MSM Stories About January 6 Pipe Bomber Skip Incredibly Obvious Question
Newsbusters ^ | January 7, 2022 | P.J. Gladnick

Posted on 01/07/2022 7:43:37 AM PST by PJ-Comix

On January 6, the media was chock full of stories about the events at Capitol Hill on the day of the riot. One potentially big event that could have overshadowed what happened at the Capitol building was a couple of pipe bombs planted near the Democratic National Committee and the Republican National Committee buildings. Fortunately neither bomb went off, but the mystery remains of who was the pipe bomber that still remains at large.

Because of the January 6 anniversary, several media outlets were speculating about the mystery of who the pipe bomber was and why the FBI has not found him despite conducting an intensive investigation. You can see stories about the investigation into the pipe bomber suspect at such sources as CBS News, the Associated Press (via PBS), and The Atlantic.

One thing the stories all have in common is what appears to be a lack of curiosity why the FBI hasn't used a very common investigative technique to identify the bomber. An example of this mysterious lack of curiosity was displayed by Atlantic writer Elaine Godfrey in her Thursday story, "The Capitol Hill Bomber Is Still At Large."

Somehow none of these "journalists" can seem to be bothered to pick up a phone and do what journalists used to do and CALL the FBI to ask why they "mysteriously" haven't performed a common investigative technique that they used to track the movements and phone numbers of grandmothers on 1/6 via their cell phone pings. The movements of anyone can be tracked via GPS yet the most wanted person from that day somehow escapes such scrutiny.

There's your problem right there.

"Journalists" no longer call the FBI, they now wait for the FBI to call them and leak whatever it is they're supposed to report.

... when your phone is turned 'on'.

Maybe he just turned it off temporarily?

“...Skip Incredibly Obvious Question...”

The MSM is to ‘journalism’ what miniature golf is to the PGA

The FIB agent forgot to arm the devices when he planted them. Of course they cant “find” him.

The video in the article shows him talking on the phone, so it wasn’t turned off. The article says there are SIX security videos showing him using his phone.

In addition to tracking his position, WHO was he talking to? His boss FBI HQ? “Hey, boss! Where should I put this bomb?”

Pipe bomber was seen on video using his cell phone at least 5 times. Plus they know the exact times and where he was while using the cell phone.

Well, it is beginning to look like the FBI IS involved in the entire incident.

Not everyone has a cell phone! If I was to plant a bomb why would I carry a cell phone?
Were they phony bombs?

It used to be you could turn your phone off and remove the battery to completely kill it.

From what I understand, and I could be wrong, modern phones can be turned off but, not being able to remove the battery, it still pings local towers even though not capable of communication (because it’s off).

From Wednesday's FEDERALIST:

Yet the lone example of a very clearly premeditated attempt at violence on Jan. 6 has been nearly completely wiped from the memory of the American public. The pipe bombs discovered at the RNC and DNC aren’t mentioned in the press’s “remembrance” coverage of the day, and the federal government has hardly offered any updates on the investigation since releasing footage of the suspect, who was covered head to toe in dark clothing. Even the Jan. 6 commission, which has gone to great lengths to obtain the phone records of private citizens, doesn’t seem interested in pursuing the person behind the explosives.

They want to investigate the pipe bomber with the same speed and efficiency they use to investigate Ray Epps, unless Epps is the pipe bomber and it all needs to be hidden.

Since one of the pipe bombs was left at the RNC, how come they can’t file try to compel the FBI to turn over evidence on the attacker’s phone and identity? They could get “conservative” outlets to point out the video of the bomber using the phone and press the question of how the FBI could possibly not know. Why don’t Republican Congressmen and Senators write to Wray and demand specific information?

I bet if Merrick Garland or Chris Wray are asked why no cell phone tracking was performed on the pipe bomber, they will mumble their usual evasive reply about “can’t comment on ongoing investigations.”

As we now know journalists or whatever the hell they really are, are in bed literally with the FBLie!

I hope that when Trump is back in office he listens to NO ONE and does what the resident did! FIRE EVERYONE!!!

BTW, right now a lot of leftists are claiming that Marjorie Taylor Greene is the pipe bomber. If that were true, the FBI would have found her from the get-go by using... cell phone tracking technology.
