On this episode of podcast, host Amanda Head is joined by Mike Benz — former Deputy Assistant Secretary for International Communications and Information Technology at the State Department and speechwriter to President Donald Trump in his first term. Together, they break down the newly declassified JFK assassination files and their far-reaching implications.

Benz unpacks the CIA’s historical influence over the State Department, the creation of USAID as a cover for covert operations, and the agency’s infiltration of diplomatic posts, NGOs, and even prostitution rings for intelligence gathering. As Executive Director of the Foundation for Freedom Online, he also explores what these revelations mean for U.S. foreign policy today — and what future declassifications might reveal about the JFK assassination and other classified operations covertly accomplished by our federal government.
