Sometime in the late fall/early winter of 1962, a document began
circulating among members of the Communist Party USA based in the
Chicago area, titled "Whither the Party of Lenin." It was signed
"The Ad Hoc Committee for Scientific Socialist Line." This was not
the work of factionally inclined CP comrades, but rather something
springing from the counter-intelligence imagination of the FBI. A
Threat of the First Magnitude tells the story of the FBI's fake
Maoist organization and the informants they used to penetrate the
highest levels of the Communist Party USA, the Black Panther Party,
the Revolutionary Union and other groups labelled threats to the
internal security of the United States in the 1960s and 1970s. As
once again the FBI is thrust into the spotlight of US politics, A
Threat of a First Magnitude offers a view of the historic
inner-workings of the Bureau's counterintelligence operations -
from generating "fake news" and the utilization of "sensitive
intelligence methods" to the handling of "reliable sources" - that
matches or exceeds the sophistication of any contenders.
