FBI raids Project Veritas after it obtained Biden daughter’s diary

The FBI used armed force to obtain the documents from James O’Keefe’s organization.

The FBI used armed agents to obtain a diary allegedly belonging to Ashley Biden that had been obtained by right-leaning Project Veritas and other documents.

Politico reported:

The Biden administration’s effort to establish itself as a committed champion of press freedom is facing new doubts because of the Justice Department’s aggressive legal tactics against a conservative provocateur known for his hidden-camera video stings.

A predawn FBI raid last weekend against Project Veritas founder James O’Keefe and similar raids on some of his associates are prompting alarm from some First Amendment advocates, who contend that prosecutors appear to have run roughshod over Justice Department media policies and a federal law protecting journalists.

Even the ACLU came out against the raid, albeit after criticizing Project Veritas.

“Unless the government had good reason to believe that Project Veritas employees were directly involved in the criminal theft of the diary, it should not have subjected them to invasive searches and seizures. We urge the court to appoint a special master to ensure that law enforcement officers review only those materials that were lawfully seized and that are directly relevant to a legitimate criminal investigation,” the ACLU said.

Should James O’Keefe sue the Biden administration? Should Merrick Garland resign over this raid? Let us know below!
