(here we go, fascism taking form.) 01/14/26 08:13 AM Edit Reply Quote Last month, Washington Post reporter Hannah Natanson penned a first-person piece about her long year as “the federal government whisperer,” receiving tips from hundreds of federal workers impacted by President Donald Trump’s transformation of the government. On Wednesday morning, FBI agents arrived at Natanson’s home and executed a search warrant. One phone and two computers were seized, the Post reported. Attorney General Pam Bondi alleged in a post on X that Natanson was “obtaining and reporting classified and illegally leaked information from a Pentagon contractor.” The Post had no immediate response to Bondi’s allegation. Earlier, a Post spokesperson said the publication was monitoring the situation. The highly unusual search immediately set off alarms among press freedom advocates. “Searches of newsrooms and journalists are hallmarks of illiberal regimes, and we must ensure that these practices are not normalized here,” said Jameel Jaffer, executive director of the Knight First Amendment Institute. Natanson was told that she is not a target of the investigation, a person familiar with the matter told CNN. Instead, it appears to be related to an ongoing probe of a government contractor in Maryland. https://www.cnn.com/2026/01/14/media/fbi-hannah-natanson-washington-post-search-doj Report Remind Me Link
