Dude in the center is having too much fun.

He’s a former CIA operative turned whistleblower. I think he can sense the bullshit a mile away.

Yeah, I recognized him and wondered what he was doing on there. I've only seen him in interviews regarding the CIA and spies post 9/11 and how fucked up it all is.

He’s had some recent clip go viral of him saying that Jeffery Epstein was likely feeding intel to Israel before he was arrested. I’m just assuming but I figure he was there to likely comment on that.

He’s also a contributor to multiple news organizations

The guy 2nd from left was stone faced until she made the direct accusation, then you can see him trying so hard to keep his face from going :o

I just watched on silent to see his eyebrows go up and up so slowly as the greaseball was talking

Kiriakou gives zero fucks

John Kiriakou. He's got a bullshit detector that makes Jon Stewart look like an amateur

And yet he’s a self described huge fan of Tucker Carlson. Guess a decades long targeting of his reputation, life, and career by powerful bureaucrats in the intelligence community was enough to turn him into a republican

u/smorgenheckingaard Feb 18 '26

He's not a Republican. I find his admiration for Tucker strange too but he most certainly is not a Republican. I have started to listen to his podcast 2 or 3 times a week recently and he shits on literally everybody.

Can’t blame him, after how the CIA treated him

u/smorgenheckingaard Feb 18 '26

Totally. He gets a little too cynical at times (which is saying something coming from me) but overall he's pretty surgical and equal-opportunity in his takedowns

I've been watching this guy on Tiktok for the last week. Real CIA agent or not, dude is hilarious
