 Holy Kamolies! Card number 17. LSD and the CIA. Are we looking at Timothy Leary? Look at this! Look at this! Dick Helms and Timothy Leary! Holy Kamolies! Holy, there's so many discussions about who Timothy Leary is. Wow, wow, wow. Let's read two more cards, gang. There's 36 cards in this, and we're gonna do the next 18 later. This is number 17. We're gonna read number 18. There's a Vatican there. We're gonna read that, and we're gonna read this, and then we're gonna call the stream because we're coming off the two hours for this game. Okay, let's check this out. Card number 17. LSD and the CIA. In 1952, the CIA began mind control experiments under the code name MKUltra. The project, brain child of Richard Helms, included dosing unsuspecting Americans with LSD. That also should include Canadians. They did it to Canadians as well. This stuff came out later, after this 1991. The U.S. government settled with the Canadians that sued them a few years ago. The families. Okay, so included dosing unsuspecting Americans with LSD. Some were permanently disabled, but the experiments continued for 12 years, by which time Helms ran the CIA's quote dirty tricks and court department. While Helms was CIA director in 1966-1973, the agency mounted a massive campaign to discredit the anti-war movement. Helms destroyed most MKUltra documents in 1973, so it is hard to know if the huge increase in LSD supply during his tenure was a CIA covert action, but a close look at Assad Guru, Timothy Leary, whose quote turn on, turn in, tune in, dropout, end quote, motto was anti-theatrical to the new left raises questions. Leary's patron from 1963 to 1969 was stockbroker Billy Mellon Hitchcock, a session of the wealthy Mellon family. Hitchcock invested drug profits from the brotherhood of eternal love, a leery connected LSD dealing motorcycle gang, in mob link resorts international and at the Bohemian base castle rank, a CIA mafia money laundering. From 1969 to 1971, with Leary's blessing, Ronald Stark supplied 50 million doses of LSD to the brotherhood. The gang was busted in 1971, but by then Stark was in Europe with their money. Jailed in Italy in 1975, he was released in 1979, when the judge found, quote, a series of scruplessly unneumerated proofs, end quote, that Stark had been a CIA agent, quote, from 1960 onwards, end quote. Leary was jailed, escaped to Algeria, and linked up with alleged agent provocateur, Edge Elbridge Cleaver. He later returned home and served time. By the 1980s, he was touring the lecture circuit with Watergate burglar G. Gordon Libby. Oh my god, crazy, I'm crazy. This is a PhD thesis game, PhD thesis, these trading cards.
