FBI spied on TEA Party Americans
Exclusive to the Northeast Intelligence Network & Canada Free Press

Even as average Americans were planning to get out in towns and cities to demonstrate against Big Government and Big Taxes, Federal Bureau of Intelligence Investigation (FBI) surveillance was being unleashed upon them. In fact, unsuspecting Tax Day TEA Party participants were being closely watched during the demonstration planning stages in a covert operation that began on or about March 23, 2009.
If you one of the estimated 750,000 Americans who attended one of about 600 TEA parties last week, you might have seen media cameras covering the event. Media cameras, however, were not the only cameras taking video at these events, something that has at least one current FBI agent concerned over the future of America. According to this agent – the same agent who provided the Northeast Intelligence Network (NEIN) exclusively the unreleased photographs of the 11 missing Egyptian students who were the subject of a FBI BOLO in August 2006–placed his concerns for true patriots of the U.S. over his own career when he confided that covert surveillance was “planned and performed” at each of the TEA parties that took place last Tuesday.
“Listen to what I am saying,” stated the source during an interview with Doug Hagmann, founder (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. This is what bothers me. But is goes far beyond that assessment. 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.”
According to this unimpeachable source, a single-page confidential directive issued by the FBI headquarters in Washington, DC (FBIHQ) was sent to each of the 56 field offices located across the United States on or about March 23, 2009, instructing the Special Agents in Charge (SACs) of those offices to verify the date, time and location of each TEA Party within their region and supply that information to FBI headquarters in Washington. The source stated this correspondence termed the TEA parties “political demonstrations,” and added that the dissemination of the directive was very tightly controlled. “Not all agents were privy to this correspondence,” stated the source, who compared the dissemination to an older “Do Not File” classification.
In addition to obtaining or confirming the location and time of each “demonstration,” each field office was instructed to obtain or confirm the identity of the individual(s) involved in the actual planning and coordination of the event in each specific region, and include the local or regional Internet web site address, if any. 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.”
Although the level of detail collected from each operation is unclear, the information was reportedly submitted to Washington, where, “at the level of the National Security Branch (NSB), this information was to “include the office of the Directorate of Intelligence (DI), and integrated with a restricted access database, one that reportedly is accessible to only two agencies” [of the 14 agencies that comprise the U.S. intelligence community, according to the source.
“The implications to the citizens of the U.S. are ominous. It seems that there is a hostile political agenda coming from Washington that characterizes the supporters of our constitutional freedoms as threats to our domestic security, which is totally absurd. The redirection, the refocusing of domestic threats from al Qaeda cells to ‘flag waving right-wingers’ is something that has gone from a murmur a few years ago to a roar today.”
Training government-issued cameras on ordinary citizens, many of whom brought their children to an estimated 600 Tax Day TEA Parties is a page torn out of George Orwell’s 1984 and makes the term “God Bless America” more meaningful than ever.
The Northeast Intelligence Network and Canada Free Press expect the government’s denial of the surveillance of the TEA Parties to go viral as soon as this story is posted.
No surprise here, just disgust. We are after all right-wing terrorists. Guarantee you that all of us are on the list for participating in this and other blogs. Heck, I won’t be surprised when I see my face plastered on an FBI wanted poster! But before it comes to that, they better be prepared for a FIGHT. This administration better wake up to the civil war they are creating within this country.
No surprise that a hostile political agenda is coming from DC. That was THE GOAL in the first place, right?
Debbie,
Your face will have the company of tens of thousands of other “right wing extremists/terrorists.”
It’ll be interesting to see how Homeland Insecurity & the FBI manage to cope with so many potential domestic terrorists.
DCG,
You may be right about their hostile political agenda, but it sure makes you wonder why they want to be so obvious. Or then again, maybe they want us hostile on certain issues so they can fool us by sliding in a different issue that nobody will pay any attention to.
I was never much on conspiracies, mostly because I trusted most politicians that said they were like me. In the past, a conspiracy would never even cross my mind, now with this new president, I see conspiracies almost everywhere. Good lord, what’s happened to my country?
Gio-
I think there’s several reasons why they are so obvious. 1) Soros and his minions have made it quite clear what their intentions are and now that they’ve won, they’re moving full steam ahead. 2) The Traitor, believing he is the messiah, has to move as fast as possible before people catch on to his real agenda. 3) You’re right, move on this target so you’re distracted from another target he’s moving forward. 4) Back to Alinsky again. “Change” has always been a code word for creating a socialist revolution. Once I learned of this Alinsky, their training methods, and ultimate goals, I was VERY SCARED for this hope and change BS we all ended up with. “Politics was the only effective way that the socialist elites could mobilize the have-nots to take power from the haves.” No consiprancies in my opinion, it was out in front for us all to see, and now we suffer from the stupidity of 52% of the voters.
Have you guys read about HR 1419? This is getting really unsettling.
Do you have a link? I searched and saw the “Freedom to Bank Act”. Is that it?
DCG,
Here’s the info. I read through it and don’t find much wrong with it. I wonder if Michele has the correct number?
