The MK Ultra Hearings Are Already a Cover-Up, CIA Whistleblower Explains
"I faxed my evidence to every member of the House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence and the Senate Select Committee on Intelligence and never heard a thing back from any of it. I had an internal source tell me that I was placed on a GOP no contact list because I was jeopardizing the CI's reputation."
Kevin Shipp reveals he was blacklisted by Republicans after providing evidence of CIA abuses to congressional intelligence committees, receiving no response despite faxing documentation to every member. He states an internal source confirmed he was placed on a no-contact list for threatening the agency's reputation. This occurs while Congress holds public hearings claiming to investigate CIA programs, suggesting oversight committees actively avoid credible whistleblower testimony.

About this episode

Former CIA officer and whistleblower Kevin Shipp tells hosts Clayton and Natali Morris that recent congressional hearings on MK Ultra led by Representative Anna Paulina Luna are political theater designed to create the false appearance of government accountability. Shipp asserts that all MK Ultra files were immediately destroyed by CIA Director Richard Helms during the Church Committee investigations in the 1970s, making current investigations impossible. The only surviving evidence consists of seven boxes of receipts accidentally discovered decades ago. More significantly, Shipp claims the CIA's behavioral science programs never actually ended, citing former high-level CIA official Victor Marchetti who stated MK Ultra's termination was merely a cover story. Shipp says he has personally spoken with recent victims of ongoing mind control programs and believes the agency now uses directed energy weapons against whistleblowers and perceived enemies. He reveals he was placed on a Republican Party no-contact list after providing evidence to congressional intelligence committees, which never responded to his documentation. Shipp argues that congressional oversight is a sham, with intelligence committees meeting less than any other committee and members controlled through limited security clearances, CIA secrecy agreements threatening prison time for leaks, and potential blackmail. He describes the CIA as operating through special access programs so classified that even agency directors are unaware of their existence. The interview includes discussion of CIA influence over Hollywood productions including Homeland and Zero Dark Thirty, with filmmakers receiving classified briefings and training. Shipp characterizes his former colleagues as morally compromised individuals willing to betray personal relationships for intelligence gathering.
