The D/Bags Are Watching

I sure most everyone has heard the statement “Big Brother Is Watching” and it is true.

As someone who was the target of the old COINTELPRO I can tell you that if you disagree with the government then they will find you and spy on you.

Since Donny took to the now destroyed White House there have been a wealth of spying on protesters and the groups that support them…..and it is getting worse…..

It’s time to familiarize yourselves with the names “Operation Puppet Master” and “Operation Keyhole.” If those nefarious phrases evoke to you the U.S. government’s domestic spying on leftist groups in the 1960s and 1970s, it’s for good reason. The terms are coinages of today’s Department of Homeland Security, and they’re associated with a massive covert surveillance effort that DHS unleashed earlier this year to track anti-Immigration and Customs Enforcement protests in Minneapolis, where Donald Trump’s violent paramilitary invasion triggered months of intense civil conflict.

We just learned about the broad outlines of this domestic surveillance from newly released court papers related to the ongoing prosecution of a handful of protesters. As The New York Times reported, the papers show that DHS began surveilling left-leaning groups—including a union, a climate change group, and others—after ICE killed Alex Pretti in January. This has entailed seeking financial records and infiltrating protest meetings that are protected by the First Amendment.

But you can get a far more vivid picture of these undercover surveillance operations—and how brazenly they were conducted against American citizens—if you read deep into the court papers. The documents—which are attached as exhibits to a motion filed by lawyers for one of the protesters facing prosecution and are available on Pacer—include investigative reports that were transmitted by the undercover agents themselves about meetings they infiltrated.

It’s jarring, revealing stuff. The reports show that covert agents surreptitiously attended well over a dozen protest meetings organized by groups like the Sunrise Movement and various small socialist organizations. In some cases the agents secretly recorded the gatherings.

Just a warning if you think about getting involved with the protests of Donny and the Gang….

One thought on “The D/Bags Are Watching

  1. More than 40 years ago during the Miner’s Strike here, undercover police posed as sympathisers to infiltrate the various groups of supporters. One cop went so far as to move in with a female protester and have a child with her. They are not only watching us, they are standing on the picket lines with us, and in some cases having sex with us too.

    Best wishes, Pete.
