00:08I pressed the elevator button and all of a sudden I feel myself being jostled and people
00:13trying to grab me and put me in handcuffs and I said, what are you doing here? And they
00:17said, we came to arrest you and I said, who are you? And then finally they like identified
00:22themselves and I said, if you are who you are, then where's the warrant? And they didn't
00:25have a warrant. So they had to wait for someone from outside, an FBI guy to come in to show
00:30me a warrant. Maybe a dozen people, which is a waste, Jimmy, of resources because I told
00:36them weeks before, maybe once or twice, that we would, you know, I think my attorney tried
00:41to contact them once, maybe twice. They want to embarrass you. They want to intimidate you.
00:46They want to instill fear. And so that's why they did it that way. They had the handcuffs
00:50on me and my bracelet I had on a bracelet that my husband bought me for a wedding, which
00:55was this diamond bracelet and it kept getting caught. And it was kind of hurting. And I,
01:00they said they'd take it off. And I said, do you mind taking that up to my husband in
01:04room, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah. And one of the FBI agents said, sure, and took it
01:08up. And that's how my husband found out. Otherwise, no one would have known where I was.
01:13It doesn't likeрок. elmen don't listen to nothing. And the Release Black Man. We got you
01:57So look, I want to thank everybody for their support.
01:59It really, it truly means the world to me.
02:02I have no idea what's going on because obviously I haven't seen anything.
02:06I have spent my entire career covering the news.
02:09I will not stop now.
02:13In fact, there is no more important time than right now, this very moment, for a free and
02:21independent media that shines a light on the truth and holds those in power accountable.
02:26Again, I will not stop now.
02:27I will not stop ever.
02:31Last night, the DOJ sent a team of federal agents to arrest me in the middle of the night
02:35for something that I've been doing for the last 30 years, and that is covering the news.
02:43The First Amendment of the Constitution protects that work for me and for countless of other
02:48journalists who do what I do.
02:51I stand with all of them, and I will not be silenced.
02:56I look forward to my day in court.
02:59Thank you all.
03:00I see a man who does it.
