What if the most dangerous job in law enforcement isn't what you think? Daniel Torres reveals how one FBI agent spent over four years living inside America's most violent hate groups, including the KKK itself. This isn't Hollywood spy work - it's psychological warfare that nearly destroyed the man doing it. 🎯 What You'll Discover: • How Agent Scott Payne convinced KKK leaders he was one of them while recording their plans • The 90-day psychological evaluations that kept undercover agents from losing themselves completely • Why the FBI says there are 900+ active hate groups in America right now (and how they track them) • The three specific attacks Payne's intelligence stopped, including planned bombings and mass shootings 👤 Perfect for: anyone who's wondered how law enforcement really fights domestic terrorism from the inside. You'll hear actual case details that show just how close these groups came to carrying out their violence, and why this type of undercover work pushes agents to their breaking point.
