"Occurred at or near the Capitol" refers to the location of the events and "on January 6, 2021" refers to the time of the events.

The January 6th date is unambiguous and a truly impartial court -- which this MAGA-hijacked Supreme Court most certainly is NOT ‐- would never rule in the pipe bomber's favor here.
