Julie Kelly: The Government's Story on the January 5th Pipe Bombs Doesn't Make Sense

Did I just see the same cat cross the room twice? I think the Matrix is resetting itself.

The newly disclosed video shows a dark SUV pulling up to the headquarters of the Democratic National Committee in Washington, D.C., at 9:44 a.m. on Jan. 6, 2021. It sits for several minutes until a uniformed man with a bomb-sniffing dog enters from the right and steps up to the vehicle. The driver complies with his command, the dog sniffs inside and outside the car which is soon allowed to enter the parking garage. The man and his dog exit back to the right.

This scene is unremarkable except for one detail: The uniformed man and his trained canine came within a few feet of where a plainclothes Capitol Police officer would soon discover a pipe bomb that had been planted there the night before. The bomb, which the FBI has described as viable and capable of inflicting serious injury, along with a similar one found at the headquarters of the Republican National Committee, would appear to be the most overt act of violence perpetrated on Jan. 6.

Responding to the video discovered by this reporter, Rep. Barry Loudermilk, the Georgia Republican who chairs the House Oversight Committee subcommittee now conducting a separate inquiry into Jan. 6, asked, "How could a bomb-sniffing dog miss a pipe bomb at the DNC? We'll add this to our long list of unanswered questions and continue getting to the truth."

The failure of the Secret Service detail assigned to Vice President-Elect Kamala Harris, who was inside DNC headquarters when the bomb was discovered, to find the device before her visit.

The fact that the bomb at RNC headquarters was discovered by a government contractor with ties to the FBI.

That law enforcement officials repeatedly described the bombs as "highly dangerous" but also said they couldn't have detonated on their own because of their cheap kitchen timers.

That cell phone data that might help locate the perpetrator has been deemed corrupted.

That the FBI's geofence warrant to obtain cell phone data from Google gives no indication the warrant included the Capitol Hill neighborhood on the night of Jan. 5 -- the time and location the pipe bombs were apparently planted.

Boy they're really keen to find this Dangerous Right-Wing Bomber, aren't they?

That the FBI assistant director leading the stalled investigation had previously been in charge of the investigation into a kidnap plot against Michigan Gov. Gretchen Whitmer in which the bureau tried to get alleged conspirators to build bombs.

That an FBI whistleblower has testified he was told the bombs were inoperable -- a claim that seems supported by video showing authorities allowing children to cross the street toward the DNC bomb after it was discovered.

...

The greatest mystery may be why official Washington has lost interest in this alleged act of domestic terrorism. In the three years since Jan. 6, the DOJ has conducted what Attorney General Merrick Garland describes as a criminal investigation proceeding at an "unprecedented speed and scale" into the protests. Casting a wide dragnet for Capitol protesters across the country, federal and local authorities in Washington have tracked down and prosecuted more than 1,300 defendants, almost all of whom were unarmed, including 62 individuals so far this year.

Yet the perpetrator of what could have been the only deadly attack by a civilian that day appears to have vanished without a trace. He or she also seems to have slipped down the official memory hole. Although the Washington FBI field office recently issued a statement saying the "suspect may still pose a danger to the public or themselves" and upped the reward to $500,000, Washington appears to have lost interest in the pipe bomb whodunnit.
