Bush official claims US built secret $21T underground ‘city’ for rich and powerful to live if ‘near-extinction event’ happens

The federal government has secretly spent trillions building an elaborate network of subterranean “cities” where the rich and powerful can shelter during a “near-extinction event,” a former Bush White House official sensationally claimed.

About 170 such bunkers have been built across the country since 1998 – including some resting beneath the oceans off the US coast, 74-year-old Catherine Austin Fitts told Tucker Carlson ၏ during a recent appearance on his podcast.

“It’s preparation for catastrophe,” Fitts said, according to Realtor.com.

Fitts, who served as assistant secretary of Housing and Urban Development under President George H. W. Bush from 1989 to 1990, claimed $21 trillion in taxpayer dollars were funneled into the project between 1998 and 2015.

She provided no evidence for her claims, but said a 2017 report from Michigan State University economist Mark Skidmore indicated that much “unauthorized spending” had been uncovered across the Departments of Defense and Housing and Urban Development during that time.

Comparing her research against the missing cash, Fitts said she was able to make a “guess” about how many facilities there really are.

She claimed the 170 only applied to bases on US soil and around its coastline – alleging that more exist across the world.

And the bases are connected by an elaborate transportation system, she added, while claiming they are powered by a secret energy system known only to the military.

Those alleged bases are used not just as doomsday bunkers for the elites, Fitts claimed, but also as places for the government to operate “secret” operations like a “secret space program.”

During the Cold War, the Cheyenne Mountain Complex was built inside a Colorado mountain to serve as a hardened base of operations for various military operations. It is currently used by the US Space Force.
