Former CIA operations officer Rick de la Torre joins Rebecca Weber on the Better For America podcast for a deep dive into intelligence, national security, and the growing power of the deep state. He reveals how leadership failures have transformed agencies like the CIA, how foreign aid is being manipulated, and why artificial intelligence and quantum computing are the next battlegrounds for global power.
