My Third Novel's Conclusion, My Heartbreak

My heart begins to break when I think about completing this particular book -- because this narrative has sustained me like no other story I've known. It's both more personal and more universal than my other works. But beyond memory and archetype, it's a cri-de-coeur about needing to become the person one is destined to be. And in the writing, I have met my own life's work, my own fated journey -- having the sense all the while that the pages are suffused with a resonance, an energy, an electrified field that defies explanation. Writers hope and pray to be overtaken by a work in this way -- to be conscripted into passionate service of a profound story. To experience it even once in a lifetime seems a great privilege. I still have several months before this novel is complete, and this constitutes my reprieve. Because I'm not ready for the beauty to end.

Wolves and Their Brothers: Russian-affiliated Organized Crime as a Fraternal Order to the Far Right Within the United States

My stalker has claimed that the FBI has been rather thoroughly "caught" in their predations toward my husband and myself as unjustified "targets of interest" about whom the agency has repeatedly lied in extensively falsified law enforcement reporting for anti-democratic objectives.

As a result, he claims, the FBI has been asked to step back from its aggressions toward my family. (I must express a heartfelt thank you to all those who have directed the FBI to cease and desist in its predations toward us.)

It is disconcerting, then,  to hear from my stalker that Russian-affiliated organized crime has, according to him, stepped forward at the agency's request to fill the gap.

Allegedly, the specific contractors hired to attempt kidnappings or home break-ins or staged car accidents or arson are the same whether they are drawing pay from the FBI or Russian-affiliated organized crime.  The same men don their black clothing and head out into the night, my stalker alleges, with no interruption in their employment.  It's seamless, he asserts -- this hand-off of oversight from the FBI to the American division of "the Wolves," a Russian criminal gang with ongoing ties to Russian leadership.

Unfortunately, "the Wolves" are known for their viciousness and brutality in offering the public "protection" from threatened harms for a hefty fee, whether in Moscow or San Francisco.

So, the assertion that the FBI and the "Wolves" consider themselves "fraternal" organizations whose objectives are aligned is distressing to say the least.

I have wondered for a long time why the talking points of the far right and Vladimir Putin are close echoes of one another:

According to Professor Thomas Rid of Johns Hopkins University, who studies Russian disinformation, "People are asking if the far right in the U.S. is influencing Russian or if Russia is influencing the far right, but the truth is they are influencing each other. They are pushing the same narratives."

The ways in which Russia and the far right are echoing one another's criticisms of the United States leads me to wonder about the role of Russia in the origins of the FBI's engagement in falsified law enforcement reporting for anti-democratic objectives.

Separate and apart from the FBI's apparent bid for autocracy in its violations of the civil liberties and human rights of law-abiding American citizens through its "target of interest" program, is it true that Russian influences have played any role whatsoever in the FBI's engagement with these falsifications?

Specifically, given that Democrats and journalists are alleged to be over-represented within the FBI's "target of interest" program, and given that Russia is known to have attempted to influence American elections through online engagement with far-right social media groups, should the American public sound the alarm?

Have far-right members of the FBI been compromised by those with Russian interests?

Has this manifested through Russian-style kompromat?  Through bribes?  Through threats?

Does the FBI maintain a monetary relationship to "the Wolves" by paying informants like my stalker and in return accepting pay-offs from the human trafficking "proceeds" he wields as a ranking member of Russian-affiliated organized crime?

What does it signify that my stalker, who is a leading member of Russian-affiliated organized crime within the United States, has been able to co-opt the assistance of segments of the FBI in his predatory activities toward my family?  Who is the de facto leader of this agency?  A Russian-affiliated crime boss?  Is Vladimir Putin effectively influencing segments of the national security apparatus without the knowledge or consent of our elected officials or the American people?

I find it interesting that the Kremlin has evidently long engaged in false accusations of its political opponents of crimes against the vulnerable, and pedophilia chief among them.  Take a look at Russia's accusations against historian Yuri Dmitriev after he found mass graves from Stalin's era.  

https://www.nytimes.com/2020/04/27/world/europe/russia-historian-stalin-mass-graves.html?action=click&module=RelatedLinks&pgtype=Article

To quote from the article, "Mr. Dmitriev is now in jail, awaiting trial on what his family, friends and supporters dismiss as blatantly fabricated charges of pedophilia, an accusation that has frequently been used to discredit and silence voices the Russian authorities do not like."

Is it a coincidence that the far right's QAnon conspiracy theory accuses Democrats and journalists of the same species of crimes?

What would it say about Russian infiltration of far-right segments of the FBI if falsified accusations against law-abiding Democrats and journalists were being knowingly created and aggregated by the FBI and its affiliates?

Is the "insider threat" represented by far-right segments of the FBI actually being influenced by those with economic and social ties to Russia?

When Christopher Wray tells the U.S. Congress to "pivot away" from concerns about Russia several short months before Russia's invasion of Ukraine, might members of Congress feel they were intentionally misled?

How can the FBI's affiliations with Russian best be illuminated?

All of these questions leap to mind when my stalker alleges that Russian-affiliated organized crime is now, at the express request of the FBI, overseeing the contractors "focused" on my family.

Perhaps, rather than directing further aggression toward us as law-abiding American citizens, the FBI can simply admit that its far-right segments have gone rogue, giving the American public the opportunity to rescue the democracy these wayward law enforcement officers have so perilously undermined.

Wouldn't that be the lawful thing to do with the Wolves at our door?

***********************************************************************************

For clarity, I need to state that that there are many wonderful men and women who work within the auspices of the FBI -- true patriots who support the Constitution and view their obligations to our nation with the utmost seriousness.  These good men and women have helped me in my quest for the truth of the FBI's engagement in falsified law enforcement reporting for anti-democratic objectives.  To them, I extend my deep and abiding appreciation.
