The truth has a way of coming out, even when powerful people try to bury it. This week, we learned something very important about the man accused of planting pipe bombs near the Republican and Democratic National Committee buildings on January 6, 2021. His name is Brian Cole Jr., and he is not who the media led us to believe the suspect would be.
For years, the mainstream press has pushed a story that January 6 was the work of white, far-right extremists angry about the 2020 election. But now the facts tell a different tale. Cole Jr., a 30-year-old black man from Virginia, has deep connections to leftist activism, not conservative movements. This is not just a minor detail—it completely changes the picture.
Let’s look at who this man really is. Cole Jr. is said to be a strong supporter of radical racial justice causes. He once sued President Trump, along with Immigration and Customs Enforcement and the Department of Homeland Security. His family runs a bail bond business that reportedly helped release illegal immigrants from ICE custody. That’s not the resume of a right-wing extremist. That’s the record of someone deeply tied to the far-left agenda.
Even more concerning is the connection to George Floyd’s legal team. Cole Jr.’s father, Brian Cole Sr., was once represented by civil rights lawyer Ben Crump. Crump is a well-known figure who has represented the families of George Floyd, Breonna Taylor, Trayvon Martin, and others. His law firm confirmed they represented Cole Sr. in a racial discrimination case in 2021. Though they say they never worked with Cole Jr., the family’s ties to high-profile leftist activism are clear.
We must ask ourselves: if this suspect had been a white man with ties to Trump or conservative causes, how would the media react? We know the answer. They would talk about it nonstop. They would say it proves their story about right-wing violence. It would be front-page news for days.
But when the facts don’t fit their story, the media goes quiet. They shrug their shoulders and act like it doesn’t matter. They refuse to look deeper into Cole Jr.’s background or political beliefs. They don’t want Americans to ask the hard questions. Why did Cole Jr. do it? What was his motive? Was this an act of left-wing violence?
We’ve spent years hearing that January 6 was an “insurrection,” a dark day in American history. But now we see that even the pipe bomb part of that day may not have come from the right at all. In fact, it may have come from someone who hated Trump, supported radical causes, and came from a family linked to one of the most famous leftist lawyers in the country.
This is not just about one man. This is about truth. It’s about the double standard in how the media reports the news. It’s about holding everyone to the same standard, no matter their race, background, or political beliefs.
The American people deserve honesty. We deserve fairness. And we deserve to know the full truth about what happened on January 6. Not just the parts that fit the media’s story, but all of it.
President Trump has called out the bias in the media for years. He was right. They twist facts, ignore stories that don’t help them, and try to control how we see the world. But we’re smarter than that. We know when something doesn’t add up. And this story—about a pipe bomber with ties to the George Floyd movement—doesn’t just not add up. It blows the left’s narrative wide open.
It’s time to stop letting the media pick and choose which stories matter. Every act of violence, no matter who commits it, must be judged fairly. That’s what justice looks like. That’s what America should stand for. And that’s what we must fight for—truth, no matter where it leads.
