Exposing the Dark Secrets of the CIA: Undercover History Updates (Full Episode) | Nat Geo

Dr.Docs' Take

This is the file where the conspiracy theory grew up and graduated into the declassified record. The CIA really did dose unwitting citizens with hallucinogens and chase mind control under MKUltra, and this lays out the actual receipts. I never needed convincing that the agency plays dirty, but watching the official paperwork admit it out loud is a different flavor of chilling. When the villains keep their own minutes, you do not need a theory anymore.

It's the Cold War's dirty little secret: a terrifying account of the CIA's efforts to expose unknowing members of the public to biological agents, hallucinogenic drugs and psychological techniques aimed at mastering the art of mind control.
