In this groundbreaking book, Kevin Shipp, a veteran CIA agent who worked with all four Directorates of the agency, including protecting the head of the CIA, provides his perspective on how the agency has strayed so far from its original mission to provide accurate intelligence to the American president.
You will learn about the founding of the Agency, how the intelligence agencies have manipulated journalists through Project Mockingbird, as well as their new efforts with the Center for Global Engagement, and Big Tech interference. Shipp will also give you his up close and personal assessment of how the directors of the agency have contributed to our safety or undermined it. Shipp and Heckenlively detail how the CIA has blocked whistleblowers and the reforms they champion, while also controlling our country through secret alliances with large corporations, Wall Street, Big Media, the drug trade, and blackmail of our political leaders.
Shipp provides his own history with the Agency, both the good and bad, including the Agencys attempt to ruin his career and life when he turned whistleblower. The actions of brave patriots exposing this shadow government and their dark arts of persuasion are having a devastating effect as they are being covered daily in alternative media and independent podcasts. Perhaps most striking of all, Shipp lays out his plan for a dramatic overhaul of the Agency, likely to win wide approval from other sectors of the intelligence community, restoring the freedom of our country, while also keeping us safe from our adversaries.
Kevin Shipp was a tier one top performer at the CIA. He saw firsthand the corruption in the Agency and heroically went public, revealing CIA criminal activity.

This must-read book is a shocking expos of the CIA and its historic and ongoing crimes. When one thinks of the dirty tricks the CIA has perpetrated since its inception, as well as their current efforts, one is left with a deeply disturbing portrait of a rogue agency. The book paints a picture of the CIA that goes far beyond the worst you might imagine, but also gives clear guidance on how we can reign in the Agency and restore American freedom."

Kevin Shipp, former CIA officer and antiterrorism expert, held several high-level positions in the CIA. He was assigned as a protective agent for the director of Central Intelligence, a counterespionage investigator searching for moles inside the CIA, a Counter Terrorism Center operations officer, and internal security investigator, Chief of Training for the CIA federal police force, supervisor of high-risk asset protective operations and polygraph examiner. Mr. Shipp functioned as program manager for the Department of State, Diplomatic Security, Anti-Terrorism Assistance global police training program. He is the recipient of two CIA Meritorious Unit Citations, three Exceptional Performance Awards, and a Medallion for overseas operations. He is the author of From the Company of Shadows: CIA Operations and the War on Terrorism. Mr. Shipp has been a regular guest on The American Heroes Channel as an intelligence and terrorism expert and has been the subject of numerous radio interviews and newspaper articles. A brush with a terminal illness when he was a young man and a miraculous recovery made him fearless of death and danger. This served him well in his CIA career and ultimately in publicly standing up to CIA corruption.
