A conservative journalist has been arrested by the FBI for reporting on January 6th.

The journalist is Steve Baker of the Blaze, and not only was he arrested, he was purplocked even after turning himself into authorities.

The FBI's actions are particularly strange since according to Steve Baker,

his lawyers were assured by the government that it would be an in and out affair and that they

had no intention of detaining him.

According to Mr. Baker, the FBI went so far as to tell him to arrive in shorts and

sandals. That's how casual it was all going to be. But since we all know how the

FBI has been corrupted to target conservatives in recent years, Steve had the good sense to

distrust the feds and to wear a suit and tie, which was wise

since the feds instead gave him the personal humiliation treatment.

None of this should be a surprise to conservatives who might remember how the FBI

spied on Fox News's James Rosen during the Obama administration, even going so far

as to describe James as a criminal co-conspirator despite never charging him with a crime.

Or how the Obama administration spied on Cheryl Atkinson of CBS, allegedly, as she was reporting on the Fast and Furious scandal.

The irony of it all is that despite the Lib's constant bleeding over threats to the

free press and all the serious attacks on the press in

recent memory have been against conservative journalists who dared to shed

light on the misdeeds of the liberal establishment.

Just as all actual threats to the Constitution in recent years, in recent decades actually, have

been attacked by that same liberal establishment which understands better than conservatives

that the true lowercase C constitution that governs us

is rather different from the capital C constitution
