The person who was dropping off the bombs has looked to be a female about the size of LB. A dollar to a donut it is.

And it's the right time frame

And that person stopped to use their phone, so unless it was a throw-away, there's a trail. If it is LB, she helpfully made a video about carrying her gun in DC where she states her height (5'1") and lets everyone get a good look at her walk- even though it is in heels and a bit exaggerated, you can observe things like the length of her stride and her arm swing. In most public videos she wears high heels or platform shoes, occasionally cowboy boots, so her walk would be a bit different in sneakers.

It probably was a throw away. The bomber looked like they were wearing someone else's shoes that were too big, even making them stumble at one point. I wouldn't doubt if the shoes belonged to one of Boebert's sons. They don't seem like a style of shoe that a grown man would typically wear.

The bomber also walked with the same sort of arrogant looking strut and stood with their legs apart like Boebert does.

Exactly. I have said for months that the person placing the bombs was a female, and Bobert has the same build as the culprit

Have you come across her Explore Talent photos and profile yet? Or photos of her hugging Ted Cruz shortly after she ambushed Beto O'Rourke at a Colorado event during his 2020 primary run for POTUS? Ted Cruz supported Boebert's political start --

But Lauren Boebert is def part of the Explore Talent to GOP Firebrand pipeline

I am surprised that video from inside the Capital is not yet available to definitively say whether Rep Boebert led a Jan 2021 tour of the building prior to the insurrection and if so who participated.

My thinking as well

Me too.

As others have commented, where is the security video from the “tours”? Has it been destroyed? That would require complicity with Capitol Security, which honestly would not surprise me.

WOW! I don't know why your reporting and collection of documentation hasn't been called up with you to testify yet. Amazing reporting and I just can't wait for the next shoe.

It is hard for me to believe that Boebert and Greene did not have ties to Trump World before getting elected. I think they were groomed and elected for their House roles in 1/6/21. Something very suspious about why Trump with ALL the pre 1/6 meetings would trust them when they were such newbies.

Cuz yr correct; the new Congressional Critters were picked for their rôles and known quantities

Isn't there a video of Greene at the Willard Hotel Jan 5th? I've read so many of these reports I could be mixing up the details.

Never thought of that, but makes alot of sense.

I think Boebert is potentially a second or third gen Russian operative. Here's why: 1) She acts like one. 2) There's no mention of who her bio father is. She was born in FL (where Russian immigrants have been entering the US to birth their babies for decades) to a single mother... 3) A single mother who on Jan 8, immediately after learning of the reconnaissance tour, I stalked her family on FB. On her mother's (Shawn Bentz) FB page, there were only four pages listed under her 'Liked Pages'. They were the NRA, the RNC, Kevin McCarthy, and none other than Vladimir Putin! I took a screenshot but didn't know how to archive it. In the days that followed there was more attention from the media about Boebert's role and the tour and about her mother's racist Tic Toc rant, and I looked at her FB page again and she had hidden or deleted her liked pages.

For those who have watched the Americans TV series inspired by real events, I think that Lauren Boebert is like a white trash equivalent of Paige.

Interesting. So where was her mother who is heavier but looks like her and is about the same height on Jan. 5 and 6? see this article about her putative father https://melmagazine.com/en-us/story/lauren-boebert-stan-lane-paternity-dispute

Very Interesting!

IMHO She seems like someone who would go on a bomb drop spree if asked to. She leans towards violence with her words.

I'm not a Psychiatrist/Psychologist qualified to diagnose anyone, including LB, but from her past & present manipulative, deceptive behavior she sounds psychotic. What's really sad is she serves in Congress which represents the American people & makes our nation's laws.

I'm praying Biden/Garland are paying attention to the investigations and/or findings of the Jan. 6 Select Committee, the US Senate Judiciary Committee as well as investigations in GA & NY involving Trump.

Expand full comment

I'm trying to figure out how did that psychopath get elected to public office, much less Congress? With her & her hubby's past arrest records, I would think that would AT LEAST disqualify her from public office; Lord, help this country.

Seth--do u think Garland is going to arrest Trump & his Jan. 6 conspirators (including some elected officials) prior to the 2022 elections? If so, where would u house them, Guantanamo Bay, Cuba?

What would a real FBI Director have done in a timely way?

Such great detail & reporting. Boy do I want you called to testify.

Have always thought it was Boebert’s skanky profile planting the the pipe bomb.

Funny that crossed my mind the first time I saw the video too. It's definitely a woman in my opinion.

Look at the FBI videos:

https://www.facebook.com/CBSNews/videos/776450829925059/

In the first scene, the person adjusts their glasses several times (you can see the glare at about -1:50), and through the video; has enough stuffing in the hood of the sweatshirt to stuff her long hair; carries the backpack in her dominant right hand (as LB has demonstrated in her "walking to work video); trips once in boy's shoes before figuring out how to wear them, and places the backpack against a wall rather tentatively, fussing with its position. In the 7:52 DNC scene, after sitting down on a bench, she does a "bra strap adjustment" on both arms and the hoodie, fully stuffed is evident. The very last clip shows her raising both arms (another bra-strap adjustment) while walking on the sidewalk.

I think it's funny that Boeberts nickname is "Qbert", an 80's video game reference. Anyway, great reporting, Seth.

Great article Seth. Thank you for your incredible work to preserve our democracy with the truth.

*I remain baffled by Boebert’s odd post-insurrection photo-op with Pompeo, she posted on 1/10/21. How/why?

Insurrection Eve mystery person that planted bombs at DNC/RNC?

The person who dropped off the pipebombs has a spinal defect, likely mild spina bifida.
