In the latest troubling display of overreach by the Biden Administration, brave conservative journalist Steve Baker has been unjustly targeted and taken into federal custody. The charges against him are flimsy misdemeanors related to his coverage of the January 6 riot at the U.S. Capitol. It’s clear that the left is out for blood, trying to silence any voices that dare to question their narrative.

Baker’s diligent reporting uncovered potential perjury by a U.S. Capitol Police officer, shedding light on discrepancies in the government’s version of events. Despite his efforts to reveal the truth, Baker now finds himself on the receiving end of a witch hunt orchestrated by the very authorities he was holding to account.
The mainstream media and Democrats have constructed a twisted tale of the January 6 events, painting all participants as violent extremists. Independent journalists like Baker, who refuse to toe the liberal line, are being persecuted for daring to challenge the official narrative. This is a blatant attack on freedom of the press and an egregious abuse of power by the Biden Administration.
It’s alarming to see the lengths to which the left will go to silence dissenting voices. The fact that Baker’s reporting contradicts the government’s version of events is precisely why his work is so essential. We need more journalists like him who are unafraid to ask the tough questions and hold those in power accountable.
The unjust treatment of Steve Baker is a stark reminder of the dangers of unchecked government power and the importance of a free and independent press. Conservatives must stand together in defense of our values and principles, and demand justice for those who are targeted simply for speaking the truth.
