Last week, we had the privilege of hosting Walter Bosley, who himself was part of the GATE program. In our overtime conversation, Walter revealed his belief that the GATE program could be linked to MK Ultra programming. It was a mind-blowing discussion.

Now, it's time for Elle to take the stage and share her firsthand experiences within the GATE program. We talk about how she got involved, how she started connecting the dots that something might be off, her memories such as spending a night sleeping next to a centuries-old mummy in a possible ritual, and how he father might tie into this whole thing with his military background.
