John Kiriakou Unmasks CIA Lies, Torture, Assassinations, and the Truth About the Deep State

The CIA was created in 1947 to recruit spies and gather intelligence, but what it became is far darker. In this interview, former CIA officer John Kiriakou pulls back the curtain on how the agency quickly shifted from analysis to covert operations, coups, torture, and even assassinations. He explains how intelligence has been withheld from presidents, how corporations like United Fruit shaped foreign policy through the Dulles brothers, and how Iran, Guatemala, and countless nations were destabilized at the expense of millions of lives. Kiriakou also exposes the truth about MKUltra, Guantanamo, extraordinary renditions, and the deep state’s ability to outwait and undermine elected leaders. This is a rare insider account from someone who paid the price for telling the truth, and it reveals why the deep state remains one of the greatest threats to liberty, morality, and the survival of the republic.
