Biden, not Putin. The FBI arrested Blaze Media investigative reporter Steve Baker on Friday over his coverage of the Jan. 6, 2021 demonstrations.
As for other journalists expressing outrage and rallying round the cause of a free press, not in post-America. Freedom of the press is “MAGA outrage.”
Do the American people realize how dire things actually are?
The True ‘Threat To Democracy’ Isn’t White Americans, It’s The Democrat Party.
Biden Regime Ratchets Up Its Authoritarianism With Arrest Of Blaze Investigative Reporter
By: Shawn Fleetwood, The Federalist, March 01, 2024
Democrats’ targeting of political opponents entered its next phase Friday, when the FBI arrested Blaze Media investigative reporter Steve Baker over covering the Jan. 6, 2021, demonstrations at the U.S. Capitol.
“This is the most humiliated I’ve ever been in my life,” Baker told independent reporter Breanna Morello following his release.
My arrest “is for things I said. … That’s what they’re after; they’re [trying] to suppress our speech.”
As The Federalist reported, federal authorities informed Baker and his legal team on Tuesday of a signed warrant for his arrest and instructed him to self-surrender for “alleged J6 crimes” in Dallas, Texas, on Friday morning.
Baker has been at the forefront of reporting on the more questionable aspects of the Jan. 6 demonstrations.
While told he was being charged with “non-violent misdemeanors,” federal authorities declined to disclose to Baker or his lawyers what specific crimes underlie the arrest.
According to Blaze News, the feds refused to reveal the charges ahead of Friday’s arrest because “they believe[d] Baker [would] post them on social media.”
The Sixth Amendment to the U.S. Constitution guarantees individuals accused of a crime a right to “be informed of the nature and cause of the accusation.”
After being transported to the courthouse on Friday morning in shackles, Baker was charged on four counts related to reporting on the Jan. 6 demonstrations:
Knowingly entering or remaining in any restricted building or grounds without lawful authority; Disorderly and disruptive conduct in a restricted building or grounds; Disorderly conduct in a capitol building; and Parading, demonstrating, or picketing in a capitol building.
While egregious, Baker’s arrest is sadly unsurprising.
The Marxists running Biden’s Democrat administration have gone to extreme lengths to weaponize the powers of government to target and prosecute their political opponents.
Former President Donald Trump is facing 91 indictments from Democrat prosecutors across four different venues, two of which involve charges from the Biden DOJ.
These efforts coincide with Democrat attempts to kick Trump — Biden’s primary political opponent — off the ballot ahead of the 2024 election.
The Biden regime has also targeted faithful Christians.
Not only have federal authorities infiltrated Catholic churches to surveil Christians attending Latin Mass, they’ve also imprisoned pro-life Christians who peacefully protested outside of an abortion clinic.
Don’t forget the federal government’s censorship-industrial complex.
This heavily funded system is strategically designed to censor and silence dissenting voices online — even if the information these users share is true.
