Trump takes aim at FBI over January 6 pipe bomb mystery: Deep State coverup exposed?

In a shocking development that has reignited the national conversation about the events of January 6, 2021, former President Donald Trump has publicly asserted that the FBI knows the identity of the individual responsible for planting pipe bombs near the Democratic and Republican National Committee headquarters on the eve of the Capitol riot. Trump’s bold claim, made during a recent interview with Revolver News’ Darren Beattie, suggests a deliberate cover-up by federal authorities – a narrative that aligns with the explosive findings of a recent House Administration Committee report.

The January 6 pipe bomb incident remains one of the most perplexing and underreported aspects of that fateful day. The bombs, planted just hours before the Capitol breach, were discovered outside the DNC and RNC offices but failed to detonate. Despite an extensive FBI investigation – including over 1,000 interviews, 39,000 video files reviewed, and a $500,000 reward for information—the suspect’s identity remains a mystery. But according to Trump, the mystery may not be as unsolvable as the FBI claims.

In his interview with Beattie, the former president expressed confidence that the FBI knows who planted the bombs but has chosen to conceal the truth. “The FBI knows who did it,” Trump asserted, implying that the suspect’s identity would be politically damaging to the Biden administration and the so-called “regime” in power. This bombshell accusation comes on the heels of an 80-page House Administration Committee report that corroborates much of independent media’s reporting, raising serious questions about the FBI’s handling of the case.

The report, released just days before Trump’s interview, suggests that the FBI conducted a legitimate investigation into the pipe bombs for the first few months of 2021 but abruptly dropped the case around May of that year. Beattie and Trump both speculate that the FBI uncovered the bomber’s identity and determined that revealing it would be too embarrassing for the Biden administration. This theory has gained traction among conservatives, who have long criticized the FBI for what they see as a pattern of politically motivated misconduct.

Why is Russiagate’s Origin Story Redacted?

On January 11, 2019, at the peak of Russiagate mania and months before the release of Special Counsel Robert Mueller’s deflating report, the New York Times for the first time made public a remarkable fact. In “FBI Opened Inquiry Into Whether Trump Was Secretly Working on Behalf of Russia,” a trio of Times reporters revealed that in the days after Donald Trump’s May 2017 firing of FBI Director James Comey, the Bureau “began investigating whether he had been working on behalf of Russia.”

The country first learned the FBI was investigating “any links between individuals associated with the Trump campaign and the Russian government” when Comey testified in Congress in March, 2017. Comey then was referring to the FBI’s much-ballyhooed Crossfire Hurricane probe, which was opened in July, 2016 and targeted the likes of George Papadopoulos and Carter Page.

This second FBI probe disclosed by the Times in 2019 carried far more explosive implications, making its delayed disclosure unusual. It’s one thing for the FBI to investigate possible “links” between foreigners and a presidential campaign. It’s another for Deputy Director of the FBI Andrew McCabe to open an investigation into whether a sitting president, i.e. his boss, is “working on behalf of Russia.”

“Imagine even opening this investigation up on just your average Joe,” says Aaron Maté of RealClear Investigations. “That would be crazy, unless you have some real predication. But this is the fucking president. Andrew McCabe decides that he can do this. On what basis?”

Either the FBI had evidence to start such an investigation, which would be damning to Trump, or it didn’t, which would be damning to the FBI. Which was it?

The 2019 Times story suggested the FBI probe was begun in part to determine if Trump’s “firing of Mr. Comey constituted obstruction of justice.” Beyond that, details were scant, and once the new investigation was folded into Robert Mueller’s inquiry, the reasons for its opening disappeared into the proverbial dustbin of history. Even when Special Counsel John Durham issued his report on the FBI and Crossfire Hurricane, he made just one mention of this second investigation, saying it was beyond his purview:

We also have not interpreted the Order as directing us to consider the handling ofthe investigation into President Trump opened by the FBI on May 16, 2017.

Nobody seemed to care what this second investigation was about, or what evidence was submitted to justify its opening, until Aaron and RealClear in December, 2022 sent a Freedom of Information request. They sought a copy of the original document explaining why the FBI opened a new “Sensitive Investigative Matter” on May 16, 2017. It took over two full years for the Bureau to respond. The answer was a middle finger: six pages, almost entirely redacted, with the exception of a few paragraphs.

FBI Confirms Cybertruck Bomber Matthew Livelsberger Sent Shocking Email Claiming China’s ‘Gravitic Drones’ Threaten U.S. East Coast, Warning of Impending Attack

The FBI has verified the authenticity of an email sent by Matthew Livelsberger, the individual behind the recent Tesla Cybertruck explosion outside the Trump International Hotel in Las Vegas.

In the email, Livelsberger alleged that China has deployed advanced “gravitic drones” capable of launching attacks along the U.S. East Coast.

“We have confirmed that the document that [Livelsberger] sent to the podcast, we know that he was the one that sent that document,” said FBI Special Agent Spencer Evans, adding they have not yet addressed “into what’s legitimate, what’s not.”

Investigations also revealed that Livelsberger utilized artificial intelligence tools, including ChatGPT, to plan the attack.

He sought instructions on calculating the amount of explosives needed and how to purchase a phone without revealing his personal information.

REVEALED: Top FBI Leader in New Orleans Was on Vacation Over New Year’s Despite Known Vulnerabilities on Bourbon Street – And Left DEI Special Agent with Nose Ring in Charge

According to the Oversight Project, the top FBI leader in New Orleans was on vacation in Italy over New Year’s despite known vulnerabilities on Bourbon Street, leaving the DEI hire with a nose ring in charge.

According to the Oversight Project, top FBI brass Lyonel Myrthil was in Italy which is why they left Special Agent Alethea Duncan in charge to brief the public after the terror attack.

In a carefully worded statement, the FBI confirmed to the Oversight Project that Lyonel Myrthil was “en route to a family vacation out of the country” when the terrorist attack occurred.

FBI Deputy Director Paul Abbate didn’t even know Lyonel Myrthil was out of the country. Abbate deployed a senior counterterrorism official from FBI HQ to New Orleans hours after the terror attack.

FBI still hiding key Russiagate details, newly released document shows

As Donald Trump re-enters the White House on a pledge to end national security state overreach, the Federal Bureau of Investigation is still hiding critical details on the Russia conspiracy investigation that engulfed his first term.

In response to a Freedom of Information request that I filed in August 2022, the FBI on December 31, more than two years later, released a heavily redacted copy of the document that opened an explosive and unprecedented counterintelligence probe of the sitting president as an agent of the Russian government.

The Electronic Communication, dated May 16, 2017, claimed to have an “articulable factual basis” to suspect that Trump “wittingly or unwittingly” was illegally acting on behalf of Russia, and accordingly posing “threats to the national security of the United States.” The FBI’s “goal,” it added, was “to determine if President Trump is or was directed by, controlled by, and/or coordinated activities with, the Russian Federation.” It additionally sought to uncover whether Trump and unnamed “others” obstructed “any associated FBI investigation” – a reference to Crossfire Hurricane, the initial FBI inquiry into the Trump campaign’s suspected cooperation with an alleged Russian interference plot in the 2016 election.

While Crossfire Hurricane, which was formally opened on July 31, 2016, had by that point focused on members of Trump’s orbit, the May 2017 probe was specifically targeted at the president himself during his fourth month in office. The investigation of Trump was undertaken at the behest of then-acting FBI director Andrew McCabe, one week after Trump had fired his former boss and mentor, James B. Comey.

According to the declassified document, McCabe’s decision was approved by FBI Assistant Director Bill Priestap, who had also signed off on the opening of Crossfire Hurricane; and Jim Baker, the FBI general counsel. Baker was a longtime friend of Michael Sussmann, a lawyer for the presidential campaign of Hillary Clinton, and a key figure in the dissemination of Clinton-funded disinformation to the FBI that falsely tied Trump to Russia. In his FBI role, Baker personally circulated the conspiracy theory, manufactured by “researchers” working with the Clinton campaign, that the Trump campaign and Russia were communicating via a secret server. After leaving the FBI, Baker served as deputy general counsel at Twitter, where he backed the company’s censorship of reporting on the contents of Hunter Biden’s laptop, based on yet another conspiracy theory that the laptop files were Russian disinformation.

FBI Releases Suspiciously Doctored Video of January 6 Pipe Bomber After House Report Reveals Bureau Engaged in Massive Coverup

Four years later…

The FBI on Thursday evening released *new* footage of the January 6 pipe bomber after Rep. Loudermilk released a report revealing the bureau engaged in a massive coverup operation.

For years we’ve been told an unidentified suspect planted pipe bombs at the RNC and DNC headquarters on January 5, the night before the Capitol riot.

The FBI still ‘can’t find’ the person who planted the bombs.

A new report released Thursday morning by the Committee on House Administration Subcommittee on Oversight into the January 6 pipe bomber shows the FBI stopped looking for the suspect in 2021 and covered up evidence.

Later Thursday evening, the FBI released new information on the January 6 pipe bomber and offered a $500,000 reward for information that leads to the arrest of the suspect.

The FBI says the January 6 pipe bomber is approximately 5’7″ tall.

Why We Cannot Trust the FBI

It gives me no joy to write this, but it must be said — the FBI is a broken law enforcement institution and should be dismantled. I believe the same about the CIA, but that’s a topic for another day. Based on the FBI’s conduct over the last eight years, I find no reason to trust anything that FBI officials say with respect to the recent attacks in New Orleans and Las Vegas. Yes, I think both acts qualify as terrorism, but I have little confidence that we are getting, or will get, the true story.

I worked closely with the FBI during my time in the Office of the Coordinator for Counter Terrorism at the Department of State (1989 -1993). During my first months on the job, I was one of two State officers writing country clearance cables regarding the investigation of the bombing of Pan Am 103, i.e., a message to one of our embassies requesting permission for FBI agents to conduct an investigation in a particular country. In addition, I worked on exercises and real-world missions with members of the FBI’s Hostage Rescue Team who served as members of the Foreign Emergency Support Team (aka FEST). I also had the privilege of coordinating with Floyd Clarke, who was the Deputy Director of the FBI, on implementing an advertising campaign for the Terrorism Rewards Program. The FBI agents I worked with were honorable, professional men. They were apolitical.

That is not the case today. The leadership of the FBI has become a gang of partisan, political hacks. What is the evidence? Let’s start with the Russiagate investigation, which was the first big warning sign for me. The FBI, working with the CIA and the United Kingdom’s MI-6, carried out a deliberate operation to sabotage the campaign and subsequent Presidency of Donald Trump. The FBI knowingly lied on multiple FISA warrants and suffered no consequences.

Even after Trump’s surprising victory, the FBI — conspiring with the Department of Justice — manufactured a crime to destroy Trump’s National Security Advisor, General Michael Flynn. Mike committed no crime, but was saddled with criminal charges that bankrupted him financially and defamed his reputation.

Then there was the Hunter Biden laptop. My friend, JP Mac Isaac, was the unfortunate soul who received two damaged computers from Hunter Biden. Despite repeated attempts to contact Hunter and have him retrieve his property, JP became the rightful owner of the hard drives — by virtue of abandonment — per the work agreement that Hunter signed. JP and his dad, Steve, made repeated attempts to contact the FBI to turn over the hard drives. It was only in December 2017 that the FBI finally showed up and took possession. But, instead of conducting an investigation of the ample evidence of criminal activity present on the hard drive, the FBI buried it.

The FBI turned into an American version of the Stasi in the events leading up to and surrounding January 6. There was a legion of FBI informants in the crowd who had one mission — create a riot and a predicate crime for arresting Trump supporters. The subsequent persecution and prosecution of Trump supporters conjured up images of political purges associated with the reign of Joseph Stalin. The FBI, in my opinion, became adept at creating crimes rather than solving them.

Surprise! House Releases Bombshell Report on January 6 Pipe Bomber Revealing FBI Engaged in Massive Coverup and Refuses to Cooperate with Investigators

A new report released by the Committee on House Administration Subcommittee on Oversight into the January 6 pipe bomber shows the FBI stopped looking for the suspect in 2021 and covered up evidence.

The FBI is now refusing to cooperate with Congressional investigators.

In September, former Secret Service agent Dan Bongino said according to a whistleblower, after the pipe bombs were found at the RNC and DNC headquarters, “assets on the ground, including a whistleblower, was briefed about the pipe bombs the next day and show a picture of a guy in a hoodie.”

However, according to the whistleblower, the law enforcement agents were told to stand down two days later.

“But two days later after the pipe bombs, he notes, emphasis his — without explanation, they were told to stand down! No need to look for the guy anymore” Bongino said.

This directly contradicts previous statements by FBI Director Christopher Wray.

Biden FBI Called White Supremacy ‘Most Persistent, Lethal Threat’ Before Islamist Terrorism Attack

How does a jihadist, flying an ISIS flag on his pickup truck, go undetected in the United States long enough to plow into pedestrians, killing at least 15 and injuring many more?

The FBI says Shamsud-Din Jabbar, 42, a U.S. citizen from Texas, is responsible for the deadly New Year’s Day terror attack in New Orleans and that he likely did not act alone. Law enforcement is still looking for others who may be involved.

Jabbar was not the threat on President Joe Biden’s radar. Jabbar did not fit the profile of the terrorists Biden, his crooked Department of Justice (DOJ), and feckless Department of Homeland Security (DHS) have been searching for.

While the DHS left U.S. borders wide open for any criminal or harmful ideology to enter, the DOJ made “domestic violent extremism” a “national priority area,” numerous reports show.

In June 2021, the National Security Council announced a plan to target domestic terrorists, mostly “those who promote the superiority of the white race” and “militia violent extremists.” The FBI called them “the most persistent and lethal threats.”

That is code for the kind of people who went to the U.S. Capitol on Jan. 6, 2021.

“Our current effort comes on the heels of … the Jan. 6 assault on our nation’s Capitol,” Attorney General Merrick Garland said in a June 2021 speech introducing the new focus on domestic terrorism.

“Certainly, the Capitol attack involved violent extremist[s],” FBI Director Christopher Wray testified to the Senate Judiciary Committee on March 2, 2021. He called those present for the chaos at the Capitol domestic terrorists, named the Proud Boys and Oath Keepers, and said some were “racially motivated violent extremists” who advocate for white supremacy.

Domestic terrorists are Americans who commit violence with goals that stem from “domestic, extremist ideological influence, and lack foreign direction or influence,” according to the FBI.

ISIS is a violent foreign influence, but the FBI was focused on domestic influences.  

Biden should have known ISIS is a threat. A 2019 Department of State report under President Donald Trump details its deadly attacks. But in an outrageous act of political malpractice, Biden decided instead to use the resources of the FBI to hunt down perceived domestic political threats that questioned his administration.

Biden has used a lot of terms to describe the domestic threat: White supremacy, Right-wing Christian extremism, violent extremists, but they all lead to one term: MAGA Republicans — the Make America Great Again crowd who just voted Donald Trump back into office.

In an angry, troubling Sept. 1, 2022 speech, titled “The Continued Battle for the Soul of the Nation,” Biden spoke derisively of “MAGA Republicans” 13 times.

Houston Mosque Reportedly Attended by New Orleans Terrorist Instructs Members NOT to Speak to the FBI and Refer Them to Radical CAIR

Masjid Bilal ISGH, a mosque in Houston reportedly attended by the New Orleans terrorist Shamsud-Din Jabbar, has instructed its members not to speak to the FBI.

Instead, the mosque advised its congregation to direct law enforcement inquiries to the radicals of the Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR) or the Islamic Society of Greater Houston (ISGH).

Jabbar, a 42-year-old U.S. Army veteran who was discharged from the Army Reserve in 2020 with the rank of staff sergeant, converted to Islam before spiraling into erratic behavior, according to family members who spoke with far-left New York Times.

Dwayne Marsh, married to Jabbar’s ex-wife, noted the suspect’s increasingly bizarre actions, including cutting his hair drastically and displaying erratic behavior that prompted them to restrict his access to his daughters.

Jabbar had moved into a predominantly Muslim neighborhood north of Houston approximately a year ago.

Following the New Orleans attack, FBI investigators descended on the area, including the local mosque, Masjid Bilal ISGH.

Meanwhile, Masjid Bilal ISGH issued a statement to its members that many have criticized as an attempt to obstruct justice.

In a Facebook post, Masjid Bilal ISGH’s leadership instructed its members to avoid speaking to the media and, if approached by the FBI, to refer inquiries to CAIR or ISGH.
