Reaction to Dan Bongino's Tip Moment

Hour 3 of the Clay Travis & Buck Sexton Show delivers explosive analysis of breaking news surrounding the arrest of the alleged January 6th pipe bomber, Brian Cole Jr., after a five-year investigation. Clay and Buck dissect the FBI press conference led by Attorney General Pam Bondi and FBI Director Cash Patel, highlighting the stunning revelation that no new evidence was needed—only renewed focus and leadership under the current administration. This raises critical questions about why the Biden-era DOJ and FBI deprioritized the case despite branding January 6th as the “darkest day since the Civil War.” The hosts argue that political motivations may have sidelined the investigation because the suspect reportedly has ties to Antifa, contradicting the long-standing narrative that the Capitol riot was solely driven by MAGA extremists.

The hour features a detailed review of the criminal complaint and affidavit, which alleges Cole purchased bomb-making materials with his own credit cards and was tracked via cell phone data near the RNC and DNC on January 5th, 2021. Clay and Buck emphasize how these findings could reshape the January 6th narrative, undermining claims of a purely right-wing insurrection and exposing potential cover-ups within the prior FBI leadership. They also explore broader implications, including whether this case signals systemic bias in federal law enforcement and the possibility of additional charges or co-conspirators.

Julie Kelly, one of the most prominent journalists covering January 6th, joins the show to provide expert insight. She calls the arrest a “massive scandal,” asserting that the FBI’s decision to shelve the investigation for years was deliberate and politically motivated. Kelly warns of significant legal ramifications, noting that exculpatory evidence was withheld from January 6th defendants while the DOJ pushed an insurrection narrative. The discussion also touches on Kamala Harris’s proximity to one of the pipe bombs, raising further questions about security lapses and media silence.

Listeners weigh in with fiery talkbacks, reinforcing skepticism about the DOJ’s priorities and echoing frustration over selective enforcement. Clay and Julie conclude by examining the affidavit’s granular details—credit card purchases, cell tower pings, and surveillance footage—while stressing the need for transparency and accountability as this case unfolds.
