Yesterday The Washington Examiner<\/a> reported the following:<\/p>\n

T<\/span>he FBI has conducted searches of at least two New York locations tied to the conservative investigative group Project Veritas, reportedly in connection with the alleged theft of a diary belonging to Ashley Biden, the youngest daughter of President Joe Biden.<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u201cI awoke to the news that apartments and homes of Project Veritas journalists, or former journalists, had been raided by FBI agents,\u201d Project Veritas founder James O\u2019Keefe said in a statement <\/a> posted on his website on Friday. \u201cIt appears the Southern District of New York now has journalists in their sights for the supposed \u2018crime\u2019 of doing their jobs lawfully and honestly. Or at least, this journalist.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n

The Biden family claims the diary was stolen in a burglary in 2020, but that may or may not be the case.<\/p>\n

The article notes:<\/p>\n

A right-wing outlet called the National File<\/i> published dozens of pages of 40-year-old Ashley Biden\u2019s purported diary in October 2020, with the handwritten pages covering a number of salacious, personal topics. The outlet said at the time it \u201chas obtained what a whistleblower has identified as a copy of the complete diary\u201d belonging to Biden\u2019s daughter with first lady Jill Biden, as well as an audio recording of Ashley Biden, “admitting this is her diary.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n

O\u2019Keefe said <\/a> Friday, \u201cLate last year, we were approached by tipsters claiming they had a copy of Ashley Biden\u2019s diary. We had never met or heard of the tipsters. The tipsters indicated that the diary had been abandoned in a room in which Ms. Biden stayed at the time, and in which the tipsters stayed in temporarily after Ms. Biden departed the room.<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u201cThe tipsters indicated that the diary included explosive allegations against then-candidate, Joe Biden. The tipsters indicated that they were negotiating with a different media outlet for the payment of monies for the diary.”<\/strong><\/p>\n

O\u2019Keefe added, \u201cAt the end of the day, we made the ethical decision that because, in part, we could not determine if the diary was real, if the diary in fact belonged to Ashley Biden, or if the contents of the diary occurred, we could not publish the diary and any part thereof. We attempted to return the diary to an attorney representing Ms. Biden, but that attorney refused to authenticate it. Project Veritas gave the diary to law enforcement to ensure it could be returned to its rightful owner. We never published it.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n

So where is the diary now? Why is the FBI spending its time looking for a diary?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
