We told you about this last December, in which Baker tweeted “My attorney has just been notified by @FBI that I am going to be charged by @TheJusticeDept for my journalistic efforts on #Jan6. I have to self-surrender on Tuesday. Charges are yet unknown.”
Responding to a question on X about entering the Capitol, Baker said “Yes . . . I entered the Capitol, like about 60 other journalists. Did no damage or parading or violence.”
Baker says he’s never been a Trump supporter, that he was there to cover what was happening just like 60 other journalists.
Charges have been released and here’s a screencap from the charging document:
Hopefully he will be vindicated in court but even if that were to happen, he’s still having to pay lawyer bills for doing his job because of the anti-MAGA overreach of Biden’s DOJ.
