FBI Sends in Armored Vehicle with Turret, 2 Vans, 6 FBI Vehicles, 3 Local Police Vehicles to Arrest Young Father Who Attended Jan. 6 Rally
GP ^ | March 12, 2021 | Jim Hoft

Joshua James was arrested this week and is being charged in connection to the violent events of January 6th in Washington D.C.

Joshua James is an Iraq War veteran. He was wounded in a bomb blast in Iraq. And Joshua is being held by the FBI without bail.

Joshua is the breadwinner in his family. He has three young children including a 3-year-old.

....... Snip......

The FBI lured him out of his home in Alabama by pretending to be a customer needing a pressure washing.

Then an Army armored vehicle with a turret on top, 2 FBI vans, 6 FBI vehicles, 3 local police and sheriff’s vehicles pulled up and ransacked their home.

Audrey James, his wife, was forced to sit outside for 8 hours with her 3-year-old while the FBI searched their home and broke a light fixture.

Joshua James is a war hero, a veteran, a Godly man, a provider, and a business owner. Joshua James DID NOT commit any violent crime. He attended the January 6th speech by President Trump at the Ellipse along with a million other Americans. He volunteered to work security with other members of the Oath Keepers.

The FBI is holding him until trial because he was seen speaking with two other members of the Oath Keepers that day.

“And yet the protesters set a Federal Courthouse on fire the other night. Met with silence. “

It appears the Banana Republic US Government is more scared of ex-military then Antifa.

For those who insist on being pedantic, I guess I should have mentioned that undercover operations and detective work were most emphatically NOT the focus of my statement. I was referring to the "Officers Jackboots" that wear their badge and gun like a bludgeon, exercising their "Authoritah" against their fellow citizens, enjoying their perceived "power".

Guys like THIS Sergeant

I was referring to and dealing with the lack of trust in the UNIFORMED members of the constabulary. That someone intentionally picked out a minor, semantic flaw shows me which side of the police/citizen line THE POLICE drew they are on.

Enjoy the shackles. I hope that dehumanizing mask fits well, too.

Yep and if any posters here said they were going to DC they could be next.

Hyperbole. The worst that has happened to people who merely "attended" is being "cancelled". No one is going to be arrested for attending the rally. People are being arrested for going INSIDE the Capitol Bldg to disrupt a joint session of congress, or assaulting police outside. Not that some on the left don't WANT you jailed for attending, but we are far from that point.

Now as far as people posting here about firing squads, hanging, and otherwise executing everyone they disagree with, that's another subject. And no, there is no anonymity. In fact, social media posts are being used against most of the people arrested as proof of seditious intent.

Prediction. Four years from today, Oath Keepers are going to be a thing of the past. Their network will have been completely disrupted and smashed and most of their leaders that had any role in 6 January will be imprisoned or at least severely fined, and denied voting rights as well as weapons possession rights per felony records. It’s a done deal.

Fascinating what kind of Mittflies these kinds of posts attract.

"conservatism" that licks the jackboots of state security gunthugs who show up at a peasant's house with armored vehicles, spending taxpayer money like drunks at a t*tty bar...

We see you.

The Oath Keepers being rounded up could be our modern-day Sons of Liberty, when people look back on history in the future.

The way the FBI is rounding up the group that conducted the Stack in DC proves the US has become a tyranny government. The Sons of Liberty would conduct similar action/protest to reveal the evil nature of the British Government before the American Revolution.

Is the current United States Government an evil government like the British Government in the colonial days. The British fear the citizens of the colonies so they try to enact Gun Control. This year the American government fear the citizens and are now attempting to past extreme gun control laws.

Are the American Citizens, many who have served their country being rounded up are our Modern Day Sons of Liberty?

Sons of Liberty

The CIA has retained former Stasi members as consultants, so I wouldn’t be surprised if the FBI has a similar arrangement.

They really love to over sensationalize at the Goofball Pudknocker:

“Then an Army armored vehicle with a turret on top”🙄

Didn’t know that general wesley clark was in charge of this raid too. Where’s the Bradley IFV’s? Where’s the M728 CEV?

FYI it’s a Lenco Bearcat that was used.

Here is our testimony from Audrey James.

Joshua, was arrested this week and is being charged in connection to the events of January 6th in D.C.

Bail WAS recommended by the probation office & we were told prosecution would not argue against bail. But, somehow at the last minute prosecution decided to argue against it. My husband was in D.C. that day providing security detail for speakers of the rally that morning. FBI said under oath they do not believe my husband was part of any violence and they have NO proof that he was involved in violence. The main topic of their testimony was the Oath Keepers logo on his hat, the organization who asked him to provide security to the speakers that day. They kept referencing two other individuals who had the same logos on their clothing that day and their aggressive behavior. The public defender asked “Was Mr. James seen with these people exhibiting aggressive behavior?” FBI Response “No he was not.” Public Defender “Well then let’s talk about Mr. James actions instead.”

They said they have cell phone data that places Joshua pinging off a tower that provides service in the area that includes the Capitol. (That doesn’t prove anything other than he was in the radius of that tower which is about a 6 mile range).

Here is the judges reasons for denying bail: While Joshua doesn’t have a criminal background and has strong ties to the community and is not believed to be a flight risk and may not have been violent that day, he continued to have communication with members of Oath Keeps after the 6th which “proves” he has no remorse for the events of that day. And due to the fact he has PTSD from being blown up in Iraq serving his country and doesn’t take medication for his ptsd and owns fire arms, they feel that’s a volatile combination and see no reasonable scenario for granting bail.

We said we would get rid of any weapons and even agree to a medical evaluation to prove he doesn’t need medication. Are those not reasonable scenarios? Especially for a combat veteran, Purple Heart recipient, small business owner who is the sole provider for his wife and 3 kids, who has strong ties to the community and isn’t thought to be a flight risk? He should be able to be home protecting his family while helping prepare for his legal battles. He is unable to work from jail and we have lost over half our income if he can’t work.

This guy didn’t go inside the Capitol or assault police.

If millions of illegals can cross our Southern border, how hard would it be for thousands of surplus RPG-7s and Cornets to cross?

The “crimes” were freedom of speech, peaceable assembly and petitioning the Government for a redress of grievances.

These are the things tyrants fear most.
