Have you heard of the GATE Program also known as Gifted and Talented Education that was run by the CIA in the 80's and 90's on children?
I found out a few days ago that I was part of the secret GATE program for years and I didn't even know it and I'm here to share all the wild and crazy details! Maybe you were also a part of it and you haven't even realized it until now...!
Welcome back to Influenced By Kim, hosted by Hofit Kim Cohen Meyers. Today’s episode is mind-blowing—I just discovered that I was part of a secret government experiment as a kid, and my entire reality has shifted in the last 24 hours.
So, let’s talk about the GATE Program, also known as the Gifted and Talented Education Program—except, what if I told you it wasn’t just about gifted kids? This was a declassified CIA program from the ’80s and ’90s that secretly tested children for psychic abilities, memory recall, and problem-solving skills. And guess what? I was one of those kids—and I had no idea until yesterday.
In this episode, I’m diving deep into:
🔹 How I stumbled upon this information and pieced together my lost childhood memories
🔹 The weird tests and experiments I went through as a kid, thinking I was just "bad at school"
🔹 Why so many kids from the program ended up with ADHD, memory gaps, and authority issues
🔹 How this all connects to Stranger Things, MKUltra, and other government projects
🔹 My theory on why they tested us—and whether they tried to suppress our abilities
This is one of the craziest discoveries of my life, and I need to know—were any of YOU part of this? If this episode triggers a memory, DM me on Instagram or answer the poll on Spotify! Let’s uncover the truth together.
