Dr. Juliette Engel shares her harrowing account of surviving the CIA's notorious MK-Ultra program, claiming her father sold her into it at age six. In her memoir Sparky: Surviving Sex Magick, Engel recounts years of alleged torture, sexual abuse, and mind-control experiments before escaping at 17. From CIA mind-control allegations to her crusade against international child trafficking, Engel exposes what she believes is a sinister network of exploitation operating in the shadows of American intelligence.

The Anchormen peek behind the curtain of the GOP Midterm Convention. Can Republicans convince voters MAGA is still the agent of change? Plus, is the Cartel behind an army of unlicensed street-food vendors plaguing San Diego? And could A.I. wipe out humanity within a decade? Anthropic researchers are publicly sounding the alarm.
