WASHINGTON -- Two pipe bombs left at the offices of the Republican and Democratic national committees, discovered just before thousands of pro-Trump rioters stormed the U.S. Capitol, were actually placed the night before, federal officials said Friday.
The FBI said the investigation had revealed new information, including that the explosive devices were placed outside the two buildings between 7:30 p.m. and 8:30 p.m. on Jan. 5, the night before the riot. The devices were not located by law enforcement until the next day.
It is not clear whether that means the pipe bombs were unrelated to the next day’s riot or were part of the riot planning. Both buildings are within a few blocks of the Capitol.
The incident has been particularly concerning for law enforcement as officials step up security preparations ahead of the Senate’s impeachment trial of former President Donald Trump. For weeks, investigators have been worried about the potential for attacks on soft targets in the nation’s capital.
U.S. Capitol Police and agents from the FBI and Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives were called to the Republican National Committee’s office around 12:45 p.m. on Jan. 6. About 30 minutes later, as the agents and bomb technicians were still investigating at the RNC, another call came in for a second, similar explosive device found at the Democratic National Committee headquarters nearby.

FBI?
One of those agents must have tripped over one.
People who are there every day.

Trump has a Time Machine. So he’s still guilty.
Wait. I thought they released security camera shots of suspect
Wouldn’t it have the date And time stamped on it somewhere
>>Who plants pipe bombs early in the evening? Wouldn’t it be better in the middle of the night?<<
If you’re seen creeping around at 3am, then it’s more obvious that you’re up to something, than if you’re walking by at 7pm.

Look for another incident once this farce begins,
that is what they are building toward, just an
excuse for further arrests.
Yes, they were planted— and the word is they were planted by demonrat embeds FROM THE FBI! How about those apples. The “take a knee” crowd of worthless scuz effin bee eyeballs!
There is more than just scuttlebutt on this circulating. Someone may spill if they live so long. Nanzi and AntiFA have a hand in this through their approved cutout agents... any say the name “Sullivan” the Olympic Skater AntiFA “plant” in the Rotunda? They let him in to instigate and let him leave and then didn’t arrest him for some time- had to be shamed into it and they released him....again!
Were these functional devices or duds?
Both were activated, and real bombs. Camera has a photo of the supposed perp.
There was one at DNC HQ and one at RNC HQ in DC.
Bombs at DNC AND RNC hdqtrs. Anarchists. Sounds like BLM/ANQUEEFA’s aka DNC/Soreass’ puppets MO.
They were unaccountably inoperative at the time.
Maybe we should nickname the perp “The Bipartisan Bomber.”
Exactly. The FBI has known this and did not release it.
Could be multiple reason, some legitimate and some nefarious.
If they had gone off-— anyone there would have, terrible been bi-parted as they departed (terrible way to think of it, but pipe bombs create horrific injuries equal to a howitzer fragmented shell).
Of course they were, probably planted by the FBI who also made the cameras inoperable!!!
Pro Trump rioters LOL, LOL, LOL!!!!
