Show Notes
In this episode of Reality Check, Ross Coulthart sits down with Former CIA Operative John Kiriakou. He served as a counter-terrorism officer and was the first U.S. official to confirm CIA torture of detainees. He was punished for being a whistleblower, serving nearly two years in a federal prison. Since his release, he has become a leading advocate for transparency, civil liberties, and whistleblower protections. Together, they discuss U.S. President Trump's decision to capture ousted Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro, will U.S. troops attack Iran, and the age-old question: why won't the U.S. government admit to a UAP Retrieval Operation?
