CHEYENNE, Wyo. (AP) — Investigators in Wyoming sought to identify two men they believe left a homemade bomb in front of the state Capitol, causing the building’s evacuation after a passerby found the object and brought it inside. The bomb, at a time of heightened political angst in the U.S., put the sleepy capital of the least-populated state on edge for awhile, with drones overhead and officers with bomb-sniffing dogs combing the Capitol grounds. But a day later, things appeared back to normal. No security was visible at the 135-year-old, sandstone building where visitors have always been able to more...

In an exclusive new interview, Rep. Barry Loudermilk (R-GA) — Chairman of the New January 6 Select Subcommittee — tells GP reporter Cara Castronuova that key evidence surrounding the January 6 pipe bomber was “mysteriously disappeared” or “corrupted,” raising questions about what Biden’s FBI and Pelosi’s Select Committee were hiding from the American people. VIDEO AT L:INK................ “The story that we were fed all this time doesn’t hold a lot of water,” Loudermilk said. “None of it makes logical sense.” **CROWD SOURCING ALL CITIZEN JOURNALISTS AND GP SLEUTHS! Please listen to the full interview and after hearing the evidence so...

Now that the curtain’s getting pulled back more and more on the January 6th setup… and yes, the infamous “Pipe Bomb” hoax that aged about as well as gas-station sushi, the bombshells are coming in fast and furious style. Most of us already knew J6 was less “insurrection” and much more “fedsurrection,” and that the pipe bomb story was a political fairytale. So, while a lot of people are done with bombshells and ready for indictments, it’s still worth connecting the dots. Because, let’s face it, if there’s one person who wants justice more than anyone, it’s President Trump… the...

EXCLUSIVE: The FBI responded on Saturday to a report that 274 plainclothes agents were at the U.S. Capitol riot on Jan. 6, 2021, clarifying the role of bureau personnel while still blasting former Director Christopher Wray.While the agents were on hand, they were sent in after the riot had begun to try to control the unruly crowd, officials told Fox News Digital. That is not the proper role of FBI agents, and Wray was not forthcoming about what happened when he testified numerous times on Capitol Hill, Director Kash Patel said."Agents were sent into a crowd control mission after the...

A friend of mine sent me an email this morning asking why President Trump didn't simply "override" Speaker Pelosi and send in the National Guard on January 6, 2021....

Trump’s decision to send the National Guard into Washington, D.C., will be defended as a matter of national security. History teaches us this is not about protecting the people at all. The National Guard was deployed to protect the political class from the people. The United States is now following the same path we have seen throughout history. In ancient Rome, once the Praetorian Guard was stationed in the city to guard the emperor, it became the power behind the throne. Their loyalty was to themselves and the politicians in control at the moment. The guard was not sent to...

Nancy Pelosi is probably kicking herself over her most recent X post, because it opened a can of worms she never wanted spilled. But TDS got in the way, and she couldn’t help herself. In a desperate effort to smear President Trump’s plan to clean up DC’s deadly streets, Pelosi took to X and claimed that Trump “delayed” deploying the National Guard on January 6… a claim that instantly blew back on her, in a big way, dredging up an old debate about her role that day. ... But even worse for Pelosi was the blistering response from former Capitol...

A former U.S. Capitol Police officer and Metropolitan Police officer suing to force the installation of a Jan. 6 memorial for law enforcement, a plaque authorized by Congress in 2022, slammed court filings from two convicted and pardoned rioters who the officers say are seeking to "relitigate the reality" of that fateful day. Harry Dunn and Daniel Hodges' lawsuit has a straightforward purpose: compelling Architect of the Capitol Thomas Austin to put up the plaque as Congress expressly intended. Brian Mock and Cindy Lou Young, two of the many Jan. 6 convicts that received pardons from President Donald Trump, have...

Attorney General Pam Bondi has fired more than 20 Department of Justice employees who were involved in investigating the January 6 protest and the case regarding President Donald Trump’s handling of classified documents, according to a new report. On Friday, at least 20 employees from Special Counsel Jack Smith’s team were let go, including two prosecutors, seven support staff members, and U.S. Marshals, according to reports from Reuters and Axios. Per Axios: The firings are part of a massive purge aimed at clearing DOJ of attorneys and support staff who took part in Special Counsel Jack Smith’s prosecution of Trump...

A nice post from my sister of the Idaho State Capital. https://imgur.com/KEqlcCV I hope a savvy Freeper will post the Picture. "I took this photo a couple of weeks ago in the Idaho state capital building- a building this is open to the public without metal detectors and security. It is magnificent and a reflection of the beauty and grandeur of the United States. Happy Independence Day America"

The Democratic Doctors Caucus was interrupted by a barrage of tourists during a press conference outside the office of House Speaker Mike Johnson, R-La., on Wednesday.(snip) The Democratic Doctors Caucus, comprised of the six Democratic physicians serving in the House of Representatives, planned a press conference in Statuary Hall, a room down the hall from the House speaker's office. Apparently noticing the large gaggle of reporters staking out Johnson's office amid last-minute member holdout negotiations, the caucus moved their press conference to right outside the speaker's office. Donning their white coats in the crowded hallway, the Democratic doctors began their...

At Stage 2, Bart had been receiving treatment through the VA until he was arrested for January 6th. He was left in his cell without his medication or any form of help with the illness he had. Both the DC Gulag and the VA have been criticized for inadequate healthcare, and hopefully, they will both be held accountable. Over the two years that Bart languished in the Gulag, he worsened physically as the cancer began to spread. He was continually denied treatment for his cancer, as other J6ers had also been denied treatment for their ailments. In the last few...

Two police officers who defended the Capitol during the Jan. 6, 2021 attack filed a federal civil lawsuit, asking a judge to order the hanging of a plaque to honor police heroes who protected the Capitol, lawmakers and staff from rioters. The lawsuit cites a 2022 law signed by President Biden that required the honorary plaque be hung by March 2023. The plaque has been completed and in storage since at least last year, but GOP House Speaker Mike Johnson has not committed to installing it at the Capitol. The dispute over the plaque has angered victims and inflamed a...

CLAIM: “On January 6th…we begged the President of the United States to send in the National Guard. He would not do it.” VERDICT: FALSE. Trump offered the National Guard ahead of time, but Democrats refused. Former Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) claimed Tuesday in a news conference on Capitol Hill that President Trump refused to send the National Guard to protect the Capitol from rioters on January 6, 2021. She made her remarks among other California Democrats, who called on the President to withdraw the Guard and the Marines from L.A. Some, such as L.A. Mayor Karen Bass,...

A bombshell report from the office of U.S. Inspector General Michael Horowitz confirmed that the FBI was present and involved in the events of January 6, 2021, with IG Horowitz saying that the initial reports from the FBI related to January 6 were “inaccurate” and not reflective of what actually transpired at the U.S. Capitol. For context, in a press release from December 12, 2024, the U.S. Department of Justice Office of the Inspector General, Michael E. Horowitz, confirmed that after a thorough review, it was clear that the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) was involved in responding to the...

I picked a J6 case at random to review because I wanted to see how bad it was. And let me tell you the random one I picked did not disappoint. This defendant went into the capital and walked down the corridor. He was not accused of violence. He did not break anything. He did not hurt anybody. He was sentenced by a jury to 19 months in prison he was overcharged by the prosecutor to the point where it should be called malicious prosecution, and a judge rubber stamped every single thing the prosecutor asked for. The most egregious...

US government is set to return nearly $63,000 to infamous J6er John Sullivan, who also goes by Jayden X. Sullivan reportedly made the money from his filming of the protests and rioting that day. ... Antifa-BLM organizer John Sullivan was sentenced in April 2024 to six years in prison for his actions on January 6, 2021, at the US Capitol. Antifa-Insurgence leader John Earl Sullivan was arrested in Utah after the US Capitol riots. As reported previously, Antifa protester John Sullivan was caught on video posing as a Trump supporter during the rioting at the US Capitol on January 6th....

Capitol Police arrested a staffer for Sen. Cory Booker who was carrying a gun Monday evening, hours after the New Jersey Democrat kicked off a marathon “filibuster” speech in the upper chamber. “Yesterday afternoon a Member of Congress led an IDed staff member around security screening at the Hart Senate Office Building. Later that evening, outside the Senate Galleries, the IDed staff member — who is a retired law enforcement officer — told our officers he was armed,” a rep for US Capitol Police said in a statement Tuesday. “The staff member, 59-year-old Kevin A. Batts of New Jersey, was...

Blaze News’ Steve Baker exposes Aaron Black, who he has dubbed “Pelosi’s precious,” for allegedly lying about his role at the Capitol on January 6, 2021. Did Black, known to associates as Nancy Pelosi’s “fixer,” orchestrate agitators at the riot and skew the narrative to benefit Democrats? And did he lie about his presence at the Capitol during the riot? Baker joins Glenn Beck (‪@glennbeck‬) to break down the findings recorded in a Blaze News exclusive report, including Black’s history of fomenting unrest using CIA-style color revolution tactics and his deep connections to Pelosi.
