Well, well, well... Even the little ol' #ClamshellAlliance had an #FBIInformant (#Infiltraitor), who I had a bad gut feeling about. Trust your gut! Especially if they are encouraging more extreme actions! The Clamshell Alliance documentary I watched recently (#AcresOfClams) mentioned those who were advocating for more extreme stuff, but did not identify them (really a "him") as an infiltrator.

Longtime Paid FBI Informant Was Instrumental in Terror Case Against '#TurtleIslandLiberationFront'

Kash Patel and others touted the FBI’s investigative work, but the few available details point to a more complicated picture.

Excerpt: "An FBI investigation into an alleged terror plot in Southern California bears the familiar hallmarks of the bureau’s long-running use of informants and undercover agents to advance plots that might not otherwise have materialized, court documents show.
News of the plot surfaced Monday morning in a Fox News report that ran ahead of court filings or official statements. Within minutes, FBI officials amplified the story on social media.
'PROTECT THE HOMELAND and CRUSH VIOLENT CRIME,' wrote FBI Deputy Director Dan Bongino, a former podcaster. 'These words are not slogans, they’re the investigative pillars of this FBI.'

"What followed, however, painted a more complicated picture.

"The limited details available suggest an investigation that leaned heavily on a paid informant and at least one undercover FBI agent, according to an affidavit filed in federal court. The informant and the undercover agent were involved in nearly every stage of the case, including discussions of operational security and transporting members of the group to the site in the Mojave Desert where federal agents ultimately made the arrests.

"The informant, who has worked other cases on the FBI’s payroll since 2021, had been in contact with the group known as the Turtle Island Liberation Front since at least late November, just two months after President Donald Trump designated '#antifa' a domestic terrorism organization.

"On the morning of December 15, FBI Director Kash Patel announced the arrests, calling the plot 'a credible, imminent terrorist threat.'

"Yet the case had the familiar markings of FBI terrorism stings that stretch back more than two decades — hundreds of cases that have disproportionately targeted left-wing activists and Muslims, and, less often, right-wing actors."

Longtime Paid FBI Informant Was Instrumental in Terror Case Against “Turtle Island Liberation Front”

Kash Patel touted the FBI’s investigative work against the “Turtle Island Liberation Front,” whose YouTube channel has 18 followers. A paid FBI informant did a heavy lift.

Heh. Yup I was part of the 1800 who marched on April 30, 1977. But I didn't jump the fence. My grandmother would have KILLED ME! (I was underage). I was part of the ones who came through the marshes (on paths I knew from clamming there as a kid) and led the way. But I didn't dare go all the way. Folks there understood. I remember we brought flat boards to walk over the gullies!

#OccupySeabrook #ClamshellAlliance

So, I doubt if the #AcresOfClams documentary talks about the #FBI #Infiltraitor. So far, I've seen no mention of him!

#ClamshellAlliance #OccupySeabrook

@dasparky When some of the folks in the #ClamshellAlliance got sick of the "therapy sessions," they splintered off to TAKE ACTION! (And yes, I was part of the splinter group...)
#OccupySeabrook
It's taking me forever to get through #AcresOfClams! Taking notes, remembering folks. I had first seen Dr. #HelenCaldicott speak back in 1976 (and interviewed with her for a job years later in 1990). And #HarveyWasserman! Seeing them speak and being part of the #ClamshellAlliance were instrumental in making me an activist! So grateful I had a "big sister and big brother" who took me to meetings and rallies! They were some good people!

Doing some research today, and came across this documentary about my old group, #TheClamshellAlliance! Watching this on the tele tonight. I'm sure I'll see some old friends in the footage!

Today in Labor History May 24, 1980: Hundreds were arrested in the occupation of Seabrook, New Hampshire, nuclear power plant construction site. The Clamshell Alliance was the main organizer. Founding members of the Clamshell Alliance include presidential candidate and left-green activist, Howie Hawkins, as well as journalist and anti-nukes activist Harvey Wasserman. Keith McHenry, cofounder of Food Not Bombs, also cut his activist teeth with the Clamshells.

Cool documentary about the anti-nuclear Clamshell Alliance in 1970s Seabrook, New Hampshire. It runs about an hour and 45 minutes in length.

Honestly, I don't know how fellow #Autist #GretaThunberg can put up with being jailed. In all my years of activism and mischief-making, I've managed to avoid that. TBH, jail is like my worst nightmare (because I was traumatized not once, but twice at a young age, by being locked in a closet -- a tale for another day). I always need to have an "escape route" where-ever I am. And that's why I showed the #ClamshellAlliance the secret path to the nuclear plant site (I knew it from when I clammed with my family), but did NOT go with them during the occupation. I mean, I was 14 years old and my grandmother (see my other posts) would have KILLED ME! (And she moved Heaven and Earth for me, so I didn't want to betray her trust). But yeah. Kudos to Greta! She's way braver than myself!

@WIREID91LDNON I wonder how much of the discord within #Occupy was from the outside. Just saying. I ID'ed an #FBI infiltraitor in the #ClamshellAlliance when I was a just a teen. All that shit is real. Also with the left infiltrating the right as well as #ACAB and #Tigerswan and #Blackwater. Who can we trust?! Things have been murky for decades -- and even murkier now (I just read a piece about a wilderness school guide who got inside the far right).
