Valerie Solanas Assassination Attempt and the SCUM Manifesto

Sean Peter describes how his research into feminism led him to Valerie Solanas, the woman who attempted to assassinate Andy Warhol in 1968. Solanas was the founder of the Society for the Cutting Up of Men (SCUM) and a radical feminist who viewed men as obsolete. The official narrative suggests she shot Warhol because his team lost a play she had written titled "Up Your Ass," but the investigation suggests deeper motivations.

MKUltra Connections and Valerie Solanas's Military Intelligence Handler

The discussion explores the possibility that Valerie Solanas was a mind-controlled assassin managed by a handler with military intelligence ties. This handler, referred to as "Jeff," reportedly bailed Solanas out of jail for $10,000 and lived near the Presidio Army Base, a known MKUltra training ground in San Francisco. Solanas herself made claims about being controlled and having tracking devices implanted, suggesting a "Manchurian Candidate" scenario.
