Once You Build for the CIA You Never Stop
Summary
The speaker argues that the disappearance of Malaysia Airlines Flight 370 (MH370) was not a crash but a covert operation involving the CIA and Lockheed Martin's Skunk Works. Citing Ben Rich’s book on Skunk Works, the speaker posits that the close, classified partnership between the CIA and defense contractors created a 'breakaway civilization' that hoards advanced technology, including plasma orbs and fusion systems, preventing public commercialization.
The speaker asserts that the 'orbs' seen in MH370 footage are real, human-made military assets developed by Lockheed Martin for the CIA, rather than extraterrestrial craft.
The video heavily criticizes mainstream UFO disclosure narratives, particularly those promoted by figures like Steven Greer, arguing that the focus on aliens is a distraction from the reality of classified human technology. The speaker challenges Elon Musk’s skepticism about defense contractors holding back breakthroughs, using the Skunk Works model to explain why companies like Lockheed Martin, Boeing, and Northrop would prioritize classified military contracts over open-market competition with entities like SpaceX.
The speaker concludes that the 'mafia-like' nature of this intelligence-contractor relationship ensures that once technology is developed for the government, it remains classified and inaccessible to the public, validating the existence of a deep state-controlled technological monopoly.
Key Claims (5)
MH370 was intercepted and teleported/destroyed by CIA-operated plasma orbs built by Lockheed Martin Skunk Works.
Evidence: Ben Rich’s book on Skunk Works describing the CIA-Air Force partnership; the existence of Gorgon Stare surveillance systems.
The relationship between the CIA and defense contractors (Lockheed Martin, Boeing, Northrop) functions like a 'mafia' or 'breakaway civilization' that hoards technology.
Evidence: Quotes from Ben Rich stating Skunk Works built 'toys' for the CIA and Air Force, with the condition that technology cannot be commercialized publicly.
UFOs/UAPs are not extraterrestrial but are classified human plasma/orb technology developed by the military.
Evidence: Reference to Lockheed Martin’s primary customers being the CIA and Air Force; dismissal of alien narratives as 'crap'.
Elon Musk is incorrect in claiming defense contractors do not have breakthroughs; they actively suppress them to maintain classified contracts.
Evidence: Ben Rich’s explanation that defense contractors switched to a business model of working directly with intelligence agencies to ensure income during non-war times, at the cost of public commercialization.
The 'breakaway civilization' exists because the incentive structure of classified contracts prevents the public release of technologies like fusion reactors.
Evidence: Ben Rich’s statement: 'If we classify something, you can't commercialize it. You can only sell it to us.'

I've been making a lot of bold statements. I haven't been getting called out on any of them. Some of them are coming true. I said the CIA has been working with Lockheed Martin. We have absolute proof of that. So when we say CIA orbed MH370, we're not messing around.
We're not even really speculating at this point. Let me read this from Ben Rich's book. Kelly Johnson, the hand-picked retired leader who first joined in 1933. By the way, Kelly Johnson was like the god of Skunk Works. Essentially, I read a lot of this book now and now I understand Lockheed Martin. I don't know why these people put all these words on paper for me to read and understand, but they're lost my game.
Essentially, the reason for the Skunk Works was they needed to have a way for the aerospace aerospace planes to be working hand-in-hand closely with the engineers building them. So that they could iterate very quickly. Meanwhile, the money people are trying to keep everything afloat. The money people are like, we need a airplane that's better than the other ones that people will buy for military, civilian, whatever. So that we don't go bankrupt. And these companies did in some cases go bankrupt.
So this was a very This is not a situation where they were flush with money in most situations. So Kelly Johnson makes this Skunk Works to be super iterative and you can see how this philosophy led to the breakaway civilization we're in now. What I love about this is we keep finding things that should only exist if this technology we've been talking about is real. And it is real. Just like this, we find out that uh Lockheed Martin Skunk Works, Kelly Johnson, his whole point of the Skunk Works was to make this super efficient iterative engineering system and what happened?
First thing happens is CIA gets his hands all over it. Here we go. By the time he retired 42 years later, Kelly Johnson was recognized as the preeminent aerospaceist of his time who created the fastest and highest flying military planes in history. Inside the Skunk Works, we were all small, intensely cohesive group consisting of about 50 veteran engineers and designers and a hundred or so expert machinists and shop workers. Our forte was building a small number of very technologically advanced airplanes for highly secretive missions. >> [music] >> I I mean, it's kind of on the nose. Kind of on the nose.
Building airplanes for secretive missions, like building orbs for secretive missions as well perchance. I would bet I'm not going to save my life. I would bet my life that the CIA is the one recording those MH370 videos and those are CIA orbs. Bet my life. Wouldn't bet exactly my life, but I would bet a lot of money that Lockheed Martin had a hand in building those orbs. A lot of money.
Which is why, by the way, I'll just handle the alien topic right now. Aliens are all over right now. Congress is going to get to the bottom of it. We got UFO disclosure happening, guys. I would keep those expectations at a minimum. We're apparently the only ones left who still think the UFOs flying around are not aliens.
Everybody Even Tim Dillon. Even Tim Dillon. It's so over, chat. Tim Dillon, the guy that said aliens is the dumbest conspiracy next to ghosts. We're the last bastion of scientific thought and rational uh rational reasoning. That can be aliens in the sky.
I'm not against it. Show me the alien. Show me the alien and then we can talk about it. Until then, your ball of plasma flying around something we call in the scientific world electromagnetism. Electromagnetism, chat. So, we've got this small group of people that are working on these secret projects that Lockheed Martin is working with the military on.
What came off our drawing boards provided key strategic and technological advantages for the United States since our enemies had no way to stop our overflights. Principal customers were the Central Intelligence Agency and the US Air Force. How are the UFO people not all over this? Hello. Knock knock. Uh Steven Greenstreet?
Rumor on the street is you investigate UFO stuff. And you don't like the alien side of it. Well, why don't maybe you should look into this. CIA and the Air Force, that's all the surveillance assets. We're looking at Air Force Gorgon Stare wide-area motion imagery. No one in the world knew what the hell that was.
And here's Lockheed Martin saying that their primary customer is the Air Force and the CIA. For years, we functioned as the CIA's unofficial toy makers. I mean, I think the UFO people, the Congress, if you want to solve the mystery, we should probably take a look inside the Skunk Works. What were they building for the CIA? Was it some plasma orbs? What kind of electromagnetic principles were they using when they were making their floaty plasma orbs?
That's going to be real disclosure, not aliens are coming here from another dimension or they're demons or whatever crap I hear that's just going to make me crash out, so we're not even going to talk about it today. Anyway, building them spy planes while developing an intimate working partnership with the agency that was unique between government and private industry. You say there's a breakaway civilization. I say I guarantee you it involves the CIA, the Air Force, and Lockheed Martin. Like guaranteed 100%. And you say, Ashton, I'm going to answer another question that everybody's wondered.
I am going to answer Elon Musk right here. Elon Musk. >> [clears throat] >> Let's let him speak in his own words. I forgot I have everybody clipped. I have everybody clipped and everyone will atone. Everyone will atone. Some people say, Ashton, you're egotistical for thinking that Joe Rogan, the biggest podcaster in the world, that he has anything to atone.
Yes, he does. Joe Rogan dismissed the MH370 videos and canceled my interview on his show. He has to atone. Whether or not you think he's going to do that, I don't care. I don't care. He will, I promise you because the videos are real.
Unless it's completely in these weapons manufacturing corporations. >> I mean, I know these weapons manufacturing companies. Like to Boeing, Lockheed, Northrop. I mean, yeah, they do some interesting things, but they do not have I There's no breakthrough that they have. So >> I'm confident they do not have a breakthrough. >> When you hear people like >> Like why don't they just compete with SpaceX and make a better rocket? In which case, uh you know, Right. They can make Why are they holding back on making um a lot of money from beating SpaceX with better rockets?
Well, Elon Musk, world's richest man, why? Why are they holding back? Why are they not out making a whole bunch of money? Well, Ben Rich just told us in his book. Turns out especially if you make airplanes for military, when there's a war going on, you get a lot of you get a lot of business, but when there's not a war going on, you don't get a lot of business. So you know what Lockheed Martin did?
They said, we have a new business model. We will work directly with the intelligence agencies. And we will provide you toys. Now, there's pros and cons to this agreement. One, you get income, you get sales during non-war times. Downside, you can't use any of that technology publicly.
If we classify something, you can't commercialize it. You can only sell it to us. Uh-oh, but that's not a free market. Yeah. This is how you develop a breakaway civilization. The main aspect of the breakaway civilization is that it has been hiding, hoarding technology.
And there must be a mechanism, an incentive structure set up in a way to allow that to happen. And the way that's happening was just explained to us by Ben Rich. There was a relationship between the CIA. Once you're in the mafia, you are never leaving the mafia chat. You're in the mafia for life. You're building stuff for them for life.
They probably would love to sell a fusion reactor and make energy free across the world. And have everything be a Lockheed Martin fusion reactor, but Mr. Government says, "No, you can't do that because you sold us some orbs." Right? So, this is the part that Elon Musk doesn't quite understand. And Elon Musk doesn't have that 50, 70-year relationship with the CIA. They actually, I was listening to the whole story of Skunk Works.
They were working with the government during the wars, like World War II. Like World War II, guys. Goes This This relationship goes very far back.
