Congressional Republicans Demand Answers From FBI on J6 Pipe Bombs

Judiciary Committee Chairman Jim Jordan (R-OH), Rep. Bill Posey (R-FL), and Rep. Andy Biggs (R-AZ) said the “Committee requested the briefing after we received a whistleblower disclosure from a senior FBI official that raised questions and concerns about the “unusual” nature of the FBI’s investigative efforts and due to the FBI’s failure to adequately respond to Rep. Bill Posey’s September 2, 2021 request for a briefing on the investigation.”

“According to at least one report from a former FBI agent who worked on the investigation, the FBI linked the suspected pipe bomber to a MetroRail SmarTrip Card that the subject used to travel through the Washington Metro system to a stop in Northern Virginia. The FBI used security camera footage from the Northern Virginia Metro stop to identify the license plate of a car that the individual entered,” the letter added.
