Report: FBI Plans to Arrest Blaze Media Reporter Without Telling Him What Charges He’s Facing (UPDATE: he was arrested)

The FBI is expected to arrest a Blaze Media reporter on Friday for what appears to be his coverage of demonstrations at the U.S. Capitol on Jan. 6, 2021, without informing him of what charges he’s facing.

On Tuesday, investigative reporter Steve Baker revealed that following months of delay, federal authorities informed his legal team there is a signed warrant for his arrest and that he is to self-surrender for “alleged J6 crimes” in Dallas, Texas, on Friday morning. Baker has been at the forefront of reporting on the more questionable aspects of the Jan. 6 riot at the U.S. Capitol.

According to Baker, he is to turn himself over to the FBI at 7 a.m. on Friday, at which point federal officials will “transport [him] to the Dallas courthouse, where [he] can meet [his] attorney at 9:30 am.” An unnamed federal prosecutor reportedly told Baker’s attorneys that he is to wear “shorts and sandals” during his surrender, representing an effort by the FBI and Department of Justice (DOJ) to give Baker “a dose of the personal humiliation treatment.”

A hearing before a federal magistrate is purportedly set to take place at 10 a.m. Baker was initially informed of the DOJ’s intention to charge him over his J6 reporting in December but was told by the FBI his self-surrender date would be “postponed until after Christmas,” according to Blaze News.

While the feds reportedly claimed they have no intention of detaining Baker and the charges against him are “non-violent misdemeanors,” the Blaze Media reporter nor his attorneys have been informed what specific counts he’s facing, signaling a potential violation of the Sixth Amendment, which guarantees individuals accused of a crime a right to “be informed of the nature and cause of the accusation.” Blaze News reported that “the powers that be won’t tell [Baker’s] attorney about the charges because they believe Baker will post them on social media.”

FBI Informant’s Flawed Rap Won’t Help Hunter Biden in Impeachment Probe of Family Business

Democrats have been slavering over the indictment of Alexander Smirnov, the trusted FBI paid informant of 13 years standing who they have branded a Russian spy before he even goes to trial.

Hunter Biden used Smirnov as a crutch in his opening statement to the impeachment committee Wednesday, claiming “Smirnov… has made you dupes in carrying out a Russian disinformation campaign waged against my father.”

There’s barely a Democrat alive who doesn’t invoke Russia when the heat comes on. . .

Rep. Eric Swalwell’s tweet this week was among his most coherent: “Trump is Putin. Putin is Trump. Beating Trump this fall mean beating Putin.” . . .

Rep. Jamie Raskin rushed out of Hunter’ deposition hearing room after only an hour to cry “Smirnov,” who is so irrelevant he wasn’t even a witness to the impeachment inquiry since nobody knew who he was.

‘Extremely Alarming’ Election Threats Trigger Warning From FBI

An FBI official warned that state election systems are being targeted as the 2024 election approaches, describing them as “extremely alarming.”

“The threat environment, unfortunately, is very high,” said Tim Langan, executive assistant director for the Criminal, Cyber, Response, and Services Branch of the FBI during a Washington conference with secretaries of state, according to Stateline. “It is extremely alarming.”
Officials said that voter databases could be hacked via phishing or ransomware attacks. They also warned about the rising use of artificial intelligence (AI) that could be used to potentially trick voters, according to the report.

Eric Goldstein, the executive assistant director for cybersecurity at the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA), told the news outlet that there have been significant advancements that could allow China, North Korea, and Russia to target election systems. . .

Neither official provided any concrete examples in the report. But during the event, Kentucky Republican Secretary of State Michael Adams said last month that a bomb threat was called into the state capitol in Frankfort, saying that explosives would “make sure you all end up dead.” No bombs were found, and eight other state capitols received threats.

FBI Warns of Potential Alliance Between MS-13 and Venezuelan Gang Amid Biden’s Border Crisis (VIDEO)

In a concerning development, the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) has expressed fears about a potential collaboration between El Salvador’s notorious MS-13 gang and Venezuela’s Tren de Aragua, posing a serious threat to the safety of New Yorkers. This alliance is believed to be fueled by the southern border and exploited by criminal elements taking advantage of President Joe Biden’s border policies.

Reports suggest that members of Tren de Aragua have capitalized on the lax border controls, resulting in a significant increase in their presence in New York City, particularly in the Bronx. The Venezuelan gang’s growth has been linked to the policies facilitating the release of thousands of illegal aliens into American cities every day.

Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro’s lenient approach towards top leaders of Tren de Aragua, allowing them VIP-style treatment and even escape from prison, has added to law enforcement’s concerns. Hector Guerrero, the gang’s leader, is one such escapee believed to have entered the U.S. illegally.

The FBI is now apprehensive about the possibility of Tren de Aragua forming an alliance with the notorious MS-13 gang from El Salvador. This collaboration could lead to a surge in violent attacks, robbery sprees, and other criminal activities in the five boroughs of New York City.

Recent incidents, including the arrest of Franco Alexander Peraza Navas, a 30-year-old illegal alien from Venezuela, have highlighted the gang’s involvement in robberies, shoplifting, and a sophisticated scheme targeting New Yorkers’ cell phones to hack their bank accounts. Navas, considered a ringleader, was reportedly involved in criminal operations across multiple states.

The NYPD’s efforts to curb this criminal activity resulted in the arrest of seven Venezuelan illegal aliens for a cellphone robbery scheme and a 15-year-old illegal alien for shoplifting and shooting a female tourist in Times Square. Moreover, ongoing investigations involve tracking down more Venezuelan illegal aliens connected to an attack on officers in Manhattan.

Chinese-Born Engineer Arrested for Theft Involving Missile Sensor Technology

FBI agents in California arrested a suspected technology spy for China this week, charging him with stealing some 3,600 files from a defense contractor that includes sensitive information on advanced sensors used to detect missile launches.

Gong Chenguang, 57, of San Jose, was charged by federal prosecutors in Los Angeles with being part of China’s “talents” program, a systematic Beijing effort to obtain U.S. technology by recruiting American-based scientists and technical experts with access to advanced know-how.

An FBI affidavit used to seek an arrest warrant identifies Mr. Gong as a naturalized citizen employed by a Malibu defense contractor in January 2023.

The technology involved is worth “hundreds of millions of dollars” and, if provided to a foreign government, would “compromise U.S. national security,” the affidavit states. A spokeswoman identified the company as HRL Laboratories.

According to the affidavit, the company “develops sophisticated infrared sensor technology intended for use in various space-based and military missions, including in systems designed to detect nuclear missile launches and track ballistic and hypersonic missiles.” (Read more from “Chinese-Born Engineer Arrested for Theft Involving Missile Sensor Technology” HERE)

FBI Director Chris Wray Reveals China’s Massive Cyber Threat to U.S. Infrastructure

In a dire warning to lawmakers, FBI Director Christopher Wray disclosed the alarming scale of China’s hacking program, cautioning that the communist nation is gearing up to unleash significant cyberattacks on critical infrastructure in the United States. Speaking before the House Select Committee on the Chinese Communist Party in a hearing titled “The Chinese Communist Party Cyber Threat to the American Homeland and National Security,” Wray highlighted the urgent need for public attention to the escalating cyber threat posed by China.

Wray emphasized that the People’s Republic of China (PRC) has been targeting vital elements of American infrastructure, including water treatment plants, the electrical grid, oil and natural gas pipelines, and transportation systems. He stressed that the risk posed by these cyberattacks demands immediate attention, as China’s hackers strategically position themselves to potentially cause real-world harm to American citizens and communities.

China’s hacking program was described by Wray as surpassing the combined efforts of all other major nations, highlighting the sheer magnitude of the cyber threat. He stated, “If each one of the FBI’s cyber agents and intelligence analysts focused exclusively on the China threat, China’s hackers would still outnumber FBI cyber personnel by at least 50 to 1.”

Wray directly implicated the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) in orchestrating a multifaceted assault on the national and economic security of the United States. He underscored the CCP’s relentless cyber onslaught, extending beyond mere pre-positioning for future conflicts. Wray pointed out that China actively engages in wholesale theft of American innovation and personal and corporate data on a daily basis.

The FBI director warned that China’s cyber threat is exacerbated by integrating cyber activities into a comprehensive, whole-of-government campaign against the U.S. He revealed China’s recruitment of human sources to target American businesses, using insiders to steal innovation and data while simultaneously participating in corporate deception to conceal Beijing’s involvement in various transactions, joint ventures, and investments.

Wray highlighted the CCP’s disturbing actions to undermine the freedoms of U.S. citizens by employing campaigns aimed at silencing, coercing, and threatening residents. To counter China’s relentless cyber attacks, the FBI has deployed experts specializing in cyber, counterintelligence, criminal, and weapons of mass destruction.

As lawmakers discuss budgets that will determine available resources in the future, Wray stressed the importance of preparing for the challenges that lie ahead, particularly in 2027—a year marked by the CCP as significant.

Former FBI Officials Sound Alarm Over Biden’s Border Crisis: “The Country Has Been Invaded”

A group of ten retired FBI directors and counter-intelligence experts has issued a warning to Congress, asserting that the ongoing border crisis under President Joe Biden poses a “new and imminent danger” to the United States. In a letter addressed to congressional leaders, the former FBI officials expressed deep concern about the current threat, emphasizing its severity and characterizing it as one of the most pernicious challenges ever faced by the nation.

The letter begins with a sobering statement, “As former senior executives of the Federal Bureau of Investigation with deep experience combating dangers to the nation, we write to express our concern about a current, specific threat that may be one of the most pernicious ever to menace the United States.”

The former FBI officials emphasized that the U.S. is currently experiencing an invasion of military-aged men from various parts of the world. These individuals are entering the country by foot, exploiting what has been portrayed globally as a largely unprotected border, according to the letter.

The letter notes a shocking estimate of ‘gotaways’ – individuals who have entered the U.S. without detection, contributing to the overall security concerns. Since President Biden assumed office, there have been over 1.7 million known gotaways, with an additional unknown number of undocumented immigrants slipping into the country unnoticed.

The experts believe the surge of individuals is not accidental and may be part of an accelerated and strategic penetration – a soft invasion designed to gain internal access to the country. They speculate that these individuals could potentially be operators aiming to inflict catastrophic damage if and when deemed necessary by enemies of the United States.

Of significant concern is the revelation that a “startling number” of illegal aliens are on the terrorist watchlist or hail from countries designated as State Sponsors of Terrorism. These individuals are not only from terror-linked regions but also from countries like China and Russia.

The retired FBI officials call for coordinated efforts from the FBI, Department of Homeland Security, and the Intelligence Community to secure the borders, identify those already in the country illegally, and remove them promptly. They emphasize that until this invasion is halted, the United States remains extraordinarily less safe and secure. The officials underline that it would be a “shameful travesty” if a preventable attack were to occur, asserting that the government would have failed grievously in such a scenario.

Report: FBI Agent ‘Scrubbed and Diluted’ Political Bias in Investigations

An FBI official who was integral to what appears to have been a plan to protect Hunter Biden from investigation or prosecution is accused of having “scrubbed and diluted” political bias in his work.

A new report from Fox News also reveals that the same official violated the federal Hatch Act in political posts on social media.

The report said this was the same official who earlier was accused by whistleblowers of showing a “pattern of active public partisanship,” which probably affected investigations into President Donald Trump and Hunter Biden.

It was Sen. Chuck Grassley, R-Iowa, who referred Timothy Thibault for investigation. . .

The investigation was sought after whistleblowers contacted Grassley charging Thibault with being instrumental in opening an investigation into the Trump campaign, which came about partly because of information sourced from a “left-aligned” group, the report said.

DEI Hires Pushed Onto the FBI Are Putting the Country’s Safety at Risk for the Sake of Being ‘Woke’

An alarming deterioration in recruitment standards for the FBI has been exposed in a report delivered to the House Judiciary Committee by an alliance of retired and active-duty agents and analysts.

Diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI) requirements pushed by FBI Director Chris Wray have degraded recruitment standards in all areas including “physical fitness, illicit drug use, financial irregularities, mental health, full-time work experience and integrity,” and pose a threat to the FBI’s ability to protect America from harm, say the authors.

The report cites cases of new agents who are so fat and unfit, they can’t even pass the new relaxed standards for fitness; who are illiterate and need remedial English lessons; who don’t want to work weekends or after hours; have serious disabilities or mental-health issues, and “create drama.”

The FBI is no longer recruiting the “best and brightest” to be special agents, but selecting candidates based on “race, gender and/or sexual orientation.”

The alliance of anonymous FBI reformers includes senior former executives and agents from the counterintelligence and counterterrorism branches who warn that today’s FBI “lacks the fortitude and skills warranted to defeat [existential] threats . . .

FBI Arrests Radical Transgender Person Suspect over Threats to ‘Kill Transphobes’

The FBI has arrested a trans person for allegedly posting social media threats against “transphobes” and other people who oppose the transgender agenda.

FBI agents arrested male-born transgender person, Elizabeth Ballesteros West, in Oregon last week after reports of online threats that included photos of guns, according to Newsweek.

According to the Gazette, West’s bio on social media read that he is a “A Nazi dominatrix from Hell, who is tired of the blackening of America and Europe and ready to stand up to the Black orcs and the Jewish Wizard.”

Some of the threats were posted to a Facebook group called the “Trans Woman Support Group,” one post of which featured an image of several guns and a complaint that West was being misgendered by “trans phobic” detractors.

The 56-year-old West, who reportedly has a history of bipolar disorder, allegedly admitted to being “at the end of my rope” and may be fired from his job due to his frustration over those who oppose the trans agenda, the Oregonian reported.
