1178 CIA Kill List: Is a Journalist’s Exile the Price of Exposing a Pandemic Plot?

from Richard Syrett's Strange Planet · host Richard Syrett & Glassbox Media

1178 CIA Kill List: Is a Journalist’s Exile the Price of Exposing a Pandemic Plot? Buckle up for a mind-bending descent into the abyss of government overreach and covert vengeance. In this explosive episode, investigative journalist Janet Phelan unveils a jaw-dropping tale of transnational repression that sounds ripped from a dystopian thriller—except she claims it’s her reality. Filing an injunction against the CIA in June 2024, Phelan alleges a relentless campaign of chemical assaults, medical sabotage, and judicial stonewalling by U.S. authorities, all tied to her decades-long probe into judicial corruption and a chilling theory: a hidden pandemic delivery system poised to strike. From the mysterious death of her mother at the hands of an undercover fed to her exile in Mexico, her story is a volatile cocktail of courage, conspiracy, and controversy. Is she a fearless truthteller hunted by the deep state, or a lightning rod for skepticism? One thing’s certain—this episode will leave you questioning where the line between paranoia and persecution truly lies. GUEST: Janet Phelan is an intrepid investigative journalist and author whose relentless pursuit of truth has thrust her into the eye of a storm. With a pedigree from UC Berkeley’s East Asian Studies program and the University of Missouri’s Graduate School of Journalism, her bylines have graced the Los Angeles Times, the San Bernardino County Sentinel, and beyond. Since 2004, she’s carved a niche in independent media, exposing judicial corruption, elder abuse, and shadowy government ops. Her books, including EXILE and At the Breaking Point of History, fuse personal saga with intelligence exposés, predicting pandemics and global conflicts with eerie precision. Now living in Mexico after fleeing the U.S., Phelan has filed a bombshell injunction against the CIA, alleging chemical attacks and systemic silencing. A whistleblower to some, a provocateur to others, she remains a fierce advocate for human rights—and a lightning rod for debate.
