About this listen

The CIA was officially created to protect American democracy, but its true purpose was shaping global events through covert operations and political manipulation. From overthrowing elected leaders to botched assassinations involving exploding cigars, the agency’s history is filled with deception, brutality, and unchecked power. This episode dives into the CIA’s greatest hits, from Operation Ajax to the blood-soaked horrors of Operation Condor. With a legacy built on coups, cover-ups, and cold-blooded assassinations, the agency has operated as America’s most dangerous weapon since day one.
