Transcript

00:00:00.300 Police arrest suspect in D.C. pipe-bomb case after five-year investigation that they've been talking about.
00:00:08.440 So, remember when this happened, the timing of it, right?
00:00:11.560 So, people have forgotten about it.
00:00:14.020 You know, some haven't forgotten about it.
00:00:16.520 Some have. Some have kind of moved on because we've had so many different stories that we have going on here.
00:00:21.080 A suspect who allegedly planted pipe-bomb blocks from U.S. Capitol on January 5, 2021, is now federal custody after a nearly five-year investigation.
00:00:31.980 Law enforcement sources told Fox News Digital on Thursday video footage released by the FBI showed an unidentified person placing the pipe-bombs near two headquarters more than 16 hours before law enforcement found them.
00:00:46.140 The suspect was seen wearing a gray hoodie, Nike Air Max SpeedTurf sneakers, a mask, glasses, and gloves, but the person's identity had long been unknown.
00:00:55.940 The initial investigation had shown in under two months, by the end of February 2020, a possible result of credible leads drying up at the time.
00:01:05.820 According to a congressional report, authorities discovered the two-pipe bombs near the Republican and Democrat National Committee headquarters
00:01:12.560 around the same time that thousands of protesters a few blocks away began to descend on the Capitol over 2020 elections.
00:01:19.560 The bombs were described as visible and could have exploded at any time, according to the FBI.
00:01:24.840 The suspect arrest comes after a renewed push by the FBI to solve the case, including the release of new video footage and a $500,000 reward for information leading to the arrest and conviction of the person responsible.
00:01:36.720 Go ahead, Rob.
00:01:37.160 This was the work of multiple agencies working together.
00:01:42.960 This morning's operation was carried out safely and successfully.
00:01:46.920 We know that there are so many issues when you're issuing search warrants.
00:01:51.980 Dangerous things can happen.
00:01:53.420 And this was carried out safely and securely thanks to all of the people standing around me.
00:01:58.760 They have worked tirelessly on this.
00:02:00.860 Today's arrest happened because the Trump administration has made this case a priority.
00:02:05.840 The total lack of movement on this case in our nation's capital undermined the public trust of our enforcement agencies.
00:02:15.720 This cold case languished for four years until Director Patel and Deputy Director Bongino came to the FBI.
00:02:24.720 The FBI, along with U.S. Attorney Pirro and all of our prosecutors, have worked tirelessly for months sifting through evidence that had been sitting at the FBI with the Biden administration for four long years.
00:02:40.860 Let me be clear.
00:02:41.600 There was no new tip.
00:02:42.940 There was no new witness.
00:02:44.320 So they've known this entire time.
00:02:45.660 Just good, diligent police work.
00:02:47.260 Of course they did.
00:02:47.280 And they didn't want to report it.
00:02:48.260 Of course not.
00:02:49.080 What clip do you want to show me with the white man?
00:02:51.720 Okay, so guys, we talked about this yesterday, Pat, with our friend that was here yesterday.
00:02:56.740 Guys, the entire movement of why I think America started waking up is the moment that Jim Acosta was talking crap to the president in 2016.
00:03:06.940 And he said, I'm not going to give you any questions.
00:03:09.140 You're fake news.
00:03:10.040 And that moment, you'd think CNN would realize, after all the firing, Pat, after losing all the money, Jake Tapper, another guy who acted like he didn't know about Biden's mental decline, writes the book, blaming everybody.
00:03:22.260 You can't make this up.
00:03:23.340 I had to check this five times to make sure it wasn't AI.
00:03:25.840 Look at him describing the guy, Brian Cole Jr., as what?
00:03:30.640 Go ahead, Rob.
00:03:31.440 This is a joke.
00:03:31.980 Welcome to the lead.
00:03:32.540 I'm Jake Tapper.
00:03:32.980 This is when?
00:03:33.440 Yesterday.
00:03:33.840 After nearly five years of investigation, the FBI finally announced that they had arrested a suspect, a suspect accused of planting pipe bombs near the Republican and Democratic National Committee headquarters the night before the January 6, 2021 Capitol attack.
00:03:49.260 Brian Cole Jr., a 30-year-old white man from the DC suburbs, is charged with transporting an explosive...
00:03:55.480 This is a joke, though.
00:03:56.660 No, it's not.
00:03:57.420 That's the white guy right there.
00:03:58.460 And malicious destruction by means of explosions.
00:04:01.420 The white guy.
00:04:01.960 That's the white guy right there.
00:04:02.940 Go back again, Rob.
00:04:03.580 Go back again, like when he says that.
00:04:04.960 Go back a little bit.
00:04:05.800 Yeah, five seconds right there.
00:04:07.200 Go ahead.
00:04:07.960 Attack.
00:04:08.880 Brian Cole Jr., a 30-year-old white man from the DC suburbs, is charged with transporting an explosive device in interstate commerce and with malicious destruction by means of explosions.
00:04:21.180 CNN observed local and federal law enforcement outside his home.
00:04:23.920 You can't stop it, Rob.
00:04:24.400 Now, let me just give you a little back story about this.
00:04:27.380 And again, they're saying it is who he is.
00:04:29.600 I don't know how tall this guy is, the Brian Cole, but the videos, Pat, if you see it, it's a 5'7".
00:04:35.160 That's why it looked kind of weird.
00:04:37.260 But I don't know how tall this guy is.
00:04:38.560 We're going to find out.
00:04:39.460 But his dad owns Statewide Bonding, Inc., Virginia-based immigration bail bond company.
00:04:45.220 Think about this.
00:04:45.940 The family-built business, they were built on freeing illegal immigrants from ICE custody.
00:04:50.540 And that same business sued the prior administration's DHS in 2019 over discrimination.
00:04:56.660 Okay?
00:04:57.100 And think about this.
00:04:58.560 This makes sense, if this is him, why they held it for four years.
00:05:03.520 He's a young black kid, guy, who was anti-Trump.
00:05:07.100 All right?
00:05:07.420 He sued Trump.
00:05:08.360 He sued ICE.
00:05:09.320 He sued the DHS.
00:05:10.280 He pushed radical justice causes and worked at the family bond place.
00:05:15.200 And think about it.
00:05:16.460 They didn't lose him, Tom.
00:05:17.800 They had receipts.
00:05:19.100 They had his license plate number.
00:05:20.880 They had phone data.
00:05:22.120 They had the footage.
00:05:23.080 They knew exactly who he was.
00:05:24.620 They could have exposed him.
00:05:25.900 But the narrative was, let's put something to distract all law enforcement.
00:05:30.280 Because, Pat, because of this, all law enforcement was diverted from January 6th.
00:05:34.740 And they were worrying about this guy.
00:05:36.400 They were worrying about this white supremacist, white guy from the suburbs, as Jake Tapper says it.
00:05:41.280 And it was all on purpose.
00:05:42.660 Okay?
00:05:43.180 And I genuinely, this is my opinion, Christopher Wray, who was in charge of the FBI, Tommy, needs to be investigated, just like Jim Comey.
00:05:50.540 Agreed.
00:05:50.800 All right?
00:05:51.000 He had 13% of the FBI going after January 6th cases.
00:05:56.040 That's 5,000 out of 38,000 people hunting grandmothers, grandfathers, people that weren't even in Washington that day.
00:06:04.000 Including over getting over petabytes of information where they help identify people who are wearing winter gear and covered up by the way they walked and their anticipated height.
00:06:13.540 So they took that action of people that were on the thing.
00:06:17.260 But they had all sorts of street footage.
00:06:19.520 And they couldn't find this guy for five years.
00:06:21.060 Yeah.
00:06:21.380 For five years.
00:06:22.660 And then Cashman.
00:06:23.040 I just want to make sure I understood.
00:06:24.200 No, you get it.
00:06:25.220 And then it's weird that they come in and they find him like that.
00:06:28.240 It's the narrative.
00:06:29.100 January 6th was the setup from the beginning.
00:06:31.740 And if you think about it, the pipe bombs didn't go off because then they know they'd be in a world of crap.
00:06:36.880 But look at how this FBI.
00:06:38.520 And I want people to understand.
00:06:39.880 Cash Patel, Pam Bondi, Dan Bondi and all these people.
00:06:42.520 Good job.
00:06:43.060 They're doing something.
00:06:43.520 We have criticized them in the past.
00:06:44.820 But think about all the agents, Tom, that are still in the FBI that still have that hate.
00:06:49.960 That still would do the color revolution that we keep talking about.
00:06:53.740 Just because they're in charge doesn't mean anything.
00:06:55.580 Those people are still involved, just like the Lisa Pages, just like the freaking Peter Strzok.
00:06:59.780 There's like five stories here you're covering.
00:07:01.440 First, you have the CNN.
00:07:03.500 By the way, this is CNN's habit, Pat.
00:07:05.780 Remember George Zimmerman and Trayvon Martin and George Zimmerman, you know, the two networks that took the most heat for calling him a white Hispanic.
00:07:14.080 Do you remember that?
00:07:14.780 George Zimmerman, the white Hispanic that gunned down Trayvon Martin.
00:07:19.400 No, they didn't wrestle on the ground.
00:07:20.680 He wasn't trying to get him.
00:07:21.520 He wasn't shot that way.
00:07:22.120 He gunned him down, right?
00:07:23.720 And George Zimmerman was a white Hispanic.
00:07:26.660 And CNN, ladies and gentlemen, CNN, Jake Tapper, and NBC took the most hit for using, which one coined it, uncertain, but they both used it to death.
00:07:36.280 And now they're using this.
00:07:37.460 By the way, do you know who's responsible for the Ukraine war?
00:07:41.140 A white Russian named Vladimir Putin.
00:07:44.140 No, no, it's coming, right?
00:07:46.340 Everything's quite fair.
00:07:47.140 They're showing you what they're going to do.
00:07:48.780 That's one story.
00:07:49.940 Now you have the cover up.
00:07:50.960 Now you have petabytes of information, but they choose not to look at it until now.
00:07:54.460 And then they finally look at this guy.
00:07:56.460 This is incredible.
00:07:57.460 And you know why, Tom?
00:07:58.080 If you think about it, guys, Trump wasn't supposed to win.
00:08:01.640 Their plan, their entire plan, this wasn't supposed to come to pass.
00:08:05.840 Their plan was jail him, destroy him.
00:08:08.860 That didn't work.
00:08:09.960 Shoot him in the freaking head.
00:08:11.100 Didn't work because they hire people that have shitty aim.
00:08:14.180 And we are where we are.
00:08:15.540 And I mean, and Tom, I get it because I'm impatient.
00:08:17.740 I have to work on my patience.
00:08:19.100 I want it faster.
00:08:20.380 I have the hope.
00:08:21.480 I have the faith.
00:08:22.340 But come on.
00:08:23.260 Like the Comey, Comey and Tish James, they just got their cases, what, kind of dismissed.
00:08:28.380 But they're going to keep going back after them.
00:08:29.920 Because I'm telling you.
00:08:30.680 There was another dismissal yesterday.
00:08:31.560 Yeah, this is, this is, this is, this is huge.
00:08:33.920 This is huge.
00:08:34.640 And it exposes them.
00:08:36.080 This, this investigation took five years?
00:08:38.820 No, no, Adam.
00:08:39.420 This isn't, well, for them, for Castro Tell, less than a year.
00:08:42.260 Less than a year to find the guy that they buried the story.
00:08:44.340 Because you're tracking the story a little bit more than me.
00:08:45.820 Are you saying that under the Biden administration, they just, this guy was just walking around,
00:08:49.860 they did nothing?
00:08:50.600 Nothing, Adam, nothing.
00:08:52.160 They knew where he was.
00:08:53.380 My opinion, it's, you can't be that stupid.
00:08:56.140 Adam, you can't be that stupid.
00:08:56.960 They lost the case on November 10th, 2020.
00:08:59.740 They lost the case.
00:09:00.860 Like, this is humiliation for the FBI.
00:09:03.380 We'll put the files in Biden's garage.
00:09:05.080 Even he'll forget about it.
00:09:06.280 Yeah, exactly.
00:09:06.860 But they found the pipe bombs next to the RNC and the DNC.
00:09:10.920 So this guy wasn't, he was just sowing chaos?
00:09:13.160 Well, so he wasn't exactly aligned with your party, huh?
00:09:14.900 But here's the thing.
00:09:15.680 What was, what was his motive?
00:09:17.180 To distract, Adam, when you have bombs in Washington, you know how many cops and everybody's distracted
00:09:23.500 looking that way?
00:09:24.260 So the, the January 6th mayhem can go exactly the way that they want it.
00:09:28.180 And Nancy Pelosi could say, well, I don't want the National Guard.
00:09:30.940 It's all, guys, and for how many years?
00:09:33.720 It's been five years, and it was, oh my God, the biggest threat to democracy.
00:09:37.200 We even had that, that maniac.
00:09:38.820 Who was the guy?
00:09:41.120 The guy that I, Steve Schmidt.
00:09:43.020 Oh, you're born?
00:09:43.800 January 6th was worse than 9-11.
00:09:45.860 Shut up.
00:09:46.440 That's the narrative that they wanted to push with the Lincoln Project.
00:09:48.780 This is a wild thing.
00:09:48.980 This is a joke.
00:09:50.020 It was a joke.
00:09:50.880 They provoked those people, and this is where we are today.
00:09:53.520 This sort of has intel, sniffs of intel, doesn't it?
00:09:56.420 The pipe bombs are put at two locations, number one.
00:09:59.260 And number two, they said, well, those pipe bombs were viable.
00:10:02.680 It was real explosives.
00:10:03.740 It could have been done.
00:10:04.480 And they won't tell us, though, was there a timer in it?
00:10:07.980 Was the timer not set properly?
00:10:09.640 Was this appeared to be professionally designed?
00:10:12.060 The FBI, believe it or not, has a database on all the types of bombs that are used because
00:10:16.220 they know which groups circulate documents to each other as on the how-tos.
00:10:20.600 There's how-tos out there among these groups.
00:10:22.460 And I was reading last night that says, the FBI needs to come out and tell us, what was
00:10:26.540 the design of the bombs?
00:10:27.820 What do you suspect was the source?
00:10:29.960 Because they can tell you, oh, those Middle East guys did it that way.
00:10:32.420 These guys do it that way.
00:10:33.560 All they say, no, they were viable bombs, but they didn't go off.
00:10:36.020 Why didn't they go off?
00:10:36.700 And you're a professional bomb expert opinion.
00:10:39.480 Tom, those are important details.
00:10:41.100 I just want to understand one thing.
00:10:42.400 What was his motive?
00:10:43.560 Why is he doing this?
00:10:44.740 Who was paying him?
00:10:45.460 What was his motivation?
00:10:46.360 What is he looking to do?
00:10:47.440 What team is he on?
00:10:48.220 That's a great question.
00:10:48.980 But if you think about it, if you had to assume, why would he be on the Republican?
00:10:53.320 He's anti-Trump, anti-this, loves Antifa, or whatever the hell, all these facts.
00:10:59.340 I'm telling you right now, you've got to give them credit.
00:11:02.480 They are so good because it almost worked.
00:11:04.680 By the way, Rob, what's the story about if it does work, Kamala Harris was by the DNC?
00:11:11.200 Is that the story?
00:11:12.080 If you want to maybe tell us a little bit about that?
00:11:13.980 Yeah.
00:11:14.100 In fact, she was reportedly at the DNC headquarters the morning of January 6th.
00:11:19.980 Apparently, she was in the vicinity of where if these explosive devices had gone off, she
00:11:24.360 would have been injured or worse.
00:11:25.900 They actually asked Pam Bondi about that yesterday because you never hear the vice president-elect
00:11:32.160 was almost assassinated in Washington, D.C. on January 6th.
00:11:35.620 You never hear that narrative, but it almost happened.
00:11:38.040 Pam Bondi was asked about that yesterday.
00:11:39.580 Oh, this is it?
00:11:40.240 Yep.
00:11:40.500 Go for it.
00:11:40.980 So, any theory on why Kamala Harris is never mentioned coming within 20 feet of being
00:11:45.760 assassinated and any news on why her Secret Service team took so long to find this bomb
00:11:50.360 at the DNC?
00:11:51.780 No, but what I will tell you is that evidence has been sitting there collecting dust.
00:11:59.300 This wasn't a new tip.
00:12:01.000 It wasn't some new evidence.
00:12:02.320 It was the hard work of President Trump's administration, Deputy Director Bongino and Director Patel.
00:12:10.940 I watched them from day one come in here and say, we are going to solve this crime.
00:12:16.860 And they did, working hand-in-hand with U.S. Attorney Pirro and all of our great attorneys.
00:12:22.780 And I hope during the investigation, he actually has the Brian guy to say, who did it?
00:12:28.880 Who told you?
00:12:29.620 Because if you really think about it, the insurrection act that they were going to try to use to not
00:12:33.720 let the president run again, this was the main thing that put it over the hump.
00:12:36.880 Pat, like, you guys had white supremacist pipe bombs?
00:12:40.200 Oh, he can't be the president.
00:12:41.900 And look at how...
00:12:42.600 If the Biden administration knew about it, Pat, wouldn't they have, like, invented phrases
00:12:46.020 like, insurrectionists and potential assassins?
00:12:49.600 Exactly.
00:12:49.920 Wouldn't they have, like, invented that and tagged that onto it if there was, like, a half
00:12:54.240 a block possibility that Kamala could have been injured or worse?
00:12:57.780 What I want to know is, okay, so...
00:12:59.340 That seems odd to me.
00:13:00.160 So now that they're showing us that we know who this white man was, okay, that did what he did.
00:13:05.840 Cracker.
00:13:06.200 Okay, so now tell us why he did that, okay?
00:13:10.340 Take it a step ahead and tell us why he did that so the American people can find out.
00:13:15.200 Because if this was sitting there, find out.
00:13:17.360 Have you interviewed him?
00:13:18.160 Is he still around, by the way?
00:13:19.100 Is he dead?
00:13:19.560 Is he alive?
00:13:20.180 Is he...
00:13:20.300 He's alive.
00:13:20.980 He's arrested.
00:13:21.740 Take it into custody.
00:13:22.400 Okay, he's in custody.
00:13:23.880 That's the whole thing.
00:13:24.500 Patrick, is he bad, too?
00:13:25.400 Not sure.
00:13:25.760 Look at the...
00:13:26.320 He lives in a cul-de-sac.
00:13:27.720 Yeah, you live in a cul-de-sac, bro?
00:13:29.520 You're doing well.
00:13:30.220 Okay, I'm in the nicest house at the end of the street.
00:13:31.320 You've got to find out why he did it, who he's connected to, messages, emails, exchanges.
00:13:37.780 You can find...
00:13:38.840 You should be able to find out, you know, even the best criminals out there.
00:13:43.600 You should be able to find out what the motive behind what they were doing.
00:13:45.900 Anyways, I want to get to the next story with us.
00:13:47.600 If you want to give your final thoughts, we'll go to the next story.
00:13:49.260 Don't look now, but it seems like the Trump administration, all these guys, are very much aligned and unified.
00:13:56.780 Epstein thing aside, we're the cash for talent, Pam Bondi, and Dan Bongino, we're all catching beef.
00:14:01.060 Oh, my God, what's going on?
00:14:02.280 Seems like everybody's falling in line right now.
00:14:04.220 That's all I'm saying.
00:14:05.160 Unified on this topic?
00:14:06.400 Just in general.
00:14:07.580 No, I don't...
00:14:08.340 It seems like they're a little bit more unified...
00:14:09.800 I don't know.
00:14:10.260 ...than the gaslighting that was going on...
00:14:11.940 I don't think so.
00:14:13.200 I don't think so.
00:14:13.780 You don't think so?
00:14:14.240 They're staying there together.
00:14:15.640 No, no, no.
00:14:16.280 Well, that's the cash...
00:14:16.800 Who is aligned?
00:14:17.820 The Bongino...
00:14:18.260 Trump administration.
00:14:19.780 Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.
00:14:21.000 On this issue, sure.
00:14:22.120 And by the way, to be honest with you, I think Bondi is trying to keep her job.
00:14:28.320 Yeah.
00:14:28.580 Okay?
00:14:28.960 I think that's what she's trying to do.
00:14:30.620 You know, Bondi's trying to keep her job, and she has to have some victories.
00:14:34.500 And there's been a lot of, you know, fumbles and the way things were handled, a lot of mishandling
00:14:40.100 going on there.
00:14:41.720 And they're trying to redo and reframe the reputation and come out and get some stuff out there.
00:14:47.980 And this is a good beginning of what things could take place, hopefully, if they continue
00:14:52.200 going.
