J6 Gender Bender: FBI Clears Female Suspect with a Puppy Video, then Quietly Arrests Male Suspect in Pipe Bomber Case
Epoch Times Investigative Reporter Joshua Philipp and former CIA Operations Officer, AI Expert Adam Hardage available
UPDATE: NBC News Identifies Pipe Bomber as Brian Cole
Suspect arrested in January 5 DC pipe bomb case
J6 or JSex Pipe Bomb?
The investigation into the January 6 pipe bomber has taken a dramatic—and deeply troubling—turn that raises more questions than it answers. Nearly five years have passed since the bombs were planted outside the RNC and DNC, despite the FBI possessing detailed video of the suspect from day one. Last month, national attention spiked when a forensic gait-analysis expert identified a 94% match between the bomber and a female Washington Metro Police officer, based on height, gait, and posture. Yet within weeks, that officer was suddenly removed from the suspect list after authorities cited a video allegedly showing her playing with her puppies at the exact time the bombs were placed.

Now the public learns that the FBI has arrested a male suspect—unnamed at the time of this document. After nearly half a decade, the opacity is inexplicable. For many Americans watching the shifting narrative, the handling of the case feels less like law enforcement and more like information manipulation.
This is precisely why Adam Hardage and Joshua Philipp offer critical, timely insight.
Both Hardage and Philipp were in Washington, D.C. on January 6 and bring firsthand perspective on the environment, security posture, and the anomalies of that day. As an award-winning investigative journalist for the Epoch Times, Philipp has studied the pipe-bomb case extensively and can contextualize the discrepancies, reversals, and unexplained investigative decisions. His expertise gives audiences clarity on what is known, what remains hidden, and what doesn’t add up.
Hardage—Air Force veteran, former CIA Operations Officer, and author of Alpha Blueprint—brings a national-security lens and a powerful warning: the next generation will be forced to navigate unprecedented waves of AI-driven misinformation, disinformation, and narrative distortion. The shifting story of the pipe-bomb suspect is a textbook example of why Hardage says Americans must sharpen their ability to detect coordinated deception.
Together, Philipp and Hardage can break down what this newest development really means, why the FBI’s secrecy is raising bipartisan alarms, and how information warfare—human and artificial—may already be reshaping the public’s perception of January 6.
This story is evolving quickly. Their combined expertise makes them essential voices right now.
Hardage and Philipp are available for interviews and on-camera discussion.
