My Friend Steve Baker Was Arrested: Thoughts About Limbaugh, Bowie, Trump, DeSantis -- and yes, American Thinker
American Thinker ^ | 2 Mar, 2024 | The Ghost

We are all Steve Baker now, writes a longtime personal friend of Baker's, who, along with Baker, has contributed to American Thinker.

As many of you know by now, The Blaze’s journalist Steve Baker was arrested yesterday by the FBI, put in handcuffs, leg irons, and paraded before a magistrate who read off charges of ... wait for it ... four misdemeanors.

Four FRIGGIN misdemeanors. Charges, not convictions, mind you. Nonetheless: Leg irons. Handcuffs. Hours in a jail cell. The message is clear: you dare go against the government narrative, this could be you.

All that was missing was the bus full of murderers and the out of control train from The Fugitive I was waiting for them to make him walk The Green Mile

He was ordered to show up in a tee shirt, shorts and flip-flops. Baker instead went FULL White Collar God Bless him! I mean seriously, it’s hard for me to write about this story without my left index finger constantly hitting the F key! His defiance with the suit was a victory for all of us.

And as a 35-year friend, I simultaneously shed a tear and cheered internally upon hearing that.

For the record, Baker was only hired by The Blaze months ago, yet has rapidly become the star of the platform due to his groundbreaking January 6-related reporting, and his striking command of the facts and meticulous on air persona. He was featured wall-to-wall on the network today.

Glenn Beck even came out late in the afternoon, unusual for a Friday, to issue a scathing statement on the platform and social media in support of his new star quarterback.

He wore black tie in Baker’s honor. Yes, he did. God Bless you, too, Glenn.

Weighing in on Twitter was Donald Trump Jr...

It looks like the Feds don’t care if they have any public support. When elections are rigged then who needs the pesky citizens.

"He was ordered to show up in a tee shirt, shorts and flip-flops."

Could this be any more blatant? Strictly for the mug shot, right? Did they demand he appear unshaven and slovenly, too?

The TigersEye summary on J6:

The FedMob set it up, agitated the crowd, turned down the President’s offer to authorize the Nat. Guard, hired punks like Ray Epps to instigate going into the Capitol, planted bombs at the RNC and DNC headquarters, misdirected the Capitol Police, opened electronic locks on Capitol doors and more.

If any of you has a better one line summary, I want it.

“It looks like the Feds don’t care if they have any public support. When elections are rigged then who needs the pesky citizens.”

See, we tend to forget who we are. The treatment this pro-insurrectioist got was to show us what happens to anyone who is a threat to Our Democracy.

If he keeps running his mouth off, wanna bet they put him in pretrial confinement in the D.C. jail? Threats to Our Democracy are not going to be tolerated.

[In case anyone missed it, there may be some sarcasm in those paragraphs.]

Unfortunately, there is support for any and every thing the Feds go after the J6'ers with in a pathetically large percentage of Americans.

It’s funny. I started to trademark that in the post. I like it!

They stated it would be easier to be in the orange jumpsuit. He showed up in his shirt and tie… they put the main in leg irons.
He has been posting the J6 footage for more than a year.
The fbi and doj didn’t go after him until he joined the blaze in October of last year. Our America.

+1

The summary could continue with what the FedMob has done since then, in the context of J6, but that could be lengthy. Point of that comment being, this black op is an ongoing program as the article above testifies to.

Slightly updated and improved version:

The FedMob set it up, agitated the crowd, turned down the President’s offer to authorize the Nat. Guard, hired punks like Ray Epps to instigate going into the Capitol, planted bombs at the RNC and DNC headquarters, misdirected the Capitol Police, opened electronic locks on Capitol doors, murdered Ashli Babbit outside the senate chambers and covered it up, conducted bogus partisan hearings on J6 to justify the falsehoods, hid video footage showing a generally peaceful crowd and hiding the instigators, maliciously prosecuted J6ers, and more.
