SRI International

The United States did not want to repeat a familiar Cold War mistake, dismissing a strange field while a rival invested in it first.

In 1972, that concern reached Stanford Research Institute in Menlo Park, California.

Two physicists, Harold Putoff and Russell Targ, began a research effort supported by CIA arrangements.

Their subjects included Ingo Swann, a New York artist who had already participated in parapsychology experiments.

And then you enter into Common Core under the Obama administration.

And then, you know, the, you know, brain rot, tick tock brain, everything else, infiltration from China, which is being bought and paid for by our compromised elites at MIT and Stanford Research Institute and all that.

Like it's all interconnected to actually completely our ability to be critical thinkers.

So that's what we want to do is to be able to formulate... informed well-informed thoughts to come to appropriate reasonable conclusions you know uh and i would say like you know there's a lot of conclusions that are unreasonable you know the the the blind loyalty that's unreasonable factions and tribalisms i don't care if it's maga on one side or whatever a hyper progressive liberalism on it like you can't go to either that's not reasonable that's not reasonable to, to go.

with nothing better to do.

And the report was done for them by Stanford Research Institute.

You know, our most prestigious research university.

So the most prestigious research university in the nation, therefore the most prestigious research university in the world.

So.

Dr.

Dean Radin, who's probably one of the best, he was the guy that led, when I said that the Pentagon, the Joint Chiefs of Staff, tasked Stanford Research Institute with studying this thing called consciousness and where it comes from, the person that they went to was Dr.

Dean Radin.

So we were surrounded by geniuses.

He was involved in funding some of the early research with Uri Geller at SRI International, a major industrial military think tank.

And I sponsored Uri Geller's first major public event in the United States.

We filled Zellerbach Auditorium on the Berkeley campus.

While Preston Nichols was out there telling his tale about Montauk, the CIA was quietly paying psychics to spy.

It started in the early 70s at a place called Stanford Research Institute out in California.

Two physicists, Russell Targ and Hal Putoff, they started testing people who swore that they could see far off places with nothing but their minds.

And the reason serious men in suits put real money behind this was fear.
