Under Biden’s regime, conservative voices aren’t safe from attacks and violence. In fact, we are becoming a target for harassment.
On Friday, Washington, D.C. police responded to an apparent swatting attempt aimed at former President Donald Trump advisor Steve Bannon.
The scene took place at Bannon’s Washington, DC, home at 10:45 a.m., during a live broadcast of his show, War Room. Bannon did not pause the show as armed police swarmed his house.
Police said there was a person who claimed to be armed and having a mental breakdown, and they also said they had received reports of a shooting in the 200 block of A Street NE, the report noted.
Authorities now believe that Friday’s actions were the result of someone “swatting” 68-year-old Bannon.
Swatting refers to the act of calling in a false report of an emergency or crisis in order to prompt police to descend on an individual or address, the report noted.
When police arrived no such thing was happening and it was concluded the call was a false report.
Last month popular podcaster Tim Pool has also swatted due to the fact an angry liberal made a false police report.

More details of this ‘swatting’ incident from The Post Millennial:
Armed police responded to a false report of a shooting and flooded former White House Chief Strategist Stephen K. Bannon’s Capital Hill row house Friday morning around 10:45am.
The Washington Post reports that police shut down streets near the Supreme Court and the Capitol Building for about one hour.
The Post reported that police initially said they had encountered a person who was claiming to be armed, and who appeared to be suffering from a mental health crisis. No weapon was found an no injuries were reported in that incident.
A DC police spokeswoman later said someone had called a crisis hotline and reported that a man inside Bannon’s row house in the area of the 200 block of A Street NE was armed and had shot someone.
