Moles Wanted:

In preparation for the Republican National Convention, the FBI is soliciting informants to keep tabs on local protest groups.
...
What [the FBI was] looking for, Carroll says, was an informant—someone to show up at “vegan potlucks” throughout the Twin Cities and rub shoulders with RNC protestors, schmoozing his way into their inner circles, then reporting back to the FBI’s Joint Terrorism Task Force, a partnership between multiple federal agencies and state and local law enforcement. The effort’s primary mission, according to the Minneapolis division’s website, is to “investigate terrorist acts carried out by groups or organizations which fall within the definition of terrorist groups as set forth in the current United States Attorney General Guidelines.”

Yup... you read that correctly.

The FBI is trying to find informants to gather evidence at "vegan potlucks."

Wonder if they will invade our church? Though typically not all of the food is vegan, so we may be okay.
