Ex-HUD Official Alleges $21 Trillion Secretly Spent on Underground Bunkers

  • Catherine Austin Fitts, a former US housing official, claimed on Tucker Carlson's podcast in May 2025 that the government secretly built a $21 trillion underground city for elites to survive a near-extinction event.
  • Her claim followed a 2017 report by economist Mark Skidmore, which identified unauthorized spending totaling $21 trillion in the Defense and Housing departments from 1998 to 2015.
  • Fitts said this spending funded about 170 secret bases across the US and its coastline, linked by a hidden transportation system and possibly including underwater facilities.
  • Known government bunkers like Mount Weather, Cheyenne Mountain, and Raven Rock serve as command centers, but no documented evidence supports the scale of Fitts’ alleged network.
  • If accurate, the claim implies massive undisclosed federal expenditures and secret doomsday infrastructure for powerful individuals, although Fitts provided no direct evidence.
