Former NASA Scientist Doing Experiment to Prove We Live in a Simulation

Could we be trapped inside a simulated reality, rather than the physical universe we usually assume?

It’s a tantalizing theory, long theorized by philosophers and popularized by the 1999 blockbuster “The Matrix.” What if there was a way to find out once and for all if we’re living inside a computer?

A former NASA physicist named Thomas Campbell has taken it upon himself to do just that. He devised several experiments, as detailed in a 2017 paper published in the journal The International Journal of Quantum Foundations, designed to detect if something is rendering the world around us like a video game.

Now, scientists at the California State Polytechnic University (CalPoly) have gotten started on the first experiment, putting Campbell’s far-fetched hypothesis to the test.

And Campbell has set up an entire non-profit called Center for the Unification of Science and Consciousness (CUSAC) to fund these endeavors. The experiments are “expected to provide strong scientific evidence that we live in a computer-simulated virtual reality,” according to a press release by the group.

Needless to say, it’s an eyebrow-raising project. As always, extraordinary claims will require extraordinary evidence — but regardless, it’s a fun idea.

Trump: Best Evidence of a Second Shooter, a Deep State Sniper?

Two weeks have passed and so much has already been written about the Trump assassination attempt which took place in Butler, Pennsylvania on Saturday July 13, 2024.

The first shots were heard early in the evening at approximately 6:11 pm.

Accounts from different parties have emerged regarding the event.

At this point, the prevailing narrative is that there was a sole shooter, namely Thomas Matthew Crooks.

The abundance of information and speculation surrounding the historic event inevitably adds to the fog of war – if we can borrow that calque.

Fog of war is usually a phrase that is used to describe military operations, but it also serves in the context of information warfare. The following website describes the use of the phrase quite well [with emphasis added]:

“Military operations depend heavily on communications and intelligence to be successful. When one or both of these elements becomes compromised, the result is often called the fog of war. This phrase encompasses all of the confusions and miscalculations that can occur during an actual combat situation. There is also a political version, in which public opinion can be swayed by misinformation or ambiguous reporting of the facts.”

This “political version” which has an objective to sway public opinion by [infusing] misinformation to create “ambiguous reporting of the facts” certainly applies to our examination of the matter at hand.

In addition, one of many purposes of this fog serves to add confusion and to obfuscate.

Moreover, copious amounts of noise is continuously added to the mix which additionally serves to becloud the truth.

Therefore, in this post I have chosen to focus on one key aspect of the assassination attempt, namely that there appears to exist credible evidence which indicates that there was a second shooter.

CIA Denies Conspiracy Theory That It Used MKUltra on Trump Shooter

Was the attempted assassination of former president Donald Trump earlier this month part of a secret CIA program involving brainwashed killers? That’s the claim being made by some far-right accounts on X, but the U.S. intelligence agency is taking the unusual step of directly and forcefully denying the claims.

When it was revealed in the 1970s that the CIA had tried to develop a mind-manipulation program called MKUltra, it sounded like the most absurd conspiracy theory around. Unfortunately, it turned out to be true, even if the suggestive results of the program–and potential for creating Manchurian Candidate-like killers–have been exaggerated in the subsequent decades.

But MKUltra has become quite a meme in the 2020s, with many conspiracy theorists jumping into the fray after Trump was shot at by a 20-year-old during a rally in Butler, Pennsylvania on July 13. The shooter was identified as Thomas Matthew Crooks who acted alone. But some people on social media are trying to claim Crooks was somehow trained by the CIA under an MKUltra program to go after Trump.

“What if US President Joe Biden’s ‘mean tweets’ triggered Thomas Matthew Crooks?” one X account that goes by the name Real Global News tweeted a couple days after the shooting. “Yes like an #MKUltra test subject. I dont want to go into conspiracy theories here but the CIA did mind control experiments like the #ManchurianCandidate. Wait for the trigger before acting.”

Another account with the handle @MJTruthUltra tweeted “MKUltra anyone?” with a list of supposedly suspicious claims about Crooks and the way local police handled the investigation into the assassination attempt against Trump.

The CIA, for its part, decided to push back very publicly against these claims, something the agency doesn’t often do when weird conspiracy theories are floating around on the internet.

“These claims are utterly false, absurd, and damaging,” a CIA spokesperson told Gizmodo on Thursday. “The CIA had no relationship whatsoever with Thomas Crooks. Regarding MKULTRA, the CIA’s program was shut down more than 40 years ago, and declassified information about the program is publicly available on CIA.gov.”

Acoustic Evidence Proves Beyond All Doubt More Than One Shooter

I and others have pointed out astonishing voids in the Secret Service’s protection of Trump. The voids are so egregious that they cannot be blamed on incompetence. Scott Ritter says that intent is the only explanation.

Now these conclusions are backed by acoustic evidence. The fact that bullets travel faster than sound means that the time between hearing the bullet pass the microphone and then the sound allows the calculation of the distance from which the bullet was fired. The time differences reveal different distances. Therefore the conclusion is unavoidable that there was more than one shooter.

Mike Adams walks us through one approximately 30 minute analysis, and Chris Martenson walks us through another 30 minute analysis.

Mike Adams concludes that there were 7 shots fired, 5 from the distance of Crooks’ location, and 2 from two different longer distances.

Martenson makes the point that the shot at Trump that hit a man in the upper row was traveling on an upward trajectory, which implies it did not come from the top of the building where Crooks was positioned.

The first shots are easy to identify. Some of the following shots are polluted with echos and require careful attention.

Both Adams and Martenson provide competent reports. Both say that the analysis requires credentialed independent forensic experts and that the accuracy of the results can be tightened once the calibers of the weapons are known. As I said, let’s hope the bullets were collected by honest and trustworthy authorities.

Keep in mind that expert acoustic analysis of Robert F. Kennedy’s assassination definitely showed two different caliber of weapons fired. There is no doubt about this, but the official story remains “lone gunman.”

The American whore media will brand the factual analysis a “conspiracy theory” and will endorse the official narrative as the truth.

However, at this point the FBI, CIA, Homeland Security, NSA and presstitute media have zero credibility. No one should believe a word they say.

Google Search For ‘Is Biden Dead’ Surges Past ‘Donate to Kamala’

Google search requests for “Is Biden Dead” have surged past “Donate to Kamala” amid growing speculation over Joe Biden’s whereabouts since he dropped out of the 2024 presidential race on Sunday.

A Google Trends graphic shows that in the past 24 hours, searches for “Donate to Kamala” have flatlined while searches for “Is Biden Dead” skyrocketed as questions swirl over his exit from the race when he issued a statement via X and has not been seen publicly since July 17.

Biden’s letter raised even more eyebrows because it did not include an official presidential letterhead and his signature was suspiciously different from his previous signatures.

Biden’s conspicuous absence from the public eye has even prompted media pundits to question why he hasn’t shown his face following his historic announcement.

GOP Senator Probing Trump Assassination Attempt Floats Second Shooter Theory

Republican Senator Ron Johnson has released preliminary findings of his office’s investigation into the assassination attempt of Donald Trump, also floating the idea that there may have been more than one shooter.

Johnson appeared on Fox News Sunday to discuss the findings, and noted “Was it one rifle? Was it more than one? I’ve seen some pretty interesting video on the internet by experts that does certainly call into question what the FBI is telling us about a single shooter.”

Johnson did not say which video he was specifically referring to, but there has been speculation that a figure was filmed atop the water tower close to the rally site.

“So, are you questioning whether or not there was a second shooter?” host Maria Bartiromo asked, adding “Is that what you’re questioning, or if the shooter had a different gun?”

“I saw an extremely convincing video online, I know it’s all over the place,” Johnson replied, adding “There were three distinct shots early on, followed by another five in more staccato, more rapidly fired, and then the final one, which we believe took the shooter out.”

The Left Has Been Trying to Come Up With Wild Conspiracy Theories About the Trump Shooting, but They Are Failing Badly

Ever since the moment that Donald Trump was shot during a rally in Butler, Pennsylvania, the left has been pushing wild conspiracy theories all over the Internet.  Unfortunately for the left, their conspiracy theories are so ridiculous that most rational people immediately see right through them.  Yes, there are legitimate questions that need to be asked about what really happened at that rally, and I have been writing about many of those questions.  But to suggest that the assassination attempt was staged or that Trump was never hit by a bullet is just nuts.

As you will see below, the stuff that the left has been coming up with is straight out of crazy town.

It has been less than a week since Trump was shot, and already “false assassination narratives” have been viewed more than 100 million times on X, and many of those false narratives are being classified as “Blue Anon” conspiracy theories…

So-called ‘BlueAnon’ conspiracy theories — levelled by Left-­wingers — have clearly been thick on the ground this time, compounding the confusion spread by similarly paranoid or just ­trouble-making Trumpites.­

According to research group Institute for Strategic Dialogue, references to false assassination narratives amassed more than 100 million views on X in just 24 hours.

So what are some of the most common “Blue Anon” conspiracy theories that the left has been pushing?

Democrats Have A BlueAnon Conspiracy Problem That Dwarfs QAnon

A third of Biden supporters believe the idea that Saturday’s assassination attempt on former President Trump was staged and not intended to kill him is credible, according to a Morning Consult poll.

33 percent of polled Biden supporters indicated they were open to believing the troubling conspiracy theory, a higher number than the overall contingent polled. Only 20 percent of total people polled said they found the conspiracy credible.

The majority of voters, 62 percent, found the notion to be unsubstantiated, according to Morning Consult.

The concerning conspiracy theory has earned credibility from mainstream left wing voices like MSNBC’s Joy Reid.

“What is the actual injury to Donald Trump’s ear that’s under that bandage? Shouldn’t we know that by now? It’s weird,” Reid speculated in a Twitter video she posted to her 1.9 million Twitter followers.

“We still don’t know for sure whether Donald Trump was hit by a bullet, whether he was hit by glass fragments, whether he was hit by shrapnel, we don’t have those details,” Reid posited.

MSNBC Pushes “Eargate” Conspiracy Theory

Broadcasting in front of a large LED screen, trying to appear as if they were at the RNC Thursday night, MSNBC talking heads, specifically former Republican National Committee Chair turned leftist mouthpiece Michael Steele, suggested that there is some sort of cover up going on with Trump’s ear, and that he might not have even been shot with a bullet.

Leftists have become the conspiracy theorists. They’re currently engaged in two strands of this as regards the attempted assassination of Trump. The totally batshit crazy strand claims that the entire thing was faked by Trump and he had a blood pack. All for the photo op.

But the more ‘moderate’ theory, if you can say that, is that Trump wasn’t grazed by a bullet but by shards of glass from the teleprompter.

MSNBC star Joy Reid pumps more conspiracy theories about Trump assassination attempt: ‘That seems really unusual… it’s weird’

MSNBC’s Joy Reid took to X to share another round of conspiracies about the attempted assassination of Donald Trump – including that he may not have even been shot at all. 

The liberal anchor, 55, listed a number of things she finds ‘weird’ about the shocking episode in Butler, Pennsylvania, and appeared to imply that it was a staged event. 

‘We still don’t know for sure whether Donald Trump was hit by a bullet,’ she began. ‘We know almost nothing.’ 

Although Reid appeared to float some questions that officials have already answered, her remarks come amid mounting pressure on the Secret Service to explain the disastrous security slip that allowed the shooting to occur. 

Reid shared her speculation to social media shortly after she raised eyebrows in a broadcast from the Republican National Convention, as news broke that President Biden tested positive for Covid. 

She compared Biden recovering from the virus in ‘a couple of days’ to Trump standing up and pumping his fist seconds after being shot, feeling they ‘convey the exactly the same thing.’ 

After also branding the assassination attempt a ‘photo op’ in the broadcast, Reid took a similar tune in her X clip as she appeared to speculate that Trump’s Secret Service agents paused to allow Trump to ‘pose’ for an iconic picture. 

‘We don’t know why, for nine full seconds, Donald Trump was allowed to stand back up during an active shooting,’ Reid said.
