"One of Jan. 6’s enduring mysteries, that of who planted pipe bombs at the DNC and RNC, has, according to the DOJ, been solved. Prosecutors charged Brian Cole, a Virginia man, over the incident; per a Sunday filing in his case, he confessed to FBI agents after his arrest."

"But there’s another question that persists: how will the MAGAfied DOJ deal with Cole’s motive in the case?"

"The initial indictment was notably silent on what Cole may have believed he was accomplishing by allegedly planting pipe bombs on Jan. 5. An affidavit said agents had tied him to the area via cell phone tower tracking. His purchases in the days and weeks before included components that matched those used in the bombs."

"But, some skeptics noted after the initial charges dropped, the initial charges omitted any evidence the FBI may have collected around Cole’s communications before Jan. 6, or any claim around Cole’s motive."
