MK-Ultra: America's Hidden War on Its Own People

In the shadowy corridors of power during the Cold War, the U.S. government orchestrated one of the most chilling and unethical programs in history: MK-Ultra. What began as a covert attempt to counteract alleged Soviet brainwashing spiraled into a horrifying campaign of psychological manipulation, drug experiments, and human rights violations—perpetrated not on foreign enemies, but on unsuspecting American citizens.

Through a veil of secrecy, the CIA conducted these experiments in universities, prisons, hospitals, and even within private homes, leaving a trail of broken lives and unanswered questions. This was not just a breach of trust; it was a war waged on the very people the government was sworn to protect.
