“Blodgett’s chronicle of his bizarre journey could be a valuable resource for students of American extremism.” – BlueInk Review
Can someone serve the FBI, America’s leading federal agency, for investigating cyberattacks and intrusions while being addicted to the intensity and euphoria of cocaine? Not everyone would be given such an opportunity, but author Todd A. Blodgett could do it concurrently. In his memoir “Republican Crackhead: An Addict’s Life in the FBI and DC’s Hoods, while infiltrating HATERS,” Todd tells a real-life story about addiction, hope, and recovery. It also touches on political violence and American extremism.
Todd A. Blodgett, who was 24 then, was the youngest member of the Reagan-Bush White House staff when he entered the Reagan administration. Later, Todd worked for the FBI, the Republican National Committee, and the first President Bush. He worked as a full-time, paid, professional FBI informant assigned to monitor the HATE movement and its top echelon for nearly three years.
Books about racism, anti-Semites, former bigots, and violent skinheads have been published and turned into movies, but facts about a Republican crackhead have never gathered equal attention. Unfortunately, Nazism didn’t end with Hitler, and violence from organized hatred persists. “Republican Crackhead” explains why such crimes happen and what society must do about them. Todd wrote his book to warn his readers against what he put himself through, hoping to prevent them from becoming haters and drug addicts.
BlueInk Review describes Todd’s book as a memorable anecdote, praising it for its heartfelt and relatable descriptions of addiction and detailed information about his views on extremist politics and extremism in America.
