Joe Shea

Joe Shea (born c. 1947) is an American activist and conspiracy theorist known for his anti-establishment views and involvement in various fringe movements. He is best known for his website, "The American Reporter," which he founded in the 1990s and used as a platform to promote his perspectives on government corruption, alleged conspiracies, and other controversial topics.

Shea's background includes military service, and he has claimed involvement in various intelligence operations, although these claims are often disputed. He has been associated with individuals involved in various anti-government and militia groups. His writings and pronouncements often involve accusations against government officials and agencies, and he has been a vocal critic of what he perceives as a New World Order.

While he has gained a following among some within the conspiracy theory community, Shea's views are generally considered to be outside the mainstream and have been met with skepticism by many. His work is often characterized by unsubstantiated claims and lacks credible evidence. He has also been criticized for spreading misinformation and promoting divisive rhetoric.
