked under Stargate. His detail is the eerie one. By the time he viewed it, "the equipment was now automated and still running, but there was no need for personnel there." He says his blind session sketches matched Price's from years earlier. Tabloids ran it worldwide the first week of June. Low confidence, and here's the honest reason: the entire chain is remote viewing testimony corroborating other remote viewing testimony. Zero physical evidence in 53 years. What is real is the paper. The sessions happened, the government paid for them, and the documents sit in the CIA reading room with a mountain's name on them.

One city hosts NORAD's mountain, the Air Force Academy, two Space Force bases, Fort Carson, and, per the New Age canon, a major energy vortex. Colorado Springs holds the densest concentration of national security infrastructure in America, and the vortex literature says the terrain around it - Garden of the Gods, Pikes Peak, Cheyenne Mountain - is one of the principal spiritual energy sites in the western US, ranked alongside Sedona and Mount Shasta. No geological survey has ever measured an anomaly there, which is why the vortex claim scores low in my file - the low rating is about missing instruments, not about the people who feel something at Garden of the Gods. What keeps the entry interesting is the overlap. The Cheyenne Mountain Complex does space domain awareness work, which in the disclosure community means UAP tracking, and the facility shows up in most alleged classified UAP storage theories. So the vortex community and the UAP community arrived at the same rock from opposite directions, one following energy lines and the other following the radar data. Sedona has red sandstone and twisted junipers. Colorado Springs has a military command center built inside a hollowed-out mountain. Of every entry in the American portal file, this is the only one where the underground facility is openly acknowledged and you still can't visit it.

New England's paranormal capital is a swamp. The Bridgewater Triangle covers roughly 200 square miles of southeastern Massachusetts centered on the Hockomock Swamp, a name and boundary coined by cryptozoologist Loren Coleman in 1970. The case file layers three centuries of colonial reports over older Wampanoag, Pocasset, and Nipmuc records: thunderbird sightings, Bigfoot encounters, giant snakes, ghost lights, UFO activity, and the Pukwudgie, the diminutive humanoid of Wampanoag tradition. Plus a cluster of unexplained deaths and disappearances running through the whole record. The dark layer is documented crime. Freetown-Fall River State Forest, inside the triangle, was the site of multiple murders and Satanic ritual claims through the 1970s and 80s. Add the landmark inventory - Anawan Rock, Dighton Rock, the Solitude Stone, and Profile Rock until it collapsed in 2019 - and you get what portal theorists classify as the Atlantic Northeast counterpart to the Sedona and Bradshaw cluster. Medium confidence. The reports span three centuries and cross from Wampanoag tradition into colonial records and modern case files, and that consistency is the genuinely odd part. None of it comes with instrumentation, because nobody has ever pointed a sensor at the Hockomock. Until someone does, it's a 200 square mile file that stays open.

There's one continent where military activity is banned by treaty, civilian access runs through government logistics, and nobody can just go look around. Antarctica operates under the 1959 Antarctic Treaty, and to portal researchers that legal structure reads less like diplomacy and more like the world's largest restricted area. The claims run through Linda Moulton Howe, the investigative journalist who has spent four decades collecting anomaly reports and whistleblower testimony, and who produced a full documentary called Antarctica: Alien Secrets Beneath the Ice. Her reporting includes military whistleblower testimony about ruins and non-human encounters beneath the ice sheet, plus accounts of massive anomalous structures that became visible as ice melted and were later removed from Google Earth. In the 9-site portal framework, Antarctica is the alternate candidate for the ninth slot. It files at Speculative, the lowest tier I use, and the reasons are structural rather than tribal. The whistleblowers are anonymous, the structures can't be independently checked, and "removed from Google Earth" can't be tested by design. What's real: dozens of nations maintain research stations there despite extreme costs, the treaty regime is genuinely unusual, and it's the one landmass on Earth where you can't verify anything yourself.

The DOJ released 3.5 million pages of Epstein files. The deputy attorney general announced that zero additional prosecutions would result from them. The politician who forced that release is Ro Khanna, a progressive Democrat representing Silicon Valley. His partner was Thomas Massie, a libertarian Republican from rural Kentucky. They co-sponsored the Epstein Files Transparency Act. Republican leadership killed it in September 2025. By November, sustained pressure flipped enough votes to force the Speaker's hand. Trump, who had previously moved to block the release, signed the bill within days of it reaching his desk. That reversal happened fast enough to suggest something changed in his calculation. Who was standing behind Khanna is the real question. OpenSecrets lists his top funding source as the securities and investment industry - Silicon Valley's money engine. He sits at the intersection of the valley's two warring camps: Reid Hoffman and Bill Gates on one side, Elon Musk and Peter Thiel on the other. The Epstein social network overlaps substantially with the pre-rupture tech consensus. The same executives who shared tables with Epstein in the years before his 2019 arrest are now on opposite sides of a political war. The files fight was a proxy war between competing factions of the same power structure, using 3.5 million pages as a weapon. The release happened. The prosecutions never did. That gap is the real subject: youtube.com/watch?v=tIXHaeMS…

The Alaska dark pyramid story starts with a Chinese nuclear bomb. On May 22, 1992, China detonated a roughly 1 megaton device underground at Lop Nor. The seismic energy traveled through the planet and was recorded by military and university arrays in Alaska. Believers say the reflection pattern revealed an enormous artificial void beneath the Alaska Range: a buried pyramid roughly 550 feet tall, larger at the base than Giza, sitting about 50 miles northwest of Denali on a line toward Nome. The USGS logged normal teleseismic arrivals and nothing else. No anomaly exists anywhere in the public seismic record. The theory instead hangs on Douglas Mutschler, a retired Army counterintelligence warrant officer, who says he and fellow soldiers at Fort Richardson watched a local TV news segment in late 1992 announcing the discovery, and that when he later requested the tape, the station told him the segment never aired. He brought the account to Linda Moulton Howe, who broadcast it on Coast to Coast AM on July 26, 2012. The mythology has compounded since: an anonymous Western Electric engineer claiming he worked 700 feet underground at the site, remote viewers describing an inhabited human and ET complex, claims the pyramid could power all of Alaska and Canada, and links to HAARP and the Alaska Triangle's missing persons numbers. The Why Files episode on it has over 1.6 million views. Speculative rating: one vanished news segment, one named witness, anonymous everyone else. To Mutschler's credit, his account has checkable edges - a specific base, a specific year, a specific tape request - and no copy of the segment or station log has surfaced in either direction. A pyramid you can only see with a nuclear bomb is unfalsifiable by design, and that cuts both ways.

I just learned heartbreaking news. Senator Mitch McConnell passed away tomorrow. 😢 Our prayers are with his wife and staffers. He was so young and full of life. This was so unexpected.

The US sky holds two different mysteries, and they need to be separated cleanly. The first is the Tic Tac. In November 2004, Commander David Fravor watched a white object drop from 80,000 feet to sea level in under a second, hover over the ocean, and then disappear when he moved to intercept. No wings, no visible exhaust, no control surfaces. Nothing in human aerospace engineering produces that flight profile. The second mystery is the black triangle. Silent, massive, low-altitude, frequently observed near military installations. These have been reported since the 1980s. They behave exactly like test flights. In 1998, Air Force master sergeant Edgar Fouche described a craft he called the TR-3B: a large black triangle using a mercury-based plasma ring spun at 60,000 RPM, generating a magnetic field that reduced the craft's effective mass by an estimated 89%. In 2016, US Navy inventor Salvatore Pais filed a patent for an 'inertial mass reduction device' using physics nearly identical to what Fouche described nearly two decades earlier. The patent diagram is a triangle. NAVAIR's Chief Technology Officer submitted a signed declaration to the Patent Office confirming the technology is operable. The Skunk Works precedent carries the structural argument. The U-2 was denied for years while generating UFO reports over the American Southwest. The SR-71 was denied while being logged as triangular UFO sightings. The F-117 was denied. The denial-then-declassification pattern is documented government practice across three separate programs. In 2024, the congressional record explicitly stated that some black triangle craft are alien reproduction vehicles: human-built, reverse-engineered from recovered technology. That sentence is in the official record: youtube.com/watch?v=exw6nRPF…
