Loudermilk to Beck: Feds may be going after Blaze News' Steve Baker because 'he's onto something' they want kept secret
|
[Blaze] Republican U.S. Rep. Barry Loudermilk (Ga.) on Wednesday told Blaze Media co-founder Glenn Beck the reason the FBI and the U.S. Department of Justice may be going after Blaze News investigative journalist Steve Baker over his Jan. 6, 2021, coverage is because "he's onto something" the federal government wants kept under wraps.
What are the details?
During his radio show interview with Loudermilk, Beck brought up Tuesday's news about GOP House Judiciary Chairman Jim Jordan opening an investigation into the DOJ over Baker's March 1 arrest and "demanding all of the documents and [internal] communication ... to know why this guy was treated differently than the New York Times. Are we gonna find anything on this? Nobody believes that any of this is gonna change a darn thing, which is frightening, quite honestly."
Loudermilk — who chairs the House Oversight Subcommittee — replied that he can anticipate the FBI will say "this is an active investigation, so we can't provide you with anything." But the congressman added that "potentially one of the reasons that they've done this is so certain information that [Baker] was working on can't be subpoenaed or ... provided to Congress. That's one theory of why they've gone after [Baker] and not the [other journalists] — because he was onto something. Look, my dad, a World War II veteran, used to to tell me all the time ... you took the most incoming fire when you were over the target."
Loudermilk added that the federal government's treatment of Baker "is a red flag to me" that "he's onto something."
Beck then shifted to an upcoming analysis Baker has been working on — one Loudermilk is familiar with — that Beck said could turn out to be "one of the worst things." Indeed, if Baker's investigation shows it's true, Beck said, "I think it's regime-changing. And I use the word 'regime' intentionally."
"I agree with you on that," Loudermilk replied. "People don't go to these extreme measures to cover up something that isn't real."
