16:49Now PlayingJohn Kiriakou reveals what most people never see about surveillance, intelligence power, and the hidden forces shaping global politics.
Drawing on his experience as a former CIA counterterrorism officer and whistleblower, John explains how easily governments can track communications, how intelligence agencies operate without accountability, and why exposing the truth about torture and surveillance cost him his freedom.
He breaks down why China poses a long-term strategic threat, how the United States is spending itself toward collapse, and why modern warfare is no longer about bombs but influence, patience, and control. This conversation also explores ethics, power, and the dangerous consequences of abandoning the rule of law.
Discover:
• How surveillance really works behind the scenes
• Why intelligence agencies operate above accountability
• The long term threat China poses to the West
• How military spending is pushing the US toward collapse
• Why ethics disappear when power is at stake
• What happens when governments stop obeying their own laws
