"Don't say it won't happen, folks. Just a day after the FBI announced the arrest of the infamous Jan. 6, 2021 pipe bomb suspect, who planted two explosive devices at the Democratic National Committee and Republican National Committee that failed to detonate as apparently intended-but nevertheless added to the chaos of the insurrection and law enforcement response that fateful day-said suspect has lined up a plausible reason to think he could also be let off the hook by the country's capricious Pardoner in Chief."
"That's reportedly what Cole Jr. told the FBI in questioning yesterday as he confessed to planting the devices, according to NBC's two unnamed "people familiar with the matter." The FBI itself has not yet publicly cited a motive for the suspect, but their silence and lack of immediate blame on Democratic agitators, "antifa" networks, etc. can be construed as evidence suggesting that NBC's sources are likely credible-and"
Brian Cole Jr., 30, was arrested by the FBI for allegedly planting two explosive devices at the Democratic National Committee and Republican National Committee on Jan. 6, 2021. The devices failed to detonate but contributed to chaos during the Capitol insurrection and law enforcement response. He faces federal charges of transporting an explosive device and attempted malicious destruction by means of explosive materials and is scheduled for formal arraignment. Cole reportedly told FBI agents that he believed 2020 election conspiracy theories and confessed to planting the devices, according to unnamed sources. The FBI has not publicly confirmed a motive, and concerns about a potential presidential pardon are raised given perceived political alignment.
