The Blaze has reported that the pipe bombs found at Democratic and Republican offices on the night before the J6 fiasco were planted by a Capitol Police officer. The FBI already knew that the person who planted the bombs took the Metro using a farecard owned by the next-door-neighbor of the suspected cop. At the time, agents were ordered not to pursue this particular lead(!!?)
The same federal law enforcement agencies that could track down every granny who “paraded” on J6, failed to identify the fellow in expensive shoes who (illegally) built the mock gallows on Capitol grounds, could not explain to 200 agents dispatched to the J6 demonstration how the FBI was now doing crowd control but without the slightest attempt to integrate with DC or Capitol cops and most of all, could not identify the pipe bomb suspect.
The story is so very DC—Botched conspiracies? Incompetence? Coverup? All drenched in partisan spin.
A complicating factor is that there is absolutely no reason to rely on the integrity and competence of Director Wray or the investigative followup in the integrity-free zone that was the Biden FBI and DOJ.
At a minimum, the American people deserve straight and complete answers for some very basic questions. It is about time.

Charge everyone. If Democratic donors don't provide serious legal muscle nor any blue chip firms step in pro bono, then the defendant is either innocent or not part of anything larger.

Ty for this post. I had given up on any sort of examination of the pipe bomb situation rising to the surface a few months ago.
Sadly this entire atrocity is the type of insane "criminal terrorist act" that was helped along by so many millions of people suffering from TDS.

It is one thing for some blue-haired barista to have TDS. When federal agents and law enforcement personnel are similarly afflicted, that's a real problem. Note that the same cop was firing "kinetic" ordnance against early demonstrators before the crowd grew and before the break-in occurred. Deliberate provocation? Certainly not part of a coherent plan to secure entrances.

Some munitions experts have said, after viewing the video, that firing pepper balls into the faces of people in crowd is how you start a riot, not end one.
