What happens when democracy goes underground? In this episode of The Broken Truth Podcast, host Garrett Greene uncovers the hidden world of Mount Weather — FEMA’s top-secret continuity-of-government facility buried beneath the Blue Ridge Mountains. Built in the 1950s to survive nuclear war, it has since evolved into a command network for martial-law authority and digital crisis governance. From Cold War paranoia to 9/11, Mount Weather remains the invisible capital of America’s permanent state of emergency.
Mount Weather began as a Cold-War bunker — a refuge for leadership if Washington fell. Over time, it became the centerpiece of FEMA’s Continuity of Government plan, granting unelected officials and defense contractors unprecedented authority during “national emergencies.”
The episode follows this transformation across seven decades: from Eisenhower’s doomsday blueprints and Reagan’s martial-law exercises to 9/11’s underground activation and the post-pandemic digital-continuity era.
Because when power goes underground, freedom isn’t always invited to follow.
