XDNA Posted Monday at 10:20 AM Posted Monday at 10:20 AM Very fascinating and disturbing story. I recommend everyone listen or read the article, but it is a little long. https://www.propublica.org/article/ap3-oath-keepers-militia-mole A Freelance Vigilante: A wilderness survival trainer spent years undercover, climbing the ranks of right-wing militias. He didn't tell police or the FBI. He didn't tell his family or friends. The Future of Militias: He penetrated a new generation of militia leaders, which included doctors and government attorneys. Experts say that militias could have a renaissance under Donald Trump. Quote Williams believes extremists will try to murder him after this story is published. And if they fail, he thinks he'll "live to see the United States cease to exist." He identifies with the violent abolitionist John Brown, who tried to start a slave revolt two years before the American Civil War and was executed. Williams thinks he himself may not be seen as such a radical soon, he told me. "I wonder if I'm maybe a little too early." "Until they kill me, this is what I'm doing." He hopes to inspire others to follow in his footsteps and even start his own vigilante collective, running his own "agents" inside the far right. He wanted to test how the militia would respond to news of a mole. The result was something he long had hoped for: a wave of paranoia inside AP3. "It's a ******* risky thing we get involved in," Seddon, the group's founder, said in a private message. "******* trust nobody. There's ******* turncoats everywhere." (Seddon declined to comment for this story. He then sent a short follow-up email: "MAGA.") Sowing that distrust is why Williams is going on the record, albeit without his original name. He still plans to release thousands of files after this article is published — evidence tying sheriffs and police officers to the movement, his proudest coup, plus other records he hopes could become ammo for lawsuits. But Williams wants to let his former comrades know "a ****** is doing this to them." 11

Carla Rosón Posted Monday at 05:38 PM Posted Monday at 05:38 PM Quote We talked for days, with Williams splayed across a Best Western office chair beside the queen bed. He evoked an aging computer programmer with 100 pounds of muscle attached, and he seemed calmer than on the phone, endearingly offbeat. Oh!
