Despite its initial efforts, the FBI has yet to identify the suspect and has refused to provide the Subcommittees with additional information about these investigative leads.

Given the fervor with which the FBI has pursued individuals present at the Capitol on January 6, 2021, it's puzzling that their investigation into the placing of explosive devices nearby — which posed a threat to Secret Service protectees and others — has virtually stalled out. It's even more puzzling that the agency provided incorrect (false?) information regarding the data obtained from cellphone carriers. //

Just spitballing, but maybe USCP were lackadaisical about letting both the Speaker and pedestrians into the immediate area because they knew there was no immediate danger, or maybe even any danger. //

The FBI stopped looking for the pipe bomber because he was/is an FBI operative and/or agent. The whole January 6th "insurrection" nonsense was a Deep State and FBI setup. They admit they had what, 30 plus operatives at the location and you have Lynn Cheney and Pelosi literally destroying evidence from their congressional hearing. We are living under a rogue, neo-fascist government and just don't know it yet. We will be very fortunate if Trump and associates can get rid of much of this scum. //

Sorry, is this where we all play dumb? The FBI put the bombs there as a Plan B in case stirring up a riot didn't work out.

It's ugly, but not complicated. //

What's behind all this? The FBI is unwilling to identify the "paid informant" who planted the bombs, because it might come out that he was on their payroll.
