The Pipe Bomber’s Actions Were Necessary to Enable Speaker Pelosi to Certify the 2020 Election for Joe Biden

It turns out that the pipe bomber on Jan 6 was not a man, as had been assumed for more than four years.  Reports over the past 48 hours claim that the pipe bomber was a Capitol policewoman by the name of Shauni Rae Kerkhoff.  This comes after more than four years of not knowing who the pipe bomber was.

It appears that the FBI and Capitol Police were not interested in identifying the person who planted pipe bombs on the evening of January 5th near the RNC and DNC buildings in DC. Is this because the pipe bomber was one of them, and if it were found out that the Capitol Police were involved with the pipe bombs found on Jan 6, Americans would be outraged with the news?

Perhaps an even bigger reason to cover up the identity of the pipe bomber is that the planting of pipe bombs at the Capitol on the eve of Jan 6 was necessary to ensure the certification of the 2020 election for Joe Biden.

J6 Shocker: FBI informants warned of armed violence, Antifa presence before riot, lawmaker reveals

Numerous confidential informants alerted the FBI prior to the Jan. 6, 2021 riot that there was the strong possibility of “armed” conflict at the U.S. Capitol, but that intelligence was not disbursed aggressively enough to force a change in security that fateful day, the first congressman to review those source reports tells Just the News.

Rep. Barry Loudermilk, R-Ga., the chairman of the House Judiciary subcommittee investigating Jan. 6 law enforcement failures, said he was floored to see the specificity of threats and the consistency in warnings that multiple confidential human sources provided the FBI and that the intelligence was serious enough that it should have prompted more security and possibly even a cancellation of President Donald Trump’s speech that day on the Ellipse. 

Loudermilk said the intelligence reports came weeks and days in advance of the Capitol riot from about two dozen informants embedded in radical groups around the country and that many of those informants came to the Capitol to keep assisting the FBI.

“I was surprised that we found this significant intelligence that was derived from these people embedded in these organizations,” he said Friday night in an expansive interview on the “Just the News, No Noise” television show. “There is no way that at least the Washington Field Office or the FBI headquarters was not aware that there were elements, not the entire crowd. There were elements of people coming to Washington, DC with the intent of attacking the Capitol of the United States.”

The Georgia lawmaker credited current FBI Director Kash Patel and Attorney General Pam Bondi for giving him access to the intelligence reports of the informants and said that it opened a whole new avenue of inquiry into whether some elements inside the FBI withheld intelligence that could have helped Capitol Police better prepare or repel the violence that occurred that day.

“We’re really having a hard time finding really any tangible reports that were sent to the Capitol Police or other agencies. And so my question is, what did they know? When did they know it, and what did they do with the information?” he said.

“I can tell you unequivocally, they had to know that there was something not only bad going to happen, but the reports coming from these confidential human sources, not just one, but multiple sources from multiple organizations across multiple field offices across the nation, were reporting the same thing,” he added.

Ed Martin Sends Heads Spinning After Posting Then Deleting Cryptic “P-I-P-E” Tweet Thread Amid BOMBSHELL J6 Pipe Bomber Suspect Reveal

Associate Deputy Attorney General Ed Martin appeared to break his silence on the January 6 pipebomber with mysterious social media posts on Friday as news broke that the January 6 pipebomb suspect was potentially identified. 

On January 5, 2021, a suspect allegedly planted pipe bombs near the RNC and DNC headquarters in Washington, DC, the night before the January 6, 2021, protests.

After the feds found the bombs on January 6– supposedly the day after they were planted–the US Capitol was shut down along with the counting of electoral votes by the US Congress. The bombs were safely detonated by a bomb squad on January 6, but the FBI never described the unexploded bombs that were planted the night before with a 60-minute kitchen timer as “viable,” fueling speculation that they were fake bombs and potentially planted by the feds.

Additionally, last year, TGP reported on a new video from January 6 showing a man exiting a DC Metro police vehicle carrying a bag toward the location of the DNC ‘pipe bomb’ at 12:51 pm on Jan. 6– just 15 minutes before the ‘explosive device’ was discovered by another officer. The witness who discovered the RNC pipe bomb said the 60-minute kitchen timer attached to it only had 20 minutes left, leaving more questions as to how the bomb could have been planted the night before.

The suspects were caught on video, but somehow American intelligence and the FBI never caught the person. They would have us believe that somebody left two pipebombs in the capital and mysteriously walked out of perhaps the most heavily surveilled city in America undetected.

But now, it seems a suspect has been identified as Capitol Police Officer turned CIA security employee, Shauni Kerkhoff, in the likely hoax by the feds.

Before the bombshell news broke, Ed Martin posted a cryptic message on his personal X account, writing in a thread, “P-I-P-E.”

Capitol Police Officer Shauni Kerkhoff Identified as J6 Bomber Based on Forensic Match — Testified to Firing Pepper Balls at J6 Crowd, Then Months Later Took a Security Job at the CIA

On January 5, 2021, a suspect planted pipe bombs near the Washington, D.C., RNC and DNC headquarters the night before the January 6, 2021, protests.

The culprit was caught on video but never caught by the FBI – the greatest intelligence service in the world.

The US Capitol was shut down on January 6 after the feds found the bombs near the Republican and Democrat Party headquarters.

As previously reported — A mysterious suspect planted two pipe bombs at the RNC and DNC DC Headquarters that were safely detonated by a bomb squad on January 6.

As The Gateway Pundit reported at the time and several times since Jan. 6 – Federal authorities shut down the counting of electoral votes by the US Congress when news broke that the “bombs” were found at the RNC and DNC headquarters.

It was NOT the J6 protesters storming the building that shut down the counting. It was news of the pipe bombs!

This is significant now that we can confirm that the bombs were planted by a female US Capitol Police Officer who later went to work security at the CIA headquarters.

Shauni Kerkoff went to work for the CIA headquarters after the January 6 riots. She later testified against J6 defendant Guy Reffitt, who was set up by the FBI, who wired his son in his own home.

Shauni reportedly scrubbed her social media accounts after joining the FBI.

Federal Prosecutors Open Corruption Investigation Into Democrat DC Mayor Muriel Bowser

Federal prosecutors have opened a corruption investigation into Washington DC’s Democrat Mayor Muriel Bowser.

According to The New York Times, the investigation has been underway for several months.

The investigation is focused on Bowser’s $61,000 trip to Dubai for a UN Climate Change conference in 2023.

Bowser’s trip was reportedly paid for by Qatar.

Earlier this year 7News filed a FOIA request to uncover who paid for Bowser’s trip to Dubai and said there is no record of a donation agreement between DC and Qatar.

“Through a Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) request, the 7News I-Team has uncovered who paid for the mayor’s trip to Dubai in 2023, and it ended up costing a foreign country $61,930 in travel expenses, but the District has no record of how the expenses broke down for the mayor or four staff members,” 7News reported earlier this year.

“D.C. has no record of a Donation Agreement between the District and Qatar for the trip — which is required by D.C. Code,” 7News reported.

The Times reported that the probe may be based on “potential violations of bribery or campaign finance laws.”

The New York Times reported:

Federal prosecutors have opened a corruption investigation into Mayor Muriel E. Bowser of Washington, examining a foreign trip she took with members of her staff that was paid for by Qatar, according to people familiar with the inquiry.

The investigation, which is being handled by the U.S. attorney’s office in Washington, has been underway for months, but could face significant hurdles because of the known facts of the case and recent turmoil inside the Justice Department.

This week, the F.B.I. agent who was leading the investigation was fired by the Trump administration for having taken part in a criminal inquiry into President Trump attempts to overturn the 2020 election

The public corruption unit inside the prosecutor’s office that would typically be responsible for pushing the case forward has also been badly damaged by a series of dismissals and resignations stemming from Mr. Trump’s efforts to seek revenge against Justice Department officials and his perceived enemies.

It remains unclear how far the investigation into Ms. Bowser, a Democrat who has served as Washington’s mayor since 2015, has advanced since it was opened. But the people familiar with the inquiry said it was based on potential violations of bribery or campaign finance laws. A spokesman for the U.S. attorney’s office declined to comment.

Bowser’s office denied any wrongdoing in a statement to WUSA9.

The story about the woman who found the first ‘J-6 DC pipe bomb’ is blowing apart…

The story about the woman who supposedly stumbled upon the first J6 DC pipe bomb is starting to collapse under its own weight. Like so much of January 6… from the “Fedsurrection” crawling with undercover agents to the conveniently placed “explosives” that never went off… this political soap opera, or “psyop,” if you will, raises far more questions than answers.

For those who’ve read our work, you already know we’ve spent years digging into the pipe bomb story and the government’s J6 narrative. What we uncovered is a laundry list of inconsistencies that any honest investigator would call “highly suspicious” at best. Revolver, along with other truth-seekers, was among the first to blow the lid off the pipe bomb hoax. We have been keeping up with the story and reporting on the latest twists and turns.

Revolver:

We have yet another humdinger of an update on this absurd pipe bomb hoax linked to J6. As Revolver readers know, years ago our investigative work helped blow the feds’ “official story” to bits and opened the door for others to dig deeper into this fanciful tale of some unknown “pipe bomber” lurking around DC in a hoodie. To this day, that person has mysteriously remained anonymous, even though you can see him (or her) prancing around on camera.

For crying out loud, the feds can pinpoint the nose hairs of a MAGA grandma from two states away, but they can’t find this so-called dangerous bomber? Please. This story has always been riddled with gaping holes. Those holes keep getting bigger, and at this point, they’re so big, you could drive a semi through them.

The latest twist may be the most insane yet. But before we get there, let’s remember what we recently shared with you… a receipt Julie Kelly uncovered that raised yet another red flag about the “official” story, this time involving the timing of when the so-called bombs were planted. It’s starting to look like the FBI has been lying even more than we thought.

[…]

…the pipe bombs might have been a “training exercise”? If that’s true, then why are there “wanted posters” for a phantom bomber?

You can read the entire piece here:

But now, new footage and testimony are making things even murkier. The woman at the center of the story, the one who supposedly discovered the first pipe bomb, has a timeline and a story that just don’t match the evidence.

HOLY SMOKES! The Pipe Bomb HOAX Story Implodes — Rep. Loudermilk Blows the Lid Off the Biden J6 Narrative!

In an exclusive new interview, Rep. Barry Loudermilk (R-GA) — Chairman of the New January 6 Select Subcommittee — tells GP reporter Cara Castronuova that key evidence surrounding the January 6 pipe bomber was “mysteriously disappeared” or “corrupted,” raising questions about what Biden’s FBI and Pelosi’s Select Committee were hiding from the American people.

“The story that we were fed all this time doesn’t hold a lot of water,” Loudermilk said. “None of it makes logical sense.”

**CROWD SOURCING ALL CITIZEN JOURNALISTS AND GP SLEUTHS! Please listen to the full interview and after hearing the evidence so far let us know in the comments or by contacting Cara Castronuova (below) your theory/instincts on the “Pipe Bomb Mystery”!

The “Pipe Bomb Mystery” That Never Added Up

Rep. Loudermilk revealed that the FBI’s own lab report confirmed there were explosives in the devices found near the RNC and DNC — but the story of when and how those devices were planted keeps changing.

According to Loudermilk, Secret Service bomb-sniffing dogs swept the DNC grounds the morning of January 6 — the day after the FBI claims a bomb was planted — and the dogs did not detect any device.

88-Year-Old Congresswoman Is Exposed For Having 7 No-Show Jobs

Eleanor Holmes Norton, Washington D.C.’s 88-year-old congressional delegate, claims to sit on multiple boards at prestigious institutions, but investigations reveal she hasn’t been active with them in years. Some of these positions no longer even exist according to a report by Luke Goldstein and Dan Boguslaw. 

According to her latest financial disclosure, Norton lists positions on roughly half a dozen boards. However, when contacted, three organizations reported no recent contact with her, while two confirmed their boards had been dissolved years ago.

These revelations follow a troubling NBC4 report that obtained a police document detailing how scammers posing as HVAC repairmen defrauded Norton of $4,400 for services never performed. The report also noted that Norton has a caretaker with power of attorney who reported the fraud.

Norton, once a prominent civil rights leader who participated in the 1963 March on Washington, now appears to have outdated information on her ethics forms, suggesting her staff may be resubmitting portions automatically without updates.

Goldstein and Boguslaw observed that the boards Norton lists include the executive committee of the Yale Law School Association, the board of trustees for Antioch College, the lawyers committee for civil rights, and advisory boards at Georgetown’s Women’s Law & Public Policy Fellowship Program, American University’s Women and Politics Institute, and the Sewall Belmont House.

Repeated inquiries to these organizations yielded concerning responses. Norton was a founding member of Georgetown’s Women’s Law & Public Policy Fellowship Program and regularly hosted fellows for Capitol Hill lunches. However, according to a spokesperson, she hasn’t done so since 2019.

American University’s response was even more revealing: “The Women & Politics Institute no longer has an advisory board,” they wrote, per Goldstein and Boguslaw’s report. 

Similarly, representatives for the Sewall-Belmont House explained that ownership transferred to the National Park Service in 2016, and the Park Service has no record of an advisory board or Norton’s current involvement with the site.

Two congressional sources confirmed Norton is largely absent from committee meetings and planning sessions. During the Trump administration’s deployment of trfcioops to Washington D.C., Norton was nearly invisible except for a generic condemnation statement.

Republican-led hearings on D.C. crime and public safety should have been Norton’s opportunity to defend her constituents, but she struggled through a prepared statement. Sources close to city council reported her “halting” performance immediately sparked discussions about organizing efforts to push her toward retirement.

Two city council members have since announced primary challenges: Robert White, the current at-large council member, and Brooke Pinto, the Ward 2 council member.

Despite these challenges, Norton has told reporters she intends to run for re-election at age 90, though her staff maintains she hasn’t decided.

Jeanine Pirro Unmasks Third Suspect in Murder of 21-Year-Old Capitol Hill Intern Eric Tarpinian-Jachym

DC US Attorney Jeanine Jeanine Pirro on Thursday unmasked the third suspect in the murder of 21-year-old Capitol Hill intern Eric Tarpinian-Jachym.

As previously reported, a 21-year-old intern for Republican Representative Ron Estes of Kansas was killed in late June in Washington, D.C..

Eric Tarpinian-Jachym, 21, who was a student at the University of Massachusetts Amherst, was shot and killed in Northwest Washington, D.C.

Police reported that the shooting occurred around 10:28 pm on June 30 when the suspects fired shots at Tarpinian-Jachym and two others, which included a 16-year-old male and an adult female.

Last month Mugshots of the two ‘juveniles’ who murdered Eric Tarpinian-Jachym were finally released this weekend after authorities hid their identities for months.

Fox News reported that investigators have stated the shooting was targeted, but Tarpinian-Jachym was not the intended target.

On Thursday it was revealed that police finally arrested the third suspect accused of killing Tarpinian and Zoey Kelley: 18-year-old Naqwan Lucas.

Jeanine Pirro went off on the Democrat DC Council for protecting young criminals.

“We live in a district where all three of these juveniles that I just mentioned are known to the juvenile court. That’s all I’m gonna say. I can’t say more and I want to,” Pirro said in a fiery rebuke.

“But I can tell you this that 2 innocent souls were taken from us in what I believe were predictable homicides based on the behavior of these individuals and the records that everyone knew about!” she said.

Pirro continued, “But the DC Council is more interested in protecting young criminals under the guise of protecting the innocence of youth. It’s time for them to start protecting the citizens of the district, because this is what we’re ending up with!”

“We’re having victims five blocks away, 79 rounds on the ground! This is normal behavior in DC! No more excuses from this council!” Pirro said.

A D.C. Man Was Arrested for Mocking National Guard Troops with Star Wars’ ‘Imperial March.’ Now He’s Suing.

A Washington, D.C., resident who was handcuffed and detained in September for mocking National Guard soldiers by playing “The Imperial March” from Star Wars on his cellphone is suing the soldiers and police officers for their stormtrooper-like behavior.

The American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) of D.C. filed a federal lawsuit today on behalf of Sam O’Hara, arguing that his detention violated his First and Fourth Amendment rights by cutting off his peaceful protest.

“The law might have tolerated government conduct of this sort a long time ago in a galaxy far, far away,” O’Hara’s lawsuit states. “But in the here and now, the First Amendment bars government officials from shutting down peaceful protests, and the Fourth Amendment (along with the District’s prohibition on false arrest) bars groundless seizures.”

After President Donald Trump deployed National Guard troops to D.C., O’Hara began following National Guard soldiers around playing “The Imperial March” on his cell phone as a form of protest. His lawsuit says O’Hara wanted “to encourage the public to view the deployment as a waste of tax dollars, a needless display of force, and a surreal danger.”

According to his lawsuit, on September 11, O’Hara was tailing four Ohio National Guard soldiers and doing his usual bit. 

“Less than two minutes after the protest began,” the lawsuit says, “Sgt. [Devon] Beck turned around and said, ‘Hey man, if you’re going to keep following us, we can contact Metro PD and they can come handle you if that’s what you want to do. Is that what you want to do?'”

O’Hara allegedly did not respond but continued to follow, at which point the Empire decided to strike back. 

Beck called the Metropolitan Police Department (MPD) of Washington, D.C. The lawsuit claims that shortly after several MPD cars arrived. The MPD officers allegedly accused O’Hara of harassing the soldiers, and they detained and handcuffed him.

When O’Hara argued that he was engaged in protest, one of the MPD officers allegedly responded, “That’s not a protest. You better define protest. This isn’t a protest. You are not protesting.”

However, recording and mocking law enforcement are both firmly protected by the First Amendment, as long as one doesn’t interfere with their duties.

Supreme Court Justice William J. Brennan Jr. wrote in 1987, in a ruling striking down a Houston ordinance that made it unlawful to oppose or interrupt a police officer, that “the freedom of individuals verbally to oppose or challenge police action without thereby risking arrest is one of the principal characteristics by which we distinguish a free nation from a police state.”

To put it another way, if you act like an autocratic villain when someone compares you to an autocratic villain, you just might be an autocratic villain.
