Psychic
 Psychic  (Parapsychology)   | |
|---|---|
| A psychic is a person that is sensitive to the parapsychological forces of the nonphysical realm.[1] |
A psychic is a person who says to have extrasensory perception (ESP) to identify information hidden from the normal senses, particularly involving telepathy or clairvoyance, or who performs acts that are apparently inexplicable by natural laws.
Many people believe in psychic abilities, the scientific consensus, however, is that there is no proof of the existence of such powers.
Psychics are at times employed in the US by the police to help with criminal cases.[2][3][4]

Origin
The word "psychic" is derived from the Greek word psychikos ("of the mind" or "mental"), and refers in part to the human mind or psyche (ex. "psychic turmoil"). The Greek word also means "soul".[5]
Official Narrative
In 1988 the U.S. National Academy of Sciences gave a report on the subject and concluded there is "no scientific justification from research conducted over a period of 130 years for the existence of para-psychological phenomena".[6]
CIA Spirituals/MK Ultra Research?
Uri Geller
illusionist Uri Geller has claimed the CIA employed him to investigate the assassination of US President John F. Kennedy. Geller said he was brought into the investigation by the CIA in an attempt to find out if Lee Harvey Oswald had any contact with the KGB or the Mafia - and even met first lady Jackie Kennedy to brief her on his findings, Jackie Kennedy staying a life-long friend according to Geller. Geller hinted he "will never be able to reveal what he discovered because it is quite shocking."[7]

Former US President Jimmy Carter had a tendency later during his life to reveal some of the weirdest stories about the 3-letter agencies and the personal relations between high ranking officials, even remarking the following as example involving a psychic;
“I became more aware of what our intelligence services were doing. There was only one instance that I'll talk about now. We had a plane go down in the Central African Republic—a twinengine plane, small plane. And we couldn't find it. And so we oriented satellites that were going around the earth every ninety minutes to fly over that spot where we thought it might be and take photographs. We couldn't find it. So the director of the CIA came and told me that he had contacted a woman in California that claimed to have supernatural capabilities. And she went in a trance, and she wrote down latitudes and longitudes, and we sent our satellite over that latitude and longitude, and there was the plane.”
Jimmy Carter, GQ (2005) [8]
In popular culture
Psychics often feature in the movies and series, like the X-Files.[9]
