“The FBI showed up to my house to discuss my TV show exposing Antifa’s network,” Beck posted to social media on Monday, referencing the umbrella term for a broad and decentralized grouping of militant far-left activists who say they oppose fascism. “If you are a member of Antifa or providing material or financial support for Antifa, I might be a little concerned because the FBI is DEADASS serious about investigating you.”

    So, you want me to believe that the FbI, an organization that was basically built to do this kind of investigation into domestic organizations and finding people and has done so for over a century…went to some random old ass guy, whose sole job is saying dumb shit into a microphone, for advice?

      Given who is currently in charge of the FBI would it really be that surprising. Reminder half of the Trump administration is made up of D tier influencers and F tier TV hosts, they’ll jack off their fellows for basically any reason if it gets views. Also I suspect that someone said something along the lines of “We will need outside advice” to blow off someone and they probably took it seriously.
