Filmed removing plastic snow fencing and police signage from the west lawn on Jan. 6, the man says he was concerned about safety.
One of the most recognizable figures from Jan. 6 came out of obscurity on Sept. 27 for a broadcast interview to tell the world that he is not—and was not—a federal agent who cut down plastic fencing and pulled up steel fence posts at the U.S. Capitol.
“I guess I got a hashtag on Twitter called #FenceCutterBulwark,” the man said at the outset of the Patriot Punk Network videocast on Rumble.
“And I’m just a guy. I was there January 6. Wasn’t there for any particular grand motivation. I mostly just went to see the show.”
Appearing in the studio of the “Patriot Punk,” journalist Chase Matheson of Tullahoma, Tennessee, #FenceCutterBulwark (FCB), said he did not remove fencing to make it easy for protesters to reach the Capitol but rather to eliminate safety hazards.
Dressed in what appeared to be a similar muted, berry-colored beanie, dark sunglasses, and a grey Bulwark-brand fire-retardant jacket that FCB wore on Jan. 6, 2021, the man said he came forward to set some things straight.
“They’re not going to find out that I’m a federal agent or that I’m a provocateur of any sort,” he said.
The identity of the fence cutter has been one of the most enduring mysteries of Jan. 6. Even after the Sept. 27 broadcast, some on X (formerly Twitter) said the man interviewed did not look the same as the Jan. 6 fence cutter.
Though he shared his thoughts about Jan. 6 on the videocast, the man did not reveal his given name or location. He said he has not been contacted by the FBI but is sure they know his identity.
Removed Plastic Barriers
Videos showed FCB rolling up the green plastic snow fencing that Capitol Police installed to keep people away from the Capitol. He also pulled out steel T-posts used to secure the plastic mesh and stacked them near an evergreen tree.
Many Jan. 6 sleuths are convinced that FCB acted as an agent provocateur and might have been working for the federal government.
