Who Planted the Jan. 6 Dud Pipe Bombs?
It was the night before the terrible day where we almost lost our democracy. Someone planted two dud pipe bombs outside the DNC and RNC headquarters. But our crack law enforcement officers have found out nothing about the perpetrator. It’s almost as if the Feds don’t want to catch the person. Maybe it would show that the FBI was creating another case for it to solve.
I suspect Christopher Wray knows the truth but admitting it would open unwelcome doors. Attorney General Merrick Garland has been prosecuting little old ladies who were waved into the Capitol, but there’s been no progress in finding this key person who was talking on a cell phone. If there was a conspiracy, he was part of it. As Holmes said in “Silver Blaze,” the dog not barking in the night tells you much about the case.

Great question. So until we get some kind of coherent answer, I’m just going to assume it was them. I’ve seen enough evidence that they are capable of doing this kind of thing. As to why they didn’t detonate, I can’t rule out general ineptitude and incompetence, which they have clearly demonstrated recently.

I suspect that he and Ray Epps will be going on a long fishing trip; maybe to Fiji. At government expense, of course.
Possibly the same criminal mastermind behind the Gretchen Whitmer kidnapping plot?
Well, the FBI has a lot of experience in ginning up “terror attacks” and “bombings.” Though they usually use some mentally impaired person as the patsy. Maybe this time they decided to cut out the middleman.
This question is like asking who coordinated Jeffery Epstein’s death. I think we have reached the point where the people in charge no longer care about trying to lie or setup patsy’s. It is like the Stasi won the Cold War.
This seemed like a big deal to me at the time but then the bomb story seemed to go away fairly quickly. The bombs made it sound like more than just a mob that got out of hand. And bombs are a greater threat than guys taking selfies. Is the Jan 6 committee looking into this or are they focused on who sent texts to Trump. A lot of things that committee could be doing, instead they are only doing politics.

They haven’t even told us the motive behind the Las Vegas shooting, yet!
Heck remember the Las Vegas massacre of 2017? Still no answers there, I’m not holding my breath on the FBI brain trust finding answers to anything.
If they’re even looking for them.
Yeah; tend to think that the FBI’s “search” is a bit like OJ’s search for the “real” killers.
Have them check the FBI evidence locker/log! See if two were taken and returned.
Remember that ‘MAGA’ mental guy that produced those “inert pipe bombs” in 2016? 2018? That Mexican looking guy that was living in a Van? They looked like a child stuck a candle wick in a road flare. That seemed awfully suspicious at the time.
And like O.J., they just have to look in the mirror.
