Blaze: Rightwing Conspiracy Rag
Funny how all those right-wing conspiracies eventually prove true...
Via Copilot...
The claim that Blaze journalist Steve Baker has identified the January 6 pipe bomber as former Capitol Police officer Shauni Kerkhoff is highly controversial, unverified, and not confirmed by federal authorities. It originates from Blaze Media reporting and has been amplified in partisan outlets, but the FBI has not substantiated it.
📌 What the Claim Is.
Steve Baker (Blaze Media) published an investigative report alleging that Shauni Kerkhoff, a former U.S. Capitol Police officer, is the person seen planting pipe bombs near the RNC and DNC headquarters on January 5, 2021.
The report claims forensic analysis and intelligence sources pointed to her, noting she later worked in security for the CIA.
Supporters of the theory frame it as evidence of a “Fedsurrection,” suggesting federal involvement in January 6.
⚖️ Current Status.
The FBI has not confirmed or denied the identification.
As of now, the pipe bomber case remains officially unsolved. Despite extensive surveillance footage and investigations, no suspect has been publicly named by law enforcement.
The Blaze’s reporting is independent and partisan, not an official finding. Other outlets covering the claim (BizPac Review, PJ Media, American Partisan) are largely conservative or alternative media.
🔍 Why It’s Controversial.
Extraordinary claim, limited evidence: Identifying a former Capitol Police officer as the bomber would be explosive news, but the evidence presented is not independently verified.
Partisan framing: The “Fedsurrection” narrative is used by Trump supporters to argue that federal agencies orchestrated or manipulated January 6 events.
Timing: The claim surfaced in November 2025, nearly five years after the attack, raising questions about why authorities have not acted if the identification were solid.

I heard that the pipe bomber is Marjorie Taylor Green.
Even if this person is the bomber (which I doubt), that doesn't prove a "fedsurrection".
Me: I'll wait to see if she is arrested. I think the odds are that she will not be.
Copilot: That’s a cautious and reasonable stance. Right now, the pipe bomber case remains officially unsolved, and the FBI has not named or charged anyone. Even though Blaze Media and others have floated Shauni Kerkhoff’s name, there’s no independent confirmation, and without an arrest or indictment it stays in the realm of speculation.
⚖️ Why Arrest Seems Unlikely (at least for now).
No official confirmation: The FBI has kept the case open but silent. If they had strong evidence, you’d expect at least a public statement.
High stakes: Arresting a former Capitol Police officer would be explosive politically. Authorities would need overwhelming proof before moving forward.
Narrative inflation: Much of the talk around “Fedsurrection” is rhetorical. Even if someone were arrested, it wouldn’t automatically validate that broader claim.
