Thief Breaks Into John Solomon’s Car Night Before Impeachment Trial, Steals Laptop Containing Explosive Information on Ukraine and Joe Biden

John Solomon

Someone broke into investigative reporter John Solomon’s car parked near the White House the night before the senate impeachment trial began.

The thief stole John Solomon’s laptop which contained sensitive information on former Vice President Joe Biden and Ukraine.

The break-in, which happened across from the White House’s Eisenhower Executive Office Building, was described as a “professional job” and authorities believe the individual(s) used a sophisticated electronic jamming device to open the car’s lock.

“It’s a pretty professional job,” John Solomon told RCI of the break-in, “but it’s probably just a coincidence.”

“It was probably just a street criminal searching for pass codes,” he added. “Or it could be someone searching for my Ukraine stuff, we don’t know at this point.”

It appears to be a targeted political hit because Solomon said nothing else was taken from his car, including cash.

Paul Sperry of Real Clear Investigations reported:

On the night before the Senate impeachment trial began, someone broke into veteran Washington investigative journalist John Solomon’s car parked near the White House and stole his laptop, according to a D.C. Metropolitan Police Department report obtained by RealClearInvestigations.

The computer contained notes on Ukraine and former Vice President Joe Biden and other sensitive information, Solomon, 52, said in an interview. He said he was preparing to launch a new podcast and news site at the time.

Though the laptop has since been recovered, the investigation is still open. “The case has been assigned a detective and is under investigation,” MPD spokesman Sean Hickman told RCI.

The Secret Service is also involved in the matter, which appears suspicious. Break-ins are rare in the high-security area where the crime occurred, just outside the White House perimeter, and a sophisticated device appears to have been used to get into the vehicle.

The computer and bag, which also contained his U.S. Capitol press security badge, were discovered the next day nearly a block away from where his car had been parked. The contents of the bag had been dumped out on a picnic bench near the FDIC building. The location had no security cameras, so there is no known video surveillance footage that can be reviewed. Authorities described it as one of the few “dark spots” in the area.

Award-winning investigative reporter John Solomon has been targeted by Dem Rep. Adam Schiff for his explosive reporting on Ukraine and the Biden crime family.

In December, Schiff (illegally) obtained John Solomon’s phone records and published his call history in a report.

Schiff smeared Solomon as a reporter who published “conspiracy theories” to “push false narratives” about Ukraine’s interference in the 2016 election to help Hillary Clinton.

John Solomon said he is working with computer forensics to see whether his hard drive was scanned by the thief.
