Right, we should trust Biden's FBI and CIA who found the guy in the 4 years they were in charge.

Funny Dat.

And you believe this administration without question!

I'll believe they actually "found the guy" when he is indicted and convicted by a jury of his peers.

Has this been verified by at least two RELIABLE sources?

Nothing coming from this Administration can be believed or trusted until verified.

That's rich coming from someone who supports the Trump, who just pardoned a cocaine importer, saving him from 45 years in the slammer.

Rich, indeed!

Many individuals who were involved in the January 6 Capitol attack, particularly those who received a presidential pardon from Donald Trump in January 2025, have since been arrested again for separate crimes.

At least ten pardoned individuals have faced new or pending criminal charges, including serious offenses such as:

Threatening a member of Congress

Conspiracy to murder FBI agents

Kidnapping and aggravated assault

Unlawful firearm possession

Burglary and vandalism

Reckless homicide

Those are YOUR party's maga voters my sick friend.

It's only been 10 months for the ones who found the suspect. The other 4 years is on the Brandon Brigade.

Sure, but the guys that tried to assassinate Trump and the one that assassinated Kirk are hard core MAGAs according to you.

Maybe as soon as after next November there will be television shows by illusionists showing how the first "assassination attempt" was done.

The second "assassination attempt" was a man hiding behind a fence who didn't get within a mile of His Orangeness.

A. Nobody tried to "assassinate" PEDO DONNIE. Anyone who believes that is an ignorant, mouth-breathing knuckle-dragging MAGAT ------.

B. MAGATS are the only criminals Americans need to worry about.

He was part of the J6 riot. It was an oversight (or just incompetence) to not pardon him, too.

Also.. Maybe he's a drug dealer, too.

Has Fuxed Spews apologized for promoting one of their hateful maga conspiracies against a member of the Capitol Police?

Fox News personalities have repeatedly promoted conspiracy theories about the January 6 (J6) pipe bomb incident, suggesting it was a "false flag" or an "inside job" orchestrated by federal agencies like the FBI or CIA, or that the bombs were not real threats.

The FBI on Thursday threw cold water on a story on a right-wing website that named a former Capitol Police officer as a potential match for the individual who planted pipe bombs at the Republican National Committee and the Democratic National Committee before the Jan. 6 attack on the U.S. Capitol.

...

The owner of the home happened to be a neighbor of a former Capitol Police officer named in a story as a potential suspect in the pipe bomb incident on the conservative news site, The Blaze. The Blaze cited a "gait analysis" " a study of how a person walks " saying that it found a 94% match between the officer and the suspect. The former officer now works in campus security for the CIA, a source with knowledge of the person's employment told NBC News.

...

The Blaze story was promoted by Rep. Thomas Massie, R-Ky., and Loudermilk, who heads a new select subcommittee that aims to counter the findings of the now-defunct Jan. 6 committee that operated during the Biden administration.

I would expect a large defamation settle is already being discussed.

The conspiracy that it was the capitol police because the "gait" proves it was way better.

You should have just doubled down on that one instead of changing your tune.

The man charged with planting two pipe bombs in Washington, D.C., on the eve of the Jan. 6 Capitol riot told the FBI he believed the 2020 election was stolen, according to a report.

Brian Cole Jr., 30, of Woodbridge, Virginia, was arrested on Thursday and is now speaking with the FBI, people briefed on the matter told CNN. Sources separately told NBC News that Cole told the FBI he believed conspiracy theories about the election.

The FBI is claiming that they found this guy with the information they already had in possession. Meaning, they didn't get some new tidbit of info that enabled them to crack the case.

So, it took the FBI 10 months to accomplish what the previous leadership was unable to accomplish in 4 years. Wray's FBI moved heaven and earth to track down grannies who were waved into the capitol by Capitol police, wandered around for 20 minutes and then left. They threw the book at these people (I'm talking about the ones who weren't violent). Yet they can't track this guy down who was and is far more dangerous than a 65 year old granny with no priors for what was essentially trespassing.
