Full Title

FBI Raid Thomas Paine’s House, Point Guns At His Young Children; How an Award-Winning Reporter Became Thomas Paine

Man it is times like this that excerpts suck. But this is maxed out at 300 exactly and so much is missing. Almost everything is missing.

Read the whole story. If you like him or not. It reads like a great spy novel. It won't bore the normal person.

Thanks for posting this. I received it in an email today and was hoping someone would post it. It was very disturbing. His book should be interesting, and I hope he has bodyguards. Wouldn’t want him to be Breitbarted.

The FBI’s actions are against all Common Sense.

I read the article, and waded through all the ads to do so. It sounds like Paine was into working with the FBI to ruin other’s lives, and he was somehow compromised. Then the FBI turned on him, and it was his turn in the barrel. The story ends with a form of Go Fund Me for financial support.

Any heartfelt comment I make would only lead to me being targeted by such people. (again)

I don't believe much of this. This clown isn't just a tool, he's the whole utility belt. His presentation of himself as some kind of antihero...And the way he refers to journalism as if it's some kind of deadly serious underworld stuff...He says he decided to go back into journalism the same way a movie hitman would talk about doing one last job.

"I had no intention of killing anybody...But I could. Easily." Mmmhm. Sure you could buddy.

You (FBI) didn’t kill me, you made me stronger.

YET, Mr. Paine. If they were willing to do all of this stuff to you, and you really have any goods on them, you might want to make it a point to stay in public view at all times, even when sleeping.

And he gives out enough demographic information to be easily identified by Antifa or other leftist goons, if I'm reading this right.

If his information is s-o-o-o important, why didn't he reveal it in this article
rather than using the article to tease his upcoming book?
