Four men faced life in prison for what amounts to FBI election interference. People wonder why so many of us don't trust the government.
"...the jury instead seemed to believe defense attorneys’ arguments that their clients were entrapped by the FBI. At least a dozen FBI undercover agents and informants, working out of numerous FBI field offices across the eastern half of the country and at the direction of supervising agents, concocted and funded the sting operation. Dan Chappel, the main informant compensated at least $60,000 by the FBI for “bringing people together,” as his FBI handler ordered him, took the stand to explain his role. But his testimony was lackluster and ultimately did not convince the jury the men were guilty."

The key take away for me, here, is that if you intend to organize, keep your circle small. There WILL be informants regardless. Happens every time.
And take the advice of good ol' uncle Charlie:
