It’s been just over a week since Bonnie and Clyde were saved from their life of neglect and misery and near death situation.
Their faces were sad at first but they had a great Sunday… (1/5) 🧵
While you're doing your Saturday chores, or maybe taking a long Sunday drive, here are almost 20 full hours of me and @KyleSeraphin breaking it all down on a constant stream. #FreeBrianColeJr
If working with sick dogs has taught me anything in life it is that we should all try and live in the moment and do more of what we enjoy.
When I was in ICU battling for my life after depression and addiction I told myself if I got another chance I wouldn’t ever be afraid of failure ever again and I’d forget about possessions and the traditional things the world tells us we need to have or do in order to be happy.
All I could think of was either teaching sport to kids or spending time with dogs. I had no idea that change in outlook would lead me to being with dogs in the way I am now and having such a mission.
Its really hard being caught up in the rat race of life with bills, traffic, health issues, social expectations, stress, anxiety, addiction, missed opportunities, lack of options and every other thing that life throws at us all. I feel so blessed to be able to do what I do. The only small bit of advice I can give is to try and do more of what you love as soon as you can. It could be learning photography, traveling to a new country, getting a dog, opening a cafe or playing sports you loved when younger. Just try and be kind to yourself and do more of what you love.
Big love ❤️
Day 3 of Bonnie and Clyde week.
These two are taking their recovery in stride and looking adorable doing it. Bonnie is rocking the absolute cutest little pink bandage on her ear, while Clyde is sporting his cone and showing off his sweet teefies. 🥹
Even though they have a long way to go, they are handling their treatments like champions. Seeing them safe, comfortable, and still smiling through it all is the best feeling.
You can imagine the knot I felt in my gut on Dec. 4 when I first learned @FBI had arrested someone other than my 'POI1' as the J5/J6 pipe bomber. Then, someone posted this very photo of Brian Cole Jr., and my anxiety immediately disappeared. I knew the young man in this blue shirt could not be the bomber. (I'd spent too much time with the videos of the actual suspect, and the differences in physiology were stark.)
The FBI also knew this man wasn't the bomber. Most certainly the lead case agent, Nick Hanek, knew BCJ couldn't be the bomber ... and he knew it long before the arrest and that nightmareish interrogation. Hanek knows it now. Hanek knows it each time he shows up at court for one of BCJ's hearings. And yet, somehow Hanek lives with himself while perpetuating this injustice.

It’s now been 11 days since we produced Brian Cole Jr.’s alibi video. 7 days since we showed that the actual J5 pipe bomb suspect is someone wearing and carrying “cop stuff.” It was Sept. 1 - almost two months ago - since I revealed that “this” @FBI knew the bomber was “law enforcement” … at least by early Fall of last year … and long before Cole’s arrest.
Where are you @TheJusticeDept, @AGToddBlanche, @USAttyPirro, @FBIDirectorKash, @WhiteHouse, @POTUS?
Bonnie is doing much better than her brother Clyde and today she was well enough to go out and about. We took them in last week from 2 kind ladies who saved them from a horrible situation of neglect. It’s hard to believe that these gentle golden retrievers were ever treated like this. They don’t have a bad bone in their bodies.
Sadly her brother passed before we knew about them and Clyde is still very ill and needs a big operation next week. Bonnie is poorly herself but she is keeping up the spirits and we hope to help her back to full health. She has also clearly been used for breeding.
Today was the first day where I really saw her coming alive as a golden retriever. She was craving attention, loving her food, and her tail just could not stop wagging. To the many hundreds of people who've messaged me saying she reminds them of Tina, I have to say I fully agree.
Still an incredibly sad situation that the brother is gone and another one is so critically ill, but today we have hope and that's all we could ask for. Older followers will probably recognize the bandana that has helped Tina, Shack, Mr. Big, Hank, and many other dogs in their recovery. Hard to believe but it is still the very same one and I also wore it on my book tour all around the world. Bonnie and Clyde have the whole world rooting for them ❤️🤞
It’s amazing how fresh Birdie is. Look at that big wet nose and how clear her eyes are.
She’s hiding from a storm today in the office.
She says she is going to live forever ❤️
Tucker's Final Mission
https://t.co/EvA1Sq0P3q
When we wrote Tucker’s book, we never imagined we’d be sharing it without him. This was a project we poured our hearts into long before his passing, and we had dreamed of celebrating its release together. Although our hearts are broken and our world has completely changed, our hope is that this final chapter of Tucker’s story can bring love, comfort, and hope to others, just as he did throughout his life.
🎗️For children battling cancer: You can sponsor a book and Tucker squishy bundle that will be donated to a child fighting cancer through our participating children’s hospitals and nonprofit partners. Our dream is to reach every child diagnosed this year.
❤️For the fight against cancer: We’ve personally donated $8,000 to Morris Animal Foundation’s Golden Retriever Lifetime Study, a groundbreaking study investigating cancer in Golden Retrievers, and $2,000 to Blood Cancer United’s Dare to Dream Project, which funds groundbreaking research and clinical trials to develop safer, less toxic, and more effective treatments for children with blood cancer, with fewer long term side effects.
With your help, we’re hoping to reach our fundraising goals of $50,000 for Morris Animal Foundation and $75,000 for Blood Cancer United in Tucker’s honor. Every contribution brings us one step closer. You can sponsor a book bundle, donate directly, and follow our fundraising progress through the links on our website.
This was never how we imagined sharing Tucker’s book with the world 😭 He was supposed to be here for this. But we hope something beautiful can come from something so heartbreaking. Thank you for helping us carry on his legacy

Our sweet Birdie. 🤍 After a hard life on the streets, we are so grateful she’s spent this past year with us, surrounded by the love she always deserved. We don’t know if we have days or weeks left with her, but every moment will be filled with comfort and cuddles. We might not be able to give her more time, but we can make the time she has left as beautiful as possible.
Thank you guys for all of the love tonight! That was a tremendous uplift going through the case from the beginning and assessing the various holes, twists, and evidence—but it was such an important refresher one year on, made only better by @baroncoleman!
Thank you to all the YouTube creators that we mentioned (and the many more we didn’t) for your steady contributions over the last year.
Thank you especially to our army of sleuths around the world who we simply could not have compiled this much information without.
I’ll be sure to pop in, but I’m sure going to miss seeing you guys regularly.
Go max.

I'm going to wade into the fire of the Leah Files and Shawn Ryan interview that was, then wasn't, then was.
And I have a quick follow up from the license plate searches the other night!
