Owen Shroyer, host of the popular Infowars program, The War Room, is the latest political target of the FBI.
On the heels of findings that a U.S. Intelligence and Democrat fevered “insurrection” narrative surrounding the January 6 election fraud protest had little to support it, the FBI has pivoted.
They issued an arrest for Shroyer on Friday, and MSM media outlets jumped on the story.
But Shroyer had the backing of one major media figure: Tucker Carlson. Carlson himself has had his communications targeted in surveillance by U.S. Intelligence agencies.
The Trends Journal has covered that story in articles including “NSA SPYING ON CONGRESS, AND CARLSON TOO,” 13 July 2021.
Shroyer was at the Capitol at one point during the protest. But witnesses and video evidence shows he never entered the building, and did not disobey any police directives.
Shroyer was with Alex Jones, who could be seen on video actively telling protestors not to enter the Capitol or enter into any physical confrontations with police.
FBI and Democrat Assertions Have Fallen Apart
Reuters reported last week in an exclusive that the FBI has concluded there’s “scant evidence” supporting any planned or coordinated attempt to overthrow the government, as partisans have wildly claimed, following the massive January demonstration. According to the Reuters story:
“Though federal officials have arrested more than 570 alleged participants, the FBI at this point believes the violence was not centrally coordinated by far-right groups or prominent supporters of then-President Donald Trump…”
In reacting to the FBI warrant, Shroyer suggested that a past episode of activism might be part of the equation with the new charges.
The Infowars host turned himself in on Monday, and according to late afternoon reports, he was released after being formally charged.
A GoFundMe page that had garnered over 20-thousand dollars in donations was taken down by the crowdfunding site. The site has allowed pages by many people charged with crimes, seeking help with attorney fees.
A donation page at the Christian-based crowdfunding site GiveSendGo is currently live and accepting donations. That page is here.
The Trends Journal has covered the January 6 protest and the unconstitutional crackdown and government domestic surveillance that has ensued, in many articles, including:
