The Hidden Empire: Esoteric Physics, UFOs & Consciousness | Jason Samosa

Summary

Researcher Jason Samosa argues that a private postwar network, the World Commerce Corporation, may be the real-world model for the shadowy Majestic-style 'Maynard Consortium' in Tom DeLonge's fiction, and that it absorbed Nazi money, industry and possibly advanced technology. He traces links from wartime intelligence chiefs and bankers through drug trafficking, the mafia and figures like Robert Maxwell and Jeffrey Epstein, suggesting criminals rather than governments may control UFO secrets. The conversation then turns to occult technology, Prometheus mythology, theosophy inside Lockheed Martin, and the idea that consciousness itself is the true path to disclosure.

Key takeaways

• 1The 'Maynard Consortium' in Tom DeLonge's 2015 novel is presented as a coded version of the World Commerce Corporation, founded in 1945 with Nazi-linked money and said to have had about 450 subsidiaries tied to arms and drug trafficking.
• 2WCC figures named include Wild Bill Donovan (OSS), Charles Hambro (SOE and Hambros bank), William Stephenson (British Security Coordination) and Nelson Rockefeller (Office for the Coordination of Inter-American Affairs). Thomas McKittrick of the Bank for International Settlements is also named for approving Reichsbank gold transfers.
• 3State Department whistleblower Matthew Brown reportedly told George Knapp that whoever has made progress reverse-engineering UAP technology is not the government. General Neil McCasland, a DeLonge advisor, allegedly said nothing that has crashed is extraterrestrial and pointed to the Prometheus myth as key to understanding the phenomenon.
• 4Lockheed's Jim Ryder reportedly spoke at the Lucis Trust (originally the Lucifer Trust, founded by Alice Bailey) and read Blavatsky at work. Jeffrey Kripal says Lockheed executive Charles Chase flew him to MIT to speak about human levitation.
• 5Books cited include Peter Levenda's 'Sinister Forces' and 'Unholy Alliance', 'Hitler's Monsters', Manly P. Hall's 'The Secret Teachings of All Ages', and Jake Barber's alleged pseudonymous 'Sentinels of the Ether'.
• 6Otto Skorzeny allegedly trained Mossad in 1963. The PROMIS software scandal, linked to Robert Maxwell, is described as giving its controllers covert access to sensitive sites such as Sandia Labs.

Transcript excerpt

I think the big shock is that we tend to view our governments as recruiting criminals. I think what we're looking at is criminals running the world. I think that's the big shock. I think the criminal element is vast and it's big. You go back to 2017, we were kind of going through this process of disclosure or whatever you want to call it. You know, they're like on Fox News saying, it's not Russian, it's not Chinese, it's not our own technology. And you're like, okay, well, you're naming nation states, right? Is it possible that it's human, some of it, I don't think it all is, by the way, I do think something else is going on, but is some of it human technology that doesn't belong to a nation? That's a thread that I think might have something heavy at the end of it. We just seem so torn and confused. It's like we're a glitch in the system, like our source code was edited and the game doesn't function properly anymore. I don't like to be religious about those texts and view it as like, this is the secret truth that's been hidden. The reality is they all paint a very similar picture. This idea that mankind was created in a sort of a balanced system that the gods controlled and it worked. But then we went after this extra knowledge or Prometheus comes down and brings fire or whichever version you want to look at and suddenly the system stops working because we may have gained this evolution, but through that, we now don't quite fit into this world. And that's where this idea of going to the stars, right? ...
