James OKeefe and Project Veritas have a whistleblower inside the FBI. They’ve released body cam footage of the FBI raid on a PV journalist last November looking for Ashley Biden’s diary. It’s interesting- but even more interesting is that an insider leaked it. More’s coming.

The issue is a journalist First Amendment rights and the right to be free from law enforcement intimidation when the powers that be don’t light what you’re publishing.
The raid mirrored tactics used against Roger Stone and Paul Manafort . We’re not talking about simple execution of AA simple search warrant. It’s the full force of the state, wearing body armor and acting like a swat assault team, brought down on a journalist who had the gall to
get in the chain of custody of a diary of the daughter of a sitting president. From their behavior one would think the FBI agents believed the diary was booby trapped with a bomb.
Here’s an ex FBI agent who’s not pleased with these authoritarian tactics:

People have speculated that the search warrants for PV’s journalist and O’Keefe were really a pretext to look for something else, because PV didn’t publish the diary and turned it over to state LE. There’s possible evidence of that in that immediately after the raids, the NYT
came into the possession of O’Keefe’s private communications with PV’s lawyer - emails that would have been found on electronic devices taken during the raid. Also, there are DOJ and FBI whistleblowers that DOJ would like to know about. Whether they wanted that information …
enough to mislead a court in an application for a search warrant is another matter.
