TED GUNDERSON IN HIS FBI OFFICE
"We'll
know our disinformation program is complete when everything the
American public believes is false."
--William
Casey, CIA Director (1981)
"Expose,
disrupt, misdirect, discredit, neutralize or otherwise eliminate"
the activities of these movements and their leaders."
-- Directives
governing COINTELPRO issued to FBI agents by J. Edgar Hoover
"According
to my belief, and I have as good of, uh, access to information as
anyone in the world, probably, anyone I know of. About 30% of what's
written on Veterans Today, is patently false. About 40% of what I
write, is at least purposely, partially false, because if I didn't
write false information I wouldn’t be alive. I simply have to do
that. I write...anything I write I write between the lines."
--Gordon
Duff, from radio program hosted by Mike Harris, RBN (2012)
"On March 24, 1971, I became
the first reporter to inform readers that the FBI wanted the American
people to think there was an 'FBI agent behind every mailbox.'"
--Betty Medsger, former
Washington Post reporter, author of The Burglary: the Discovery of
J. Edgar Hoover's Secret FBI
"The
government lies, lies all the time, and lies even when the truth
would serve it well."
--Dave
Champion, talk show host, former Army Ranger, former police officer,
author of INCOME TAX SHATTERING THE MYTHS, America's foremost expert
on the misapplication of the Federal Income Tax aka “the largest
financial crime in the history of the world”.
"By 1973 Ted Gunderson was fbi
inspector and served in that capacity during most or all of my
remaining years in the fbi. Gunderson was knowledgeable of my reports
on the Rodriquez case and of the orders from Hoover to end my career.
By 1978 the
New York office (under SAC Alfred E. Smith) orchestrated my forced
resignation with the full knowledge of the fbi assistant director,
New York division, and with Ted Gunderson's blessing.
Thus, by
connecting the dots over the past several decades, I am certain that
Hoover, his henchmen Jenkins, Gunderson, et. al, all participated in
the destruction of my life in order to discredit and discourage me
from reporting the many crimes committed by fbi agents.
Today, the
fbi is in near panic mode to 'finish me off', as I have documented in
many pages of my website. The fbi's methods to torture, imprison,
force suicide or kill Targets has become the primary focus of my work
online for the past 14 years.
Thanks in
part to my friend Barbara Hartwell, I have been able to survive and
to expand my reports on the unending attacks on me by the most
heinous thugs whom this nation has ever produced: the homicidal
sociopaths of fbi/cia."
--Former
FBI Agent Geral Sosbee (2014)
"The
devastating effects of the illegal and traitorous activities of
fbi/cia Cointel chiefs such as Ted Gunderson (Gun), Al Smith, James
Brien Comey, et al, are profoundly embedded in the national psyche
and are inherently and imperceptibly destructive of American rights
and values.
So
that today many Americans in their blind trust in and support for
so-called leaders have become 1) insensitive to atrocities and 2)
participants in or *accessories to the many felonies committed in
their name. Wars, assassinations, torture, all are ongoing today here
as well as "over there". (See my affidavits 2007 and 2014
for specifics) .
Gun
and his defenders hide the truth from the public because an
enlightened people cannot tolerate a murderous, inhumane government
which will stop at nothing to achieve its **outrageous objectives. A
righteous domestic uprising will certainly be met with mass murders
and incarceration by USA gens d'armes and Cointel operatives.
Thus
the people are metaphorically hog tied by the homicidal psychopaths
who dictate national policy and who by guile and trickery have the
confidence of the general population.”
--Geral
Sosbee (2015)
"I'll
give you credit for one thing. You are very good at your Campaign
Propaganda efforts."
--Ted
Gunderson to Barbara Hartwell, from his Open Letter to Barbara
Hartwell, published by Ken Adachi on 'Educate-Yourself' (2005)
"I
was very active in the COINTELPRO program. Particularly the [media]
back East during the 1960s, and through the Vietnam War. You know we
used it against them [the media and activists] and it was very
effective. And it’s very effective today. And they’re using it
today. But what they’re doing today, makes the old COINTELPRO
program by the FBI back in the 60s look like a Sunday school class."
--Ted
Gunderson publicly acknowledges his involvement in COINTELPRO. (Quote
taken from radio interview with Alex Jones.)
"Who
knows what evil lurks in the hearts of men? The Shadow knows..."

The
above entry in Wikipedia is probably the first thing you will find
when placing Ted Gunderson's name in a search engine. It is the
official story, shrink wrapped and presented to the public by the
government. And no doubt, the facts given here are true.
But
there is another story, also true, which will not appear on the
government-controlled sites such as Wikipedia. Some of the story has
been told, in bits and pieces, here and there, from sources credible
and trustworthy. Some of the story has been tainted by lies and
disinformation, even black propaganda. The friends and supporters of
Ted Gunderson may remain loyal because they are emotionally attached,
and/or have been hoodwinked, and/or because they have something to
lose if the truth comes out. The enemies of Ted Gunderson may
fabricate tales and bear false witness, either out of malice, and/or
because they also have something to lose if the truth comes out.
Speaking
for myself, I can state with conviction that I have nothing to lose
if the truth comes out. Not because I've already lost so much that
there is nothing left to lose (there is), but because the truth can
only vindicate me and the others who have worked for decades,
shedding our blood, sweat and tears, in the pursuit of justice for
the atrocities visited upon us, our loved ones, and the American
people in general.
Ted
Gunderson certainly exemplified the general attitudes which were the
driving force behind such grievous injustices and the betrayal of a
nation by its intelligence services and their minions, toadies and
dupes.
Like
all such stories, the saga of 'patriot celebrity' Ted Gunderson has
spawned conspiracy theories galore; it has many elements of mystery,
which may never be solved, even should the facts somehow miraculously
all be documented, the evidence presented and wrapped up in a tidy
package. True stories don't work that way. As in quantum physics,
where the results of experiments are influenced by the observer, so
do the consciousness and perceptions of witnesses and participants
become inextricably woven into the fabric of the story.
But
of all the array of information that may be presented, from various
and diverse sources, be they hard indisputable facts, documented
evidence, wild speculation, idle gossip, unwarranted assumptions, it
is a story we would do well not to ignore. Those who don't know
history are doomed to repeat it.
This
report examines the recent efforts made by two well known purveyors
of false information, Gordon Duff, editor of 'Veterans Today', and
Ken Adachi, editor of 'Educate-Yourself', to prop up the dubious
reputation of the late Ted L. Gunderson, FBI Chief/COINTELPRO
Kingpin.
Adachi,
a malicious liar extraordinaire, who runs a government disinfo
website (also rife with New Age quackery), has been holding Gunderson
aloft as an icon of patriotism and integrity since at least 2000,
while concurrently running a massive libel/slander campaign against
Barbara Hartwell.
Adachi
claims that Barbara Hartwell is a “CIA disinfo agent”, a smear he
parrots from Gunderson, the Master of Disinfo himself. Gunderson was
J. Edgar Hoover's protege', instrumental since at least 1956 in
COINTELPRO's war on American citizens who have chosen to exercise
their God-given, unalienable right to disagree with the government
(as well we should!)
Gordon
Duff, who unlike Adachi, has admitted to being a liar (his public
statement that 30-40% of the material he publishes on Veterans Today
is “patently false”), has published an article titled, The
Strange Case of Ted Gunderson.
It is
important to state that I do not know either Ken Adachi or Gordon
Duff. I base my analyses of these individuals on their own published
statements and on their observed and documented actions over a period
of years.
But I did
know Ted Gunderson, very well. He was at one time a professional
colleaugue and a close personal friend.
I worked
with Ted from 1997 to 2000. I worked cases with him, went on the
lecture circuit with him (as well as TV and radio interviews), and
broke off my association with him when I discovered the truth –
that Ted Gunderson was not the patriotic hero and whistleblower I had
believed him to be. That he had come into my life not to “help”
me or support me in my cause of pursuing justice for the crimes CIA
had committed against me and members of my family (of which he was
well aware), but had been planted on me by that very same Agency, in
their attempts to “contain” the true story I had decided to come
forth as a government whistleblower, to tell.
Ted
Gunderson was running a containment operation/protection racket, the
objective of which was to discredit and neutralize actual
whistleblowers (former military, law enforcement & intelligence
professionals) who were deemed a threat to “National Security”. I
have known quite a number of these individuals, some of whom have
shared their stories with me (along with documentation), some of whom
have gone public, others who have not. But they all tell the same
basic story about the consequences they suffered as a result of their
involvement (in one way or another) with Ted Gunderson and his
criminal accomplices.
I should
say right up front that Ted Gunderson broke my heart. This may seem a
strange statement, considering the fact that after I broke off my
association with him (2000), up until the day he died (2011), I had
been involved in an adversarial relationship with him. Most of the
battle was carried out behind the scenes, involving some quite
bizarre elements. What I have reported publicly is only a small
fraction of the story, the whole of which might stretch credibility,
especially for those who don't believe in the supernatural realm. But
that is beyond the scope of this report.
The truth
is, I loved Ted Gunderson as if he were my own father. For this
reason, I don't believe I have ever been totally objective where he
is concerned, nor that I can ever be. Which means, if anything, that
I have been biased in his favor, rather than quick to believe the
worst about him.
And I have
forgiven Ted in my heart long ago. But how could I, once knowing the
truth, not expose it? Lives were ruined by the FBI and CIA, good
people were persecuted, tortured and killed. And still, it goes on
today....
But,
totally objective or not, my opinion of Ted Gunderson is based on
direct knowledge and experience, both personally and professionally.
I have a large file of documents (some written by Gunderson in his
own handwriting) to support this considered professional opinion.
(One such
document has become a bone of contention, including among several
individuals quoted herein, that being a letter written to me by Ted
Gunderson (1998), on FBI stationery, in connection with Ted's
marriage to Diana Rively, the ex-wife of Anton LaVey, founder of the
Church of Satan. This document was first made public in 2011, shortly
before Ted Gunderson's death, when I gave it to my friend, journalist
Sherri Kane.)
You will
read additional statements from former FBI agent Geral Sosbee, who
did not know Ted Gunderson personally, but whose life and career were
severely damaged by Gunderson's actions and omissions.
(It should
also be noted that Barbara Hartwell and Geral Sosbee both worked in
counterintelligence operations, while serving in FBI and CIA,
respectively, but that neither of us had anything to do with Hoover's
official COINTELPRO.)
On the
other hand, in this report you will read a number of statements
published by those who did not know Ted Gunderson, including Gordon
Duff and the (mostly anonymous) commentators on his website, Veterans
Today. Then, there is man named Jim How, clearly a government
stooge, who made a video on Ted Gunderson, published on Ken Adachi's
website. (A hint: there will be no lack of entertainment in this
report.)
But before I
get into any of that material, here is a document from my files,
written by Ted Gunderson. It is an excerpt from a letter to Larry
Flynt, publisher of Hustler magazine. Following are my comments,
taken from a previous report.
TED GUNDERSON
SOLICITS PORN KING LARRY FLYNT FOR COINTELPRO
"Organize a
select group of trusted, loyal Americans to operate an effective
legal
counter-intelligence operation. The goal of a counter-intelligence
operation is to educate and, in some instances, to disrupt the enemy
by mailing anonymous letters to selected individuals and groups in
order to create distrust and paranoia. Another goal is to furnish
disinformation and create confusion. I was a counter-intelligence
expert in the FBI and I am aware of numerous techniques with which to
work towards this goal. I wish to emphasize we will not conduct any
criminal or illegal activity, nor violate any laws. All activities
would be legal. There are other techniques than can be used, in
addition to anonymous letters, i.e., telephone calls from public
telephones. Disinformation can also be spread on radio and television
talk shows."
**********
First, I would
say that Gunderson's choice of an accomplice for his operation, the
notorious pornographer, publisher of Hustler magazine, has got to be
the lowest sleazoid on the planet. Ask yourself, who would want to do
business with a low-life like Flynt?
Next,
note that Ted Gunderson states that he was "a
counter-intelligence expert in the FBI." Really? Then any
reasonable person is left to draw the conclusion that Ted Gunderson
was COINTELPRO, as that is the primary counter-intelligence operation
in the FBI.
And
now, he is looking to recruit more accomplices for his "legal"
counter-intelligence operation.
"A
select group of trusted, loyal Americans..."
Who could these
"loyal Americans" be?
Let's start
with some known associates of Ted L. Gunderson: Ken Adachi; Timothy
Patrick White; Larry Lawson; Pamela Schuffert; John DeCamp. There are
others, too numerous to mention, but these names will certainly be
recognizable to anyone with an interest in the controversy this issue
has generated over the past decade.
And
for a damning statement, this one can't be beat: "Disinformation
can also be spread on radio and television talk shows."
So,
Ted Gunderson, in his own words, suggests spreading disinformation!
And as many of us who have become his Targets know, he's done just
that, in spades.
I can't count
the times that Ted has gone on the airwaves slandering Barbara
Hartwell, stating that I am a "government spook" or "CIA
disinfo agent."
[For the
primary example, at least in print, see the New Age/government
disinformation website of Gunderson's PR shill, Ken Adachi.]
Fact
is, this operation has been running for a long time. Ted Gunderson,
joined by his cronies and amateur recruits (government stooges Tim
White, Pam Schuffert, Ken Adachi, Todd Fahey, Larry Lawson et al)
have wreaked havoc on the lives of many COINTELPRO Targets. And there
is no end in sight.....
As
far as I can see, this so-called "legal"
counter-intelligence operation will continue until the lives of the
Targets are so far destroyed that there is no hope to repair the
damages.
And
by the way, there is nothing "legal" about fraud, criminal
stalking, identity theft, extortion, criminal harassment, death
threats, murder-for hire schemes, inciting violence and
terrorism.....this operation is a criminal conspiracy par excellence,
rife with most every crime imaginable. Racketeering at its finest.
GORDON
DUFF ENDORSES TED GUNDERSON
As regards
Gordon Duff, it did not surprise me in the slightest that he would
come out with an article in support of the credibility of Ted
Gunderson.
But before
I get to that, here is an excerpt from a previous report (2013):
Agenda
Politics & Media Whores: Selling Out America
Al Gore. George Soros. George W. Bush.
Barack Hussein Obama. The United Nations. The Federal Reserve.
Neo-Nazis & White Supremacists.
Can any
self-respecting defender of God-given unalienable rights and
liberties, as protected under the Constitution, any true patriot, say
they would support, promote or traffic with these godless
individuals, groups or entities?
Not on
your life.
And yet
there are a number of individuals who have proved by their actions,
by their words, by their ever-shifting and opportunistic personal and
political alliances, that not only are their claims of being patriots
false, but who have sold out the true patriots among us, those of us
whose principles remain firm, unchanging, and uncompromising, year
after year, decade after decade, no matter the consequences to
ourselves, those of us who stand up for our country, who stand
against tyranny in any form, against the criminals, liars, political
hacks and traitors who are running this country into the ground.
In this
statement [See quotes at top of page] Gordon Duff, editor of Veterans
Today, openly admits to being a liar. And makes the pathetic excuse
that the "false information" he promotes is necessary to
keep him alive. Doesn't that tell you everything you need to know
about Gordon Duff? Why then, would any intelligent person believe
anything he has to say? Falsus in uno, falsus in omnibus, in legal
terms. And why would any honest person associate with him, or become
a columnist on his website?
Answer:
Nobody, except someone for whom agenda politics (of one kind or
another) takes precedence over everything else, including the truth.
In
corroboration and agreement re Gordon Duff, here is a statement from
Geral Sosbee (2014):
DECORATED
COMBAT VET (VIETNAM) GERAL SOSBEE COMMENTS ON 'VETERANS TODAY'
"I trust that
'Veterans Today' does not actually believe that Mr. Gordon Duff
represents in his editorials the real veteran today, because he
surely does not in my opinion. This veteran views Mr. Duff as a
propagandist (however much misguided or unintended) for the corrupt
and murderous intelligence agencies that have *overthrown the US
government.
As I read his
comments, I find nothing that seeks to edify the reader regarding the
cowardly and out of control assassins of fbi, cia, dod, nsa, all of
whom in large part run this country. Further, any agenda by any
author that obscures the causes or genesis of the USA's macabre
culture -as forged by military and intelligence agency fools- is of
no tangible use to the people and is seen as such by informed people
everywhere.
Also, as Mr.
Duff is a former Marine, I find that even they are not forthcoming
concerning their roles in the development and application of DEW
technology that is used to torture me and others today. The same high
tech weaponry invented and deployed by the US Marines is intended by
its design to force suicide or to cause mental & physical
breakdown and death of many Targets (foreign & domestic).
See:
(Add key words
to search: neuronal entrainment, non lethal application.)
So, let the
record show that when media, both mainstream and internet, are
dominated by big mouths with big 'totalitarian' microphones, the
people suffer and the nation falls deeper into the abyss of inhumane,
fascist rule because truth is hidden under the veil of self serving
and often irrelevant tripe. IMHO"
*******
Here's a
question for the consideration of the reader: Why would Gorden Duff
suddenly come out in support of Ted Gunderson, after years of
promoting anti-Gunderson articles (by Stew Webb) on his website,
'Veterans Today'?
For a
genuine intelligence analyst, the answer is simple. I would say that
he hopes, by endorsing the credibility of Ted Gunderson, to discredit
Stew Webb, formerly a columnist on Veterans Today (who left on bad
terms with Duff), and more significantly, a longtime enemy of Ted
Gunderson.
(Otherwise known as “the enemy of my enemy is my
friend”, a standard tactic of liars, opportunists and con men from
time immemorial. They will team up with anyone, for a self- serving
agenda, then drop their “friends” and “allies” when they are
no longer useful to the agenda.)
I
haven't paid much attention to the most recent brouhaha involving
Stew Webb and Veterans Today. Stew Webb has a long and predictable
history of moving from place to place, person to person, ally to
ally, changing his position on any number of issues, and switching
his loyalties, depending on what is expedient for his own ambitions.
Wherever the wind listeth, there blows Stew Webb...
Stew
Webb, after plastering quotes from Gordon Duff all over his website,
and advertising 'Veterans Today' as if it were the be-all and end-all
of websites for TRUTH on the face of God's green earth, even going so far as to make
noises about “Gordon Duff for President!” (how utterly
ridiculous) changed his tune once again and now promotes a
tabloid-style banner with a very unflattering photo of Duff reading:
"Veterans
Today Editor Gordon Duff aka Bob Foote Liar and Conman"
I mean,
really... Stew Webb has just discovered that Duff is a liar and
con man? Duh.
But
that's the nature of Stew Webb. He and Duff are birds of a feather:
scavengers, that is. They will promote (or denounce) anything and
anyone, as long as their agenda du jour is served. As for the truth?
Forget the truth, it doesn't enter into the equation. Didn't you
know? The “truth” changes periodically to suit the convenience of
its loudest and most aggressive advocates.
(Also
see the testimony of former FBI agent Geral Sosbee on Stew Webb, in
relation to his slander campaign against Barbara Hartwell, later in
this report. Stew Webb concocted outrageous lies and even threatened
to sue Barbara Hartwell, simply because I exposed the truth: that I
refused to participate in his hoaxes, using forged documents and
presenting false information to serve his agenda.)
THE
STRANGE CASE OF TED GUNDERSON
Here,
excerpts from Gordon Duff's article. My comments follow.
The
Strange Case of Ted Gunderson
by
Gordon Duff, Senior Editor
"Fraud as
claimed by some or the greatest whistleblower of our time?
Some people call themselves
whistleblowers. When we look into them, who they are, where they
were, what they really knew, some are total frauds, most are
fabrications and the majority are “stooges” or “informants.”
Ted Gunderson was a senior FBI
official who, during his career, investigated a number of famous
cases. In the process, one of two things happened:
1. Gunderson stumbled on a secret satanic child murdering cult and
included two American presidents, Reagan and Bush (41) or
2. No such things exist and he is
utterly irrational."
I have never met Ted Gunderson. I
have been told repeatedly, Stew Webb in particular, that Gunderson,
who died in 2011, was a total fraud, every word out of his mouth a
lie. Then I began checking.
Gunderson checks out entirely.
Others do not check out at all. Very real sources, close to the
Reagan and Bush families, support Gunderson’s claims. The video
above [See link to article] has been around for some time. I had been
made aware of what was called the Franklin Scandal long ago when
approached by a GOP state chairman on behalf of the president.
Considerable effort was made to
“get to” Ted Gunderson, to discredit him and silence him. John
DeCamp who was an aid to former CIA Director William Colby while in
Vietnam, is similarly subjected to continual attack."
**************
"The greatest whistleblower of
our time"? Lord have mercy! That is quite a claim, especially from
the likes of Gordon Duff.
But how do you tell the difference
between a great whistleblower and a mountebank?
If you are such a smooth operator
(as Ted Gunderson surely was) that you can sell anything, to anyone,
anywhere, using your abundant charm and charisma, brandishing your
flawless credentials, you may appear as a knight in shining armor,
riding up over the brow of the hill, a heroic figure, even a prophet,
warning us all of the evil in our midst.
Has Gordon Duff, who by his own
admission, lies to the public to “stay alive” (not to mention
raking in the bucks, adding to the vast fortune of which he boasts)
ever considered that Ted Gunderson might also be a liar?
If Mr. Duff has done the “checking”
(with his fabulous and limitless access to intelligence sources
worldwide) as he claims, did his research not reveal the fact that
Ted Gunderson was COINTELPRO, in truth the second highest man in the
operation, right under Hoover himself? Does he not know that one
major purpose of COINTELPRO is (as admitted by Ted Gunderson) to
“spread disinformation”?
Oh, but silly me, I forgot that
Duff doesn't care about the truth. The truth be damned! Much more
important is to deceive the large audience of his media empire, as
his life is clearly more valuable than the millions of his fellow
Americans, who are being harmed by the tyranny and massive deception
perpetrated by his intelligence cronies worldwide.
Now, consider this statement from
Mr. Duff:
"Ted Gunderson was a senior FBI
official who, during his career, investigated a number of famous
cases. In the process, one of two things happened:
1.
Gunderson stumbled on a secret satanic child murdering cult and
included two American presidents, Reagan and Bush (41) or
2. No such things exist and he is
utterly irrational."
There is one factual statement
here: “Ted Gunderson was a senior FBI official who, during his
career, investigated a number of famous cases.”
But just because this statement is
factual, does not mean that there are only two possible conclusions,
as presented by Duff. He's trying to make this look as if it were a
multiple choice quiz, with only one 'right' answer. In fact, it is an
obvious logical fallacy.
I happen to know for a fact, due to
my own investigations of many years (both inside government service
and outside) that there are in fact satanic cults who murder
children. And I didn't need Ted Gunderson's help to know that. I only met
Ted in 1997, by which time I already had a large file on these
operations.
And from my knowledge of Ted
Gunderson, he was not irrational. Paranoid, yes. But not irrational.
But here's another theory:
Gunderson knew about the satanic ritual abuse of children. He knew
about the child sex slave trade. And he was instrumental not only in
“exposing” it, but in covering for some of the perpetrators.
Next item: Duff presents his theory
that Gunderson and DeCamp were Targets of a campaign for the purposes
of “silencing” and “discrediting” them:
"Considerable effort was made to
“get to” Ted Gunderson, to discredit him and silence him. John
DeCamp who was an aid to former CIA Director William Colby while in
Vietnam, is similarly subjected to continual attack."
Does Mr. Duff give any examples of
such a campaign? No. Does he name even one person who might be
engaged in these activities? No. In my opinion, Ted Gunderson and
John Decamp need no help from anyone to be discredited. They've done
a fine job of that all by themselves.
Unfortunately, there are many
credulous fools who believe the carefully crafted scenario presented
by Gunderson and DeCamp.
The “Franklin Coverup” was in
fact a double coverup, a coverup of a coverup, one that I exposed in
my reports and on radio a decade ago. John DeCamp threatened to sue
Barbara Hartwell, and began a slander/libel campaign against me in
2005.
In PART TWO I will address the
comments made by readers of 'Veterans Today' in response to Gordon
Duff's article on Ted Gunderson. I will also cover the video on
Gunderson made by Jim How: “Was Ted Gunderson a Disinfo Agent?”,
promoted on 'Educate Yourself' by Ken Adachi.
You'll hear more from former FBI
agent Geral Sosbee, speaking out against Ted Gunderson and Stew Webb,
and in defense of Barbara Hartwell.
Who is the "shadow government spook"? Barbara Hartwell, as accused by Ted Gunderson, or the COINTELPRO Kingpin (Ted -"the Gun" Gunderson) himself?
To be continued...

Ted Gunderson's "warning" against Barbara Hartwell
