FBI RAIDS New York apartments linked to Project Veritas in investigation into how Ashley Biden's personal diary was stolen and published online
[Daily Mail, Where America Gets Its News]
  • The FBI searched two homes, one in New York and one in Westchester County

  • The addresses were linked to the conservative website Project Veritas

  • Founder James O'Keefe confirmed the searches in a video on Friday

  • He said Project Veritas received the diary from a 'tipster' and they tried to give it back to the first family

  • In October, Ashley Biden reported multiple items had been stolen in a burglary

  • Trump's DOJ then launched an investigation under AG Bill Barr

#1 Whether the item being investigated was genuine has long been in doubt. Now the FBI raid indicates it is genuine.

#2 FBI is merely a tool for Biden. Did FBI ever do anything regarding Hunters laptop?, Big fat NO.

#3 At one point, former British spy Richard Seddon was recruited to train operatives at Project Veritas. Seddon owns a company, Branch Six Consulting International, registered to an address in Sheridan, Wyo. Flyover Media, the company that owns the website that published the diary, is registered to that same address.

Referred to Veritas by Erik Prince, Sedden gained contract employment with Veritas.....then did what? And who is now investigating ?

'Branch Six Consulting'...how very original. Incorporated 15 February 2016.
A bit more on Sedden found here.

Are there Orbis Business Intelligence or Watergate Hotel connections by chance ?

1st of all "Project Veritas did not publish the diary and tried to return it. They attempted to return it to an attorney representing Ashley. The attorney refused to authenticate the diary, so he said they then turned it into law enforcement. "

BUT!MORE INTERESTING
Is how Trump's FBI was quick to jump on this for the Biden family back in 2020. But did not address the 100's of Rioting Anti-USA Radical Group Leadership crimes.

#5 /\ Is how Trump's FBI was quick to jump on this for the Biden family back in 2020.

Yes, almost as if pre-planned. Perhaps the Bureau has something on Seddon. Be a shame if Ms. Seddon were to be assigned a diplomatic post in Rawanda or Burundi.

#6 I'm not understanding what makes a girl's diary a federal investigative target. Yes, her daddy was in gummint, but he was not yet prexident*. We will know when our republic is healed (if that's still possible) when the Feebs are no longer a private thug squad for elected officials.

#7 And these assholes told us Watergate was the Crime of the Century.

The Russia Hoax.

The slanders against Judge Kavanaugh.

The "systemic police racism" hoax and the unleashing of years of race riots and unholy race wars.

The lies about mythical "insurrectionists," the murder of Ashli Babbittthe ridiculous lies about the natural death of and the comic-opera state funeral for the Capitol Hill officer, and now a gulag for scores of political prisoners in our nation's capital.

Putin's Russia has more freedom and stronger rule of law than the USSA under Magoo and his Ferret Attorney General

#8 The FBI can only get stuff done if they are political opponents or they start the crime themselves.

Real crime investigation is no longer something they can do.

#10 I would just like topoint out this is the diary with references to Biden showering with his daughter until she was twelve. So no this may be separate deciding to give Joe the clue his time is up, or rather Jill. And it this was rumored before the election in the diary, but no corroboration. Until the fbi did this anyway.

#11 All in the (Perverted Crime) Family.

Magoo's spawn is documented as having hit upon his 14 year-old niece ... see the text messages from Hunter's sister-in-law --- that would be the widow of his dead brother, the woman he began banging not long after the funeral -- the text messages telling this fetid monster to stay the f--k away from her 14 year-old daughter.

And these disgusting freaks have the gall to claim they're restoring "dignity" to the White House

#13 James O'Keefe's apartment also raided at 6AM by FBI and SDNY DoJ.

#14 I don't know if the Diary is true or not. Veritas couldn't authenticate it. I suspect the FBI might have concocted it as a trap for Project Veritas and possibly Trump. Get Veritas to make a big issue of it and/or Trump to comment on it then prove that it is false. When Veritas refused to run with it, but instead attempted to return it, they went for the next big thing - an investigation...

#15 ^ A rather plausible theory there, Crazy. I'd pick that as the front-runner, based on priors about the intel community misbehaviors.

#16 Fishing expedition. They want O'Keefe's master list of inside sources. I'd imagine he's smart enough to keep it somewhere other than at his residence. Now they'll try to get him in the "lying to the FBI" trap.
