Nothing special. I spent a year undercover inside the Hanoi Lobby “anti-Vietnam” movement. Because I saw some acts of violence by the Left when they tried to attack VP Agnew in Jan. 1969, I was asked to assist the Bureau in identifying the attackers.
I was signed to veteran agents because of information I was getting about the real leaders of the anti-Vietnam movement, mainly key members of the Communist Party USA and the Socialist Workers Party, plus some possible KGB-front operatives who came to the US.
A lot of this was in my congressional testimony but a lot wasn’t as the testimony was printed in Aug. 1969 and released in Oct. 1969 but what I found out between that time added a whole new dimension to communist control of the major anti-Vietnam demonstrations and organizations (Nat. Mobe, New Mobe, later PCPJ and NPAC).
Toss in some undercover work in CPUSA legal fronts where William Kunstler told us about the coming attacks on the judge and court in the Chicago 7 trial, plus the interesting admissions of a possible Soviet atomic spy, and a few other things, (some not included in the testimony), and you have a year well spent inside the traitorous Left.
Been doing internal security research and writing since 1970 and loving it. Problem is that there is so much going on that there aren’t enough of us in journalism who are covering it, and I’m sure that the FBI cannot do it for lack of manpower. Plus they have been ordered to look at white patriotic groups and veterans as domestic terrorists instead of looking at homegrown and imported Islamists, communists, and just plain wackjobs.
Very interesting review of your work, thanks. Must be... interesting... to see those you watched way back then for the FBI, now strolling the halls of power in D.C. with the FBI protecting them.
