This is just the beginning of the persecution Biden’s DOJ will be engaging in as we get closer to the election.
They want Americans to feel afraid to speak their minds on social media.
FBI knows that we have the power to ruin their narratives in an instant.
They’re scared.

Viral videos allege Biden’s FBI is making house calls over social media posts
March 29, 2024 | Chris Donaldson
The growing perception that the FBI now functions as the politicized secret police for the Democratic party isn’t going away anytime soon.
In two videos that are going viral on the X platform, people said to be federal agents are paying visits to private residences over posts critical of President Joe Biden and his policies that have been posted to social media.
In one video claiming to show a Stillwater, OK woman receiving an unexpected house call asks to see identification from the two men and a woman who showed up on her doorstep and they are reluctant to provide it.

The woman, who if the video is an accurate depiction, is being harassed over her political views in a country where free speech is under attack from the regime and its goons who are now seemingly being dispatched on behalf of Attorney Merrick Garland’s Justice Department to investigate thought crimes.
In another video, a man who identifies himself as an FBI agent comes a-knocking for a talk with another woman over something that she posted to X.

Woman Records Very Creepy Visit by the FBI

Three individuals who claimed to be FBI agents visited a woman in Oklahoma. If there were any examples of the Department of Justice becoming Joe Biden’s personal Stasi, this is it—they were there to ask the woman about the anti-Biden memes she posted on Facebook. Of course, she wasn’t going to answer any of their questions, only declaring that what she did was exercise her constitutional right to free speech on a public social media platform. The agent gives a number for the FBI office in Oklahoma City before departing.

Never saw FBI agents looking like such slobs, refusing to show ID or offer a business card, not knowing the phone number of their own office without looking it up on the internet, and driving a Nissan without government plates. Very peculiar.
And what's the deal with the female, the only one even remotely dressed like an FBI agent? She didn't speak at all nor seem to make any move to show ID. :pondering:

Wow. Just wow.

Here is the transcript
Speech Police:: Okay. So the phone number for the FBI in Oklahoma City is 405-290-7770.
Homeowner: Okay.
Speech Police:: If you just call and give, name your contact with us and on behalf of
Support and tell him that Facebook flagged me for posts. Facebook gave us a couple screenshots of your accounts.

I have no idea whether this is true that this free speech warrior "was calling for American troops to come home in caskets."

Is "calling for American troops to come home in caskets" illegal?

Certainly not when liberals do it.

Of course not. Even if she did say something so stupid and disgusting, no FBI involvement is called for. But I'm still questioning whether these actually were FBI agents. Something is off.

Agreed. Even their car looked wrong.

That's what they said. I noticed that was not a US Government plate on the vehicle.
Oklahoma does not require a front plate (like 19 or so states), which is why she had to walk around the back of the vehicle to get a view of the plate. I am not sure if the vehicle is a rental. Maybe someone out there knows. Failure to produce ID for inspection, (flash that thing at me and it might as well have come from a gumball machine), and I have to get the range to read it. I would think that in the mayhem of getting the dogs to settle down, she didn't see the IDs.
As for looking up the number for the office (google?), I might not know many numbers, but I can surely recall the one where I work, especially if I was talking with lots of people, because I'd likely have had to give it out a lot.
No business cards? Even the meter maids in these parts (in the bigger towns) have business cards.
So I'm not buying their legitimacy as Feds, but then Feds doing illegitimate things just might be reticent when it comes to providing their info.
Does Zuckerberg have private thought police?

I am as well.
-
Nope. Not Feds at all. No way. Those are just some citizen Leftists attempting to intimidate a poster.
I would have called 911 and then stall them as much as possible until the police arrive.
What was the purpose of the statue woman who came with them? All she does is stand silently with them.
I would like to think that the FBI will track these people down for impersonating Federal Agents, but I seriously doubt anything will happen.

I am with you. I would have contacted the local PD or Sheriff the minute they refused to let me examine their credentials. And moved back where I could let the dogs out.

UPDATE:
FBI Agent Says He Hassles People 'Every Day, All Day Long' Over Facebook Posts
https://reason.com/2024/03/29/fbi-agent-says-he-hassles-people-every-day-all-day-long-over-facebook-posts/
The FBI spends "every day, all day long" interrogating people over their Facebook posts. At least, that's what agents told Stillwater, Oklahoma, resident Rolla Abdeljawad when they showed up at her house to ask her about her social media activity.
Abdeljawad told agents that she didn't want to talk and asked them to show their badges on camera, which the agents refused to do. She wrote on Facebook that she later confirmed with local police that the FBI agents really were FBI agents.
(snip)
"No, we totally do. That's why we're not here to arrest you or anything," a second agent in a red shirt added. "We do this every day, all day long. It's just an effort to keep everybody safe and make sure nobody has any ill will."
Shibly says that he doesn't know which Facebook post caught the agents' attention, and that it was the first time he had heard of Facebook's parent company, Meta, preemptively reporting posts to law enforcement. Andy Stone, a spokesman for Meta, and Kayla McCleery, a spokeswoman for the FBI's Oklahoma City office, declined to comment.*
(snip)
*UPDATE: After publication, McCleery provided the following statement; "Every day, the FBI engages with members of the public in furtherance of our mission, which is to protect the American people and uphold the Constitution of the United States. We can never open an investigation based solely on First Amendment protected activity. The FBI is committed to ensuring our activities are conducted with a valid law enforcement or national security purpose, while upholding the constitutional rights of all Americans."
Non-denial denial.

Just verified with local law enforcement that, the indivs who came to my home, really were FBI per their license plate. My lawyer will contact the OKC field office. The lawyer did inform me that, these instances are now common but, the lawyer doesn't believe that FB sent them the screenshots of my posts. Rather, it seems like a fishing expedition.
I do not fear them. My only concern as, I told the cop is that, someone in my state will do something or that they would and then use my posts in a malicious attempt to "smear" me. Just *remember, I am a Muslim, an obligated protector of creation. I enjoin what is good and forbid what is wrong.

RE: the excerpted statement from the FBI brass: Um, why are you sending out Agents to question people when there is no open investigation? Is time sitting heavily on their hands? Since when did you interview people when there is no case? Fishing Expedition, indeed!

Baloney...
How many times in our lives have we heard a victim calls the police to report a direct threat by an estranged spouse or a crazy neighbor?
And the police say, "There's nothing we can do until a crime is committed".

Nah.

FBI agent admits to questioning Americans 'all day long' about their social media posts

Time to end the FBI, rifting all the top people, starting with Wray, who at his best is a total joke!
When an agency is as corrupted as the FBI, they need a major house cleaning. It should be merged into Homeland Security, with anyone above first line supervision getting a pink slip.

Total tyranny: FBI agent admits questioning Americans “every day, all day long” about social media posts
04/05/2024 // Cassie B. // 1.9K Views
In recent years, numerous celebrities and other public figures have been raked over the coals for things they’ve said on social media. In many cases, voicing unpopular opinions can end a high-profile individual's career. But what about ordinary people who are just sharing their political views online with their friends and family?
It turns out the FBI is watching Americans’ social media posts pretty carefully, and if they don’t like what you say, they could well show up at your door and ask you to explain yourself.
A recent incident in Oklahoma highlighted just how much time and energy the American government is devoting to policing people’s speech online. Lawyer Hassan Shibly posted a video online showing FBI agents going to the home of his client, Rolla Abdeljawad, claiming they had screenshots of posts she made on Facebook that were political in nature and that they wanted to discuss them with her.
She said she wasn’t going to talk to them, and when she asked them to show their identification badges on camera, they refused. However, she later confirmed with her local police that they were part of the FBI.
