‘She’s one of us!’ Steve Baker stuns Glenn Beck with bombshell revelation about J6 pipe-bomb suspect

Blaze News investigative reporters Steve Baker and Joseph Hanneman have spent years working to identify the masked individual who placed pipe bombs near the headquarters of the Republican National Committee and the Democratic National Committee in Washington, D.C., on Jan. 5, 2021.

Baker, whom the Biden FBI arrested over his January 6 reporting, revealed to Blaze Media co-founder Glenn Beck on Wednesday that they have finally locked in on a suspect.

What’s more, Baker hinted that the suspect’s imminent identification will implicate and shame at least one federal agency.

Baker told Beck, “When I pulled this thread, I was so shocked by what I saw, I immediately took it to a source in one of the most important, highest-level investigative federal agencies in the country. I immediately took it to our sources there, and I said, ‘You have to see this.'”

“After they looked at it for about two hours, the response that I got back was, ‘Holy F,'” continued Baker. “And then the follow-up response was, ‘She’s one of us!'”

When pressed by Beck about his confidence level in the suspect ID, Baker said, “I will tell you that from gait analysis — that’s the analysis of the hoodied bomber … compared to the gait analysis of this individual in private life and at work — that the actual software hit at a 94% accuracy.”

“Human analysis from the experts in intelligence is much higher,” continued Baker. “They looked at it and went, ‘My God, that’s it. We got it.'”

Forensic gait analysis — the scientific study of patterns in an individual’s style of movement in walking or running — is regarded as one of the most sophisticated approaches to identifying an individual from CCTV footage or video recordings and as especially valuable in the absence of other biometric identifiers….

FDNY commissioner resigns day after Zohran Mamdani mayoral win

FDNY Commissioner Robert Tucker tendered his resignation Wednesday, the morning after Zohran Mamdani’s mayoral election victory at the polls, the Daily News has learned.

In a letter to Mayor Adams sent less than 12 hours after Mamdani’s win over former Gov. Andrew Cuomo and GOP candidate Curtis Sliwa, Tucker announced his last day will be Dec. 19.

“Between now and then, I will continue to lead the greatest fire department in the world and will ensure an orderly transition,” Tucker wrote in his letter, which was obtained by The News.

An FDNY source said there have been no talks between Tucker and Mamdani’s camp about the private businessman and philanthropist staying on as commissioner.

Tucker, who is Jewish and a Zionist, felt he wouldn’t mesh well with Mamdani, a Democratic socialist, and his team, the source said. Mamdani came under fire during the election for statements and positions that were seen by some as anti-Semitic….

U.S. Marshals have joined the manhunt for a 24-year-old North Carolina man accused of killing his grandmother, burning her home to the ground and stabbing a deputy.

Dominic Liam Connelly was last seen in Vanceboro, North Carolina, and authorities said he has ties to New York. Authorities say he is considered armed and dangerous.

His grandmother, Patricia Jean Timek Lopedote, 72, was found dead inside the ashes of her home in Craven County.

Connelly is wanted on charges of murder, arson, motor vehicle theft, attempted murder and felony assault.

Connelly is described as standing 5-feet, 8-inches tall and weighing around 180 pounds. He has wavy blonde hair and blue eyes.

Craven County deputies responded to a house fire on Oct. 25, when they found Lopedote dead.

On Oct. 29, he allegedly stabbed a deputy in Vanceboro. The deputy survived, but the suspect got away….


WATCH: Massive Brawl Erupts in Bass Pro Shop Over Bathroom Argument

The brawl began as a disagreement as customers waited in line to use the restroom at around 3 p.m. on Saturday, according to KDFW-TV.

Cell phone video of the altercation shows two groups of men throwing punches and wrestling each other to the floor as other shoppers stood by in shock.

Two men are seen throwing punches outside the bathrooms. And for some reason, a man in a Texas Longhorns jersey also waded in and began attacking another.

One female bystander was incensed by the whole spectacle.

In the video, she can be heard screaming, “Grown-ass men acting like idiots!” and also, “And you wonder why our schools are falling apart! It’s their fault! Look at the example that you’re setting!”

Police were eventually called, but no arrests were made, as all parties declined to file charges.

However, each fighter was issued a criminal trespass warning and told they were permanently banned from the store.

The original two combatants each sustained minor injuries, and no medical care was required.

The identities of those caught up in the brawl were not released.


Woman Found Dead at Disney’s Pop Century Resort Is Fourth Death in a Month

“There were no signs of foul play,” the sheriff’s office told Fox News. Media reports say police found the woman at the Pop Century Resort, which is located near Epcot and Hollywood Studios.

This woman’s death follows a string a Disney resort-related fatalities, including the death of three people whose bodies were all found in a 10-day span in October.

Last week, the Orange County Medical Examiner’s office said 28-year-old Matthew Cohn, the third fatality at Disney in a month, passed away from “multiple traumatic injuries” at the hotel. The medical office ruled his death a suicide.

Cohn’s suicide was the second in a month, following that of 31-year-old Summer Equitz who died at the Contemporary Resort hotel in October.

This still unidentified woman’s death marks Disney World’s 69th fatality since the park opened in 1971…..


CAIR Celebrates ‘History’ of Ghazala Hashmi Elected as First Muslim Female Lt. Governor of Virginia

As of Wednesday morning, with 96.5 percent of the votes in, Hashmi led Reid with 55.6 percent of the vote compared to Reid’s 44.2 percent.

“We congratulate all the reelected and newly-elected leaders in Virginia, including state senator Ghazala Hashmi. State Senator Hashmi has made history as the first Muslim woman elected to any statewide office in the United States,” CAIR said in a statement.

“We hope this historic moment will inspire American Muslims to continue pursuing public service in Virginia and across the country,” CAIR added.

During her victory speech, Hashmi declared that politics must be “more inclusive and focused on solving problems instead of scoring maximum points on the backs of other people’s pain.”

She also touted her status as a Muslim woman.

“My own journey from a young child landing at the airport in Savannah to now being elected as the first Muslim woman to achieve statewide office — the first Muslim woman to achieve statewide office, not just in Virginia, but in the entire country,” she said to cheers in the crowd, asserting that she decided to run for Lieutenant Governor because she observed what she described as the “targeting and the scapegoating of marginalized communities.”

“I decided to run for public office because no one in this country should be made to feel as though they’re not welcome in their neighborhoods or in their own communities,” she declared.

CAIR also released a statement celebrating the victory of New York City’s socialist Muslim Zohran Mamdani winning the mayoral race, deeming it a “historic turning point for American Muslim political engagement” and “historic rebuke of both Islamophobia and anti-Palestinian racism in politics.”…

Prop. 50 passage sets off a chain of political and legal maneuvers

When California voters overwhelmingly passed Proposition 50 on Tuesday, they set in motion political and possibly legal maneuvers that will ultimately determine whether its overt purpose, increasing Democratic congressional members by five or more seats, becomes reality.

The first is a political scramble among politicians in both parties to determine who will run where in next year’s congressional elections.

Ambitious Democrats are lining up to run in the newly gerrymandered districts, some of which have been tailored to favor particular candidates.

The most obvious example is a district that stretches from the heavily Republican northeastern corner of the state to the northern suburbs of San Francisco, seemingly made to order for Mike McGuire, the outgoing president pro tem of the state Senate. In creating that district, Gov. Gavin Newsom and the Legislature aim to unseat Republican Doug LaMalfa, who now represents northeastern California in Congress.

The plan would, if successful, shrink Republican districts from nine to four, meaning that in some areas, such as in inland Southern California, current GOP incumbents would be compelled to either retire or joust among themselves for survival.

Prop. 50’s political impacts hinge on the assumption that maps ratified by the ballot measure actually are in effect for next year’s elections. While it’s likely they will be used, there’s a possibility that courts will intervene.

By happenstance, Prop. 50’s pro-Democrat gerrymander and the recent pro-Republican gerrymander in Texas are occurring just as the U.S. Supreme Court weighs a major case involving the federal Voting Rights Act. Its outcome could impact both…..


Feds announce charges for alleged driver in U-Haul attack on Coast Guard personnel

Thompson was shot in the back, between the shoulder blades, while allegedly behind the wheel of the truck and was taken to Highland Hospital in Oakland by “a third party” after “rapidly” driving away from the security personnel and off of the bridge, according to a criminal complaint filed by FBI Special Agent Mikael Bergh in U.S. District Court for the Northern District of California in Oakland.

During interviews with federal investigators, the Coast Guard personnel who opened fire said they did so out of fear for their lives, and some said they were worried that the truck might be filled with explosives or assailants, according to the complaint.

After being treated for the gunshot wound, which isn’t considered to be life-threatening, Thompson was transferred to a psychiatric hospital.

In addition to Thompson, a man who was attending the protest but who wasn’t inside the truck was also hit by gunfire and is expected to survive.

None of the Coast Guard members were injured.

“Attempting to use a truck to assault federal officers performing their lawful duties is not protest, it is a violent and serious federal crime,” FBI Acting Special Agent in Charge Matt Cobo said in a news release Tuesday.

Thompson, who is referred to as Brendan Munro Thompson in court documents, was scheduled to attend a preliminary hearing in front of U.S. Magistrate Judge Kandis Westmore on Monday….


San Francisco man found guilty in deadly beating of 88-year-old, attacks targeting Asians

Keonte Gathron San Francisco Police Department

A jury has convicted a San Francisco man of murder, robbery and other felony charges in connection with a 2019 crime spree that predominantly targeted Asian Americans in the city.

District Attorney Brooke Jenkins’ office announced Tuesday that 25-year-old Keonte Gathron was convicted of first-degree murder during the commission of a robbery and burglary. Gathron was also convicted of eight counts of robbery, one count of kidnapping for robbery, two counts of carjacking, two counts of burglary, along with elder abuse and child endangerment.

Prosecutors said the jury also found that Gathron personally used a firearm in three of the incidents.

“Mr. Gathron is now being held accountable for his crimes that terrorized so many in our community,” Jenkins said in a statement. “My office is committed to fighting for justice in every case for as long as it takes.”

Prosecutors said in January of 2019, Gathron robbed seven people over the span of 13 days, with six of the victims being Asian. Three victims were elderly, while three were youths on the way to or from school.

Authorities said one of the victims, 88-year-old Yik Oi Huang, was brutally attacked by Gathron at a park in the city’s Visitacion Valley neighborhood during the crime spree. Huang died from her injuries a year later….

FBI and Twitter Met on the Eve of the Midterms

A Freedom of Information Act lawsuit by Judicial Watch has brought to light an FBI email showing federal agents met with Twitter executives only four days before the 2022 midterm elections.

The message, dated November 3, 2022, arranged a “touch point meeting” the next day to discuss “potential changes” to Twitter’s “content moderation policies” and “PRC networks of activity.”

Only one name in the correspondence was left unredacted. It identified Laura E. Dehmlow, who was then section chief of the FBI’s Foreign Influence Task Force.

Every other sender and recipient was concealed. Judicial Watch said the timing and focus of the meeting highlight how government agencies were communicating with social media companies during a critical political period.

“This smoking-gun email shows that the Biden FBI were working with Big Tech to censor Americans just before a key election,” said Judicial Watch President Tom Fitton…..

Although the Twitter Files had already shown that the FBI was meeting regularly with Twitter and flagging posts before the 2022 election, this newly released record reveals a specific example of such coordination occurring within days of the vote.

The details have added to growing concern about the degree to which federal agencies were influencing what Americans could see and share online during election season…..
