Once upon a time, America’s intelligence agencies were respected. Well, at least, that’s the fairy tale we’ve been told. But what we’ve actually witnessed over the last few decades is the slow, calculated transformation of the US intelligence community into a full-blown domestic psyop machine.

Forget spies fighting the bad guys overseas; these guys are now way too busy gaslighting you at home.

The Russia Hoax wasn’t just a smear campaign; it was a coordinated intelligence operation to destroy a sitting president. His only real crime was beating Hillary Clinton, the regime’s chosen one. Donald Trump didn’t come from their world. He didn’t play their games. And that kind of independent threat to power had to be crushed at all costs.

In the end, it didn’t work; Trump was still standing, but the damage was done. That elaborate hoax left deep scars and lasting shame on the country.

And let’s not forget January 6. That wasn’t just a protest that got a little out of hand; it was a federally concocted honey pot, set up to bait and destroy not just Trump, but everyone who dared stand with him. They wanted to wipe out President Trump and the entire MAGA movement in one fell swoop. It was the same blueprint, same players, same goal: obliterate the outsider and anyone who refuses to bend the knee to the progressive-globalist agenda.

This is a US intelligence community that’s decided it knows what’s best for you, and it’ll use everything from fake news to federal raids to make sure you obey. And the scariest part is that most people still have no idea how deep the rot goes.

But if you really want to understand when the tide started to turn, we’ve got to go back, not to Obama or Bush, but to Ronald Reagan…

Yes, the Reagan era brought a lot of wins, but also a lot of controversy. And one particular move unintentionally opened the floodgates for the mess we’re drowning in today. That move was the “restructuring” of the intelligence community… and the quiet creation of something called Internews.

Ever heard of it? You should have, because Internews was CIA in everything but name. And the backstory behind how it all started helps piece together even more of this tangled, corrupt puzzle.

Mike Benz breaks it down in this must-watch clip.

Mario Nawfal:

DEEP DIVE | MIKE BENZ ON INTERNEWS: “IT’S WAS CIA IN ALL BUT NAME”

Benz describes Internews as part of Reagan’s intelligence overhaul that was later used to undermine democracies.

“Internews was created around the exact time as the National Endowment for Democracy and the U.S. Institute of Peace.

This was the great Reagan restructuring of the intelligence community.

All this stuff used to be CIA before that.

The problem is Internews later fell under atrocious leadership that weaponized its media function to go after democracies.”

This is the moment the intelligence playbook went from Cold War tactics to “democracy management.” And it’s been downhill ever since.

There’s a lot to unpack here, but don’t miss this next clip.

In this latest Deep Dive episode, Mike Benz lays it all out: the censorship-industrial complex isn’t just about shutting people up. It’s a well-funded, globally coordinated machine designed to control every narrative, from elections to foreign uprisings. We’re talking $500 million in media manipulation, laundering US tax dollars through shady NGOs, and pushing regime change while gaslighting the public with talk of “democracy.”

Mike artfully connects the dots. Internews, USAID, Soros pipelines, Bellingcat, the whole cast and crew of shady bad guys… but one thing to remember is this entire story about our Intelligence Agencies isn’t about anything but a concocted story and who controls it.

Watch the full interview below:

Mario Nawfal:
