Project Veritas founder James O’Keefe released video footage from last November, showing armed FBI agents raiding and ransacking an employee’s home. The Feds raided two of O’Keefe’s employees’ homes on November 4, on the orders of federal prosecutors from the U.S. Attorney’s Office for the Southern District of New York. They raided O’Keefe’s apartment in Mamaroneck, N.Y., a couple of days later in connection with Ashley Biden’s allegedly stolen diary.
O’Keefe contends that he and his journalists were targeted because of their investigative journalism.
The footage begins with the FBI banging loudly on the door, and with the startled journalist responding shakily, “I’m sorry, what is this regarding?”
“This is a search warrant, just open up!” the agent barked. After the journalist opened the door, the agent hollered: “Let me see your hands, let me see your hands!”
As the Feds filed into the home, the lead agent told the journalist that another agent would have to sit with him while the team searched his home “for our safety and for yours.” He said the journalist did not have to speak to the agent, and that he wasn’t being detained.
“We just want to see you calm, and then … are you okay with that?” the agent said. He told the journalist that another team of FBI agents was on the way.

The Deep State and their hired guns, the FIB, do not fear that there will be any consequences for their actions. Imagine the outcry if this were done against leftists.
Obammie’s FBI boys.
There is a video of James speaking about the FBI in his house asking if he wants to call anyone. They point to his phone and ask if he wants to use it, he says yes and does. The second he is done with his call they snatch it out of his hand so now his phone is unlocked. Sneaky SOB’s.
The FBI operates for the protection of the Deep State or Permanent State, not the American people. Rights don’t matter and laws don’t matter, except to be exploited to crush any opposition to the Deep State.
I am on the side of Project Veritas and agains the FBI. The FBI is wrong and FBI agents need to stand up to the illegal orders they are getting from their crime boss.

Reminds me of a scene from Sons of Anarchy where the corrupt FBI agent tosses a gun at Gemma knowing she’ll instinctively catch it; thereby putting her fingerprints on it so the corrupt FBI agent can frame her.
P4L
America’s KGB
Yup, pure criminals.
The FBI is a criminal enterprise. The next good president we ever get should disband it and bar all employees from government employment for life.
And Salma Hayek should start stalking me
Democrat Gestapo.
“We’re just following orders”....
Time to disband the nazi intel agencies, they dontvwork for us anymore.
I’m concerned that a judge actually issued a warrant for this. Our justice system is turning into Venezuela 2.0.
How NAZI of them.
Who cares we gotta war in Ukraine to fight! Saddle up, ‘Murica!
Or is it Eastasia?
” Imagine the outcry if this were done against leftists.”
Eventually it will be done to leftists as they wake up and start reporting on what is really happening.
