The information collected by region was then reportedly sent to FBI Headquarters. The source alleges that a second directive was issued on or about April 6, 2009 that reportedly instructed each SAC to coordinate and conduct, either at the field office level and/or with the appropriate resident agency, covert video surveillance and data collection of the participants of the TEA parties. Surveillance was to be performed from “discreet fixed or mobile positions” and was to be performed “independently and outside of the purview of local law enforcement.” T For Texas, T For Tennessee!

I was at both the Nashville and Murfreeseboro Tea Parties. There were way more "don't tread on me" flags than I expected to see even for good ol' TN, but everybody was nice and peaceful. There was nothing threatening about it... unless your name is Bart Gordon and you hope to win re-election, in TN, ever again. As for the FBI "spying". Well, we Tennesseans aren't of the mind to go hiding things. Our best State Rep IMO Marsha Blackburn spoke at both the rallies I was at and Lt Gov. Ron Ramsey spoke at the Murfreesboro event. Anybody who thought they were "spying" should have felt pretty silly what with the US house rep and Lt Governor speaking to friendly (to them) crowds being covered by local news media. We certainly weren't trying to hide anything. Politicians have every reason to be very worried about re-election. Nobody threatened anything more than an open mouth and a vote. |

Couldn't agree more...I was at Nashville's, and saw the same that you did. The FBI would have to fabricate any report of violence or "extremism", unless you count us being extremely pissed at being treated like we are idiots by Washington. We had NOTHING to hide. 2010: the last chance to push back significantly, or our democratic republic may be finished. It is just so jackbooted for the FBI to do this crap. Go get some surveillance of the islamic terrorist training camps in our country. Over 30 of them. Islamburg is a good example. Oh, but it's so much easier to goon around at a peaceful, productive protest against debt insanity. |

The Monk User ID: 618680 ![]() 04/23/2009 01:34 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Holy crap. This does not surprise me, which is really quite unsettling in and of itself. Quoting: snark[link to rightsoup.com] This is according to a concerned FBI agent, who has leaked to Canada Free Press that Americans were spied upon by the Agency at TEA parties around the country. An FBI agent risked his own career, according to this report- covert surveillance was “planned and performed” at each of the TEA parties that took place last Tuesday. Listen to what I am saying,” the source said during an interview with Doug Hagmann, founder of the Northeast Intelligence Network. (NEIN). “The Department of Homeland Security Intelligence Assessment that is receiving so much attention is just the tip of the proverbial iceberg, and the true patriotic citizens of this country are on the Titanic. There have been very significant changes made over the last few years that redirect the focus and assets of the intelligence community internally. These changes have greatly accelerated under this administration, and the threats have been redefined to include those who used to be patriots. It’s not only chilling but absolutely insulting to God-fearing Americans.” Canada Free Press/Northeast Intelligence Network considers their source “impeachable.” They identify him as the same agent who provided NEIN exclusive, unreleased photographs of 11 missing Egyptian students who were the subject of a FBI BOLO in August 2006. There are a whole lot more details...including videotaping, identifying tea party leaders and more at the link. [link to rightsoup.com] If Avian's around: Tick, tock is right, my friend.
