Ex-Bush Official Exposes Secret Doomsday Bunkers for Elite, Stunning Tucker Carlson
Former Official Alleges Secret U.S. Prep for "Extinction Event"
A former Bush administration official has sparked controversy by claiming the U.S. government is secretly preparing for a catastrophic global event. Catherine Austin Fitts, who served as Assistant Secretary of Housing and Urban Development, alleged on Tucker Carlson’s podcast that $21 trillion in unaccounted funds was funneled into covert projects from 1998 to 2015.
Fitts described a network of 170 underground facilities across the U.S. and beneath oceans, linked by a hidden transportation system. “These are designed to protect elites during a near-extinction scenario,” she claimed, citing potential triggers like climate disasters, resource collapse, or societal breakdown. While she declined to join the alleged bunkers, Fitts warned of a shadowy group she calls “Mr. Global,” which she accuses of orchestrating mass control, including through COVID vaccines.

Financial Mysteries and Missing Funds
Fitts’ claims tie into a 2017 report by economist Mark Skidmore, who uncovered $21 trillion in unauthorized spending across the Defense and Housing departments. Skidmore, who collaborated with Fitts, found the U.S. Army alone had $6.5 trillion in unaccounted adjustments in 2015—over 50 times its approved budget. While Skidmore’s research focused on financial irregularities, Fitts insists the funds built secret infrastructure. “Where’s all this money going?” she questioned, pointing to her website, MissingMoney.com, which documents alleged discrepancies.

Controversial Claims and Skepticism
Fitts also made headlines for alleging COVID vaccines contain “mystery ingredients” that could alter DNA or cause infertility—a claim widely debunked by scientists. Though her assertions about underground bases lack concrete evidence, she doubled down, stating the U.S. possesses advanced energy technology withheld from the public. “This energy could be weaponized, making people harder to control,” she speculated.
Carlson pressed Fitts on logistics, asking how such facilities sustain life. She argued the government has access to “breakthrough energy” powering secret transport systems, but offered no proof. Critics, including fact-checkers, note her theories conflate financial anomalies with unverified conspiracies.
Balancing Fact and Speculation
While Skidmore’s findings highlight alarming budget gaps, officials attribute them to accounting errors, not covert projects. The Pentagon has previously acknowledged “plausible” financial mismanagement but denies funding secret bases. Fitts’ narrative, blending real data with dystopian speculation, continues to fuel debate about transparency and power.

In an era of existential fears, Fitts’ claims—however unproven—reflect growing public distrust in institutions. As she put it: “If you control energy and resources, you control the future.” Whether fact or fiction, the story underscores the enduring allure of hidden truths.
