Following the January 6, 2021, Capitol riot, it was revealed through court proceedings and news reports that multiple FBI informants had infiltrated the Proud Boys. Some key points include:
- FBI Informants in Proud Boys Leadership: Several members of the Proud Boys, including prominent figures, were later identified as FBI informants. For example, Enrique Tarrio, the national chairman of the Proud Boys, was revealed to have been an informant for federal and local law enforcement before the January 6 event. Tarrio reportedly provided information on various groups, although he has denied being an informant during the Capitol riot.
- Ongoing Cooperation with Law Enforcement: Reports emerged indicating that multiple members of the Proud Boys were working with the FBI and providing details about the group's activities. This cooperation was known to have started before January 6 and extended afterward. The information collected by these informants was used to aid in investigations related to the Capitol attack and to monitor other extremist activities.
- Court Testimonies and Legal Proceedings: During trials of Proud Boys members involved in the Capitol attack, it was revealed through court documents that informants had provided significant intelligence leading up to the events. This included information about plans, communications, and strategies discussed among members. However, defense attorneys have argued that some of these informants were not privy to the full scope of actions being planned for January 6, and their intelligence was not used to prevent the violence.
The existence of FBI informants within the Proud Boys indicates the use of such individuals to gain insight into the activities of extremist groups. There has been significant public interest in how much information federal agencies had before January 6 and whether they acted effectively based on that intelligence.

Where is the DNC bomber :|\\
The case of the DNC (Democratic National Committee) bomber from January 6, 2021, remains unsolved. On the night before the Capitol riot, January 5, 2021, an unidentified person placed two pipe bombs near the headquarters of the Democratic National Committee and the Republican National Committee in Washington, D.C. The bombs were discovered on January 6, just before the riot, and successfully defused by law enforcement. Here are key details:
Timeline and Discovery
- The pipe bombs were placed at the DNC and RNC buildings on the evening of January 5, 2021, between 7:30 and 8:30 p.m., according to surveillance footage released by the FBI.
- On January 6, shortly before the Capitol riot began, law enforcement was alerted to the presence of the bombs. The RNC bomb was discovered around 12:45 p.m., and the DNC bomb was found shortly after, around 1:15 p.m. Both bombs were defused without causing injury.
Surveillance Footage and Suspect Description
- The FBI released surveillance footage showing a person wearing a hoodie, gloves, and a face mask walking through the area and placing the bombs.
- The individual carried a backpack that seemed to contain the bombs and wore distinctive footwear: Nike Air Max Speed Turf shoes with a yellow logo.
- Despite widespread sharing of the suspect's image and significant public interest, the bomberÂ’s identity remains unknown.
Investigation and Theories
- The FBI has been leading the investigation, offering a $500,000 reward for information leading to the arrest of the suspect. However, as of now, the individual has not been caught.
- Some investigators have suggested that the bombs were potentially intended as a distraction for law enforcement on January 6. If they had detonated, they could have diverted security and police resources away from the Capitol, where the riot was escalating.
- However, the devices were not set to detonate immediately and were discovered hours before the peak of the Capitol violence, so it's unclear how much of a role, if any, they played in the overall events of January 6.
The mystery of the DNC and RNC bomber has continued to intrigue investigators, the public, and commentators, but so far, no significant breakthroughs have been publicly reported.
