***BREAKING NEWS*** Accused DC pipe bomber told FBI he believed the 2020 election was stolen, sources say

[DemocratSinceBirth]

During interviews with the FBI, the suspect arrested in the pipe bomb probe told investigators that he believed the 2020 election was stolen, providing perhaps the first indication of a possible motive for the bombs placed near the DNC and RNC headquarters, people briefed on the matter told CNN.

Brian Cole Jr. spent hours with FBI investigators and 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.

The FBI and the Justice Department declined to comment for this story.

The FBI arrested Cole, 30, at home, where he lives with his parents, on Thursday. He was brought before Magistrate Judge Moxila Upadhyaya Friday afternoon for his first court appearance. He was wearing a tan jumpsuit and glasses as the judge read him his rights.

MAGA Maniacs doing maniacal things

[0rganism]

1. Going hard for that juicy pardon

He'll need to butter the biscuit a few more times, but this looks like a good start.

[Norrrm]

2. Little bitty details became clues when all put together.

[bucolic_frolic]

3. How did targeting both parties' HQ support his belief?

And the sense of entitlement involved in his actions.

[DemocratSinceBirth]

5. Ultra MAGA-hates RINOS and Democrats

[bucolic_frolic]

6. Yeah, you're right

but what pathetic thinking on his part. Bombs don't discriminate.

[moondust]

8. Anarchist?

Anarchists would naturally gravitate toward MAGA to first blow up "the system."

[W_HAMILTON]

13. MAGA hated the Republicans that certified the election.

So, no, you don't need to bring in anarchy to explain his actions.

[underpants]

4. MAGA on Twitter are already running away from this story.

Especially compared to when it broke. The mentions I’m still seeing are that Biden’s FBI sat on or hid evidence. This is being fueled by appearances BY Kash and Bongino on their media. Of course, Bongino basically admitted on Hannity last night that his wild conspiracies on this case when he was podcasting were because he was being paid for his opinion. He was lying.

Without being crass, this is really blowing up in their faces.

[Blues Heron]

7. If he waited 1 day he'd pe pardoned as soon as his conviction! D'oh! Jumped the gun bro!

[RedWhiteBlueIsRacist]

9. Trump/GOP hit the Southern Strategy jackpot: Convince a southern black fellow to plant bombs for the cause.

[Frasier Balzov]

14. It can't be the Lost Cause of the southern aristocracy.

He must come to it from some other angle.

Like Clarence Thomas.

[Kingofalldems]

10. MAGAts were sure this guy was a Democrat.

Nope, he's a filthy Trumper.

[RandiFan1290]

12. They also thought posting pictures of a Black man was some kind of defense.

Now they are silent

[AnnaLee]

11. Yea, considering the RNC was also targeted,

this excuse is for possible pardon purposes.
