We’re approaching the four-year anniversary of the infamous January 6 pipe bomb case, and still the FBI pretends to be clueless as to the identity of the suspect. In this same span of time, Revolver News is proud to have broken countless stories regarding the pipe bomb case that overwhelmingly point toward a government cover-up involving the FBI, ATF, the Secret Service, Capitol Police, and even Kamala Harris herself. The evidence is so damning that we have long referred to the January 6 pipe bombs as one of the two smoking guns of the Fedsurrection (the other smoking gun being...

WASHINGTON (AP) — The Jan. 6, 2021, insurrection at the U.S. Capitol played out for the world to see, but the House committee investigating the attack believes a more chilling story has yet to be told -- about the president and the people whose actions put American democracy at risk. With personal accounts and gruesome videos the 1/6 committee expects Thursday’s prime-time hearing to begin to show that America’s tradition of a peaceful transfer of presidential power came close to slipping away. It will reconstruct how the president, Donald Trump, refused to concede the 2020 election, spread false claims of...

Documentary The War on Truth challenges the official narrative of January 6, highlights alleged political manipulation, media distortion, and injustices against Capitol rioters. Rep. Troy Nehls of Texas is a former sheriff, Army National Guard Major, and the recipient of 2 bronze stars. Nehls vocally criticized Nancy Pelosi, the J6 Committee, and Capitol Police leadership for their handling of January 6. Soon after, under Nancy Pelosi’s authority, on November 20, 2021, Capitol Police illegally entered his office and photographed confidential legislative materials. Two days later, while Congress was in recess and Nehls’ office was supposedly vacant, they returned dressed as...

Members of the audience at a town hall glowered as former President Donald Trump described January 6 as a 'day of love' and tried to minimize the seriousness of the violent clash at the Capitol. Questioner Ramiro Gonzalez, a Republican construction worker from Tampa, said he wanted to give Trump 'the opportunity to try and win back my vote,' then issued a series of blunt statements during the Univision town hall this week... The Kamala Harris campaign later posted about it on X, in a post that zooms in on the puzzled expressions of audience members during the broadcast by...

While vice chairwoman of the House committee investigating the Jan. 6 Capitol riot, former Rep. Liz Cheney used an encrypted phone app to directly and indirectly communicate around defense counsel --and possibly ethical rules -- with a witness who would later change her testimony in shocking fashion, according to evidence obtained by congressional investigators and Just the News. Cheney’s Signal communications with witness Cassidy Hutchinson on June 6, 2022 and her friend, Alyssa Farah Griffin, were recently obtained by Rep. Barry Loudermilk, R-Ga., chairman of the House Administration oversight subcommittee that has identified significant problems with the original Democrat-run inquiry...

An FBI whistleblower has issued a chilling warning to the American people while testifying before U.S. Congress. Veteran FBI staff operations specialist Marcus Allen was called a witness during the House Judiciary Subcommittee on Weaponization of the Federal Government hearing on Wednesday. During a powerful and emotional statement to his fellow Americans, Allen urged “brothers and sisters of all faiths” to “pray” and stock up on food, water, guns, and ammunition. Fighting back tears, he also advised citizens to connect with “three to four friends in your neighborhood and promise to come to each other’s mutual aid.” Allen issued the...

In another interesting twist, a former U.S. Capitol Police officer made an announcement that could even further damage the already-weakened narrative put forth by the left regarding the J6 riot. Since House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-LA) decided to release all of the footage taken on Jan. 6, 2021, at the Capitol building, the riot has become a topic of conversation once again. Former U.S. Capitol Police Lieutenant Tarik Johnson, who was present at the Capitol on that day, has been challenging the government narrative on the incident and has indicated that the authorities on the ground were ill-prepared for what...

Shocking new details were released by Republicans on the House Oversight Committee on Friday of US military brass ignoring President Trump’s request for security on January 6th. (snip) Not only did General Milley ignore President Trump’s order to deploy the National Guard to the US Capitol on January 6, and not only did General Milley hide this important fact from investigators and the media, but General Milley also reportedly placed the US military under his control following the January 6 riot.Authors Bob Woodward and Robert Costa accused Milley in their book Peril of usurping President Trump’s constitutional powers as Commander...

In a major blow to the Biden-Harris Department of Justice (DOJ), nearly half of all “obstruction” charges related to January 6th, 2021 have been dropped. As Just The News reports, the DOJ’s decision comes after a major ruling by the Supreme Court in June, which ruled that the “obstruction of an official proceeding” charge could not be used against protesters who were at the Capitol that day unless it can be explicitly proven that they were trying to stop the certification of the electoral votes from the 2020 election. The DOJ’s announcement saw the charges dropped from 60 of the...

A Kentucky man who was the first known person to breach the U.S. Capitol on Jan. 6, 2021, has been sentenced to more than four years in prison. Michael Sparks, 47, was convicted in March by a federal jury in the District of Columbia on all six charges that he faced, including two felony offenses of obstruction of an official proceeding and civil disorder. On Aug. 27, U.S. District Judge Timothy Kelly sentenced Sparks to 53 months in prison and fined him $2,000.

A federal judge has ordered the release of a defendant convicted in the January 6 Capitol attack due to a Supreme Court ruling.The Supreme Court ruled in June that federal felony "obstruction of an official proceeding" charges are only valid if the government can prove that a defendant "impaired the availability or integrity" of documents or records rather than merely obstructing an official proceeding.Prosecutors had used the charge against hundreds of January 6 defendants under the assumption that it pertained to obstructing an official proceeding like the January 6, 2021, joint session of Congress, which was stormed by a mob...

'The suspect was hidden from camera view for nearly three minutes behind the blinding strobe headlights and emergency beams of the squad cars...' VIDEO AT LINK........ ===================================================================== (Ken Silva, Headline USA) Blaze Media has published possibly groundbreaking footage that shows the suspected J6 pipe bomber seemingly interacting with Capitol Police the night before the Jan. 6, 2021, Capitol Hill uprising. The footage reportedly comes from Capitol Police CCTV files recently made public by the Committee on House Administration Subcommittee on Oversight. The specific finding was made by the social media user “Armitas,” according to Blaze. “The alleged bomber emerged onto...

VIDEOUntil recently, former federal judge J. Michael Luttig's shtick has been to just idly sit back like a fat Buddha and sadly whine about how Donald Trump just keeps winning despite all the Lawfare tossed at him. However, the recent Supreme Court decision on presidential immunity appears to have broken poor Luttig to the extent that his shtick has switched up and he has gone full angry Drama Queen chock full of absolutely HILARIOUS overacting about how Trump has won yet again.

One of the great mysteries about the January 6, 2021, events is the lack of curiosity by the FBI about who planted the pipe bombs at the DNC and RNC headquarters. Amid all of the available CCTV video and surveillance technology exploited by the justice department, their transparent unwillingness to identify the pipe bomber has always been a dog that did not bark.The Occam’s Razor explanation for why DC and federal law enforcement have been incurious, points to law enforcement actually planting the bombs. New CCTV video seems to show exactly that.Shortly after 12:51pm a DC police SUV appears next...

For years we’ve been told an unidentified suspect planted pipe bombs at the RNC and DNC headquarters on January 5, the night before the Capitol riot. The FBI still ‘can’t find’ the person who planted the bombs. The US Capitol was shut down on January 6 after the feds found the bombs near the Republican and Democrat Party headquarters. But did this so-called suspect actually plant the bombs the night before? New video from January 6 shows a police officer carrying a bag toward the location of the DNC ‘pipe bomb’ at 12:51 pm on Jan. 6 – just 15...

A California man was sentenced to 20 years in prison for his role in the Jan. 6, 2021, riot at the U.S. Capitol, the second-longest sentence yet in hundreds of prosecutions of riot participants. David Nicholas Dempsey pleaded guilty in January to two counts of assaulting police officers with a dangerous weapon, landing him a sentence only surpassed by Proud Boys leader Enrique Tarrio's 22-year sentence, according to a report from the Guardian. Prosecutors accused Dempsey of being one of the most violent members of the mob that stormed the Capitol in protest of Congress certifying the 2020 election for...

We have long maintained that the two smoking guns of the January 6 Fedsurrection are the curious case of Ray Epps, on the one hand, and the RNC/DNC pipe bomb hoax, on the other. Our extensive reporting on the case of Epps enjoyed a natural assist from the fact that the now-iconic video of Epps urging the crowd to go “into the Capitol” and the subsequent chants from the crowd of “Fed, Fed, Fed” were seemingly tailor-made to go viral. While our ground-breaking reporting on January 6 had been no less comprehensive and no less damning, for the longest time...

A San Diego judge said that on Jan. 9, 2021, in Pacific Beach, antifa members "sought to crush, through the use of violence, the First Amendment rights of others" during a pro-Trump rally A San Diego judge sentenced eight defendants to prison and jail terms Friday for their roles in a series of politically motivated attacks during a January 2021 rally in Pacific Beach, calling the defendants “hypocritical” for professing to be anti-fascist while violently assaulting political opponents practicing free speech. San Diego Superior Court Judge Daniel Goldstein said that after presiding for years over the first-of-its-kind case alleging an...

Two lines from the opinion, where the Supreme Court justices address the trial judge in Trump's election interference case, are getting a lot of attention "And the parties and the District Court must ensure that sufficient allegations support the indictment’s charges without such conduct," they write. That means that once the official acts are stripped away, the trial court must decide if there's enough still in the indictment to go forward. They're basically warning that the case against Trump may fall apart. They also write: "Testimony or private records of the President or his advisers probing such conduct may not...

What Trump and His People Need to Know About January 6With the media currently in quiet retreat, Trump supporters have the opportunity to take the offensive. To do so, they need to know some basic facts about January 6.If Republicans are too timid to talk about January 6, former president Donald Trump is not. “They are victims of what happened. All they were doing is protesting a rigged election,” said former president Donald Trump of the J6ers on Sunday before adding, “There has never been people treated more horrifically than J6 hostages.”Quick to accuse Trump of dissembling, the major media...
