24:47Now PlayingDid the CIA change after the torture scandals-or did the secrets just get better hidden?
Former CIA officer and whistleblower John Kiriakou exposed the agency’s use of waterboarding in the early 2000s and became the only person imprisoned in connection with the program.
Now, years later, Marc Lamont Hill asks Kiriakou what his case reveals about CIA secrecy, covert operations, foreign intervention, and accountability inside the United States.
This interview originally premiered on Al Jazeera's UpFront on Aug 2, 2026 .
