> Hurtak said the warrant was “solely related to my husband’s work as a journalist,” though Burke now runs his own consulting business.
Being employed by a billionaire owned corporation does not make you a journalist. Doing journalism makes you a journalist.

From the little info about the arrest in the article" hack" sounds super click baity. I bet he had a video a very rich person didn't want him to have, which isn't a crime in and of itself. But hey, it's America after all
The FBI is political. They slap their name on every case they can but they really exist to get take over and derail investigations that make powerful people look bad or intimidate people who made powerful people look bad. The Durham report and recent FBI whistleblowers testimony basically prove this.
I'm confused. Did someone important make criminal allegations against him and the FBI is up in his business to see if there's a there there?
Burke often shares short clips of offbeat moments from sports and news channels. The article states that he has recently shared behind-the-scenes clips of Tucker Carlson on his former Fox show; it appears likely that this raid was related to determining the origin of those clips.
