Family of Pipe Bomb Suspect Brian Cole Breaks Silence — Issues FIRST Statement After Explosive Arrest
thegatewaypundit.com ^ | Dec. 4, 2025 | Jim Hᴏft

Posted on 12/05/2025 4:41:49 AM PST by V_TWIN

The suspect’s grandmother, Loretta, told The New York Post: “He’s almost autistic-like because he doesn’t understand a lot of stuff. I hope he is not talking.” She also alleged: “He’s very naive…He would not hurt a fly. He’s just not that kind of person. I don’t believe this at all. He’s not a terrorist.”

The grandmother told The Post that Cole works for the family’s bail bondsman company, “Brian Cole Bail Bonds.” She added that he also worked for DoorDash for a time. “He doesn’t have any ties to DC,” she added. “I don’t even know how they included him in this.”

The suspect’s step-grandfather, Earl Donnette, “said in a brief phone call to NBC News that he spoke with the FBI about his step-grandson,” the network reported. However, Donnette declined to make additional comment, NBC News reported, and Brian Cole Sr., Cole’s dad, declined to make any comment at all, NBC News reported.

I thought “puppies” is slang for a women’s breasts.

Mebe she, and someone else, was indeed playing with her puppies once or twice....

“Well, he seems to understand how to make a pipe bomb ok”

Highly unlikely he made it...probably just got duped into placing them there. The questions are who does he report to, and for that matter, why didn’t they ‘liquidate’ him long ago?

Time stamped video at 3am of her playing with her cats is fishy enough for me not to rule anything out with her.

“”Back to the article - this guy is a patsy. What happened to that gimpy female cop/now CIA who was shooting non-lethals at J6ers?””

***

Refresh my memory...what was the name of that black female cop? Was it Lila Morris? I suspect that she was rewarded for Boyland’s murder in some way.

“Exactly. He could be the guy or he could be a patsy to remove suspicion from the previously named FIB employee. I don’t have enough trust in the FIB to have an opinion either way.”

When it comes to the FBI, CIA, and Democrat political causes I have ZERO trust to have an opinion at this time. I will say, that either the family is lying (that he is a simpleton with Autistic like comprehension) or there is far more to the story.

Evidence, please.

It may well be, and I’d like to prove it.

I was MAGA long before Trump, having served under Reagan. The two stooges at the FBI and skunk Bondi are not MAGA, just bullshit artists. EVERY, let me repeat that, EVERY major Trump appointee (excepting these three and the deep stater at the CIA) have been the tip of the spear, advancing MAGA, like bulldogs tearing the flesh off the liberal’s rear ends. Even Education has done more than the FBI/DOJ! War Dept is blowing up druggies.

Just carrying out the regular duties of an agency, and handing out medals to the STAZI is not MAGA.Trump has had to do the heavy judicial lifting all by himself.

DOJ will be the nail in his political coffin for both terms.

Mark my words, Bonnie boy will return to blowhard radio with his crying towel filled with his tears over how hard it was, he was always impeded, all excuses for his incompetence.

His father’s bail bonds companies sure knew how to get illegals off and to sue govt for racial discrimination.
He might have been autistic but that doesn’t mean he was stupid

Bryan’s mom took Tylenol during her pregnancy. Be patient.

Those pipe “bombs” are the most cartoonish looking things straight out of Acme.

Rule 1) Don’t trust anything from the FIB
Rule 2) See rule 1

I go by gut feelings. It’s not an easy thing to prove.

Unfortunately, I know far too many families who, after assigning the “autism/spectrum” diagnosis on their dopey child, they immediately abandon discipline and that child becomes insufferably obnoxious or finds major trouble as he’s ignored and shelved away.

Cole, Jr’s father had hired Benjamin “Mr. Narrative” Crump as his lawyer. “He’s almost autistic-like because he doesn’t understand a lot of stuff” sure sounds like the work of a narrative machine.

Alternatively, naive, autistic misfits seem the go-to choice for government or political operatives to groom for doing their dirty deeds.

Haven’t seen anything about Brian Cole’s schooling, nothing from people who knew him, etc.

The report says he started buying materials for the bomb in 2019, so how could he have planned this for J5 of 2021?

Granny is a much FOS as Tiny Brian Autism is. The whole damn family needs to be deported before they’re standing in line waiting for reparations to buy another mansion.

I sure hope the parents didn’t use this guy as a pawn in some twisted political game.
