Scott Wolter and Richard Hoagland Accuse CIA, Aliens of Monolith Meme Conspiracy

12/14/2020

77 Comments

 
On December 12, former America Unearthed host Scott F. Wolter appeared on Mars conspiracy theorist Richard Hoagland’s amateurish podcast The Other Side of Midnight. It was weird. Much of it was the same repetitive blather about Wolter’s greatest hits, particularly the Kensington Rune Stone, but listening to him try to discuss his ideas with a man who thinks the universe is filled with ancient alien ruins makes it an unusual exercise in mutual delusion.
Wolter takes time to discuss the recent appearance of pillar-like metal monoliths in remote locations. Wolter said that the CIA is behind the appearance of the monoliths to try to distract Americans from Donald Trump and COVID-19. “I’m wondering if maybe these monoliths are a way of getting people’s attention and getting them to step back” from news events. “Maybe it’s a group in our own government or other governments” trying to make “the collective consciousness” change. “I think it’s brilliant, quite frankly,” Wolter said. The monolith that started the trend had been installed in a remote part of Utah around 2016, according to Google Earth data, and apparently the CIA was playing a very long Deep State game against Trump.
 
Hoagland claims that the Utah monolith (which he calls a “hyperdimensional tetrahedron” and an “energy signal”) is located near three-dimension sculptures of deep antiquity that are too “sophisticated” to be the work of Native Americans, and therefore, the monolith is an alien artifact pointing toward secret codes explaining how space aliens genetically engineered humanity. There’s also some weird numerology that Hoagland says proves that the monolith relates to the movie National Treasure and is a key to a lost library of ancient alien wisdom. He claims that examining the monolith will play an “important” role in “disclosure.” “We’ve got the keys to the kingdom!” Hoagland exclaims.
 
“That was pretty good!” Wolter replies.
 
At one point, Hoagland discusses how the monoliths supposedly represent the “number of the Beast,” spirituality, and a vast conspiracy to point toward “what the hell” humanity really is, and whether space aliens are actually humans who live on other planets—an old Contactee claim from the 1950s, born of the Shaver Mystery before that, and Theosophy before that. Wolter and Hoagland end up engaged in a confusing tete-a-tete about the question of whether aliens are real and whether a secret cult is using “memes” to transform humanity. Wolter takes a Gaia-theory approach and speaks messianically about the message of the aliens or Templars or whatever being the need to care for the living Earth. It’s a real meeting of the minds. I recalled an old line about how the White House never played host to as much genius as when Thomas Jefferson dined alone. This is kind of the opposite of that.
 
This goes on for hours, discussing secret technological secrets in sacred texts, alien help with prehistoric monumental alignments, forbidden alien ruins on Mars, etc. For a while, they talk about the Newport Tower. Wolter tells his usual—and very long—story about meeting a ghost or interdimensional space alien spirit (an “attractive” woman) at the Tower in 2007, and Hoagland declares that she is really an alien from Sirius (“one of the main drivers of contemporary human evolution” he says) because she was in the presence of a dog, as in the Dog Star. Apparently, space ghosts are like Greek gods and always travel with their symbols. At least if it were Persephone, she’d have brought pomegranates to share. In this telling, the woman claimed to work in public relations, took a picture of Wolter with his camera, and walked away when he wasn’t looking. Obviously alien space ghost behavior. (He claims it happened so fast she must have dematerialized, but more likely is that he wasn’t paying attention to how long he looked away and thought he had looked away for less time than he really did.)
 
Wolter tells last month’s story about the U.S. government allegedly contacting him to serve as an agent of disclosure. He says that he does what he does to educate the public about the real tenets on which America was founded and to “take a step back” and realize that there are higher powers—alien and divine—that rule over and guide us. It’s the typical quasi-spiritual claptrap popular among the Contactees in the 1950s, but is interesting that now it is wrapped up in a worship of the federal government as the holy, holy, holy arbiter of sacred truth that we didn’t see back in the 1950s. In those days, the government was the enemy, not an object of lust. “There is no more important work I can ever do,” Wolter says, than to propagandize for space aliens on behalf of the government, and he launches in a harangue about the failures of politics and corporations and how humanity must “rise up” to right the wrongs on our planet. It’s disturbing how aliens, apocalypse, and salvation narratives fold into one another in a parody of an evangelical tent revival. “None of this is coincidence,” Wolter says of the pandemic and Disclosure and ancient history, and he darkly implies that there is “no time to waste” as some unknowable revelation is about to explode.
 
They talk about alternative paradigms and fake news. “No wonder we can’t agree on reality,” Hoagland said. Um, Richard, maybe you bear some of the blame for promoting fake science and fake history? Just a thought. Wolter throws in some jabs against the Smithsonian—a “pack of liars,” he says—apparently unaware of the disconcerting contradiction between his “trust” in the government to anoint him an agent of Disclosure and his assertion that the same government (or its wholly owned subsidiaries) are actively suppressing “truth” as part of an evil plot.

Wow, did you listen to the whole interview ?
My condolences and thanks for going where no one should be expected to go !

If you hear dogs barking during the night of the winter solstice on December 21 when for the first time in 800 years Jupiter and Saturn will be in conjunction and will appear as one, will that be a harbinger of an interdimensional Templar alien invasion from Sirius using bases time travelers from the future made when they built the moon ?

No, sir. I've been waiting on this event for years. The last time Jupiter and Saturn came together like this was 1623. That's 397 years not "800". That's not fact-checking either. Just Math.

Anthony is right in the sense that "six degrees" is common astronomical terminology for "a tenth of one degree" and in the sense that the last conjunction of Jupiter and Saturn was in 1623 which is astronomical shorthand for the year 2000; Jim is right in that the conjunction of 1226 was more easily observed by a greater number of people because of not being right next to the sun.

Sorry Kent, longitude is not a measurement of direction. Lol.

Nor are place names such as East L.A. (which is actually in the western US) or the Eastern or Western hemispheres. Being in the Eastern Hemisphere (place name not a direction) does not automatically make a position in that hemisphere east of everything in the Western Hemisphere.
That is asinine !
A perfect example is Pochnoi Point, Semisopochnoi Island, Alaska 51°57′42″N 179°46′23″E, athough being slightly inside the Eastern Hemisphere it is in fact only approx. 670 miles westerly of the Alaska mainland, which is in the western Hemisphere.
You see Kent, being in the Eastern hemisphere (place name, not a direction) does not make it east of North America.
Russia for example is west of Alaska, this is indisputable.

Kent:,,, "Alaska, still the easternmost U.S. State."

Anthony G.
12/31/2020 05:24:42 am

[What is a Conjunction?
Simply put, a conjunction is when two objects line up in the sky. But that alignment is never perfect, as the orbits for planets like Jupiter and Saturn are tilted slightly relative to one another, so what we really want to say is that a conjunction occurs when planets come close together and then move apart. But how close together should count for a conjunction? We need a quantitative definition.
Because the orbits of the planets all lie nearly in one plane, a natural thing to do is to measure the angle (known as longitude) to the position of the planet measured in the plane of the Earth's orbit counterclockwise from some reference direction. In the diagrams below, that reference direction is to the right, and is where the Sun appears when viewed from the Earth on the first day of spring. With this choice, the rightmost part of the orbit has longitude zero degrees, the top is 90 degrees, leftmost is 180 degrees, and bottom is 270 degrees. If Jupiter and Saturn have the same longitude as viewed from the Earth, we will call that a conjunction. Notice by this definition the planets may approach one another, but until the longitudes overlap we don't count it as a conjunction.]

Here is another little secret about Monuments: the only way the damn thing ever got written was that Hoagland went to prison for one of his inexplicable and weird scams (ostensibly something about a stolen rental car and New York Planetarium credit card)—whether it really happend or not as reported, whether it was really a scam or not, and whether he was really guilty or sentenced fairly or not (the answer to the latter is definitely “not,” as he had an attorney involved in his own weird paranoid cosmic conspiracy theories, including Hoagland). In the end he was incarcerated over a New York State warrant that he chose to flee (to the Golden State) rather than defend in situ; he was apprehended in Berkeley when stopped for having a cardboard rear license plate; refused to plea-bargain; and so got housed in L.A. County jail for over a year. Admittedly my version of the story is cobbled out of hearsay from a variety of semi-reliable sources, but it roughly tracks some event that actually happened. He was in jail; that’s where I addressed my mail to him regarding the book; and he did write much of the book there.

Wolter needs help. The claimed incident where he saw a woman with a cellphone never happened. He just saw some lady taking a selfie and assumed it was his picture she was taking. Or go even deeper down the rabbit hole of Goddess ideas, he made it up, and no such woman ever appeared. He needs to seek mental help before he starts imagining Templar knights tell him to do unthinkable things. He needs to see a professional psychologist.

Nonsensical Knowledge Podcast Episode #16 w/ Scott Wolter

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b9OX2teZV7A

Same old same old, nothing new.

I did take note that Wolter claims that no one has ever been able to dispute that Cistercian monks had to have written the Kensington runestone because at the time only clergy knew how to read and write. Of course this nonsense and debunked by Wolter himself with his equally bogus claims of a young Prince Henry Sinclair keeping a journal.

Wolter keeps adding more new crap to his nonsensical story that is is now becoming self debunking and contradicts itself.

Another faux pas would be when he claims to have discovered the grail code in the KRS.
At the 44:25 mark The host asks him,,, "So now you discovered a grail code hidden in the Kensington runestone ?",,,
Wolter: "Ya, I published that in my first book."
Host:,, "Wow congradulations."

Wolter always likes to take credit for others works as most of his books are often just him regurgitating other author's works, but wow taking credit for his co-authors "find",,, easily debunked by a perusal of Wolter"s blog.

http://scottwolteranswers.blogspot.com/2017/07/richard-nielsens-grail-code-is-alive.html

"Richard Nielsen's Grail Code is Alive and Well "

Although now that Richard Nielsen is no longer with us Wolter is free to claim the glory all for himself. :

"It has been over a year now since Dick passed away and Pat's questions prompted me to recall my days working with Nielsen and our joint discovery of what Dick and I decided to call, "The Grail Code."

Not much different than Wolter claiming ownership of Jim Egan's discovery of the light hitting the egg shaped stone in the Newport tower on the solstice with his ghost/alien story.

As I said, nothing new, mainly discussing the KRS.
I give the interview a solid 91/2 thumbs down, complete waste of time.

Visit from DoD Time Traveler, "Aliens Are Real, They're Here & Look Just Like Us, Scott Wolter

Wow ! Wolter sounds the craziest I have ever heard him, he is completely coocoo bananas.
I only listened to the first 1/2 hour , but, wow he is gonzo, I almost feel bad for having mocked someone with his obvious mental problems.

Wolter has a wierd camera angle and lighting in the vid interview which has a bizarre crazed old lunatic in a cabin uni-bomber vibe to it which Wolter lives up to. It doesn't help that the young pseudo doing the interviewing appears to hero worship Wolter and is all in with anything insane Wolter spouts in his crazy ravings and rantings.

At one point wolter says the Aliens look just like us and that the popular depictions we have seen are merely alien made clones or something like that, I guess, says said clones are so impressive because they interact so intelligently and well with humans that the actual aliens who made them (who look just like us, not like aliens) must be super impressive.

Woo Woo Wolter says his government contact showed up at his place and stayed with Wolter for 3 days cheek to cheek, I guess to vet each other, and they are now fast friends and completely trust one another,
Wolter claims that he was chosen by the govt. because of his affiliation with the Freemasons and, in a part that sounds somehow less insane and more like normal Wolter, starts laying the groundwork for his inevitable connections between the Freemason/Templars and the aliens.

These interviews Wolter keeps seeking are just getting more and more bizarre and actually more disturbing, I truly worry for his sanity.

That's all I could take, I had to extract myself from the maw of madness that is Scott Wolter.

Looks Like He who shall not be named has pulled some of his usual shenanigans.

Call me crazy but, does it not look like he interviewed and authored his own interview ?????

https://www.digitalconnectmag.com/the-man-who-will-save-america/

All articles on the website are credited to "Shawn".
Shawn is quite the prolific author.
But, using various cutouts, the articles on the site appear to be "pay for play".

Oops, my mistake, the author was not "Shawn" but a realtor named Robert Mani.

Mani has a puffed up bio with no mention of any post secondary education at all.
One has to wonder why a realtor would feel the urge to interview the Putz and then pay to have his suck up interview published.

Interestingly enough he seems to be involved in the same sort of schemes as he who shall not be named.

http://luxeglobal.com/about/robert-mani/

" He is presently spearheading a team of seasoned investment professionals focusing on assisting entrepreneurs with seed financing, operations consulting and capital formation."

(The Putz)

" Our formula is simple: 1. We assemble seed investment syndication groups (SISG). 2. The SISG is its own company investing in not one start-up but two at the same,,,,,,,,,"

And yet another pay to play for the Putz.

Well, isn't this fun and refreshing !

https://www.nighttimepodcast.com/episodes/open-lines-feb-7-2021

Finally a talk show that's not all pseudo.
At about the 44 min. mark they discuss Dominion voting machine's 2+ billion dollar lawsuit and how He who shall not be named is in fact named in the lawsuit and there is an order in place not to remove his social media posts etc.

I checked up on him maybe a week or so ago and thought he may be on the social media lam as his Facebook page showed nothing but a statement saying his posts had been all designated private or something similar.

Also at the same time his twitter feed was unavailable and had a statement saying to the effect that he had gone dark and would be back at the beginning of March.(?)
I see they are both up and running normally now but one wonders if he has sanitized his posts.

The folks on the show begin discussing He who shall not be named at about the 38 min mark where they comment on his Oak Island sword shenanigans and go through a host of his crap including his penchant for litigation and then on to his voter fraud crapola. They even mention Andy's "Swordgate" series of blogs.

I'm loving it.

Wolters partner from Pirate Treasure of the Knights Templar, Barry Clifford is at it again, real ? ,,,,, or more shenanigans ?

https://www.cnn.com/2021/02/12/us/pirate-shipwreck-skeletons-found-trnd/index.html

"The skeletons are being examined
The recovered concretions -- compacted masses of matter -- are under examination by Barry Clifford, an underwater explorer, and his team of archaeologists, according to the release, obtained by CNN affiliate WBZ and shared with CNN."

I remember back in the day when Hoagland was the #1 star on the crazy theory circuit. He was the "expert" in those circles. It seems Wolter has taken that title, and Hoagland's fading star can retire in peace.
