In a January 5th 1996 teletype to select FBI field offices, FBI Director Louis Freeh revealed that the Southern Poverty Law Center, the radical left wing group run by civil rights lawyer Morris Dees, had an informant living in Elohim City, a white supremacist compound whose inhabitants have been closely linked to the Oklahoma City bombing. And that informant was dutifully reporting to Bill Clinton’s FBI. (1)
It’s thanks to Salt Lake City attorney Jesse Trentadue that we have this information, which proves “…the SPLC was engaged in an undercover role where they monitored subjects for the FBI believed to be linked to …Tim McVeigh…” (2)
Upon being leaked a redacted copy of the Freeh teletype, Trentadue filed a Freedom of Information Act request for the full document and any other information held by the Oklahoma City FBI field office pertaining to the SPLC, specifically, “all documents about any connection between the Southern Poverty Law Center and eight named individuals from the OKBOMB and BOMBROB investigations or a white supremacist compound in Elohim City, Okla.” (3)
When the FBI declared no such Freeh teletype existed, Trentadue produce his copy and an enraged US district court Judge Dale Kimball ordered the FBI to produce all responsive documentation. Though the FBI later admitted in response to Kimball’s order that some 340 documents had been discovered, the Bureau has been fighting the judge’s ruling they be turned over ever since the 2005 filing.
A number of obvious questions surround the substance of Freeh’s teletype. Why did the Clinton Department of Justice want or permit the “assistance” of Morris Dees and the SPLC? How much did the group’s informant learn while in Elohim City? What did he relate to the FBI and was it as much as he told his boss, Morris Dees?
During a 2003 press conference at Southeastern Oklahoma State University, Dees “…confirmed someone from his organization was inside the white supremacist compound at Elohim City on April 17, 1995,” just 2 days before the Murrah building bombing. “If I told you what we were doing there, I would have to kill you,” was Dees’ less than humorous response to a reporter’s question about the SPLC plant. (2)
The SPLC is a virulently anti-militia, anti-gun rights, anti-conservative organization which has worked over the years to advance the causes of the radical left. That the Clinton FBI and Department of Justice allowed the group to participate in an undercover mission which should have been restricted to legitimate law enforcement agencies is ludicrous.
Morris Dees has steadfastly refused to discuss the work his agent did at Elohim City, his reasons for wanting the spy to be in the area and the information the individual passed on to Dees just days, perhaps hours prior to the killing of 168 people in the Murrah building.
A true cynic might suggest both Dees and his agent KNEW of the imminent bombing and did nothing to help prevent it, content that the deadly plot would provide years of “ammunition” for SPLC attacks against an American militia movement which had gained enormous support following the FBI/ATF outrages committed at Ruby Ridge and Waco.
Of course, that would require a particularly cold blooded, murderous attitude be adopted by the radical left along with a despicable willingness to knowingly conflate the views of patriotic, Constitution-loving militia organizations with those of lunatic, neo-Nazi fringe groups.
And such dishonesty on the part of the far left hardly seems possible, now does it?

For years the Feds were barred from spying on domestic groups. So the Fed's outsourced to the Southern Poverty Lie Center, and others for this. They had people infiltrate groups and report back to the Feds.
I am the writer and producer for the newly released documentary, A Noble Lie:Oklahoma City 1995, the first feature length film to examine the OKC bombing in the light of new and suppressed evidence that the official story of the bombing is a cruel myth.

We interview Jesse Trentadue and many others whose credibility is without question. Keep up the good work.
What a pleasure to hear from you and have you visit Coach is Right. I am familiar with your film, having watched a number of trailers and the like available on Examiner.com. Hope to have the DVD I ordered by the end of the week. We have followed the story closely on Coach is Right and will continue to do provide updates and available information to CiR readers and as many other interested Americans as we can reach.
Jesse Trentadue, introduced to the story of Oklahoma City in such an extraordinarily tragic manner, deserves the thanks of every American for his years of very difficult and very frustrating work. As do you sir and those who worked with you on the Noble Lie project. Please let us at Coach is Right know if we can be of any assistance in your efforts.

Investigative journalism lives.
Murderous disinformation exercises must have been taught to Clinton and Obama by the KGB.
One of a number of examples is in "The Terminal Spy", in which Alan S. Cowell refers to a bomb attack on a Russian apartment house to fabricate a pretext for revival of a Russian war against Chechnya.
Allowing a known bombing conspiracy to run its course to reap a harvest of false propaganda against conservatives is quintessential Leninist.
Doug, you continue to astound me with the information you uncover! Good job matey!
That the FBI continues to refuse to release some 350 documents when they were under court order to do so since 2005, is, no doubt, the result of collusion and stonewalling by none other than Eric Holder, Clinton, and Obama.
Eric Holder remains the central core of all this deceit, lying, noncompliance and mayhem.
If all the links are finally made, and tightly so, these three men should be hanged for treason. (Lethal injection is too good for the manner of evil all three have spread across this land…they deserve the ignominy of being strung up for the lying thieves they are).
You are a treasure to all of us at CiR.
Joanne,
I certainly thank you for the praise and I'd love to claim some fabulous talent for ferreting out interesting stuff, but the tragic fact is all this information is sitting out there, readily available thanks to yeoman's work performed by Jesse Trentadue, J.D. Cash, Bob McCarty and a number (rather too small a number) of others. The point is, it all sounds new and remarkably untapped because the MSM has done NO REPORTING on one of the biggest news stories of our lifetimes!! After all, Ok. City took place during and was covered up BY the Clinton administration. I haven't even BEGUN to go into the numbers of people found murdered because they were asking too many questions at the time, said or saw the "wrong" things or happened to be in the wrong place doing their jobs…the Murrah building after the explosion, for example.
Anyone willing to invest a little time could have written the things I have. The disgrace is that no one who actually IS someone has bothered to do so! Check the famous folk from the NY Times, WaPo, CNN, MSNBC, FOX, ABC, on and on and you'll find no by-lines, no reports. It's inexcusable.
All the best, Jo.
Doug
