@Hazeee1312’s profile photo showed a person wearing the same stylized white mask as the person in the video threat. Within hours of sharing the video, @Hazeee1312 deleted his entire account, which was created back in 2013.

TPM can report exclusively that the @Hazeee1312 account was operated by far-left journalist, Jarrid Bailey Huber. The 21-year-old from Damascus, Ore. has been a staple at Antifa protests and riots in Portland and elsewhere in the U.S.

Huber’s Facebook page is filled with flyers advertising BLM-Antifa events. His now-deleted Twitter account also shared extremist content from Antifa accounts. On Wednesday he also briefly shared the video on his Facebook but quickly deleted the post. A February 2020 post by Huber used language against Wheeler similar to what was said by the narrator in one part of the video.

When reached for comment, Huber denied having any involvement in the video.

“I had nothing to do with this video, I was asked to share it and that is all I did,” Huber wrote in an email.

When asked who asked him to promote the video, he responded, “an anonymous person.” Huber then said he did not give permission for his name to be used in this report and refused to answer further inquiries.

Wheeler’s office sent TPM the following statement: “The Police Bureau has opened an investigation into the threat.”

Additionally, FBI Portland’s spokesperson Beth Anne Steele released the following statement:

“The FBI is aware of the video and is assisting Portland Police Bureau in the investigation. Due to the on-going nature of the case, we have no further information to release at this time. Anyone with information as to the person or people responsible for this video are encouraged to contact the FBI or PPB. The FBI can be reached at (503) 224-4181 or via tips. fbi. gov.”

Huber is the latest journalist to be linked to or arrested over far-left extremism. Earlier this month, University of Oregon journalism student Alma Yesenia Raven-Guido was charged with multiple felonies over her alleged role in carrying out arson attacks during Antifa rioting in Portland. The same week, Miguel Louis Lofland, who calls for political violence on his social media, was arrested in Olympia, Wash. at an Antifa riot. He was wearing a homemade “Antifa News Network” press badge at the time. In December 2020, journalist Renea Baek Goddard was indicted in Little Rock, Ark. following a months-long ATF investigation. She’s accused of firebombing police cruisers at BLM riots last summer.

Almost Half of Federal Cases Against Portland Rioters Have Been Dismissed

Many charged in connection with violence surrounding last year’s racial-justice protests have completed community service and won’t be tried

By Aruna Viswanatha and Sadie Gurman Updated April 15, 2021 12:41 pm ET

Of 96 cases the U.S. attorney’s office in Portland filed last year charging protesters with federal crimes, including assaulting federal officers, civil disorder, and failing to obey, prosecutors have dropped 47 of them, government documents show. Ten people have pleaded guilty to related charges and two were ordered detained pending trial. None have gone to trial.

The penalties levied so far against any federal defendants, most of whom were arrested in clashes around federal buildings in Portland including the courthouse, have largely consisted of community service, such as working in a food bank or encouraging people to vote.
