The Blaze's pipe bomb identification lacks credibility and spreads dangerous misinformation. Their anonymous gait analysis hasn't been verified, the DOJ explicitly denies identifying this suspect, and lead reporter Steve Baker has a documented history of publishing false stories. This unconfirmed allegation spread through right-wing media without proper verification.
