Mortal Government Knowledge of Magic

(1/15) > >>

Shift8:
This is meant to be both a question, and hopefully a speculative conversation etc. So feel free to pontificate :)

So basically I am curious of how much the mortal governments, such as the US gov, know about the existence of the supernatural. How much evidence do we have from the books and various WOJ? Im asking because its been awhile since ive read all the books in detail and I am sure I missed something anyhow.

Wasnt there some mention somewhere that the WC and the highest levels of mortal gov, like POTUS, have some kind of understanding?

forumghost:
WoJ is that the Library of Congress is a secret cabal dedicated to keeping the Supernatural Hidden (these are the guys who vanished the Werewolf tape from Fool Moon)

They're apparently Super Badasses that think anything Supernatural is capital E Evil (iirc they're partly behind Murphy's Career tanking just for being friends with a Wizard)

Shift8:
Are they the only savvy govt group we know of?

There's no doubt in my mind that there are a lot of groups within the mortal governments that have various knowledge and 'arrangements' with this or that supernatural faction.  We've already seen, for ex, that Lara can manipulate the U.S. Navy to the point of using its resources for her own purposes, and Jim has said that the White Council played a role in ending the Cold War.

Shift8:
I wonder if the mortal government will get involved in the BAT.
