āAnd then like nothing came from it, they didn't even know what they were doing there, I still don't even know what they were doing there.ā
Explaining in more detail, Logan shares: āThey thought he was a terrorist or some s*** and they took 60 terabytes of f***ing Jake Paul Vlog footage, so there's a team of people at the FBIā¦ā

āWho had to watch all my Vlogs,ā Jake adds, finishing Loganās sentence.
The YouTuber went on to add: āMy voice is stuck in their head forever.ā
During the podcast, Jake claims that the reason behind the FBI raid was actually because āthey thought I had bombsā.

Jake also claims that the likes of DOGE and Elon Musk will āfix these problemsā, adding that he believes it is āpathetic, this is where taxpayer dollars are goingā.
Jake uploaded a controversial video in the run-up to the presidential election where he threw his support behind Donald Trump.
Trumpās Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) will be headed up by Musk who purports to be making huge cutbacks in government spending.
The tech mogul and billionaire has said that he will slash the federal budget and make $2 trillion in cuts to funding.
