Before this, there's this.

As you celebrate the game, take a deeper look at its roots. The people grow in the grass, pave in the lots, weld in the goal posts, inspecting every football. The hardworking people that make every Sunday possible. Carhartt is proud to outfit the crews behind the game. Visit carhartt.com/join the trades to learn more.

Welcome in. I've been looking forward to having this conversation with Steve Baker. We've had him on the show before. Many of you should remember him. It's been a while, but Steve Baker did a lot of great coverage of the January 6th phony insurrection and the people that were thrown underneath prisons for bogus reasons. Steve was on the ground and there on January the 6th. He's been on a story related to January 6th and maybe even a story just as big or certainly as corrupt as January 6th. The pipe bomber, the person that allegedly planted a bomb close to the White House or whatever, the guy's name is Brian Cole Jr, I believe. His parents, I believe, were just on Tucker Carlson's show. And Steve has been reaching out to me like, Jason, I'm telling you, this is a story for you.

I've been so busy. And so, but I trust Steve so much that I wanted to bring him on to Harmony and try to get him to get me up to speed and the audience up to speed on a story that maybe me and my audience and maybe America just isn't making enough of. Steve, welcome back to the show.

Have I done justice to what's been going on between you and I and our communication and why you're here today?

Steve Baker (2:07)

Yeah, Jason, it's so good to see you again. And yes, there is a very specific reason why I have been trying to get you. You know, I know the show has evolved since the last time I was with you and as interested and more focused into sports again as you have been, which is great, by the way. But the story itself, and this is the reason I needed to talk to you about this, was because at the end of the day, what we have here is we have the absolute framing, literally the creation of a Patsy by the FBI, something that they are not, you know, unaccustomed to doing, the framing of a Patsy. In this particular case, it happens to be an autistic young black man who they are accusing of being the January 6th pipe bomber, you know, that gray hooded figure in the blurry videos that the FBI released, you know, over the last five and a half years, that shows this hooded figure walking around in Washington, DC on the night of January 5th, the night before the big, you know, feds erection and the riot and all of that, and placing these two devices, one at the Democratic National Committee headquarters and the other one behind the Republican National Committee headquarters and the Capitol Hill Club, which is, you know, a private Republican dining facility.

So this is the basis of the story, except for there's one big glaring problem, is Brian Cole Jr. cannot be the individual that walked around that night planting those bombs because physically, every single physical attribute that he has from the top of his head to the bottom of his feet does not match up, measure up, comport with the individual that was placing those devices. How do I know that? Because I've done the work. Me, myself and my team, we have been on our hands and knees. We've measured the bricks. We've measured the payments. We've measured the sidewalks. We know that Brian Cole Jr., because I've held every single Jason, I've been in his home and in his bedroom. I've spent two hours in his bedroom examining every item that that kid owns. I have held every single pair of shoes of his in my hand. I've taken photographs of the label of every single pair of shoes in my hands. They're all size 12 Every single pair of shoes he owns is a size 12 The bomber wears a nine to a nine and a half. And I know that conclusively because we've measured the payment and I've gone so far as to actually buy three pairs of those 2018 model Nike Air Max Speed Turf Shoes.

Young Brian Cole cannot shove his size 12 feet into a size nine shoe and walk around DC for an hour. Impossible.

Jason Whitlock (5:11)

So, Steve, how did they land on Brian Cole Jr?

How did he even become a suspect? Because, you know, am I correct? Weren't his parents on Tucker Carlson's show kind of explaining this? How did they land on Brian Cole?
