CIA notes reveal domestic spying on Socialist Workers party
CIA documents disclosed in a lawsuit show spies infiltrated and monitored domestic political activity of the Socialist Workers party and its youth wing starting as early as 1950. The files indicate CIA surveillance extended into the 1960s, with new details from the agency’s security office. The Political Rights Defense Fund released the material under a court order, while the FBI faces separate questions over pre-1966 burglaries tied to security cases.
