In the summer of 2020, an FBI informant posing as an antifa warrior in a silver hearse loaded with guns descended on protests to infiltrate and disrupt Denver's racial justice movement. In Colorado Springs, the FBI attempted similar efforts to undermine racial justice movements there. Investigative reporter Trevor Aaronson reveals secret undercover recordings exposing federal entrapment schemes targeting unsuspecting Americans in both Denver and Colorado Springs. Bob and Scott talk with Trevor Aaronson about his reporting in the podcast series "Alphabet Boys." They discuss FBI infiltration, disruption and attempts to entrap activists in Denver and Colorado Springs. They discuss parallels between the FBI's COINTELPRO of the 1960s and 1970s and the FBI's post-911 mission. And they talk about how politics in Washington DC don't allow for any real change on the state's war against the left.

Scott interviews journalist and author Trevor Aaronson about an article he recently published for the Intercept. Aaronson has been one of the best reporters exposing how the FBI uses paid informants to manipulate people into agreeing to carry out violent attacks and other crimes so the agency can swoop in and pretend it's taking dangerous terrorists off the street. His Intercept article examines one such case from about a decade ago. Scott and Aaronson dig into what happened. They then shift to a broader discussion of FBI entrapment schemes against both right and left-wing dissidents as well as financial criminals. Last, they reflect on the current political environment to question if there will ever be accountability for the FBI.  Discussed on the show: “The ‘Terrorist', the Rapist, and Me” (The Intercept) “U.S. Government Quietly Declassifies Post-9/11 Interview With Bush and Cheney” (The Intercept) American ISIS Podcast Series Aaronson's TED Talk The Terror Factory by Trevor Aaronson Trevor Aaronson is a contributing writer for The Intercept and executive director of the nonprofit Florida Center for Investigative Reporting.

​Former FBI Director James Comey's recent assertion that "the FBI is honest, the FBI is strong," outraged all of us familiar with COINTELPRO. In this episode, Page sits down with Muhammad Sankari, a youth organizer with the Arab American Action Network, to learn more about the current evolution (and dishonesty) of the FBI since 9/11. Muhammad discusses The Terror Factory: Inside the FBI's Manufactured War on Terrorism, a 2014 book by Trevor Aaronson. Through investigative journalism, Aaronson exposes how the FBI has built a massive network of informants whose primary purpose is to infiltrate Muslim communities to create and facilitate phony terrorist plots so that the Bureau can then claim it is winning the war on terror.

Aftermath of the Boston Bombings: The FBI, Canada and the Politics of Terror “In terrorism stings, it's really only the FBI that's making it possible for people who otherwise couldn't acquire weapons, who couldn't build a bomb to move forward in an act of terrorism like we're seeing in these sting operations. So, it's really the FBI that's making the crime possible in a way that they aren't with traditional drug stings even though it's very much the same type of tactic that they're using today.” -Trevor Aaronson “At different points of time in history non-Anglo and Francophone Canadians and including Francophones during the independence movement in Quebec were terrorists… everybody's been interned. Every group has been interned or labeled treasonous when it was convenient to do so.” - Rocco Galati Speculation and skepticism percolates through the World Wide Web with regard to the official narrative of the Boston Bombings. On the day of the attacks, the FBI was placed in charge of the official investigation. [1] To date, critical questions about the FBI's role in these and other terrorist plots have yet to be addressed. As documented on Global Research, the FBI has been caught deliberately lying about their actions and activities. [2] Thoroughly documented, the FBI has been pivotal in the manufacture of several terrorist plots in the US. [3] Trevor Aaronson's pioneering work on the subject of FBI involvement in infiltrating and entrapping terrorist suspects made the cover of Mother Jones magazine in 2011 and became listed as one of the top 25 most censored stories of 2011-2012 by the media democracy organization Project Censored. This history is critical background in any sober analysis of the incident. In Canada, the Conservative government invoked the Boston attacks to rush through legislation resurrecting previously sunsetted anti-terrorism provisions of preventative arrest and secret investigative hearings. By an amazing coincidence,  the same week the Canadian Parliament was debating the new anti-terrorism bill, the RCMP announced the arrest of two individuals implicated in a plot to attack a Via Rail passenger train. [4] The RCMP said little about the evidence of their guilt though they helpfully volunteered the perpetrator's links with Al Qaeda in Iran. Considering the enmity being expressed toward Iran by the US and Canada among other Western Countries, this tidbit interestingly parallels the innuendo of Iraq's alleged links to terrorism in the lead up to the 2003 Iraq War. In an effort to deconstruct the propaganda around the War on Terrorism's biggest PR boost in years, the Global Research News Hour delves into the Boston Bombings and its aftermath. In this week's show, Trevor Aaronson, author of “The Terror Factory: Inside the FBI's Manufactured War on Terrorism” examines the agency's role of deliberately creating the plots they then disrupt. Aaronson's analysis speaks to the FBI's focus on marginalized individuals at the expense of real dangers. Then, Canadian Constitutional Lawyer Rocco Galati trashes the recently passed Combating Terrorism Act as a completely unnecessary threat to civil liberties with consequences that go beyond Islamic extremism. Finally, Global Research's Julie Lévesque provides a much needed overview of the Boston Bombings legend and the critical questions the mainstream media should be asking but is not.
