'The CIA's secret network aimed at infiltrating the Mormons: the story no one is talking about." Julian Dorey ft Tyler Oliveira Summary : Most people are unaware of the extent of the ties between Mormon culture and U.S. intelligence agencies. From the early days of the Cold War to the CIA of today, Mormon missionaries—multilingual, disciplined, with clean criminal records, and experienced abroad—have quietly become some of the agency’s most valuable recruits. But the roots of this connection run even deeper. Long before the CIA was created, the founding narrative of Mormonism revolved around golden plates, angelic messengers, and a prophetic mission—a narrative that shaped a culture of duty, secrecy, and international action. In this excerpt: Why the CIA has recruited Mormon missionaries for decades The character traits that made them ideal intelligence agents How the structure of missions mirrors intelligence gathering The little-known story of Joseph Smith and the plates How beliefs, culture, and national security became intertwined Why this story has been forgotten A little-known chapter of American history that had an impact far beyond religion. https://youtu.be/385zq61eZlw?si=nTQ_97wxLDDJgMzz
