## Resource

As more people started asking questions about the two pipe bombs that were placed around the Capitol on January 6, 2021, the FBI was quick to arrest a suspect and declare the case closed. But does the evidence against alleged bomber Brian Cole hold up under scrutiny? Matt Kibbe is joined by Blaze News journalist Steve Baker to go over the facts of the case, all of which seem to paint Cole as an unlikely perpetrator. Is it possible that this young man with predictable habits and a learning disability is nothing more than a convenient scapegoat?
