Notas del episodio
John “TIG” Teigen is a United States Marine Corps veteran and former CIA Ground Response Staff(GRS) paramilitary contractor who defended a CIA annex and American consulate in Benghazi, Libya during the 13-hour battle that began on September 11, 2012.
John shared his story from Marine Corps infantryman, to private contractor, and eventual path into the elite GRS unit that took him on more than 60 deployments around the world conducting covert personal security detail(PSD) and security operations for CIA Case Officers carrying out America’s intelligence gathering efforts around the globe.
Other topics include the repeated requests for additional security preceding the attacks, how the State Department, Obama Administration, and CIA reacted to the attacks, how John became a GRS operator without any prior combat experience, Blackwater, Triple Canopy, and how prime security contractors funnel shooters to the CIA’s covert paramilitary branch.
John is running for Mayor of Colorado Springs, Colorado in the Spring of 2027, and you can find him on his website: https://tigtiegen.com/
