The Unnerving Reason FBI Showed Up to This Journalist's Home
Townhall ^ | 11/12/2023 | Sarah Arnold

The FBI has reportedly knocked down the door of a journalist who, in the past, exposed illegal activities along the southern border, including sex trafficking.

This week, Sarah Fields, a journalist with The Publica Now, revealed on social media that FBI agents came to her home on October 17 unannounced. She claimed the agency demanded that she talk with them about her coverage of an alleged Hamas training camp on the US-Mexico border.

In her posts, Fields claims that the FBI was trying to get her to reveal her sources.

(Twitter Post by Sarah Fields) I’ve been debating on whether to share about this or not. But because they showed up to my house unannounced AGAIN today, I decide to go ahead and let you all know. The FBI showed up to my door unannounced on October 17th. I was not home and I won’t share the whole video for the sake of protecting others in my home. They called me later in the day, and wanted to arrange a meeting in private at their local office. 🚩🚩🚩

They wanted to speak to me about certain stories I have reported on (with special interest regarding anything war or border related) and the only conclusion I can come to is that they would like access to my sources. They also told me they were “uncomfortable speaking about these topics on the phone”. 🚩🚩🚩I did not meet with them.

I DO NOT and WILL NOT share sources, especially when they have requested to remain anonymous. Such is the right of a journalist in the United States of America. I understand that the FBI has a few “good guys” spread through out their agency. However, it’s impossible to know who is good and who is corrupt. The FBI is corrupted beyond repair and you will never see me cooperate with them. Right now, they’re acting like a desperate guy who got turned down and has now turned stalker. If the FBI is reading this, kindly stick it. (end of twitter Post)

Fields included several screenshots of calls from the U.S. government in Texas. In recent years, she has covered numerous on-the-ground stories along the U.S. border with Mexico.

(Twitter Post by Sarah Fields) For years, in Matamoros, Mexico, directly across the border from Brownsville, Tx, Hamas had a training center. Once a large factory, the building was used to train young, military age men. Dressed in all black, these men would wait for the river to be low enough to cross over the border and illegally infiltrate the US for further training. Hamas has training camps in Mexico, and has for a long time.

Thousands of jihadists have crossed the border and disappeared into the US. Some given rooms and cell phones (courtesy of your tax dollars). Many have been flown to multiple cities through out the United States including Hartford, Tampa, Atlanta and Houston. The majority that travels into this country illegally are not women and children, they are military age men.

America needs to wake up. Thousands of sleeper fighters are in our backyard and the Biden Administration is not only aware, they’re complicit. The attack on Israel is only the beginning. Get your households in order. (end of twitter post)

After landing in Memphis today, on my way out of the airport there were about six black unmarked SUV's with gubmint tags dropping off, and the people getting out were black, late 40's early 50's men in L.L. Bean clothes with black hardcases with red tags that said "checked rifles". They didn't appreciate eye contact or smirks, which I gave plenty of.

About 15 federales were going somewhere and they were just "special". They weren't top goobers or they would have been at the private GA FBO getting on a DOJ jet. (Hundreds of them)

Does this feel like the United States we loved and grew up in?

if there is a camp, one would think the fbis would go raid said camp

if not there, they would ignore her

that they are asking about it, means the KNOW about it...

The FBI is a leftist political organization with police powers. Prove me wrong.

They dont like others recording them and they only “take notes” themselves.

The FBI knows exactly where each camp is located. If they [the FBI] learn who her sources are, they probably stop living. The general public is not to know about the camps.

I’m out on a limb, but I wonder if the FBI (or CIA) is the actual founder of the camp hoping to ensnare terrorist? Of course, a secure border would be the best way. No other country is putting up with this.

A ring doorbell can be installed inside the home in a vestibule, nicely hidden in a hanging flower arrangement. Just saying.

I am surprised there is a journalist who still knows journalistic ethics.
