House J6 subcommittee chair requests interviews with Kamala Harris' security detail on DNC pipe bomb

House Select Subcommittee on January 6 Chairman Barry Loudermilk on Monday sent a letter to the Secret Service requesting transcribed interviews with Secret Service agents who were at the Democratic National Committee (DNC) before and after the mysterious pipe bomb was discovered prior to the Capitol riot on January 6, 2021.

The FBI has been stumped over the suspect who placed the pipe bomb, who still remains unidentified, even after it dropped several surveillance videos of the suspect who was in a gray hoodie and wearing Nike Air Max Speed Turf sneakers and a mask. The FBI is also offering a substantial $500,000 reward for information leading to the arrest of the suspect.

Loudermilk is seeking transcribed interviews with seven Secret Service agents who were at the DNC headquarters in Washington, D.C., before and after the pipe bomb was discovered, along with documents the Secret Service gave to the previous January 6 committee, and documents relating to a Secret Service cell phone upgrade, which resulted in cell phones being wiped.

"During the 119th Congress, we sought information regarding the discovery of the pipe bombs near the Republican National Committee (RNC) and the ... DNC headquarters buildings on January 6," Loudermilk wrote. "More than four years later, there remain more questions than answers surrounding who may have placed these devices and whether federal law enforcement entities have adequately investigated the matter.

"Given the presence of [former] Vice President Kamala Harris’s Secret Service detail at the DNC when authorities discovered the pipe bomb, your agents may possess information that is necessary for our oversight and request your cooperation in this process," he added. 

The letter also highlighted how 10 Secret Service agents conducted a sweep of the DNC around 8:30 a.m., before Harris was expected to arrive at 11:30 a.m., yet did not find the pipe bomb until about 1:05 p.m.

In addition, Loudermilk asked the Secret Service to provide the information it requested no later than 10 days after the end of the federal government shutdown.
