And the question 3 00:00:10,600 --> 00:00:14,720 Speaker 1: you're probably asking yourself is why did it take so long? Well, 4 00:00:14,760 --> 00:00:17,040 Speaker 1: the manicus of playing that pipe bomb near the US 5 00:00:17,160 --> 00:00:20,840 Speaker 1: Capitol the day before the January sixth, twenty twenty one 6 00:00:21,280 --> 00:00:26,599 Speaker 1: protests has been arrested in Virginia. Officials with the FBI 7 00:00:26,840 --> 00:00:31,760 Speaker 1: arrested the suspect early Thursday, citing law enforcement sources saying 8 00:00:32,120 --> 00:00:35,480 Speaker 1: the suspect's name is Brian Cole. That according to two 9 00:00:35,600 --> 00:00:39,200 Speaker 1: sources to Fox News, the pipe bombs are placed near 10 00:00:39,240 --> 00:00:44,080 Speaker 1: the Republican and Democratic National Committee headquarters over sixteen hours 11 00:00:44,159 --> 00:00:50,000 Speaker 1: before authorities even located them. A bomb squad detonated the 12 00:00:50,000 --> 00:00:54,480 Speaker 1: pipe bomb found at the Republican National Committee. A suspicious 13 00:00:54,480 --> 00:00:58,400 Speaker 1: package was also found at the Democratic National Committee's offices. 14 00:00:59,000 --> 00:01:02,320 Speaker 1: The report comes as supporters of President Trump stormed the 15 00:01:02,440 --> 00:01:07,039 Speaker 1: US Capital to protest the Congressional Electoral College vote to 16 00:01:07,080 --> 00:01:10,959 Speaker 1: certify the twenty twenty presidential election results for then President 17 00:01:11,000 --> 00:01:14,960 Speaker 1: elect Joe Biden. That is how the news covered this. 18 00:01:15,160 --> 00:01:19,000 Speaker 1: I'm not joking more than even the pipe bomb. The 19 00:01:19,080 --> 00:01:23,399 Speaker 1: exact words of NBC News.

We 59 00:03:41,840 --> 00:03:45,800 Speaker 2: covered this story extensively over the years. He was captured 60 00:03:46,080 --> 00:03:48,760 Speaker 2: this morning. That suspect in our very own Melanie Alwicks. 61 00:03:48,760 --> 00:03:52,400 Speaker 2: She's been following the investigation since it started. Mel what 62 00:03:52,440 --> 00:03:54,480 Speaker 2: can you tell us about this breaking news. 63 00:03:56,640 --> 00:03:58,680 Speaker 3: Well, first of all, we should make it clear that 64 00:03:58,800 --> 00:04:02,920 Speaker 3: this information is based on a law enforcement source that 65 00:04:03,120 --> 00:04:06,480 Speaker 3: spoke to the Associated Press. We do not have official 66 00:04:06,520 --> 00:04:10,200 Speaker 3: confirmation on this directly from the FBI at this point. 67 00:04:10,240 --> 00:04:12,680 Speaker 3: But you know, this investigation has been going on for 68 00:04:12,800 --> 00:04:16,600 Speaker 3: five years. It recently gained a lot of new attention, 69 00:04:16,760 --> 00:04:19,919 Speaker 3: new eyes, new steam from social media, a lot of 70 00:04:19,920 --> 00:04:23,680 Speaker 3: people talking about this because of new video, new information 71 00:04:24,000 --> 00:04:26,920 Speaker 3: that the FBI put out in October of this year. 72 00:04:27,040 --> 00:04:30,240 Speaker 3: Let's show you that video and again talk about some 73 00:04:30,320 --> 00:04:33,200 Speaker 3: of the additional details that we had not learned before. 74 00:04:33,480 --> 00:04:36,760 Speaker 3: A detailed description revealing the suspect is about five foot seven, 75 00:04:37,120 --> 00:04:39,520 Speaker 3: was wearing a face mask, a gray hooded sweatshirt, and 76 00:04:39,560 --> 00:04:43,479 Speaker 3: black gloves. The suspect used a backpack to transport the devices, 77 00:04:43,520 --> 00:04:46,640 Speaker 3: and a lot of attention to this wearing distinctive Nike 78 00:04:46,720 --> 00:04:50,200 Speaker 3: Airmac Speed turf shoes which are black and gray with 79 00:04:50,240 --> 00:04:53,440 Speaker 3: the yellow Nike logo, and the FBI said fewer than 80 00:04:53,440 --> 00:04:56,799 Speaker 3: twenty five thousand of these shoes were sold between August 81 00:04:56,800 --> 00:04:59,240 Speaker 3: of twenty eighteen and January of twenty twenty one, so 82 00:04:59,279 --> 00:05:02,920 Speaker 3: that really help them narrow down the field. Now, the 83 00:05:02,960 --> 00:05:05,920 Speaker 3: first pipe bomb was placed outside the Democratic National Committee 84 00:05:05,920 --> 00:05:09,440 Speaker 3: headquarters at seven fifty four pm on the evening of 85 00:05:09,520 --> 00:05:12,680 Speaker 3: January fifth, twenty twenty one. The suspect is seen on 86 00:05:12,680 --> 00:05:16,440 Speaker 3: surveillance cameras walking along North Capitol Street, North Carolina Avenue, 87 00:05:16,480 --> 00:05:20,240 Speaker 3: and Second Street before eventually walking past the Republican National 88 00:05:20,279 --> 00:05:23,919 Speaker 3: Committee headquarters at eight eighteen pm. The FBI says the 89 00:05:23,960 --> 00:05:26,400 Speaker 3: second pipe bomb was placed sometime after that, but the 90 00:05:26,440 --> 00:05:30,040 Speaker 3: suspect was not directly seen on video with the second 91 00:05:30,080 --> 00:05:33,920 Speaker 3: pipe bomb placing. Now, nobody was hurt. The FBI said 92 00:05:33,920 --> 00:05:36,279 Speaker 3: that these pipe bombs were rendered safe, but they certainly 93 00:05:36,520 --> 00:05:39,520 Speaker 3: could both have been lethal. There was a five hundred 94 00:05:39,600 --> 00:05:43,560 Speaker 3: thousand dollars reward offered for information leading to an arrest 95 00:05:43,560 --> 00:05:45,640 Speaker 3: and conviction in this case, and we do expect to 96 00:05:45,720 --> 00:05:47,440 Speaker 3: learn more later today. 97 00:05:48,560 --> 00:05:51,039 Speaker 1: Now you can hear how the media is even shocked, 98 00:05:51,040 --> 00:05:53,480 Speaker 1: and I play for you the local media sometimes just 99 00:05:53,560 --> 00:05:56,800 Speaker 1: to prove the point of what this should sound like. 100 00:05:56,880 --> 00:05:59,680 Speaker 1: And the media is obviously asking questions like why did 101 00:05:59,680 --> 00:06:04,000 Speaker 1: it so long and how did it now happen? With 102 00:06:04,400 --> 00:06:09,200 Speaker 1: Republicans in charge, people like Dan Bongino and the FBI 103 00:06:09,320 --> 00:06:14,120 Speaker 1: Director Cash Ptel and President Donald Trump, were they purposely 104 00:06:14,440 --> 00:06:19,320 Speaker 1: deliberately looking the other way. Dan Bongino coming out and 105 00:06:19,360 --> 00:06:22,520 Speaker 1: saying this at the press conference about it, take a listen. 106 00:06:22,839 --> 00:06:25,200 Speaker 4: Thank you all for being here for this critical investigation 107 00:06:25,279 --> 00:06:27,240 Speaker 4: we've been working on for a very long time.

This is what happens. We had a great team. 115 00:06:44,240 --> 00:06:46,039 Speaker 4: I know it's said a lot in this business. It 116 00:06:46,120 --> 00:06:49,320 Speaker 4: was a team effort. Becomes cliche, but cliches are useful 117 00:06:49,320 --> 00:06:51,000 Speaker 4: for a reason because they matter, and this was a 118 00:06:51,040 --> 00:06:55,080 Speaker 4: team effort. The Director and the Attorney General emphasized that 119 00:06:55,160 --> 00:06:56,920 Speaker 4: it was not a new public tip. 120 00:06:57,000 --> 00:06:57,599 Speaker 5: This came from. 121 00:06:57,680 --> 00:07:01,200 Speaker 4: This was our internal work at the FBI, and I 122 00:07:01,240 --> 00:07:05,840 Speaker 4: want to just really express my sincere gratitude to this 123 00:07:05,920 --> 00:07:08,800 Speaker 4: Attorney General and this president for allowing. 124 00:07:08,440 --> 00:07:09,200 Speaker 5: Us the latitude. 125 00:07:09,240 --> 00:07:12,760 Speaker 4: I spoke with Miss Bondi very early when we maybe 126 00:07:12,920 --> 00:07:15,480 Speaker 4: day two, and I said we're going to get this guy, 127 00:07:15,720 --> 00:07:18,600 Speaker 4: and she said, as you are, and we did.

That is what should 168 00:09:34,480 --> 00:09:38,640 Speaker 1: make every American angry. Forget politics, This is an issue 169 00:09:38,640 --> 00:09:42,920 Speaker 1: of national security. And what you saw from this administration 170 00:09:43,040 --> 00:09:46,360 Speaker 1: is they said, hey, we still care about that crime. 171 00:09:46,880 --> 00:09:49,640 Speaker 1: We're not going to let this stand.

You have to ask yourself, why 177 00:10:06,640 --> 00:10:09,520 Speaker 1: did it take literally years for someone to do their job. 178 00:10:10,120 --> 00:10:12,360 Speaker 1: I want you to listen to what Casptel had to 179 00:10:12,400 --> 00:10:15,880 Speaker 1: say his words, and again, I played for you first 180 00:10:16,000 --> 00:10:18,800 Speaker 1: because I wanted you to understand what the people working 181 00:10:18,960 --> 00:10:22,160 Speaker 1: under him feel like when it comes to actually getting 182 00:10:22,160 --> 00:10:26,400 Speaker 1: to do their job. You heard it there from Dan Bongino, 183 00:10:26,760 --> 00:10:28,240 Speaker 1: But the man in charge of the FBI. 184 00:10:28,679 --> 00:10:29,880 Speaker 5: Listen to what he says. 185 00:10:30,240 --> 00:10:34,720 Speaker 6: When you attack American citizens, when you attack our institutions 186 00:10:34,760 --> 00:10:38,880 Speaker 6: of legislation, when you attack our nation's capital, you attack 187 00:10:39,000 --> 00:10:42,600 Speaker 6: the very being of our way of life.

An individual who's 194 00:10:59,760 --> 00:11:03,280 Speaker 6: now ledge to have placed multiple explosive devices to blow 195 00:11:03,360 --> 00:11:08,840 Speaker 6: up multiple people at multiple officials, innocent civilians, is now arrested. 196 00:11:09,040 --> 00:11:11,600 Speaker 6: Thanks to the brave men and women of the FBI 197 00:11:11,679 --> 00:11:14,199 Speaker 6: and the Inner Agency. I want to take a moment 198 00:11:14,240 --> 00:11:18,320 Speaker 6: to thank the Metropolitan Police Department, the United States Capitol Police, 199 00:11:18,640 --> 00:11:21,200 Speaker 6: our brave prosecutors, the Department of Justice, and our leader, 200 00:11:21,200 --> 00:11:25,679 Speaker 6: Attorney General Pambondi and US Attorney Janine Piro, whose relentless 201 00:11:25,679 --> 00:11:29,199 Speaker 6: work on this case made this possible. As the Attorney 202 00:11:29,200 --> 00:11:33,040 Speaker 6: General said, we did not discover any new information. What 203 00:11:33,200 --> 00:11:37,360 Speaker 6: we did an investigation spearheaded by the Deputy Director and 204 00:11:37,440 --> 00:11:40,240 Speaker 6: the adic of our Washington Field office, brought in a 205 00:11:40,280 --> 00:11:43,880 Speaker 6: new team of investigators and experts, re examined every piece 206 00:11:43,920 --> 00:11:47,800 Speaker 6: of evidence, sifted through all the data, something that the 207 00:11:47,840 --> 00:11:51,679 Speaker 6: prior administration refused and failed to do. As a result 208 00:11:51,760 --> 00:11:56,080 Speaker 6: of that, we generated numerous investigative leads, executed multiple legal 209 00:11:56,120 --> 00:11:57,960 Speaker 6: process with their US attorney partners. 210 00:11:58,360 --> 00:12:01,160 Speaker 1: Let me just hit pause there. Did you notice what 211 00:12:01,240 --> 00:12:04,720 Speaker 1: cash Patel said? He said that, in essence, the last 212 00:12:04,800 --> 00:12:11,280 Speaker 1: administration didn't even try, didn't even actually work hard on 213 00:12:11,320 --> 00:12:14,280 Speaker 1: the leads. Now, if you're if this is some petty 214 00:12:14,360 --> 00:12:17,160 Speaker 1: crime and you're saying, hey, I just can't do this 215 00:12:17,320 --> 00:12:19,760 Speaker 1: because it's petty and I don't have time and we've 216 00:12:19,760 --> 00:12:23,040 Speaker 1: got other major crimes that we're having to figure out, okay, 217 00:12:23,240 --> 00:12:24,560 Speaker 1: you could have that conversation. 218 00:12:25,200 --> 00:12:26,280 Speaker 5: You could have that argument. 219 00:12:26,320 --> 00:12:28,480 Speaker 1: You could say, look, there's other things like I got 220 00:12:28,480 --> 00:12:32,920 Speaker 1: to solve a murder over here that take precedent. That's 221 00:12:32,960 --> 00:12:37,319 Speaker 1: not the case. The case here is pretty damn clear. 222 00:12:37,760 --> 00:12:40,520 Speaker 1: You have an individual that goes into our nation's capital 223 00:12:40,600 --> 00:12:45,280 Speaker 1: and sets down two bombs. They could have killed countless 224 00:12:45,320 --> 00:12:49,360 Speaker 1: innocent people. And what did they do under the prior administration? 225 00:12:50,160 --> 00:12:50,640 Speaker 5: Nothing? 226 00:12:51,440 --> 00:12:55,240 Speaker 1: They just stopped caring, or no, let me rephrase that. 227 00:12:55,559 --> 00:12:59,800 Speaker 1: It sounds like they didn't care at all. Forget stop caring. 228 00:13:00,160 --> 00:13:07,520 Speaker 1: They never even tried, right, they never even tried. And 229 00:13:07,600 --> 00:13:10,559 Speaker 1: I think that is the part that is so shocking 230 00:13:10,679 --> 00:13:13,800 Speaker 1: here is that it was just like who cares? 231 00:13:14,400 --> 00:13:16,480 Speaker 5: Now? Is that because they knew who he was. 232 00:13:17,280 --> 00:13:19,160 Speaker 1: Is that because they didn't have a problem with it 233 00:13:19,200 --> 00:13:23,080 Speaker 1: because they set a pipe bomb at the Republican National Committee, 234 00:13:23,280 --> 00:13:26,800 Speaker 1: did they not care because they were in theory this 235 00:13:26,920 --> 00:13:31,040 Speaker 1: probably would have blown up a bunch of conservatives that 236 00:13:31,080 --> 00:13:34,880 Speaker 1: showed up on the you know, January sixth, Nation's capital, right, 237 00:13:34,920 --> 00:13:37,920 Speaker 1: and that was maybe the target. So they're like, look, hey, 238 00:13:38,320 --> 00:13:41,199 Speaker 1: this was literally a guy targeting Trump's supporters. 239 00:13:41,960 --> 00:13:44,520 Speaker 5: So that's why we're okay with it. 240 00:13:45,080 --> 00:13:49,679 Speaker 1: There's a lot of questions here that should be answered. 241 00:13:51,280 --> 00:13:57,520 Speaker 1: Why did our government not accidentally felt deliberately stopped trying 242 00:13:57,559 --> 00:14:01,600 Speaker 1: to find someone that did what I just described. That 243 00:14:02,480 --> 00:14:05,600 Speaker 1: is the question that everyone should be asking, and that's 244 00:14:05,640 --> 00:14:08,160 Speaker 1: the question that everyone should be angry over. 245 00:14:08,880 --> 00:14:09,080 Speaker 5: Now. 246 00:14:09,120 --> 00:14:11,439 Speaker 1: I want you to keep listening to the FBI director 247 00:14:11,920 --> 00:14:13,280 Speaker 1: and I want you to hear what he has to 248 00:14:13,320 --> 00:14:15,480 Speaker 1: say on the second half of this as he's talking 249 00:14:15,520 --> 00:14:18,800 Speaker 1: about how frustrated he is, as he should be like 250 00:14:19,360 --> 00:14:21,920 Speaker 1: this is if you're in law enforcement, you should be 251 00:14:22,040 --> 00:14:29,600 Speaker 1: enraged that you know that law that your government purposely failed. 252 00:14:29,640 --> 00:14:35,120 Speaker 1: You deliberately chose to look the other way, deliberately chose 253 00:14:35,160 --> 00:14:40,080 Speaker 1: to stop trying to find a individual that put pipe bomps, 254 00:14:40,080 --> 00:14:41,720 Speaker 1: and we don't know what the hell else is the 255 00:14:41,720 --> 00:14:44,200 Speaker 1: guy did in the meantime. We don't know what he 256 00:14:44,240 --> 00:14:46,000 Speaker 1: did in the last three or four years. We have 257 00:14:46,080 --> 00:14:48,480 Speaker 1: no idea. Keep listening. 258 00:14:48,600 --> 00:14:52,960 Speaker 6: It's incredible and came to this conclusion today, and that 259 00:14:53,120 --> 00:14:57,479 Speaker 6: is why we were able to safely secure this individual 260 00:14:57,520 --> 00:15:01,160 Speaker 6: into custody. Remember, we were dealing with an individual who's 261 00:15:01,200 --> 00:15:04,640 Speaker 6: alleged to have made bombs. We cannot do this sort 262 00:15:04,640 --> 00:15:08,360 Speaker 6: of takedown in haste because it endangers the lives of 263 00:15:08,440 --> 00:15:11,800 Speaker 6: law enforcement, and this FBI will never allow the lives 264 00:15:11,840 --> 00:15:14,920 Speaker 6: of law enforcement and our prosecutors to be put in jeopardy. 265 00:15:15,240 --> 00:15:20,640 Speaker 6: This execution was flawless in terms of teamwork, resilience, and 266 00:15:20,800 --> 00:15:24,400 Speaker 6: just a good old fashioned way of police getting the 267 00:15:24,520 --> 00:15:27,840 Speaker 6: job done. When you let good cops be cops, this 268 00:15:27,920 --> 00:15:31,200 Speaker 6: is what happens. I'm eternally grateful to the team behind me, 269 00:15:31,600 --> 00:15:34,800 Speaker 6: to the leadership at the FBI who made this possible. 270 00:15:35,200 --> 00:15:37,120 Speaker 6: But I do want to highlight when I introduced the 271 00:15:37,120 --> 00:15:40,440 Speaker 6: deputy he made this case and so many others, including 272 00:15:40,440 --> 00:15:43,960 Speaker 6: summer heat, his priority to come in here and solve 273 00:15:44,000 --> 00:15:47,120 Speaker 6: it for the American people. And today I'm proud to 274 00:15:47,120 --> 00:15:49,760 Speaker 6: stay in here before you and say we solved it. 275 00:15:50,320 --> 00:15:51,840 Speaker 5: He will have his day in court. 276 00:15:52,320 --> 00:15:54,760 Speaker 6: The American public and the world will learn even more 277 00:15:54,800 --> 00:15:58,440 Speaker 6: information through the legal process. As we have committed under 278 00:15:58,440 --> 00:16:01,640 Speaker 6: this Attorney General, we are the most transparent law enforcement 279 00:16:01,720 --> 00:16:04,520 Speaker 6: operation in US history. But we are also going to 280 00:16:04,560 --> 00:16:07,680 Speaker 6: make sure accountability is delivered to its fullest extent, and 281 00:16:07,720 --> 00:16:09,720 Speaker 6: that happens in the courts of law with our US 282 00:16:09,760 --> 00:16:13,000 Speaker 6: attorneys and our prosecutors. So we will divulge information when 283 00:16:13,000 --> 00:16:16,760 Speaker 6: it is prudent and constitutionally permissible, while upholding the safeguards 284 00:16:16,800 --> 00:16:19,360 Speaker 6: of this case to make sure that the people that 285 00:16:19,440 --> 00:16:23,760 Speaker 6: this individual intended to victimize get the accountability to deserve, 286 00:16:24,160 --> 00:16:27,240 Speaker 6: and most importantly, to deliver in President Trump's promise to 287 00:16:27,320 --> 00:16:29,960 Speaker 6: secure our nation's capital and the rest of the cities 288 00:16:29,960 --> 00:16:32,960 Speaker 6: in this country, to make sure that Americans are allowed 289 00:16:33,000 --> 00:16:35,920 Speaker 6: to go out free and securely in their neighborhoods, and 290 00:16:35,960 --> 00:16:38,200 Speaker 6: that people around the world are allowed to visit our 291 00:16:38,320 --> 00:16:40,720 Speaker 6: nation's capital, and they now have that trust. 292 00:16:41,520 --> 00:16:45,520 Speaker 1: This should never have become a political thing. 293 00:16:46,080 --> 00:16:46,680 Speaker 5: Why is it? 294 00:16:47,200 --> 00:16:51,680 Speaker 1: Because Democrats refuse to do what the law says when 295 00:16:51,680 --> 00:16:54,920 Speaker 1: it comes to law and order. They pick winners and losers. 296 00:16:55,280 --> 00:16:59,240 Speaker 1: If you're one of their favorites, you can commit a 297 00:16:59,360 --> 00:17:03,960 Speaker 1: crime and they don't care. The FBI Director Cash Mattel 298 00:17:04,240 --> 00:17:07,920 Speaker 1: and Deputy Director Dan Bongino, they are looking at this 299 00:17:08,480 --> 00:17:13,119 Speaker 1: and they are furious. It's unprecedented what we have witnessed 300 00:17:13,600 --> 00:17:18,439 Speaker 1: and now what we know. It is shocking to realize 301 00:17:18,840 --> 00:17:24,360 Speaker 1: just how bad the FBI was run under the prior administration. 302 00:17:25,320 --> 00:17:28,600 Speaker 1: The question that I think everyone should be asking is 303 00:17:28,800 --> 00:17:32,360 Speaker 1: number one, what did they know? And why did they 304 00:17:32,400 --> 00:17:36,960 Speaker 1: not pursue it? Why did they just give up? Why 305 00:17:36,960 --> 00:17:40,080 Speaker 1: did they just look the other way. I would even 306 00:17:40,240 --> 00:17:43,160 Speaker 1: take it a step further and say, why did they 307 00:17:43,320 --> 00:17:46,280 Speaker 1: help this guy stay free for so many years when 308 00:17:46,280 --> 00:17:50,120 Speaker 1: he was a threat to society, a threat to all 309 00:17:50,200 --> 00:17:51,120 Speaker 1: of us, by the ways, a. 310 00:17:51,040 --> 00:17:52,120 Speaker 5: Threat to Democrats. 311 00:17:52,720 --> 00:17:54,920 Speaker 1: When a bomb goes off, it doesn't say are your 312 00:17:54,920 --> 00:17:58,280 Speaker 1: Republican or Democrat? It doesn't say who did you vote for? 313 00:17:58,320 --> 00:18:00,879 Speaker 1: When a bomb goes off. Let's go back to the 314 00:18:00,960 --> 00:18:04,000 Speaker 1: Boston bombing and the marathon. They don't care. It doesn't 315 00:18:04,000 --> 00:18:07,520 Speaker 1: care if you're young. It doesn't care if you're old. 316 00:18:08,359 --> 00:18:12,159 Speaker 1: It doesn't care if you're black or white. It doesn't 317 00:18:12,200 --> 00:18:16,040 Speaker 1: care if you're Democrat. Or Republican. It doesn't care when 318 00:18:16,040 --> 00:18:20,960 Speaker 1: the bomb goes off. Innocent people die, and this administration, 319 00:18:21,240 --> 00:18:24,199 Speaker 1: for some reason, or I should say the prior administration, 320 00:18:24,240 --> 00:18:27,240 Speaker 1: the Biden administration, said no, no, we're going to play politics 321 00:18:27,280 --> 00:18:30,200 Speaker 1: because that's more important than anything else, and that is. 322 00:18:30,320 --> 00:18:31,800 Speaker 5: Sick as it gets. 323 00:18:33,520 --> 00:18:37,159 Speaker 1: We're getting more information about exactly what happened with the 324 00:18:37,240 --> 00:18:41,399 Speaker 1: DC pipe bomber and how he was finally arrested, and 325 00:18:41,440 --> 00:18:44,080 Speaker 1: we're also learning the shocking news that there was no 326 00:18:44,200 --> 00:18:47,320 Speaker 1: new tip that came in that caused the arrest to happen. 327 00:18:47,880 --> 00:18:52,239 Speaker 1: It was actually just information that hadn't been pursued or 328 00:18:52,280 --> 00:18:56,760 Speaker 1: information that hadn't been put together with evidence by the 329 00:18:56,880 --> 00:19:01,040 Speaker 1: prior administration and the FBI. What we now know is 330 00:19:01,080 --> 00:19:04,520 Speaker 1: there's a man that's been charged for planting explosive devices 331 00:19:05,000 --> 00:19:08,919 Speaker 1: outside the RNC and the DNC on January the fifth 332 00:19:08,960 --> 00:19:12,119 Speaker 1: of twenty twenty one. And the only reason why we 333 00:19:12,160 --> 00:19:15,239 Speaker 1: know who he is now is because Donald Trump and 334 00:19:15,280 --> 00:19:17,040 Speaker 1: the men and women who put in charge of the 335 00:19:17,119 --> 00:19:19,920 Speaker 1: FBI and the DOJ are now able to do their 336 00:19:20,040 --> 00:19:23,359 Speaker 1: jobs the right way, which is law enforcement work in 337 00:19:23,400 --> 00:19:27,560 Speaker 1: fighting crime. The Attorney General, Pam Bondi putting it this way. 338 00:19:28,000 --> 00:19:33,560 Speaker 7: Early this morning, Brian Cole Junior was arrested and charged 339 00:19:33,640 --> 00:19:37,359 Speaker 7: with placing the pipe bombs at the RNC and the 340 00:19:37,440 --> 00:19:42,160 Speaker 7: DNC on January fifth, twenty twenty one. He has been 341 00:19:42,240 --> 00:19:46,560 Speaker 7: charged with violating eighteen USC. Eight forty four, which is 342 00:19:46,800 --> 00:19:52,120 Speaker 7: use of an explosive device. This investigation is ongoing as 343 00:19:52,160 --> 00:19:56,080 Speaker 7: we speak, Search warrants are being executed, and there could 344 00:19:56,119 --> 00:20:00,240 Speaker 7: be more charges to come. Today's arrest happened because as 345 00:20:00,280 --> 00:20:05,720 Speaker 7: the Trump administration has made this case a priority, the 346 00:20:05,760 --> 00:20:10,320 Speaker 7: total lack of movement on this case in our nation's 347 00:20:10,359 --> 00:20:17,480 Speaker 7: capital undermined the public trust of our enforcement agencies. This 348 00:20:17,600 --> 00:20:23,960 Speaker 7: cold case languished for four years until Director Patel and 349 00:20:24,119 --> 00:20:30,800 Speaker 7: Deputy Director Bongino came to the FBI. The FBI, along 350 00:20:30,920 --> 00:20:34,560 Speaker 7: with US Attorney Piro and all of our prosecutors, have 351 00:20:34,760 --> 00:20:40,760 Speaker 7: worked tirelessly for months sifting through evidence that had been 352 00:20:41,080 --> 00:20:45,560 Speaker 7: sitting at the FBI with the Biden administration. 353 00:20:45,160 --> 00:20:47,360 Speaker 5: For four long years. 354 00:20:48,320 --> 00:20:50,960 Speaker 7: Let me be clear, there was no new tip, there 355 00:20:51,040 --> 00:20:56,359 Speaker 7: was no new witness, just good diligent police work and 356 00:20:56,480 --> 00:21:02,240 Speaker 7: prosecutorial work working as a team along with atf Capitol Police, 357 00:21:02,840 --> 00:21:08,600 Speaker 7: Metropolitan Police Department, and of course, the FBI, we are 358 00:21:08,640 --> 00:21:13,560 Speaker 7: working every day to restore the public's trust. We hope 359 00:21:13,600 --> 00:21:18,600 Speaker 7: that today is a significant step towards that progress. We'll 360 00:21:18,640 --> 00:21:23,080 Speaker 7: share more information when when we can and when it unfolds. 361 00:21:23,760 --> 00:21:28,360 Speaker 7: I cannot stress enough how hard Director Patel and Deputy 362 00:21:28,480 --> 00:21:33,000 Speaker 7: Director Bongino have worked for months to make our nation's 363 00:21:33,080 --> 00:21:36,240 Speaker 7: capital safer and to make our country safer. 364 00:21:37,560 --> 00:21:39,960 Speaker 1: You listen to Pam Bondi in what she had to 365 00:21:40,000 --> 00:21:44,080 Speaker 1: say there, it's truly incredible that there was no new 366 00:21:44,320 --> 00:21:49,639 Speaker 1: information that actually led to this arrest. Cash Battel saying 367 00:21:49,680 --> 00:21:52,560 Speaker 1: this as well on TV in an interview. 368 00:21:52,840 --> 00:21:56,639 Speaker 8: So there's been some uncertainty, you know, certainly online, so 369 00:21:56,680 --> 00:21:58,280 Speaker 8: I don't know what's real and what's not. Sometimes it's 370 00:21:58,280 --> 00:22:00,920 Speaker 8: a little hard to follow on and when these devices 371 00:22:00,920 --> 00:22:05,680 Speaker 8: were actually planted. Does this arrest crystallize the timeline at 372 00:22:05,720 --> 00:22:07,520 Speaker 8: all in terms of, you know, the sequence of events 373 00:22:07,560 --> 00:22:09,560 Speaker 8: that's sort of been up in the air again, you know, 374 00:22:09,680 --> 00:22:10,679 Speaker 8: especially online. 375 00:22:11,160 --> 00:22:12,000 Speaker 5: It absolutely does. 376 00:22:12,040 --> 00:22:13,439 Speaker 6: And I don't want to get ahead of the Department 377 00:22:13,480 --> 00:22:15,280 Speaker 6: of Justice, but you're going to see a crystal clear 378 00:22:15,359 --> 00:22:18,880 Speaker 6: timeline and picture in the next twenty four hours when 379 00:22:18,920 --> 00:22:21,520 Speaker 6: this individual makes his presentment. And first appearance in court, 380 00:22:21,720 --> 00:22:24,920 Speaker 6: and we proceed with the paperwork to his arraignment. That's 381 00:22:24,960 --> 00:22:27,000 Speaker 6: where key pieces of information are going to be made 382 00:22:27,000 --> 00:22:29,200 Speaker 6: public for the first time, because that's where key pieces 383 00:22:29,200 --> 00:22:32,520 Speaker 6: of information legally must be made public for the first time. 384 00:22:32,680 --> 00:22:34,560 Speaker 6: And we're not going to disrupt that process because that 385 00:22:34,600 --> 00:22:37,680 Speaker 6: would hurt the integrity of investigation and most importantly, would 386 00:22:37,720 --> 00:22:39,760 Speaker 6: hurt the integrity of the prosecution that's upcoming. 387 00:22:40,160 --> 00:22:42,879 Speaker 1: You listen to Cash Battel, and what he's saying is 388 00:22:43,119 --> 00:22:47,040 Speaker 1: you're getting transparency. He also made it clear and this 389 00:22:47,119 --> 00:22:49,760 Speaker 1: is a Cash Betel tweet. When Dan Bond, Geno and 390 00:22:49,840 --> 00:22:51,920 Speaker 1: I came to the FBI in March, the pipe bomb 391 00:22:52,000 --> 00:22:56,960 Speaker 1: investigation be installed for going on five years. We rebuilt 392 00:22:57,000 --> 00:23:01,640 Speaker 1: it from scratch, rerunning every lead, testing every piece of evidence, 393 00:23:02,000 --> 00:23:05,720 Speaker 1: bring in top experts, and deploying new technology to engineer 394 00:23:05,840 --> 00:23:10,600 Speaker 1: the break that finally nailed the suspect. Today is result 395 00:23:10,760 --> 00:23:14,639 Speaker 1: of that outstanding work. We didn't need new evidence, just 396 00:23:14,760 --> 00:23:17,960 Speaker 1: new leaders and a new President Trump willing to let 397 00:23:18,280 --> 00:23:24,520 Speaker 1: good cops be cops. This goes exactly back to that principle. 398 00:23:25,040 --> 00:23:28,520 Speaker 1: The President of United States of America chose people to 399 00:23:28,600 --> 00:23:33,280 Speaker 1: put in positions of power that understand exactly what they 400 00:23:33,359 --> 00:23:36,440 Speaker 1: needed to do, which was go after the bad guys, 401 00:23:36,800 --> 00:23:40,600 Speaker 1: arrest them, and make sure that men and women are safe. 402 00:23:40,760 --> 00:23:44,679 Speaker 1: And finally, even Judge Janine said the DC pipe bomber 403 00:23:45,000 --> 00:23:48,320 Speaker 1: was quiet. She also revealed insight into his low key 404 00:23:48,400 --> 00:23:52,800 Speaker 1: personal life, saying, federal authorities say they found bomb making 405 00:23:52,840 --> 00:23:57,679 Speaker 1: materials in the suspect's home. The US Attorney for the 406 00:23:57,720 --> 00:24:01,919 Speaker 1: District of Columbia, Judge Janine revealing all of this after 407 00:24:02,240 --> 00:24:06,080 Speaker 1: it was announced the indictment. Federal authorities arresting that thirty 408 00:24:06,119 --> 00:24:10,320 Speaker 1: year old of Virginia Thursday morning, And yet again she 409 00:24:10,480 --> 00:24:13,960 Speaker 1: re emphasized this important point that this was after a 410 00:24:14,000 --> 00:24:18,200 Speaker 1: nearly five year long pause in essence of the investigation, 411 00:24:18,720 --> 00:24:23,480 Speaker 1: involving millions of pieces of data. Now we have him, 412 00:24:23,720 --> 00:24:26,320 Speaker 1: and Americans can sleep a little better knowing that the 413 00:24:26,400 --> 00:24:31,679 Speaker 1: DC Pipe Bomber is behind bars.

The Supreme 432 00:25:45,960 --> 00:25:50,639 Speaker 1: Court handing Donald Trump a massive victory when it comes 433 00:25:50,640 --> 00:25:56,120 Speaker 1: to redistricting in Texas, a sweeping legal and political victory 434 00:25:56,160 --> 00:26:00,439 Speaker 1: with big implications for the twenty twenty six midterms and 435 00:26:00,480 --> 00:26:04,800 Speaker 1: the twenty twenty eight presidential election cycle. Now the left 436 00:26:05,080 --> 00:26:08,840 Speaker 1: lost their minds over what Texas was doing with redistricting, 437 00:26:09,320 --> 00:26:11,280 Speaker 1: and they decided to sue. 438 00:26:11,760 --> 00:26:12,399 Speaker 5: Well, guess what. 439 00:26:12,840 --> 00:26:16,280 Speaker 1: The Supreme Court delivered a significant victory for not only 440 00:26:16,359 --> 00:26:19,159 Speaker 1: the president of the United States of America, but also 441 00:26:19,359 --> 00:26:24,679 Speaker 1: for states rights, ruling to affirm the Texas congressional redistricting map. 442 00:26:25,160 --> 00:26:30,480 Speaker 1: The decision effectively upholds the state's current district lines, rejecting 443 00:26:30,600 --> 00:26:34,359 Speaker 1: efforts to overturn them by the radical left, and giving 444 00:26:34,440 --> 00:26:39,439 Speaker 1: Republicans a clear path to maintain and potentially even expand 445 00:26:39,920 --> 00:26:43,080 Speaker 1: their political advantage in one of the nation's largest and 446 00:26:43,240 --> 00:26:48,480 Speaker 1: fastest growing states, which is extremely important for controlling Congress 447 00:26:48,520 --> 00:26:51,399 Speaker 1: and also the White House. Let me talk to you 448 00:26:51,440 --> 00:26:54,920 Speaker 1: about the takeaways. Number one, Not only was this a 449 00:26:55,000 --> 00:26:58,800 Speaker 1: massive win for Trump in the election strategy, but the 450 00:26:58,960 --> 00:27:02,399 Speaker 1: ruling validate it's the same redistricting principles that Trump and 451 00:27:02,440 --> 00:27:06,840 Speaker 1: the GOP leaders have defended for years, that state sovereignty, 452 00:27:07,280 --> 00:27:13,440 Speaker 1: constitutional authority, and legislature's power to draw maps without federal interference. 453 00:27:14,160 --> 00:27:18,840 Speaker 1: The second victory here was GOP's strength in the critical 454 00:27:19,040 --> 00:27:23,880 Speaker 1: battleground for the country. The upheld map solidifies not only 455 00:27:23,920 --> 00:27:28,440 Speaker 1: Republican advantages in multiple key districts, protecting the gains that 456 00:27:28,440 --> 00:27:30,879 Speaker 1: have been made under President Trump's leadership in san the 457 00:27:30,920 --> 00:27:35,840 Speaker 1: stage for even stronger conservative performance In twenty twenty six 458 00:27:36,200 --> 00:27:40,040 Speaker 1: and twenty twenty eight, the Court rejected the challenge that 459 00:27:40,119 --> 00:27:44,320 Speaker 1: could have undone years of GOP progress. By refusing to 460 00:27:44,320 --> 00:27:47,359 Speaker 1: strite down the Texas Map, the court shut down a 461 00:27:47,359 --> 00:27:51,720 Speaker 1: major legal challenge that could have unraveled Republican leaning districts 462 00:27:51,760 --> 00:27:56,879 Speaker 1: across the state. Now this ensures political stability and predictability 463 00:27:56,880 --> 00:28:01,040 Speaker 1: and continuity for the next several election cycles. It also 464 00:28:01,160 --> 00:28:05,439 Speaker 1: reinforces the constitutional vision the Trumpet champion and what he 465 00:28:05,560 --> 00:28:10,040 Speaker 1: ran on. The majority opinion signal strong support for the 466 00:28:10,080 --> 00:28:15,640 Speaker 1: constitutional framework Conservatives have been defending states, not Washington bureaucrats 467 00:28:15,720 --> 00:28:20,720 Speaker 1: or activist groups control the redistricting. It's also just a 468 00:28:20,840 --> 00:28:25,119 Speaker 1: huge momentum boost for Texas Republicans. With the map locked in, 469 00:28:25,240 --> 00:28:30,239 Speaker 1: Republican tenets can now run confidently and aggressively, knowing the 470 00:28:30,280 --> 00:28:34,199 Speaker 1: courts will not be used to undermine their districts. This 471 00:28:34,359 --> 00:28:37,200 Speaker 1: ruling effectively gives a GOP a green light to build 472 00:28:37,240 --> 00:28:41,720 Speaker 1: even bigger majorities. And then there's the political impact. Not 473 00:28:41,760 --> 00:28:45,120 Speaker 1: only does the strengthen Trump's national influence, but it also 474 00:28:45,200 --> 00:28:49,680 Speaker 1: provides again for his judicial legacy in shaping the country. 475 00:28:50,160 --> 00:28:54,360 Speaker 1: It also secures Texas as a GOP fortress, which is 476 00:28:54,440 --> 00:28:58,360 Speaker 1: extremely important when it comes to presidential election and making 477 00:28:58,440 --> 00:29:03,000 Speaker 1: Democrats pick up efforts even harder than before. It also 478 00:29:03,040 --> 00:29:07,000 Speaker 1: boosts fundraising and kennet recruitment since the districts are now 479 00:29:07,160 --> 00:29:11,560 Speaker 1: stable and also favorable. It eliminates uncertainty that could have 480 00:29:11,600 --> 00:29:15,200 Speaker 1: disrupted campaigns heading into the midterms as well that was 481 00:29:15,280 --> 00:29:19,480 Speaker 1: part of the Democratic strategy of chaos, and it affirms 482 00:29:19,560 --> 00:29:24,600 Speaker 1: conservative legal arguments on separation of powers and states' rights. 483 00:29:25,160 --> 00:29:27,640 Speaker 1: The bottom line is the Supreme Court didn't just hand 484 00:29:27,680 --> 00:29:30,920 Speaker 1: Texas Republicans a win. It delivered one of the most 485 00:29:31,040 --> 00:29:37,080 Speaker 1: consequential redistricting victories of the decade, reinforcing President Trump's long 486 00:29:37,160 --> 00:29:42,480 Speaker 1: term political strategy and submitting Conservatives control in the country's 487 00:29:42,520 --> 00:29:46,880 Speaker 1: most important red state. This is a massive victory for 488 00:29:47,000 --> 00:29:51,000 Speaker 1: President Trump and for the rule of law and states rights. 489 00:29:51,920 --> 00:29:54,040 Speaker 1: Don't forget to share this podcast, by the way, with 490 00:29:54,080 --> 00:29:56,480 Speaker 1: your family and your friends on social media wherever you 491 00:29:56,520 --> 00:29:59,600 Speaker 1: can hit that subscribe or auto download button and I'll 492 00:29:59,600 --> 00:30:01,760 Speaker 1: talk to you again tomorrow.
