TL;DR Summary

The FBI mistakenly questioned a Biden campaign staffer named John Richter about the Capitol pipe bombs that were planted during the Jan. 6 attack. The FBI showed up at Richter's door, thinking he was involved in the bombing, but they had the wrong person. Richter, who had worked for Biden and Clinton, had no knowledge of the bombs and had been in Pennsylvania during the 2020 campaign. The FBI's mistake became a running joke among Richter's friends, and it wasn't until two years later that the correct suspect was arrested.
