According to a former White House official for Bush, the US federal government has secretly spent trillions building doomsday bunkers to house the rich and powerful.

The official, 74-year-old Catherine Austin Fitts, appeared on an episode of Tucker Carlson‘s podcast to discuss the bunkers, which were allegedly commissioned in 1998. Fitts had previously served as Assistant Secretary of Housing and Urban Development during former President George H. W. Bush’s term. She claimed that $21 trillion in taxpayer dollars were funneled into the project between 1998 and 2015.

Fitts, who also made many wild claims, such as that the Covid-19 vaccine had DNA-modifying ingredients, provided no evidence for her claim other than a 2017 report from Michigan State University economist Mark Skidmore indicating that “unauthorized spending” was uncovered during that year. After two years of going through records related to documented underground bases, Fitts compared her research against the missing cash and her guess on how many facilities were built.

According to her “research,” the bases are connected by an elaborate transportation system powered by a secret military energy system.

“I’m convinced this energy exists,” Fitts said, “If you look at a lot of high-speed ships, flying around the planet, they’re not using classic electricity.”

Despite Fitts’ outrageous claims, there are elaborate underground government bases across the US. During the Cold War, the Cheyenne Mountain Complex was built inside a Colorado mountain to serve as a base of operations. Today, the US Space Force uses it.

Between the 1950s and 1990s, a bunker was built beneath the Greenbrier resort in West Virginia, intended to house Congress in the event of a calamity. It is operated in secrecy. Fitts claims that the 170 secret bunkers are applied to bases on US soil and around the coastline, alleging that more exist worldwide.
