Did they just bust in while he was on air? Are they there to 'monitor' what he says? Are they confescating equipment? How did you come by this info? Was he broadcasting and they took him away?

He's back on air now... its regarding a Federal subpoena related to comments on his website from a listener.

I was eating lunch, listening to the broadcast on my cellphone... internet connection kept crapping out on me - I think there was some RF interferance from a nearby cashiers terminal or something.

I know I know ... sorry for dropping that and not following up but that was all I knew at that time.

He simply said on air that the FBI and APD were there to talk to him. He told his techs to go to some rants of his. Then it was just rebroadcasts of 100% AJ rants - I mean SERIOUS crazed rants. :lol:

He's back on now saying that there was a commenter on his infowars sites a while ago ... I remember him talking about this before ... where some idiot posted the home address and phone number of a police officer and the same poster or another one said "kill him" or some such.

So AJ has been subpoena'd [sic?] and has to appear in Virginia (?) federal court or some such.

What's really weird is Alex is saying the FBI agent was asking him WHY they deleted the comments from the website as soon as they saw them. Alex is reporting that the agent(s) were encouraging him to REPOST the comments. Weird...

I would think the feds would be there to ensure Alex Jones keeps going with the "global warming is a hoax" and "Obama was born in Kenya" stuff? :)

Im telling you guys, I wouldnt be surprised if the PTB provocatuer several "conspiracy theorist unstable listeners of Alex Jones" to go on shooting sprees or terror plots. (which would be ironic, as any listener of AJ's would know he considers most of these actions to play into the hands of the 'gun grabbing' elite)

Source: White House Has FBI Task Force Investigating Infowars
Obama's war on the free press accelerates
by Paul Joseph Watson | September 25, 2015


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KZIz8-KAnZc

The Obama White House has directed an FBI task force to put Alex Jones and the Infowars operation under surveillance in anticipation of a potential raid, a source told Jones yesterday.

Around a year ago, Jones was first contacted by a source within the FBI who informed him that Infowars was being kept under close surveillance by the federal government.

Another well placed source contacted Jones yesterday to tell him that an FBI task force in Washington DC was now specifically dedicated to targeting Jones and the Infowars operation and was preparing to launch a search and seizure raid once a pretext could be contrived.

Meetings have already taken place where FBI agents have openly expressed their confidence that they will find something with which to go after Jones – even if it means framing the radio host – the source said.

“They’re very confident that they can raid this facility and make something up,” said Jones. “Real people in the FBI continue to contact me to say this is coming, this is being done, be ready.”

In light of the Lois Lerner scandal, where conservative groups were deliberately targeted by the IRS, the feds are keen to not make the process look like political persecution, so they are likely to have it spearheaded by the Federal Trade Commission and be related to Infowars’ sale of health supplements, according to Jones.

This would not be the first time that Jones has been touted as a target of the Obama White House. Back in 2009, after Jones released his viral documentary The Obama Deception, the Globe published an Obama “enemies list” that included Jones’ name.

The Obama White House’s persecution of journalists has led many to characterize it as the most hostile administration towards the free press in modern history.

Last year, author and documentary film maker Dinesh D’Souza was sentenced to five years of probation, including eight months in a community confinement center, for making an “illegal campaign contribution” by having other people give money to Republican Wendy Long and reimbursing their donations.

The sentence was described as an act of “political persecution” by many who pointed out that Democrats get away with the same behavior on a regular basis.

Back in 2007, Dallas Mavericks Mark Cuban was also threatened by the FTC for his involvement in a controversial political documentary on the basis that it might embarrass the White House.

Interesting - that happened to Reason magazine recently, too:
https://popehat.com/2015/06/08/departme ... eason-com/
https://popehat.com/2015/06/11/media-co ... n-debacle/
https://popehat.com/2015/06/18/did-the- ... -subpoena/
https://popehat.com/2015/06/22/dojs-gag ... e-thought/
https://popehat.com/2015/07/09/what-did ... ly-little/

Looks like that was a trial run.

This seems like an absurdly easy pretext for searching the ranks of "problematic" publications and websites. Any Federal Employee (or Joshua Goldberg subcontractor) could pull off a false flag in 60 seconds with the bar set that damn low.
