Baker — who for years has been searching for the truth about Jan. 6, 2021, and believes the U.S. government has been targeting him for it — on Friday was charged with four misdemeanors related to his Jan. 6 coverage at the U.S. Capitol after turning himself in to the FBI in Dallas.
But first he was handcuffed and perp-walked:
The charges are:
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 Parading, demonstrating, or picketing in a capitol building
BlazeTV contributor Jill Savage noted Friday that she exited the courtroom with Baker, who "was able to wear his dress clothes but had shackles on his wrists and ankles. He is expected to be released today. His next hearing is set in DC for March 14th."
Baker learned of the charges for the first time Friday and earlier this week told Blaze News that the powers that be wouldn't tell his attorney about the charges because they believed Baker would post them on social media.
Baker's Dallas attorney, James Lee Bright, added to Blaze News that withholding the nature of the charges against his client was a "really unusual" move.
Bright told Blaze News that he's "disturbed" about what's happening with his client, especially given that Baker has been "in full compliance" all this time. Bright also said the federal government "three-plus years later going after people who were legitimate functioning journalists that day" appears designed to have an "absolute chilling effect."
Baker added that when he asked his other attorney, William Shipley, why the federal government is treating him like this, Shipley replied, "You know why. You've been poking them in the eye for three years." 'This is truly outrageous'
Baker's arrest and charges have been getting a ton of attention — and notable individuals have been weighing in: (videos at link)
He has a legal team of 6 volunteer lawyers, originally the Feds were going to charhe him with racketeering under RICO because he sold his stories about Jan 6th, with photos to international news sources for money ( ordinary journa.istic professional work) out of Philadephia. So far they have not proceeded on RICO but they may, some jumped up radical female AG in Philly.
More lawfare against freedom of speech.We must not be silenced.
Notable development ping as lawfare is now being waged against conservative reporters and their reportage.
We must not be silenced.
There is a media that they cannot control.
Use your outdoor voice.
In Texas?? Okay, it’s Dallas. But when the Feds refused to inform him of the charges against him, the judge should have dismissed the case with prejudice and sanctioned the FBI/DOJ for wasting his time.
No left leaning reporters out of the 60 at the capital building that day have been charged.
Have any of the Pali Insurrectionist protesters been arrested, yet?
Asking for 86 Million deplorables.
America: Neo-Fascist state.
Funny how the Feds are acting just like they stole an election.
I hope Trump will be able to back pedal some of this crap. Its like I expect to hear of J6ers being put on the rack to gain confessions from them!
AND IT'S TIME FOR AMERICAN CITIZENS TO STAND UP!!
I was going to say that this is where we are headed with them rounding up conservatives using lawfare.....but we are already here.
THIS is why I get so p$ssed off at those never Trumpers who play along with the lawfare efforts against him. They are too freaking stupid to understand that if they get away with the lawfare against Trump, we the people are next.
And it’s already happening. We are officially there.
The TigersEye summary on J6:
The FedMob set it up, agitated the crowd, turned down the President’s offer to authorize the Nat. Guard, hired punks like Ray Epps to instigate going into the Capitol, planted bombs at the RNC and DNC headquarters, misdirected the Capitol Police, opened electronic locks on Capitol doors and more.
If any of you has a better one line summary, I want it.
A LOT od Leftist AGs need to be foired. I hope P{DJT has a team already makinga list ofthen. And the Soros elected prostetutors,...need to be removed as well.
THe Governeors need to be empowered to do that.
Urge your Congressman to ask any FBI and/or DOJ witness before them WHY is it necessary to put shackles on normal people who volunteer to turn themselves in, and be paraded before the cameras?
The Rubicon River seems like a distant memory to these Deep State turds.
Add:”murdered Ashki Babbit outside the senate chambers and covered it up”
“Conducted bogus partisan hearings on J6 to justify the falsehoods, hid video footage showing no felonies,and maliciously prosecuted J6ers.”
Your’s is pretty damned good.
Baker did not join The Blaze until 10/23. In fact the FBI and ROJ left him alone until then. It is important to know that fact.
His videos are shocking. Direct evidence that J6 was a globalist operation to silence everyone.
Covid gave them a taste of our blood.. now they are in a frenzy to wipe out every dissenting view.
Did Senator Menendez get that treatment? Of course not.
That was crossed long a go. The thing is, the people have been dumbed down to the point they don’t GAF. In the State of Alabama, the serfs don’t care a whit about something as their lives as long as they have Alabama football, Nick Saban, and Eli Gold. And the people who wish to destroy them have full knowledge of this. And use it to their fullest advantage. The people who wish to destroy us, to name some are Bill Gates, Klaus Schwab, George Soros.
“”Disorderly conduct in a capitol building Parading, demonstrating, or picketing in a capitol building “”
What’s A CAPITOL BUILDING? Is that the best the writer could do?
“”Baker did not join The Blaze until 10/23. In fact the FBI and ROJ left him alone until then. It is important to know that fact.””
So true! What makes sense to we normal humans seems to escape those in charge of running things!
Let’s separate the country into NORMAL and ABBIE NORMAL people..pickled brains suits them.
