I don't know if you noticed but the entire political establishment has been going insane for years which led to the election handing the presidency to Donald Trump, who they want us to believe is out of his mind.
They're right of course, he is out of his mind; but not necessarily for the reason they want us to believe. One far-fetched hypothesis which I'll get to is that he's only pretending to be out of his mind as part of a bizarre conspiracy theory. However participating this insane theory would be as insane as if he were really as insane as he pretends to be.
Or something like that.
If you're not up to date on some of the most far-fetched conspiracy theories out there and find this hard to believe good, you should; and you shouldn't jump on board a bizarre theory without checking the facts carefully. However, as I have reported in several articles there is overwhelming evidence of major unsolved mysteries, including how they moved megaliths over seven hundred tons thousands of years ago when experiments to replicate these efforts cheated with megaliths between ten and forty tons and only had limited success without trying anything bigger. Therefore you shouldn't rush to rule them out either.
I’ve gone into this in previous articles including 107 Wonders of the Ancient World Is Stanton Friedman working for the CIA to refute reverse engineering claims? and most recently UFO Hypothesis Far More Credible Than Catholic Claim of A "Miracle Of The Sun" where I explained that the incident at Fatima was either one of the biggest UFO sightings in history or another unexplained mystery. Some of these articles consider the possibility that alien technology was retrieved at Roswell, as claimed by Philip Corso, and reversed engineered. Additional possibilities include claims of contact with aliens and that there is intentional sharing of technology with them and perhaps some kind of deal struck. These theories have their problems; however they do address some of the unsolved mysteries that have taken place going back thousands of years.
One of the biggest problems with some of these theories is how far-fetched the technology to travel from one star system to another; however there has been an enormous advance in technology over the past several decades that includes developing technologies that were previously considered impossible. After thousands of years with very slow development of technology, all of a sudden it has been leaping forward at epidemic levels.
As for the possibility Steve Bannon providing Propaganda To Enable Climate Change Research Project, for starters, if you believe that climate Change is a result of human activity, which most traditional scientists do, then this is by definition a form of Geoengineering, although it may be unintentional. It doesn't mean that these scientists can control weather, although there are plenty of conspiracy theories that claim that there are efforts to do this. However if there is a possibility that weather can be controlled by human activity, and if there have been some form of advanced intelligence influencing our society since the megaliths were moved thousands of years ago, it is possible that this unknown advanced intelligence might have known about this possibility and realized that in order to research it they might have to allow it to happen.
Most people don't know it but before Steve Bannon began providing propaganda for Climate Change deniers he was involved in running Biosphere 2 which was funded by Ed Bass, a billionaire who wanted to support research that would help understand how to create a closed environment on a planet like Mars, if they ever sent people there, and study Climate Change as well. Ed Bass and many researchers involved in Biosphere 2 were admittedly trying to study the greenhouse effect and learn how to reverse Global Warming or Climate Change, with Steve Bannon's help, and later on he began working for projects supported by a different billionaire, Robert Mercier, and oil executives that have a short term interest in denying Climate Change.
This is insane since it isn't even in the best interests of the oil companies to destroy the environment.
Are they suicidal, and willing to take the human race with them? There is plenty evidence to support this hypothesis, although some people might just explain it as ideological fanaticism; however with the science so obviously opposed to this and even Rex Tillerson, former CEO of ExxonMobil, taking a more rational view than the fanatical Trump administration it might be worth considering different possibilities.
Some problems should have been obvious even before they began this project, including the choice of Arizona to build it, which turned out to be partially responsible for their problems. If they were studying an isolated environment for a colony on Mars a cooler location farther north at a higher atmosphere, like either Canada or the Montana area, would almost certainly have been a better choice. One of the problems they had was that it costed $3 million just to cool Biosphere 2, which they should have anticipated in the Arizona location, which would have been much warmer than Montana. I'm guessing that the reason they chose Arizona might have been that they were more interested in studying Climate Change, which for all I know might have been more effective in Arizona.
The following article indicates that Steve Bannon wasn't always a fanatical Climate Change denier, and some of the people he was working with hoped that he would provide a positive influence on the Trump administration on the subject of Climate Change, although he clearly has done the opposite since then:
Trump's Chief Strategist Steve Bannon Ran a Massive Climate Experiment 12/07/2016
BEFORE STEVE BANNON was Donald Trump’s campaign advisor, a right-wing media mogul, or a conservative Hollywood documentarian, he helped a group of climate scientists steer a controversial experiment in the Arizona desert back from financial chaos. Twenty-five years ago, a New Agey-experiment called Biosphere 2 set out to recreate life on another planet with eight people locked in a giant glass habitat. But it ended bitterly with allegations of financial fraud, scientific goof-ups, and a power struggle outside the dome.
Now some of the scientists who worked on Biosphere 2 hope that Bannon—who has been dogged by allegations of ties to the white nationalist alt-right movement—might steer Trump back from the edge of climate denial, and perhaps forge a better deal between the US and other nations intent on reducing heat-trapping greenhouses gases. That might seem far-fetched for someone whose website, Breitbart News, calls climate change a hoax and those who study it corrupt. But these scientists point to Bannon’s time as a successful turn-around manager of Biosphere 2 in the mid-1990s as proof that he understands climate science—and may not be as much of a climate denial zealot as the folks who write for his website.
Biosphere 2 was designed to replicate life on Earth. Inside a massive enclosed glass structure, environmental scientists built separate chambers or biomes stocked with plants from desert, forest, grassland, and ocean habitats. They wanted to create a self-sustaining ecosystem—90 feet high, with 3.14 acres under glass—that required no inputs from the outside. If the researchers could figure out how to keep the giant hothouse sustainable, perhaps they could one day grow food on the Moon, Mars, or a long-distance space journey.
Funded by billionaire Ed Bass, Biosphere 2 (Biosphere 1 being planet Earth) got off to an auspicious beginning in 1991. Eight so-called biospherians—four men and four women dressed in matching blue jumpsuits—embarked on a two-year "mission" inside the dome, along with 4,000 plant and animal species. The crew maintained daily contact with scientists and managers through a direct video link, but otherwise slept, ate, and worked together just as they would on a separate planet. The scientific mission was to see if the team could grow their own food, keep the flora and fauna alive, and maintain a balanced air supply. .....
“There was mistrust and probably some poor management of the finances by the people who were in there before,” says Tony Burgess, one of the few scientists who worked for both Bannon and the former leadership. The biosphere's culture, at the beginning, was that of idealistic space hippies building a better world. But Bannon shifted the focus, as a clear-eyed financier of climate research. “Steve came in and tried to change it around," says Burgess. "It was costing $3 million a year just to cool the place, and the idea was to see how could it pay for itself. That began a long struggle to see how a closed system could justify itself in mainstream terms.”
Bannon never expressed personal opinions about climate change, but he did sell the idea of Biosphere 2 as a climate laboratory to the press and potential investors, including in a 1995 interview with C-SPAN. “What a lot of the scientists who are studying global change and the effects of greenhouse gases, many of them feel the Earth’s atmosphere in 100 years is what Biosphere 2’s atmosphere is today,” Bannon said in the interview. “This allows them to study the impact of enhanced CO2 on humans, plants, and animals.”
With the Biosphere 2 bleeding money, Bannon decided to shut down the crew habitat. He persuaded a timber company to remove one of the biomes and replant it with poplar trees in one habitat to measure how quickly commercially harvested trees would grow in a carbon dioxide-rich atmosphere. “They shot right up,” says Burgess. At times, Burgess said, carbon dioxide levels reached up to 4,000 parts per million inside the biosphere, ten times current levels on Earth.
Bernd Zabel, who managed construction of the dome in the late 1980s and spent six months inside the dome, compared Bannon to a “hot-shot” fireman who parachutes into a forest fire. “Everyone understood his mission,” says Zabel, now a retired engineer living in the Tucson area. “He was sent in by the owner to see what can be done with Biosphere 2. Steve was the one with idea to get more scientists involved.” With more than 100 employees, Biosphere 2 wasn’t just a backyard fantasyland. It added a conference center, café, and links to academia. ....
Bruno Marino, an isotopic chemist who helped track atmospheric compounds inside Biosphere 2, spent a lot of time working with Bannon in 1994 and 1995. He remembers him keeping a private office at the Arizona compound stocked with dozens books about climate science, including The Biosphere, a 1926 book by Russian mineralogist Vladimir Vernadsky that first sketched out the scientific theory that living things, including humans, can change the planet, just as much as geological or physical forces.
“At the time I didn’t think much of it,” says Bruno, who now runs a small environmental consulting firm in Cambridge, Mass., and last saw Bannon about 10 years ago. “It may mean he was interested in climate issue more broadly. I don’t know. I hope maybe he will have some role to play in Trump’s climate policy moving forward.” Complete article

Steve Bannon’s Weird Journey From Biosphere Champion to Climate Denying Crank 03/08/2017
As climate scientists go, Wally Broecker is famous. The 85-year-old geochemist and Columbia University professor not only coined the term “global warming,” but was one of the first researchers to accurately predict how much the Earth’s temperature would change because of fossil fuel burning. He discovered the Ocean Conveyor Belt, which moves water around the globe, and figured out that those currents help regulate the global climate. “He has singlehandedly pushed more understanding than probably anybody in our field,” one colleague said in a 2012 profile.
“He was an intense guy,” Broecker told the New Republic in a phone interview. “I actually kinda liked him.” ....
“He knew what we were doing, and knew we were worried about the consequences of global warming,” said Broecker, who managed and directed Biosphere 2’s scientific operations from Columbia’s Lamont-Doherty Earth Observatory. But Bannon never publicly questioned the science during his time at Biosphere 2, and Broecker never thought twice about it—that is until years later, when he read in the paper that Bannon would be Trump’s right-hand man.
Reading up on Bannon’s politics, Broecker began to worry that Bannon might not understand the scientific consensus on climate change. So he contacted Bannon’s brother, Chris, who still works at Biosphere 2, and asked him to pass along a paper Broecker had written about how to solve the climate crisis. “Chris said he’d pass it along, and I’m sure he did,” Broecker said. “But I never heard back.” Trump’s cabinet is full of contenders as America’s most dangerous climate villain. EPA administrator Scott Pruitt, after all, has alarmingly close ties to the fossil fuel industry, and Secretary of State Rex Tillerson used to run Exxon Mobil, the largest oil company in the world. But so far, both Pruitt and Tillerson have pushed back against some of Trump’s more anti-environment policies. Bannon has not; in fact, he appears to be the one pushing them forward. .....
If Bannon is a climate conspiracy theorist, he wasn’t always—at least not openly. “It certainly wasn’t clear that he was against climate research or climate mitigation,” said Bruno Marino, an isotopic chemist who was the scientific director at Biosphere 2 from 1994 to 1996. In fact, Marino said, Bannon “seemed intellectually intrigued by the broader issues we were studying,” which included the effects of global warming and increased carbon in the atmosphere. ......
“The biggest factor when I think about Steve is, how could he not have brought with him today something of what he learned then? That doesn’t compute for me,” Marino said. “He must know. He must have some deeper thoughts about climate change than he’s letting on. I don’t think he’s fully opened up about what he’s learned during that period.” Complete article

Apparently there have been conspiracy theories about Biosphere 2 for decades, for one reason or another, from both those that believe in Climate Change and those that deny it. The Climate Change deniers claim that it's a conspiracy to prevent us from burning fossil fuels and drive up the cost of gas; however they routinely ignore that even if this was true there's still an enormous amount of pollution related to burning of fossil fuels and, like Climate Change, the majority of the pollution is destroying the poorest people in the world, and in many cases some of the worst pollution and greatest impact from Climate Change like Hurricane Harvey, which is hitting Texas now are impacting some of the most religious people as well. As I pointed out in Dobson’s Indoctrination Machine indoctrination tactics recommended by James Dobson are routinely used to teach children from a young age and believe what their leaders say without question at an early age; and many of these religious leaders are in total denial about the damage being done by pollution or Climate Change, even though they claim to be "pro-Life." James Dobson and a surprising number of other religious leaders also endorsed Donald Trump even though his alleged faith in religion is incredibly shallow and easy for anyone with a minimal amount of critical thinking skills to see through.
If this is all being done solely for greed, and the people controlling the oil companies are that fanatical they must be having a good laugh at how they can manipulate all these religious people so that they could increase their profits in the short term while destroying the environment in the long term.
Can they really be that insane? If not something even more absurd or hard to believe might be going on.
As far fetched as this sounds to most rational people, it should be clear that, for one reason or another, the political establishment is behaving an an absurd and irrational manner, and it is having a devastating impact on the environment which will only get worse unless some major changes are made. This doesn't mean that we should believe every conspiracy theory like the most common ones about chemtrails which are supposedly part of a geoengineering effort by our government. Most skeptics provide what seems like a rational explanation debunking this, and they're probably right. However the same experts claim that carbon-dioxide and other chemicals are a major contributing factor for Climate Change and they also reported that CFCs were responsible for the destruction of the ozone layer, which clearly implies that many of the chemicals we're using with advanced technology on a large scale has a negative impact on the environment. This means that even if these chemtrails aren't having nearly as big an impact as the conspiracy theorists claim that along with large amounts of other chemicals being used for other reasons they might have some impact. Furthermore the absurd sounding conspiracy theories about exaggerated irrational theories enable the political and media establishment to create stereotypes about less exaggerated theories that might be closer to the truth; and in some cases there might even be a more far-fetched conspiracy closer to the truth.
I have no doubt that this seems like an insane conspiracy theory to most people; but, one way or another, some of the most fanatical conspiracy theorists are now close advisers to the White House; and this administration couldn't have been elected if not for the obsession coverage that the mainstream media has provided them, while refusing to cover the most credible environmental scientists and, at times, portraying environmentalists as "Eco-terrorists." The same media establishment is obsessed with a variety of their own irrational conspiracy theories including the one they're obsessing about with the Russia involvement in rigging the election, which is trivial compared to their own propaganda.
With all these conspiracy theorists controlling just about everything and ignoring some of the most effective solutions to environmental destruction like wind, solar or geothermal, which most people hardly heard of, it should be clear that something is wrong even if the most far-fetched ones turn out to be false. Even the highest profile people that claim they're trying to protect the environment and educate the public often have financial ties to the oil companies that are destroying it like Al Gore who got the Nobel Peace Prize for his work on that earned a fortune from Occidental Petroleum and sold Current TV to corporations with close ties to the oil industry. When Al Gore, Barack Obama, Hillary Clinton are in power they routinely defend the interests of Wall Street and the oil companies, even if they campaign against them; in Barack Obama's case he didn't stand up to the Keystone pipeline until there were massive protests against it, and he want's credit it for it like other hypocritical politicians.
There's no doubt that the people that are making the decisions about policy impacting the environment are the ones making all the profits; while the destruction caused by these decisions is almost all being done to the poorest people and some of these rich reporters, like Chris Matthews, occasionally even slip and tell the public about how he's "so glad we had that storm last week because I think the storm was one of those things. No, politically, I should say — not in terms of hurting people. The storm brought in possibilities for good politics,” after Hurricane Sandy killed over a hundred people. Hurricane Katrina was even worse killing over a thousand, possibly close to two thousand; and there are even worse storms killing larger numbers in poorer parts of the world, where storms or earthquakes often kill tens of thousands of people.
Whether it's environmental damage or many other disasters there is research to show how to prevent many of them and minimize the damage for many others; however for one reason or another they're not reporting the best research to the majority of the public. There should be no doubt that we need more disclosure of whatever secrets the government are keeping and more reporting on the best research to educate the public about the most effective solutions to problems, yet it isn't happening; and their excuses aren't even credible anymore!
A close look at Steve Bannon's record indicates that he seems to be working for one eccentric billionaire or another selling his beliefs to the highest bidder, and that these eccentric billionaires are constantly making bizarre decisions that have major impact on all of us. This isn't limited to Steve Bannon; there are plenty of additional examples that could easily be researched that might support this hypothesis, although they could be interpreted to support other claims as well so careful consideration should be given before coming to a final conclusion. Checking the financial income of Alex Jones, another conspiracy theorists denying Climate Change and enabling pollution, could also be worthwhile. Apparently he's selling all kinds of dietary supplements, which as a explained in past articles are being used for undisclosed research in many cases.
And theories about geoengineering apparently haven't always been treated as fringe, and are now increasingly being considered by mainstream researchers, for better or worse, as indicated in the following article:
What Is Geoengineering and Why Is It Considered a Climate Change Solution? 04/06/2010
When a report on climate change hit the U.S. president's desk, the suggestion was not to cut greenhouse gas emissions. Rather, scientific advisors counseled intervention via technology in the climate system itself—a practice now known as geoengineering. And the president was not Barack Obama, George W. Bush or even Bill Clinton—it was Lyndon Johnson in 1965.
"This generation has altered the composition of the atmosphere on a global scale through…a steady increase in carbon dioxide from the burning of fossil fuels," President Johnson told Congress in February of that year. To address the problem, his science advisors suggested spreading reflective particles over 13 million square kilometers of ocean in order to reflect an extra 1 percent of sunlight away from Earth.
Today, with climate change accelerating and little being done to curb the greenhouse gas emissions, some scientists have resurrected the idea of "deliberate large-scale manipulation of the planetary environment," as the U.K.'s Royal Society puts it. After all, it's an idea nearly as old as the understanding of the physical principles behind global warming itself. Swedish chemist Svante Arrhenius thought that global warming would be a boon to humanity and therefore fossil fuel burning should be encouraged, after calculating by hand the likely temperature impact of continued coal-burning and rising carbon dioxide (CO2) concentrations in the late 19th century—roughly matching the United Nations Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change and their computer models more than a century later.
That's why 175 scientists and other interested folks (including companies looking to profit from geoengineering) gathered in the Asilomar conference center near the end of March to try to repeat the success of molecular biologists who gathered there in 1975 to reassure a skeptical public about genetic engineering. Ultimately, the gathered would-be geoengineers released a statement calling for, among other things, "further research in all relevant disciplines to better understand and communicate whether additional strategies to moderate future climate change are, or are not, viable, appropriate and ethical."

Lyndon Johnson's speech was made before the vast majority of the public understood Climate Change and it hardly received any attention at all from the media until a couple of decades later. It indicates that there was some consideration of geoengineering long before the public was paying attention. And, if as some researchers including Philip Corso, were partly correct about contact with aliens it could have been the early stages of planning on a hypothetical research project. This is one of many stories that may have been told that are related to this hypothesis, but were almost ignored for decades.
If you think this is fringe or irrational you might be right; however it is increasingly being treated as a viable option by many people in the scientific community and they often have conflicts of interests and an enormous amount of political power, and may be ignoring simpler more rational solutions that are proven to work far more efficiently.
As I explained in the opening there are many major unsolved mysteries going back thousands of years that still haven't been resolved. It may be difficult to provide hard evidence to prove that this is linked to current events; however there still has to be an explanation for them, and it is also difficult to rule it out. There are also an enormous amount of new unsolved mysteries constantly happening, like why Steve Bannon would have behaved as if he were staying on at the White House in an interview given just a few days before he resignation if he supposedly knew that he would be leaving. He's also apparently a supporter of Zionism and anti-Semites at the same time; and he may have ties to Sheldon Adelson, who he may be introducing at a Zionist dinner, as well.
The closer you look at the news the more irrational and contradictory it seems; and they don't even appear to be trying to make it seem sensible anymore. Instead they keep throwing one irrationals story after another, hoping no one will be able to keep track of it all; and it's hard to imagine how many if any people can.
As I first reported in "Yes Virginia There Is A Trump And Clinton Conspiracy" there are far more similarities between the characteristics of "The Whore of Babylon" and Hillary Clinton, and a growing amount of similarities between Donald Trump and the "Beast." Instead of falling apart these similarities grew especially with the outrageous behavior at the Al Smith dinner and him winning the election when it initially appeared as if they were rigging it for Hillary Clinton. A possible version of this theory involved the possibility that there really might be some ancient aliens that influenced the construction of monuments built megaliths thousands of years ago and influenced our early religions. I still try to be a rational skeptic; however the official version of truth is becoming increasingly as insane if not more insane than many conspiracy theories, so at times being a rational skeptic may mean being skeptical of the official version of the truth.
If there is something to this bizarre conspiracy then at least there is some potential for benefit if the technology allegedly shared with corporations from aliens, as discussed in some previous articles, is partially true, assuming it is disclosed and used for the benefit of all not just those that are controlling the way it is being distributed. As mentioned in several of my previous articles this might involve some communication with the aliens and a possible deal of some sort. However if they did agree to provide cooperation in return for the technology there is no guarantee that the aliens provided they might have agreed to participate in a Climate Change research project intentionally. This doesn't mean that they were completely honest with those they shared this technology with though. If these alleged aliens exist and made a deal with the ruling class after the Roswell incident; it may be the latest in many alleged deals or Biblical "Covenants," and a close look at history indicates that if any of these Biblical covenants really are true they came at a much bigger cost than people were led to believe, and that any unknown advanced intelligence perceived as "God" allowed many civilizations to collapse and there's no reason to believe that they wouldn't do it again.
If it is a research project into Climate Change there's no telling how much damage they may want to conduct or if they might go to far. Also the assumption that they wouldn't take it to too big of an extreme is irrational since if this alleged unknown advanced intelligence does exist it allowed the Crusades, inquisitions, holocaust, Hiroshima and Nagasaki bombings and much worse. If it suits their purposes they've already indicated that they would be willing to allow more atrocities and use deception to accomplish their goals.
With or without a far-fetched conspiracy theory the people that control the country have repeatedly demonstrated with their actions that they seem to consider the vast majority of the public expendable, except when they serve the purposes of the wealthy, or when they stand up for their rights and don't allow the wealthy to take advantage of them. If there is an unknown advanced intelligence, and he was as benevolent as religious people say, he could have and would have spoken out against this in a manner that everyone would understand. By declining to do the this hypothetical God has demonstrated that, if he exists, he also has an ulterior motive.
Even if none of this is true then it's still far more rational to protect the environment to the best of our ability with the cleanest energy possible, and to reform the democratic process so that everyone gets the news and education they need to participate in the process!
Even though a large portion of the sources discussing Geoengineering or even weaponizing of weather seem like unreliable conspiracy theorists there are apparently a surprising number of people that think there is some degree of control of the weather that man can do, in addition to carbon dioxide contributing to climate change Russia the United States and china have all done research into "cloud seeding" which supposedly increases rain at least a little. If scientists working with the most powerful governments believe this is at least partially possible and they're researching it then it could have an impact on Climate Change and should be exposed. This is especially true when they refuse to implement the safest ways to protect the environment that isn't based on fringe science!
The following articles show that at least some degree of research is going on to study climate or weather control from sources that aren't fringe:
Wikipedia: Weather warfare
Wikipedia: Cloud seeding
Wikipedia: Operation Popeye
