'A federal judge in the Southern District of New York ordered the
release of the Ashley Biden Diary criminal investigation affidavit and
search warrant materials related to the FBI’s raid on James O’Keefe’s newsroom. However, nearly every word of the probable cause section has
been redacted. Page 43 of the affidavit states, “probable cause
justifying search of the person and subject premises,” but the
justification itself is entirely redacted Instead, the only visible
footnote states, “Based upon my training and experience, I have learned amongst other things that cell phones are capable of sending emails.” O’Keefe calls this absurd, questioning how such a vague statement could justify a raid on a newsroom. He argues, “If you’re going to take the extraordinary step of using violence against people and going through
their notebooks, you need to know the reason.”
The affidavit also includes documentation of O’Keefe being forced to
unlock his phone for law enforcement, stating, “Law enforcement
personnel are authorized to obtain from James O’Keefe the display of biometric characteristics.” O’Keefe likens this to “a clockwork orange” scenario, describing it as an invasive tactic used against journalists
with confidential sources.
The document lists alleged crimes such as “conspiracy to transport
across state lines, interstate transportation of property, possession of
stolen goods, aiding and abetting, accessory after the fact, and
misprision of a felony.” Yet, O’Keefe argues that he “never even spoke with these sources” or “emailed them,” questioning the basis of these accusations. Throughout the affidavit, the government redacted even
seemingly irrelevant details, such as O’Keefe’s date of birth,” to which O’Keefe remarked “Wikipedia shows when I was born. I don’t know why they need to redact the year I was born.” Calling the level of secrecy “a national disgrace,” O’Keefe asserts that the excessive redactions serve
to protect prosecutors from scrutiny, stating, “The judge, Annalisa
Torres, has the power to unredact this,” and vows legal action.
