Stick It to the Man for Fun Conspiracy theory was never so much fun. Put on your tin foil hat and have a seat and shut up and talk.

Through partnerships with bio-labs and Big Pharma they have had a program set up since Trump's inauguration to rapidly respond to pandemics. But money shows up and the public interest takes a back seat.

The Fall or Dive of Sydney Gottlieb and Company Book Review: Poisoner in Chief: Sidney Gottlieb and the CIA Search for Mind Control by Stephen Kinzer. Now here's a portrait of e-villl. Gottlieb was given free rein by the US government to bring in "ex"-Nazis to set up schemes to manipulate, torture and kill. He was the father of MK-Ultra. Kinzer paints a grim picture and lampoons Dick Cheney and his 'taking the gloves off' moment. These guys were the real deal.
