       The #FBI arrested #BrianCole, 30, on Thursday on charges that he planted pipe bombs near the RNC & DNC headquarters the night before the #Jan6 2021 US Capitol #insurrection.Cole spent hours with FBI investigators & made multiple statements, the sources said. Dan Bongino, deputy FBI director, told Fox News on Thursday that the FBI had interviewed the suspect at length, but didn’t elaborate.#law #criminal #Trump #BigLie #StochasticTerrorism #incitement #NotAllSpeechIsFree

       The bureau believes the man compiled bomb-making supplies for months before leaving the viable explosive devices outside of the political offices.Cole is charged with transporting an explosive device in interstate commerce & attempted malicious destruction by means of fire & explosive materials.He is expected to appear in court Friday afternoon & has not yet entered a plea.#law #criminal #Trump #BigLie #StochasticTerrorism #incitement #NotAllSpeechIsFree #BrandenburgTest

       @Nonilex after exonerating all the ilk that stormed the Capitol to denounce the democratic process, singling out one guy that planted bombs that didn't work seems ridiculous. Had he tamped his enthusiasm a bit and placed them on the day everyone else was beating cops over the head with Old Glory he'd be joining ICE with the rest of America's finest.

       @cmthiede Oh, & he’s black of course. Trump loves a lynching.

       @Nonilex Apparently the FBI says they have identified him using cellphone data. Hopefully this is real, this lose end has always been ugly. I would like to know who he was working with— who did he talk to online?Some people are surprised he’s a black guy but there have always been a few like him in that movement.  It could be awkward if he’s friends with some of the people who have since been pardoned.

       @futurebird @Nonilex Even worse, it seems to me that Trump has already pardoned him. Surely his lawyers will say so. This spectacle is baffling.

       @gleick @futurebird I don’t think Trump has pardoned him. He placed the pipe bombs on January 5th, 2021, NOT on the 6th.Trump’s pardons were specifically for actors & actions on the 6th at the Capitol.

       @Nonilex @futurebird I guess you're right. Also the pardon may apply only to people who had already been convicted.

       @Nonilex @futurebird Still, I think his lawyers would have a strong case that “all other individuals convicted of offenses related to events that occurred at or near the United States Capitol on January 6, 2021” includes the planter of bombs in preparation for or in support of the deliberately vague “events.”
